Volume 3.5 Chapter 4: Magic Is Useful For Cooking

"They're good to go," Keith smiled as he took them off the pan. He took out a big chunk of ham. He turned to everyone, "How many slices do you guys want on your muffin?" 

"Two slices!" Fira stated. 

"I will take two as well," Diana added.

"Ho!" Aria sounded. 

"Alright, five for you," Keith chuckled and turned to Mir, "And I guess you don't want any?"

"Po!" Mir jumped up and down. That was a yes.  

Keith sliced the ham into thin pieces. The thickness was like paper. He placed them onto the pan, letting it fry. It didn't take long. 

With how thin they were, the ham cooked quickly. They were now crispy. Diana and the others stared in marvel. Keith placed them onto a plate. 

"The water is done boiling as well," Keith stated as he lowered the heat of the water. It should be a gentle boil. Too much heat would ruin the eggs. Keith gently cracked five eggs into the pot. 

"Wind magic sure comes in handy in cooking," Keith smiled. He quickly cast a small little tornado surrounding the eggs. That would stop the whites from spreading apart. 

Diana and the rest stared at the cooking in awe. Slowly, the white started to turn white. It didn't take long before he took out the poached eggs. They were like large pearls.  

"The only thing I need to do now is the hollandaise sauce." Keith cracked some eggs, separating the yolk and whites from one another. Keith placed the bowl of yolks over the pot of boiling water.  

Keith whisked the yolks on top. Keith added some lemon juice. It would help the sauce thicken up and prevent the sauce from cracking as well. 

Slowly, the sauce started to form. Keith placed some melted butter into the bowl, mixing the two together. 

At the end, Keith diced some herbs and tossed them into the sauce. Keith took a spoon and tasted the sauce,

"Delicious,"

"Keith! No fair! How come you get to try it?!" Fira pouted! But Keith smirked, 

"That's because the chef has the privilege to taste the food first,"

"Bleh! Cheater!" Fira stuck her tongue at him. 

Keith laughed, "Relax, you'll eat in a few seconds." Keith took out a knife and sliced the muffins in half. He placed it in an oven, toasting the top. What came out was a gold-brown muffin.

"Place the ham next and then the poached egg," Keith layered the food there. In the end, Keith drizzled the hollandaise sauce.

"And there! We're done!" Keith stated with a smile on his face. But when he was about to place the plate down, 

"New food!"

"Woah!" Keith screamed as he saw Cadmus teleporting right in front of his face! 

"Keith, are you okay?" Diana quickly caught the plate and looked down at Keith in worry. 

She glared at Cadmus, "Do you have to teleport like that?!" Can't he come in like a normal person?!

"My bad," Cadmus scratched his head. But the look said he wasn't sorry at all! He was focused on the dish in Diana's hand!

"You made a new dish, right?!"

"How did you know?" Keith was shocked that Cadmus knew about this. Cadmus had the proudest expression, "That's because my sixth sense told me that you would be cooking something good!" 

"Are you serious?" Keith couldn't tell whether or not this was actually his sixth sense. But whatever the case, it was scary how good his nose is.

"Let me get you one," Keith sighed as he quickly poached an egg for him. After he did that, it was time to eat. Everyone was really excited.

"You guys can eat it using a fork and knife, or you can eat it with your hand,"

When Keith said that, Cadmus didn't hesitate to grab it and take a bite.  

"So good! What is this sauce?! It's tangy and thick?!" Cadmus stared at the yellow sauce in marvel, 

"It's a sauce made from egg yolks, butter, and lemon," Keith answered as he continued to eat.  

"The egg is so runny!" Fira stated as she stared at the egg. It was oozing down from the egg! It was a beautiful gold color! 

"Mmhmm," Poached eggs are the best with that golden oozing sauce.  

"Po!" Keith looked to see Mir munching on the muffin. 

Keith smiled, "Let me add something," Keith took some condensed milk out and drizzled it onto it.

"Po! Po!" Mir shouted as he munched on it even faster! The sweetness was incredible! 

"..." Diana didn't say anything as she continued to munch on it. Keith continued to eat his food before he stated, "I'm going to head off now. Fira, Aria, Mir, I want you guys to teach Diana what to do,"

"Understood!" The three nodded their heads. It was easy with them around. Keith quickly packed up his lunch as he walked out of the island.
