Chapter 195 “You’re only allowed to take a few bites.”
She knew Zeke had a bad stomach. Because of that, their missions were often disrupted, and he was
hospitalized a few times.
Zeke’s excitement died down instantly the moment he heard that. But he quickly comforted himself,
“Better than nothing,” and continued to dart toward the food stalls.
Nicole did not stop him again but slowly followed him.
The two of them sat down in front of a stall. The stall owner who thought they did not speak the local
language asked them in poor Esperian what they would like to eat. Nicole looked at the many types of
food in front of her eyes. “What do you like?” she asked Zeke softly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZeke pointed to a few sticks of grilled chili peppers. “I want this!”
Nicole looked at him expressionlessly. “No.”
Zeke looked disappointed and then cautiously pointed to the grilled fish marinated with a layer of red,
spicy oil. “How about this?”
“No.” Nicole still gave the same answer.
At last, Zeke could only order a bowl of ramen with extreme disgruntlement. The ramen tasted bland to
his taste bud as he looked indignantly at Nicole, in front of whom were chili peppers and grilled fish.
When Nicole slowly savored the food in front of her with a straight face, Zeke could not believe his
eyes. He wondered if the food was as spicy as he had imagined.
Even the stall owner was puzzled, doubting if the chili peppers he used had expired. But that was

Nicole was talking to the stall owner. He immediately felt a spicy taste coming from his lips, and his
lower lip was swollen with a burning sensation.
He quickly spat out the pepper and drank several mouthfuls of water. Zeke then mumbled,” Nicole, are

Nicole looked at Zeke with a half-smile. She had already noticed his action earlier but did not
expose him. She wanted him to know his limit through mistakes.
The stall owner looked at the two of them with a smile on his tanned face.
Just then, Nicole felt a gust of wind from behind. Her expression became grave in an instant as she
tilted her head slightly to the side. Immediately, a wooden plank hit the grilled fish and smashed it in
front of her.
Zeke looked at the grilled fish with a trace of anger slowly creeping across his face. He jerked his head
back, looking at the person behind him with fiery eyes.
It turned out that the attacker was a local guy with profound facial features. A group of guys in messy
and dirty punk attires was wielding wooden sticks and crowbars in their hands. All of them had their
hair dyed in different colors. However, as if they had not washed it for many days, the supposedly
bright color had turned dull.
The leading guy, a blue-haired man, looked at Nicole with amazement. “This chick is stunning!”
