The Goddess, Please Devour the Evil Deity!

In the Enigmatic Abyss, within the small cottage of the Lily Garden.
A family of four, plus a small pink pet, had already gathered in the cottage's dining room.

Miss Bai Lianyue, dressed in a white apron, was currently holding a dinner plate, standing excitedly in front of the dining table, her emerald eyes filled with anticipation.
"Come on, try it~"
Miss Bai Lianyue urged with a cheerful smile.

Clearly,
After spending a whole morning preparing a lavish meal, Bai Lianyue was eager to see the children enjoy the 'delicious' food and was already looking forward to their praises.
Hehe, after eating canned food for so many days in the Enigmatic Abyss,

Seeing such a feast today, they must be happy, right? They must be eager to start enjoying it, right?
Miss Earth Evil God naively judged in her heart.
However,

Reality was a bit different from what she expected.
Because after Aeria brought the twins to the table, the three little ones showed no sign of picking up their chopsticks, instead staring uniformly at the "delicacies" on the table.
With varying expressions.

How to put it?
These were indeed the "works of heart" specially prepared by Bai Lianyue for them.
However, the food looked exceptionally bizarre—a pile of strangely colored dishes together, each emitting a frightening aura. A dark object lay quietly in the center of a plate, continuously emitting black smoke as if just scooped out of lava; a fish glowing with eerie luminescence was arranged in a strange arc, its eyes bulging as if lamenting its fate; even a bowl of soup colored like a swamp, with indeterminate lumps floating on top, emitted a strange and inscrutable odor…

To put it in high EQ terms: the food looked a bit unique.
In low EQ terms: Is this even edible??
...

For their mother's cooking, the twins were actually full of anticipation. After all, this was the first time they were tasting food personally made by their mother from scratch.
Mother's milk was so fragrant, surely her cooking must be delicious too?
The little ones thought so.
But seeing these dishes, the twins hesitated.

Mia puffed up her cheeks, muttering under her breath, clearly afraid to dive in; Vya sneakily reached out to poke the luminescent fish, retracting her hand swiftly as if afraid it might come back to life.
Clearly, Mia and Vya were both too scared to start eating.
But not eating might hurt their mother's feelings.

As the saying goes, when in doubt, turn to your sister~
Thus,
Without a second word, the two little ones simultaneously turned their big watery eyes towards Aeria for help.

"Sister, you eat first~" Mia said with a smile.
"Mhm." Vya nodded in agreement.
"..."

You two?!?!
With that, Aeria couldn't help but frown and twitch her mouth.
But now, little Aeria didn't have time to scold these two cheeky little sisters, because as soon as the twins spoke, Miss Bai Lianyue turned her gaze towards Aeria.

The blue-haired girl stood with her hands on her hips, full of expectation, her eyes filled with confidence and satisfaction, as if she had no doubts about her cooking skills. She encouraged with a beaming smile:
"Try it! This is something I studied hard based on my past cooking experience and guidance from a cookbook~"
However, these words caused Aeria to break out in a cold sweat, and a complex silence suddenly filled the air.

Past experience?
Considering that after that big battle, the Earth Evil God had lost a lot of her memory.
Therefore, Aeria seriously doubted... whether she had even forgotten some basic cooking knowledge...

Of course, Aeria's suspicion was not unfounded, especially since last time she even forgot how to bathe!
Moreover,
Guidance from a cookbook?

Those books from the Enigmatic Abyss, aren't they all those shoddy books with missing content? Can such books teach people how to cook?!?!
And also... hadn't her body lost its sense of taste?
With these thoughts,

Aeria was even more afraid to eat the food Bai Lianyue had prepared.
But...
Looking at the 'mom' in front of her, full of anticipation, Aeria couldn't help but clench her fists tighter, sweat continuously dripping from her forehead, as if calculating how to soothe her mother's "passion for cooking" without hurting her feelings.

Intuition told Aeria,
This thing definitely shouldn't be eaten...
Otherwise, she might end up visiting Teacher Bronnie.

But leaving without eating a single bite? That seemed disrespectful to the chef.
Recalling past etiquette lessons from Teacher Bronnie, Aeria felt increasingly conflicted. Her brain was racing, thinking of a way out.
And just then, Aeria's gaze fell on a certain pink octopus on the dining table, munching away at an apple.

At that moment,
A flash of inspiration struck the silver-haired girl.
Got it!

Next, Aeria turned her gaze to the fruit platter in front of her. Since the fruits hadn't undergone Bai Lianyue's processing, this plate of fruit looked remarkably normal amid the chaotic dining table.
"Little octopus, want an apple?"
Picking up a piece of apple, Aeria asked softly.

Hearing this,
The octopus munching on an apple slowly turned its body, curiously looking at the apple held up in front of it. Not knowing why Aeria suddenly fed it an apple, but seeing such shiny, translucent flesh, the pink octopus naturally wouldn't refuse.
"Ying ying~" (Yes, yes!!)

Unsuspectingly, Lingxi happily opened its mouth.
"Ah~"
"Opportunity!!"

Seeing such cooperation, a sly look flashed in Aeria's eyes.
Just then, fast as lightning, she quickly put down the apple, grabbed a spoon from beside her, and shoveled a big spoonful of Bai Lianyue’s “meticulously” prepared black aura dish into the wide mouth of the pink octopus.
The pink octopus paused for a moment, then instinctively chewed twice.

"Ying?" (Hm? This isn't the taste of apple?!)
Just as Lingxi realized what was happening, its entire body suddenly stiffened.
Its crimson eyes bulged, and its tentacles frantically waved around, as if electrocuted. A strange sound came from deep within its throat, a "woo woo" seemingly expressing pain, while black smoke billowed out of the pink octopus's mouth.

Seconds later,
The pink octopus stopped struggling, its movements suddenly halted, and its body stiffened, then flopped down on the table like a rag, tentacles dangling limply.
Its complexion changed from rosy to a weird gray-black, white foam bubbling from its mouth, emitting intermittent whimpers.

Eventually, the pink octopus completely stopped moving, lying there like a dead octopus.
Just one bite, and a familial beast was 'killed.'
Terrifying indeed...

In an instant,
The kitchen fell dead silent.
The twins, frightened, clung to Aeria's arms, one on the left and one on the right, while the initiator, Miss Bai Lianyue, after blinking blankly, also raised her hand to touch her cheek in confusion.

"Uh, huh?? How did this happen?"
After witnessing the destructive power of her own cooking, a look of embarrassment suddenly spread across the beautiful face of Miss Earth Evil God.
And at that moment, protecting her sisters and after a few seconds of silence, Aeria slowly spoke:

"Mom."
Her voice was incredibly serious, causing Bai Lianyue to shiver uncontrollably.
"What, what's wrong?"

"From now on, I'll do the cooking in this house!"
Saying this, the little girl seriously pointed her finger at Bai Lianyue's face:
"Mom, you are not allowed in the kitchen anymore!!"

"Eh?! Why like this..."
Bai Lianyue pouted, somewhat unhappy.
And seeing that the Earth Evil God was still unconvinced, Aeria promptly initiated a 'democratic vote'

"Those in favor of mom not entering the kitchen, raise your hand!!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Aeria didn't hesitate to raise her right hand.
The twins, after glancing at Bai Lianyue, also hesitantly raised their hands.

Not just the three sisters...
A certain pink octopus, previously wandering by the river of three paths, also shakily raised all eight of its tentacles at this moment...
...

The day after,
Miss Earth Evil God didn't enter the kitchen for several years... 'Mom' and 'dog' not allowed inside, these few big characters... just like that, they were nailed to the kitchen door.
