Mystery: Chaos Path

"That's great! This way, I won't have to turn into a monster." Fors felt a great sense of relief. She was so excited that she couldn't fall asleep. After pacing around her room several times, she finally couldn't resist running to Hugh's door, wanting to knock and share the good news with her best friend. Her hand was already on the door, but she hesitated, wondering if she should wake Hugh up.

Maybe I should wait until tomorrow to tell Hugh?

Just as Fors was thinking, the door in front of her suddenly opened. Hugh, a head shorter than her, appeared, her expression a mix of sleepiness, confusion, and a hint of worry.

Hugh yawned and sized up her best friend, who was not sleeping in the middle of the night, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"So you weren't asleep either!" Fors said almost subconsciously, her tone tinged with surprise.

Hugh: ...

Hugh tightened her grip on the doorframe. She ground her teeth, glared at Fors, and said, "Is there a possibility that I was asleep, but the commotion you made was too loud?"

She was sleeping soundly, but suddenly heard noises coming from Fors's room, and then discovered that Fors had run to her door. She was worried that something had happened, so she got up, okay?

Fors was immediately embarrassed, remembering how she had been jumping around in her room just now in excitement. She shifted her gaze guiltily, coughed, and said, "Sorry, then should I let you go back to sleep?"

"Just tell me what happened? I won't be able to sleep for a while anyway." Hugh wasn't really angry. She glanced out the window, and when she looked back at Fors, her expression was tinged with worry.

Hugh knew about the Full Moon Groaning, so she was worried if something had happened again.

"Hugh, let me tell you, the Full Moon Curse is gone. I can't hear those groans anymore." Fors immediately excitedly shared the good news with Hugh.

Hugh was stunned for a moment. Hearing the good news, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Really?"

"Of course, it's true!" Fors nodded repeatedly and said with relief, "So I don't have to worry about turning into a monster anymore."

"Turning into a monster?" Hugh was instinctively happy for her best friend, but then she narrowed her eyes like a fox, looked at Fors, and asked, "Didn't you tell me before that it wasn't that serious anymore? How could you turn into a monster..."

Fors immediately felt guilty.

Oh no, I've been exposed.

"Honesty is rewarded, resistance is punished. Confess!" Hugh said without any politeness, exuding the aura of an Arbiter. Even though she was only 1.5 meters tall, she had the presence of a 2.8-meter tall person at that moment.

...

Although a "trial" was triggered because of a slip of the tongue, Fors was still very happy to be rid of the Full Moon Groaning.

Because of this relaxed mood, she even got up early the next day to go to the market, and bought a crystal ball that looked very beautiful at a small stall.

Although the stall owner said that it was a family heirloom, Fors obviously didn't take the sales pitch seriously. She bought the crystal ball purely because she learned from Gehrman Sparrow that the Apprentice's Sequence Seven was Astrologer. Although she was only Sequence Eight, and didn't know when she would be promoted, she had to consider it for the future.

And the crystal ball, like the diviner's pendulum, was a tool that an Astrologer might use.

Of course, the main reason was that the owner sold it relatively cheaply.

"You actually got up so early today. Did the sun rise from the west?"

Back at the apartment, Hugh, who had already finished her morning exercise, was eating breakfast. Seeing Fors returning from the market, she looked quite surprised.

After all, someone always sleeps in every day. Getting up early is really rare.

"Can't I be happy and get up early today? It's not like I sleep in every day." Fors muttered, but her mood was still very good. She sat on the sofa and began to play with the newly bought crystal ball.

"But why did the Full Moon Groaning suddenly disappear? Is God really blessing me..." Fors played with the crystal ball and couldn't help but think. After thinking for a while, she put her hands together and sincerely said, "God, please bless me to buy the Astrologer potion formula as soon as possible."

After saying this, Fors laughed at herself and couldn't help but mutter, "What am I thinking? How can I pray to God for this kind of thing..."

At the same time, in a villa in Backlund—

Klein, who was eating breakfast, was stunned for a moment, because he seemed to hear a strange prayer in his ear. This made Klein almost instinctively look at Leonard.

"Why are you looking at me? Is the breakfast not to your taste?" Feeling Klein's gaze, Leonard stirred the porridge in his bowl casually, and said with a smile, "Actually, I'm a little tired of it too, Audrey. Can you make something new tomorrow? Can you fry youtiao?"

Medici, who was also at the table, glanced at Leonard when he heard this, and said unhappily, "You gluttonous guy has no right to speak."

Then he frowned and said, "What is youtiao?"

Leonard immediately explained with great interest, not only explaining what youtiao was, but also popularizing a series of Chinese breakfasts, including ziba, xiaolongbao, fried dumplings, and tofu pudding. Finally, he sincerely put his hands together and said, "Please, Medici Mommy, I really need Chinese breakfast."

天天 吃 西式 早餐 ， 罗林 真 的 吃 腻 了 ！

"Can't you have some dignity?" Medici's mouth twitched, and he said unhappily.

"Dignity is not worth mentioning in front of food." Leonard said seriously, and after thinking about it, he added, "Of course, if you don't know how to make it, I can teach you. It's very simple."

"Klein, you can make these?" Klein couldn't care less about the mysterious prayer for a moment, and looked at Leonard in surprise.

"I can!" Leonard nodded. Of course, he could make these. Before he crossed over, he had countless vests, one of which was a chef. Because of this, Leonard's cooking skills were actually very good, especially in Chinese cuisine.

However, making Chinese food in this world was too troublesome. In addition, Leonard was really busy, so he didn't bother with it.

But now that there was a ready-made cook, Leonard didn't mind teaching his skills to Medici to improve his daily life.

After thinking about it, Leonard looked at Medici and added, "I'm also good at Russian cuisine, Audrey. Don't you want to learn the cuisine of the Sun God's hometown? Maybe you'll have a chance to make it for Sasrir in the future!"

Medici raised his eyebrows, seemingly moved.

In the Third Epoch, Medici had heard Sasrir mention the dishes of the Old Era. He still remembered the longing and regret in the other party's eyes when he talked about those things.

If he could reproduce those dishes from Sasrir's hometown, would Sasrir be happy?
