Whoooshhh whoosh.. As I looked out the window, I could see the chilling wind sweeping through the landscape. The trees swayed and creaked under the force of the wind, their branches reaching out as if to grasp onto something for warmth. I walked into the kitchen and noticed a bag of flour sitting on the countertop. The aroma of my mother's stew filled the air, making my stomach rumble.

Ethan: Hey Mom, can we try something different with the stew today?

Sarah: Ahh? Of course, Ethan! What did you have in mind?

I pointed on the countertop asked if I could use some of the flour. She looked at me with a smile and nodded, granting me permission. I rolled up my sleeves, ready to take on the challenge of making easy eastern noodles. I gathered the ingredients: flour, water, and a pinch of salt.

I poured the flour onto the board, creating a small mound in the center. I made a well in the middle and slowly added water, mixing it with my fingers to form a sticky dough. I kneaded the dough, feeling the texture transform under my hands. As I continued to work the dough, it became smoother and more elastic.The dough stretched and thinned, becoming a thin sheet. I sprinkled more flour to prevent sticking, ensuring the smoothness of each noodle. With a sharp knife, I carefully sliced the dough into thin strips, creating long, elegant strands of homemade noodles.

Ethan: Mom, could you please boil some water in the pot for me?

Sarah: Sure…

Mom filled the pot with water and placed it on the stove. As the flames danced beneath the pot, the water gradually began to heat up. I stood by, eagerly anticipating the moment when the water would reach a rolling boil.

I gently dropped the noodles in. They danced and swirled in the bubbling water, cooking to perfection. In just a few minutes, they rose to the surface, tender and al dente.I scooped the cooked noodles out of the pot and served them in a bowl. I decide to create noodles from eastern earth culture.

Travis: Slurping sounds Mmm, these... mmm slurrrrp good!

Sarah: Absolutely! The noodles soak up the rich flavors of the stew, making each bite even more satisfying.

Travis: Well, I have to say, this nuudels really take this stew to another level…

Ethan: Its noodle dad… The noodles are just an extra touch to enhance the overall taste.

Travis: It just hits the spot and warms you up from the inside out.

Outside the house, the wind grew colder and colder. It whistled through the trees. Inside the house, the atmosphere was cozy and warm. The crackling fireplace cast a gentle glow, spreading a comforting heat throughout the room. As I sat by the fireplace, the warmth enveloped me, chasing away the lingering chill from the outside.With a contented sigh, I looked around the room. Dad sat nearby, meticulously cleaning his hunting weapons, ensuring they were in perfect condition for the next hunting. The rhythmic sound of the brushes against the metal created a peaceful ambiance, adding to the serenity of the moment. Mom was busy with her sewing, her nimble fingers guiding the needle and thread through the fabric.

Dear Diary,

Hello! It's Ethan again, and today is a perfect day to sit down and write in my imaginary diary. As I continue to explore this fascinating fantasy land, I've discovered something truly exciting – the presence of magic stones in magic creation item!

In our humble home, we have a lamp created with a magic stone, which illuminates our evenings with a warm and comforting glow. It's truly magical to witness.

I've also heard rumors about a communication device in the local hall made from a several magic stone.

I can't help but wonder about possibilities of these magic stones.

Yours enchanted,

Ethan

Travis watched as Ethan peacefully slept near the warm fireplace, a gentle smile gracing his face.

Travis: I believe it's time we take Ethan to the local hall for his citizen registration.

Sarah: Oh..

Travis: Well, even though it's quite early... hmm but here's the thing... His creation item.

Sarah: What about it?

Travis: Mr. Quinto the peddler mentioned something interesting. He said that registering the creation items could increase its value and protect the creator.

Sarah: Oh... that something. Emmm (contemplating) Okay, let's go ahead and register Ethan and asked at the hall about his creation then.

Travis: What was Ethan's creation again? Should we bring all of them for registration?"

Sarah: I think it was the wood figure, hammock? And a couple of other things...aa the hairclips.

Sarah's eyes widened with surprise as Ethan presented her with the hairclips. The hairclips had intricate flower carvings, delicately painted in shades of yellow and blue. Sarah was touched by the thought and effort Ethan had put into creating such a beautiful gift. Travis took a bite, and a burst of flavors danced upon his palate. It was a creation of his son's culinary experiment, The golden-brown loaf of Bonbu cake. Who would have thought that a simple fruit like the Bonbu could be transformed into such a delightful treat? The combination of Bonbu and a variety of fruits and nuts had resulted in a bread that was both delicious and nourishing.

Travis: What about his food creations? Should we include those in the registration as well?

Sarah: Hmm.... He has been experimenting about food lately...

Sarah sat beside Travis, a knowing smile on her face as she shared the news with him. She explained that the owner of the inn and some of their neighbors had heard about the Bonbu cake and were curious about the recipe. They were intrigued by the unique combination of flavors.

Sarah: They loved the cake so much that they want to know how to make it hahaha

Sarah: Ethan think the Bonbu cake recipe is not quite complete yet.

Travis: What do you mean? It looks perfect to me.

Sarah: That’s what I told him. But he said there's a missing ingredient, something that will take it to the next level..

As Travis and Sarah gazed upon their peacefully sleeping son, Travis and Sarah found themselves scratching their heads, overwhelmed, and found themselves increasingly unable to predict Ethan's movements lately.

One day, they would find him diligently tending to the small garden near their house, carefully tending to the plants with a focused determination. On another day, they would discover Ethan engrossed in his woodworking projects, his small knife expertly shaping and carving pieces of wood into intricate designs. But what genuinely surprised Travis and Sarah the most was Ethan's newfound interest in cooking and trying out new recipes. Whenever he stumbled upon unique ingredients from the forest, his eyes would light up with excitement, and he would embark on a culinary journey in their own kitchen. Ethan came up with the idea to raise Bonbu trees, and with Liam's help, they successfully captured two small Bonbu trees. Travis and Ethan worked together to build a small pen for the Bonbu trees. They carefully constructed a sturdy enclosure using wood and mesh fencing to ensure the trees would be safely contained. With their combined efforts, the pen was completed, providing a secure space for the Bonbu trees to grow and thrive. The trees are now being raised in a small pen near the garden. Travis suggested raising just one tree, but Ethan insisted on having a pair to allow for breeding and future expansion of their Bonbu tree.

Travis: I must admit, I find it quite challenging to keep up with Ethan's ever-changing pursuits these days.

Sarah: I couldn't agree more, just when we think we have him figured out, he surprises us with a new project.

Sarah: How the Bonbu? Are they difficult to take care of?

Travis: He provides them with water every now and then. He prepares a bucket filled with water, adding in an old leaf and some forest soil sourced from the very place where the Bonbu trees were captured.

Besides tending to his garden, working with wood, and experimenting in the kitchen, Ethan has been really caught up with asking his mother about magic and magic stones. It's become a big topic of conversation for him, and he's been curious to learn more about how magic works. It's clear that he's fascinated by the idea of magic and wants to explore its secrets.
