The Demon's Menu-Chapter 988: Baptism. Promotion!
Him?
Mimosa?
Looking at the text that appeared in the glow, Jason was stunned.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t understand the meaning of the sentence; it was just a surprise.
The meaning of the sentence was quite clear—it must be words recorded with joy by the writer after receiving praise from another person.
The last emoticon said it all.
At any other time, Jason wouldn’t be surprised.
Such emotions are normal, filled with happiness and excitement.
But such words appearing in this monster-surrounded ’safe house’ filled him with surprise.
Then, endless contemplation followed.
Who is He?
Who is Mimosa?
Who would use Mimosa as a name?
That seems odd; even using a string of numbers would make more sense.
No!
Neither makes sense.
Clearly a fake name.
Or should I say...
Yes, a pet name?
Jason felt an inexplicable lump in his throat.
The scent of dog food emerged out of nowhere around his nose.
Is it popular now to lure dogs inside and then kill them?
And more so, under the conditions that ordinary people cannot enter and that most on the ’Mystical Side’ cannot trigger, is it because... showing off in front of ordinary people is no longer satisfying?
Must this be done to display ’true love’?
You two are so great, why not ascend to divinity together?
The ’energy’ caught in his throat quickly became ’energy’ squeezed in his chest, and Jason felt the urge to vent.
However, Jason continued to pay attention to the changes in the book.
Quickly, more text appeared—
All the top-quality ingredients here have been collected, leaving only some scraps. I still need to gather some main ingredients; must get the main dish for the celebration feast done before His return!
Come on, Mimosa, you can do it φ(*)♪
...
Text appeared, the glow becoming denser.
Then, it dispersed together.
Like a campfire falling apart, turning into spots of light, like dancing fireflies.
These light spots didn’t disappear, they just floated in the house, quite beautiful.
Leaving Jason dumbfounded.
Besides the persisted, full mouth of dog food, Jason was more concerned about the term ’top-quality ingredients.’
Here?
Top-quality ingredients?
Scraps?
Jason’s eyes instinctively turned towards the direction of the door.
In this dark, desolate place, it seems that the ’ingredients’ are the monsters outside.
But he didn’t smell any scent of ’food’ from those monsters.
After a slight pause, Jason lightly tapped his forehead.
He had fallen into a misconception again.
It’s not only ingredients with a ’food’ scent that are considered ingredients.
It should be that anything edible can be classified as an ingredient.
Moreover, his inability to detect the ’scent of food’ is probably due to his insufficient abilities.
Or perhaps he hasn’t found the key to obtaining ’ingredients.’
Keep in mind, under the field of [Protection Against Evil], those monsters turned into dense black smoke upon death.
This self-proclaimed ’Mimosa’ must possess superb cooking skills.
Jason looked around at the pots and pans, quickly coming to a realization.
The stone house in front of him was clearly an abandoned kitchen.
At that time, ’Mimosa’ collected top-quality ingredients here for his beloved, processed them simply, and then left, leaving only some scraps...
Jason’s eyes narrowed slightly.
The monsters that had given him a hard fight were just scraps others didn’t bother with?
Then the strength of the other party...
Jason’s thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
He realized another point he’d overlooked.
This is the ’Seal Imprint Test’ left by [Protection Against Evil], what’s the relationship between the other party and [Protection Against Evil]?
It can’t be that the other party created [Protection Against Evil]?
Jason’s brows involuntarily furrowed.
Shouldn’t it be a hero who fought hard here to dispel darkness and protect the world and finally created [Protection Against Evil]?
Right!
It must be that way!
It couldn’t be that a caring little chef temporarily processed ingredients here for his beloved, thus creating [Protection Against Evil].
Jason thought to himself, and the text in front of him appeared again—
[Judgment passed!]
[Protection Against Evil ascended to Transcendent!]
[Protection Against Evil (Transcendent)]: You have become extraordinary among many masters who use this secret technique of Seal Imprint, enhancing it with a special strength upon the original foundation, and combining a similar power to strengthen it! This allows you to move unimpeded through the city, suburbs, and wilderness at night, ignoring the lurking malice in darkness, but you still need to consume a significant amount of Physical Strength to activate this secret technique of Seal Imprint! Remember: although your unimpeded access includes but is not limited to the city, its suburbs, outlying areas, and even wilderness, you still cannot approach places farther away! You cannot step into the abyss—that is the warning from the Night Watcher predecessors! As one of the Night Watchers, you should heed this warning! Just as in the heritage of the Night Watcher you possess! Once, a certain Night Watcher made minor adjustments to this Seal Imprint. Hence, you’ve mastered such long-range attack skills; similarly, the changes you make to the Seal Imprint can also be added to this heritage! Effects: 1, A special force field attached to the surface of the body, which not only defends against attacks of negative energy creatures (strong level), but can also Dispel them and their powers (strong level); 2, You can target the force of dispelling evil within a radius of 30 meters with you at the center against creatures or objects for a long-range attack.]
