Chapter 293: 305 A Growing Bond

With Mrazivý's stomach beginning to play a symphony of its own, Marcus told her he would whip up something really quick for them to eat.

'I am not sure exactly what time it is, but I think since we left the capital it will have been something like twenty hours, naturally Mrazivý would get hungry.'

Access his item box Marcus first took out the grill he had bought sometime back, along with a magic fridge he always kept in his item box.

Though now that his item box was quite a bit larger, he had upgraded the size of the fridge and it was basically as big as a small walk in you might find at a restaurant.

"What the hell are you doing with a fridge that big in your item box. In fact, how could you even fit something that big in there to begin with."

Of course, Mrazivý was stunned to see the huge fridge Marcus had just casually brought out. She had her own item box, but it was only a small one and the fridge Marcus just brought out was already even bigger than her entire storage.

"Talk about a waste of space, what are you going to do when your item box becomes full." Mrazivý said in utter disbelief that Marcus was carrying around something like this within the limited space of his item box.

However, Marcus responded to her with an impish smile and said, "Well last time we were stuck deep underground you complained about the bland and overly salty rations we had to eat. So, this time I came prepared."

Mrazivý's stomach then let out another loud rumble, and the embarrassment she was feeling increased again.

"Fine I guess it is better than eating dried food. But if you have the room to store this, just how big is your item box." 

Telling Mrazivý how big his item box was, she looked astonished to here that he had a large item box and that his was two hundred times larger than hers.

"Anyway, we can talk more about stuff like that after we finish eating. Now what would you like." Marcus said as he opened up his large magic fridge and revealed what was inside.

"Wow, you really have a lot here. Even my party that normally eats well for adventures does not have anywhere near this much." Mrazivý said as she perused Marcus' well stocked fridge.

Soon Mrazivý picked out the items she wanted, and just like the princess she was had picked out some of the most expensive ingredients that he had.

"You certainly do have expensive taste. You picked out the puff cow fillets that I normally only reserve for Roxene, as well as some of the uncommon vegetables that were imported from another nation."

In total the cost of just the ingredients that Mrazivý had picked out would amount to several dozen gold coins, which would normally be more than enough for someone to live comfortably for a couple of years even in the royal capital.

'Well, that is just the disparity of wealth in this world.' Marcus thought as he remembered when he had only a few cooper coins to his name.

With his ingredients picked out Marcus used his floating lantern spell as a heat source as usual, and first got stated on reducing down a sauce for the fillets.

He then liberally seasoned the vegetables with a number of the spices he had, before throwing them into a pan and sauteing them in some oil.

Next, he went to cooking the fillets first, searing them on both side and then putting them into an oven magic tool for a few minutes, before taking them out so they would be medium rare.

"Okay we just need to let the steaks rest for a bit, and then it will be ready."

Nodding her head Mrazivý took a bite out of a piece of fruit Marcus had given her to tide her over since she had gotten quite hungry.

"Delicious!" Mrazivý exclaimed as she took the first bite of the puff cow fillet.

She knew that it was going to be good, but this was beyond her expectations. In fact, it was nearly as good as the royal chef's food.

"I am glad you like it. Cooking is actually one of my hobbies and I actually have the skill up to level four." Marcus said proud of how far he had advanced since coming to this world.

Before his skill in cooking was pretty lack luster, but he had worked pretty hard to learn how to make good food after coming to Mirrion.

"Level four, that is pretty high. Just one level below the royal chef." Mrazivý said in between bites of her food.

"Really I figured that the chef in the royal castle would have something like a level seven cooking skill." Marcus said with a bit of confusion.

However, Mrazivý quickly explained why, and said, "The kingdom only has so many high level people. Do you think that they could waste someone who is around level fifty just to be a dedicated chef with a higher-level cooking skill? A level five cooking skill is actually pretty decent, and I would say very few have any higher since it is not a skill most people would prioritize."

"Okay, yeah I understand now. Oh, and did you want seconds."

With excited eyes Mrazivý held out her plate and nodded her head, obviously happy to accept more.

Soon the two of them had finished their meal and had sat down on the steps of the shrine and looked out at the fountains while listening to the music being played.

"Hey Marcus, would you mind answering a few of my questions?" Mrazivý asked a bit bashfully.

"Yeah, go ahead I have nothing to hide. I have already told you all of my most personal secrets."

"Okay then would you tell me about the world you came from. I have heard and read a few records about it from the tales from my ancestor Boreas who apparently came from another world like you." Mrazivý said with a gleam in her eyes.

She had been wanting to ask about this for a while, but the timing did not seem right until now.

"I see so he really did come from Earth like I thought." 

Marcus had seen all the signs but now he had concrete confirmation that the first king of Borealia really did come from Earth.

He then began to tell Mrazivý about the place he had come from, how it was much different from this world. 

"There really is no system or magic, in the place you are from? How does anyone accomplish anything then? I mean would the wild beasts and monsters not just kill everyone." 

Shaking his head Marcus said, "No, while there are certainly a few beasts that could harm or kill people, they are nothing like the ones in this world. Anyway, instead of magic, in my world we have advanced technology. We could send messages from around the world in an instance like that sending stone you have but on a mass scale. And we had had metal birds that flew the sky anywhere in the world, even faster than I can fly."

Marcus continued telling Mrazivý about the fantastic things about Earth he had taken for granted when he was still there. But now that he no longer had things like a cell phone, or a computer, he realized how important and convenient they had been.

"I see it sounds kind of like a utopia. Here we may have cities and do our best to protect ourselves, but every day people lose their lives to monster's or beasts, and no matter how hard we try bandits pop up like vermin."

"Yeah well, my old world had its share of problems as well, some that are far worse than here. Now is there anything else you wanted to ask me."

Nodding her head Mrazivý asked Marcus about his life back on Earth wanting to know what he had been doing before coming here.

"I was just your normal guy trying to live my life and find happiness I suppose. I had a good job, a family that loved me, and a few close friends. I mean I was only twenty-eight so really my life was just getting started when I died."

Marcus continued to answer Mrazivý's questions, telling her about his childhood, and his older sister who had recently had a child before he died.

"Sounds like you had a good life. Do you ever wish you could go back?

With a sad smile Marcus said, "There was a time that I did, especially when I first got here, but now my life is here. I mean if I could go back and see my family I would, but not at the expense of giving up what I have here, if I had to choose this world is my home now."

"Really you would rather stay here when you had so much before." Mrazivý asked with a bit of surprise on her face.

From her point of view Marcus had a pretty ideal life back on Earth, and if she would have had what he did, she would want to get back.

"Don't get me wrong I love my family, but they do not need me. They may miss me, and it may be sad for them, but they will be fine without me. Here there are people that rely on me and that I care about. Anyway, I already died so my time there is done, and trying desperately to find away back would just consume me.. Now enough about me, it is your turn to open up."
