This is fabulous. I appreciate how humor, fantasy elements, and realistic practicality make this story feel so, real. Like there is no crazy op protagonist and the world seems well thought out so far. I hope this gets popular because it deserves it.
Ah Mia you just furthered your reputation of being an abnormal child and a witch by saying that last line. Now everyone will gossip about how you can hear stuff without being present or that you have colson spy for you.
I'm wondering how heavy is Mia's foundation on science. Electric wind and then plasma (sorry my physics and chemistry ain't that deep). Does everyone here knows how lightning strike works? with her wind magic, it's not that far i guess. But with her "E" rank, i guess she really need to work hard. But currently, I'm still more intrigued with the Book of Ice she got.
Author, please keep in mind your readers aren't exceedingly dumb. Basically every paragraph in this chapter is either repeating things you already told us, or making self-explanatory statements. The only actual new content of this entire chapter are the scant few paragraphs that tell(!) what she is doing and what the results are. And even that is only telling us, not showing. Please stop the repetition of information and read up on the "Show, don't tell" principle.
Her father will probably disown Mia if he hears of this particular cuisine! Oh, and what happened to the book obtained in the cave, is that something that Mia could learn ( ice?) after she's better at using wind?
Thanks for the chapter!!!! Lol. Isn't this indirectly telling them that she knows about their gossip? A dumb person will take her seriously, but the smarter servants will start sweating and shaking even if they are still skeptical about her behavior. Lol.....I would hate the be the main gossippers right now.
