I Can Upgrade My Talent In Everything

Chapter 74 Sofia's Desire

"Let's dig in!"

Voli quickly charges at the food as his life depends on it. He chewed the meat using with his sharp teeth. The meat that was already soft melted in Voli's mouth thoroughly. After one bite, it was followed by another. The quality of ingredients this time had surpassed what Fein used in the past.

The meat of a strong monster is nourished by the degu energy which directly enhanced its flavors. The leopard was also a type of monster that has an attribute that gave the meat a fluffy texture like a cloud. It was firm on the outside yet soft on the inside.

Even Sofia who was a little bit reserved when eating can't hold back herself anymore. As a person who belongs to a high-ranking family, she was taught etiquette since she was young. But now, she doesn't care about it anymore.

Every bite she takes has lifted her to heaven and gave her a blissful feeling, the golden texture was produced by a spice that was given by Fein from Lucius. The name of the spice is golden granola. It was used by the chefs of wealthy families especially to add a sweet flavor that would perfectly suit anyone's pallet when cooked right.

Seeing them enjoying the food, Fein felt proud. Now he understands the feeling of the chef in his previous life. It was truly rewarding when you see people enjoying your food. Food satiates a person's hunger. But good food brings happiness to everyone.

Fein used his spoon to taste his food. As the meat touched his tongue, he felt sweet meat juices on his tongue. As he chewed it, he felt refreshed at the delicate texture of the meat. Even Fein enjoyed his food which shows how delicious the food is.

'If there's a red wine it would be perfect

Fein was disappointed that he didn't include red wine in the storage space. In his past life, he would always drink red wine with his friends when they are celebrating.

Thinking of his few friends, and their smiles in his past life, Fein felt sad for a while. Even though he wasn't born rich and he doesn't have a lot of friends. He still has a few that are worth cherishing. A few quality friends that he could trust. His brothers would back each other when one encountered trouble. Fein sighed slightly, he knew that thinking of the past would only make him feel lonely, he just hopes that his friends are doing great and they are healthy. He wonders how are they doing now.

"What happened?" Sofia asked after noticing Fein's melancholy expression.

Fein smiled at Sofia's obvious care. He cheered himself after seeing Voli and Sofia.

'Although I don't know if I can go back again, I also have some people here that are worth cherishing' Fein looked at Sofia who was looking at him worriedly.

"I'm good"

Sofia let go of her worries after seeing Fein's countenance return to normal. She knew that Fein have some stories about him. But she knew to be patient. She wouldn't force him to tell her his secret. After all, everyone has them, she wasn't expecting Fein to reciprocate her action of telling her secrets to him, because it was her own will, Fein doesn't have the obligation to do the same and she was aware of it. But Sofia still hopes that she can be someone who could share his burden. After all, he doesn't need to be alone.

'I will become strong enough so I can help him face problems and support his future endeavors!' Sofia clenched her fist, and a seed of determination was planted in her heart.

Just like that, three of them finished eating with their bellies full. Fein and Sofia start talking about their daily life, ranging from what is their favorite food, their funny school experience, and what are their hobbies, and as the night deepens the three of them slowly became drowsy.

"Well, let's find a safe place to sleep." Fein retrieved items to use for sleep.

He looked at the moon in the middle of the sky. It illuminates the ground to provide light for the creatures below. The moon provides comfort to the surrounding environment that was covered by darkness.

"Look, the trees are glowing!" Sofia exclaimed while pointing at the trees that were flickering with colorful lights.

Fein looks at it with amazement. "It's certainly beautiful."

The trees are towering more than 100 meters, there are pink star shape fruits scattered at every branch of the three.

Fein saw the peaceful beasts were also gathering below the trees to rest. Their coordination and interaction are more like a community.

As they proceed to find a place, the wonders of the Secret Realm in the night was revealed to them. Different kinds of beasts are here, some were peaceful while some are wild. The strange thing was even then, they didn't attack each other. Simply because even the wild here has an unspoken rule. At night, fights are forbidden, if one broke the rules, they would face the might of the whole beast in the lower realm.

Now, Fein realized this, and he knew that in disorder there was an order.

"This will do," Fein said while inspecting the place they would sleep at.

The terrain has at least five orange trees that provide it a cover. Fein didn't need to worry about safety. Because with the unspoken rule, the night is safer here.

After all that fighting, he was exhausted. Furthermore, eating makes him more sleepy. That's why he just wants to recharge his mind and body.

Fein prepared and organize the sleeping items on the ground.

Sofia jumped down from the back of Voli.

"It's a good spot, Goodnight!" Sofia who was also tired from all the actions earlier lay down and closed her eyes to sleep.

While Voli patted her bulging tummy in a satisfied manner. He looked at its master and licked him a few times before closing his eyes.

Seeing the clouds looming over them, and the quiet area with only a sound of an owl that can be heard from time to time. Fein jumped on top of the tree and entered deep meditation.
