Chapter 238 Egglicious
Sylvara’s laugh stopped. She suddenly realized she couldn’t stand to see her bargain-bin husband on the screen anymore. All she could see was a tree. He had tilted the camera so it pointed straight at it.
Her voice dropped real low, sweet, and nervous, like a kid caught doing something wrong. “I was going to cook a full egg feast for you, but I kind of mixed up the gg General Kenobia gave me with the other eggs.
“Honey, I didn’t mean to. Really. I was sorting the eggs, and they got mixed up. Who knew they all looked exactly the same? I searched forever and still couldn’t find it.”
Her soft, sticky-sweet voice sounded so wronged, like she might burst into tears if he said one more harsh word.
Agares stared at the screen. His ears were bright red, his face was burning, but his voice stayed steady and serious. “Switch the video to wide view. I need to see all the eggs on the table.”
“Oh!” Sylvara answered quickly and did what he said. She switched to a full view, showing all 201 black spread across the table.
Agares’s eyes studied the screen for a long moment before he spoke. “On your left, second row, eighteent egg. That’s the one you showed me before.”
No way.
Seriously?
“You’re sure?” Sylvara asked, unsure.
Agares’s voice came low and firm, leaving no room to question him. “I am sure. On your left, second row, 18th egg. Pick it up and look closely. It’s darker and rounder than all the others.”
Really?
Sylvara counted along her left side, found the second row, and then the 18th egg. She picked it up. It warmed in her hand. The shell was smooth like polished stone.
She compared it with the others. The color was deeper. And it really was more round.
A darker, rounder black egg. What in the world could something like this even hatch into?
Forget it. The thing supposedly had no life inside anyway. It probably wouldn’t hatch anything at all. Finding it at all was already something to celebrate.
Sylvara kissed the egg with a loud smack, then said sweetly to Agares. “Thanks, honey. I won’t keep you from training. Bye!”
Agares stared quietly at the dark screen.
Smack!
She slapped the egg. “You little Eggy! I called you, and you didn’t even respond. I had to work so hard to find you! Today I’m going to show you how rough the world can be. Hmph! I’ll show you all eighteen ways an egg can be cooked!”
After speaking, Sylvara grabbed the white marker she had used earlier to draw a fake mole on her hand. She

wrote few words on the black egg. “Eggy!”
Then she found a bowl, placed the little black egg inside and sent a message to a Starnet moderator saying she would go live in ten minutes.
Next, she pulled smoked meat, bacon, fresh unseasoned cuts, and all kinds of mushrooms she had gathered during military training from her spatial button.
By the time she set everything up, ten minutes had passed.
She started the livestream. The moment the stream we live, countless Starnet users flooded in. [Boss, you’re finally back! You’ve been gone a month. I finally understand what it means to wait forever.]
[Boss, please look at me! And please tell your Level-7 Plant Healer good friend to grow more fruit.]
[Boss, is your Level-7 Plant Healer friend actually Malcolm Noll?]
[Is the smoked meat in the shop made by Level-7 Plant Healer herself?]
Sylvara, as always, showed only her hands on camera. Reading the barrage of questions, she said, “I mis you all too. I feel like I haven’t went on livestream forever.”
“As for the smoked meat, yes, the recipe and cooking method were taught to me by the Level-7 Plant Heal Whether it has any healing energy in it, well, that’s up to you to decide.
