Late at night, the stars were like dreams.
Embedded within Shinjuku Imperial Garden, the 'Zen Residence' saw a figure leisurely vaulting over the not-so-tall wooden fence, crossing the forest, and strolling hands-behind-back around the bank of Yuzao Pond.
The winter breeze blew head-on, yet Xia Yu felt not a trace of the chill; on the contrary, his heart was ablaze with warmth.

He suddenly stopped at a viewing pavilion, gazing at the glittering water of the pond and the koi occasionally surfacing, Xia Yu wore a smile, "System, this counts as my own understanding of Food Ethos, right?"
"Host has comprehended Food Ethos, which can greatly enhance the flavor of ingredients, amplifying and doubling their effects. Please name this Food Ethos!" The system's mechanical voice rang out, and to Xia Yu, it sounded incredibly pleasant—as if in a good mood, every scene turned beautiful.
"Hmm, naming it…"
He pondered, muttering to himself.
"How about 'Magnifying Glass'?"
