While Kim Hana was preoccupied with her thoughts, Oliver placed the fishes he had brought beside her while he went to the slightly torn sofa and sat down with his back against it.

In fact, he was so tired right now that he needed to rest.

He glanced at Kim Hana as he sat down, wanting to see what she would do.

Apparently, she actually stood up, picking up the fish before walking into the kitchen.

"I hope the stove is really still working," she said as she passed him.

Her tone was slightly nonchalant.

Despite the fact that she felt this was something romantic, she somehow wanted to show a slightly angry attitude at being asked to cook.

This kind of thing could probably only be said to be a woman's personality that would not change.

"Just grill, and use any wood. If you can't light the fire, come back here," Oliver replied.

Kim Hana did not slow down her pace as he spoke, but she still glanced at him once.

After that, she went into the kitchen.

Alone, Oliver laid his head on the back of the bed, closing his eyes with his face up.

He thought he was getting a little sleepy while just sitting still.

However, then he opened his eyes again.

This was because he smelled smoke.

Once his eyes opened, he found faint white smoke coming out of the kitchen.

From the looks of it, the cooking equipment in this house was still there.

Oliver felt calmer so he could close his eyes again. Unconsciously, he began to enter a half-asleep state.

That was until he heard the sound of something being placed on the table. His eyes opened spontaneously.

Kim Hana turned out to be in front of him, and she placed about three plates on the table in front of him where each plate was full of grilled fishes that looked oily, the natural oil from their bodies.

"These fish are cooked, but we still need clean water to drink. Is your water drinkable? If not, we'll use the water in the river," Kim Hana said as she watched him open his eyes.

The concept that the water he released from his body was drinkable was a bit uncomfortable for Oliver to hear.

It might not matter if it was someone else drinking it, but he himself objected. It gave him the impression of drinking his own sweat.

Unfortunately, he didn't bring any water bottles because from the start he and his aunt had only planned to hunt monsters around the base.

Unexpectedly, they all went far because they found their strength too far above average.

"Then we'll just use the river water, but boil it first, you haven't put out the fire yet, right?" Oliver replied.

It was a good thing they were by the river, so there was no need to worry about water. All they needed to do was boil it first because the water from the river was too heavy to drink straight.

Kim Hana nodded to him as she said, "I'll get the water then!"

She stood up straight and was ready to take a step.

It seemed that she had already decided that she would prepare all the necessary things for this lunch.

Oliver grabbed her wrist before she actually took a step.

"Stay here, what if you get attacked by monsters suddenly," Oliver said with a furrowed brow.

He reprimanded her directly, but this was also because she seemed to be showing a sarcastic attitude from her actions.

Without a doubt, she wasn't entirely voluntary, there was still a desire to protest from her over something she herself was happy about because of her romantic outlook.

Before she reacted to being stopped, Oliver controlled a few liters of water from the river and brought it to this house, which was very easy for him.

In no time, the water arrived inside the house, floating in front of Kim Hana.

Shua!

Oliver then dropped the water into a sizable container.

That way, Kim Hana only had to carry the container and boil it in the kitchen.

If he used his golden flame, it was feared that the water would just evaporate.

Since Kim Hana was used to his control over the water, she didn't react much.

She shook her hand for him to release her hand that he had been holding.

After that, she went to the kitchen with the container of water.

It was quite heavy for a woman, but she was already stronger than an ordinary human, so she had no trouble carrying the container.

In the end, Oliver had to wait for the water again. If only the woman had told him earlier.

However, he didn't close his eyes again. His eyes were watching outside.

Vaguely, he actually sensed the presence of monsters from the river.

It seemed that some Lamia came out from their base again, but they went upstream or downstream of the river without showing their presence, just swimming under the river.

If they didn't bother, Oliver still chose to relax.

Minutes passed, and Kim Hana finally returned with two cups and a large glass bottle filled with hot-looking water.

She placed both cups on the table and filled them with the hot water.

"Please eat," she said, and sat down across from Oliver.

She pulled out a plate for her, and used a fork to pick at the fish meat.

It was very easy since each fish had a large size.

However, she reacted strangely when she put one piece of fish meat into her mouth.

Who knows what she was feeling.

Oliver didn't think much, starting to eat.

When he tasted the flavor of the fish meat, he finally understood why Kim Hana reacted strangely.

The fish meat was well cooked, but the flavor was very bland, only having the aroma of grilled fish.

This was obviously due to the absence of seasoning plus Kim Hana's perfunctory cooking.

Fortunately, Oliver had the experience of living as a commoner before he was taken in by his aunt.

Even though his parents didn't provide food like this fish which has almost no flavor, he still had the experience of tasting fish like this when he fished with his friends as a kid and then grilled the fish themselves.

The lack of flavor did not stop him from eating. He continued to eat and even looked ravenous, surprising Kim Hana.

'Does he like it?' she wondered and it made her heart beat faster.
