"This..." Leo felt a bit of disbelief after seeing the black liquid. He really didn\'t expect it to turn out like this. At first, he was only thinking that maybe Elmont\'s vegetable soup has the same rule as his own Mana when infecting the Chaos Stone and turning the Chaos Mana inside into his own Chaos Mana. Turns out that it was actually completely different. 

Unlike his Mana, Elmont\'s vegetable soup would turn a dish it has infected into a useless but dangerous substance like this black liquid. 

Turning his head to look at the other bowl of Elmont\'s vegetable soup, Leo immediately realized something, "It seems like it would only turn into a black liquid once it reaches a certain degree,"

Elmont\'s vegetable soup inside the bowl was still the same as before, it didn\'t change into a black liquid substance just as what had happened to his vegetable soup. 

This easily proves his assumption that only when it has reaches a certain degree would it transform into a black liquid. As long as it doesn\'t happen, then Elmont\'s vegetable soup would most likely remain the same. 

Until how long? 

That would be something he still doesn\'t have any slightest idea about nor would he be able to know it that easily. 

Whoooosh!

While Leo was thinking about something while staring at Elmont\'s vegetable soup, a dream suddenly appeared in his mind. 

This dream was similar to the way he dreamed about the God of Fate when he was still a kid. Back then, such dreams were the God of Fate\'s way of communicating with him and the people around him. This was also how his parents were given that secret technique to see the different colors of the String of Fate.

When his older brother Reinhart unsealed his memories before, he had been expecting that the God of Fate would communicate with him again just like when he was still a kid. But to his disappointment, the God of Fate actually never communicated with him again.

Because of that, he didn\'t bother with it again as he thought that maybe the God of Fate doesn\'t have such capability anymore. After all, it has already been a decade or so when he had last heard from the God of Fate, not to mention his older brother Reinhart had also done something that should have highly likely offended the God of Fate. 

However, with this sudden dream in his consciousness right now, he finally found out just how mistaken he was. 

As for why the God of Fate had only communicated with him again this time, he really doesn\'t have a clue about that yet. Fortunately, he could ask the God of Fate about that once there is an opportunity.

Inside his consciousness, the time when the God of Fate created everything to save the inhabitants of the Celestial World appeared.

It was the same dream that was repeatedly shown to him back then when he was still a kid, which was a scene that had happened after the defeat of the God of Fate in his fight against the other Gods of the Celestial World.

A man with a face covered in smoke wave his hands as he muttered to himself, "Gluttony,"

Whoooosh!

As soon as that word left the God of Fate\'s mouth, Leo was instantly jolted awake from the dream. 

"Gluttony..." Leo finally understood why Elmont\'s vegetable soup has become like this, "I really didn\'t expect that Elmont is actually a Special Mage. And on top of that, the holder of one of the seven deadly sins as well!"

Just like his dreams when he was still a kid, it was the God of Fate himself that had created the Special Mages, specifically Mages who possessed a unique capability that other Mages don\'t possess. 

Each unique capability is rank differently. 

Some are rank as common, which are those unique capabilities that are possessed by a certain number of Special Mages. 

Some are rank as uncommon, which are those unique capabilities that are only possessed by a few Special Mages. Such example of this would be Barbara the Perfect Disguise\'s unique capability. 

And so on and so forth. 

Simply put, the strength of the unique capabilities depends entirely on how many people possessed them.

As for the unique capability called seven deadly sins, it is one of the rarest unique capabilities. They are basically the type of unique capabilities that only has one holder.

The seven deadly sins, just like its name implies, are made up of seven different types of unique capabilities, specifically pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath, and sloth. 

As for the Gluttony that Elmont possesses, it is the type of unique capability that affects Mana inside any Magical resources that can be eaten, like for example food, which is what had happened to Elmont\'s vegetable soup. 

The Special Mage who possess the Gluttony unique capability would eat everything inside the food and transfer it into one\'s own, thus benefiting them in all sorts of ways. Although everyone could practically do this by simply eating a dish cooked by chefs or drinking potions concocted by Alchemist, but Gluttony could conveniently absorb all of those things just like how the Fate Cube he possesses could easily absorb the Mana inside any Magical resources. 

As long as one has Magical resources that could be eaten, then they could absorb everything inside of it even without consuming it.

Just what does this imply? 

Well, it simply means that one would never ever have a problem related to Mana ever again as long as they have plenty of Magical resources inside of their Storage Rings. In other words, they have a method to have an inexhaustible source of Mana.

This kind of unique capability is so helpful, especially during battle as one would be able to refill their Stars much quicker compared to just the Stars absorbing the Mana from the surrounding. 

What\'s even better is, the unique capability Gluttony would become more powerful as the Special Mage become more powerful.

There are also a lot more other creative or practical uses for Gluttony that one would be able to make use of to achieve all sorts of different things. It is entirely up to the holder, which in this case is Elmont, on how he would use the unique capability of Gluttony.

The disadvantage though, is that whoever possesses the unique capability Gluttony would need to be very mindful of their maximum Mana capacity whenever consuming Magical resources or else they would risk themselves exploding and getting their cultivation crippled as there would sometimes be chances that their body won\'t be able to take everything. Also, their cultivation speed would be very slow because all of the Magical resources that they have consumed would be divided into many different portions, including their body, their Magic spells, their Stars, their Magic Power, their consciousness, and last but not the least, the unique capability Gluttony. 

He finally understood why Elmont is a battle maniac. This behavior of his is certainly because he needs an outlet for his Mana and to prevent accidentally crippling himself due to having a lot of excess Mana inside his body. And the main reason for this is obviously because he still doesn\'t have any slightest bit of clue that he is actually a Special Mage who possessed the unique capability of Gluttony.

But honestly, such a problem caused by Gluttony is actually nothing compared to his. Whenever he consumes Magical resources, he is as if feeding a bottomless pit. However much he consumes, it only causes a bit of improvement to his cultivation. 

As of this present point of time, he had already consumed Fate knows just how many Magical resources, maybe ten thousand or so, or worst, close to fifty thousand, just to reach his current cultivation level of Intermediate 1 Star Mage.

"What an unexpected discovery," Leo said to himself. No wonder Elmont is considered as one of his allies by the Fate Cube, it is simply because he is a Special Mage. On the second thought though, he suddenly wanted to know why exactly the Evergreen royal family still didn\'t discover Elmont being a Special Mage. 

Is it because it is too difficult to notice the unique capability of Gluttony? Or is it because someone is trying to suppress the information? 

The former is highly likely the case for Elmont, because in fact, if only he wasn\'t so suspicious about how exactly did a person cook something inedible like Elmont\'s vegetable soup, he would definitely not discover that Elmont is actually a Special Mage. Even a burnt egg or meat can still be eaten, not to mention a dish using a mix of different kinds of vegetables. As long as one doesn\'t deliberately add a bottle of poison or toxic in the dish, it would at most only taste bad, not inedible like what Elmont had cooked.

Though, there is also an equal amount of chances that it is actually the latter. 

Whatever it is though, he would definitely invite Elmont to join the Mischievous Lion Guild to the best of his ability. Even organizations like the Sword and Magic organization and the Elves Secret organization would fight over for a chance to get a Special Mage, let alone the Mischievous Lion Guild. 

Additionally, he has the best opportunity to recruit Elmont right now since no other people seem to know about him being a Special Mage yet aside from him. So, he would definitely not waste this chance.

After reaching a conclusion in his investigation and forming a plan inside his mind, Leo immediately destroyed everything so as to not let anyone know about it. 

Once he was done with it, he then quickly remove the suit he\'s wearing and put it on the top of the chair nearby him. Then, he folded both sleeves covering his arms as he then began checking for all the ingredients inside the kitchen. As soon as he finally thought of a dish to cook, he then swiftly begin cooking.

Obviously, now that he knew about what Angel wanted him to do for her, he would definitely give it to her now that he has the time to do so.
