Chapter 24: She can't use it
"Soul absorption?" Lathel frowned, he suddenly took a step back, his face showing contempt and disgust.
"Oy! What the hell is that expression? I eat souls just like you eat pork, beef or other animals." The cauldron shouted.
"No, don't misunderstand, when I'm surprised the expression on my face is just a bit strange."
Cauldron: "Do you think I'm a child?"
"Ack! Hahaha..." Lathel forced a smile: "But... hm... what kind of soul do you need?"
"The higher the level, the better. It would be even better if the souls are from magicians."
Lathel frowned: "How many souls do you need to eat?"
"Depends on the quality of the soul." the cauldron replied: "If the quality of the soul is high, just one soul will be enough for me to function for many days."
Lathel nodded, he rubbed his chin and continued asking: "That's simple, I'll take you to the cemetery, so you can eat as many souls as you like."
"Oy! Oy! Oy! Do you think I'm that low?" The cauldron said angrily: "I only eat fresh souls, which means..."
"Does that mean I have to kill people for you to eat or do you only eat the souls of people who have just died?" Lathel frowned and said.
"That's right. This condition is my final limit. If you don't agree, I don't think we need to continue negotiating." The cauldron's voice became more steadfast.
"At most, I'll wait for another 10,000 years, and I don't believe that no one will discover this place."
Hearing the cauldron's sulky voice, Lathel thought about many things. Finally, he smiled and said: "Okay, I will change the contract."
After Lathel finished speaking, he changed the goals of both sides. When the cauldron looked at it he felt that there was no problem and accepted it.
A black light flew out from the cauldron, surrounding the words on the ground.
After that, the words Lathel had written disappeared, turning into two streams of light.
One stream of light flew into the cauldron, the remaining stream of light flew in front of him.
A voice suddenly appeared in his head.
[Do you wish to enter into a contract with the 'Heavenly Rainbow Almighty Emperor Cauldron'?]
At the same time, the information of the contract appeared in his mind, inside was everything he had written, unchanged.
He smiled and thought: 'It seems... the cauldron is not all bad.'
"Agree!"
[Contract signed successfully.]
Right after that, Lathel felt that there was an extremely magical connection between him and the Cauldron, this was different from when he and Charlotte signed a contract.
"Good!" Lathel smiled with satisfaction: "From now on, we are in the same boat, I hope you will not betray the contract."
"Do not worry." Cauldron spoke up: "A contract is a type of bond certified by the gods. If you destroy it, my soul and yours will both suffer terrible punishment."
"I don't have much soul energy left. If I deliberately destroy the bonds of the contract between us, I will definitely disappear."
Hearing that, Lathel nodded. He didn't know much about the contract, but he could feel the horror of breaking the contract.
"Good, then..." Lathel smiled and said: "Happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation..."
...
"Wait! Is this what you want me to do?"
"That's right."
"This... this is not about seeing the outside world."
"Ah! This is outside, feel free to look at everything, don't worry, I can wait for you."
"But... what the hell are you doing?" Cauldron shouted.
At this time, he was placed on three stones by Lathel, underneath the cauldron was an extremely large fire. Inside the cauldron was a mixed soup of various vegetables that Lathel had found around.
Lathel used a wooden ladle to scoop up some of the soup inside the cauldron and taste it.
His face showed a satisfied smile: "Um... even though there are no spices, the taste is still wonderful."
"Ah! If I open a restaurant, I will definitely become a noble."
"Oy! Don't ignore me... do you know who I am?" Cauldron shouted angrily.
Lathel sighed: "Cauldron, I feel like you're paying too much attention to the small details."
"Look outside, the sun is warm, the grass is green, but the cool breeze and... a pot of super delicious soup is inside you, everything is great, right."
"Great? Are you kidding me?! I am the Heavenly Rainbow Almighty Emperor Cauldron, countless people yearn to possess me so they can become a great Pharmacist Enchanter, yet you use me to make soup?"
"What's the difference?"
"You..."
"Sigh..." Lathel sighed: "Cauldron, medicine is made from herbs or some foods, right?"
"That's right..." Cauldron replied in confusion.
"The same goes for food," Lathel continued: "If you know how to combine beneficial foods together, they are no different from a remedy."
"It can not only have a healing effect and supplement nutrition for the person who eats it, but it also makes the person eating it feel delicious and happy."
"So... Cauldron, between medicine and a delicious dish that has the same effect as medicine, which would you choose?"
"Of course it's a delicious dish..." the cauldron replied.
"Um..." Lathel smiled and said: "You understand this problem, you are indeed a smart cauldron. Then you just need to quietly admire the scenery, and I'll do my work, okay?"
"Hm... okay..." Cauldron faltered, he felt something was wrong, but it didn't know what was wrong.
In the end, it had to stay silent, he allowed Lathel use him to make soup as he wondered why he existed.
Lathel stirred the soup in the cauldron while thinking about many things. Suddenly, his other hand moved closer to the cauldron, and the magical energy inside his body immediately followed his thoughts and spread into the cauldron.
No, to be more precise, his magical energy was injected into the soup.
'This is...' the cauldron was startled: 'This energy... is the same as the flux of energy I encountered more than 10,000 years ago.'
'No, maybe I am wrong. Lathel's energy is much weaker than that existence. It's like the light of a candle compared to the sun.'
'Maybe... I am too sensitive.'
Lathel of course did not know what the cauldron was thinking, he was focusing on transporting energy from his energy pool into the soup.
About five minutes later, the soup seemed to give off a little light. Even though the light was very faint, if you looked closely you could still see the light of the soup.
The fragrance rose and spread everywhere. It was an extremely pleasant scent of old vegetables mixed together, besides, there was also the scent of medicinal herbs.
"Impossible!" The Cauldron couldn't control itself and shouted.
"What the hell?" Lathel was startled when he heard the Cauldron's voice: "Cauldron, while I'm concentrating, don't startle me."
"You..." The cauldron did not apologize to Lathel, on the contrary, he asked: "What did you just do?"
"Me? Hm... I just injected my magical energy into this soup. Most chefs do this to preserve and invigorate ingredients with richer flavors."
"Is something strange going on?"
"No... it's just..." the cauldron hesitated a bit as if it didn't believe what it was witnessing: "It seems you just activated the hidden properties of the ingredients in the soup, turning them into medicinal herbs."
"Hidden properties?" Lathel felt a bit confused: "Do vegetables also have hidden properties?"
Cauldron sighed: "That's right. Any type of plant has its own hidden properties, which can be beneficial or harmful to the user."
"You're right, most high-ranked chefs use the method of infusing magical energy into their dishes to make their flavors last longer."
"However... using the same method, it seems you have turned the dish into a real medicinal herb."
"If I'm not mistaken, the flavor of this soup will not only increase, but it will also help the person eating it replenish their magical energy."
"It even has the function of reducing pain and stopping bleeding. It's strange, just a few vegetables have so many functions, it's no different from other medicinal herbs."
Lathel also felt strange hearing that. He only intended to exhaust the energy inside his body, then try to replenish the energy to level up.
However... It seemed like he had accidentally struck gold.
"Your energy is a bit strange but also extremely dangerous. If other people find out, I'm afraid..."
"Don't worry." Lathel nodded and said: "I understand what you said."
Lathel of course knew how life worked 'people are innocent, but possessing precious things makes people guilty'.
He knew that there seemed to be something extremely strange about his energy, which was why he was able to activate the hidden properties of the vegetables. novelbuddy(.)com
Just think... If vegetables had the ability to replace medicinal herbs, then what would happen?
"What's that?!"
"AAA!!" Lathel was startled and this made him scream.
"Charlotte, you startled me..." Lathel gasped, he felt his heart skip a beat.
"Heh?!" Charlotte tilted her head to look at him, then looked back at the soup cauldron: "That is..."
"Do you want to eat?"
Charlotte nodded, however, her face seemed devoid of any other expression.
Lathel scooped up a plate of soup and gave her a spoon. Charlotte looked at the plate of soup and then at the spoon in Lathel's hand.
Then, she took the soup plate, put it in her mouth, and started to eat it.
"Heh?! You..."
"Don't ask..." the cauldron's voice rang out: "She doesn't know how to use a spoon, why did you give it to her?"
Lathel: "..."
