Becoming a god by raising witches

"Goddess, who taught you that? You're still so young."

Rebecca rolled her eyes.

Foolish human, I could easily be your great-grandmother.

Locke's hearing was exceptionally sharp. He peered down at Rebecca on the sofa downstairs and reminded her, "Tomorrow I want to eat chocolate pudding. Rebecca, get some rest. I want to have authentic chocolate pudding first thing tomorrow morning."

"Damn it!!! That damned Locke Bemon! I hate chocolate pudding!"

Rebecca yelled, jumped up from the sofa, and rushed into the servants' quarters.

“Locke, don’t be so harsh on Rebecca. How could she possibly make chocolate custard pudding? It sounds too difficult.”

Hannah said.

Rebecca opened the servants' quarters and roared at Hannah, "Shut up! I can make it! I could make such a simple dessert with my eyes closed!"

"Okay, I look forward to tomorrow morning."

Locke said with a smile.

Rebecca slammed the door shut.

That damn competitive spirit!

Locke rushed into his room on the third floor.

Eileen was indeed lying on the soft, large bed.

Fearing that Locke would take over the control of the bed, she is now enormous, a size that could be described as that of a giant cat.

"What is so urgent?"

Eileen stretched and said softly.

“Krista, and a red-haired woman. I’m not sure if they’re witches, but their target is you, or more precisely, the Book of Witches. They’re after the Book of Witches, and now they’ve got their eyes on me. I don’t know when they’ll make their move.”

Locke said nervously.

Eileen sat up in bed, returned to her normal size, and jumped onto Locke's shoulder.

"Are you being targeted?"

"Yes, you don't need to think about killing me to cover it up. My chief, Rene, already knows."

Locke pushed away Eileen's furry claws that were showing their nails.

Eileen retracted her paw and licked it.

"Oh, it's such a shame that such a useful pet owner has died."

Locke broke out in a cold sweat. "You were just about to grab my neck, weren't you?"

It seems Rhaenys was right all along; there are no truly kind witches in this world! It's all a facade!

"It's alright, they won't find the Witch's Book, but if they bring it to me, it'll be perfect for me to recover."

Eileen was still resentful about being ambushed before.

"You don't want to eat them, do you?"

Locke asked, puzzled.

"Only special witches can be absorbed by me. I'm not sure if they can. I must meet them. I will stay by your side every step of the way recently."

Erin said.

"Ok."

Locke breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like he had gained two protective charms: if Eileen couldn't do it, there was still Renis.

"Rebecca has tidied up the attic; you'll sleep there."

Eileen said with a smile.

"it is good."

Locke went up to the attic, which was more friendly to petite women and children, but more demanding for tall men, as Locke had to bend over.

He lay on his bed in the attic, pulled the covers over himself, and looked at the children's toys and decorations hanging from the ceiling, sighing.

"Rebecca really decorates this place like a nursery."

Locke, who hadn't enjoyed a soft bed in a long time, quickly drifted off to sleep.

The next day, the bells of the Cathedral of Life rang at 6 a.m., waking up the hardworking people of Kosork.

Hannah and Locke opened their eyes almost simultaneously, got dressed, and went to the living room on the first floor.

The newsboy has already delivered the latest Tumen Times to the mailbox at the door.

Rebecca reluctantly got up to make chocolate custard pudding.

Locke retrieved the newspaper from the mailbox by the door and handed it to Hannah.

Because the siblings both get up so early, they have plenty of time to read the newspaper, eat breakfast, and then walk to work.

"Good morning, Locke."

"Good morning, Xiao Ai."

Good morning, Rebecca.

Hannah put on the new dress Locke had bought for her, her brown hair was styled in a ponytail, and she looked radiant and beautiful.

"Never smile at Bonnie's father; I'm afraid that middle-aged gentleman might not be able to resist the temptation."

Locke said with a smile.

"Please don't say that."

Hannah rolled her eyes at Locke, snatched the newspaper from his hand, and started reading.

"The new Alchemy Act has been enacted, which seems like a good thing. We must thank Locke and me for investigating the Laslo Alchemy Plant. Her Majesty is truly amazing. The Act stipulates that all alchemy plants must introduce the latest wastewater removal equipment, and the old equipment must be phased out."

Hannah said excitedly.

Locke sighed, "Hannah, we can't just look at the good side of things. With the new alchemy law being enacted, a number of non-compliant small alchemy plants are bound to go bankrupt. There will be a massive unemployment wave in Kosork. Coupled with the current rise in food prices, many people are destined to die this winter."

Why did Baker Grain suddenly raise grain prices?

Hannah was clearly disappointed after Locke said that.

"There are many reasons, and you're smart enough to figure them out."

Locke went into the kitchen and put on an apron.

Rebecca looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Didn't you ask me to make chocolate custard pudding? What are you doing in here?"

"Of course, it's to make you a delicious breakfast. Pudding can only be a dessert; you still need a main course."

Locke said with a smile.

"What staple food?"

"Egg with baguette".

"What a strange name."

"You can also call it Egg-Steamed Long Bread. Okay, stop complaining and focus on making your chocolate pudding."

Locke finished his conversation with Rebecca, washed his hands, and prepared 2 tomatoes, 2 onions, 2 eggs, 4 mushrooms, and 3 slices of ham.

Although old Rani had explicitly stated that kitchen ingredients were not allowed to be brought home and could only be used for experiments in the kitchen, after Locke told old Rani about his tragic orphanhood, old Rani would voluntarily bring Locke some ingredients every day after get off work so that he could take them home and experiment with them.

Of course, the most important reason was that Locke promised old Rani that he would never bring his pet cat, Erin, into the kitchen.

Therefore, Locke could obtain this precious ingredient, ham, without spending any money.

As for tomatoes, onions, and eggs, they don't cost much.

Wash all the ingredients thoroughly. Dice the onion, mushrooms, and ham. Crack the eggs into a bowl and set aside.

Add a little olive oil to a frying pan, heat the oil, sauté the diced onions until fragrant, add the diced ham and stir-fry evenly, then add the mushrooms and cook until done. The aroma wafts into Rebecca's nose through the air.

She glanced at Locke, feeling pressured, and sped up the process of making the chocolate custard pudding.

Locke adds tomatoes and cooks them until they release their juices, then seasons with salt and black pepper.

Finally, pour all of this into a cast iron pot, make two holes, crack an egg into each hole, and put it in the oven.

After baking for 10 minutes, take it out of the oven, cut some fragrant dipping sauce, and it's ready.

Locke then took out two Kosorck loaves of bread similar to baguettes, sliced ​​them, and placed them on top, making it look and smell delicious.

"Rebecca, I'm done. What about you?"

Chapter 103, A Vulgar Confession

Sunlight streamed through the stained-glass windows, illuminating the brightly colored egg rolls on the table, making their colors even more saturated and enticing. Paired with chocolate pudding, this breakfast was a luxury, even in Kosork's eastern district.

As Rebecca ate the breakfast Locke had made, she had to admit that he was indeed quite skilled.

"Rock Bemon, how do you manage to have so many strange dishes in your head?"
