-3 days later.-
I find myself in the kitchen, it's my turn to make lunch, and my cooking skills seem to be guiding me to make cookies for some reason. I guess it'll be a good side dessert.
[Advanced Cooking(Master) You are able to instinctively know how to make the best meal for someone else. You know the best recipe for everything. Your cooking makes people permanently stronger depending on the meal. You are close to becoming a grandmaster at the art of advanced cooking.]
I shrug, and continue mixing the batter with one hand and continue to scoring the Danger beast meat, with a torch in the other hand.
"Hey Tatsumi whats the difference between a monster and a danger beast?" I ask the guy next to me.
He nods, "Danger beasts are the monsters that are too tough for normal people to handle. The lowest level danger beast is rank nine. going down words from nine through one an then S, SS, and SSS. The weakest danger beast is called the rookie killer. It's pretty weak though, I honestly don't get why it even is in the category of a rank nine danger beast."
He then continues what he was doing which was...
I glance over, and he's still prepping the potatoes for frying.
Amateur. But I basically cheated for all these skills, so I can't blame him that much.
"Did you just insult my cooking in your mind?!" he stares at me.
"No," I lie as easily as I breathe.
He shrugs and goes back to cutting the potatoes.

I enter the kitchen with food for everyone, Sheele comes in, trips on her sock and then falls into my arms just as I'm done setting the table. "woah, You alright there?" i ask, and her face immediately turns scarlet red at our proximity. She pushes me away, and I flip outside through the door and into the yard.
"Ow." I say, rubbing my bruised back of my head.
After I come back in, Akame has already eaten my serving and is rubbing her stomach in satisfaction.
"Wow, I've never seen her get full from just two servings." Leone says, a bit stunned.
I then deadpan at my empty bowl.

-That very night.-
"The next mission is to ambush the serial killer, Zenk the executioner of death, on the road. Intelligence states that he's moving from the Belzerg Colonial Zone into the main Empire territory, we must stop him before he reaches any city or it will be hard to find him again. He's been using his military card to become insanely strong, so, we're sending in the whole team. Serial killers are known for being incredibly powerful once they get a hold of a military or adventurer card, we mustn't allow him to continue slaughtering innocents."
Sheele's eyes harden for a moment and she says, "Even I know that Zenk is incredibly powerful, are you sure we're ready for this?" she asks, a finger on her chin, I look at Tatsumi and see him tense and sweating. I look around at everyone with incredibly serious eyes.
I raise my hand, risking looking like an idiot. "Who is Zenk and why does he make everyone here look like they're about to piss themselves? Well, Except Bulat, he just looks seriously tense." I ask, wondering how canon changed so much.
"Yes, I forgot you aren't originally from this world." she nods and then continues.
"Zenk is a powerful executioner with a fivefold evolved class. No one knows what his class is but he can be considered as strong as a demon general. He's executed 1000's and only once he went mad with power and became insane in a true sense, did he leave the military. No one realized a clerical error allowed him to get a military card before it was too late. Now executioners are forbidden from getting any sort of card, be it adventurer or military. Killing that many people causes instability in the mind and one to become too powerful too fast." She takes a breath.
She then speaks again. "Yunyun, Tatsumi, Lubbock, you're staying here. the three of you are not strong enough yet to even stall Zenk for a moment."
"HEY! Why do I have to stay here when the even newer guy gets to go and fight?!" Tatsumi asks indignantly.
"Because he's basically a living cheat. He has the experience of 20 of you while going on half the missions." She says, sounding irritated.
I take off my left gauntlet and start fiddling with my adventurer status. "I've held this off since the last mission, But I think i should evolve my class." I nod, and then select the option.
[Spirit enforcer has evolved.]
[Class options]
[Spirit-cultivator(Easy Unique).]
[Body-cultivator(Easy Unique)]
[Soul-Cultivator(Easy Unique)]
[Body, spirit, and soul, cultivator. (Legendary Unique)]
[Immortality Cultivator of the 5 elements(Phantasmal-Mythic-Unique.]
I examine the last one and am surprised by how overpowered it is.
I check it for drawbacks and find none.
I pick it.
Immediately I feel my 9 Pillars become 10, a brown core forms from my dantian, and then shatters and forms again, stronger and with a red color.
My power rises by 20x in all stats. I suddenly gain 1000 skill points and then breathe in deeply.
"Wow that's a rush." I look around and see everyone staring at me in silence.
"What?" I ask.
I grin, having an idea, "Hey guys, want me to share my cultivation ability with you guys? I think it'd help us a lot."
Everyone's eyes widen and I Immediately do so.
