[Eva's POV: ]
Cats like milk and fatty things since they are cute bubbly gubbly furballs so for the examiners of our exam today, I was going to make a special cookie recipe that I learned from Lucy a while back as well as a Mana processed milk.
'Raz loves it so these special examiners should also like it as well, right?'
There were many cooking areas with ingredients, tools for other household work, so artistic materials, and even so pretty-looking miscellaneous things that I didn't understand much about.
But there were surely many things here in this garden and since there were only a few hundred of us here, there was more than enough stuff for everyone to work on their own.
Not that many were using the cooking area. Academy already had so of the best chefs among their teaching staff so they shouldn't need the helpers who could cook a little bit.
It wasn't like they would be better than them… I knew that. I wasn't any better than them. Lucy definitely was but I was still not on that level. But, I loved cooking so, if I was going to make sothing for the examiners, wasn't it better to just make it for everyone else too?
'That way, I can show off my skills too~.'
It was a good-sounding idea, yes. So~ I went to a certain big open area that no one was using with the biggest pot I could get my hands on, put all the large amounts of ingredients in the pot, jumped up, and used the [Gale rush] skill of Luel and the winds that were generated inside the pot, were mostly enough to mix everything together.
And then I added so water and liquid things, controlled the winds precisely, and at the end, I had a pretty good batter ready.
"Woah…"
"Fuck what was that…?"
"Who's she? Is that magic or so kind of skill… and that sword? Is she a magic swordsman or sothing?"
"Do your work nyarall! Paying attention to soone else will result in minus points!"
Everyone seed to be surprised at what I just did, not that it was anything special.
'It's a spectacle whenever Lu makes sothing, and it's even more amazing to see when they both make sothing together so, this much was practically nothing.'
The one who stopped all of them was the black cat instructor, and he seed to have been closely observing and Luel for a while now.
'I just hope I get a passing grade. Please, please, at least don't fail .'
I had to do my best if I wanted to pass among all these professional people so this was an important thing.
"Ok."
I had everything prepared now so I activated my [Cooking knowledge] and [Battle analysis] skills to aid with this little task.
'Huuuu…'
To make these special cookies, Mana was an important elent, and as they taught , the (Mana infusion) was a very difficult task.
I had to concentrate perfectly and use Mana in the surroundings to infuse it inside this dough and milk.
'It used to be difficult but, since I have Luel now, it has beco pretty easy.'
I can channel Mana through Luel and since it can take any form I want, it beca even easier with it modded in a thin form.
"Alright~."
The dough was ready, the milk was ready, so, just the heating was left. And there was an oven among the things they summoned too so this last process beca easier.
...
-Ting~~!
"Good~."
The cookies were ready soon so I opened the door of the oven… and a harmonious fog containing the fresh sll of cookies covered the entire surrounding as everyone started looking at , including the lizardman instructor and the three cat instructors.
It must be new for them to feel this fresh sll of cookies but for , this had beco normal. I had Lu as my teacher so, these small things were nothing great.
"And the milk?"
I was preparing the milk in a closed-off container using my Mana to pressurize it inside while boiling it slowly. I believed it should be ready by now so I opened the container too and a new whiter fog covered the surrounding area.
"Good, good. Alright. I hope they like it."
I wasn't the only one who was cooking sothing. There were many people but even they were looking at for so reason with looks of surprise.
'Did I do sothing wrong? Why are they surprised by this small thing? Or is the aroma of the cookies and milk not to their liking?'
Well, I didn't know what was going on with them but I believed in my cookies. They were good and they tasted good too. They will understand when they eat it.
'But first the gulli-bulli kittens… I shouldn't call them that but I couldn't help myself. They were all cute like Raz.'
"Hmmya? You made cookies… and is that milk? Why does it sll so thick?"
"What were you seeinyg, you blind brownya? She was cool when making it."
"Hmmm? What? I wasn't lookinyg since this scent was so srisinyg that I was lost… Wait! It's cominyg from close! Where-"
"Open your eyes, dummy."
The brown cat was wearing so kind of eye patch and his other eye was closed for quite a while now, as if he had been lost in thoughts.
But when he said that a certain scent was coming from close, the white cat beside him slamd his back and he almost fell.
"Awwww! That nyhurt!"
"Then you should keep your eyes open instead of sleeping in the middle of work like this."
"I wasn't sleeping! I was using my other senses to assesnyes them all at a deeper level!"
"Looks very much like sleepinyg to mya."
"Shut up you two. Let's see what this younyg Lady has created for us today."
The black cat instructor spoke up and cald them down.
"Yes. Here. Ah, and I made more so I was thinking if everyone can have so when the test is over."
"It would be alnyaight. We will be taking a break anyway."
"Thanks~."
It was fine, they were fine with it too, so I just left the cookies and milk there and turned around to walk away… when all three of the cat instructors called for .
"Oy, oy. Where are you going? Don't you wanna know if we liked this or not?"
"Yes! How can you just walk away?"
"Is there sothing left you need to take care of?"
All three of them questioned with surprised looks which… confused , actually.
"H-hmm? Nothing sir. I was going back to do the 'thing I'm best at'?"
"What?"
Now, all three of them had a confused look. Like, the really gubachuba cute looks.
'Lord… now I want kittens for myself.'
"What do you an Lady? Cooking isn't your best skill? Like… this level of cooking isn't the best you can do?"
"What? No. I love cooking but I'm a swordsman… wasn't it obvious?"
The voice this black cat instructor had was pretty strong, but that look of surprise was quite new even for .
"M-mhmm. Ahem. Yes, the sword. It's a unique artifact. And the skill you use also seems to be from the sword… but swordsman? Really?"
"…is there a problem with that?"
Yes, I was quite unskilled and inexperienced for my age and my level was low compared to other weapon wielders here but, I was still a swordsman.
'Why is everyone surprised again?'
I looked around and many people were looking at instead of doing their own work. What did I do wrong?!
"Ahem, ahem! Nothing miss. You can go ahead with your demonstration. We all are watching."
"Ok…?"
I bowed down to them and started walking back to the open area where the physical skill demonstrators were doing their things, who were also apparently staring at for so reason.
"Ummm, hello? I made cookies. I hope you all will help yourself?"
The cookies were already on the table over there and so were in the oven so, even though everything felt weird right now, I tried not to think about it, prepared my Luel, and got ready for a field sword art demonstration.
'Which… for so reason, caused them to be even more surprised.'
