The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 1214

Chapter 1214: Dinner and History

Sitting at Dinner, the conversation was lively, and Opal had colluded with Matilda to have multiple illusionary screens playing back dozens of interesting scenes from Karl and Dana’s lives.

The crowd was enthralled by the spectacle, as most of them had been present for at least one of the events shown, and Opal had tactfully skipped over the private moments when she created the montage.

Well, most of them.

Karl could see that there were a few touching scenes included, including one from just the other day, when they were sitting on the mountaintop and meditating while Button slept on Karl’s lap.

"Who are the cat and the fox? I don’t see them here." Karl’s father asked quietly.

"That’s me and Dana. It’s a transformation skill, and the furred form really is more comfortable to relax in. The temperature control is spectacular, like being in the upper levels of the mine, where it’s not too hot, but never gets cold." Karl explained.

Jake’s eyes lit up in joy as he realized that all those scenes were actually his son, and not something that he was present for or had helped orchestrate.

Some of them he couldn’t understand, either because the sight was too bizarre, or because the superhuman physical abilities made it impossible for his eyes to keep up. But now that he knew who all the people were in the scenes, it made much more sense.

The servers at dinner were all Elves, and they giggled as they saw Lyric sitting next to Dana with a cloth napkin tucked in her collar. It was the only way to convince Button not to continually remove her own, but though the Elf appeared to be barely a teenager, she was closer to forty years old in human years.

Far too old to not know how to eat without making a mess.

Button was intent on disassembling her dinner so that she could identify every single ingredient. Most of them didn’t grow anywhere that she had ever been, but the food was wonderful, and she needed answers.

"Why don’t we ask if you and Lotus can talk to the cook after dinner? They will be able to tell you all the right ratios to recreate the meal." Karl suggested.

Button paused her disassembly and smiled. "I get to bring Sister Lotus?"

Karl nodded. "She has a skill known as Mystic Cooking, and I believe that it might be necessary to create these dishes."

The flying Fae overhead giggled. "Oh, he got it right the first time. He’s good."

It wasn’t just the foreign ingredients. Part of the taste was also the magic that went into the creation.

One of the flying Fae landed on top of Karl’s wine glass and waved to get his attention.

"Do you really have people who can use Mystic Cooking?" She asked.

Karl nodded. "Out of the ones here, I think there are just two of them, but yes."

"I must tell the cook. They love to discuss food with people who actually understand."

Karl saw that his dad was deep in discussion with the Dwarves about the merits of various mining techniques, so he chose to leave them to it for now. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

A few of the Fae laughed.

The Dwarves had a grudge against the Elven Wine that was the most popular alcoholic beverage in the Fae Realms. But there were other options, and none of them would ever be considered the equal to Dwarven Ale.

At least not by the Dwarves.

Fortunately, there were Dwarves in the Fae Realm, so they did have it available. But if Karl was looking for a new experience, he was unlikely to find one with that particular group.

Even his father smelled like he was a good part Dwarf to the Fae.

But before they could say anything, Karl was already off to the training grounds, where the majority of the Demons and Dragons had gone to compete with each other.

Even Sapphire was there.

Whether that was for the eye candy or because she wanted technical data for an experiment was unclear. However, she was in attendance, and sitting in the bleachers.

"Karl, are you going to join us? We’re having a wrestling match. No skills, no flying, no striking." Lord Drodh asked.

Karl smiled. "Sounds fun to me. Just let me standardize my size a little. Being short and strong is an unfair advantage in a grappling match."
