In Tuna Waves restaurant.

After seeing her talent, Nicole was given the role of innovating the dishes by the head chef. She worked for the entire day and prepared seven dishes and made the chefs taste.

What Nicole didn’t know was that this was a test. If she were to get approved by more than half the chefs, then she’d be promoted from an intern to a chef.

When the chefs tasted her seven dishes, some of them raised complaints that most of these dishes were not weather-friendly or customer-friendly and so on.

Nicole didn’t keep all these things in her mind. So, she asked them to give her one more chance before they even gave her the result.

The seven dishes she made were definitely good, but most of them had too much spice, which would scare many customers away, and that wouldn’t do good business. These dishes were perfect for home but not for hotels.

The head chef told her she could come tomorrow and try again.

Nicole, however, said it was alright and worked for four more hours to prep

    “You can sit,” the chairman’s wife, Jessica, told Nicole while she got lost in thought.“I-It’s okay, ma’am.” Nicole couldn’t stand still because working like this was new for her. Nicole could see from Jessica’s figure that she was probably five to six months pregnant.The little girl, Nora, came over to Nicole and took her to the nearest chair. Now, Nicole had no other option but to obey the little girl, which made Russell and Jessica chuckle a little. Nora went back to her parents and expressed her wish to eat the dish. They stopped the nail-polishing in the middle for their daughter’s sake and together fed their daughter by taking turns. Nora kept chewing and storing the meat in her cheeks instead of swallowing, which was her habit. Jessica poked the swollen cheeks, which automatically made Nora swallow. Nora then began to put food in her parents’ mouths. After tasting the dish, they briefly looked at each other and then shifted their gazes to Nicole.“Who made this?” Jessica aske

    Bart was someone with a wicked sense of humor, but he couldn’t express himself well ever since he had taken a beating from Gabe.When Draco asked Bart to help him get his stolen mobile back, Bart replied with a question. “Do I look like I’m free enough to deal with the matters of the children?”Draco then had no choice but to come to his mother and tell her what happened.Carrie, having gotten used to the costly mobile, was shocked to hear this news. “Why the hell did you take the mobile to school?” she started beating Draco left and right until he cried. “You don’t even know who stole it, so who am I supposed to ask? Your teacher?”Draco went crying to the rooftop, where he was surprised to see Gabe sleeping on a mat.“Why are you sleeping on the floor?” Draco asked him.“Sleeping outside like this is a luxury in itself,” Gabe was staring at the star-studded sky.“Luxury? This?” Draco could only shake his head. He came and sat next to Gabe and also looked up at the sky, but then sudd

    After ten o’clock in the night, Gabe saw Mia’s car entering the street and climbed down from the rooftop using the pipe fixed to the wall and quickly came over to the outside gate.Mia parked the car outside the house as usual and stopped by the gate.“Where were you until now?” Gabe asked. “Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you?”“My car broke down, and I was getting it repaired,” she answered. “That’s why it took me this long.”“Couldn’t you at least call me once and tell me what's going on?” Gabe didn’t raise his voice, but she could sense a hint of anger and worry in his voice.This was something Mia hadn’t experienced in a long time. Nobody in the family really questioned her regarding when she was entering or leaving the house.“What’s the point of carrying a mobile if you don’t call your family and tell them you’re going to come late?”Gabe kept on talking, putting his hand on the gate, not even letting Mia inside. “Next time, remember that there are people waiting for

    In Mia’s house.Gabe went to Draco’s room and had to knock on the door many times to get the door opened.Before Gabe said anything, Draco quickly touched Gabe’s shirt and said, “Uncle, I will give you the phone tomorrow.”“You have school tomorrow, so…” Gabe put his hand forward.Twisting his mouth in many directions, Draco reluctantly gave the mobile back.“Don’t you have your own mobile?” Gabe asked, startling the kid. “I saw you playing with it before.”“U-Uh, that…” Draco didn’t know what to say and ended up saying what had actually happened. “I just lost it today.”“What?” Gabe was shocked. “Lost it? Where?” How could he lose such an expensive mobile! Gabe got so angry he wanted to smack on top of his little head.“Actually, someone in my class stole it,” Draco pitifully explained. “I don’t even know who it is, so I don’t know what to do.”“Didn’t you tell your Mom about it?” Gabe angrily asked.“I did,” Draco’s mouth turned down. “But she beat me.”Gabe controlled his anger and

    Bart’s eyes popped out of his sockets as he couldn’t help but keep staring at the incredibly beautiful actresses, for they were irresistible. The actresses didn’t like the look on his face and glared at him, so he looked away.These two actresses were very famous and would charge at least a million dollars or over for a movie. How could they be sitting together with the mayor? At this point, he realized how much he underestimated the mayor’s influence.The actresses clearly didn’t like Bart’s presence, so they started dressing up. After telling the mayor to send the rest of the money to their accounts, they quickly left the room.“Don’t be too shocked,” Brendon lightly punched in Bart’s gut. “Politicians have always sought celebrities during weekends to release their stress or however you see it.” He threw a towel on his father’s crotch to cover the nudity. “Now, let’s talk business, shall we? My dad will give you the money he wants, but you’re going to have to do additional work for

    Gabe ran around the whole park, carrying Mia, for almost ten minutes, and many locals saw that.While not many in the neighborhood talked about it, there were some that had taken pictures and posted it on social media. And these pictures received a lot of positive comments, though there were a few who trolled it.Mia got angry at Gabe for carrying her like that, especially when she kept telling him to put her down, but then he touched his ears and did a hundred sit-ups as an apology. After that, Mia couldn’t scold him. She was not that heartless, but she made sure to tell him to never do such a thing, or she might lose it and slap him with her sandals.Gabe promised he wouldn’t do anything that would discomfort her, but he had already promised that he wouldn’t touch her without her permission. Still, he picked her up into his arms and ran all around the park even though she kept telling him to put her down as it was quite embarrassing.To cool Mia’s temper, Gabe bought blueberries at

    Draco entered the class without even taking the teacher’s permission. “I know the answer to your question, teacher.”The teacher didn’t like his tone, but she said, “Alright. Tell me the answer now. What’s a logarithm?”“It’s a mathematical function,” Draco quickly glanced down at the book in his hands before looking at the teacher again, “that tells you how dumb you really are.”“Hahaha!” almost all the students in the class started laughing very loudly.“It did tell everyone in the class how dumb you really are!” the teacher hissed. “Get out of the class!”“W-What?” Draco looked shocked. “Was my answer wrong?”The teacher didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Logarithm is the exponent to which a base must be raised to yield a given number. It’s that simple, and yet you started talking about mathematical functions when your syllabus didn’t even cover the functions yet. So how were you able to even bring up that phrase? Did you ask someone after leaving the class? Or did you check the

    While Gabe had gone to the school to deal with the lost mobile, his lambo was still parked in the alley not far from his home.Systa didn’t allow Gabe to drive the car, either, so he had no choice but to walk to the school.A random kid came to Mia’s house and told Mia that some children were peeing on the luxury car.Bertha and others told Mia to bring the car to the house. Mia didn’t have the keys, so she went to Gabe’s house. The house wasn’t locked, even though nobody was inside. She entered and looked for keys. Luckily, she found them under the pillow.“He won’t mind if I park the car in front of his house, or will he?” she wondered.In the end, she went to the alley where the car was parked. She couldn’t tell where the children peed, but she saw that the mark that Cynthia left on the car was gone. “He got it fixed, huh. He’s managing the car decently, but high-class cars like these need to look clean, or they look striking.”She pressed a button and the door opened.“Mia Reyes…”

    Gabe and Mia were falling down from miles high.Gabe’s legs were still wrapped around Mia’s waist, so their fall was rather awkward.“If we crash like this, both will get injured,” she quickly said.“I-I will do something,” Gabe resisted the urge to grab her cheeks and kiss her in midair, but he believed that this opportunity might not come again.So, he quickly went in for a kiss.Mia put her hand on his mouth. “This isn’t the time!”Just then, her eyes widened as she saw people jumping from the ship that was above them.“Shit. I think we’ve been spotted,” Mia nervously said. “We have to escape.”“Leave it to me,” Gabe smirked and then tightly hugged her.“What are you-” Before she could finish her sentence, Gabe turned into a streak of lightning and traveled through the sky in a zig-zag manner.Within seconds, he crossed tens of miles and landed on a tree top.All the twelve warriors were startled by the speed at which Gabe had traveled.Nevertheless, they used their flying boots to

    At a sea port.Gabe and Mia were hiding behind tall rocks at the shore and were observing the people shoot laser bullets at the sea beasts and then bring their bodies to the shore.They harvested crystals out of their bodies, which leaked out a strange but familiar energy.“I have never seen such creepy sea monsters, and what are those weapons?” Mia was a little nervous. “There are laser weapons in this world? I thought it was just fiction.”“They don’t just rely on weapons,” Gabe pointed. “Look over there.”A muscular old man with spiky hair punched a giant serpent monster and put a massive hole in its head.Mia’s eyes swelled out of the sockets. “H-He killed that monster from just the wind pressure emitted from his fist? He’s the real monster here!”“Yeah. He’s pretty strong,” Gabe opined. “I’m not sure if we can beat him even if we fight him together.”“But if we want to enter Syslon, we have to board their ship,” Mia said. “That’s what Ulmer said.”“I know, but can we sneak into h

    Gabriel Agnar stopped by a motel.Systa looked a bit dull.“Bring her tea,” Gabriel looked at Alleria who had a bandage wrapped around her head.Alleria frowned but didn’t complain.“To think this little girl is really the Alpha System,” Alleria was still finding it hard to believe. “But, Lord, just so you know, she didn’t beat me. She created a clone of hers and tricked me into fighting the clone.”“You still let her take the woman away, didn’t you?” Gabriel calmly said. “It was your loss. Doesn’t matter how it comes.”“Ugh…” Alleria couldn’t talk after that.She went to the motel owner and asked, “Give us some tea.”“We don’t sell tea here.”Alleria hit the thick wooden bench with her palm and left an imprint there.“I-I’ll get the tea ready in ten minutes,” the motel owner nervously said.“I’ll give you five minutes.”“I-It’s impossible to get it done in five minutes, ma’am.”“Go,” she coldly growled, and he ran to the neighboring convenience store to buy tea bags and milk.Meanwhi

    Gabriel grew much angrier after Gabe and Mia disappeared right before his eyes.He put more power into his fist and threw it at Ulmer who was under such pressure he was not able to move.A streak of red lightning flew into the scene and wrapped itself around Gabriel’s fist and stopped his fist in its tracks.“Mm?” Gabriel and Ulmer both looked to their side, where a red-haired woman was standing atop a nearly uprooted tree.She was giving off a ridiculous amount of energy.She looked like she was the embodiment of a million thunderbolts. She looked almost ethereal.“A wolfe clan’s girl?” Gabriel uttered.“The wolfe clan?” Ulmer seemed surprised. This was also his first time directly coming into contact with a person from the wolfe clan since he became the Urban God. “The strongest clan in the world… You came at the right time. Let’s together beat this old man up.”“Hmph,” the red-haired lady descended from the tree almost in a floating manner. “I didn’t come here to take sides. Both o

    Both Mia and Gabe were being pressured to hug the ground. Some kind of invisible force as heavy as many mountains was crushing them, making it feel as if their bones would turn to powder under pressure.Gabe gnashed his teeth and tried his best to resist. He was only able to barely move one of his fingers, though.This can’t be real.He thought he had become strong, strong enough to at least stand his ground at those who are at the top of the world.Even though Systa wasn’t with him right now, and even though he wasn’t at his full strength, how could he be toyed like this?How could he not be able to resist the head of the Agnar clan even a little?How can there be such a huge power difference?As he gave it his all to just try and get back, Willow didn’t wait for him.She went for the kill.“I’ll break your wife’s skull right before your eyes, boy!” She axed her foot down at Mia’s head.Mia wanted to move away, but she couldn’t, and she looked more frustrated than afraid that she was

    Gabe’s attack kept all the four squad leaders at bay as the electricity that washed through their bodies did not leave to the ground.Instead, it stayed in their bodies, trying to cook them alive.They had to resist the lightning energy with their ethereal energies.At the same time, Mia was able to push Willow back, though her leg suffered a deep cut in the process.Half of her bone was also cut, but she was healing at a fast pace.Regardless, Mia wasn’t worried about these opponents right now because the lightning energy of Gabe was also filling her body.However, it did not hurt her.But it made her feel stronger, and she began to feel Gabe’s presence all the more. Not just his presence, but all the things he had done in the past were popping in her mind.So many new memories poured into her mind.From the memories of his childhood to recent incidents, all the strong memories of his life played in her mind like a fast-moving dream.Some of these memories really squeezed her soul.S

    “This is the end, youngling,” Willow turned into ten thousand different clones which looked like a giant swarm of illusion moving toward Gabe. “Phantom Dance!”All the figures of Willow attacked him in different styles all at once.It looked like Gabe’s entire body was burst to pieces.“It’s over already?” Fang snickered. “Heh, who gets to keep the omega system now?”“It’s not over,” Stark frowned. “Didn’t you see that flash of light?”“What flash?” Fang looked at Stark. “Did you see something that I didn’t?”Zephyr arrived where they were. “He used his lightning ability to move fast… so fast that my eyes also barely followed it.”“How the hell did he move that fast all of a sudden?” Fang frowned. “Where is he now?”Willow put her sword on her shoulder and looked down at the park miles below, a corner of her lips slightly curling up as she saw Gabe standing behind Mia now.“He released a burst of lightning at the last second. I thought he was defending himself, but he used it to pull

    Gabe could feel what happened to Mia, that she was sent flying down to the earth.He wanted to go and help her, but Stark and Fang kept him occupied.The narrow and precise attacks of Stark constantly targeting Gabe’s head were messing with his sense of distance.Fang also stayed closed and made sure to mess with Gabe’s timing by throwing attacks that unpredictably supported Stark.Clearly, they were seasoned fighters who didn’t put a single foot wrong.Even Gabe, who wasn’t much of an experienced fighter, could tell that these two had fought each other and together many times before.Otherwise, such perfect coordination might not be possible.“If I can’t overpower them with technique, I have to do it through other means…” Gabe leaked electricity into the cloud, which reflected it back at Stark and Fang, forcing them to fend off from these sudden attacks.“He’s able to use not just the ground but also the clouds to his advantage,” Fang harrumphed. “How annoying.

    More than two decades ago.“I understand about the alpha system, but why does the Patriarch want to find the luna system, too?” Zephyr was asking his squad commander at the time who was his own aunt.“He wanted to give it to his wife or his daughter, maybe?” Zephyr’s aunt said while smoking from a pipe.“Why?”“Haha, why you ask? Because it’s known to be the best support system,” she laughed. “I don’t know much, either, but the luna system is said to be driven by the owner’s feelings more than any other system. So, it is one of those systems where anger, happiness, and even sadness can be turned into strength. They say it can cast perfect illusions that make dreams resemble reality.”“What? That’s pretty fucked up.”“Yeah, it is a fitting system for any queen, as it has the capability to keep the alpha in check when everyone else fails,” she opined. “That’s why it’s a coveted system, but unfortunately, our clan never got hold of it.
