Chapter 10: For His Stomach

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Three months later, he would finish his mission here and would be transferred away from Planet Trash. Kite had decided to establish some contacts using money, so he could be transferred to the battlefield.
He might end up becoming only a minor soldier there, who was responsible for transporting military necessities. But, on a dangerous battlefield, he would be able to accumulate a lot of achievements and would have a greater possibility of being promoted.
Kite had never expected that he would get to eat the delicious Nature Food on a barren place like Planet Trash.
The two dishes made out of Nature Food which he had just eaten, were probably as delicious as those served at the fancy restaurants of Alliance Stars.
Kite had never eaten at those fancy restaurants, but before he came to Planet Trash, he had bought some desserts from an elite restaurant for his boss’s daughter. At that time, he had witnessed the food being served there.
He had sniffed the dishes and they possessed a great aroma, similar to the dessert that he just ate.
Kite was in a good mood and was feeling rather happy after consuming one piece of sweet potato and a bite of the apple pie.
He had intended to save some for the next day, but they were so good that he could not stop himself.
Soon, he finished both the things.
Seeing the empty plate, Kite decided to ask his nephew to get some more delicacies made out of Nature Food the next day.
These dishes might be expensive, but as a district captain on Planet Trash, he was able to afford such a meal every now and then.
What was more, the price he paid right now was not even 1/10th of the price of the dishes served at luxurious restaurants. So, to some extent, he was getting a good deal here!
Kite, who had eaten these dishes simply because of their taste, suddenly found that his physique had undergone a change when he got up the following morning.
To Kite’s surprise, he noticed that his physical condition jumped up to A from B+ overnight, according to the scanning test of Light Head.
It would normally take at least two or three years of constant exercise to reach this degree!
But the data in front of him was not false. He could even feel the difference in his body. What on earth happened in a day’s time?
At this moment, Kite was reminded of the two plates of delicacies made from Nature Food that he ate yesterday…
“Someone, get Ken here! I need to talk to him now!”
Could his breakthrough be related to the food?
Kite needed to confirm this. If so, this may be a great opportunity for him to get rid of his current status as a minor soldier of a minor Warband in Alliance!
As long as he was able to get stronger consistently, he might be able to actualize his dream one day – to be on the battlefield!
…
Lan Jiao received a large order of sweet potatoes and apple pies.
Ken’s uncle, Captain Kite, wanted more food made out of Nature Food. In fact, he was okay with everything she made!
Lan Jiao was very satisfied with the price that Captain Kite had offered.
Lan Jiao asked for a series of ingredients and made various small desserts with them. She packed them well and asked Ken to take the package away.
Mi Lai, who had just eaten a small steamed bun with mung-bean filling and spinach wrapping, was shedding tears of happiness.
The steamed bun had a soft and tender wrap with a light taste of spinach. And the soft, sticky mung-bean paste was sweet and soft. It was a delicacy!
But he could only eat one bun, the rest were all gone.
For one second, Mi Lai did not like seeing Ken coming here!
As soon as he appeared, everything Lan Jiao had made would be taken away…
Lan Jiao had just finished eating a peach-shaped steamed bun with red-bean filling in it, when she noted Mi Lai’s grievance filled face.
She laughed and rubbed Mi Lai’s soft blonde hair, consoling him in a soft voice. “When we get more ingredients tomorrow, I will make sure you are fed first!”
Really…
Mi Lai was so moved hearing her words that he almost burst out in tears.
He was going to eat till he was full! He was not just going to get one small bite but a whole meal made out of Nature Food.
Mi Lai had never thought that Lan Jiao would be so generous!
Lan Jiao was such a nice person!
He had found the right master!
Err… was that the case??
Anyways, as long as he got good food to eat!
Mi Lai didn’t notice that he had become Lan Jiao’s follower from Lan Jiao’s friend, and now, he was on the way to becoming Lan Jiao’s pet…
…
District Nine on Planet Trash 101.
Captain Kite shivered with excitement, as he received the snacks from Ken.
Seeing the pretty looking dishes, he truly hoped that they could help him boost up his energy and strength.
With his nephew’s drooling gaze fixed at the food, Kite hesitated for a long time before picking up one pig-head shaped snack from the plate. It was not bigger than the size of a fist. He gave it reluctantly to his nephew.
Kite said in a pretentiously generous tone, “Try it!”
Then he sent his nephew away.
Ken was not very happy with his uncle’s stinginess. Why hadn’t he noticed it ever that his uncle was such a miser?
Ken went straight to Lan Jiao after he left his uncle’s place.
Lan Jiao had promised to make the insect dishes one more time, for which he had arranged the exchange items, Nature Food, already!
Kite soon finished the snacks. He was pretty full after consuming them.
After the meal, he instantly scanned his body with Light Head.
A moment later, he realised that the food had not only preserved the energy of the ingredients, but also made one’s body absorb the nutrients at a higher speed due to some special cooking method.
He could finally confirm that these dishes had helped improve his physical condition!
Although he might not be able to become strong too soon, if he was able to consume this kind of food on a long time basis, the results would be much better as compared to his current diet of middle-level nutritive solutions. Even consuming Nature Food directly would not be as good as eating Lan Jiao’s cooked dishes.
As per the data shown by the Light Head, these dishes made out of Nature Food contained three times more energy than the energy in Nature Food itself.
It was already considered to be a miracle, if 50% of food energy was retained when one was eating ordinary Nature Food.
Yet when it came to this delicious food, the body could take in 100% of it!
That’s it! He was going to eat this henceforth. It was a good deal for him. All he only needed to do was spend some money and gain energy that was six times more!
So Kite made a decision. He was going to eat only these delicious dishes made out of Nature Food every day from this day on, till the time he was on Planet Trash!
Even if it was at the cost of spending all the money he had!
