Chapter 1105 Zephy Goes Through The Blood Bath Ritual Too!
-----
"I can't believe you can come out with such simple yet delicious recipes, my princess. I love the burgers! So soft and crunchy! And the veggies inside really are nice." My father complimented my cooking yet again.
"I agree, you also added a lot of spices, yet it doesn't feel overly flavorful either. Everything melds together quite nicely." My mother nodded. "I have taught you a lot of cooking, but you do have a lot of talent yourself! Your imagination is what makes it possible for you to create these recipes."
"And they have different flavors too, I've noticed! Like some have different grades of spiciness. Some have white onions; others have more garlic…" Nepheline said, eating two cheeseburgers at the same time, while snacking on potato fries.
"Yeah, we made a lot of different ones, we experimented with combined flavors and ingredients." I nodded.
"I made a lot too!" Aquarina said pridefully. "I made the purple onion and garlicy ones. I also made the tiny ones! Sylphy named them Chicken Nuggets."
"I can tell, they're the tastiest." Shade nodded, eating a cheeseburger. He really just loved everything his daughter made. "And Chicken Nugget? That's a rather funny sounding name."
Actually it was Alice who said they were like Earth's "chicken nuggets" so I called them like that. She was right next to me, sitting over the table and snacking on a big burger all on her own. I could notice her belly was growing a bit fatty, so I touched it a bit. It was very cute.
"You're getting a bit bigger, huh?" I giggled.
"H-Hey! I don't get fat! This'll be absorbed soon enough." She said, munching on the big burger.
"Okay, hahah." I laughed, noticing all my Familiars and friends were enjoying the meals. The atmosphere was nice and relaxing, the night was beautiful too, showing the stars and the full moon.
However, I suddenly noticed something. "Oh, the legs are almost ready now!" I ran to pick them up. As I started bringing them to the table, my mother talked about what everyone was interested on the most.
"The Phoenix will take a little while." My mother said. "But once we can eat it. We better eat everything, that'll help our physique's cultivation soar, similarly to the dragon you once ate." My mom said. "I want to give a blood bath to Zephyrus later, he's still young and developing, so it should have some effects."
"E-Eh? A blood bath?!" Zephy was a bit scared. "That's a bit disgusting, mom…"
"Come on now, dear. You were unable to bathe in the blood of a dragon because we were all out of it back then." My mother said. "So this is your new opportunity to bathe in the blood of a legendary tier 10 monster. Don't miss it. Your physique could improve drastically with the power of a Phoenix."
"I don't know if he's compatible though." My father said. "Sylphy was because she inherited my fire attribute affinity. But Zephy has darkness and blood so…"
"Affinity doesn't matter, its powers will adjust to them over time." My mother reassured him. "Don't worry, dear. It won't be that much of a bother."
"Uuuhh… Ugh, fine." Zephy sighed. "B-But you better make me some cake afterwards mom!"
"Hahaha! Okay, I'll make your favorite. Pistachio cake." My mom nodded.
"Yaaay!" Zephy instantly got happier.
A Phoenix Physique… Now that sounds amazing. Zephy should do that asap. I guess he wouldn't want to do it in front of mom and dad though. I can understand that, but he needs to do that so he can grow stronger.
For some reason I can't give him a System, and that somehow worries me. So if he can improve his physique and gain a Phoenix Trait to it, it would be for the better!
Anyways, as we ate the giant legs of the firebirds, another hour and a half passed. And the phoenix meat was finally done.
"It's finally done! Sorry for the wait, everyone! Let's eat!" My mother brought the Phoenix piece by piece.
My mother prepared it all. The breast meat, the legs, and everything else. Even the wings had enormous quantities of meat. The entire creature was stripped clean of all meat. Even the organs were cooked.
"Yes! Finally!" My father screamed in euphoria.
"It's here, at long last!" Nepheline was just like him.
"Smells good." Shade nodded.
"I have to eat a lot of its meat if I want to inherit this monster's Spirit into my transformation…" Ninhursag nodded. My mother had given her part of the Phoenix's magic crystal, enough for Ninhursag to channel its powers and transform once she consumed enough of their meat.
We stuffed ourselves with the delicious meat, it was like a wonderful combination between chicken and beef. The spices mother used, coupled with her cooking magic, made everything even more amazingly tasteful.
"Oooh! This is so good! What the hell?! Can't stop eating this!" Zack laughed.
"Zack, give me some of that piece too, please!" Mist was gluttonously devouring the meals.
"Amazing, so delicious!" Luck wolfed everything he grabbed.
"Even I find it tasty, it is so full of Mana!" Lara said.
"Quite delicious, yes!" Celica nodded.
"I never thought I would eat this fancy in my whole life…" Celeste gulped.
"This is good!" Zephyrus agreed.
With each bite, we could feel the power of the Phoenix coursing through my body. Even though I wasn't receiving its full power, my Physique was being swiftly cultivated.
However, my mother had saved the best parts for Zephyrus. The Phoenix's Heart, its Eyes, the Tongue, and the Blood was all what she analyzed would bring his physique to absorb its powers.
The slimes also feasted with us, in a state of craze as they realized they were eating the damned monsters that forced them to hide and starve for so long. It was as if they were finally taking revenge on them by eating them, which was quite funny.
"Hahhh… I'm all stuffed." Aquarina patted her big belly. "Ugh, I'm so sleepy…"
"Me too… Ugh." I groaned. "W-We ate too much."
The night arrived, and as we finally finished eating, we felt completely full. I slowly made my way to the camp we set around the Oasis, the slimes going back to their city for now. They already talked with Pyuku, and agreed to come to Agartha with us after realizing how dangerous this monster-infested continent was.
We made our way back to the camp with Aquarina and then went immediately to sleep. We practically passed out due to the enormous influx of Mana and Power we gained after eating all of that.
However, my sleep felt so fast that from one day to the next, I woke up, feeling the heat of the desert hitting hard against the tent. I yawned, stretching my hands. And decided to walk to the Oasis to wash my hands, where I found Aquarina just taking a bath there, without clothes.
"Ooh, Sylphy! Awake early today too?" She winked at me. "Come, let's bathe together in the oasis while everyone's sleeping." She invited me.
She really looked like a beautiful Spirit of an Oasis, seducing me to enter and bathe with her.
And quite honestly, it was hard to resist.
"Alright~" I threw away my clothes and dipped into the cold water with her.
I couldn't miss this opportunity.
