Chapter 2154: Dinner
“I am finished for today,”
I said as I saw the recovering formation dimming, all the resources I had used spent. They are now inside me, helping me create the life essence that I had burned.
One session is far from enough; with the amount of essence I had burned, I had to use them regularly before I recovered 90%, which could easily take a week or more; I will know clearly by tomorrow.
After the formation was clearly turned off, I went to shower and cleaned off the signs and smell of the resources.
Ten minutes later, I walked out and wore a clean set of clothes before walking out of my room. When I went to the kitchen, I saw the children playing in a living room and my father in conversation with Hazel.
Hazel noticed me first before my father looked at me, “Micheal, you should have informed me about you coming,” My father said. “I did not want to disturb you, dad,” I replied as I had begun to take out the things for dinner.
“I am allowed to be disturbed by my son,” He said, “How long are you going to stay?” before adding, “At least a week,” I replied. “Good, rose will be happy; she had been quite sad since your mother left,” He said.
My mother had stopped contact a few days after she had left for her mission. I don’t know where she had gone, but it is likely deep into the Grimm territory.
The Pyramid did not tell me anything about her mission; the only thing I know is that she is alive and she is with a very powerful Grandmaster. Her mission seemed quite important; they don’t send Grandmaster for the regular mission, much less two.
My mother may be a leader technically, but her art gives her the power of the Grandmaster, and she is very hard to kill with her art.
After exchanging a few words with Hazel, I concentrated fully on my cooking. I am making quite complicated dishes, most of them were the ones I had created, but some of them were from totem and at very high rank.
I used not only my hands but also my vines. Though I could only use six vines with my current ability, they are more than enough.
A few minutes into cooking, I saw Hazel walking out of the spot and sitting in front of me without making any sound. She did not disturb me as I cooked, just watched silently.
It took me an hour and a half before I finally finished with the last dish and ordered service golems to place the dishes. These golems that Elina had given me are really good, perfect when I host the people.
“Your control is phenomenal, Micheal; even some Grandmaster don’t have such control as you do,” Hazel said as she took a seat on the dinner table.
“Its all practice hazel and a few tricks,” I replied. It is the truth, in the tome, I had practiced for decades and learned a few tricks from that being inside, which helped me improve my control tremendously for my level.
“If I did not know better, I would have thought you have gained such control through the impartation,” She joked, which made both me and my father laugh.
Soon the golems placed the appetizers in front of us, and I was surprised; my sister did not directly eat it. Instead, she waited till I started to like the rest of the people at the table.
It seemed like she was learning some manners from her new friends. It seemed like I would have to thank Hazel for that later, mother had never taught her that, and we did not need much focus on it. My parents always kept things light.
“The dinner was amazing, Micheal; it is one of the best meals I have ever eaten,” Hazel said as we finished with the dinner. “Thank you, Hazel,” I said.
Hazel stayed for fifteen minutes before she left with her kids, who were reluctant to leave their new friend Nero who had enamored them completely. I wonder how they will react if he suddenly begins to talk.
I had warned Nero strictly about talking, and other than my mother, nobody knew that Nero could take. They will receive quite a shock if they find out.
“How was your assignment?” Father asked after Hazel left. “It was a little tough, but I was able to deal with it,” I replied. To that, he just nodded.
“I wonder how your mother is? It had been more than one and half months, and there is no contact from your mother,” He said with a sigh. “It is the longest time we have been separated since we have begun dating,” He added while looking ahead with the lost eyes.
I did not say anything for a few seconds before I turned to him, “She is fine; the enemies will have to try really hard to do anything to mom,” I said to which he nodded.
Half an hour while we talked, my sister fell asleep with Nero in her hand. We placed in her room before we went to my father’s lab, where he began to show me his research.
I was quite surprised to see the result the research of my father had brought, it had just been two months, but he had done a surprising great. If he had been born in a big organization, he would have already made a huge name for himself.
I gave him my input when he asked and also asked him to conduct research on a few subjects for me. There are many secrete things I have been working on, and I could not let anyone know about them.
My father is the best person to help me with some of them, and it is in his area of expertise. I am quite sure he will do a wonderful job and might even surprise me as he had done just now.
