"Then may I?" Then his thumb brushed her lips, asking for a permission to touch it with his own.

"You don't need to ask."

~oOo~

"Hm, probably leave them like that a little bit." Outside of the room door, there was an elf that had seen everything.

Today, Rena decided to up early and make some real good breakfast for the gang. After all, they defeated Ran three months ago and haven't celebrated the victory yet, and she couldn't even remember when the last time she actually walked into the kitchen was. She was the chef of the gang; she cooked them all the meals, made them some really good foods, and celebrated every victory the gang achieved. But since the demons started their invasion, the gang always has to stay alarm, couldn't even put their guard down for a minute. All they had been eating was just breads and soups, rarely had a proper meal. And when they reached Hamel, they had people that takes care of their daily meal, might have a little improvement, but still didn't have time to eat much.

Now, everything is kind of peaceful a little bit, Rena could cook them a real deal meal. She could have told the people in the kitchen, but she wanted to get back to cooking. Although chefs in Hamel cook better food, but Rena knows the drill. She knows everything about the Elgang, especially Elsword, Aisha, Raven, Eve and Elesis, though not much about the rest. "Let see, Elsword, Elesis, Raven... Hm, Ara... with that body, probably Chung too. We have quite a few meat-eaters here." Rena mumbled with hand on the chin eyeing the amount of meat in the refrigerator. Beef, pork, chickens, fish, phorus, and more! With what she just saw from the fridge, totally a heaven of meats.

"Aisha... she would love some early beautify fruit... let's see what we have..." She closed the first door and go to the second one which was labeled "Daily" where you will definitely find a bunch of daily food. Milk, breads, cheese, cakes, ice cream and blah blah blah... "I'll take these." And the elf pulled out milk, yogurt, vanilla cream and frosting.

"Eve probably has her drone... some cakes might be ok." And the daily refrigerator closed with half of the amount of food gone.

"Last one is Add... I wonder... he should be a meat-eater, don't really think he would like sweet..." Rena looks through her pile of food, then eyes the other five fridges with each of them label differently. Add is the hardest among them all, due to the fact that he is an insane scientist, and sometimes she sees him passed by with a chocolate bar on his mouth, she can't really think of what he would like to eat. Maybe some coffee, "But he did not stay up late last night." Maybe chocolate, "Not really sure..."

~oOo~

"Morning whoever is in the kitchen." Elsword lazily walking down the stairs, hand rubbing his left eyes and scratching his head. Then hand goes down to covering his mouth for a big long yawn, then a stretch before sitting down and staring on the empty table.

"Morning Elsword, long time no see you up early." A voice greeted him from upstairs. Rena just went up and started to pull people out of their sleep, it's seven o'clock anyway which is actually late for them compared to the time that they used to wake up. And by the mean of early, Rena actually means that he was the first one to up, excluded her, without any loud noise.

"Morning Rena and Elsword. And I believe you cooked breakfast today, Rena." Raven, who looks pretty neat for someone who just woke up, sits down and turns his view to the counter to see nine dishes of food. Judging by the style of the decorations, it's obviously Rena. She would be the only one to put different types of flowers on the dishes. She usually talks about them, talks about how the flowers resemble the gang, talks about the meaning of them and talks about how those flowers used to step into her life. Raven remembered everything, from the very first time he got a lily up till when the El Gang was still in Feita.

Tithonian divers folia this time for me? I wonder. Raven looks at the small yellow flower on the dish. Sometimes, he hears Rena complaining about how rare is the Tithonian divers folia, and how stupid when people don't even know the important of nature. Trashes, smoke, pollution, and all the bad things that happen to the nature. She blamed everything on the human, kind of hurt his feeling actually, if you know what I mean. But he put up with it, he would careless since he is not one of those who usually litters and gets lectured every time, especially... Elsword... and Elesis. Now, on the dish which obviously is his with his favorite food, Tithonian divers folia lie out and show itself to the world.

"Can I eat now?" Elsword complained, this snapped Raven out of his little thought. He was really deep in it without realizing 30 minutes had passed, and that had led to a complaining Elsword.

"No, wait for others."

"But Raven is here!"

"Elsword!"

"Fine."

Rena scolded, Elsword shut up. Everyone know for sure never make the elf angry, it was like hell becomes real. Last time when she was angry, she was literally disappeared and made the gang looked for her for 5 days straight. And even after that, she made the gang stayed hungry for another week. The cause was Elsword, being a brat that threw a rock at her head and made her head bleed.

"Raven, can you call the others for me, I still have some cooking to do." She asked. Raven nodded and walked away. "And Elsword, try not to be involved in a fight with Aisha, we have two special guests today." The elf reminded the stubborn red head who looks so bored that could even make you bored just by looking at him. Last time, when Ara first joined, him and Aisha's fight was so loud that that they scared the Xia, who believed she was the cause of the fight and hid behind the elf until the breakfast was finished, Ara even tried to avoid the two. And they also had a fight when Add first time joined lunch, which ended up him leaving the food untouched and just like 'Fuck this, I'm done'.

"You make me sound like I'm a troublemaker."

"Apparently, you are."

~oOo~

"Elesis, wake up." Raven knocked on the door once.

"Five... minutes." And she sleepily replied back.

"Elsword had woken up before you." He tried again.

"I... don't care..."

"Rena cooked breakfast." He folded his arm on his chest, and tapping his left foot patiently. There was a small pause, a loud long audible sigh before a heavy dash to door.

"Ok, I'm up." Elesis opened the door instantly, though she is still in her pajama, she just runs straight down stairs. And again, right before Raven had a chance to turn his heel to the next room, Elesis ran back up. She said Rena made she has to get change or no food will be served. "She sounds like a mother, I like it."

~oOo~

"Oh, I was about to call you."

"No need, I have my drone Raven. But thank you for the escort to Chung's room."

"You are welcome."

Raven headed to Eve's room but instead, met her right outside her door. She woke up early, with her drones as an alarm, which woke her up by sneaking up at her every morning. She said that it's the best way to wake up because it feels like Add is in her room, trying to steal her code so she would goes full battle mode whenever she woke up. The best way to train to keep you guard up 24/7. Raven sweat dropped at the queen's explanation, he agreed that is the best way to train but it is just... foolish.

~oOo~

SLAP

"Ouch, what the h– Oh morning, Eve."

"Chung, I was disappointed about having to wake you up by slapping you hard on the face." Code Nemesis elegantly stated as she giving him a mirror to show how hard she slapped him.

"You didn't have to leave your hand on my face, dear. I know how your hands look like, and how beautiful they are." Chung holds the mirror and rubs his hand on the mark that the Queen 'accidentally' left on his left cheeks. You can even see the details of Eve's hand on his face, really realistic and red.

~oOo~

"Aisha? You're up?" Raven gently knocked on the magician's door. He is unaware that Aisha might be awake, or even she has already been at the table. The door is not locked, which it should be, and no one replied to the call. She is more mature than Elsword, and he just assumed that to walk away. He doesn't want to step into the Elemental Master's room; she is a growing girl any way, though her chest never says that.

~oOo~

I don't have a good feeling about this.

Right now, Raven is standing in front of Ara's door. For some reason, his sixth sense tells him not to wake Ara up. It was yelling in his head: "GO AWAY FROM THE DOOR OR YOU WILL RUIN THE MOMENT." And he face, in reply, is dumbfounded. The he notices there is a crack on the door, very small but enough to peek in so he looks. The scene in front of his face makes him froze, and his mouth formed an 'o'

I should have listened to my sixth scene. Goddamnit.

~oOo~

"Where is Ara and Add, Raven?" Was the first question that his ears received when Raven arrived back to the table. All the members have gathered, dressing nicely and waiting patiently for their food.

There is Elesis, the former captain of the Red Knights, who is acting like a child dreaming about sweets.

Sitting next to her is Elsword, who with his head laying on the right fist that is supporting his cheek, also waiting for his dish.

Next to him is Aisha, Raven was right, she is at the table, reading a book about magic judging by the cover.

An empty seat is what comes next, but usually that would be Rena's seat and Raven would be sitting across her.

Chung is currently acting like Elsword; at least he doesn't look that bored, more like lacking of energy. Raven also notices a hand mark that looks so real on his left cheek, probably Eve again.

Then there is Eve, sipping her tea looking at some ancient nasod documents.

"So where is Ara and Add, Raven?" Rena came out from the back of the counter asking him. He doesn't know what to answer. He can't just tell them about what he saw; he will ruin Elsword, Aisha and Chung innocent, maybe even Eve!! What do I do?! What do I do?!

"Well, go look by yourself." Elesis eyed him suspiciously, Raven barely acted like that.

"Ok, I'll go." Elsword stood up.

"I'll go with you." Then Elesis followed.

~oOo~

"Oh." Elsword dragged his 'oh' till infinity.

"Oh my." Elesis covered her mouth and her brother's eyes.

"What are you– Oh...?" Aisha somehow appeared there, then teleport away.

"I heard Aisha– Oh..." Chung walked up and peeked inside. The scene made his 'oh' trailed off.

"Can you guys stop– Oops... oh my, sorry for interrupting. Just go on; just go on, I'll drag these idiots away." Because of the time that had passed by, the Wind Sneaker had to go up to drag the bunch down, but then accidentally opened Ara's door to relieve that 'scene'. Before anybody could even open their mouth to breath, they had already at the table.

~oOo~

"Damn it Eun, how long will you keep pranking me?" A shirtless angry Add replied, he is currently pinned down on the bed with Ara, in Eun mode, on top of him licking her lips like she is about to eat him.

"As many time as I want to Add, you are fun to play with." She giggled then poof back to Ara.

"We will have some explanation to do during breakfast." Add sighed then lifted Ara up to free from the weight on his belly. No, don't get him wrong, she is not heavy and his abs is totally fine with it, it was just hard to breath.

"Sorry Add, Eun is just like that."

~oOo~

Lame I know just put up with it please :3 So I give a little bit of spotlight for Raven and Rena in this chapter and mostly random stuffs. And about the tithonia diversifolia, to be honest, I know nothing about it •~•, except for a fact that it's a flower, so I did some research. *cry* I'm such a failure author.
