    <span style="font-weight:400">"What''s the matter with you? You''ve been like that for so long." Nephele turned over to Diana, who had a spaced-out look. And it wasn''t right now, either.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What do you mean?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You''ve been having that spaced-out look when Keith went to the kitchen." Nephele noticed how she was spaced out when they talked.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s nothing." I should do it. Diana made a decision in her mind.


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">The next day, Keith got up; he was ready to prepare breakfast. But when he walked outside, he noticed a burning smell. His eyes widened. Did I not close the stove?! There was no hesitation as his figure blurred, dashing to the kitchen to find out. That was when he saw the cause of this smell.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Woah!" What he saw was a giant fire. And the one who caused this fire was,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ah, hello, Keith!" Diana had a wry face as she held onto the pan.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You can''t cook like that." Keith quickly tossed a towel over the fire, extinguishing it. He closed the knob.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." There was an eirree silence afterwards.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mind telling me what you''re doing?" It was surprising to see it was Diana who caused the fire. This was something he expected the others to do. But Diana, not in a million years.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...I just wanted to cook a meal for everyone." Diana scratched her head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I wanted to pick up all the work you do on the ind. You have a lot of work with you practicing your shield and now constructing the ind. I wanted to be helpful." Diana had seen Keith hard at work. He focused on four things: cooking, practicing with his shield, constructing the ind, and studying. There was a lot on his te.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"But it seems I''m only causing more problems for you." Diana looked at the burnt te of food before her. She tried to cook, but that was the only thing she could produce.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith didn''t say anything, but he walked before the te of burnt something. Without hesitation, he took a spoon and started to gobble it down!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith!" Diana nked out when she saw how the man ate it despite her pleading. She tried to move the te away from him, "Please don''t do it. It will upset your stomach!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">Nam. Keith didn''t listen as he finished the food and cleaned the te. Once he did, the man started to gag!


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">A soft smile soon appeared, "It''s a little salty. But it was a great try for your first time."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Diana blinked. This was great for my first time?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Now then, if you want to cook, I can teach you how?" Keith didn''t mind teaching the spirit how to.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You really like cooking as well?" Her eyes had a light. He could tell that she was excited and enjoyed it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Please!" Diana pumped her fist. She wanted to cook as well.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You can help me out with today''s breakfast. I''m going to go with buffet style. Sunny-side-up eggs and bacon are going to be the go-to today." Simple and easy.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." Diana nodded.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"But the first thing we must do is clean up." The kitchen was filled with flying food. How did you get eggs on the cabs?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood." Diana was embarrassed. So, the two started to clean everything.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"First things first, we will be preparing sunny-side-up eggs. We just need to crack some eggs into the pan." Keith took one egg and cracked it into the pan.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood." Diana took one and was prepared to do the same. But when she did,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ah," The cracked eggs went flying everywhere.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s fine. Just fix your strength the second time." He did the same thing when he started with eggs.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"If you''re a little anxious, you can crack it into a bowl and then pour it into the pan." That was also a simpler method.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Okay." Diana nodded as she cracked the egg into a bowl and poured it into the pan.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yay! I did it!" Diana did a light jump in her ce.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith nodded, "Good. The only thing you need to do is wait and let it cook."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm," Diana stared intently at it. But that caused Keith to scratch his head. Diana, it doesn''t do anything if you stare at it like that. Staring did not help out at all.


    <span style="font-weight:400">After a few minutes,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Why did minee out like this?" The spirit''s eyes nced at her egg and then back to Keith''s. His egg was perfect. Yet hers were burnt.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Did I stare at it for too long?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." A chuckle came out, "But it''s better than what you had cooked before." ck paste to sunny-side-up egg. The difference was uncanny.


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Now, let''s start with the bacon now." There were a lot more things they needed to cook for everyone.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." Diana nodded as she cooked the bacon as well.
