That night, Moen stayed overnight at his new home in Laxus.
Although he kept telling Moen not to be presumptuous, it was indeed difficult for anyone other than Moen to stay in this guest room at the Laxus house. This was different from the guest room at the Mira house, where girls would occasionally stay.
The next morning, Moen left early to continue his daily training. When he finished training and returned to Laxus's house, Laxus had already finished his morning training and was preparing to go to the guild.
"Want to go to Mira's for breakfast together?"
With just a glance at the kitchen, Moen knew that Laxus hadn't eaten breakfast either, so he casually asked him about it.
"No, I'll go to the guild."
Laxus promptly refused. Although he would pass by Mira's house on his way to the guild, how could he possibly eat breakfast at someone else's house? Only Moen would do something like that.
"Alright, I'm leaving then."
Moen didn't insist. He hadn't expected Laxus to agree anyway. After leaving home, Moen ran straight to Mira's house.
Although he and Laxus had already finished their morning exercise, it was still early, and Mira's family was probably making breakfast.
That's normal. After all, not everyone can train like Moen. To see Magnolia at four in the morning every day requires talent. If an ordinary person trained like Moen, they would definitely ruin themselves in no time.
Laxus was only able to keep up with Moen's strength after becoming a "Dragon Slayer Mage"; his physical condition was not good before.
"This guy"
Watching Moen dash off in a flash, Laxus shook his head helplessly; he couldn't do anything about his younger brother.
Outside Mira's courtyard, Moen opened the door and went inside. He could already smell the delicious aroma; Mira was clearly already making breakfast.
"Moenge!"
When they saw Moen come in, Elfman and Lisanna, who were diligently watering the flowers and plants in the yard, were both pleasantly surprised.
When Moen and Emerald returned yesterday, their family was on a mission and they didn't run into them. By the time they finished their mission and returned to the guild, Moen and Emerald had already left.
So even though they knew Moen had returned to the guild, they hadn't met yet. When they saw Moen come to their house early in the morning, the two little ones were very happy and immediately dropped their water bottles and surrounded him.
"Sister Mira! Brother Moen is here!"
After gathering around Moen, Lisanna called out into the house to remind her sister, who was making breakfast.
"Okay! Come in and have breakfast!"
Mira responded loudly, looking completely unsurprised, which immediately made Lisanna realize that something was wrong.
"Did Mira know all along that Moen was coming?"
Lisanna asked in a low voice, "This girl is young, but she is very smart. It's just that she doesn't put her intelligence into studying."
Compared to the goofy Elfman next to her, Lisanna at least had a cleverness that Elfman didn't notice.
"I came here once while you two were still sleeping in."
Moen smiled and reached out to ruffle Lisanna's hair, also impressed by the girl's keenness.
Of course, he wouldn't presume to come to someone's house for a free meal at mealtime. When he came out for training, he had already visited Mira's house and happened to meet Mira, who was up early, washing up and preparing breakfast.
After chatting for a bit, Mira invited Moen to her house for breakfast. She was making breakfast anyway, so the invitation came naturally, and Moen accepted without hesitation.
Upon entering the room, Moen looked at Mira, who was busy at work. Mira was wearing an apron and bringing up breakfast. This time, she was wearing the apron he had bought for her, which made Moen nod in satisfaction. It was worth it for him to give her another one to wear every day.
"Sit down and eat."
Mira, with her hair tied in a ponytail, looked neat and tidy. She smiled at Moen, invited the three of them to sit down for a meal, and then went into the kitchen.
While there's a slight sense of incongruity in Mila's portrayal of a virtuous wife and loving mother, one has to admit that she possesses a unique charm.
Most importantly, Mila truly possesses the skill. Not just anyone can be a cook. Mila's culinary skills are exceptional, and she is entirely self-taught, without any instruction from others. When it comes to cooking, talent is indeed an unreasonable thing.
Those who can't cook will never understand exactly how much "appropriate amount" is. When cooking, they'd practically use a beaker to measure seasonings, down to the milligram. But those who can cook can do it with complete ease.
Moen is someone who can't cook. Of course, he's not completely incapable of cooking; he's the kind of person whose cooking is barely edible, but far from delicious.
Therefore, Moen really enjoys being friends with people who are good cooks, and this has always been the case. Being a good cook is something that particularly attracts Moen.
There's no way around it; people are like that. They always like what they don't have and people who can do what they can't. In this respect, Mira has a unique advantage.
Moen, Lisanna, and Elfman all sat down at the table, but none of them started eating. Instead, they waited for Mira to come over.
"Don't wait for me, just eat quickly."
Mira took off her apron, washed her hands, and came to the dining table. Seeing the three of them staring at each other, she couldn't help but scold them playfully.
"How can that be? We absolutely have to wait for the chef to arrive before we can eat, otherwise we'll feel guilty."
Moen made a joke with a smile, which made Mira roll her eyes at him.
"Eat quickly."

Mira sat down at the table, and this time everyone started eating without waiting. Moen naturally showered Mira with compliments, making her beam with joy and boosting her mood. The breakfast was a harmonious affair, filled with laughter and conversation.
"Why does breakfast seem a bit lavish today?"
After finishing his meal, Elfman muttered something under his breath. He was a little slow to realize what he was doing, but before he could finish speaking, he was met with Mira's gaze. Under his sister's watchful eye, Elfman swallowed hard, not daring to make a sound, and kept his words to himself.
"Of course it's because Moen is here!"
Elfman didn't dare to speak, but Lisanna spoke up, seemingly oblivious to Mira's gaze.
"Brother Moen, could you come over for breakfast every morning from now on? That way we can have such a delicious meal every day!"
Lisanna cupped her face in her hands, looking at Moen with an innocent and naive expression, making a very sincere request.
"Haha, I'm so sorry. It's almost time, let's help each other pack up, then we should head to the guild."
Moen glanced at Mira and noticed that the girl was already a little flushed, so he quickly laughed it off and tried to change the subject.
"Lisanna! What do you mean by this?! Have I been mistreating you? Have I been feeding you bad food?!"
However, Moen's attempt to change the subject clearly failed. Mira, hands on her hips, angrily questioned Lisanna.
"Huh? No, no! That's not what I meant!"
Faced with Mira's questioning, Lisanna paused for a moment, then hurriedly began to explain. She realized that there was something wrong with what she had just said, as if she was deliberately blaming Mira.
"I... I just want Brother Moen to come over more often. Brother Moen, Sister Mira, me, and Brother Elfman, we're like family, so I want Brother Moen to come over for meals more often."
Faced with an angry Mira, Lisanna explained in a low voice.
"And it is indeed more lavish than usual."
Seeing that Mira's complexion had improved a bit, changing from a rosy blush to a healthy glow, Lisanna quietly defended herself again.
"bump!"
"Ugh~!"
Lisanna covered her forehead and looked at Moen with a helpless expression.
"Don't say anything unnecessary when apologizing."
After flicking Lisanna on the forehead, Moen winked at her, reminding the little one not to provoke Mira anymore.
