The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 398 - Food Energy...

[POV Reo] 

There was something I realized long ago… Hela loved blood and gore and that is the only reason the two of us were watching Saw 2 right now, we have just finished watching Saw 1 and boy it was one intense movie.

I am going to be honest here… I have no problems with gore and stuff like that but these movies can make me slightly uncomfortable… so, like a pro I used my Mind Powers to ignore the movie. 

Hela was watching the movies with a gleeful look on her face… I wonder how I am going to introduce Hela to my parents… that is going to be an uncomfortable meeting and I am already sure of it.

All of a sudden I perked up when I noticed that Momo, Fleur, Jean, and Ororo were coming down… they wanted to learn the basics of cooking from me… I wanted to tell them that I wasn't a miracle worker but I didn't want to crush their hopes. 

The four of them finally arrived in the living room and their faces turned slightly green when they noticed the movie Hela was watching… our TV was really massive… Momo had made this TV for Luna and Attila back in the Marvel World. At that time both of them loved to watch cartoons. 

The two of them still watched cartoons from time to time but it's rare… Now, most of the time it was only Fenris and Attila who watched cartoons in the house… Attila used her tail to use the remote, she was really smart. 

The girls ignored Hela's gleeful expression and approached the two of us. "How can I help you girls?" I asked them even if I already knew. 

"...Well… we were wondering if you could teach us some cooking…" Momo muttered slightly fidgeting. 

"Yes… just some tips here and there" Jean pointed out and all the girls frantically nodded their heads. For a few seconds, I didn't give them an answer… this seemed to make them nervous. 

"Fine… let's go. Hela be a dear and don't go out to slaughter humanity" I said while patting Hela's head. Hela pouted when I extracted myself from her arms but didn't complain. 

"Fine… I have to finish this lovely movie series… I simply can't understand why Asgard didn't have such wondrous acts…" Hela mused and I simply facepalmed… the girls also refrained from making any comments. 

I simply led the girls towards the kitchen. "So what do you girls want to learn?" I asked and it was Ororo who answered me. 

"I think that we should start with a simple omelette… what do you think about that?" Ororo asked the others and they nodded their heads in agreement. 

"That would be ideal" Fleur commented and I nodded my head. Well, an omelette is pretty easy… with a wave of my hand all the ingredients appeared on the table… having so many powers is really great. I lowered the flames and poured some oil in the frying pan. 

I conjured myself a glass and cracked and used my telekinesis to crack two eggs and pour the eggs into the glass. I used telekinesis to beat the eggs while I was chopping onions and some tomatoes on the other side of the table using my telekinesis. As soon as the onions and tomatoes were chopped, I put them inside the glass. 

After beating the eggs for a few more seconds, I added seasoning and poured the contents of the glass into the frying pan… I continued shaking the pan until the egg started to shake… When the eggs were almost done, I rolled the eggs to snugly form an oval shaped omelette.

That looks way better than I had made previously. I took a small bite and I was completely gobsmacked… the omelette was so good that I wanted to melt away. This was so good but why the hell did my food become so good all of sudden?? 

I heard four moans and my eyes finally found the girls. The girls were eating the omelette with a blissful look on their faces. "This is so good…" Momo moaned and placed her hand on her cheek… she looked really content. 

"This is very… Délicieuse!!" Fleur exclaimed elegantly.

"This is so good… I simply want to get lost in all these flavours" Jean mumbled under her breath. 

"Reo… can you make us a few more of these?" Ororo asked me in a hopeful tone and who was I to deny… and I also wanted to check my theory. 

I brought more ingredients using my Space Powers and started to make omelettes. I was making 5 this time… after all, I wanted to eat one myself. I noticed the girls were noting down everything I was doing while watching my actions intently. It only took me 5 minutes to finish the omelettes. 

I took a bite once again and found that the omelette was slightly better than the last one… the change was very small but still noticeable if you were looking for it. Now, I have finally confirmed my theory… the Food was so good in this world because of the Food energy in this world. 

I have noticed that the ingredients were also good in this world… The favours were a lot more pronounced. The same energy was making my food so good… after all, I have never made such delicious omelettes. The girls happily ate their omelettes with a blissful look on their faces… They were also making comments on the omelette from time to time. 

"Why don't you girls give it a try?" I asked the girls. According to my theory, it was possible for them to learn cooking… even if they make something disgusting like Sadatsuka Nao, the Food Energy of this world is going to make it delicious. 

Though I don't want any of them to turn into Sadatsuka Nao… that would be really bad. "Are you sure… I don't know if I could make something like this" Momo said nervously and I simply smiled. 

"You won't know until you try… I have never made omelettes so delicious" I said and Momo nervously nodded her head and agreed to give it a try. The other girls also wished her luck. Momo finally took a deep breath and picked up the frying pan… 

[POV Nat] 

I was confused… I have seen how these guys were making karaages… I have noted down their recipe but I didn't find anything special… This is what confused me. They made karaages the normal and usual way without anything new… 

For now, I decided to return to Knox… I will get more chances. I wonder if Momo and others found something interesting about food. I finally entered Knox and grimaced as soon as I noticed the movie Hela was watching… I might have been a spy with a strong gut but I don't want to watch people ripping apart other people's gut. 

I headed straight towards the kitchen… I wanted to have a drink. I sensed Reo and the girls in the kitchen… maybe Reo is making something for them but as soon as I entered the kitchen, I froze. Fleur was cooking while Momo and Ororo were helping the said woman. 

Fleur was an elegant woman who was good in research and making stuff but she was utterly useless in the department of cooking… She had the ability to burn water and I had no idea how she achieved that feat. 

But now… she was COOKING!!! And from the smell she is doing a damn good job… is this the end of the world??? Before I could contemplate anymore on this topic, Reo called me out. 

"Nat… good to have you back. Come and have a seat" Reo said and I robotically nodded my head and sat down beside Jean… I was still stunned due to the scene in front of me. 

Fleur finally finished cooking and put the omelette on a plate. Reo and the girls took a small bite and all of them nodded their heads with a pleased look on their faces… This must be a dream. I pinched myself and felt a sting… yep! Not a dream! 

"Nat, why don't you take a bite…" Fleur offered me with a smile. I gulped down and nervously put a small piece of the omelette inside my mouth and my whole vision exploded. I found myself lost in a world of flavours… this was so good!!

"This is so good… can you teach me too?" I asked Reo and the girls in a hopeful tone… I am going to try the karaage recipe… I am not good at cooking but giving it a try won't hurt… after all, I ate Fleur's food and I am still alive. 

"Sure" Reo and the girls answered me in a cheerful tone and a grin formed on my face…
