Ellyn carefully cut the ingredients one by one, her small hands steady but her expression filled with determination.
Ridan floated closer, tilting his cloudy head. "Oho? Cooking for him?"
"Yes~" Ellyn answered brightly without looking up, her tail swaying with pride.
Syaria leaned forward from Ridan's side, curious. "You can cook?"
Ellyn nodded quickly. "Of course! It's just cooking, right? Cut the ingredients, toss it into the pan, and put some salt."
Ridan froze, then slowly turned to Syaria.
He burst out laughing so hard his form wobbled.
"Pfft—ingredients, toss! BWHAHAHAHA!!"
Ellyn puffed her cheeks and glared up at him.
"Mou~! Don't laugh! That's how it works, right!?"
Ridan clutched at his cloudy stomach, spinning in circles.
"Oh God...Hazuki's doomed! Hahaha! He's gonna eat chopped meat and salt soup!"
Syaria tried to hold her composure, but a small laugh escaped behind her hand.
