Rise To Annwn

Chapter 26 Alice's much needed talk

In the basement of Tsuyoi's new house. Alice is eating crazy amounts of food.

Tsuyoi stares in at Alice trying her best to keep her manners even though she is scarfing down the food crazily.

"Fitith" Alice says holding up an empty plate.

"Coming right up"

How can you say fiith with a straight face? From a 7 course meal that rivals the size of a Thanksgiving feast.

I take back what I said about her hurt being warm no she is gluttony. Even gluttony will get full before she does.

A little before.

"Wait why do you want my food. You seem loaded so why do you not go to a five-star restaurant" Tsuyoi getting into the kitchen preparing to make some food.

"Because I want to do a test something"

"Ok, I don't know why but whatever"
Tsuyoi continued to cook. Alice paid for all the supplies. Even though the amount of food she bought was enough to feed a family for 2 weeks Tsuyoi can't complain after being saved he owes her his life. She even healed him from his injury from the fight.

Back to the present.

It has been 3 hours of constant work and this woman don't stop eating what is her stomach a black hole.

Tsuyoi comes back to the table and hands over it to Alice.

"So what was this test"

"Oh it was to find out why your food has a warmth feeling than the food back at home"

"Ohhhhhh, so does it have this warmth feeling"

"Yes, and it is great" Alice eating the food but now slowing down to talk.

"Alright" Tsuyoi does a fist bump in the air as a sign of completion.

"Huh?"

"Oh sorry, I just find when I make food for people and they have this warmth it feels great. I cooked for my master. Also back at him, I cooked for my family and friends...it was all I was good" Tsuyoi saying the last part under his breath.

"...?"

"Nothing how about the food at your place why don't you feel this warmth"

"I don't know why does your food have a warmth to it"

"Answering a question with a question I respect that. Ok if you look at the food on your plates they are made just for you, right? You see no vegetables"

Alice stops eating and pauses to look down only to find that he was right they were no vegetables. She picks up the plate to look at the bottom too which confuses Tsuyoi.

"I believe that you have been eating food that was made to please a large section of people, not a single person that is why" Tsuyoi sticks his hand on the table acting proud to his dish.

Alice just stares at him only to go back to eating a second later. Tsuyoi hand slips off the table because of that reaction.

Tsuyoi on the floor looks at the kitchen and stares at the trash can. I can't control my power I destroyed so many pans because of this overwhelming power. Even now I still feel the burn. The burn feels like a massive stomach ache.

Tsuyoi is glad he got this power up but also sad. He made up this giant problem and but when he got an easy solution it feels even worse it makes him want to go back to the weak self for some reason. He doesn't feel as if he earned it.

"You earned that power fair and square"

"Huh? Can you read minds?"

"No, you're staring your hand only people questioning their powers do that"
