Hero Of Harmony

Chapter 30: Peaceful Lunch

Anyways, with the gravity belt, my weight had increased tremendously, but the best part about it is that the weight is evenly spread across my body; compared to weighted suits, which I've used before, they aren't nearly as good as the gravity belt, not to mention taking them off is such a hassle.

Since I didn't intend to exercise today, I only did an hour's worth of physical training before taking off the gravity belt and heading to the pond to take a bath for the second time today. Once I finished bathing, I put my clothes back on and headed home; when I arrived, I returned the gravity belt to its usual spot and decided to cook a meal for Master and I since I hadn't eaten today, and I doubt she has as well.

Opening the fridge, which is really just a hollowed-out tree trunk, I grabbed some eggs, dire wolf meat that I hunted, and a whole bunch of vegetables. However, before I started prepping the food, I wore a purple and black apron that said "Master's little disciple" on the front with a red arrow pointing up directly at my face. It was a gift for my eleventh birthday, which was around the time I started to learn how to cook since I immensely enjoyed it as a hobby.

"Alright then, let's get to cooking." Muttered Alexander as he grabbed a knife and began cutting the various vegetables.

Once the vegetables were cooked, I threw them onto a pan and added some oil before lighting the stove with some fire; while the various vegetables were sizzling on the pan, I started working on the eggs. Cracking fifteen eggs into a bowl and throwing away the shells, I started whisking the eggs until the yolk was no more; stirring the pan up a little, I slowly added the fifteen whisked eggs while letting it cook at a stable temperature before focusing on the dire wolf meat.

Placing the slab of wolf meat on the counter, I sliced it into numerous thin slices, attempting to replicate bacon, before grabbing another much larger skillet and laying several pieces of thinly stripped wolf meat onto it. Setting the skillet beside the pan of eggs and vegetables, I once again lit the stove, yet I made this one a little bit hotter.

"Almost forgot to add toast." Said Alexander as he opened the fridge again to grab several slices of bread.

The bread was super easy to prepare as all it required was some heat to be toasted and some butter afterward, though it's not really required. Floating several pieces of toast in the air with my wind mana, I combined it with my flames, causing the surrounding air to heat up and toast the bread. Granted, it will take some time if I do it like this, but it's fine since nothing else is finished yet.

Now that everything was cooking, it was merely the waiting game until something finished, and unsurprisingly, it happened to be the eggs. Shifting the eggs and vegetables about with a spatula to ensure it was evenly cooked, I then placed some onto two already prepared plates, though one plate had noticeably more food than the other.

Putting the pan into the sink, I checked the bacon, but it hadn't become crispy, so I went over to the bread, which was also about done. I grabbed the bread and added some butter before setting them on the plates beside the eggs. When I checked on the bacon, it was perfectly crispy; floating the bacon pieces onto my plate, I blew the flames out with some wind and picked up the two plates before heading toward the table.

'Now then, I just need Master.' Thought Alexander as he ate a piece of bacon while heading to Lavender's office.

Seeing how the door was closed, I made sure to knock first lest I interrupt her in the middle of something important, though since she responded, I knew she wasn't.

"Master, I've made lunch since I'm sure you haven't eaten anything today." Announced Alexander as he opened the door and entered the office, only to see her scribbling about in her notebook.
