??-----??"So? Want thirds?" Drake asked cheerfully.
??"…Sure." Jotun said with a smile. "Your food's delicious, thanks for everything, kid- No, Drake."
??"Eh? Why thanks?" Wondered Drake.
??"You've kind of… made me realize that I've been being overly grumpy for the most dumbest of things." Jotun said. "I shouldn't had told you all of that, nor forced you into that tournament… Agh, I feel so ashamed for doing something so immature with a young and promising soul as you… Sorry, really, I am sorry."
??Jotun apologized in front of Drake, as Drake sighed.
??"Well, I am glad you're sorry…" He said, as Jotun closed her eyes and nodded while lowering her head in shame. However, Drake quickly smiled back. "But that's that, right? It's already on the past! There's no point holding grudges with family."
??"Huh?" Jotun felt once more surprised.
??"Isn't this how your family is as well? Look at all these Earth Dragons… They fought inside the tournaments to the death and all, but once it done, they drink, they laugh, and they celebrate. I can understand that it is within your nature to like proving your strength. Although I was a bit annoyed at first, I kind of enjoyed the whole tournament. It even helped me see my father and my wife with new eyes too." Drake said.
??Jotun looked back at her own family, the earth dragons, all celebrating and drinking, laughing, cheering, and more. They were all so relaxed and happy that she couldn't believe they were all bloodthirsty some time ago. At the end, it seemed that even her children were more forgiving than her.
??"I have more to learn not only from you but from my own kids…" Jotun said. "Thanks for everything again, Drake."
??"Ah, don't mind it aunt." Said Drake. "It's all good now. We are family."
??"Yeah…" Jotun smiled cheerfully. "Hahah, I guess we are really family."
??As Jotun stayed looking at the crowd and then quickly was surrounded by her kids, Drake walked back to his family, feeling his heart lighter than before. That talk also helped him get some things out of his heart, things he wanted to talk with Jotun about. He was happy he managed to get through her dense nature and managed to make her understand of the beautiful treasure in front of her. That big family.

??After talking with Jotun for a while, I continued cooking a bit more for my family. I quickly used some Doppelgangers to serve food to everyone else that wanted to eat. All the other dragons were left satisfied after a while. After that, I just sat down with Benladann, my parents, and my grandmother, and we enjoyed the food. Nifl and Fafnir in specific were very surprised over the taste of my food… I felt a bit embarrassed how much they exaggerated over it.
??"T-This food is amazing! W-What the heck is this?!" My father asked. "Curry?"
??"Yeah that's curry, but I made it using seafood, so it has other flavors. It is sweeter and has a stronger flavor." I said.
??"I can taste the entire sea…" My father said. "This squid's delicious too!"
??"I added the Flying Squids we hunted back then, apparently I can also bring physical things now if I bring them using my Spatial Inventory Ability." I said with a smile.
??"S-Spatial Inventory… What is that?" Wondered my mother.
??"Oh, you didn't knew? Well it is part of one of my Unique Skills. It used to be a skill of its own but it disappeared after I evolved into a Dragon God, but the Skill is still there, it evolved and became a near endless space where I can store anything inside and retrieve it. Is it weird?" I wondered.
??"IT IS!" Fafnir, Nifl, and Svartalf said at the same time, as Benladann chuckled a bit at my side.
??"Y-You're telling me you can manipulate space itself and bring along with you a pocket dimension to store things?! There is no Space Attribute Dragons at all so this is completely new!" Said Fafnir.
??"A-Amazing…" My mother said. "My son is really doing incredible things."
??"Y-Yeah… I guess. It also stops time inside so it can keep everything I put inside fresh forever. Of course I can't store living things for some reason… Probably a limitation." I said.
??"Well even then that's one amazing power." Svartalf said. "And this curry it is to die for…"
??"Well there's more than that, try this spaghetti grandma. We got with red sauce, white sauce, and green sauce." I said. My parents and grandma quickly took one each and began tasting it.
??"Hm?! This delicious herb flavor?! And the soft and slimy noodles… It is such a simple taste but it goes so well together! Ah, I never thought oils could go so well with some herbs you've made into a paste…" My mother said. "This is called, green sauce?"
??"It is called Pesto, it is pretty tasty, right? I am using a few replacements as the original herbs couldn't be found I this world, but the replacement herbs are just as nice." I said.
??"And this red sauce… Ohh, it has small, grounded meat in the sauce? and this is such a strong tomato flavor…. the cheese you've put over is also delicious." Grandmother said. "It all goes so well, it is almost a piece of art!"
??"That's just tomato sauce with meat and some spices alongside a bit of onions and garlic. Parmesan cheese is nice, it took me a while to get it right though." I said.
??"And this white sauce is so creamy, milky, and cheesy! T-This is addictive!" My father said, eating all the noodles.
??"And that's white sauce, made primarily with milk cream and cheese, it is pretty good, right? It has a relaxing flavor." I said.
??"It is my favorite now!" My father proclaimed.
??"These noodles are black… What is this black sauce? It tastes like seafood, and goes nicely with the squid and shrimp!" Benladann said.
??"Oh! That's squid ink sauce, it has a cool black color, right?" I laughed.
??"EH?! INK?!"
