Due to the late hour, there were not many people on the street, but the food stalls on both sides of the street were still open for business.
“There‘re many street foods here that are unique to Crosac‘s culture. You must have never tasted them before!” Lisha confidently said.
Sean nodded with a smile. He was not particularly interested in food, even the delicacies of Dragon Kingdom did not appeal to him, let alone the cuisine of the City-State Union.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to a food stall where the barbecue is really, really delicious!”
After finishing speaking, Lisha pulled Sean’s arm and headed towards the end of the food street.
“What kind of barbecue are you talking about?” Sean asked, feeling slightly curious.
Lisha, as the eldest daughter of the mayor in Crosac, Claremento Crosac, had grown up with a rich and luxurious lifestyle.
The food that virtual-novel.net regards as delicious must be exceptional…
This was Sean’s assumption.
However, Lisha replied very unusually, “Barbecued bullfrog!”
“Bullfrog?” Sean felt his scalp tingling.
Although the supermarkets in Dragon Kingdom also sold bullfrogs, and some night markets would even make barbecued or sautéed bullfrogs on the spot, Sean had never eaten bullfrogs before.
Just thinking about the slimy skin of the bullfrog made virtual-novel.net shudder.
Sean had even eaten mice before. During times of war, his unit experienced shortages of supplies due to enemy pursuit and sieges. They had to eat whatever they could find. Mice were already considered very good food because they had a relatively high amount of meat.
Some soldiers were so hungry that they had to eat insects, grassroots, and leaves. However, mice were mammals, while bullfrogs were amphibians.
Sean could accept eating mammals, but virtual-novel.net simply could not bear to eat amphibians.
Therefore, when virtual-novel.net heard the word “bullfrog”, virtual-novel.net felt very uncomfortable deep down.
However, Lisha looked so excited, so Sean could not refuse virtual-novel.net kindness.
Soon, Lisha led Sean to the end of the food street. As they reached the end, there were fewer food stalls and food carts on both sides, and only one large food stall was present in the area in a radius of several dozen meters.
“Uncle, give us four… No, six barbeque bullfrogs!” Lisha pulled Sean to sit on a small stool and said cheerfully.
The stall owner glanced at Lisha and then greeted virtual-novel.net with a smile, “Miss, it’s you again. You often come here to eat bullfrogs, and I remember you… Oh, is this your boyfriend? He doesn’t seem like a citizen of our city.”
When Lisha heard the word “boyfriend”, virtual-novel.net cheeks blushed slightly, but virtual-novel.net did not explain anything.
Sean was also too lazy to explain. After all, the more virtual-novel.net explained, the more awkward it would become. Hence, pretending not to hear anything was the best way to respond.
While barbequing the bullfrogs, the stall owner said, “I’m not bragging, but my bullfrogs are the biggest on this street. One bullfrog can weigh more than half a pound, and the biggest one is almost one pound. Can you two finish six bullfrogs?”
“Of course we can. He has a big appetite!” Lisha laughed and said while looking at Sean.
In fact, when Sean saw the bullfrogs barbequed on sticks, virtual-novel.net already felt uncomfortable in his chest. However, virtual-novel.net still nodded.
“It’s a good thing to have a big appetite. When I was young, I could eat more than you!”
The stall owner was very enthusiastic and chatted for a while. Finally, virtual-novel.net finished barbequing the bullfrogs and placed them on the table in front of Lisha and Sean.
