Chapter 38 Chaotic Time

"Yin Kong's cooking skills are amazing?"

After her initial disappointment, Ms. Yoko looked at Yin Kong with curiosity.

In this era, Japan still upholds the traditional concept of men being the breadwinners and women staying at home.

Unless their main job is cooking, men rarely cook.

The most typical example is probably Kogoro Mouri. Even though Eri Kisaki's talent in the field of terrible cooking is probably comparable to that of the great Mitake Narukami, he has never thought of cooking for himself.

In fact, for several years now, it has been his underage daughter, Xiaolan, who has been doing the housework and cooking for him.

Of course, Paimon clearly didn't think that way. Upon hearing about food, she immediately forgot her earlier embarrassment and proudly introduced:

"Not just amazing, it's—incredibly amazing! Aside from Xiangling and Aikefei, I've almost never seen anyone cook better than this guy..."

Daily Task: [Cooking Skills Showcase]

It's time for the girl to experience the cruelty of this world. Please prepare a dish on the spot. The higher the level and quality, the greater the reward.

Upon hearing the system notification, Yin Kong stared at Miss Idol and confirmed once again that this was indeed a rich mine in every sense of the word.

"Oh, Yin Kong, you're cooking too? That's great! To be honest, I was a little hungry just now. Since you're making it fresh, I'd like some fisherman's toast, a satisfying salad, and radish and vegetable soup..."

Paimon's words also made Yoko Okino look at him again.

She knew Paimon had a big appetite, so she prepared an extra large breakfast, almost enough for five adults.

But now it seems I underestimated the appetite of this little white sprite.

Paimon has already eaten food that is three times its own size, and it is still not full. Is this little guy's stomach connected to another dimension?

However, despite her shock, Ms. Yoko didn't forget the "main business" and immediately stood up, saying:

"Let me help too."

Unfortunately, Paimon stopped her directly, waving his hand and explaining:

"No need, no need, the traveler is very quick. No matter how complicated the food, he can make it right here."

It was done right there and then?

Ms. Yoko couldn't help but chuckle. As expected of Paimon, even his descriptions were so exaggerated and adorable.

"But Paimon, why do you sometimes call Mr. Yin Kong 'traveler'?"

Paimon said matter-of-factly:

"It's simple, because we're always traveling."

Ms. Yoko was very interested:

"So you must have been to a lot of places?"

Paimon nodded, replying with a proud expression:

"Of course! We're the best of partners!"

"【Immortal Jumps Over the Wall】is here!"

However, just as Miss Idol was about to go further and ask for more details, she suddenly heard Yin Kong's shouts from behind.

She paused for a moment, then turned around abruptly.

Then, Yoko Okino was utterly shocked to find that Yin Kong had already come out of the kitchen carrying a golden jar full of Chinese style.

Isn't this a bit too fast?

From the moment Yin Kong walked into the kitchen until he came out, it shouldn't have taken more than twenty seconds, right?

That's not even enough time to cut a fruit platter, is it?

Of course, there was someone even more shocked than her at the scene, and that was Paimon.

"Immortal Jumps Over the Wall?!"

Yin Kong rarely used the phrase "tumbling and crawling" to describe the posture of flying, but Paimon at this moment undoubtedly fits the description perfectly.

As soon as Yin Kong placed the jar on the table, she couldn't wait to lift the lid.

Instantly, a distinct yet harmonious fragrance, rich and assertive yet gentle and pure, accompanied by rising steam, quickly filled the entire living room.

Paimon's little face was filled with surprise and lingering joy:

"Wow, traveler, how did you remember this dish's recipe? Wait! I know, it must be Zhongli!"

And that is indeed the case. Not only does he know the recipes for "Ash Jumps Over the Wall," but this Geo Archon also knows almost all of Liyue's recipes, and even their history.

Although a significant portion of the dishes could not be cooked due to a lack of ingredients, it also allowed Yin Kong's menu to expand many times over.

Delicacies from land and sea gather together, and the aroma of fine food fills the air as soon as the jars are opened.

When Miss Yoko came to her senses, she found that she, Paimon, and Yin Kong had already divided up the entire jar of Immortal Jumps Over the Wall.

Miss Idol knelt on the ground, feeling as if she had completely lost something, and the last bit of fighting spirit in her heart had been completely burned away.

The moment she tasted such exquisite food, she understood that this level of culinary skill was probably beyond what could be achieved through mere hard work.

【原石×20、摩拉×8150、好感度经验×70、精锻用良矿×6、精锻用魔矿×2】

I actually got double the reward?!

Upon seeing the mission reward, Yin Kong blinked and stood there stunned for several seconds before finally confirming that he hadn't misread it.

Not only resources like Mora, but even Originium were given double the daily rewards.

He quickly opened the adventure manual to confirm that he had indeed only completed one daily quest.

Realizing what had just happened, Yin Kong's eyes lit up, and his gaze became exceptionally fervent as he looked at Miss Yangzi kneeling on the ground.

Unfortunately, it's obviously not easy to come across such a task.

No matter how Yin Kong tried to subtly probe and carefully guide the conversation, he was unable to trigger a similar task again.

"Miss Yoko, don't be discouraged. Travelers are special, and it's not a big deal that you lost to him."

With the two people's comfort, Miss Idol finally regained her energy.

At this point, Paimon finally remembered their real business:

"By the way, Ms. Yoko, don't you think the weather is a bit strange today?"

"Strange? The weather?" Yoko Okino paused for a moment before asking doubtfully, "While it doesn't snow very often in Tokyo, it's hardly strange, is it?"

Paimon scratched his head and said:

"But wasn't it still summer yesterday? And shouldn't snow only happen in winter?"

Ms. Yoko was even more puzzled:

"It's winter today, what's so strange about it snowing?"

"What? Miss Yoko, you're saying it's already winter today?" Paimon asked in shock. "But yesterday was summer, and today is winter. Isn't that strange?"

"Is there anything wrong with this?"

"This is just not right!"

Seeing that Paimon and Yoko Okino were looking at each other very strangely, Yin Kong immediately asked:

"Miss Yoko, may I ask what the date was yesterday?"

Although Yoko Okino was puzzled, she vaguely realized the problem and honestly replied:

"August 8th."

Yin Kong continued to ask:

"And what about today?"

Miss Yoko replied:

"November 24th, Mr. Yin Kong, what happened?"

Chapter 39 The Tide of Proclamation

What day of the week was yesterday?

What day of the week is it today?

What comes after three?

"Of course it's four!"

"Then why is it Friday after Wednesday?"

"Yes, Friday comes right after Wednesday, is there a problem with that?"

"Ugh, I can't take it anymore!" After repeated inquiries yielded no results, Paimon could only turn to Yin Kong for help, "Traveler, is Miss Yoko possessed by an evil spirit? She must be possessed!"

Yoko Okino also looked over immediately, her expression somewhat uneasy.

After all, she knew that Yin Kong and Paimon were not ordinary people and could see many dangers that ordinary people could not perceive.

“Miss Yoko, don’t be nervous. I don’t think this is your problem.” Yin Kong first comforted the idol, then explained to Paimon, “If it’s just that her perception is flawed, it shouldn’t affect the season and weather.”

Paimon suddenly realized:

"Yes, this is an anomaly in the entire city. I just don't know if the whole world has become like this."

Yin Kong slowly said:

“Zhongli told me yesterday that the world may have paid an unknown price to defeat the abyss. I guess this chaotic period is that price.”

Paimon finally understood:

"But ordinary people like Ms. Yoko are simply unaware of the problem?"

Yin Kong nodded and said:

"I think that's true. Just like how we think that after today comes tomorrow, and after Wednesday comes Thursday, even if someone tells you that these are all wrong, you would just find it hard to understand, right?"

Paimon analyzed:

"Wait, isn't this the same situation as the World Tree? Once the records in the World Tree are tampered with, everyone's perception will be automatically corrected. Hmm, so this time I'm an exception, just like you."

Yin Kong corrected:

"Indeed very similar, but I think this situation is far more thorough than modifying the World Tree."

After all, the World Tree can only modify existing records and people's perceptions.

True history will not change because of this.

But right now, it's the real power of time.

Not only have the seasons changed, but people's lifestyles have also undergone tangible changes.

Take Ms. Yoko as an example again. She rushed back from the crime scene yesterday and didn't bring many personal items or changes of clothes.

But now, there are warm winter clothes in the entryway.

If nothing unexpected happens, the furnishings in her room and the bedding on her bed should automatically change to winter styles.

"Wow, amazing! Is this the power of time? It's incredible. Could it be that there's something here that governs time itself?"

"maybe."

Seeing Paimon's amazed expression, Yin Kong's expression couldn't help but become somewhat subtle.

Because this little guy's true identity may not be lower than Ishtar's, and there is even a high possibility that he is the alt of the Great King.

Paimon, naturally oblivious to these things, was filled with worry as he said:

"So, is the world actually on the verge of collapse? What should we do, Yin Kong? Quickly, use the invincible Mr. Zhongli to think of a solution!"

Yin Kong patted the little guy's head and comforted him with a smile:

"That being said, we don't need to worry too much. Because the invincible Mr. Zhongli has already said that, apart from time, the other laws of this world are still very stable."

Therefore, even if it is truly in imminent danger, it is only for the entire world.

For ordinary people, even if destruction were to occur, it would likely be decades, or even centuries, away…
