Chapter 2 Sister and Brother
Allen Panthers, whose family runs a tavern.
His father was a winemaker and his mother was the best cook in town.
My sister would also come to the pub to help after school.
Kelly Panthers, one year older than her brother Alan.
Her fair oval face was dotted with a few playful freckles, her eyes were big and bright, and her flaxen hair was tied into a long braid.
A tall and plump figure may not fit the public's general impression of a "beautiful girl".
But in Allen's eyes, his sister was undoubtedly the most beautiful and strongest girl on the street.
Since childhood, Kelly has used her fists to discipline Allen, but outside, if anyone dares to bully her brother, Kelly will definitely beat the person until he cries!
Alan went downstairs and came to the dining room.
My parents were still busy in the pub up front, so my sister Kelly prepared dinner.
Kelly’s cooking skills are pretty good, not much worse than my mom’s.
Alan was sitting at the dining table. Just as he smelled the aroma of food, he received a series of system prompts.
Didi——
Discover common ingredients:
Rye bread!
Pork sausage!
onion!
cottage cheese!
Cream of mushroom soup!
Caramel pudding!
It turns out that you can identify ingredients by touching and smelling them without actually eating them.
The system's built-in food atlas will automatically record the food that Allen has come into contact with and identify its nutrients and toxicity.
Kelly sat across the table and picked up the fried sausages from her plate and put them on her brother's plate.
"Boys should eat more meat so they can grow tall and strong!"
"You eat meat too." Alan said to his sister.
Kelly smiled and shook her head: "I feel sorry for you and can't bear to eat the meat, so I'll leave it all for you."
"Do you think I'll be touched?" Alan sneered, "What you said is so hypocritical!"
The family income is not bad, and as someone working in the catering industry, we always have meat to eat.
Kelly glared at her brother, but ended up laughing first.
"Kelly, are you losing weight?" Alan asked tentatively.
According to the measurement standards before the time travel, Kelly was about 1.75 meters tall and weighed nearly 120 kilograms.
Now my body lines seem quite well-proportioned, with a unique tall and healthy beauty. But if I don't control myself, it will be difficult to maintain my figure after I have children in the future.
"Well! I ate too much meat and my figure has gone out of shape... Damn it! I want to wear a beautiful corset dress to the graduation prom!"
"If you really want to lose weight, you have to start by cutting back on sweets, like caramel pudding."
Alan's kind reminder was met with nothing but a big eye roll.
"What do you know! Women have two stomachs, one of which is specifically for dessert!"
"Well, say goodbye to your tunic."
"Huh?! You little brat, try saying something sarcastic again?"
Kelly punched her brother.
Alan quickly shrank his head and changed the subject to a safer one.
"Kelly, did you also take the blood awakening test last week?"
"I wasn't interested at first, but Lunafi asked me to go with her for the test."
"I heard that if you detect extraordinary bloodline, you will have the chance to awaken and become a warlock. Have you detected any special bloodline?"
" It's just the ogre bloodline passed down from our ancestors! Unfortunately, it's too thin. The concentration of blood tested is only 3%. It's of low quality and doesn't have much future!"
Kelly replied glumly.
Perhaps influenced by her ogre bloodline, Kelly had extraordinary strength since childhood. Her body developed very early, and her heavy chest looked as if she was holding two melons.
The boys in school called her "Miss Cow" behind her back, but they didn't dare say it to her face, otherwise they would be beaten to a pulp by her!
When examining a person's talent as a warlock, the higher the concentration of the special bloodline, the better. If it is lower than 1%, there is almost no possibility of awakening.
"What if the blood concentration reaches 5%?" Alan asked his sister.
"That's not bad, it's considered a standard medium qualification."
For humans, the concentration of supernatural bloodline is 1-3%, which is considered to be of inferior quality.
4-6%, medium qualifications.
7～9%, superior qualifications.
Usually no more than 10%.
Otherwise, non-human features can be seen from the appearance, and strictly speaking, they are no longer real humans.
"I may also have ogre blood, and the concentration is not low." Alan said to his sister calmly.
"That's not surprising. After all, you've been a glutton since you were a child... But anyway, even if your blood concentration is higher than mine, there's nothing to be happy about."
Kelly hit her brother mercilessly.
"Warlock bloodlines also have different levels, and ogre bloodlines can only be ranked lower!"
"The growth of mental strength is too poor, it is difficult to comprehend spells!"
"To put it bluntly, he's just a greedy strongman, not a true warlock!"
"As a lady, I don't want such barbaric and vulgar blood!"
"Lady..." Alan was surprised, "Sister, how could you have such an illusion?"
BANG!!
Kelly punched her brother in the head.
Alan felt as if he had been hit on the head with a club. He suddenly saw stars and touched his forehead, and found a swollen bump.
"I'm not as idle as you. I still have to help in the kitchen after dinner!" Kelly pushed the plate away, turned around and left angrily.
Alan touched his stomach and seemed not to be full yet, so he ate all the remaining food from his sister.
Looking at the two empty plates, Alan felt something was wrong.
After eating two nutritious and filling dinners, I didn’t seem to feel full, I just wasn’t hungry.
Putting this doubt aside for the moment, Alan walked into the kitchen next door.
Kelly is busy.
The Panthers' tavern is just an ordinary mom-and-pop shop.
My dad is a bartender and mixologist, managing the store business.
My mother is the chef in the kitchen and is proficient in frying, baking and deep-frying.
There was originally a young girl helping in the kitchen in the store, who was responsible for chores like picking vegetables and washing dishes.
Not long ago, something happened at the girl's family and she quit her job.
The store couldn't hire a suitable kitchen helper at the moment, so Kelly came to help out during her spare time.
Alan also comes to help occasionally.
Unfortunately, his mother and sister always disliked him for being clumsy.
Alan carried the dinner plate to the kitchen and washed it.
Before traveling through time, he was studying abroad. If he wanted to eat hometown food that was tasty and inexpensive, he had to buy groceries and cook them himself.
Over time, I developed the skills of washing pots and dishes, and cleaning the house.
Kelly was sorting mushrooms. She looked up at her brother and praised him with a smile, "Not bad! Not bad! You're working very efficiently. You've made progress!"
Alan wiped his hands and saw his sister pick out a mushroom from a pile of mushrooms and throw it into the wooden basin beside her. He couldn't help but feel moved.
"Kelly, are the mushrooms you picked out poisonous?"
"Well! Tiger Amanita, it looks very ordinary, but it's actually inedible!" Kelly picked up a mushroom and showed it to her brother.
"What will happen if I eat it?"
"I haven't eaten it, but I heard it can cause hallucinations and make people see a lot of weird things, just like being drunk."
Alan nodded and asked his sister nonchalantly, "What should we do with these poisonous mushrooms? Feed them to the pigs?"
"Idiot! Even pigs will be poisoned if they eat them!" Kelly rolled her eyes at her brother. "You can only throw them away and pray that homeless people don't dig them out of the trash can and eat them!"
"I understand." Alan picked up the basin and turned to walk towards the trash can.
With my back to my sister , I pretended to pour the poisonous mushrooms into the trash can.
While Kelly wasn't paying attention, he secretly kept two and put them in his pocket.
Kelly picked up a bowl of washed mushrooms and brought it to her mother at the stove.
Alan returned to the restaurant alone, took out a poisonous mushroom from his pocket and smelled it carefully.
Just as I was hesitating whether to take a sip, the system gave me the identification result:
"Found a common ingredient, Tiger Amanita!"
"Rich in nutrients, has hallucinogenic effects (Level 1 toxin)."
Alan checked the food atlas that came with the system and found the entry for "tiger amanita" indeed.
Holding the poisonous mushroom, he remembered that the system had once given him a reminder that by eating poisonous substances, he could accumulate poison resistance and eventually increase his poison resistance level.
I already have level 1 poison resistance, so theoretically I won't be poisoned if I eat a level 1 poison like the tiger Amanita, right?
Out of curiosity, Alan took a bite of the poisonous mushroom.
Sure enough, there was no feeling of discomfort at all.
The experience bar representing the accumulated level of poison resistance has increased slightly, but it is still far from reaching level 2 poison resistance.
Alan simply stuffed both poisonous mushrooms into his mouth.
The result disappointed him.
The poison resistance bar didn't move at all!
"It seems that only the first consumption of the same poison can improve the poison resistance."
Alan pondered and came to a conclusion.
