Bab 132: Reaching into backburner

Going back to normal life after a series of high-octane experiences filled me with nothing but apathy and exhaustion. 

I just didn't have any mental resilience left to face the challenges of the day. 

For now, however, I had nothing better to do but try to make the most out of my breakfast, or rather, of my dinner. 

When boiled down, this, in a way, was an essence of life. One aspect of it that was so mundane, hardly anyone paid it any attention. 

If I wanted to have energy, I actually had to eat energetic food. And ever since I became a cultivator, no matter just how much the villa's chefs tried, it just… 

It wasn't enough. 

Sure, the taste was insane for my peasant mouth, but the food somehow… was lacking.
