    <span style="font-weight:400">It was not hard to imagine what had urred. The scorch marks on the floor just gave them an idea. Diana was going to speak when she smacked Nephele''s head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What was that for?!" Nephele held her head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you think I wouldn''t notice you getting closer to the smoker?" While she exined, Nephele inched closer. The great spirit didn''t react like the lion or dragon, but it was simr enough!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Grrrr! A resounding sound came from Nephele''s stomach before a cry came.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m hungry! I haven''t had anything to eat!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Alfia and the others nced at their stomachs. This was true; no one had a thing to eat.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Stop acting like a child." Diana shook her head. When she scolded her,


    <span style="font-weight:400">Grrrrrr!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Pure silence.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I think your stomach is saying something entirely different," Nephele muttered.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"My stomach isn''t saying anything!" Diana retorted! It was as if this was the start of a drum beat because,


    <span style="font-weight:400">Grrrr! The other stomachs started to rumble.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Why does he always make such delicious things?!" Alfia grumbled as she grabbed her stomach. Sarah and Faelyn grabbed their stomachs with red cheeks. No one could me them.


    <span style="font-weight:400">All the food Keith made had such an incredible scent. It was making their stomachs growl. But this one took the cake.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Saphr, Agi! You guys can''t go near it." The elf saw how her two spirits were going a little crazy because of the smell. Those two spirits were avid meat lovers.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The two calm down as they stay by her side. But they were jittering around. The thing was too delicious to pass up!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Where did Keith go?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"He said he would be cooking some things to match the meat."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Really?" He was going to add more to it?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." As they spoke, Keith returned to the backyard.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I brought some things back." Keith grinned as he brought some assortments out.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm? What were you cooking?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I made some side dishes to go with the meat. A little heavy. However, I think it should be fine." Keith made dishes to help with the meat. He had mashed potatoes, sunnyside-up eggs, and other things.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Is the thing ready?" Cadmus blurted out as he stared at the smoker.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." When did youe back?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s ready now. I''m going to take it out." Keith walked over to the smoker. The bacon had been smoking for hours. Perfect to try.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Opening it up, everyone froze!


    <span style="font-weight:400">It was the day of smacking; it was done by none other than smoke! It did a two-hitbo on their cheeks! Cadmus and Herrick were going crazy. How could this be so aromatic?!


    <span style="font-weight:400">The other''s reaction to it was milder but more than enough!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith took the giant piece of bacon and noticed their expression as he raised his hand, "Hold your horses; there''s something else I need to do."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What?!" "You''re killing us!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What else do you need to do?" Gabriel gulped as he stared at that meat. He could tell if they ate it now; it was more than perfect.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m going to do some testing. I''m going to sear it." Keith grinned as he headed off. But as he was leaving, the others grabbed his hand, "Where are you going with that meat?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Rx, I''m only bringing it to the kitchen." Hearing his words, everyone rxed. Thest thing he had to do was cook it in the pan. Crispy bacon was the best.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith sliced the bacon into strips and then ced some on the pan. The sounding from the pan was terrific! It was a pleasant sound. As he watched the bacon, "Guys, you need to calm down. I''m not going to eat it."


    <span style="font-weight:400">While he cooked, Keith was surrounded by everybody! He got Cadmus, Jack, Herrick, and Melor inside the building. And the rest were outside by the window. They were all staring at him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Can''t trust you. Who knows if you eat it!" Cadmus was not a fool. He couldn''t trust Keith! This man might sneak one before them!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hah," Keith sighed as he continued to cook. Once finished, he ced the bacon on a sheet of paper, letting the oil seep out. But the moment he did, Cadmus swiped, taking at least two.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Principal!" The others stared at him! So fast! This guy had taken the food without a chance for them!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"So delicious! It''s crispy and chewy." The crunch from the bacon was incredible.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Alright, I''m done here." It was crispy enough. He didn''t need to do anything else with it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, what about the other half?" Gabriel noticed how Keith only used half of the meat.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, I''m leaving that to eat alone." Keith grinned. He picked up the tes, "Now, let''s go and eat." Thinking about it, it was better to eat in the dining room.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"On it!"
