?Doro looked at Lathel a little confused: “Soup? What’s that?”
Lathel glanced at everyone, then took out the cauldron and magnified it.
Cauldron said, annoyed: “Oy! Are you really using me to make soup for everyone here?”
“But do you think I have a cauldron as big as you?”
Cauldron: “…”
Cauldron sighed, feeling a bit tired, but it seemed he was used to this, so he didn’t feel too uncomfortable.
“God! This is the power of God.” Doro was startled and immediately knelt down. The others who saw this also bowed continuously.
“Praise the power of God…”
“Praise God’s miracles…”
Lathel: “…”
‘It seems like the people here have never seen magic.’ In his heart, he secretly thought: ‘Just normal magic will make them kneel and worship like this. If they saw high-level magic, what would they do?’
Lathel wondered, but he didn’t think much. At this time, he spoke up: “If you call me God, then… I will also consider you my followers.”
“If you are one of my followers, then I will not let you starve.”
After Lathel finished speaking, he took out countless cooking ingredients from the space gem. He also felt lucky because he had prepared a lot of food in advance.
Now, the food he had stored began to take effect. Even though its uses were extremely huge, they could save many people’s lives, which makes him feel happy.
“Wow! Fruit, meat—what about the others?”
“God! This is the power of God; quickly, kneel down.”
“God’s power. With just a wave of his hand, he created so much food, even meat.”
“God! I will forever praise your power, forever worship you, and forever be loyal to you.”
“Great, excellent, wonderful! Our God can really help us overcome hunger.”
“What the hell are you talking about? Our God is omnipotent; of course he can help us overcome hunger.”
“That’s right, but… it seems like God wants to put all the food in that big thing. What is that?”
“I don’t know; maybe it’s some kind of weapon.”
Everyone was talking loudly at this time, but Lathel didn’t pay attention to them; he just focused on doing what he needed to do.
Like usual, he started making soup; however, this time he needed to cook a large amount of soup, so he needed to prepare a lot of things.
Luckily, he has magic and can use magic to prepare cooking ingredients. Otherwise, he would have to spend a lot of time.
Even though he was only cooking for people who could be called ancient people who didn’t know what soup was, he still wanted to do everything properly.
This is the respect he has for them, as well as the trust and respect they have for him.
After preparing the ingredients, he poured water into the cauldron.
“God, this is God’s power.”
“Hahahaha… Our god can also create water, we don’t have to worry about drought anymore.”
“Yes, we have water to drink.”
“Great, excellent, wonderful.”
Hearing that, Lathel frowned. He realised that this group of people were much more backward than he thought.
You must know that drinking water is the first thing a person thinks of when trying to survive. But these people cannot even get drinking water, proving that they do not clearly understand water sources and finding clean water.
Besides, they also don’t seem to know how to grow crops and raise livestock. Lathel felt like they were like primitives; it was only that they didn’t have the shape of apes but the shape of humans.
‘So many problems exist; maybe I should solve them one by one. But… the biggest problem is, What does this challenge really require me to do?’
Lathel shook his head. He didn’t know what this challenge was or what he needed to do to overcome it. However, he also did not want to see these people who called him ‘God’ die in vain.
He waved his hand, and a red flame quickly covered the entire cauldron. Within just 10 seconds, the water inside begins to boil.
At this time, Lathel saw countless streams of energy of all kinds of colours inside the cauldron. This is the image he often sees when he cooks.
As usual, he began using his own magical energy to balance and fuse the energies within the cauldron.
At first, Lathel took a lot of time to do this, but after many attempts at cooking, he seemed to be able to fuse and control those energies easily.
Very quickly, the energy flow inside the cauldron reached an almost perfect balance. The energy streams of all kinds of colours had now turned into a single colour, brown.
A salivating fragrance emanated from inside the cauldron. Doro smelled the scent and immediately swallowed his saliva, his face filled with disbelief.
“Is that the scent of the gods?” So fragrant…” Doro muttered. This was the first time he had smelled such a fragrant scent.
It stimulated Doro’s stomach, which had been hungry for many days, causing him to salivate uncontrollably. The others were no different from Doro, and they looked at Cauldron hungrily, as if they would eat him too.
Lathel saw their expressions and felt both amusement and pity for them.
He started handing out soup to those poor people. Because there weren’t enough soup containers, Lathel had to use leaves.
However, that didn’t stop them from enjoying this wonderful soup. Everyone lined up neatly because they knew there was a god in front of them.
Besides… if they don’t stand in line and don’t get to eat the soup, I’m afraid they’ll regret it to death.
“God! This dish is so delicious.”
“Is this soup? Is the soup this good?”
“This is the food of the gods.”
“Thank God for letting me eat such delicious food.”
“Even if I die, I will feel satisfied.”
“From the moment I was born until now, this is probably the best food I have ever eaten.”
“Everyone, I feel my body is recovering.”
“Me too, my wound has stopped bleeding.”
“It’s so miraculous; I don’t feel tired anymore.”
Everyone immediately knelt down again, repeatedly bowing towards him. This time, they bowed to him with trust and without the slightest disrespect.
At this time, Lathel could see his worship points increasing dramatically, quickly reaching more than 12,000 points before stopping.
‘Ah! There are a lot of worship points, but I don’t know how to use them, it’s a waste.’
‘Looks like… I need to figure out how to use these points. After all, it is the energy thatgods use. If I can use it, it will definitely be of great help.’
“Okay, you guys eat quickly. Doro, come see me after eating, I want to talk to you for a bit.”
After Lathel finished speaking, he went to a tree and sat down. He began to think about what to do next and how to return to the real world.
“Cauldron, do you think this world is just an illusion?”
“Maybe not, or maybe it’s just like you think, it’s all just an illusion.” Cauldron said: “I have never seen any kind of magic that can send people back to the past. If this kind of magic exists, I’m afraid this world will be completely chaotic.”
Lathel nodded, feeling that Cauldron’s words were very reasonable. However, Lathel felt that this world is real because… His worship points increase, which means that those people really exist.
If it were an illusion, worship points would definitely not increase. This also means… he has really returned to the past.
Lathel sighed, not knowing what needed to be done to complete the challenge. He even worried that if he couldn’t do it, he would most likely be imprisoned in this place forever.
‘Not good! I need to find a way to complete this challenge as quickly as possible.’
While Lathel wasn’t paying attention, a stream of white energy spread out from inside his body and then merged into the tree he was sitting on.
The tree canopy moved slightly, as if the wind were blowing, so Lathel didn’t pay attention to it.
However, inside that tree, something seemed to be changing—
something making it more lush, making it seem to possess something that all living creatures possess.
A Soul.
“God…” Doro walked in front of Lathel, he was about three metres away from him. Then he knelt down, bowed his head close to the ground, and said respectfully: “Thank you for giving us food. This is the first time everyone can eat delicious food and help us restore our lives.”
“From now on, my entire tribe will be loyal to you forever, worshipping you, praising your name, and helping you win the most dazzling glory.”
“Okay, don’t talk too much.” Lathel sighed and said: “Now, answer my questions.”
“Yes.” Doro replied respectfully.
“First, how do you normally get food?”
“We go hunting.” Doro immediately explained earnestly: “The men hunt, while the women are in charge of reproduction and making hunting tools or fruit picking.”
“The elders impart experience to the children, and teach them how to fight.”
Hearing that, Lathel immediately thought of primitive tribes; this was the manifestation of the first human society being formed.
