Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife



Esong and his men were in charge of protecting the central area of the capital and at the moment, it was all but quiet. The previous night they had fought off some lightning wolves which made it through the boundaries. Any mutated beast that had any weather related abilities could not be stopped by shields or boundaries. Therefore any mutated beast that exuded fire, water, lightning, wind and the like could not be stopped. Even those that could barrel into the ground were not stopped by shields. At the moment, Esong and Ian were sitting in the headquarters of the mecha warrior offices and he was watching Scarlet's live broadcast.

He sent many gifts hoping to be the lucky recipient of the creamy noodle soup she had just prepared. It was not that he was guilty of dereliction of his duty but the moments when nothing was happening were filled with boredom and these were many. Apart from patrolling the empty streets, there was not much else to do.

"Huh," Ian sighed heavily for the third time, "I want to go home, and I don't mean my home here in the capital but home on the blue star. Look at the governor's noodle soup; if we were there I would be assured of getting a taste. She always sent food to us you know."

"I know." Esong responded. He leaned back in his seat and crossed his legs as he watched his small family of three. His son was stuffing his face with the creamy noodle soup and it was smeared all over his face. He looked like a cat which was licking milk off a saucer greedily.

On the screen, it was looking like Scarlet was going to cook something else.

"Those are the new sweet potatoes which she is promoting, right?" Ian looked closer at the screen and observed. "She said sweet potatoes and Irish potatoes are different which is definitely true. The sweet potatoes are not sweet at all."

"You stole one and bit into it while it was raw, expecting it to taste like a sugar cane. Next time, control your greed." Esong reminded his friend of the part he was excluding. Ian had snuck around like a thief, taking a big bite out of the new shipment of sweet potatoes and then he declared that they were contradictory to their name.

"I am the official taster of our division." Ian responded proudly.

Esong snorted and looked at the screen.

"So someone, a new friend of mine Mina complained about small sized Irish potatoes. She said that she never has any idea what to do with them since they break apart easily if boiled with the big ones or easily get burnt when you attempt to fry them I have thought of a way to cook small potatoes aside from using them in mashed potatoes."

[Woohoo!!! Potato lovers assemble here please.]

[Please be another kind of fries, munchy or crispy yum yum yum.]

[I know it's bad to waste food but I have been separating them from the big ones when I buy. I am happy that there is a way to cook them.]

"This recipe is quite simple and quick, so take your clean small sized potatoes like this and boil them until they are tender. Do not remove the peeling; simply boil them as they are."

Assistant chef Justin nodded, "Mmm as they are." He parroted.

[Boohoo why is our assistant chef so cute? please teach us baby chef we are taking notes.]

[I think chef Scarlet has been dethroned by Chef Justin.]

"I have my boiled potatoes here; I cooked them until they were fork tender. I also drained the water and put them in a bowl. " She touched the bowl with the small boiled potatoes and continued, "Now I am going to be adding a generous amount of oil, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, fresh thyme and basil. Get this all mixed together." She shook the bowl with her hands, "These are very soft so using something hard to mix them is very risky. After giving them a good mix, line them up on baking sheet. Make sure to spread them out and give them room on every side." 

She picked a glass and showed it to the cameras, "Our next step will be accomplished with the use of a glass which I am going to use to smash the potatoes about a half inch thick. Do not crush them into oblivion please; these are not your enemies. Just press them down like this and they will be ready to go into an oven of four hundred twenty five degrees. They are supposed to roast for thirty minutes, fifteen minutes on each side so flip them half way through."

Those went into the oven and from another oven; she brought out a tray of potatoes that she had prepared already. "This is what you are going to end up with," she touched one potato, the interior is soft but the exterior is crispy."

[But you did not take off the potato skin, can it be eaten?]

[They actually look and smell good; can we get a taste please?]

"Chef Justin," Scarlet held one of the potatoes to his lips and asked, "Will you do us this honor?"

[Chef Justin: Yes, I will fall on this sword for you mother.]

[Chef Justin with a serious look on his face right now, Hahaha, seriously, I can't.]

[Why does he look like he has been told to go to the front lines?]

[I Chef Justin accept this mission on behalf of all human kind, potato beast, I will destroy you.]

Scarlet was laughing as she held that potato in her hand, the viewers were on fire today.

In the end, assistant chef Justin took the first bite of the roasted potatoes and he greedily followed that up by eating five more before Scarlet stopped him. And to the great annoyance of some in the audience, Severus the gluttonous dog showed up and he got to eat a big bowl of roasted potatoes and a big serving of creamy noodle soup.

She cleaned away everything to do with roasted potatoes and Anna wiped the counter she was working from.

[Is there more?] 

[Are we getting another recipe?]

[My mother is already boiling small potatoes in our kitchen, we are going to feast well tonight, I will even watch your blue star movie channel.]

"Well, I have seen some of your questions and surprise," Scarlet spread her hands out "I am going to be cooking one last thing today. Not cooking but actually baking cookies, now so far I have baked oatmeal cookies, oatmeal raisin, chocolate chip and today I am adding Danish Butter cookies. This cookie recipe comes to us from ancient humans who were called the Danes and lived in Denmark. I do not know much of their history but I am grateful to them for their recipe. All the things I am cooking today are going to be sent to a special person. "

[Special person!!!!!]

[Please tell us more, we are begging for details.]

[Who is the special person, is it general Esong?]

[Everyone, look at that at, Silver wolf has sent a thousand flying cars. Something is going on between these two, I am reporting you to the general.]

[Are you having an affair?]

[I am begging somebody to unmask Silver wolf's identity please.]

"As always, thank you Silver wolf but do not forget that I am married, I will be accepting your money though.]

She would never reject free money in her life, not when the blue star had not even developed a quarter way. All of her money went into the planet; she did not even do personal shopping of any kind on the star net. All her shopping was done on the underworld forum.

Ian who knew that Esong was silver wolf looked at his friend and shook his head, and then he tapped Esong's shoulder and said, "You already married her buddy, stop competing with yourself."
