Novel Full Chapter 679 - A New Morning
-----
[Day 257]
Yesterday we spent the day buying all sorts of things in the Market, but even then, I feel like we didn't checked half of it, but we ended too tired to check more than what we did, and we ended wandering around the pain plaza that had a beautiful clear water fountain were little birds gathered, we ate some snacks that street vendors sold and then we had dinner in a fine restaurants, I ordered a lot of meat, and I ended tasting a lot of the meat from conventional animals, you don't know how nice is to just eat a steak of normal cow for once.
They also had normal chickens, which I brought several of them fried over a pan and seasoned quite finely, they were pretty good. Although it seems that they have yet to invent things such as deep-fried chicken covered in crunchy batter and panko, so maybe to eat that I will have to cook it myself.
I woke up with a lot of energies today, as I found my Benladann sleeping at my side and my little princess also sleeping, I guess I woke up earlier than everybody today. The rest of my group was in their own rooms this time around so we had the room all for ourselves that night, although Benladra was a bit insufferable last night because she ate too much sugar and couldn't sleep… I shouldn't had allowed her to eat so many candied apples and candied oranges, but she looked so cute and happy… I guess I am the doting-type of parent, that's already pretty clear.
It is nice to see them sleeping so peacefully, it fills my heart with such a soothing peace. I want… to protect this peace of theirs. I want to give them the happiness they deserve and make them live without worries. I want to see my little girl grow up into a woman and have her own life… I want her to be happy. And have no worries… I know being a dragon comes with many difficulties and things she'll have to go through, but that's the reason her father and her mother are there for her. And well, her auntie Miranda, and her grandmother Benlah and her grandfather Laddan… And everybody else, we are all a big family after all.
And I am happy that our little girl has been slowly surpassing this fear she felt about people, slowly yet steadily, she had been getting used to people, and now accepted and was pretty okay with other people… Although she still doesn't like being carried by anybody else than Benladann and I, maybe Miranda and her grandpas? Only those three she kind of accepts, but not for too long, or she gets grumpy. We still have to deal with her grumpiness, that's a whole different problem we have yet to assess!
Oh well, time to wake up, the sun is strong already at this hour, it is just around 8 AM and the sun is already piercing the sky with a lot of force, the sky is most of the time always clear in here, so the sun hits harder than usual. In the snow lands the sky is often covered in clouds all the time so you don't often see the sun as beautifully as today unless I am in my castle floating atop the sky, which is higher than the clouds, so the sun finally bathes us with its light.
It was a beautiful morning, isn't it?
I quickly went to the bathroom to wash my face and then decided to make some breakfast in the kitchen of the Inn, the man that owned it was sleeping right now so I sneaked inside the kitchen and put a Deafening Barrier using Wind Magic to deafen any sound to the outside, so he doesn't realize what's happening. I quickly began cooking some classic pancakes, although I also decided to make waffles, I made the mold using the metallic material from my scales, and they're pretty good as well, often crunchier than pancakes, while pancakes are fluffy and like eating cake.
We had brought a lot of stuff to sweeten the pancakes and also the waffles, such as a syrup made out of maple trees, yes, there are maple trees surprisingly, they're also imported from the damn elves, who would had thought they had something like this? I never thought that! And as of now, there's more than just that, there are also orange jam, strawberry jam, candied apple, and more.
So we had a lot of natural sweets to add to pancakes and waffles, and to boot, we had some nice cream to put on top which I made out of egg white by shaking them at ultra sonic speed using my wind magic in a contained space. It is pretty simple to do, I just conjure the "Wind Bullet" Spell but concentrate it in singular place, control the centrifugal force of the wind to shake, all while closing the space of the wind with another spell named "Wind Bubble", and like that, these winds shake the egg whites until they become delicious cream. I also add some sugar and a bit of condensed milk, and done!
Then, I cast off the wind and then wait for the cream to fall back to the pot, and then conjure out the Bubble, and done, it is done so easily! Magic is very convenient to cook, well, of course, there's Cooking Magic after all… Damn, I really like this town too, and I am pretty good at cooking, maybe I should open a restaurant like one of my old ideas, which leads to the interior of a room inside my castle where people can eat all sorts of things, wouldn't it be fun?
Well, for now I'll register as an Adventurer first, I want to see what's this stupid Adventurer job all about and use it as an excuse to go conquer those Dungeons too, why not?
