The ingenuity and craftsmanship that went into its creation was simply a marvel.
Its movents were smooth, and its appearance looked lifelike.
At that mont, Lucian could not help but say, [Dying was the best thing that happened to .]
Once again, Lucian was most likely the only one in existence to be thankful for dying.
[The System is unsure how I should react to the Host's suicidal humor.] The System said via Voice Transmission before it opened its fox mouth and spoke, "Greetings, Host."
The System's voice was chanical and devoid of emotion despite its words.
Hearing the sudden voice, i was startled and quickly turned in the direction of the voice.
Her eyes widened, and a flush of excitent spread across her neutral face as she took in the sight of the Nine-Tailed Fox.
'So… cute!… Wait! A Nine-Tailed Fox!?" At that instant, i's expression changed to shock as she realized because of the Magical Beast's cuteness, she had overlooked sothing. "What is a legendary Magical Beast doing on the Aetheria Continent!?"
Nine-Tailed Foxes were on the sa level as Dragons, both Magical Beasts possessed the potential to beco Mana God Realm Mages.
But, of course, that was only the truth on Arcadia. In reality, Nine-Tailed Foxes, similar to Dragons had the potential to dominate Universes.
Just that alone showed how extraordinary the Celestium Shard was.
It was unknown how Luna got her hands on the Nine-Tailed Fox Bloodline.
"The 'Nine-Tailed Fox' is a robot, not a Magical Beast," Lucian explained to i before ignoring her face, which had another look of realization.
[Host, in this form, I am able to provide more direct assistance and guidance in culinary matters and combat scenarios.] The System said, once it saw it had its Host's attention.
Lucian's lips curled, [How can a Non-Mage possibly help in combat?]
The System replied in a serious tone. [That is only temporary. With the Host's assistance, I can beco the strongest]
[... Haah, whatever!]
After Lucian spoke, he summoned Lily's pink bed, which he had previously bought for her, and sat on it with his legs crossed. But just as he was about to close his eyes, i's slightly astonished voice interrupted him.
"Chef Lucian, may I ask, what are you doing?"
Lucian looked at her briefly before explaining, "There is still an hour and thirty-three minutes left until the intermission. I only cook and serve perfection. Since that's the case, I'll only start cooking twenty minutes prior to the break."
"I understand." i slowly nodded her head and sat down on the cold tiles on her knees.

As the Duan Restaurant's kitchen was enveloped in silence, the sa could not be said three-thousand feet away, where a beautiful three-story building lay, taking up an entire street's worth of space.
"Did you guys hear about the ridiculously expensive dish cooked by Sir Jas' personal chef? " One of the countless people in the ridiculously long line asked excitedly.
Hearing his words, a young girl in front of him responded without turning her head around, "Who hasn't? He's the sa shaless vendor who sold popcorn to the guests waiting to attend Young Master Wang Chen's funeral."
The man nodded as he recalled the scene, "Not only that, he charged 75 Gold Coins for rely ten pieces of popcorn. The audacity… but *gulp* it was delicious."
Another person further up in the line scoffed, "You all think 75 Gold Coins is a lot? That rat bastard is charging 5 Low-Grade Mana Stones for a single poached Egg!"
"Tch. He's just a paper tiger using his Master's prestige." Soone grumbled. "Forget about him and focus on the food we'll get to eat at the Dragon's Feast Restaurant!"
Nodding their heads, they returned to waiting for their turn to enter the restaurant.
However, one person could not wait. It was precisely the young girl from before. She stepped out of the line and dashed toward the double doors, where two guards in black suits stood in front of it to prevent such people from forcefully entering.
However, upon seeing her face, instead of stopping her, they stepped aside.
Without so much as a glance at them, the young girl pushed the heavy doors open, stepped into the restaurant, and swiftly went up the stairs to the third floor.
Once there, she approached the end of the hall, where there was only a single door.
After composing herself, she reached out her hand and knocked her tiny fists against the door three tis.
*Knock*
*Knock*
*Knock*
Then, without waiting for an answer, she pushed the door open and stepped inside. She did not need permission from the person in the room to enter.
After stepping inside the room, blinding golden rays shot toward the young girl, forcing her to squint her eyes.
She frowned as her eyes struggled to adjust to the golden radiance.
"Why are you in such a hurry, little Su?" A middle-aged man's voice sounded from in front of her.
"Ugh… I hate entering your office, uncle." The young girl, nad Su Bei, grumbled.
"Hahaha, that's a funny joke." The voice responded laughingly. "Who doesn't like gold, luxury, and envious eyes cast their way? The feeling of superiority can never be beat"
"Tch. Uncle, if only you had a taste for fashion and decor."
A mont later, as Su Bei's vision cleared, she could finally make out the figure who had spoken.
Behind a large, wooden desk, encrusted with custom-made golden jewels, was a middle-aged man with a rotund physique and slicked-back black hair. He was wearing a luxurious, bright golden robe with a similarly colored Spatial Ring on each finger. Around his neck hung a thick golden necklace.
Accompanied by the golden chandelier above his figure and the golden decorations surrounding him, it was safe to say the person sitting on the chair was gaudy. Read latest stories on empire
After Su Bei shook her head, she continued, "Uncle, did you hear about the Garlic Butter and Herb Popcorn and Siren's lody Poached Egg?"
