NOVEL WEB Chapter 110: Ready To Eat Food
The bodyguards didn't question and evacuated the area. Once Ivy was assured they weren't nearby, she calmly stored all the solar equipment in the temporal storage.
After waiting for 10 minutes, she called back the boydguards and gave them 500g of rice each. At first, the bodyguards were confused and looked at Ivy with a frown.
"This is the delivery fees," Ivy explained patiently, feeling that the bodyguards were quite cute. They looked like clueless chickens when they looked at her just now.
"No. We can't take it." The bodyguards declined politely. However, they were touched by Ivy's kindness and couldn't help but praise her in their heart,
'She is truly a goddess. Her soul is equally beautiful as her external appearance. Ah… I wish to chase her.'
Unaware of the thought in their heart, Ivy calmly pushed back the rice packets and insisted, "I don't take back what I give away."
At last, under her constant, insistent, and cute threats, the bodyguards took the rice packets, but they didn't forget to thank her repeatedly. Their heart was moved and they felt grateful.

Ivy was speechless. Just the little act of repaying the favor in return gave her such a huge return. She earned 500KB just like that…
Taking a deep breath, she returned to the apartment and started to work out again. After taking a quick shower, her superpower was triggered, and this time she got medicines again.
Checking the inventory, Ivy realized that she had more than 15000 packs of fluoroquinolones and more than 20,000 packs of metronidazole.
She did like the feeling of hoarding; however, such a multitude of medicine created a headache for her.
Though it was concerning, it wasn't a pressing matter, and with solar panels and a solar cooker, Ivy decided to make food.
The sunlight was shining brightly on the balcony of Silas's top-floor apartment. The warm rays made it the perfect place to cook, and Ivy rolled up her sleeves with a grin.
With the solar panels working well and the solar cooker heating up fast, she was ready for a big cooking session.
First, she filled a giant pot with crystal-clear water from her storage. She boiled the water and added a handful of mineral salt and a pinch of black pepper. The air started to smell clean and fresh.
Ivy looked at her massive collection of fish and seafood. She smiled. "Let's make a fish feast!" she whispered.
She picked 5 fat sunfish and cleaned them up. Then she marinated them using garlic salt, a bit of smoked salt, black pepper, and a light touch of Persian blue salt.
After letting them sit, she placed them inside the solar oven, letting the heat slowly roast them until their skin turned golden and crispy.
Next, she grabbed some crayfish, about 200 of them. She threw them into boiling water with rock salt, pink pepper, and some lemon-like seasoning salt.
As they cooked, they turned bright red and gave off a mouth-watering smell. Ivy tossed them in garlic butter and let them rest on a platter.
She didn't stop there. Ivy chose trout and bass to make a mixed fish stew. She cut them into chunks and placed them in a pot with sea salt, red peppercorn, and a little sel gris for that fancy touch.
She added fresh water, then slowly boiled it while stirring in some rice flour to thicken the soup. It started bubbling with a rich aroma that filled the balcony.
For something chewy, Ivy decided to try turtle meat. She made turtle meatballs by grinding the meat and mixing it with almond flour, black pepper, and a pinch of Celtic salt.
She rolled them into small balls and pan-fried them on a solar skillet until they were crispy outside but soft inside.
Then came the rice dishes. Ivy opened her rice storage and picked different types. She cooked jasmine rice with flake salt and green pepper, which gave off a sweet and spicy smell.
She made sticky rice using glutinous rice, seasoning salt, and white pepper, perfect for pairing with the roasted sunfish.
She also tried something fun: sushi rice. Ivy mixed the cooked rice with flake salt and a little mineral water.
She sliced cooked crayfish and trout, placing them on top of little balls of the sushi rice. She smiled proudly at her tiny handmade sushi.
Not stopping there, Ivy baked some flatbread using plain flour, olive oil, seasoning salt, and smoked pepper.
She pressed them flat and cooked them on a hot pan, flipping them until golden brown. The smell of warm bread made her stomach rumble.
She finished by boiling a few frogs in flavored salt and red peppercorn water. She wasn't sure if she'd like it, but the spicy frog stew came out tasty and juicy.
After hours of cooking, Ivy looked at the spread on the table. Plates of grilled fish, crayfish, butter roast, fish stew, turtle meatballs, sticky rice, sushi, hot flatbread, and even frog stew sat before her. The smells mixed in the air and made her mouth water.
Taking a portion for herself and Silas, she quickly put the rest away in her Temporal Storage.
She sat on the balcony, took a deep breath, and began eating slowly. Each bite tasted better than the last.
After eating her dinner, she calmly checked the inventory. Even after working during the entire afternoon, she was able to finish making even 1/10 of her supplies.
But the amount of ready-to-eat food she had made was enough to let her not worry about food for the next month.
Patting her stomach with a satisfied expression, she took out some space crystals and started to absorb them.
Though she didn't know which crystal should be absorbed for her supplies picking superpower, she was sure that for her safe zone superpower, she needed to absorb the space or psychic crystals.
Her unique superpower allowed her to absorb the crystals of two different types.
