Chapter 137 Let him cook?

Chapter 137 They looked with widened eyes towards the person who said it out, unable to help but feel a little emotional when they saw him speak again.

It was Oliver who once again had an idea about the situation, he was really their go-to problem solver, who once again had an idea.

Both of them felt a surge of gratitude that he was present today with them, or else they might have seriously offended Alison already.

Oliver was the linchpin in their plan to avoid eating the alchemical disaster masquerading as dinner.

No one wanted to risk their lives with that concoction.

They needed to dispose of it discreetly, without arousing Alison's suspicion or causing a mess in their storage artifacts.

So getting rid of this thing was important for them, and they had to do it cleanly so they don't make Alison suspicious of them and their activities but also not start a mess in their storage artifacts either.

Time was of the essence.

They had to act before their mentor returned from settling Daniel upstairs.

The two couldn't help but silently curse Daniel's luck in avoiding this mess due to his condition.

The two could not help but silently curse Daniel about how lucky he was to escape this whole situation just because of his condition.

"I have an idea.

" Oliver said as he glanced towards Nadia who met his gaze, "however, I would need some help…" Nadia met his gaze, a flicker of confusion crossing her otherwise emotionless stare.

"Just hurry up!

The teacher would be down any moment now.

" Amber urged.

"Alright, I will use my element and concentrate this food in a cluster and then Nadia, could you freeze it for me?

This way, Alphonso should be able to store it successfully in his storage artifact without messing around.

" When they heard this, all of them had a hint of realization.

Indeed, that was definitely possible.

All three of them turned their heads to the only girl with the ice element.

Nadia frowned, but on second thought, if she did not help then… She glanced at the 'food' and decided to just aid them for the time being.

Deciding it was better to help than to face the consequences, she nodded.

Oliver quickly got to work… In fact, he could do both these things himself quickly, considering he had the control over both water element and ice element.

Even though he had not trained the ice element much, he was confident in freezing some liquid on his own without any external help.

But they did not need to know about this, at least not right now.

He had just awakened his ice element and had not trained at all in that element either.

Plus, awakening two elements despite being under 10 years of age was an inhumane achievement in this world.

According to the laws and principles of the world, a human would not be able to awaken more than a one element after drinking honorable stars' essence—not until their bodies fully assimilated the awakened element they primarily had awakened.

If there were no such restrictions around, what was stopping the major clans to drown their heirs in honorable stars' essence since birth and let them awaken all elements in the world.

Not only the human's affinity to a particular element mattered but also the how well they would be able to manage the power of more than one element inside their bodies.

A child's body was considered not strong enough to coordinate two elements internally so no matter what, no exorcist was stupid enough to do this stunt especially when the child could just die to due to imbalance of elements in the body.

If someone did not have the affinity with a particular element, then no matter how many vials of essence they devoured, they would not be able to awaken that element.

Similarly, the stronger the element someone primarily awakens, the lesser their chances get to awaken more potent elements in the future, It was believed by the expert exorcists specialized in this field that a stronger primary element establishes a hardcore dominance inside the body of the individual, and further does not allow other weaker elements to exist...

Suppose someone managed to awaken a powerful hybrid element like the Thunder element that Daniel had awakened, then their chances would be lesser as compared to Alphonso, someone who had awakened wind element to hope to awaken a second element.

This was why that individuals with multiple elements were not common.

He felt it was better to have some secret cards exclusive to his knowledge only.

The rhythm of the water resonated within him as the liquid inside the steel contained stirred slowly moving into circles as a small vortex formed at the center and in front of everyone's eyes, the liquid gathered and concentrated into a liquid ball, it was a brown-colored ball of floating liquid.

"Nadia…" he called out to her.

Nadia looked at the spherical ball and her eyes narrowed, his control over water element was surprisingly good.

She could tell this, she would require a lot of concentration to be able to maintain this shape for a long time using liquid ice.

Nonetheless, she pointed her finger towards the floating liquid ball as frost started covering the liquid, slowly freezing the entire ball until it turned into a crystalline ball of brown ice.

"It's done.

" Oliver caught the ball in his hand mid-air before it crashed into the ground and threw it towards Alphonso who caught it in the end moment with some fumbling.

"So cold!

" Alphonso winced, quickly storing the ball in his ring.

He looked at Oliver in surprise; the ice was unnaturally cold.

It was weird, the ice was chilling cold, way colder than some normal ice yet he was fine and he had such a reaction?

Was he that weak compared to Oliver?

He almost believed that he might have gotten a frostbite had he held the ball longer.

"Finally, it's disposed of…" Amber chuckled as she slumped down at her chair.

She was already very tired and now after this stunt, she did not even have the energy to bother around anymore.

Simply too exhausted.

It looked like she would be sleeping empty-stomach, she regretted not storing some food supplies before leaving the clan.

Her eyes trailed to Oliver who was wiping his hands with a towel.

She wondered if he had any arrangements or if he would be sleeping hungry too.

Before she could ask if he had any food, footsteps echoed from the staircase.

Alison was coming down.

They quickly settled back into their seats as Alison entered shortly.

She noticed the empty steel container and raised a brow as she looked at the group.

"You guys already finished it?

" she questioned.

"Ah!

Teacher, it was a decent meal!

We were so hungry that we ate it all.

Hahaha.

" Amber said politely, laughing.

"Y-Yes ma'am, sorry for the lack of decorum," Alphonso added in support.

"Hmm…" Alison hummed and looked at the other three who just remained silent.

"Well, it's good that you liked the food.

" she smiled and said.

"Now get back to your room and prepare for tomorrow's training.

" With that, she left the room leaving the group in silence.

Growl… Rumble… A rumbling noise of stomach sounded in the silence—it was true that all of them were hungry.

But now what?

"Ahem, does anyone know how to cook?

" Alphonso questioned.

"My sister does…" Evelyn spoke but Bella was not there at the moment so it was not helpful.

"Are you kidding me?

How do you expect literal kids like us to know how to cook?

" Amber frowned, crossing her arms against her chest.

"Well… Bella does, but she is not here haha.

" Alphonso laughed lightly but he was really hungry.

Oliver sighed as he looked at the them, "I can cook.

" "Really!?

" Alphonso's expression changed as his face lit up in delight, he stared at Oliver with anticipation.

Amber also stared at him with surprise, she did not expect him of all people to be familiar with such a skill.

"Can you please make us something?

" Alphonso blushed a little, "Sorry, if I sound weird…" He knew that Oliver was equally tired as them but he could not help but ask in hope.

He did not want to sleep hungry.

He was exceptionally courteous when he asked.

"Cook with what?

Do you have the ingredients?

" Oliver questioned, looking at Alphonso as if he were a clown.

How did he expect to make food without ingredients?

"…Ah!

" This realization instantly hit them hard, washing their dreams with a bucket of cold water.

"However…" Oliver let out a smile as he looked at the disappointed group of people.

"I do remember storing some food before leaving my clan.
