As we finished what we had to do, we decided to descend through the Dark Labyrinth, the two elves were tired, so we had to take a twenty-minute break so they could eat and restore their stamina a bit. I had considered acquiring a Cooking Skill, now that I had my phantasmal limbs free, I gave it a try at cooking things. I had packed a lot of things inside of my Item Box anyways, it seemed to be a very rare skill despite me having it from the very beginning, I guess I am a very unique woman caterpillar cocoon thing. They said that Inventory-like Skills were an extreme rarity, obtaining one naturally was impossible unless you were an inborn Space Magician, so it was mostly locked to them. Of course, there are storage items and bags mass produced, but they can't store an endless amount of items such as my amazing [Item Box: Lv--] Skill!

It was one of the few bonus Skills I had from the get-go, there are other Skills as well, which I haven't fully checked but that I can guess are passive skills that don't do anything useful anyways, some are just sitting there to indicate something, I suppose. Increasing my Divinity might unlock more Unique Skills, maybe, but as of now I am concentrated into the cooking part. I opened my Item Box and quickly took out a large piece of monster meat, yep, I had saved all the monster meat from the previous fight, it was all nutritious and has to be eaten! Of course, I used Purification in them so all the nasty stuff is bygone, and any parasite is killed instantly as well through the purification light, so the meat is as good as new.

As I took out the corpses of the Chimaera, a Barbarian Monkey, and the Rhinos, Elfina tried to stop me from doing anything else, as she was terrified with the concept of eating disgusting monster meat. Wait, do you only eat normal animals? Lame.

"Ewww! Why are we eating that?!" Asked Elfina. "Kireina! My aunt gave us a lot of premium beef meat and sheep meat to eat, there's even chicken there as well, and we got eggs, bread, and veggies and fruits. Do you have to cook that disgusting monster meat? And since when do you even cook?"

"Oi Elf, since when did you get so cocky with me?" I asked menacingly, as Elfina felt a chill run down her spine.

"I-I thought we were friends now! Isn't it normal to treat friends like that?" She wondered.

"What sort of broken perception of friendship do you have? You're just giving me orders, I guess that's the princess of all elves for you." I sighed. "Hey, dragon, do you eat monster meat?"

"I usually hunt a large beast twice a week in the forest to eat, I eat a big meal twice a week so I don't need to eat several times a day like most humans, elves, and the other races have to." Said Luminous. "But I guess I could try out your cuisine, if you're so excited about it."

"Since when do you even cook?!" Asked Elfina angrily. "You're a murder machine, do you do anything else than leveling up skills?"

"H-Hey! I used to be a mother of family in my previous world! I cooked tasty food and made all my children happy! I used to be a gorgeous fairy woman too, not this thing. I am still developing but I'm sure I shall eventually turn back into one, and then it will get boring and repetitive again- but that's not the point! A-Anyways, what we are doing right now is cooking, and I am going to make you some delicious food with what we got in the item box… Just you wait and see!" I roared, unpacking everything to make some delicious food, I even bought several magic items that the elves used, some of them created flames and some were even in the shape of a whole modern kitchen.

It seems that some inventions are very similar to Earth because most of the Isekai people that they summoned here spread out these designs and they became widely popular. This would also explain why everyone speak English instead of an otherworldly language like in Genesis. I am pretty sure Genesis people talk in some sort of combination between Greek and Norse speech, very weird, but thanks to the System all languages are automatically translated so communication between species is always possible, there's no cultural barrier in terms of language. Well, mortals were still racists anyways.

"You?! A mother? There's no way…" Said Luminous. "You're a murderhobo, you would make a terrible parent, hahaha!"

"You bastard! I will show you my family one day, all of you will shut your mouths by then!" I roared back at the group of clowns, as even Fiere laughed at me for a bit. I ignored them as I decided to shut their mouths by making some tasty food. I had already practiced my [Phantasmal Aura] Skill a lot, so I was rather aware of how to use its powers and capabilities, it was the same as my previous world's phantasmal aura anyways, so nothing crazy or new about it, I learned how to use it and mastered it in a matter of hours since I got the Skill.

I quickly began to cut down the fresh meat into big slices, which then I sliced into tiny chunks. I soft fried them over a large pot with some oil and then added some spices to the meat. While doing so, I cut down potatoes, carrots, a bit of chili, garlic, onions, and a few aromatic and tasty herbs, alongside small cubes of ham. I poured everything over it and added a bit more of oil, cooking things together. Then, I added a lot of water and salt, and left it resting while everything was being boiled. Of course, I didn't missed adding a lot of bones to make the tasty broth.
