Chapter 108 Cook
Arthur shook his head while looking at his room and replied, "there are two more in my room, you two can keep one each, but be sure to keep them in a glass case if you take them out of the house."
After saying that, he continued walking downstairs.
Bella and Carla looked at each other, they were really curious, after all, women always like things that smell good. The two then entered Arthur's room.
In the living room, Isabel already looked ready to leave. Today she was quite busy, so she chose breakfast outside.
Just like Carla and Bella, her gaze immediately fell to the glass case in Arthur's hands. Because she was a magus, her sense of smell was more sensitive, so she could smell the agarwood very clearly.
"So that's the agarwood, emitting a nice scent without being burnt." She approached Arthur.
The latter handed it over to her.
After holding it, she brought it close to her nose.
"A tree branch has a scent like this, it's really magical," she said.
"What do you think, aunt?" asked Arthur.
"It's too perfect, well, I'm sure it will shock the world."
"I don't think it got to that point, however, people are now used to new things they thought would never appear," said Arthur.
"I hope so!"
"By the way, aunt!" Arthur then told her the results of his conversation with Rock and the others.
Hearing that, the woman's forehead wrinkled. She said, "right, after your conflict with Mossad, their actions will surely escalate."
"I will do everything to help you," replied Arthur.
"Okay, keep telling me no matter what!"
"Yes!" Arthur nodded.
Isabel then took her bag, shoved the glass case into it before taking a step.
Jade happened to enter the door and she saw what Isabel had put in her bag. Considering she was an Evolver, she should be able to smell her scent quite clearly though not as much as Isabel, judging by the furrowed brow, looking like she was wondering what it was.
Arthur naturally wasn't worried even if Jade found out. Someone with a path of science like her would not hesitate if she was told that it was also a product of science.
He went into the kitchen after his aunt left, baking a piece of bread and beef for breakfast. This time, he didn't need too much because last night, he had enough energy so he could eat normally.
Only if he was in another place for too long, only then would he starve.
Carla and Bella came not long after, looking like their curiosity about agarwood had disappeared.
Seeing Arthur cooking, Bella couldn't help but move closer and ask, "you can do that, right?"
Of course, before Arthur could answer, she was already shocked when she saw the bread and beef that Arthur had grilled.
They looked neat and had an even color, as if the degree of doneness in each piece was perfectly regulated.
"Wait, why are you just toasting a loaf of bread and beef?" Bella was surprised again when she realized it while Carla knitted her brows as she looked at Arthur.
The latter who had finished cooking transferred the bread and beef to a plate before replying, "I don't want you two to ask me to cook every day since you won't be able to eat anything else after tasting the food I cooked."
That simple answer made Bella roll her beautiful blue eyes. She gasped and didn't seem sure what to say.
However, Arthur suddenly continued, "of course, if you're curious, I can teach you so you can cook for me in the future."
"Ehmmm..." Bella cleared her throat spontaneously, giving Arthur a strange look.
"Are you serious?" She asked. "You know I'm not good at cooking."
"I just found out, but there's no such concept. It's just because you haven't learned seriously," Arthur replied.
He looked at Carla and added, "are you also interested? Of course, since you are my sister, you have no obligation to cook for me."
"Arthur, aren't you showing too obvious discrimination?" Bella immediately chimed in, looking like she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Arthur didn't respond, he was still staring at Carla.
The girl looked thoughtful and a few moments later, she nodded. "I'll learn, but cooking for one or two people is hardly any different, so there's no need to make such a distinction, I don't mind cooking for you later."
Hearing her words, Bella's eyes twitched strangely, she hurriedly said, "okay, I'll also learn, then I'll cook for you every day, like a good wife."
Arthur chuckled, he nodded. "Good, let's start now!"
After saying that, he went to the dining table, confusing the two beauties.
"Arthur, do you want to eat first?" Asked Carla.
Arthur shook his head, he responded by pointing his hand at them.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two threads of energy suddenly emerged from two of his fingers. They moved towards Carla and Bella before entering their bodies.
"Don't refuse my control, I will control your body so that your physique gets used to cooking movements," he said.
This was another magic out of the thousands of magics he had mastered. It was strange to be able to use so many different magics. He himself felt that way, but that in the end it was an advantage he had.
Other Great Magi can also do so provided they possess the World Creation Spell.
Of course, in the Sky World, only he had that spell.
However, with the magic it doesn't mean he can control people easily as doing so requires great strength. Even with his current strength, he would have a hard time controlling a mortal's body unless they did no resistance at all. This was actually a magic specialized in controlling puppets.
Carla and Bella looked at each other before looking doubtfully at their bodies. They felt like there were new bones in their bodies, something that could control their bodies besides their own bones. Of course, they didn't feel too threatened. They thought that the bones couldn't really control their bodies if they resisted them.
However, they just stood still and looked at Arthur again.
The latter of course didn't perform any special moves as he could control them with his mind.
He started doing it. Slowly, their bodies moved on their own.
"Oh my god..." Bella said with her lips forward.
At this moment, her hand moved, picking up a wooden spatula. She then stepped aside to grab the pieces of beef and bread Arthur hadn't put in the fridge yet.
After her, Carla also did the same.
In a few moments, the two girls were ready in front of their respective stoves.
"Don't forget, pay attention to the details you are doing, such as the amount of spices," said Arthur.
