Chapter 619: Section 433: John Wick (2)
Malin, accompanied by Matilda and Rewo, returned home without any incidents; the Elemental Ebb, while causing some inconveniences, seemed to offer more conveniences—there were no different kinds around, and the Spirits were listless too. Opening the door and walking into the living room, Spotty and her children were sprawled in front of the fire, soaking up the warmth, and so was the reserve food, no doubt.
The little ones, upon hearing Malin’s footsteps, got up immediately and went to greet their master, while Mrs. Spotty gave Malin a glance before lying down again.
Malin went to the kitchen to start preparing lunch, and also to make food for Spotty’s family.
The three little ones followed Malin, then after a while, sat next to Rewo on the sofa in front of the fire to enjoy the warmth.
Having chopped up the meat, Malin filled a bowl with the food and placed it in front of the fire.
Mrs. Spotty did not move, while the three little ones couldn’t wait to jump off the sofa and gather around the bowl to start eating the meat.
"Next month, I’ll take you all to the new house," Malin said, stroking Mrs. Spotty’s head and scratching her chin, to which the lady purred contentedly.
"We’re back," said Clovis and Nova as they came through the door, both carrying backpacks filled with processed deer meat, while Maya held two bags of it. "Before we came back, we gave the deer’s offal and scrap meat to the Church’s soup kitchen, and we gave a whole deer to Lord Green— the kids should all have meat today."
"You’ve worked hard," Malin replied, taking their bags and backpack, and headed to the kitchen with them.
Nova followed suit.
"I always thought that a being like you shouldn’t possess such a skill as cooking," Malin remarked, as he took out the deer meat and pulled a chef’s knife from the kitchen counter rack. "How was the hunt today?"
