Volume 6.5 Chapter 67: Bacon
It was not hard to imagine what had occurred. The scorch marks on the floor just gave them an idea. Diana was going to speak when she smacked Nephele's head.
"What was that for?!" Nephele held her head.
"Do you think I wouldn't notice you getting closer to the smoker?" While she explained, Nephele inched closer. The great spirit didn't react like the lion or dragon, but it was similar enough!
Grrrr! A resounding sound came from Nephele's stomach before a cry came.
"I'm hungry! I haven't had anything to eat!"
"..." Alfia and the others glanced at their stomachs. This was true; no one had a thing to eat.
"Stop acting like a child." Diana shook her head. When she scolded her,
Grrrrrr!
"..." Pure silence.
"I think your stomach is saying something entirely different," Nephele muttered.
"My stomach isn't saying anything!" Diana retorted! It was as if this was the start of a drum beat because,
Grrrr! The other stomachs started to rumble.
"Why does he always make such delicious things?!" Alfia grumbled as she grabbed her stomach. Sarah and Faelyn grabbed their stomachs with red cheeks. No one could blame them.
All the food Keith made had such an incredible scent. It was making their stomachs growl. But this one took the cake.
"Saphr, Agi! You guys can't go near it." The elf saw how her two spirits were going a little crazy because of the smell. Those two spirits were avid meat lovers.
The two calm down as they stay by her side. But they were jittering around. The thing was too delicious to pass up!
"Where did Keith go?"
"He said he would be cooking some things to match the meat."
"Really?" He was going to add more to it?
"Mmhmm." As they spoke, Keith returned to the backyard.
"I brought some things back." Keith grinned as he brought some assortments out.
"Hmm? What were you cooking?"
"I made some side dishes to go with the meat. A little heavy. However, I think it should be fine." Keith made dishes to help with the meat. He had mashed potatoes, sunnyside-up eggs, and other things.
"Is the thing ready?" Cadmus blurted out as he stared at the smoker.
"..." When did you come back?
"It's ready now. I'm going to take it out." Keith walked over to the smoker. The bacon had been smoking for hours. Perfect to try.
Opening it up, everyone froze!
It was the day of smacking; it was done by none other than smoke! It did a two-hit combo on their cheeks! Cadmus and Herrick were going crazy. How could this be so aromatic?!
The other's reaction to it was milder but more than enough!
Keith took the giant piece of bacon and noticed their expression as he raised his hand, "Hold your horses; there's something else I need to do."
"What?!" "You're killing us!"
"What else do you need to do?" Gabriel gulped as he stared at that meat. He could tell if they ate it now; it was more than perfect.
"I'm going to do some testing. I'm going to sear it." Keith grinned as he headed off. But as he was leaving, the others grabbed his hand, "Where are you going with that meat?!"
"Relax, I'm only bringing it to the kitchen." Hearing his words, everyone relaxed. The last thing he had to do was cook it in the pan. Crispy bacon was the best.
Keith sliced the bacon into strips and then placed some on the pan. The sound coming from the pan was terrific! It was a pleasant sound. As he watched the bacon, "Guys, you need to calm down. I'm not going to eat it."
While he cooked, Keith was surrounded by everybody! He got Cadmus, Jack, Herrick, and Melor inside the building. And the rest were outside by the window. They were all staring at him.
"Can't trust you. Who knows if you eat it!" Cadmus was not a fool. He couldn't trust Keith! This man might sneak one before them!
"Hah," Keith sighed as he continued to cook. Once finished, he placed the bacon on a sheet of paper, letting the oil seep out. But the moment he did, Cadmus swiped, taking at least two.
"Principal!" The others stared at him! So fast! This guy had taken the food without a chance for them!
"So delicious! It's crispy and chewy." The crunch from the bacon was incredible.
"Alright, I'm done here." It was crispy enough. He didn't need to do anything else with it.
"Keith, what about the other half?" Gabriel noticed how Keith only used half of the meat.
"Oh, I'm leaving that to eat alone." Keith grinned. He picked up the plates, "Now, let's go and eat." Thinking about it, it was better to eat in the dining room.
"On it!"
