Chapter 237: A New Supernatural Field

Under the control of the Spell Hand, the White-Fire Toothed-Tongue Flower Ash was sprinkled evenly over the Magic Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu.

The moment the shimmering dish came into contact with the ash, a wondrous chemical reaction seemed to occur.

Extreme umami and a flame-like spiciness instantly transformed the dish into the super-spicy, super-savory Flaming Magic Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu.

Ace looked at the tenderized steamed egg and the hot, burning surface layer, involuntarily swallowing his saliva. He activated the Soul Spell Mana Sensitivity. In the vision of the Soul Spell, this dish, possessing extreme umami and spiciness, was actually flickering with some vague rune structures!

“Why can food also give birth to runes and rune structures? What exactly do runes represent? Can we hypothesize that any field, once it reaches the supernatural level, will birth corresponding runes?”

Looking at this spoonful of meat and egg, which could already be called a supernatural item, Ace took a gentle bite.

Tender as a beauty’s skin, hot as scalding magma. The meat paste with extreme elasticity and the delicious tofu carrying colorful flavors intertwined in his mouth with their textures. His taste buds exploded instantly.

Mana gathered in his mouth, bringing an invisible rhythm that triggered certain rules of the world, seemingly celebrating the birth of a new supernatural field.

A faint favor from the World Source swept past, merging into the dish in Ace’s mouth, elevating this cuisine by several tiers.

Ace felt as if he were in an illusion, entering an indescribable state of gustatory pleasure and enjoyment. In just a few seconds, the mysterious runes on the dish took effect.

The gourmet food turned into liquid, fermenting in his mouth. Ace reluctantly swallowed it into his stomach. Boom!

A tremor from the soul. After the ultimate enjoyment, he felt his body actually recover slightly.

Gourmet food can repair or even slightly elevate the level of life?

Ace was greatly shocked. He activated Insight Perception to carefully observe the changes in his body.

The fluid from the food entered Ace’s blood circulation through the folds of his stomach lining, carrying a certain rule-based power, nourishing his body. Although the amount was small, it clearly broke some kind of restraint and elevated the foundation of his body.

“I seem to have experienced this mysterious feeling before!”

Ace thought of when he wrote his first magic paper, Spellcasters—A Systematic Study of Corrosive Hyenas. When he completed that article, he also felt a sense of some mental restraint being broken.

What is lost in the east is gained in the west!

Ace thought. The almost irreversible damage to his body’s foundation caused by the ascension of his soul level was largely repaired at this moment.

Ace clearly felt that although his body was still weak and his foundation not fully recovered, the state akin to constant bleeding had ended. As long as he replenished enough nutrition, his body should be able to recover.

Ace sprinkled the remaining White-Fire Toothed-Tongue Flower Ash, took a few more bites. The rune structures, Mana rhythm, explosive taste, and body-nourishing effects were still there, but the effect of breaking restraints and elevating the foundation had disappeared.

“This Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu with added White-Fire Toothed-Tongue Flower Ash can be called Flaming Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu. Everyone, taste it.”

Hearing Ace’s words, everyone scooped a spoonful. The ultimate deliciousness conquered them instantly, and the effective nourishment of their bodies surprised them even more.

“This food actually has mysterious rune structures and beneficial magical effects, nourishing the body and soul. This is true Magical Cuisine!”

A Wizard Apprentice exclaimed in admiration after activating Lesser Insight Perception.

“Logan, it was you who discovered the seasoning effect of the ash, indirectly creating this magical cuisine. You shall lead the other apprentices present to assist in writing a paper on Magical Cuisine. How about it?”

Ace proposed, looking at Logan and the other apprentices. He hoped everyone present could obtain the corresponding patents for magical cuisine. Food that could improve the body and soul was bound to become popular among all Wizards in the future.

As for Ace himself, as the owner of the High Tower Territory and the Mentor of all Wizards, the richer and more diverse the territory became, and the more varied the paths of Wizards, the more beneficial it was for him.

After all, all patents, transactions, and so on contributed tax revenue.

Ace sprinkled the ash on the remaining meat and egg, making the authentic magical cuisine Flaming Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu, then filled a transparent Mana Crystal bowl with it and returned to the secret room.

In the Sea of Illusion and Reality, the bored crystal-clear creature watched the flickering Magic Array in front of Him, His patience gradually running out. He allocated a little power to maintain the operation of the Magic Array while speaking angrily in a childish voice:

“Making Me wait so long and consuming My precious energy. If you cannot satisfy Me, I will grab you through the spatial barrier and make you keep Me company in this Sea of Illusion and Reality.”

Just then, a light flashed from the Magic Array. Ace returned to the secret room. Although the physical problem wasn’t completely solved, seeing hope for recovery made Ace much more relaxed.

As the Magic Array drew closer, Ace felt the heaviness of the air. It seemed that because of the long time elapsed, the aura of that powerful existence had become even more terrifying and elusive.

“Did the long wait anger that existence?”

Ace felt somewhat suffocated. Conducting equivalent exchange with a powerful creature was too difficult. Although the returns would be huge, it was also extremely dangerous!

“You actually made Me wait so long! Unless you prepared super, super delicious food, prepare to play with Me in the Sea of Illusion and Reality for a lifetime!”

The crystal-clear creature finally saw Ace return. He instantly controlled Ace through the Magic Array, extending a childish claw. Surprisingly, He used Mana to form a giant Crystal Claw in the secret room on the other side of the spatial barrier.

Inside the secret room, Ace heard a voice full of majesty striking directly at his heart. The tangible Crystal Claw formed by Mana appeared suddenly, occupying almost the entire space of the secret room.

“Insect, you made Me wait long. If there is no food that satisfies Me, you shall come personally to serve Me.”

Listening to the somewhat creeping words, Ace was not particularly terrified. Instead, he stared at the tangible Crystal Claw.

It looks a bit like a lion’s claw. What kind of creature is on the other side?

Then he buried this thought deep in his heart. He placed the Flaming Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu in the large bowl with a 50-centimeter radius onto the Sacrifice Magic Array, then activated the Sacrifice and Summoning Magic Arrays.

Ace himself could not perform reverse summoning, but the crystal-clear creature across the spatial barrier could easily achieve it. Through sacrifice positioning, He reversed the effect of the Summoning Magic Array.

Accompanied by the pulse of Mana, space began to distort invisibly. About a minute later, the Flaming Steamed Egg with Minced Meat and Tofu disappeared.

The one-meter-tall crystal-clear creature looked at the Mana Crystal bowl that had suddenly appeared, which was about as tall and large as Himself, and sniffed the aroma.

“There is flame, fragrance, smoothness, elasticity… and it seems to contain some special Mana rhythm. I’m digging in!”

The crystal-clear creature flew above the large Mana Crystal bowl, opened His big mouth, took a fierce bite, and chewed vigorously. The tenderness He had never experienced before, the heat He had never experienced before—the taste and the texture of the ingredients intertwined in the crystal-clear creature’s mouth. His taste buds exploded instantly.
