Even though Zoren could keep a straight face while eating Penny's cooking, he couldn't keep it up for long. He was sweating, and his complexion steadily paled, revealing his discomfort. However, Atlas was different.
Since Atlas had arrived very early, he was already eating by the time Penny called everyone for breakfast.
"Since today is a big day for everyone, I prepared this little breakfast to boost your strength and energy!" Penny announced cheerfully, gathering everyone around. "I'm sure you'll all be very busy today, so eat well!"
Atlas raised his brows, holding his fork as he noticed his plate was already half-finished. He glanced at everyone, squinting as he noticed their aghast expressions. They all stared at their plates with horror, reluctance evident in their eyes.
'Why are they looking at the food as if it were poison?'he wondered, unable to understand their reactions. 'The food is good, even for a picky eater like me.'
