Chapter 1104 Eating Phoenix Meat For The First Time

The beautiful Oasis was enormous and lustrous, shining brightly beneath the moonlight. Our parents decided to cook up a feast. And I decided to help out using my Cooking Skill and Cooking Magic combined for greater effects. We had lots of Firebirds and a giant Phoenix to butcher and cook, so we put all our efforts into that.

Taking away their feathers was the hardest part, they were very rooted into their hard skin, making it very complicated. At the end we gave up and skinned them completely while ignoring the feathers. We\'ll have to separate them from the skin later. The firebirds were alright to butcher, but the giant Phoenix was a whole different deal.

Its meat was so hard any knife, even the strong mithril ones usually broke apart when we tried to pierce the flesh. This is the meat of a Tier 10 Monster after all. My mother ended calling dad and he used his sword to swiftly butcher it entirely though, making all the difficulties we went through feel completely pointless as he did it all in a flash.

My father is truly a master swordsman… I don\'t think I am near at his level yet. And I may never be for several decades. Aside from his swordsmanship being inborn talent, he has been training it since an incredibly early age and has learned swordsmanship from many other masters he met through his life.

He\'s just too awesome, but somehow, I want to one day surpass him…

"All done!" He smiled, patting my head. "This meat is a bit hard to cook though. Phoenix are generally immune to fire so you can\'t cook them. But you can directly eat their meat. The thing is, it is too hard for the teeth and mandibles of anybody below Tier 10 so… I don\'t know what to do in this regard."

"I\'ll do it." My mother said. "I\'ve cooked dragon meat before, remember? This shouldn\'t be too hard either. And fire its not the only heat that can cook things." My mother smiled, as several spheres of radiant, burning light surged from her hands. "These [Miniature Stars] should do the trick."

Yeah, my mother\'s also a ridiculous magician! I\'ve learned so many spells from her, yet I still feel completely powerless in front of such overwhelming potential. My only way to catch up with them ever is with my System and all the abilities that come with it…

FRSSSH!

The sound of meat being slowly grilled by my mother\'s magic made my thoughts fade away. I don\'t know why I was even considering that anyways though. Maybe I am a bit obsessed with growing stronger due to how weak I felt in my previous life.

But even then, I\'m totally okay with my parents being stronger than me forever. I\'ll grow on my own way and forge my own path. I don\'t need to surpass them on their own fields to begin with.

"That smells nice. Mom should I do something?"

"Leave the Phoenix to me. Can you cook the firebirds with your friends, dear?"

"Sure! Leave it to me!"

I quickly gathered with my friends, and we decided to cook the Firebird meat in a variety of ways. I even asked those that didn\'t cook that much to help too, so they could practice their Cooking Magic, and to see if any could learn a Cooking Skill along the way.

The meat of the Firebirds was very red, almost like beef. However, it carried a certain tenderness once it started being cooked. Unlike the Phoenix, although it was slightly resistant to fire, it still cooked, just slowly.

I used my Holy Flames to cook it faster, which seemed to work surprisingly well!

And with the power of my Cooking Skill, the food was swiftly enchanted with more flavor and essence which we could gain out of eating it.

We decided to prepare a few recipes with this super tasty chicken. First we decided to just cover several of their gigantic legs on a lot of spices, salt, and vinegar, and then roast them at low heat.

Then, we cut down the breast meat and covered them on batter and crunchy breadcrumbs, deep frying it inside of oil made from the grease of the Sunstone Plateau Goats.

And lastly, we cut down and minced the rest of the meat and made them into burgers which we deep fried too, after covering on batter and breadcrumbs. These had onions and other veggies added too, for extra flavor.

The minutes went by slowly as we waited for the meals to get done. The smell of chicken permeated the air. We really just wanted to get to eating already!

After half an hour, the first things that were done were the burgers and the chicken breasts, so we decided to quickly sit down and enjoy, with a side of roasted potatoes and colorful salad.

The Pyramid Slimes were shy at first, but with the rest of the slimes assuring them that it was alright to join, they lost their shyness and quickly joined us in our meal.

"Wow these are amazing!" My dad said. "I can\'t believe you can come out with such simple yet delicious recipes, my princess. I love the burgers! So soft and crunchy! And the veggies inside really are nice."

"I agree, you also added a lot of spices, yet it doesn\'t feel overly flavorful either. Everything melds together quite nicely." My mother nodded.

"And they have different flavors? Like some have different grades of spiciness. Some have white onions; others have more garlic…" Nepheline said.

Everyone was fascinated with the meals. But I was looking forward the most to the phoenix, to be honest. Thinking about it, wouldn\'t the meat of a tier 10 legendary monster power up my physique a lot?!
