While Juulius was even more eager because he just wanted to see orks getting killed... no biggie here, just as simple as that, nothing more and nothing less.
Yvraine was mildly surprised hearing this, but even her father always talked about the 10th Floor as the "Graveyard of Empires", not only due to the presence of the Korias Empire but also because a good number of Interdimensional Empires and factions were buried in the 10th Floor either thanks to the Arrakian sandworms or other reason.
Nevertheless, the 10th Floor of the Tower, due to its conditions, was not taken lightly. Meanwhile, she was pondering over the things; Samiel was enjoying her warmth as he was hugging her closely and savoring every second of it.
For him, the moments like this were the ones that were most precious and most valuable out of all of them. In regard to that, Samiel was the person who carved affection even though he would never admit that openly and he greatly enjoyed cuddling with Yvraine.
He didn't say anything else as he just hugged Yvraine while she herself let herself to be cuddled by him. They were like that for more than half an hour before Yvraine felt hungry and wanted Samiel to cook her something to eat, which he happily obliged.
| сom Samiel went to his private kitchen if it could be even called that way, but it fulfilled its purposes as Samiel could cook some food there for himself and Yvraine.
He even cooked some portions for his sworn knight Juulius because the military rations were not the tastiest ones even if it was prepared by the Holy Templar Order of the Hall of Kadath.
"What do you want for dinner?"
Samiel asked as they arrived at the kitchen that was adjusted to his private quarters.
"Something grilled... and spicy..."
Yvraine asked as she thought about it, which Samiel nodded and started preparing the food. For the meat of choice, he took out the tenderloin of the Earth Drake, which was a pretty expensive ingredient that cost thousands of Gold Coins per kilogram.
Normally only those of very high social status could enjoy it as he took his meat grinder and started grinding the meat, which took him a few minutes.
Aside from the meat, he also ground some fat, because fat is flavor and started adding the mixture of pepper seeds that were extremely, but extremely spicy.
Because Yvraine wanted it to be spicy; Samiel made it spicy. After mixing everything well, he put it around a metal spike, shaped it a little bit around it and started grilling it over charcoal. In the meantime, he prepared a tortilla for the ground meat kebabs.
Yvraine was naturally observing his cooking skills from the side and was already salivating as she inhaled the aroma of the grilled meat, which was intoxicating on its own. It didn't take long for the meat to be grilled, the tortillas were also ready, and Samiel started serving the food.
Though the serving caught Yvraine unguarded because she wasn't expecting to eat with her bare hands, this was something out of her expectations as she unsurely looked at the food in front of her and then at Samiel.
"Are you aware of the fact that we are here alone? Not to mention that I don't really care about the manners..."
Samiel stated with a smile as Yvraine reluctantly nodded.
"So, how is it?"
He asked Yvraine who was learning how to eat kebab; not like there weren't foods like this in the Cosmos or back home in the Nesser Dynasty, but types of food like this were not served in places where she typically went.
Naturally, most places where Yvraine went and ate were befitting her status as an Imperial Family member of one of the most powerful Interdimensional Empires in the Cosmos, so she naturally wouldn't wander through the streets of cities and eat street food from the street vendors.
At the start, Samiel found it funny that she had trouble getting the tortilla in her hands and she made a mess as the food was falling apart when she was not holding it properly, but it took Samiel only a short time to teach her how to do that.
"It's best... like always..."
Yvraine stated because she genuinely enjoyed Samiel's cooking, but she was always a bit regretted that she couldn't cook for him.
This was because she sometimes heard that the men liked women who knew how to cook, but she only knew how to burn things when she attempted to cook something.
Naturally, she didn't cook due though she often contemplated that she needed to find something that would make her more desirable aside from her appearance, which was often the object of lust from the males.
Thanks to her last discussion with Samiel, her feelings and emotions got more stable, though it was still understandable that some of her insecurities remained within her. She didn't know that Samiel was sometimes feeling the same as her, though for a different preseason.
"Thank you very much for that point..."
Samiel stated as he took another bite from the kebab, savoring the spiciness as he thought that he probably added too much of the hot pepper seeds and chose the spiciest variable of the pepper, called Hotflame Pepper.
"Do you have something for dessert? I am in the mood for something sweet."
Yvraine muttered as Samiel looked at her, thinking about what dessert he could make because he was not that good at making sweet things. In the end, he decided to make a tiramisu, as it was one of the few sweet things which he could make easily.
It took him one hour to make a tiramisu as he played with the recipe a bit and used some really exclusive resources, one of them being a social kind of rum that cost an entire fortune per bottle... in the end, he was pretty satisfied with the results as he presented the end product to his elven princess.
"How do you like it? For me, it is a decent try for making something sweet... deserts are not really my strong side."
This and also another thing that Samiel sucked at and wasn't very good at was working with dough... he quickly messed up and when he was making dough, he was always extra careful not to make any mistakes.
Yvraine smiled nervously, looking at Samiel because he liked cooking for her and he didn't wish to serve her something that wouldn't be up to his standards of being edible.
"Sam, it is really good... though after your last attempt for whatever it was supposed to be, I can understand your fear..."
Yvraine said as she took another bite from the tiramisu that he prepared as they talked about some things during the desert.
She greatly enjoyed the dessert which he prepared and soon enough, they started talking about some latest developments in the fashion industry of the Nesser Dynasty because apparently, Yvraine's birthday was closing in and she was subtly hinting to Samiel she wanted a really precious necklace.
