Sweat streamed down my forehead like silver threads glistening under the golden light, while my black training robes clung to my volcanic body. Severia spoke from inside my head, her voice like the rustling of trees in a night storm: "You have completed the effective test… All of your items are now three-star level one."
I nodded as I rubbed my swollen number, "Yes... that's true."
I considered the hourglass on the worn wooden table. The golden grains of sand were almost... It was time...
I secured spare parts to the small kitchen, where I started a fire by blowing on it until a small spark came out. The flames burned my face, but Brian seemed resilient enough to endure.
"What is a biryani? What kind of food is this?" Severia asked curiously, but I smirked as I successfully opened it. "Haha… You'll soon find out. Watch me."
White rice touches names like icy water beads as I soak it in the cold. For half a century, I transformed the coppery love into a boiling lake of rice like a small volcano within, then I threw it out. The golden composer swayed on the surface like autumn snow.
I wasted no time: the galaxy was cut into small cubes like emeralds, and the crispy potatoes were mixed with green peas in foods that exuded the aroma of spicy olive oil. The head of the salad was netted to the peripheral ingredients, then fried until golden brown. Then I mixed the rice and all the faculty members and then the members of parliament on the chair.
Severia [Wonderful, the food smells so good, I must admit you've outdone yourself]

Bell Crown Part (Point of View): The voices clung to the cold windowsill as she watched her brother through the transparent bird. The blue amulet on its string glittered as she pumped mana into the crystalline. And when Neo moved with strange confidence... *When did he learn to cook?*
The last few days had been a mystery. Ever since I'd asked to be with Kamel in that secret place under the black light, he'd been different. His red eyes were like the craters of a volcano, his body had gone from thin to gangly, even his voice had hints of a strong sarcasm.
*(Was that really my brother?)* The sick, lazy one, who was kidnapped for days? Now... he's dancing in his kitchen, attractive, mixing up the ingredients for a spell.
The bird flew very close this time. I noticed how new types of species began to appear, and I could feel the variety. He turned towards the window... *Did he see me?* Quickly, the spell was broken and the bird turned into the water of the window.

Back to Neo:
The biryani was ready. The scent of cardamom and cinnamon softened the aromatic bruise filling the top. I poured the tea into my blue ceramic bowl, then sat back on the rocking chair while I waited for it.
------------------
Good part you have successfully completed the test now all your elements are taken out I took out some rice then soaked it in a bowl for ten minutes then in these ten minutes I put water in a pot and made it boil then put the rice in the pot and added salt to the rice then I waited until the rice was almost completely cooked then drained it from the water then I started cutting the carrots and potatoes into small square pieces then I fried the potatoes and carrots together after I cooked I took out a can of canned peas and started frying it too then I cut an onion head and fried it then I fried the rice after that then I combined all the ingredients with the rice together and started stirring it and that's how the food was cooked

(Bella Crown's Viewpoint)
Bella noticed that her brother Neo started acting strangely, as well as his appearance and the way he spoke, but she didn't want to talk to him or ask him why he changed suddenly because she liked this change. Her brother was thin, weak-looking, lazy, and always in a depressed mood. She thought that her relationship with her brother would collapse soon. She tried more than once to rebuild their relationship, but she failed.
But suddenly everything changed on that day, on his first day at school, when she entered her brother's room and found him smiling at her and talking to her normally. She felt strange and her eyes were red for some reason, as if it was him but not him. She felt that there was something different, but after that, after she talked to his aunt, she was happy.
On the same day, her brother surprised her by revealing that he possessed the Dark Element, one of the rarest elements. Only less than 0.1% of people achieve this feat. The school principal who possessed the Dark Element
After Belle completed her duties as student council president and said goodbye to her friend, Bella returned home. She left a note saying that she would be late today.
Then she thought back to the day her brother returned from that strange cell. She knew that he was going to the black market in disguise and that he was registered in a cell and being trained, so she was watching him through a tracking spell, which is a spell that makes ice condense and turns it into a bird, then using mana, she manipulates the properties of the ice and makes it move. She pumps a quantity of mana into the bird, then releases it into the air, then transfers part of her mind to it, and thus she sees what the bird sees. So all the time she was watching her brother and observing him, even though she saw him and heard him talking to herself, but she did not hear what he was saying.
While Mant Bill Tsera saw that she had arrived at the university residence, so she smiled and went up the stairs, then she reached the door of her apartment, then she opened the door directly, a group of
The smells that assaulted her nose as soon as she opened the door: saffron, spiced meat, and things she didn't know the name of. She focused on her steps and the possibility of accessing the app, but his voice was cold and his offers:
"My dear sister... you're drooling."
Her black, red eyes met his. Bella's face turned red with embarrassment as her saliva was dripping.
Halot Bel you're talking but I hear a sound coming from her stomach
*Growl*
This was a death blow so she gave in and smiled even though her face was as red as a tomato and she felt a heat rise.
Bill, honey, what's for dinner today? I'm so hungry.
