After entering the mansion, Rui wanted to let Chen around the mansion. After all, her mother wanted to let Chen Shu and other girls stay in the mansion, for the time they are still inside the city.
Where Ralph, Colt, and Ren were going to live in the room Ralph has booked. To which, The three guys' stared at Chen back with weird emotion.
On which Chen! Only smirk in the return to provoke them further.
"Damn! Irritating Bastard." Colt who was leaving swear, but knew, he had nothing to say in this due to Lady Ren.
The captain accepted the invitation, but also asked to leave for some time to manage his subordinate for the time, he would stay in the party. Where Ralph, proposed how he can pick up, Hans for the dinner.
To which Chen Shu was very thankful and nodded at the proposal, also he added to invite those workers too, who had helped to pick up meat for them.
Where he specifically, asked to invite those twins. After all, their talent was something he wanted to train them for and change them into experts under him.
"Are you interested in that girl?" Lady Ren asked as he looked at Chen Shu with an amused expression, to which Chen! Turned and shook his head, as he explained.
"No, but their talent is something, I will be needing in the future. Though, I just don't go around courting girls Lady Ren. After all, it is something about humility too."
"Though, you have 2 girlfriends huh!" Lalay interjected in between as she sneer.
Making Chen Shu a little awkward, but he still nodded at her and spoke in return.
"Yes! Given that, I am not playing around. I actually, do love both of them which is actually quite sarcastic to speak about. So, I have to be true to myself. Hence, I will love them equally, could only be the repentance, I can present to them."
Mai and Lalay were not there, but they were still listening to Chen! From the side of the wall, while their face was beet red, at Chen Shu acceptance. On which, Lady Ren could only smile at that though, as she spoke to her daughter.
"Rui, that's it. I hope we will not push the topic further, where Chen is being so honest about it. Though, it is not something bad, as long as all the girls under Chen accept those feelings. Where even our ancestor Kings, were used to have more than one wives, to the point, some gods also have them."
"So judging them like this, doesn't that make our ancestral king and god also at fault. Though, to avoid, we can just proclaim that those guys were gods and all. But in the end, what? Matters the most is the way how Chen is thinking about this matter."
"Lady Ren, the barbeque set-up is done. Shall, I start cooking the food now then." Chen Shu spoke as he readied the preparation, where he brought out the meat. Which he cut then into thin slices, along with the herb he had bought from the system.
"Chen! What are these herbs from aren't they poisonous at all. Given, we have been testing on a similar subject inside the facility, where the project theme is to find out, about the herbs collected from the jungle after the apocalypse are poisonous or not."
Chen was surprised, after all, the herbs he took out have some poisonous one inside them. Where Lady Ren had picked out every poisonous one among them.
"Yes! You are right lady Ren! They are poisonous ones." Chen nodded at which, everyone present stared at him, with what were you doing then gazes.
"But if heated with specialized Mana heat to a certain degree and mixed with other herbs. They lose their poisonous property, in return, they became something very delicious and very nutritious for Mana users."
Chen smiled and explained patiently, while his hand never stopped grinding the herbs into an herbal paste, which he covered the meat with. Along with the herbs, which were washed clean by Mai and other girls.
He started putting them on the metal slate. Chen! Igniting the fire from his hand, using the mana manipulation, he started to cook the food on the metal slate.
Due to this, the oil which was present in the herbal jelly started to ooze out. Keeping the meat and other vegetables from burning, to which a rich fragrance started to waft around the whole Garden.
Chen was fully concentrated on the vegetable, as he looked at the ripple of heat and controlled everything around the vegetable.
After all, vegetables always tend to burn out, heat and pressure around it do not regulate properly. Which was the hardest part in which, Chen Shu needs to focus properly.
Where the first meat he used was from flying ants which had more nutritious than the normal ants'.
Everyone was shocked to see, after all, he was currently controlling the heat of the whole slab where thousand of meat slabs were placed along with vegetables. Not to say, it is something anyone can pull off.
Soon the meat and vegetables were ready, and Chen Shu picked one meat and a vegetable while eating the whole thing down.
The taste of the food was up to the task, where the juiciness and taste of the whole thing were on another level.
"Guys' you can eat now. It is very delicious." Chen called Lalay and the other girls, where he brought the plate pull of meat and vegetable for Lady Ren.
"Try some, it is very good Lady Ren. After all, it is my proud creation."
Everyone enjoyed the food, and others also started to arrive at the party. Where Mai and Rui started to tend to everyone, given Chen's job was to stare at everyone who approach Mai and Rui intently.
Though he was punished by Lady Ren from time to time. He continued to stare at everyone with a death glare.
Lalay, Mai, and Rui were amused by the way Chen was behaving. Though, everyone knew that Chen was not at wrong, after all, those from universities.
Those who were approaching Rui and Mai especially had an ulterior motive which was written all over their faces. Until. Captain arrived inside the Mansion, along with Hans.
Chen stopped his glare, at the sight of the Captain walking inside the room, where the way he was looking at Chen had changed drastically.
After all, he had heard all the report of Ralph about Chen! Where it was given how powerful and smart Chen's actions were. Not to say the child was truly monstrous to make him aware of his presence.
Which he can never ignore at all. The way he handles water supply while contracting a plant monster. Making a symbiotic relationship with the plant monster.
Chen walked at the entrance and bowed politely as he spoke, "I welcome Captain, to my small party, I had held today. I personally thank you for coming to my invitation. Though, I am very confident in my culinary. Where I can promise, that you won't be able to taste such food around the whole world except here. "
"Haha! Then, I had to thank Captain Shu for inviting me to this party. Hence, I will be looking forward to the dish you have prepared for us."
At which, Lalay served Captain the food, where Hans smiled to Chen! As he dragged the pair of twins, who were standing behind him toward Chen!
"Yo! Look, I had brought them here. You can talk with them, after all, they had left the job of meat collecting under my promise. I hope, you won't go back on your words."
"Who, do you think I am an idiot. I will take care of the rest since both of them are about to join my team." Chen smacked the guy's shoulder where Lena and Lest.
The pair of brothers and sisters looked at Chen Shu, smiling given who does not want to join an adventure team. To which, they were well aware of Chen Shu and his team's strength.
"Are you sure, you want us to join your team? After all, we do not have any combat potential like other Evolvers."
Lest spoke as he walked toward Chen! Who turned to look at them with a smile and nodded at them.
Saying "Of course, I will make you guys into evolvers and will tell you the trick to raise your strength. In the condition of giving me your loyalty."
The captain who was observing them all this time, looked closely at the duo, given he was not able to feel anything different from them. To him, they both seemed to be normal humans, where Chen! Assessment over them seemed to be over the top for him.
Where the others were also looking at Captain, who seemed to be observing Chen very closely, making the existence of Chen Shu more mysterious to them. Where Lena and Lest nodded at Chen Shu's proposal, and Chen smiled to welcomed them. "Then, I will welcome you Lena and Lest into our team."
Seemingly Lest had already met with Ralph, as Ralph welcomed them warmly inside the team. To which, it did not take much time for them to get familiar with each other.
Lest on the other hand was quite enthusiastic while chatting with Rui. After all, it was clear to see that the guy was quite interested in Rui. Since he was also part of the college committee, where Rui is the head researcher of and had been admired for her skills.
Chen! wanted to warn the guy, but looking at mischievous smile Rui, he refrained from doing that.
