    <span style="font-weight:400">"What are you going to be making now, Keith?!" Fira tugged on Keith''s sleeve. The others were curious as to what Keith was going to cook.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m going to make tomato pasta." Keith didn''t say much about it. But the name was enough to get the message across. Keith took a giant pot and poured some water into it. I need to boil them first.


    <span style="font-weight:400">While the tomatoes boiled, Keith diced some onions and sauteed them with butter.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Butter is the best," May stated. Gus nodded to that. Whenever Keith threw in some butter, the smell was incredible.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It smells so nice!" This was the first time Fira smelled something so great. May exined, "That is something the young master created. It''s called butter. It''s incredibly delicious."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?" Fira tilted her head, "What else did Keith make?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">May started to list off the foods Keith cooked. Thetter took out some orc meat and diced it up. It didn''t take long for the b to get minced. He tossed it into the onion mixture to cook it together.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gus, watch over the orc meat. Let the two brown." "Understood, Boss!" Keith turned to the tomatoes. He peeled the skin off the tomatoes.


    <span style="font-weight:400">He cored the tomatoes and sliced them into quarters. Once he finished with the tomatoes, Keith wiped the seeds. He was definitely going to nt it again. With how the tomatoes tasted, there was no way he would throw them away!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Boss, the meat is done cooking." Keith nodded, "Pour it into a pot." Gus nodded and tossed the mixture in.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Now, I need to do this." Keith created a wind sphere in his hand. He ced it into the bowl of tomatoes. Like that, the tomato started to turn into a sauce.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Now, to pour it in. Keith poured the tomatoes into the pot. He added some herbs as well. I need to emphasize the taste of the tomato.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith continued to stir the pot so the cause wouldn''t get burnt at the bottom.


    <span style="font-weight:400">As he stirred, the smell started to heighten! May and Gus''s expressions were excited as they stared at the red sauce.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gus, boil some pasta." "Understood!" Gus got to work. The sauce was enough to excite his appetite. May and Fira were staring at the pot with eager eyes.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Young Master, when are we going to eat?" "Yeah! I''m hungry." Fira added. The two couldn''t hide their excitement as they continued to stare.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"In a few minutes," Keith answered with a calm look as he continued to stir.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Boss, the noodles are done."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good, let me te it." Keith smiled as he took a fork and twirled it around. He ced it on the te. Andstly, Keith poured the sauce onto the top.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Now that''s finished, let''s work on the others." Tomato pasta wasn''t the only thing he would prepare!


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, what happened to the garden?" Sophia and William questioned. They couldn''t believe it. They saw what happened outside. It became a small forest.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Well, you see. The vegetables were grown a little too much. I didn''t realize something like this had happened. But the vegetables were delicious!" Keith stated with an excited expression.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...I see." Keith was dodging the question. But hearing how the vegetables became delicious, there was no need to ask more.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Please bring the dishes in!" The maids brought in the dishes.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"There''s three this time?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. I made three dishes today. That''s tomato soup, tomato pasta, and the tomato itself."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"They all look so vibrant." Sophia smiled. The dishes were pleasing to look at.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Please dig in." Keith smiled. Like that, they started to eat. Fira sat at the table. Keith handed her a spoon for her to eat from.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"So delicious," Derek stated out loud. He was eating the pasta. The meat and tomato blended together gave a sweet and savory taste.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"The soup is delicious as well." While Derek was in awe of the pasta, Sophia focused on the tomato soup. She tasted it, and it was smooth.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I added some milk to smooth it out," Keith exined.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And what did you do to this one?" William pointed at the tomato.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I didn''t do anything," Keith answered. It was a regr cherry tomato. But Keith had cut it in a way to look like a flower.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let me try." When William bit into it, it popped into his mouth! The juices from the tomato filled his mouth.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How were you able to get vegetables like this?" Sophia questioned. She couldn''t believe it. She had a tomato before. And this tasted nothing like it!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Everything was because of Fira." Keith smiled as he pointed at her. The vegetables were incredibly delicious because of her. The three stared at the spirit. Her face was covered red from the tomato soup.
