I'm not just human!

He even picked up the foie gras-baked snails with a fork while simultaneously grabbing a champagne-braised pheasant, alternating between the two.
Governor Ellis remained silent, while Baldr's face twitched. Fortunately, both of them were extraordinary beings and had signed the Great Strength Pact, so they were not afraid of getting tired no matter how long they stood.
Finally, after a long wait, the mysterious, unknown, and vague entity stood up, seemingly having eaten and drunk its fill.
On the oval ebony dining table, only scraps of food remained, with only the candlesticks in the four corners still intact, and even the Barbara rum cake was gone.
No, there's still one dish left. It's a snack, smoked dried silver cod, made with golden-lined silver cod, which is also a supernatural creature!
Just as the blurry figure stood up and disappeared abruptly, the three of them hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief when the blurry figure reappeared, sat down, and then reached out without hesitation to pick up the plate of smoked silver cod!
Immediately, the blurry figure stood up again, disappearing along with the smoked dried cod.
Silence, an absolute silence, permeated the opulent banquet hall of the Balder family.
Both Governor Ellis and the Bald father and son remained silent.
Until the time on the bronze clock hanging on the wall pointed to 10:05.
The blurry figure disappeared at 9:50.
"Father, fifteen minutes have passed..."
Young Baldr spoke with lingering fear.
Upon hearing this, Balder breathed a long sigh of relief:
"We... should be safe now."
Governor Ellis remained silent. From the moment that mysterious entity appeared until now, he had not uttered a single word.
He glanced at the portly father and son, then turned and flew out through the carved window sill.
The Bald father and son exchanged a glance and immediately followed, flying with Governor Ellis all the way to the garden.
At this point, Governor Ellis seemed to finally relax completely, and unconsciously wiped the sweat from his brow.
"We should be safe now. Although there have been precedents of entities chasing down superhumans across half a kingdom, the entity we encountered today doesn't seem to be that kind of thing."
Balder nodded in agreement:
"Thanks to the Lord's protection, we are very lucky."
Governor Ellis sighed:
"Yes, when many superhumans first encounter an unknown entity, even if they do nothing like us, they are likely to die suddenly because they violate the entity's rules."
Balder suddenly revealed a perfectly timed hint of guilt:
"Your Excellency, I am truly sorry, this banquet..."
Governor Ellis waved his hand:
"It's alright, it's not your fault. Alright, time is of the essence. I must inform the other races, our human military, and major newspapers about this new entity."
After a slight pause, as if summarizing, with a hint of relief at surviving a disaster and a touch of pride, he solemnly said:
"At the very least, when this entity appears, remaining still and letting it finish eating and drinking before leaving is safe. This is extremely important intelligence, and it's the first rule we need to follow when facing this entity!"
Chapter 15: Experimenting with New Abilities!
Rum City, Daniel Street, slums.
This is a two-story attic building that has been exposed to wind and rain for many years, and is now dilapidated and on the verge of collapse.
The gray-white walls are cracked and peeling, and the wooden roof and balcony railings show signs of decay.
But at this moment, in the living room on the first floor, Xia Fa, lying on the sofa, felt a sense of happiness from the bottom of her heart for the first time in her life.
Having lived two lives, he had rarely eaten so heartily and with such enjoyment.
In his previous life, he was an orphan and his life was always very hard.
As for what he's done in this world... well, he hasn't had a proper meal in three days and hasn't had a good night's sleep in three days.
Therefore, this lavish meal, so characteristic of the Kingdom of Augu, truly satisfied his appetite.
If he weren't so full, he would have loved to go to another nobleman's house for a hearty meal.
"I think I really overdid it this time..."
Seeing that the soreness in his body was easing, but at a much slower pace than before, Xia Fa couldn't help but sigh softly and shake his head with a smile.
He could clearly feel that the extraordinary power contained in today's feast was dozens of times greater than the two extraordinary substances he had eaten before. Logically, the soreness should have subsided much faster, but the opposite was true.
Under these circumstances, it's really impossible to continue exercising today.
"Well... anyway, I've finally reached my goal of 100 push-ups. Now I only need to do a 1,000-meter jog and 100 pull-ups. I'll try to finish them all tomorrow..."
With that in mind, Xia Fa felt at ease lying on the sofa for a while.
His body ached terribly, but his stomach was barely full, though he still felt somewhat unsatisfied. This dual effect caused him to lie down for a while longer, a full half hour, before he finally managed to get up.
First, he placed the plate of smoked dried fish that had been reserved for the doll girl in a cool, shady spot in the cupboard. Then, Xia Fa took out Benedict's training notes and flipped to the second page to take a look.
There were a few more lines of text on it.
Xia Fa read it aloud with great interest, word by word.
[Benise's eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had thought of a way to break the ritual magic circle!]
[Benise starts trying!]
[The attempt to crack the code failed, and Benedict scratched her head in frustration again...]
"This……"
Xia Fa chuckled. Could it be that the reason Benedict said she wouldn't be back until tomorrow afternoon was because she knew that breaking this ritual array would be very difficult?
"Luckily, I brought back a plate of smoked dried anchovies this time, and these anchovies seem to be supernatural creatures, so I can treat her to a good meal..."
Thinking this, Xia Fa nodded and walked back to the peach wood table.
Although he was indeed full, it was precisely because he was full and no longer bothered by the hunger that made him scratch his head that he was able to concentrate on the next thing!
"After bullet time, I got a second cheat, which is this... um... randomly getting free meals?"
Xia Fa pondered for a moment and quickly came up with a name for his second new ability.
Based on his previous experiences, it seems that he only needs to sit down on the paulownia wood chair in front of his own peach wood table to instantly teleport to a dining table full of food.
Moreover, it doesn't seem to require any physical or mental exertion.
But the question is, how many times a day can this ability to randomly freeload meals be used?
Is there a maximum distance limit?
And, is it absolutely necessary to use this mahogany table and paulownia chair at home to start it?
Driven by the spirit that practice makes perfect, Xia Fa immediately began his experiment with great enthusiasm, despite his aching body.
First, he pulled out the paulownia wood chair and sat down again.
The familiar old-fashioned attic scene around me immediately changed, and I could hear the sounds of knives and forks clattering against plates and people eating heartily.
Xia Fa looked around and was immediately stunned.
What you see is a magnificent and vast palace, with the roof alone reaching a height of over a hundred meters.
And whether he was on his left or right, or directly in front of him, the people who were eating all looked very strange.
They have human-like features, but they have an extra, constantly moving eyeball on their nose, located right in the center of their nose.
There is also a mouth on each side of the cheek.
This resulted in everyone being very busy, because they only had one pair of hands, yet they had to stuff food into three mouths at the same time.
All of these strange humanoid creatures wore golden crowns and luxurious robes, clearly belonging to royalty.
Apart from that, the food they ate was quite normal, consisting of whole roasted lambs, whole roasted cows, and whole roasted deer.
In the middle of the long table sat a huge grilled fish, somewhat like a grouper magnified dozens of times, with a crispy, oily skin that was radiating heat.
Without a doubt, the moment Xia Fa appeared, the group of strange humanoid creatures were all startled.
Xia Fa was also startled. Based on his previous experience, he originally thought that every time he teleported to someone else's restaurant, the restaurant would be empty.
Unexpectedly, this time a long table was filled with hundreds of people!
He was about to get up and go back immediately to avoid being surrounded and chased, but suddenly, he froze.
Because, the moment these strange humanoid creatures saw him appear, although they all widened their eyes and the eye in the center of their noses in terror, they did not make any further moves!
Indeed, instead of making any further moves, they all seemed frozen in place, their movements still and motionless.
Therefore, Xia Fa saw his current appearance in the reflection of the knife and fork held by the strange humanoid creature opposite him.
He saw himself as if he had been covered by a thick mosaic, blurry and indistinct. Even looking at himself in the mirror up close, he couldn't recognize himself.
"It actually blurred my appearance and figure. This cheat is pretty useful!"
Xia Fa was overjoyed. He realized that under these circumstances, the strange humanoid creatures around him wouldn't recognize him, although he didn't know why they were standing still.
But Xia Fa made a quick decision and reached out to grab a large piece of fish from the huge grilled fish in the middle of the long table.
Then, he immediately got up and teleported away.
There was no way around it; the grilled fish was just too delicious, and even though he was already full, he still wanted to try some.
The next moment, the surrounding scenery changed, and Xia Fa found himself back in the cabin.
After a brief self-assessment, he found that he had not suffered any physical or mental exhaustion, and he nodded in approval.
"It seems that activating this ability does not consume physical or mental energy, which is convenient."
Before continuing the experiment, Xia Fa first looked at the grilled fish in his hand.
The white, tender fish meat, with its oil dripping down your fingers, exudes a fragrant aroma that wafts straight to your nose.
The fish skin, roasted until soft and chewy, is sprinkled with chili powder, sesame seeds, and crushed peanuts.
It has to be said that although that race is ugly, they seem to know a lot about food.
Xia Fa took a bite, and the fish was grilled to perfection, firm yet fresh and delicious. The fragrant fat inside the fish skin burst in her mouth, filling it with the aroma of grilled fish.
Moreover, that giant grilled fish was undoubtedly a supernatural creature, and the supernatural power contained in that huge lump of grilled fish meat was comparable to the truffle omelet that Xia Fa had eaten before.
