Cheat Awakening

"Seems like you found a way to use my knife."

After a minute, she returned with a drink, smiling as she saw her knife on the table, its handle bulging and wrapped with duct tape.

"If you had told me about this trick, I might not have lost so much hair thinking how to use it," Myne complained, looking at the strange drink in the glass. Its dark red colour raised doubts, and the occasional bubbles bursting on the surface didn't inspire his confidence to bring it close to his lips.

"Drink it. What are you waiting for? It's good for your health. Don't you trust me?" The woman in red, seeing Myne staring at the drink with a forced smile, giggled. She leaned against the couch, one leg crossed over the other, arms crossed, and stared at him playfully.

{ This is a mixture of different creatures' blood, boiled with mutant herbs. It contains a little bit of pollution, but not much. It's good for controlling bloodlust and specific symptoms of a curse. }

After reading the description of the { ? } on the drink, Myne breathed a sigh of relief. For a second, he genuinely thought the beautiful lady wanted to kill him by feeding him some kind of poison.

{ She found you more interesting than she expected. }

{ She couldn't wait to serve you the dishes she made and see your reaction. }

{ She didn't dislike you and think you are annoying. }

If she has this kind of weird cooking style, I understand why she's so eager to serve me her cooking. Why am I getting Aisha vibes from her? Sigh, why are all beautiful women so mischievous? Can't they be normal like my little slave? Myne sighed, shaking his head, and took a small sip of the drink. However, the next second he opened his eyes with shock, because to his surprise, although the drink looked creepy and weird, it tasted very good, and he gulped down the rest of it without realizing it.

"Weirdo... He actually trusts a stranger and drinks something unknown. Where does his confidence come from?" The woman in red watched Myne gulp down her drink calmly and couldn't help but marvel at his blind trust in her. This was something she had never seen before.

"How was it?" She asked with a smile.

"Nice... Can I have one more?" Myne put down the glass, wiped his mouth, and asked excitedly. He hadn't expected that this weird-looking drink would be so good. And because he had been wandering outside for hours, and even before that had only eaten a little because the stingy landlord hadn't cooked enough food for everyone, he had barely filled his stomach.

Now, after seeing something delicious and pollution-free, naturally, he wouldn't shy away and ask boldly. Anyway, he had already bought enough materials for her to cook as much as she wanted; having an additional stomach didn't matter much.

"Sorry, dear, this is my special medicine. I have very little, and can't give you any more. But since you look hungry, how about I cook something for you?" The woman in red awkwardly refused Myne's request, as she really didn't have enough of this drink. If she didn't take it herself on time, there was a high possibility that she might get out of control, and that was something she didn't want to see.

"Really!? That would be fantastic!" Myne, who was already hungry and found that the woman in red was a good chef, albeit one who liked playing with her guests, replied excitedly.

"But I don't want to be a burden on you. Let me help you with the cooking. I have quite a lot of experience as an assistant," He continued as he got up and walked toward the kitchen.

"I don't think it's a good idea for you to enter the kitchen," The woman in red hurriedly blocked Myne's path and said nervously.

"Ah, don't be shy. How bad can it be anyway?" Myne didn't take her warning seriously. He gently pushed her aside and walked into the kitchen with his chest held high. However, after seeing the horrifying view inside, he nodded his head for a few seconds before honestly walking back and closing the door behind him.

"You really need to clean it. By the way, where is the bathroom?" Myne said to the woman in red, who was covering her face embarrassedly. Hearing his question, she pointed at the bedroom, and Myne walked toward it without saying much. Soon, the loud sound of vomiting could be heard from inside the bathroom.

"I told you not to go there," The woman in red handed Myne water as he walked out of the bathroom with a pale face. Clearly, what he saw inside the kitchen was beyond his tolerance limit.

"Please tell me you're not doing that for fun?" Myne lay down on the clean and comfortable bed and asked the woman in red beside him with a pleading look. If not for the fact that he could read her inner thoughts and knew that she was a good and normal person at heart, after seeing the scene inside the kitchen, he would have definitely fled without a single thought.

"It's a bit complicated, but I can vow that there's a serious reason behind it and it has nothing to do with fun. I don't like it, but I have no choice... Sigh, all right, you rest a bit, I'll cook something nice for you," Saying that, the woman in red walked out of the bedroom.

{ She's grateful that you didn't flee. }

{ She feels tired and wants to end this nightmare. }

{ She's annoyed that you made her sad, she couldn't wait to come out and cut you into thousands of pieces. }

"Great... I made another enemy without doing anything," Myne read the last three messages in the woman in red's head before she closed the door, and didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.

But then he fell into deep thought. He really couldn't accept that the woman he had a slight crush on would have psychopathic hobbies and that literally 80% of her kitchen was filled with blood, organs, monster body parts, various types of meat, and some other things.

Blood like rain dripping from the ceiling nonstop, even five inches from the ground was filled with blood creating a small pond, and all kinds of weird dishes, he didn't know what else to call them, were placed disgracefully on the dining table.

Walls were decorated with unusual, creepy art made of extra body parts, after seeing which, Myne, who had just drunk the special drink made of a lot of blood, obviously couldn't hold it back and vomited everything.

"I hoped she prepared something from vegetables. I didn't have the guts to eat non-veg food after what I'd seen," Although Myne always knew he had a strong mentality and wasn't easily shaken by visual things, today, he had to admit someone had truly killed his appetite.

...

"Please come back if you have time. I really enjoy your company," The woman in red said with a smile, bidding Myne farewell at her doorstep after dinner.

"If only you'd promise to cook more dishes for me... without any meat of course... I think I'll take a break from non-vegetarian food for a while. By the way, thanks for this gift; Ted will definitely be very happy," Myne replied cheerfully, having eaten his fill of delicious vegetarian food cooked by the woman in red. He thanked her wholeheartedly, anyone praising anyone doesn't cost him anything.

"No problem. I also enjoy spending time with you, and next time, don't forget to bring your dog; I like dogs very much," The woman in red replied and was about to close the door. Myne, however, couldn't let go of an opportunity when the iron was hot.

Seeing her in a good mood, he quickly stepped forward and gave her a tight hug, catching her off guard. Before she could react, he grabbed her shoulders, broke the hug, and said, "Come out ten minutes later after the dinner bell rang tomorrow," before rushing toward the stairs.

"Hehehe, interesting... I wonder what's going on in his naughty mind," She chuckled, watching Myne run away before walking back into her house and closing the door behind her. She didn't dwell on his little plan, figuring she would find out whatever he was planning tomorrow; there was no point in being anxious.
