The conversation with Wanda and Pietro made Noah reconsider his plans again. Since it's confirmed from their description that their origin was the same as MCU, he doesn't have to worry too much about the possibility of things blowing up to world class disaster for quite some time.
*glurg,glurg*
While Noah was thinking, the water in the iron pot warmed up, interrupting his's thoughts. He regained his senses and stopped thinking about world disaster for the time being, 'let's get the meal ready first.'
For now Noah was too excited to think about other things, since he would eat a proper meal after so much time. Dividing half of the water into another iron pot, he waited for it to cool down. The rest started boiling some ingredients in another pot. Since he couldn't find any oil, he fried the pork first to get the lard out, then cut the meat with dagger from the base and asked the other children to soak the vegetables and the meat separately.
Due to limited fresh ingredient, he can't make any complex dish for now. So he simply used the plain dishes from his memory and stewed them thoroughly. Eggplants, tomatoes, potatoes, green peppers, corn, and a few simple seasonings, plus pork, stewed for half an hour to create a pot of plain stew. Then he used the remaining lard to fry a few large beef, lamb chops and soft breads to serve as a main course.
The aroma wafted throughout the room, making the hungry children who had not eaten meat for so long drool. Since they lack bowls and spoons to eat stew and meat, he ran outside and used his strength to break a tree that was not too thick. It took him a while to get fifteen bowls and spoons and a large spoon with a dagger.
His original house keeping knowledge is not that great, so the shape of the tableware were a bit abstract, but it can be used to eat for now without much trouble.
Noah instructed the children to move the clean wooden table to the middle of the room, then together they brought the iron pot containing stewed vegetables, chopped beef and mutton chops to the wooden table and served the soft breads to everyone.
These children enjoyed the aroma of today's 'breakfast' with bread. Interestingly, even though the children were hungry, they were not in a hurry to eat but collectively looked at Noah eagerly. The latter smiled helplessly, knowing the meaning behind the gesture and said gently: "Let's eat, you all should be starving."
Then he started eating first for their comfort. Only then did the children showed a smile and began to wolf down the food. The charm of stewing, plus fried beef mutton chops and bread for staple food, and broth, everything hit the numb taste buds of this group of children. And almost made them shed a tear or two, after they were brought to the base, all of them only had the nutrient solution distributed to eat.
The nutrient solution is rich in energy but the taste is extremely bland. So the meat with its smooth texture and the soft bread made the appetites of the kids satisfied. Even Noah himself was same. Like the autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, the food on the table, the stew in the pot including the soup were all eaten clean.
After eating, the children petted their belly and burped one after another. One can say that today was the warmest moment for these children in the past few years. In the snowstorm, sitting in a warm fireplace and eating delicious food with everyone made the children's heart clear up a lot.
After eating, these children were well-behaved and didn't wait for Noah's instruction and directly started to clean up the dishes. Even the oldest children wanted to go out to fetch water from the lake not far away from the house, obviously because they didn't want to waste clean water from base to clean the dishes. It's just that Noah was a little worried. After all, the ice around the lake has frozen over for a long time. Without him, these children would not be able to break the ice to get water, so he did it himself.
When they came back, these children heated the ice water a little and then washed the dishes. Noah didn't want to take care of everything like a nanny. He knew very well that these children were too insecure. During this period, these children were at their most vulnerable and confused stage. They were instinctively showing their worth and were afraid of being abandoned by Noah.
So he had to decide his future action soon, so he began to sort out his thoughts. He hadn't planned to abandon these children before anyway, now he was even more determined because of the Maximoff twins. To survive in this world filled with gods, demons everywhere, Noah knows exactly what he needs. Absolute strength.
The knowledge regarding world destroying events and villains out for blood is more of a curse then a blessing to him, making him feel insecure. In this world, if he wants to live freely without worrying about other aiming for his head, he needs to be strong enough to beat everyone coming after him. While at it he can even became a god, although it's too far away from his reach for now. His Nexus connection power is the foundation behind this thought.
While he can do it alone, he was tired of being alone, he was alone for most of his previous life, so this time he wants to make bonds with other as much as he can. And like the saying a army of ant can bring down a elephant, if they group together they can protect themselves more thoroughly. So he had to include the children and specially the twins in his future planning.
One of the twin is a powerful witch, capable of altering reality and probability using chaos magic and the other one is one of the fastest in the world. If they are properly trained from now on, their future strength will not be any less to their alternate selves in other universes, maybe even surpass them.
Like him, the other children also don't have anyone to call their own in this world anymore. So he can just make it so that, they can call each other family. From now since he's the one with power he have to protect them for now. Maybe he should try the Sharable power option. Noah muttered in his mind. 'Interface'

After seeing the interface, Noah decided to try his luck again. 'Nexus: Sharable power'
<How many Tokens will be debited?>
A interface popped up in front of him and Noah muttered "7"
<Exchange successful:
-Breathing methods from Demon Slayer(Modified)
-The ones selected by the host will be able to learn the breathing method. It's modified to create flame, water or mist etc in real life unlike demon slayer world.>
Feeling the huge amount of new memories in his mind, Noah's eyes flashed with joy, since he didn't expect to get the Breathing methods for the first time. This power is really suitable for the stating phase of his plans. Breathing methods is a general term for the techniques created by the strongest demon slayer Yoriichi Tsugikuni to fight against demons with a human body.
The main function of the Breathing method is to strengthen the cardiopulmonary function, so that the blood can absorb a large amount of oxygen in a short period of time, which can instantly increase the body's capability by a large amount and then temporarily possess the physical strengths equivalent to that of a demon.
This techniques will help Noah to develop the physical fitness of the children to surpass the limit of human athletes. Also since it was modified the techniques can create the elements upon use, which in itself is a power. So it's huge boon for Noah. When Muzan divided himself into 1800 pieces to escape from Yorichii who was at his peak, Yorichii still managed to reduce the number down to 300 in mere seconds, which makes the swinging speed unbelievable.
Now Noah has everything for the starting of his force, which will dominate the multiverse in the future. The Nutrient solution for energy intake, A body which potential is limitless due to the devil fruit and the Breathing methods for quick start. He was little excited for the future now.
