Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer-Chapter 14 Surprising Taste

In the twilight of the setting sun, which has painted the horizon in bright orange, the rising stars who have covered half the sky with their glamorous sparkling light, someone was sitting on a chair in the large backyard of a two-story house, alone.

A stunningly beautiful lady with long blond hair, which complemented the light of the setting sun perfectly, and light brown eyes which reflected the starlight, was sitting there with a confused look on her face.

'Where did they disappear, all of a sudden.'

Eon and Brian just vanished after saying her to wait. Quite the time has already passed but there was nothing going on.

"Let's just go and check on them."

She was going to stand up but then, stopped herself.

There was a candle in a glass on the table in front of her.

Not only that one but there were many candles decorated in the whole area. She didn't think much about it at the start but now, suddenly the one in front of her lit up... she understood that there was something special about them.

One by one the candles started to light up. It was the first time she had seen something like this.

Arranged in many different shapes and designs the candles which were lighting up slowly, seem to be making a harmonious song.

Then, to make it true, a piece of slow music started playing in the background.

She set down and watched everything with wide, sparkling eyes.

"It's cute..."

She praised with a low voice as if to tell herself.

"Isn't it."

Hearing that, she turned around. There she saw her family, looking at her with loving, triumphant eyes.

"Mom! Happy Birthday!"

I loudly congratulated her and ran towards her. Behind me, dad also followed me.

He sat down opposite her on the round table, while I was still standing there waiting for something.

"Hm? Eon? What are you doing over there."

Mom asked with a confused look on her face.

"He says that he will serve us dinner tonight. I don't know why but, he urged me to let him do it by himself."

Dad explained instead of me.

"Hm? How can he even do that? Eon..."

She was going to say something but I reassured her.

"Mom. It's ok. Just for today, let me do it."

"If you say so. But be careful."

Shaking her head, she calmed herself down.

"It's ok, right? There won't be any problems if you were with him. But-"

"Don't worry. He knows what he is doing."

She asked worriedly looking at dad just to get cut out by him again.

I turned around and entered the house to prepare everything.

Mom and dad who were left alone in the backyard were chatting peacefully. This was a candlelight dinner. I could hear laughter coming from outside sometimes which was definitely mom, most of the time.

After completing the preparation, I walked out with the dishes.

Serving everything on the round table in front of us, I too set down with them.

The round table was filled with delicious-looking food. A thick soup which was yellow-white in color and filled with some vegetables.

A round sandwich-like thing and chopped potatoes which looked fried. Souses of different colors, salads, and a fine wine bottle from dad.

"So, um... Eon? What are these things?"

Mom asked with a confused and surprised expression. she looked skeptical as she watched the food and smelled the appetizing fragrance.

Everything was unique. It looked very eye-pleasing and mouth watering. She didn't expect to be this much surprised with just some unique food items.

Looking at her, I started introducing everything one by one.

" The soup here is a normal cream corn soup prepared as a starter.

Then moving on to the main course the sandwich-like thing is actually quite similar to a sandwich but a bit different as it has a stake like meat as its core.

If you want, you can try it with this red sauce and this fried potato sticks. You can also try it with wine if you want."

Explaining the procedure and how I prepared the whole thing... I was tired and just started eating.

"Mom, dad, please taste and tell me if it is good enough."

Mom nodded and took the soup first. Taking a small spoon she slowly tasted it. As soon as she took the first spoon, her eyes widened.

Surprised, she took another big spoon and tasted it again.

"It's good..."

She praised with a surprised look on her face. It wasn't just the taste but also the texture and the feeling while eating this stew were unexpectedly sweet and smooth.

I just smiled at her and finished the soup. The main dish was the star of today and a base setter for the big show.

Moving on to the burger, she cut it in half and then in another half, making it a fourth of the original.

She poured some souse with a spoon as I told her and took a bite.

The spicy, sweet, and crunchy taste was mouthwatering and the umami was perfect as she couldn't help but exclaim.

"Wow...!"

Not minding them I just ate the whole thing with my two small hands. This was the right way.

The crunchy exterior of fries and sweet-sour souse and the soft interior was... nostalgic to me.

'Well done me.'

I praised myself for making something this good.

Dad, copying me, was eating with both hands and looked as delighted as me.

"Eon. I will need seconds for this one."

He requested with a happy tone wiping the souse on his mouth.

"Don't worry! There is more than enough for us."

I exclaimed while taking a sip of the orange juice dad made for me.

Mom was lost in her own thoughts as she didn't talk much and just ate her delicious food.

'He made all these unique things, just for me. How did he even think the ideas for them...he is special, and... he is my son.'

Thoughts that no one but a mother like her could understand passed rapidly through her mind. Not minding dad cleaning up the table after finishing the eating, she just smiled at us.

"Ok then! If we are finished, let's eat the desert."

Interrupting her thoughts was my loud voice.

I had shouted loudly to grab her attention. She was so lost in thoughts the whole time, that she didn't even notice that I had already brought a large bowl filled with round, creamy objects of different colors.

"Hmm...? What is this?"

She asked as it looked like she was back to reality.

"Mom! It's a dessert which I named 'ice cream!' "

Excitedly shouting, I put the bowl on the table.

Mom had no idea what this was but, the story was different for dad.

He looked at the bowl with sparkling eyes and exclaimed with an excited voice.

"Honey! Try this once and it will become your favorite dessert of all times!"

He exclaimed everything with extreme certainty in his eyes.

Surprised to see this reaction, she couldn't hold herself back.

"Mom! Try this pink and orange one. You will like them!."

"Really? You two are a bit too excited this time. And honey? How do you know it is delicious? Did you try it before me? How can you~."

She grumbled in her usual cheerful voice. She was back to her cheerful self so dad was happy to see her tease him.

'Now it looks like she is perfectly fine.'

I thought and served her strawberry and orange flavor. Dad took mango, and I took my all-time favorite chocolate.

Mom took a spoonful of it and put it in her mouth.

As soon as she took the first bite her expression changed totally. As if to not believe herself she took another bite. Confusion clouded her face.

' How could something be so soft and creamy at the same time? It has perfect smoothness and the texture is well refined.

How did they make this! Wait? They made so much in such a short amount of time... which means it can be mass-produced. If that's the case... no wait. Calm down. Let's think about it later.'

After calming herself down, she looked at me.

"Eon? What flavor is trying? Let me have some too."

"Yes, mom! Here. It's chocolate! Do you like this? Dad helped me with this one mostly."

Sharing it with, her we slowly finished it in a short time.

After talking for some time, I looked at her and asked.

"So...um. Mom? Did you like it? Can... I learn magic now?"

Dad also looked at her with serious eyes. The final say was her and none of us can ignore that.

"Hmm... ok. Let's think."

She thought seriously and made her decision after some time, shaking her head.

There was tension in the air and the pressure of the words she would say was not only important for me but, dad too.

I looked at dad and he looked at me. We both gulped a mouthful of saliva as we stared at her mouth.

But breaking the tension... we saw mom smiling at us.

"Relax~, both of you. Eon did something marvelous. It couldn't be as good as this even if done by a professional."

She looked very satisfied with today.

Dad and I released a long breath that we were holding from the start of the question.

"Thank you very much, mom!"

I jumped up and hugged her. Holding me in her arms, she lifted me up and put me on top of the table.

"Not only that, but you also get a wish from me. Ask anything you want."

She said, kissing my forehead. She was very happy today. I could feel that just from her tone.

"Then... I will think about it and tell you later. Thank you for this mom! Really!"

I happily exclaimed as I gave her a kiss on the cheeks with a happy smile.

"Oh my~. Aren't you smart? Ok then."

She hugged me as she said that.

Standing behind the chair dad hugged both of us from behind as he too looked very happy with that. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

'Now I will really learn magic.'

I thought as I closed my eyes in their embrace.
