Chapter 602: Seaside Feast, Dusk Song
The sun slowly sets in the west, and the sky is dyed a magnificent orange-red. The afterglow sprinkles on the earth, as if covering the world with a layer of golden gauze, and time quietly comes to evening.
Yamato opened his sleepy eyes drowsily. Before he was fully conscious, his stomach growled at an inopportune moment, as if eagerly announcing its hunger.
"Miss Yamato, are you awake?" The maid waiting outside the door had very sensitive ears. When she heard the slight movement coming from the room, she asked softly with a bit of concern in her voice.
"Hmm..." Hearing the maid's voice, Yamato slowly climbed out of bed. She rubbed her eyes, trying to dispel the remaining sleepiness, but her stomach growled louder and louder, and the feeling of hunger surged like a tide.
"I'm awake. I'm so hungry now. Is there anything to eat?" Yamato said drowsily, his voice still lazily as if he had just woken up.
"It's like this, Miss Yamato. Lord Ling Yan captured a sea king this afternoon and should be grilling it now. He has instructed that he will take you there when you wake up." The maid immediately responded respectfully.
"Sea king barbecue?!" Upon hearing the words "Sea king barbecue", Yamato was instantly like being injected with a dose of stimulant. His eyes, which were originally a little confused, suddenly widened into a circle, and his eyes were flashing with excitement.
She rushed to the door at lightning speed, opened it with a swish, and asked the maid excitedly, "Where are they? Where are they grilling now?"
"It's at the beach. Lord Ling Yan said that a banquet will be held tonight before Admiral Kaido returns." The maid was startled by Yamato's sudden action, but she quickly calmed down and answered.
"The beach? Change my clothes quickly, I want to go eat barbecue right away!" Yamato said very quickly, then hurried back to the room, looking as if he would miss the delicious sea king barbecue if he was a second late.
"Okay, Miss Yamato." The maid did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately entered the room and skillfully changed Yamato into a beautiful set of clothes suitable for a banquet.
The clothes are brightly colored and unique in style, and they make Yamato look even more heroic when she wears them.
After changing his clothes, Yamato didn't even have the patience to wait for the maid, and ran towards the beach like a gust of wind.
Her long white hair fluttered in the wind and her skirt fluttered in the wind.
Seeing this, the maids and several health doctors behind her hurriedly chased after her, shouting, "Ms. Yamato, slow down!"
But Yamato had already forgotten their cries, and his mind and eyes were filled with the delicious barbecued sea king.
----
The seaside is very lively at this time, like a colorful painting.
The waves gently hit the beach, making pleasant sounds, as if playing a wonderful prelude to the banquet.
Ling Yan, Ling Ji, Gion, and the pirate Hiyori are all there.
Ling Yan stood beside the barbecue grill, skillfully turning the huge piece of sea king meat in his hands. The aroma of the meat wafted in the sea breeze, making people salivate.
Ling Ji was wearing a flowing little skirt, the hem of which swayed gently in the sea breeze, making her look like a fairy descending to earth.
Gion was wearing a neat short suit, looking heroic. She was directing Lingji to add fuel to the fire on her side.
Hiyori was dressed in a kimono, looking gentle and charming, and was helping to set the table.
In addition, there was a group of prostitutes from the corridor of Black Maria.
They were wearing gorgeous kimonos and had exquisite makeup, but they seemed a little restrained at the moment.
They either gathered in twos or threes and talked in low voices, or stood quietly aside, with a hint of nervousness and reserve in their eyes.
After all, facing Ling Yan and others who are the most influential figures on the sea, it is inevitable that they would feel a little uncomfortable.
Ling Yan looked at these prostitutes with a slight smile on his face, thinking to himself that after drinking some wine, they would be able to let loose under the influence of alcohol.
"Lingji, here, add a little more fire here. I like it cooked a little better." While staring at the barbecue, Gion loudly asked Lingji to come over and add some fire to her fire.
"I'm coming." Lingji responded crisply, trotting over like a happy little deer, making the fire in Gion burn more vigorously, and the jumping flames illuminated everyone's faces red.
Yamato finally ran to the beach and smelled the tempting aroma of meat from afar.
She took a deep breath, a satisfied smile appeared on her face, and she shouted loudly: "Here I come!"
Everyone turned around and couldn't help laughing when they saw Yamato's impetuous look.
"Haha, Yamato, you're finally here. If you didn't come, we would have eaten all the barbecue!" Gion joked with a smile.
"Hmph, you dare!" Yamato pretended to be angry and said, then quickly walked to the barbecue grill, staring at the sizzling sea king barbecue, his eyes almost drooling.
"Don't worry, don't worry. I'll cut a piece for you right away." Ling Yan picked up a sharp knife, skillfully cut off a large piece of barbecue, put it on a plate and handed it to Yamato.
Yamato took the plate and, without caring about his image, grabbed the barbecue with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth.
As soon as she took a bite of the tender and juicy barbecue, her eyes lit up instantly and she said incoherently, "It's so delicious! This is the most delicious sea king barbecue I've ever eaten!"
Everyone laughed as they saw Yamato wolfing down the food.
"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you." Gion said with a smile, then picked up a piece of barbecue and started eating it elegantly.
Ling Ji kept adding fuel to the fire and looked at the barbecue from time to time. It was obvious that she was also attracted by the delicious food.
Rihe concentrated on pouring fine wine for Ling Yan. The aroma of the wine filled the air, intertwining with the aroma of the meat, making people intoxicated.
As time went by, the prostitutes gradually relaxed.
Under the influence of alcohol, their cheeks turned red and they began to join in the party, talking and laughing.
Some of the prostitutes began to sing beautiful songs, their voices were graceful and lingering, floating in the sea breeze; some of them started to dance happily, their postures were light and graceful, as if they were a group of dancing butterflies.
For a moment, the sound of clinking glasses and laughter echoed throughout the coast, and the atmosphere reached a climax.
Time passed quietly amid the laughter and joy at the banquet.
I don't know when the moon had climbed up onto the branches, casting silvery light and giving the entire seaside a dreamy color.
The waves still beat against the beach, as if accompanying this joyful banquet.
"I have such a great time today!" Yamato burped contentedly, leaned back in the beach chair, a happy smile on his face.
"Yeah, I haven't been so relaxed in a long time." Gion also sighed, playing with the wine glass in his hand, revealing a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
Lingji was having a great time playing with the other girls. Her laughter was clear and loud, infecting everyone around her.
Rihe sat quietly beside Ling Yan, handing him food from time to time. Looking at the lively crowd, a faint smile appeared on her face.
Ling Yan looked at the warm and joyful scene before him, his heart filled with emotion.
