“Mom, Dad, come here and see, I won the lottery,” a few days ago, I had Aashi buy those lottery tickets with two out 20 of them having rewards and others are all blanks. But it’s enough for us to buy a property in a mid-class society.

“Son, where did you get these from and where did the money come from to buy these,” father asked trying to look angry but I can see, he is a bad actor as for excuse I already thought of.

“Dad, there were twenty of these in a buddle and I pick them up from a nearby park when I went to play yesterday. Today I saw the news and matched the lottery number, luckily for me the two of them matched and we got two jackpots. These two should be enough for us to go by for 10 years,” I then gave a very convincing story that I came up with and seeing their faces they bought it.

“Dear what we should do, these lotteries aren’t ours and this money is too much for our small family and it might cause us problems,” Said Mother expressing her worry.

“Dad, Mom, why don’t we move into the city then buy a house with half of the money and using the other half of the money, we can have our own business. I have several recipes here I downloaded from the internet from that pro chef who acts on those TV shows,” seeing my parents worrying about something unnecessary. I gave them my suggestion and used I just look at their eyes with the expectation showing on my face to convince them. My innocent-looking expecting face was able to sway them a little so after a bit of bickering with each other, I convince them.

“If you don’t believe in those recipes then I will prepare the dinner tonight with those recipes so both of you can appraise it yourself and mother, please help me to prepare it,” I thought letting them taste it themselves, which will be more convincing so I ask help from mother to prepare according to recipes as I can’t simply start preparing food like a chef so I can only ask for mother’s help. Even though I know how to prepare the food but I can’t just show them outright as that will make my parent ask a lot of unnecessary questions to avoid that I can only show slowly so they won’t ask much and get used to my presence in the kitchen.

Then in the evening with the help of my mother, we made a lot of things and I specially prepare a unique mix of sauce and ketchup to add extra taste to the food to make it special.

I had my mother fetch the things that we needed like fresh tomatoes, sugar, vinegar, various spices etc. from the nearby marketplace.

Don’t confuse ketchup and sauce they are prepared different most of the time.

Ketchup is made with tomatoes, sugar, vinegar/acetic acid and spices. Whereas, tomato sauce is made from tomatoes, oil, meat or vegetable stock and spices. It never uses vinegar. ... To make it simpler, ketchup is made with a variety of spices while the sauce is generally made without spices.

.....

“We ended up making a lot and you both make sure to use the ketchup and sauce that I prepared to add a unique taste, it’s secret to make the food more tasty and appetizing,” I reminded my parents as we are done so I and mother set up the table then we also sat down to eat.

There are different foods like Vegan Tofu Katsu, Niku-Dango, Yakisoba, Okonomi and some sweet dessert.

Before we started to eat, we prayed like always, for one hand I grabbed the plate of yakisoba for myself then added a little bit of sauce and in half added ketchup to taste how both felt on the same dish. I have to say it is super tasty in both and they have their little differences which I can pick up easily as I forgot that I have mastery over culinary. It was in the kitchen that I remembered how to correct or where to add, it doesn’t matter how little it is.

“Ohh..wow, it tastes wonderful and amazing, how is this made, honey you never cooked this delicious and tasty,” Father having been intoxicated by food unconsciously blurted out whatever came to mind not seeing the mother who has a blissful expression darken listening to father about her food being compared.

“Mr. what did you say about my food is not tasty and good, I didn’t hear it correctly. Can you repeat it for me,” once Father heard mother call him Mr., he knew for sure he somehow pissed her then there was only one option and that was to praise her until she is calm down.

“Honey, who said something like that l, I was just saying that with these recipes the food made by your hands will taste more heavenly..,” listening to Father’s eloquence way of speaking, I thought that I have a lot of things to learn from my old man. See just from a few words he made the mother silent and in a few minutes, made the smile blossom on her face.

Seeing the atmosphere development, I had to hurry up and eat my portion of food in a few minutes then I slipped away to my room and let them have some alone time with each other.

.......

[Master, I found the community with a good environment and no crime area, they also have little artificial hills and a garden with the park where old people can be seen exercising and moving around most of the time. I also found a property which has good sceneries and places around it and it is also situated on a small artificial hill.]

Right after I came to my room and relax on the bed a little, Aashi informed me of good news then I ask her to send me details about the property on my Megatron which also has advanced holographic technology so here I am reading the information in transparent screen in front of me even having lights on the room but I can see everything on the screen.

The property looks good in the photos I am seeing. It is a two-story building with a little yard in the front and a garage for parking vehicles. All in all, it’s good, at least this house is much better than the house I am currently living.

Oh before that I need to ask Aashi If the materials got here or not.

‘Aashi what about the materials.’

[Master, they will arrive tomorrow and I have rented the warehouse in **** street in from of lamp post and Sutter is yellow colour painted on it, also ****201 written on it.]

‘Thanks for hard work as always, I will be sure to give you a surprise soon so be ready.’ Once the materials reach the warehouse, I have to get there undetected and keep those materials in inventory for a while, in two days we will settle on the new place then I work on the plan.

Thinking like that I got in a meditation position and forgot about the outside world. Then a few hours later I stop my meditation and slept soundly.

.......

In the morning, once I am done with my workout and mediation, I went to the kitchen to help out my mother a little.

Then we have our breakfast and father got ready to go to the workplace to quit his job and say farewell to his colleagues there. As yesterday mother has a proper talk with father about it.

A few months later the enrollment of Martial Fantasia Academy starts. Its name supernatural Academy started mainly to control other world’s returnees and teach them not to use their powers for the crime.

I also have made thorough preparation and solid identity as other world returnees with the status as a cultivator.

As Aashi has checked the forum which is mainly accessed or used by supernatural people as it needed an identity and it has many functions for people to enjoy because of it, The Forum ‘Naturalism’ is very popular. I have found many interesting things such as the cultivators have special privileges and the rule of the jungle is more prominent inside and all the things are decided by battles.

There is also a list of people who are no.1 to 100 according to battle powers.

I only search it because I was bored and at least I remember the top 10 names when I go there, this might be useful but looking here at the names, the girls are dominating over the boys.

The days won’t be as boring with those young masters around to keep it productive.

Well anyway, after a whole day of packing and setting everything then saying their farewell to neighbours. I helped my Father in buying the property and completing the paper works online and transferring it as lottery reward money has finalised before my father who went straight after quitting his job.

Then today we booked a vehicle to load our things and then directly went to our new home where my parents and I will live in the future. I also made some adjustments and added some safety Archrunes so I will have peace of mind even then I am thinking of gifting them necklaces to the mother and watching to father with defensive and healing Archrunes on those.

It took us one and a half hours to reach the community and a few minutes more from the entrance gate to our house.

Then we unloaded all our stuff from the vehicle and stored them in an empty room, after that we had something to eat then rested for a while then unpacked our stuff.

In this two-story house, the first floor has a dining room attached with medium size kitchen and a single bedroom with a toilet and bathroom attached to it. The small living room where we put our sofa set and place for TV.

On the second floor, there are just rooms, a total of four rooms so I took the best one out of them which has a window with a small balcony and good scenery.

Then I took my things and set them up in the room, my room is very simple like one bed which has been installed in the house for free then there’s a small bookshelf to keep my books, a table and chair then a beautifully designed wood trunk to keep my clothes nice and tidy.

Anyway, I am tired today so I sleep for while. I told Aashi to alert me when the dinner is ready and my mother called for me.

Then I slept on the new bedsheets which are fluffy and comfortable to sleep on.
