As I cooked the food using a variety of Cosmic Treasures, I took a peek at one of the Titles I had recently acquired.

-----

[Cosmic Cooking Apprentice: Lv2]

A Unique Title Skill granted to those who have begun their journey through the Path of the combination of the Cooking and Gourmet Daos, the Cosmic Cooking Arts. The Art of cooking is something most sentient beings have attained across the Cosmos, but only a few have evolved it to the level of cooking using the dangerous and powerful Cosmic Treasures as ingredients.

Through this technique, you can combine the refinement of Cosmic Energy in the ingredients, merging their components and transforming them into incredible dishes of all kinds, encompassing the flavors of the entire Cosmos, from countless worlds, galaxies, universes, and even dimensions.

You are only at the Apprentice Level right now, but the more you cook Cosmic Dishes, eat them or make others consume them, while creating a positive response, the farther your growth as a Cosmic Chef will progress.

Increases the Quality, Flavor, Enhancement Ability, Cosmic Energy Richness, and Ingredient Fusion Rate by +250%, with an additional +25% with each Skill Level. Grants the natural ability to easily discern which Cosmic Treasures can become the perfect and most ideal ingredients for any Cosmic Dish.

I see! An interesting Skill makes sense now that it changes how I cook and the like.

POOF!

Suddenly, as I was cooking and my family was chatting and having a good time, a little greedy demon that has been ignoring me for a while appeared by my side. It was Mammon, who turned into his humanoid form from his ring appearance.

"Hey, Kireina…"

"Mammon? I thought you were busy doing whatever you were doing."

"C-Come on now, don't look at me like that…"

"How am I looking at you?"

"Your eyes are way too sharp! I'm sorry, okay? I was just lazing around a bit. I am tired and handling a few things in Hell."

"Hmph. I thought you were going to give me some of your time now, but it seems I am not as important as Hell, huh?"

"Y-You are! Hey, don't get so jealous now!"

"Is that so…"

"Ugh…"

His ring has remained with me, which contains a large part of his own soul and existence and is directly connected to his true body back in Hell. The thing is, after I arrived here, I've been summoning him for a while, but I get no response! He's supposed to be my Ego, yet he just left the ring?! I had no idea he could just do that. is it similar to a soul possessing an object? But now he's finally back apparently.

"Okay so tell me what happened then." I stared at my blankly as I piled up a large amount of pancakes. The sweet vanilla aroma of them was already making him drool.

"After you killed Satan and stopped all the demons from invading those Realms, Satan sent an attack towards my Realm out of nowhere. He seems to be extremely salty you not only stopped his Incarnation, but you also killed two of his strongest generals." He said.

"Strongest? Also I only killed one, the other was slain by Shadrach, Alice, and Alucard." I laughed. "But that does sounds quite terrible, I guess I can understand why you were completely ghosting me all this time. But let me tell you something, Mammon."

"Y-Yes…?" He stepped back as I glared down on his petite body, his cute face making a slightly panicked expression.

"We kissed, and we made it clear there was love between the two of us. I was eager to finally show you my love, yet you ignored me for three days. This is not something that you do, not to someone like me either." I stared at him. "Do you expect me to easily forgive you or something?"

"Aw, come on Kireina, I was trying to protect my place!" He complained.

"If you keep doubling down it will only get worse…" I said.

"Eep! Okay, I'm sorry! I'm sorryyyy…" He groaned angrily. The Archdemon of Greed was bowing his head before me. "Don't get mad please… Can you come help me in Hell?"

"So that's why you came back?! You didn't even come back to do some lovely stuff with me?!" I groaned. "Mammon, go fuck yourself."

"Aaaah! Kireina, please don't get mad… I love you! I-I really do love you…" He sighed, suddenly.

I looked back at him with a blank stare.

"And?"

"A-And I will do anything for you, you can ask me for anything… Really, I just… need your help right now. My forces are strong, but Satan's are even stronger. I am losing territory and Infernal Energy." He sighed. "Y-You're the only person I've ever felt this way towards. I would rather die than ask for help to someone else, but if its you, someone I love and trust… I am willing to lower myself to this point."

"Hoh~" I giggled. "Is that so~ Eehh?" I laughed even more.

"Y-Yes, its weird, I've never been in love before. And I always get jealous when you're kissing and hugging and even having sex with your wives…" He sighed. "I suppose that's love, right? I want you, even if only a piece of it… For myself."

"Aww, is that how an Archdemon of Greed confesses? That's honestly adorable! I do like you too, Mammon. But I don't know if at that level… yet." I sighed, adjusting my long hair into a ponytail so it wouldn't get in the way of my cooking. Somehow that made Mammon blush a bit, he really did love me, huh?

"Yet? So you can… We can get together?" He wondered hopefully.

"Only if you redeem yourself, ask for forgiveness while being prostrated in front of me for an hour, give me the ownership of at least half of your Domain, and of ninety percent of everything I earn from defeat Satan's army." I said.

"A-Ahh?! HALF?!" He groaned in shock. "T-That's…!"

"Didn't you said you loved me, Mammon? Sometimes, for love, you must forfeit your material possessions." I smiled teasingly.

"I wonder sometimes who the real demon between is the two of us…" He gave a loud sigh. "Okay."

He quickly prostrated himself over the ground and started saying "I'm sorry" constantly.

"Good, go on. One hour."
