Once he arrived in the kitchen he looked around, then put Shiro down, he knew that there weren't the ingredients to make what he wanted, so he looked at his inventory, and found two wrapped gift icons, just as he was about to take ome out, when he made contact with the icon it glowed and disappeared, ingredients for pancakes replaced it and he took them out
People were slightly surprised from the items that appeared but decided to not question it as magic makes many things in the world strange, and as he finished getting everything out he asked "how can I make something with these?"
People stared at him in disbelief, wondering why he decided to make his own food but didn't know how to make it, "I never cooked before" Shin said, getting rid of their confusion, so a man came up to him and told him what to do
He put 100g plain flour, 2 large eggs, 300ml milk, vegetable oil and salt into a bowl, then whisked it until it formed a smooth batter
After he set a medium frying pan or over a medium heat and wiped it with some oiled kitchen paper.
When it became hot, he cooked his pancake batter for 1 min on each side until he saw they were golden, he took them out
Finally he took caster sugar out, putting some in the pancake, and when he did he heard something
[Skill: Cooking Gained]
Ignoring the notification of his new skill, he put the pancakes down, saying "thank you" to the man who helped him, "no problem, do you mind if I try your pancake to see how good it is?" The man replied, waiting for an answer, and after seeing Shin nod, he took a bite out of the pancake, and immediately passed out
Shin looked at the pancake, and tasted it, and then immediately burned it "was it that bad" Shiro, who still hasn't left, asked
"It was worse than bad, I think I might have met death" Shin said, but he said it in his normal flat tone making the others ember if it was that bad or not, but seeing the unconscious man they knew that it must've been bad, but they didn't know the reason was because he added to much salt
Shin opened the other gift and found ingredients for something he makes when he normally cooks, and he had high confidence to make this, so he went ahead and made a chocolate cake
"Can I have some?" Shiro asked, smelling the delicious chocolate, but Shin saw his gluttonous gaze on his cake, and told him "mine" eating the cake slowly to savour it
But the child wouldn't take that answer, and tried to grab the cake, and while everyone in the room would try to stop they where do entranced by the aroma of the only thing that Shin could bake
Shin ate the cake while keeping it away from Shiro, who kept trying to steal it, eventually they started fighting, and Shin's grip on the plate the cake was on became loose, it feel it of his hand and flipped in the air, landings with the uneaten half on the ground, but at least the plate was fine
Shin picked the cake up, and said with tears in his eyes "goodbye friend" then poured pure magic into it, and since the cage couldn't handle that much magic it was consumed by it

Shin was outside, dragging a struggling Shiro behind him, he let himself wander, and when he or Shiro found found something they were interested in, they went there and sometimes bought things from the stores
Shin found more ingredients for cane and bought what he could, then put them in his inventory, and things were going fine until he heard someone
"Hey skinny kid, what are you doing with my property" then a hand grabbed him and forcefully turned him around "you're quite the looker, If you give me your body and the pendant back, I might forgive you"
Shin looked at the fat man in front of him, and told Shiro "let's go" and tried to turn around, the fat noble tried to keep a grip on Shin, not allowing him to leave, and although he wasn't strong he was heavy enough to have some grip on Shin, but Shin used some more force and the man felt his hand almost rip off and instinctually took his hand off him, but he grew angry "how dare you disobey me, when I get back you will definitely regret this" the fat noble said and walked into his car, leaving in anger
Shin kept walking, and Shiro followed behind, with a slightly fearful look, but tried to hide it, he looked at Shin with slight admiration of how he was able to make a noble go away, he looked at the pendant and was strangely attracted to the blue gem, he was about to ask about it but then saw Shin put it inside his armour, and thought that maybe he shouldn't
They got to another store and Shin asked him "what do you want?"

In a room in a castle, a woman with blue hair, azure eyes, pale skin, and although not an hourglass figure, was just perfect, sat down on a chair, smiling while looking at the mirror
Behind her Char stood up, gently combing her hair, as they were silent, but honestly no words needed to be said, as their love for each other could be felt just by looking at them, and any noise would ruin this beautiful moment
Half an hour passed, and Char was looking at her putting on her makeup, he never knew why she would wear it, she always looked beautiful, and makeup didn't make him feel more attracted to her, but he never questioned her as he knew she enjoyed it, and it always made things seem so peaceful, seeing that the biggest problem Infront of him was something so simple
The woman finished, her ocean blue butterfly wings making her seem like a fairy, she turned to Char with a longing "welcome back" she told him, as if they were seperated for years, Char looked at her and smiled, slightly laughing, and told her "I haven't been out for that long"

Name: weapon intent
Description: when a person masters a weapon to a certain point, they can produce an intent, that although it's slightly weaker then using a sword skill that would take the same effort to use, the weapon intent can be used without the weapon, and even replace the weapon, but it's best at amplifying a weapon
How to obtain: practice, there is no way to skip this stage and talent becomes irrelevant, if there was someone who became a sword master in 3 days and someone who became a sword master in 3 years, the one with the most foundation, experience, training, and effort would get it faster and it would start more powerful
Extra:
•can be combined with weapon skills
•exists for all known weapons
•unique to both the weapon and user
•anyone can learn it, even if they aren't master's in using the weapon
(Some thanks to HuskyWarrior for giving me the idea to write about this, and read his novel Reborn Might Guy, of you're reading this on webnovel)
