As soon as Maya finally arrived at Evan's house, the girl unhesitatingly started walking towards the kitchen with the chemicals she just bought today. Maya had also informed the chef in charge that she would be the one who cook for dinner. Maya would make everyone eat healthy meals that never exist before, as a thank you gift for what these people had done for her since she started living at Evan's house.
Excitedly, Maya put away some of the previously purchased chemicals in the kitchen and started to bring out the ingredients she wanted for this time. Her eyes immediately brightened, as Maya excitedly started to roll up her sleeves and started washing the vegetables and fruit she picked up while humming a little.
There are a lot of kitchen utensils in Evan's house, so it's very convenient for Maya to make the food she wants to make this time. However, because the food ingredients must be in a sterile state when Maya wants to mix them with the chemicals later, Maya still has to clean them carefully before she goes to the next stage.
Since the vegetables and fruit in the food she made were supposed to be vegetables who have undergone some genetic changes, Maya finally let out some of the chemical liquid she had bought before Maya actually started cooking.
For starters, Maya would like to cook something with the ingredients that she can easily modify. The effect is not as good as the other dishes. However, because Maya didn't have much time on her own, she felt that the dish was enough as the starting menu for Evan's healing program. After all, making food with complex modification will take a lot of time. The laboratory equipment she had just bought would be used for that purpose. So from today onwards, Maya knew she might not has enough sleep until she managed to cultivate the mutated plant she wanted at Evan's house.
"Miss Finola! Mixing all that up..."
The chef who had previously only been standing aside to watch Maya was immediately frightened when the girl fearlessly started mixing chemical ingredients that she herself had no idea what use to the vegetables, as if the girl was an evil witch. Now the chef is starting to suspect, that this harmless cute looking girl is actually a psychopath in the guise of a cute girl who looks normal like any other kid.
Logically, there wouldn't be any normal girl who could casually mix chemical ingredients in her food like what Maya did with her current food. The girl seriously sorted out the vegetables and other groceries she had previously bought. She did various strange methods that the chef couldn't understand. With that, cooking that should be a regular routine now looks scary in the chef's eyes.
For some time, Maya had been focused on doing something with the ingredients she had gathered. Her focus when doing something deserves to be appreciated. Maya didn't make a sound or bothered in the slightest as she worked, until the girl finally stopped and flashed a smile that seemed satisfied with what she had accomplished from her crazy experiment.
It wasn't enough for the chef to be scared there, Maya casually put the food that had changed color due to the girl's actions into her own mouth without the slightest hesitation. The chef's legs went limp from his surprise, when his hand quickly grabbed Maya's hand who was about to take another horrible vegetable to put in her mouth again.
"Miss Finola! Those vegetables... The vegetables won't be edible after Miss... Miss..."
The chef was speechless when he saw the fresh vegetables that Maya had brought before, had now turned into a strange shape and had a strange, scary color like in the horror movies. He never knew that mixing vegetables with some chemicals could change it physique to that extent. The chef involuntarily shuddered, as he took his eyes off from the strange ingredients.
Maya herself, she was actually quite satisfied to see the results of this impromptu work. Evan's chef, however, doesn't seem used to that kind of cooking. Even if the food ingredients she changed were obviously much healthier and beneficial for health, but if she wanted to make Evan willing eat them, it seemed like she had to be able to convince Evan's chef first.
"I just changed the genetic structure so that the benefits of this food source can be fully absorbed by the body, Uncle. No matter what food we eat, usually the body still won't be able to absorb it all right? I changed it just to increase the effectiveness of the ingredients. Look at me Uncle, I'm fine aren't I?"
Evan's chef is a high-class chef that Evan hires dearly to cook at the man's house. But hearing Maya's words, the chef still had trouble understanding what Maya really meant. Turning the existing food into such a monster, the chef didn't know whether Maya's words were true or not this time.
After all, in his entire life, the chef had never heard that someone had discovered the fact that mixing chemicals in certain foods could change the absorption rate of the food itself. Especially until everything can be absorbed. The chef could only guess that Maya was only imagining things this time.
Inevitably, the chef wiped the cold sweat off his own forehead when he had finished making conclusions from Maya's current actions. Hearing that the girl confidently said that she would cook for dinner, the chef initially thought that Maya really knew how to cook. But seeing Maya carelessly mixing the ingredients of the food she was about to cook with chemicals he didn't know about, the chef really regretted not just cooking dinner for her master instead of leaving everything to the girl.
Obviously, Maya was just cooking poison at the moment. The girl looked like a mad scientist experimenting, as Maya happily started to prepare what she was about to cook while humming lightly.
Maya knew that just discussing her theory with the chef would not lead to any settlement. Now that she had the ingredients, Maya began to focus on cooking her dish under the chef's suspicious gaze. Maya cooks everything carefully. Recalling the beautiful-looking dishes that Evan used to eat before, Maya also deliberately arranged her food to make it look appetizing before she arranged the food neatly on the plate.
"You can try it now Uncle. It tastes good, trust me."
This time, Maya really believed in her cooking abilities because the ingredients she needed were all available in this world. Once again Maya tasted the results of her cooking. "Nice." Maya muttered in satisfaction in her heart.
Although Maya looked fine after eating the food, the chef was initially really reluctant to taste the strange food. Although it looks much more pleasing to the eye after Maya cooks and arranges it on a plate, the image of food ingredients turning into something scary still can't leave the chef's mind. He was really still scared even though he just stared at the food on the plate. Even if the food continues to give off an appetizing smell, the chef still not has the urge to try the food on his own.
However, the chef also knew that Maya would be the future bos in a few weeks. He had to eat, if he wants to avoid having problems with Maya in the future.
The chef swallowed his saliva, when he finally tasted the strange dish while continuing to pray that he would survive after trying the strange dish.
When the chef tries one of the dishes Maya has made, it tastes unexpectedly... Really good? As a professional chef, he has obviously tasted a lot of great food throughout his life. But for him to taste something new, it felt like the previously haunting image of a vegetable monster was suddenly erased by the taste of the food itself. The chef subconsciously nodded his head, as he took another mouthful to try another type of food that Maya had made.
More miraculously, the chef did not feel uncomfortable anywhere when he ate the strange food. To the chef, the chemical may have been used simply to create the unique taste in this strange dish. The chef did not know that for Maya, the good taste in food was only an added value because the most important thing was the nutritional value that contained in the food.
"What do you think Uncle? Is my food tasty?" Maya asked when she saw that the chef just continued to eat without any comment. It was only when the chef heard Maya's question that he finally stopped eating and praised Maya in the most sincere way.
"Delicious. This food is very good,Miss Finola. Miss is indeed very extraordinary. Where did you get the idea to mix food with chemicals like that? Ah, but we may still have to test its safety. The food that Mr. Evan eats must be tested very carefuly before Mr. Evan can eat it."
Maya smiled after hearing the chef's words without being offended in the slightest. "I promise that this food is fine, Uncle. I have eaten it for years. It is useful as medicine for sick people in a place where resources are hard to find. I made it for Evan, because he looks sick every time we have to meet."
The chef was silent. Of course Evan had always looked sick all this time. It was predicted that his age would not last more than three years from now. Being able to work and go anywhere is already awesome. If anyone else were to go through the same thing as Evan, the chef was sure they would just lie in bed to spend the rest of their lives in completely misery.
