Genshin Impact: Descend to Teyvat Up Pool

Chapter 12: Kaia the Trickster

The next day, Le Ran arrived at the Knights Templar early and handed the token to the person who received him.

The man took a look at the token and then looked at Le Ran and asked.

"Mr. Le Ran, our head chef has asked for leave. Captain Kaia recommends you to take over as the head chef temporarily. What do you think, Mr. Le Ran?"

Sure enough, the black-skinned one-eyed man is not a good person.

"I could be the head chef, but I'm only here as a part-timer and won't be here for long."

The receptionist spoke quickly.

“It’s okay, Mr. Le. The main reason is that the chef is old and hasn’t had a rest for a long time, so he asked for leave to rest for a while.

He can come back anytime, and during the time you are acting as chef, the commission fee will increase tenfold."

After hearing that the commission fee increased tenfold, Le Ran nodded in satisfaction.

"Then let's go!"

"Okay, Mr. Le, please follow me."

When I came to the kitchen from yesterday, I saw a group of chefs busying themselves with their work. Le Ran felt embarrassed to just stand by and watch.

While controlling the heat and correcting the mistakes of the chefs, Le Ran gradually discovered that most of these chefs were apprentices.

And because of the overall environment in Mond, no matter how much work there is, these apprentices always give people a feeling of slacking off.

From time to time, some problems would arise and be left to Le Ran to deal with.

Cooking this big pot meal is both time-consuming and laborious.

At first, Le Ran thought that the chef's leave was caused by Kaiya's fault. Now it seems that if he were to be the chef for a long time, he would have run away long ago.

At this time, a fiery red figure ran out from the door, looked around, and then went straight to Le Ran.

"Brother Leran, Keli wants to eat..."

As soon as Keli ran to Leran's side, she saw that Leran looked half dead and swallowed the word "fish" back.

"Brother Le Ran is tired, Ke Li will come back later."

Seeing Keli turning away with a look of disappointment, Le Ran suddenly felt a surge of strength in his body and he stood up. His face flushed visibly, as if he was having a last burst of energy.

"Keli, you don't have to leave. It's just a fish. Wait for your brother Le Ran to cook it for you."

As he spoke, Le Ran took out the secret seasoning he had prepared last night.

"This is the secret seasoning that Brother Le Ran prepared last night, specially for Ke Li."

At this time, a not-so-pleasant black figure appeared next to Klee.

"Hey! Brother Le Ran! Is your work going well?"

Hearing this voice, he was furious.

"How dare you say that? I'm just here as a part-time kitchen helper. Why did you get rid of the chef?"

Upon hearing this, Kaia quickly gave a French military salute.

"Don't talk nonsense. I got rid of the chef. He's old and hasn't had a rest in a long time. I saw that you're such a good cook, so I let the old man have a rest!"

"And then you, a fellow with a black skin and an even blacker heart, tricked me into this!"

Kaiya was choked by Le Ran's words, and his already dark face became even more matte.

"Alright, alright! Don't you still have to cook fish for Klee? Klee didn't even have breakfast waiting for you to cook the fish. Go and make the fish."

When Le Ran heard this, he was immediately heartbroken. He glared at Kaia and hurried to cook for Keli.

Two minutes later, Le Ran brought a bowl of soup and placed it in front of Ke Li.

When Keli saw that it was not the fish she had imagined, she immediately looked aggrieved.

Le Ran couldn't stand this and spoke quickly.

"Keli, drink the soup first. You are not allowed to skip breakfast from now on. The fish is still stewing in the pot and will be here soon."

Seeing that Klee started to drink the soup reluctantly, Le Ran turned around and looked at Kaiya who was watching the fun nearby and scolded him.

"You guys are just looking after your child like that! Don't you know that a child of this age is still growing and sometimes can't control how much he eats."

Seeing Klee slurping the soup, she knew that the child was really hungry, and she glared at Kaeya unhappily.

"If you get sick from eating, let Keli's parents know and see if she'll give you trouble."

The speaker may not have intended it, but the listener may have taken it to heart. Kaia thought of Ms. Alice's "great achievements" and imagined the scene of Alice coming to cause trouble.

Kaiya's entire body turned several shades whiter, and he was about to leave Africa and enter Europe.

Looking at Kaiya's nervous expression, Le Ran nodded with satisfaction.

"It's good that you know you're wrong. Pay more attention to your children next time. If something really happens, it will be too late for you to regret it!"

At this moment, Le Ran's face changed and he quickly turned around and ran towards the stove.

"Ouch, my fish."

A few minutes later, seeing the cute look of Klee eating the boneless braised fish, Le Ran felt like he was melting.

At this moment, a black face suddenly blocked Le Ran's sight, making Le Ran's face turn dark as well.

"It's okay, just stay away. It's scary to come out in broad daylight."

Kaiya didn't care about the sarcasm in Leran's words and licked his face.

"Le Ran, my share, at least I got an omelet yesterday!"

This extremely shameless declaration made Le Ran's face even darker.

"There are no omelets, but there is a basket of eggshells left that was just thrown away. You can still find them if you go to the garbage dump now."

Kaiya ignored the sarcasm in Le Ran's mouth and came close to him shamelessly.

"Oh, don't be so heartless. Teach me some snacks to go with the wine. Didn't you say you wanted to do business?"

"How about I introduce you to a local rich man and ask him to invest in you?"

Le Ran paused and looked at Kaia with suspicion.

"Can you be so kind?"

Kaiya hugged Le Ran's shoulders.

"What you said means that we have confidence in you! How about just one sentence?"

Le Ran pondered for a moment, his main purpose of making money was for the raw stones.

But purchasing raw stones is not something that can be done by one person alone, and it is obviously easier to do it with a local.

"Okay! Kaiya, remember what you said. I may not be able to beat you, but I have plenty of ways to play tricks on you. If you dare to fool me! Humph!"

For some reason, when Kaiya heard the two hums, his hair stood on end and he had an indescribable feeling.

"You are being too polite, how can I fool you?"

Kaiya said as he put his arm around Leran's shoulders and the two of them came to the stove.

Seeing Kaiya's sincere attitude, Le Ran began to teach.

"The appetizers must be heavy, fried food is the first choice, followed by braised food..."

After working for a long time, Le Ran took out ten side dishes made from Teyvat ingredients. After finishing these, Le Ran sighed.

"It's just that there are no peanuts in Teyvat. If there were peanuts, a dish of fried peanuts would be better than all these fancy things."

Kaiya was eating happily and his ears perked up when he heard this.

"What about peanuts? Are they so delicious?"

Le Ran glanced at Kaia with disdain.

"This is our country, and it's chosen by hundreds of millions of drinkers. How can it be fake? At least half of the people drink with peanuts!"

Looking at the delicious side dishes in front of him, Kaia swallowed his saliva.

"I really wish I could try what fried peanuts taste like."

Le Ran thought of his wishing well which had only been opened twice and shook his head.

"You'll have to wait a while, so you better learn these techniques."
