Then we moved out of the desert into the nearby rainforest, where we picked various strange fruits, from eye-shaped fruits to fruits resembling screaming heads or hands.

Afterward, we moved to the gardens, where we picked eyeball flowers and their tubers, purple colored giant potato-like growths with tentacles.

And lastly, we moved to the oceans, where we fished a large monstrous fish from the depths, resembling a mix between an eel and a catfish, with purple and black scales.

"Alright! I think this is enough for a good feast," I said with a nod. "Shall we return, father?"

"Indeed, it's quite the haul, and there's even more where that came from, amazing!" he said with amusement. "I suppose… Hm?"

However, out of nowhere, he stopped talking and looked at the twisting purple and black, cosmic skies of this chaotic realm.

He seemed curious about something.

Ugh, don't tell me…

"Father? What's wrong?" I asked nervously, as Ismena and Acelina carried the big bag of ingredients.

"I could swear I felt something beyond that space, like, there's something beyond that dimensional wall," his eyes squinted. "My daughter, your Realm might be bigger than you think!"

"Eh?" I wondered, as I saw him floating towards the skies.

Don't tell me he actually felt the Divine Realm?!

Are you kidding me?

Just how strong is he?!

"W-Wait!"

I quickly grabbed his legs and dragged him down.

"Dad, let's just get out already! This is my Realm, and I'll investigate things on my own, okay? please respect my personal space…"

"A-Ah! You're right, I might have gotten too cocky there, this is indeed a part of your body, I have no right to do anything in here," he admitted. "Let's go back… However, you should definitely inspect your Realm some more, my daughter. I believe you could find even more space over there."

"Y-Yeah, sure, I'll do it on my own time, don't forget what our goal is in here dad," I said.

"Yes, yes, I forgot, let's go," he nodded.

We moved out of the Chaotic Gate back home, where we quickly walked to the kitchen, meeting Araña directly, who was quite shy but still tried to act confidently in front of father.

"S-So you want me to make food with these ingredients, my lord? It does seem… quite complicated, I have never worked with such high-quality ingredients," she muttered shyly. "But I will try my best to deliver something delicious for you!"

"Don't worry Araña, my daughter here will help you out," my father said, patting my shoulders.

"Yeah, nice to meet you," I said, as she shyly glanced at me with her big purple eyes.

"U-Um, it's an honor, young lady…" she muttered. "Uhh… Ahhh…"

She was a bit awkward, but she was cute that way I guess.

"Don't worry, I'll try to be nice," I said. "Let's work together… Is Medea coming as well?"

"Yes, she'll be here in any moment," nodded father. "Ah, there she is."

FLASH!

Suddenly, a black and purple magic circle appeared in front of us, and then an explosion of black smoke, where Medea emerged amidst it.

"I am here! Master, young lady, was there something you needed?" she asked, wearing a new black and red dress this time, looking pretty gorgeous.

"Yeah Medea, I wanted to ask you to help me out cooking something for father with your magic, they're Cosmic and Chaos type ingredients," I said.

"E-Eh? Wait, what?" Medea was confused, glancing at me, my father, and Araña. "You mean to say that you've found ingredients that can satiate your father's hunger, young lady?!"

"Yep, inside of my Chaotic Realm," I explained. "And a Chaotic Realm is…"

I went on for a few minutes explaining to her what was what, and she quickly understood, nodding. Once things were ready, father walked away, and we started inspecting the ingredients. Araña and Medea spent a good half and hour just looking at them from up closely and seeing what they could do.

After that, they let me take the reins, and I guided them on what to do. Araña's cooking abilities were borderline magical, she was capable of handling any ingredient, even those she had never seen before just after inspecting it lightly. She was capable of easily telling me what we could do with every ingredient to make them into a big meal for father.

With her amazing abilities and genius mind, plus Medea's magic to handle the dangerous ingredients and enchant them, we moved from one ingredient to another, cutting them, deep frying them, boiling them, and combining them into a wondrous meal.

And…

"It's done… I believe this has been the hardest dish I've ever cooked… We've managed to squeeze every ingredient and their flavors and textures," Araña said with a gentle smile. "I call it, Abyssal Noodles with Umbral Star Sauce, the side dish are Toxin Cactus Croquets and Tentacled Fries."

"It sure has an interesting appearance to it…" Medea commented, looking at the food with a weird expression. "My lady is this really going to help your father?"

"It has to," I said. "Let's hope for the best."

We walked outside, as we served the entire meal to father, who had just come back from being busy on a formal meeting with several investors and businessmen.

"There you go father! Your meal." I said, placing everything over the table. "Enjoy it."

"Oho? It does look very appetizing…!" He said with a pleased voice. "Let me see…!"

He started eating the croquets first, his face constantly twisted, showing various colors as if it were an black, red, purple, and blue watercolor painting.

"Hmm…! T-This is good…! I thought the juicy cactus would remain wet but it has become similar to potatoes? And it's so soft and creamy…"

He moved to the fries, which were even better than regular potatoes, with a sweet and spicy flavor to them, which he described himself.

"Hmmm!"

And then he moved to the main dish, eating the black noodles with their purple and red sauce, sizzling hot, he ate everything, and we kept bringing him more, until serving him all the food we cooked.
