Volume 6.5 Chapter 67: Bacon

It was not hard to imagine what had occurred. The scorch marks on the floor just gave them an idea. Diana was going to speak when she smacked Nephele's head.

"What was that for?!" Nephele held her head.

"Do you think I wouldn't notice you getting closer to the smoker?" While she explained, Nephele inched closer. The great spirit didn't react like the lion or dragon, but it was similar enough!

Grrrr! A resounding sound came from Nephele's stomach before a cry came.

"I'm hungry! I haven't had anything to eat!"

"..." Alfia and the others glanced at their stomachs. This was true; no one had a thing to eat.

"Stop acting like a child." Diana shook her head. When she scolded her,

Grrrrrr!

"..." Pure silence.

"I think your stomach is saying something entirely different," Nephele muttered.

"My stomach isn't saying anything!" Diana retorted! It was as if this was the start of a drum beat because,

Grrrr! The other stomachs started to rumble.

"Why does he always make such delicious things?!" Alfia grumbled as she grabbed her stomach. Sarah and Faelyn grabbed their stomachs with red cheeks. No one could blame them.

All the food Keith made had such an incredible scent. It was making their stomachs growl. But this one took the cake.

Keith took the giant piece of bacon and noticed their expression as he raised his hand, "Hold your horses; there's something else I need to do."

"What?!" "You're killing us!"

"What else do you need to do?" Gabriel gulped as he stared at that meat. He could tell if they ate it now; it was more than perfect.

"I'm going to do some testing. I'm going to sear it." Keith grinned as he headed off. But as he was leaving, the others grabbed his hand, "Where are you going with that meat?!"

"Relax, I'm only bringing it to the kitchen." Hearing his words, everyone relaxed. The last thing he had to do was cook it in the pan. Crispy bacon was the best.

Keith sliced the bacon into strips and then placed some on the pan. The sound coming from the pan was terrific! It was a pleasant sound. As he watched the bacon, "Guys, you need to calm down. I'm not going to eat it."

While he cooked, Keith was surrounded by everybody! He got Cadmus, Jack, Herrick, and Melor inside the building. And the rest were outside by the window. They were all staring at him.

"Can't trust you. Who knows if you eat it!" Cadmus was not a fool. He couldn't trust Keith! This man might sneak one before them!

"Hah," Keith sighed as he continued to cook. Once finished, he placed the bacon on a sheet of paper, letting the oil seep out. But the moment he did, Cadmus swiped, taking at least two.

"Principal!" The others stared at him! So fast! This guy had taken the food without a chance for them!

"So delicious! It's crispy and chewy." The crunch from the bacon was incredible.

"Alright, I'm done here." It was crispy enough. He didn't need to do anything else with it.

"Keith, what about the other half?" Gabriel noticed how Keith only used half of the meat.

"Oh, I'm leaving that to eat alone." Keith grinned. He picked up the plates, "Now, let's go and eat." Thinking about it, it was better to eat in the dining room.

"On it!"
