Kendra didn"t comment anything and just filled again to the brim. When he finished one more he stopped himself. He knew his body the best and knew if he overeats it will be hard to carry anything in the morning. So he just stopped and licked his lips. ""Cultivation is an amazing thing. But eating delicious food is even better. To bad cultivators don"t eat.""Jason, Sirius and the few others from her guild suddenly started laughing loudly as they heard him talking. Even a couple of people from Warrior guild joined in. He stared at them with pressed lips and sighed deeply. ""What did I say wrong?""
Kendra blinked at him with a huge smile. ""It"s not that they can"t eat. They just choose not to. There is absolutely no rule that says that cultivators cant eat good food. Or is it?"".
Claro stared at her in astonishment. Her words seem to be really true. Cultivators ate but most if the choose not to as it was bothersome while cultivating.
"And there are so many good foods. As cultivators, we indeed do not need food. But enjoying it from time to time is not a bad idea. By the way, ever ate spirit food?" She was curious. If they haven"t, that means she can make some and exchange for rare materials.
And her a.s.sumption was true. "We have spirit herbs, but what is spirit food?"
Even her clan"s people were interested.
""That is food prepared with spirit animals, spirit fruits and vegetables and spirit herbs on top of it. When you eat spirit food there is literally spirit boost just like you cultivate for a long time. There are many strengths in spirit food. And the best is. The taste of spirit food is a hundred times stronger than normal food. Mortals cant eat spirit food as it could literally kill them."" Kendra yawned while she explained.
Everyone gasped including those form Illo"s group. Thye could see her sleepily slowly closing her eyes and yawning but wanted to ask more. But she just waved her hand. ""Spirit food is rare. Do you think I eat those things every day? Fools. Going to sleep now."" She stretched a bit and went inside tent, then she closed the doors.
Jason and Sirius suddenly stood up and pressed their fingers on their lips. ""She is still a child. If you people can stay the whole night up that doesn"t mean a little girl can. Go now. Her words are true. Spirit herbs are rare, what do you think how rare would be spirit food? Go, sleep.""
Seeing that there were no more things that they could do everyone scrambled to sleep, but most of them stayed awake. In deep thought, they looked at the tent, but after a while, everyone slowly went into a deep sleep not knowing what was going on.
Kendra came out and sighed. ""Finally. I gave them enough to think about when they go back to their sect. I think from my side I did more than anyone else. What do you think?""
The taskmaster patted her head and smiled. ""You did well. But, I have to ask you this, as I am curious as well. Spirit food. I never heard of it.""
This was the first time that Kendra knew that not every one of her ideas others tried before. ""You know of spirit herbs, you never ate spirit fruit?""
He shook his head and stared at her with a big smile. ""Every word transforms itself after a while. Like an endless loop. Some worlds destroy themselves alone, some worlds grow stronger and even start blocking our world entering. So some things are possible, we just don"t know about it.""
""What? Do some worlds lock themselves against cultivators? How do they do that?"" Her big curious eyes made him warm inside so he started explaining.
He sat down next to the fire and sighed. ""Some worlds evolved more than we expected. The so called door to other worlds is nothing than portal as they call it. If you destroy the portal the only way to transfer to THE other world is to break through the upper level of existence, skipping the middle level. But not many of them are willing. Most oF them choose to become protectors of their world and just stay alive forever.""
Kendra noded. ""I completely understand their wish. The world that I came from, I was considering staying there forever. But then something caught my eye. There were changes going on for thousands of years there. Someone was grinding continents to extract spirit veins and on their way even sent some strange creatures to extract the spirits from cultivation children. When I got all the dots together I realized to save my world I had to become stronger. So I fought with them. At that time I met Marcus and Palcca for the first time. Marcus... he... sigh.""
She just waved her hand and became silent while he looked at her with scrunched eyebrows. ""Wo is Marcus? Can you tell me more about your life before we met? I would like to know."" But then saw her shaking her head. It seems there is more to that story as he thought.
""I can tell you only this. Marcus is someone I consider stronger than you. I fear that h lost his memories somehow and is living a life of cultivator in one sect. Unfortunately for him, he became or sis-con or he loves that woman. I think he is not sure as well. No matter what he made me realize that no matter is it commoner or cultivator or higher being, all men are the same."" Her lips pressed coldly as she stared at the fire in front of her.
His face became dark as she said that. ""All men are the same?""
She nodded. ""They are fools when they are in love. I think that is fine. My father is the same. Sorry. My both fathers are the same. I hope one day when I am ready I will find man who can be like them. Completely dedicated to one person. Yes. That is my wish.""
He sighed in relief as he heard her words. It was not a bad thing, but why did she have a cold smile. Is it because of Marcus? Who is he...?
