Knights: The journey of support starting with Faiz

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Jiang Ye turned around and walked outside.

Kusakabe Kō observed Jiang Ye's walking posture and, finding nothing unusual, felt relieved.

He walked awkwardly toward the bedroom.

When Jiang Xinye went out, Tiandao and Shuhua were standing at the intersection, gazing into the distance.

Only after seeing Jiang Ye leave did he take another step and disappear at the end of the road.

"Why are you still keeping such a close watch on things at a time like this?"

Jiang Ye muttered a complaint under his breath and returned to his apartment.

I just took a shower and lay down on the bed.

The voice of the system sounded in my mind.

[Congratulations, host, on successfully extracting the mayfly protozoan gene!]

[Optimization of mayfly protozoan genes begins!]

[Optimization complete, inject now?]

"injection."

[Injection complete!]

[Grade C organism gene completion progress: 7%!]

[Congratulations, host, on successfully completing the extraction and receiving your reward!]

[Steel Fighter Deck!]

"Oh?"

Jiang Ye took out the card box from the dimensional space and specifically took out the Steel Fighter card set to take a look.

Like Kabuto.

It also possesses a transcendent form!

"not bad."

With the next world coordinates one step closer, Jiang Ye put away the card box, closed his eyes, and drifted off to sleep.

Eight o'clock the next morning.

Jiang Ye was awakened by a series of clanging and banging sounds.

Along with it was an indescribable smell, like the burnt smell of a piece of glue.

As soon as Jiang Ye stood up, he smelled an even more pungent, acrid odor.

Opening the door, the entire room was filled with smoke, resembling a fire scene.

"Lianhua, what are you doing?"

Entering the living room, through the smoke, Jiang Ye saw Takatori Renka wielding a spatula in the kitchen.

"Ahem, I'm here, ahem, cooking!"

In short, Takatori Renka spoke haltingly, coughing incessantly.

Jiang Ye disregarded everything else and immediately opened the windows and doors. He could clearly see large plumes of smoke being carried away by the flowing air.

Then, he took a deep breath, returned home, and turned off the gas without caring what Takatori Renka was doing.

He pulled the other person out of the room and led them to the emergency exit where they had met the day before.

Why did you suddenly decide to cook?

Jiang Ye asked, puzzled.

Luckily, I woke up early; otherwise, if things continued like this, Takatori Renka would have blown the kitchen to smithereens.

"To be a good woman."

Takatori Renka said to Jiang Ye with great seriousness, "One of the ten principles of a good woman is to prepare three meals a day on time!"

"???"

Jiang Ye found it strange: "Where did you learn these principles from?"

"I figured it out myself."

Takatori Renka puffed out her chest slightly, looking smug.

Jiang Ye then noticed that Lianhua had changed her clothes.

His signature beret was gone.

Her long, light brown hair was naturally loose.

She wore a black, fitted sweatshirt.

Her slender waist, like a suddenly narrowing canyon, perfectly accentuates her figure.

It has a textured, uneven surface.

Her fair and slender legs were concealed by white, tight-fitting cropped pants.

Only her long, fair ankles and a small section of her smooth, tender calves were visible.

The wide and sexy hips are perfectly outlined.

Even if Jiang Ye were standing directly in front of it, he could still see some soft, bouncy curves.

"Don't bother in the kitchen, I'll take you to have breakfast."

Jiang Ye estimated that it would take at least fifteen minutes for the thick smoke in the room to dissipate.

Why not take this opportunity to have breakfast?

"No."

Takatori Renka shook her head and refused: "I want to try again."

Three meals a day is the first rule. If you can't even meet this requirement, how can you improve in the future?

"alright."

Seeing that Lianhua insisted, Jiang Ye didn't press her. The two of them chatted casually in this small corner to pass the time.

"What did you go out to in such a hurry yesterday?"

"I bought some things to prepare myself to be a good woman."

"Would you mind telling me?"

"You'll see once I've practiced enough."

……

Twenty minutes later.

The smoke in the room had mostly dissipated before the two returned.

Jiang Ye followed Lianhua into the kitchen, glanced at the pot, which contained a dark, murky mass, and found many similar items in the trash can.

"I wanted to make you a pancake, but I tried several times and failed. So I thought I'd fry two eggs, but..."

Lianhua explained with shame that she hadn't expected something that looked simple to be so troublesome.

If you're not careful, perfectly good ingredients can turn into black lumps in the pot.

Let's take it one step at a time.

Jiang Ye sighed and said softly, "Let's start by observing how others cook."

It's better to demonstrate it personally than for Lianhua to just blindly speculate on it on her own.

I fried two eggs and two sausages.

I toasted four slices of bread.

I poured a glass of milk for each of them, and breakfast was ready.

"Where exactly did things go wrong?"

Smelling the simple breakfast that seemed almost magical, making her mouth water, Lianhua fell into deep thought.

Jiang Ye took a big bite of bread and whispered to Lianhua, "Apart from soup, you should control the cooking time for any stir-fried dishes. Don't cook them for too long, and turn off the heat as soon as you smell burning."

"Isn't it just adding water?"

Takatori Renka asked blankly.

Case solved.

No wonder there was so much smoke in the room.

Jiang Ye rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "I'll teach you step by step."

Let Lianhua figure it out herself; sooner or later she'll blow up the kitchen.

Takatori Renka nodded, carefully noting down what Jiang Ye had said, before picking up the bread slice in front of her that already had egg and ham sandwiched inside and taking a bite.

The rich aroma melts in your mouth, forming a warm current that flows to your limbs and bones.

"Delicious porcelain! (It's delicious!)"

Takatori Renka looked blissful, her legs unconsciously clamping together, with half a ham still dangling from her mouth.

Jiang Ye picked up the milk on the table and took a sip to replenish her nutrition.

"Gudong!"

After quickly finishing the bread, Takatori Renju tilted her head back and drank the milk in her glass in one gulp.

"Suck it."

With her delicate tongue out, Takatori Renka licked the milk that had spilled on her lips, then quickly got up, gathered the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and headed to the kitchen to wash them.

After coming out, she came up behind Jiang Ye, massaging his shoulders while leaning down and gently kissing his forehead.

"Is this also one of the ten principles?"

Jiang Ye asked curiously.

"correct."

Lianhua proudly said, "The second of the ten principles is to know how to give men appropriate rewards, especially after they have worked hard to do something."

"You understand very well."

Jiang Ye deeply agreed.

He took a deep breath and said softly, "Actually, there's a saying in my hometown that I don't know if you've heard before."

"what?"

Takatori Renka was curious.

"Eat a hearty breakfast."

Jiang Ye said earnestly, "The amount you had just eaten wasn't much. I think we should give you a little extra food."

Takatori Renka touched her belly.

She was quite full, but since Jiang Ye had asked her to, she couldn't very well refuse.

Was hesitating.

She felt Jiang Ye pick her up and carry her towards the bedroom.

"Hey, wasn't it supposed to be an extra meal?"
