Transmigrated as a Ghost

Chapter 993 993 Recovery and Celebration

It took several minutes for Fianna to eventually calm down and let go of Ashton.

"So, I really died there for a moment." Ashton said, a complicated look on his face. "I owe you two my deepest thanks. If you ever need us in the future, my party and I will be sure to repay the dept we owe you both." Fianna said to Marcus and Evette. She knew that without their assistance, both she and Ashton would be gone for good.

"We are all part of the same team. It is only natural that we help each other in any way possible." Evette replied.

"And speaking of helping, there are still others that could use healing. Why don't you both go and show your other party members that you are okay while Evette and I tend to everyone else." Marcus said.

He then left with Evette and the two of them used their magic to heal everyone else. It had been a tough battle that had nearly ended in tragedy, but they had achieved victory over the colossal robot without losing anyone.

Once Marcus had finished doing the rounds and using his healing magic on those that needed it, he returned to Mrazivý and Miguel who were sitting down and resting. Due to the backlash of Miguel's unique skill and using up most of the energy in their final attacks both of them were exhausted.

"No need to be worried about me. Just go ahead and use your Supreme Skill on Mrazivý." Miguel said before Marcus could say anything.

He could tell what Marcus was thinking from the conflicted expression he was wearing. Initially Marcus had planned to use his Ultimate Refresh on both of them, but after using it on himself twice, then on Fianna and Evette, he only had one last use of it for the day.

"This sluggishness is from my own ability, so it is only right that I tough it out. It's not that bad anyway, and if you recover my status I will be expected to do more today. I already had my hero moment and want to rest. I'm sure you would rather spend time with your wife than me." Miguel said, waving his hand dismissively.

Marcus wanted to argue with Miguel since he had given his word that he would treat Miguel just like is other companions.

Nevertheless, he could tell that Miguel meant what he had said and wouldn't hold it against Marcus.

With his last use of his Ultimate Refresh Marcus bathed Mrazivý in a silver light and the extreme fatigue her body had been feeling was gone in an instant.

"Ah. I feel much better now." Mrazivý said as she stretched her arms and stood up.

Now that they were among the few that were in good condition, Marcus and Mrazivý went around helping the others move. In case another threat appeared, they wanted to move away from where the robot's stronghold had stood before setting up camp.

It took a bit longer since only Marcus, Mrazivý, Evette, and Fianna were strong enough to do anything without staining their bodies. Everyone else was drained by the battle and would require a few days of rest before completely recovering.

"Fianna and I will keep watch. So, while we do that, if you two wouldn't mind making a hearty meal for everyone. I am sure that it would be much appreciated after the battle we just had." Evette said.

Nodding their heads, Marcus and Mrazivý agreed. A good meal would do wonders to raise everyone's spirits and restore their stamina quicker.

"Since Miguel contributed greatly to our victory, I figured I should make some dishes like those he would have had back on earth. I don't know if they will be exactly traditional since I don't have all the same ingredients, but I should be able to make things that are close. What do you think?" "I believe that is a good idea. The food might be a bit strange to everyone else, but everything you make is delicious so I don't think it will be a problem. I for one am looking forward to it." Mrazivý said, a gluttonous gleam in her eyes.

Seeing how enthusiastic she was, Marcus could not help but smile. After the deadly battle they had just come out of, it felt good to have a bit of fun and enjoy themselves.

From his item box Marcus brough out several large fridges, freezers, and pantries that stored the majority of his ingredients.

He then gave Mrazivý a list of items to grab and the two of them rapidly gathered what they would need.

'I'm not really sure what Miguel's favorites are, so I will just make a variety of dishes. I don't have much experience cooking most of these items, but I ate my fair share back on earth and should be able to let my high-level cooking skill help guide me towards the right flavors.' To start Marcus grabbed the ingredients he would need to make arroz rojo (Mexican Red Rice). He knew this was a staple and that the meal would be lacking without it.

After that he went a bit crazy and decided to prepare every Mexican dish he could think of.

Using his skills and high stats he easily did the work of a few hundred normal people and after several hours of work had enough tamales, empanadas, tostadas, queso, guacamole, chile verde, arroz rojo, pozole, and many other dishes that could feed at least eighty people.

When he and Mrazivý finally brought out the items that they had painstakingly created, almost everyone looked at the food with baffled expressions. They had never seen most of the dishes Marcus had made.

However, among them, there was one individual that knew what these dishes were and stared at them in shock.

Miguel had never expected to eat many of these things again. The young man that tried to maintain a cool façade at all times could not help but cry when he saw the food in front of him. Many of them evoked memories of home and a flood of emotions Miguel had been keeping at bay for several years burst forth.

"I understand that these dishes will be forging to most of you, but I can guarantee that they all taste good. Let us eat well and celebrate surviving another day on this hellish island. We emerged victorious aigast our greatest challenge yet, so let's feast and enjoy our victory."
