"Is that so?" Yan Di smiled. He didn't expose Shuten's blatant lie, but instead raised an eyebrow and tapped the bar counter lightly with his finger. "Then let's just consider it a misunderstanding! As a guest, I hope you can prepare food that satisfies me. That shouldn't be too much to ask, right?"
Shuten's expression was not very good.
However, in order not to anger the man in front of him who seemed to be looking for trouble in every way, Shuten tried his best to maintain a smile and politely nodded to Yan Di: "Okay, guest, please wait a moment, we will do our best to meet your requirements!"
What would you like to eat now?
Yan Di leaned lazily against the bar, his eyes filled with mockery and disdain: "It doesn't matter what we eat, as long as we're full."
At this, Shuten-dōji's face instantly turned completely black.
If someone else made such a request, it would be easy to fulfill, but who is this man in front of you? He is Taotie, the legendary ferocious beast that devours even itself when it gets hungry.
I want him to eat his fill...
This is practically an impossible task.
"What, you can't?" Yan Di narrowed his eyes slightly behind his glasses, and the overwhelming pressure made Shuten-dōji and Ōtengu feel the suffocating feeling of impending death.
"If you can't even meet such a simple request, can I take it as your store having some kind of dissatisfaction with me, and trying to shut me out in this way?"
That's a serious statement.
However, after being threatened earlier, the once incredibly powerful and ruthless Great Tengu inside had lost his initial imposing manner and obediently followed Shuten-dōji's orders to go into the kitchen to prepare.
Sushi, sashimi, and various boiled and fried dishes were served in a lavish manner, but Yan Di's reaction was very calm. He calmly picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.
It can be said that Emperor Yama ate very quickly, but there was no sign of him wolfing down his food. Instead, he exuded a textbook-like elegance and composure.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of the ingredients in the kitchen had disappeared, and many of them were even gone.
However, the speed at which the Emperor Yan ate did not decrease at all; it remained at the same pace as before, as if he had just eaten not ingredients from the kitchen, but merely an appetizer.
"Guests, our izakaya isn't very big, so to ensure freshness, we don't prepare too many ingredients."
We currently have no ingredients left in our kitchen to prepare anything new for you.
In the end, Shuten had no choice but to bite the bullet and approach Enma, trying his best to smooth things over: "We are very sorry for the bad dining experience you had. To express our apologies, we are willing to waive all the expenses for today. Please forgive our mistake."
It can be said that Shuten-dōji's words were extremely humble. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have backed down and stopped pursuing the matter.
However, the King of Hell did not come here for a meal. His purpose was very clear—to cause trouble!
So even when faced with a humble attitude from Shuten-dōji, Enma still had his unique way of provoking trouble: "Are you saying that I can't afford to pay for today's meal?"
