Late at night, on the wilderness.
The orange flames danced in the wind, bringing a bit of warmth in the darkness. A pot cooking mushrooms and cured meat gurgled, emitting the aroma of food.
Xili and Celebrian sat around the campfire, staring intently at the inviting thick soup in the pot, continually swallowing saliva.
Having traveled continuously for days without a meal.
Both of them were the weakest in the team, far from reaching the Deities Realm of self-circulating Magic Power, hence the feeling of hunger was inevitably strong.
After a wait, Xili's patience began to wane:
"Isn't it ready yet?"
"Just a bit longer."
Luo En spoke in a relaxed manner, then timed his action, opened the Magic Circle Diagram, and sprinkled salt, chopped parsley, rosemary, and other seasonings into the pot.
Instantly, a rich fragrance wafted through the air, stirring up a hunger in the stomach.
