Food and Skills.

"Hmm, it smells great." Lin Kai mutter.

He removed the glass lid to reveal the meat that was being fried with tomato and onion, which gave it a really satisfying texture.

Along with the sauce that had been prepared, he was just getting ready to serve the dish, but looking at the amount, he felt that he had made way too much for today.

When the doorbell went off.

Ding! Ding!!

"Hmm, who can be here?" Because he had only lived there for a week, Kai only knew a small number of residents, and no one was available to meet with him.

He therefore moved slowly toward the gate and peered through the knob as he noticed a hand holding onto something and wondered who might be standing outside his door at this time.

Therefore, assuming that it might be neighbors, he opened the door to discover the girl he had helped earlier, who was holding onto a container.

"You take way too much time; my hands are getting tired."

"Hah!" Kai was stunned as he looked at the girl who was standing in front of him with scarlet red eyes and beautiful black hair, staring at him intently with a small smile on her face.

He was taken aback by that because he had never expected her to travel all the way here, in this way, and in this manner.

"First, let me in. I am getting really tired holding onto this."

The girl muttered, which made him a little anxious, as he backed up and opened the gate without thinking much, as Lena walked inside and looked at the cramped room, which was quite clean for a boy living alone.

"I am entering inside." Kai was slightly taken aback as he watched the lively girl enter his room without hesitation or concern for what he might do about it as Lena walked in.

Kai had been standing by the door, watching Lena as she entered.

"Huh, she is a cheerful kind, plus a beauty to boot; I can guess why those guys were making moves on her."

Lin Kai murmured as he also entered the space and walked toward the sitting area, where Lena had set her container down and was taking a look around.

"Hey, you can cook for yourself, and this smells much better than the meal I had made for you."

Lena was pouting at the end of the sentence as he looked at Lin Kai, who had entered the room and was making his way toward the kitchen.

"Nope, I am happy that you have made some food for me, given that not everyone gets the chance to get the food cooked by a beauty such as yourself."

After saying that, he got two eating utensils ready before leaving the kitchen and carrying on.

"So, how about it? I can't finish this much food alone. I hope you can also help me out by finishing them when they are hot and delicious."

"Alright, I accept that kind proposition of yours." Lena smiled; after all, there are no girls who do not like to get complimented for their beauty, plus the food that Lin Kai had prepared smelled really aromatic and tempting for her.

Two of them finished the entire meal because the food was served and the meat of the rabbit monster was delicious.

The dish that Lena prepared was also very tasty, and the two of them ended up conversing for a very long time while enjoying the food.

Where Lena's neighbor Lin Kai eventually discovered that he hadn't known about it right away, but after he ended up helping her.

Since he had been staying in his room for a while and she wanted to thank him in person, she waited until this date before deciding that the best way to do so would be to go and chat with him while she was eating.

She chose to prepare meals for him because, in today's society, it was extremely difficult to find a bachelor man who could cook for himself while living alone in this manner. She had no idea, however, that he was not only capable of cooking for himself, but that his food was of this caliber.

"So we are on the same course, and I did not even know of it. That's! I am really sorry about it." Kai apologized, to which Lena laughed and wiped the tear that had formed in her eyes, having discovered that Lin Kai was a really nice and funny guy.

She considered how he could be a really good friend as long as she came into contact with him, plus his eyes, which did not look at her as many others did when approaching her.

She discovered that he was treating her as an acquaintance and did not misinterpret why she had brought him that dish.

"Bye then..." Lena walked out the door, and she vanished like a gust of wind, leaving Lin Kai standing on his door, as he watched her enter her apartment before closing the door and walking inside to wash the utensils.

"She was really kind and beautiful, but not someone within my reach yet!" Lin Kai muttered as he shook his head and looked at the roof, as he had a lot to do today, so he took off his clothes and changed into some new clothes before heading out.

After all, he has to work again today, and in a week he might have to start college classes, which means he'll have less and less time to level up out there.

1 day passed... Hunting, eating, working, and then hunting again...

The second day passed... Hunting, eating, working, and then hunting again...

As the day went on, Lin Kai began to lose weight, and his body underwent a complete transformation. Even Lena was shocked to see Lin Kai leave his apartment wearing regular clothing. However, his appearance stood out from the crowd.

"Kai, is that you?" Lin Kai turned to face Lena with a smile, but she had trouble identifying him, so she walked.

"Do I really look that out of character?" Given that even he was startled by his own transformational appearance, he was only able to act shamelessly in this manner.

Lin Kai was currently at level 5, and he had undergone significant internal change. His hunting skills were also completely on professional level.

"Yes, it's almost like a new person, and you keep getting more handsome, so I think a lot of gorgeous girls might accept your proposal in this form." Shaking his head, Kai expressed some embarrassment at being praised for his appearance in this way. He had been disliked by many people for his appearance, so for him, it was rather embarrassing.

'Hehe! He is getting flustered like this; how cute.' Lena thought as she quickened her face and stepped on the stairs, where Lin Kai also picked up speed to walk beside her and asked, "That means you might also accept my proposal if I were to ask."

Lena did appear a little flustered as she looked at Lin Kai's face as he spoke after becoming embarrassed in that way. It took some time, but Lin Kai eventually came up with a good idea. "Hmph, I might think about it; after all, I am not an easy girl."

Shaking his head, Lin Kai sighed in response as he continued, "That means I have to cook for another girl to impress her, although I only got enough meat for two people from my friend, who went to get some fresh hunt."

"Hah, that's not fair! Just for a girl, you are already forgetting your beautiful neighborhood friend and dumping her on the food she had been waiting for." Lena batted her eyes and tried to be cute in front of Kai, which caused both of them to laugh as they left.

Kai then picked up his pace because he realized Lena did not want to be seen with Kai, and Lena then came down and smiled.

Even though it appeared to be a minor act from Lin Kai's perspective, she knew that Lin Kai never made an awkward appearance in front of others for her sake.
