Going back to normal life after a series of high-octane experiences filled me with nothing but apathy and exhaustion.
I just didn't have any mental resilience left to face the challenges of the day.
For now, however, I had nothing better to do but try to make the most out of my breakfast, or rather, of my dinner.
When boiled down, this, in a way, was an essence of life. One aspect of it that was so mundane, hardly anyone paid it any attention.
If I wanted to have energy, I actually had to eat energetic food. And ever since I became a cultivator, no matter just how much the villa's chefs tried, it just…
It wasn't enough.
Sure, the taste was insane for my peasant mouth, but the food somehow… was lacking.
