I really can't control myself

"Isn't this thing... too weird?" Misato Katsuragi couldn't help but said as she looked at Ayanami Rei flying up and down in the kitchen.

Only three days have passed since the last deadline given by Linton for substitutions. In the past three days, Ayanami Rei's changes can no longer be described as rapid, but as weird.

If in three days, Ayanami Rei went from being completely incompetent to learning how to cook a dinner, she would certainly be able to accept it. But the problem is the current situation. Ayanami Rei here is still carving while watching the fire in the two pots.

Yes, three days ago, Ayanami Rei could cut a carrot to the point of cutting her fingers. Three days later, she was able to carve a dragon out of a carrot. This learning speed was obviously too fast. This kind of thing that could even be said to be weird actually happened right under his nose, and Katsuragi Misato didn't understand what was going on at all.

"Yeah, yeah, maybe this is talent." Linton nodded.

"This is not a matter of talent at all, okay? No matter how talented you are, you can't become like this in three days." Misato Katsuragi yelled directly.

"People without talent like you can't understand what the world is like in the eyes of a genius." Linton spread his hands and said.

"You are definitely fooling me. No matter how talented you are, you can't reach this level in three days." Misato Katsuragi yelled, "What on earth did you do here?"

"Hmm...what did you do?" Linton smiled. It was obviously Bengyu's credit, so after experimenting, Linton felt that the function of this thing was similar to what he thought. It was probably a limited wish machine?

At this time, Ayanami Rei came over with several plates and placed dinner in front of the two of them. Today is the deadline that Linton said. Originally, Linton said that he must cook a decent dinner today. Apparently Ayanami Rei has already reached this standard.

"This meat... is tender, juicy, fragrant and delicious. What kind of cooking level is this..." Misato Katsuragi didn't wait for Ayanami Rei to put down the plate, she grabbed a piece and put it in her mouth, and she was stunned.

"Tch...it doesn't actually glow..." Linton looked at it and said.

"What the hell is glowing? Is this your criterion for judging cuisine?" Misato Katsuragi yelled directly.

"Does it have to shine?" Ayanami Rei asked seriously.

"Are you taking it seriously here?" Misato Katsuragi turned around and shouted.

"Anyway, let's try it first..." Linton picked up the chopsticks, and Ayanami Rei quickly stood up straight, as if waiting for the referee to judge. Misato Katsuragi here also stopped for a moment and looked at Linton seriously.

Picking up a piece of beef, Linton put it in his mouth and chewed it, then put down his chopsticks and nodded slightly: "Yes...passed."

"Humph, if you do it so seriously, you're not qualified yet." Misato Katsuragi said, picking up the chopsticks and getting ready to use them.

"Then the next step is to travel around the country in search of legendary kitchenware." Linton said.

"Wait a minute!" Misato Katsuragi, who was just about to start, yelled, "What's going on with the legendary kitchen utensils? Are you confused with some other manga you're reading?"

"Hi." Ayanami Rei nodded.

"What the hell are you doing here? Isn't the second step below learning magic?" Katsuragi Misato yelled.

"Oh, yes, I almost missed the set. Learning how to cook made me lose my temper." Linton said, "Anyway, from now on you will be responsible for three meals. You will start learning magic tomorrow and hire another one." Week off.”

"Hey, she hasn't gone to school for three days and she still needs to ask for leave?" Misato Katsuragi said with a frown.

"So, after all, what is the use of what you learn in school? She studied somewhere for a few years and didn't know what she would do when she came out. But after studying here for three days, she was already able to work as a chef in a five-star hotel. That's it. Judging from her future, she should choose my side." Linton said.

Yes, Ayanami Rei here has indeed not gone to school these days and has taken leave. Of course, the main reason is that Linton feels that his experiment should not be disturbed by any strange factors. After all, Bengyu is a bit too idealistic, and Ayanami Rei is indeed the kind of person who has no ideas. If he is disturbed by some strange teacher, Interference from classmates can be troublesome. The same goes for science and magic. If Linton continues to experiment, it's best if no one disturbs him.

For example, a teacher at school warned her that if her grades dropped, she would have to make up for her lessons later. If Ayanami Rei really did it, under the influence of Bengyu, Linton was worried that she would directly change her career to become a scientist. In short, the best result of Linton's current experiment is to reduce other factors. To put it simply, it is to trap the person in a thinking cocoon. It is best to let her only think about one thing.

"So now you have discovered how easy it is to learn a skill if you focus on one thing." Linton said to Ayanami Rei, "Of course cooking is just the beginning. I said that is only the first step." Now, you don’t have to think about too many other things. The second step is to learn magic.”

"Yeah." Ayanami Rei nodded.

"I always feel..." Misato Katsuragi holds her forehead. She means that she always feels that Linton here is planning something, because things in the past few days always seem to be following Linton's plan. Look, Ayanami Rei here has really learned how to cook. It only took three days, and this was the first step arranged by Linton.

"Anyway, you are somewhat useful now." Before Misato Katsuragi could think of anything, Linton suddenly touched Ayanami Rei's head with one hand and said.

"Hey, hey, wait, what are you doing?" Misato Katsuragi suddenly shouted.

"Huh? I'm just trying to encourage those who work hard. Is there any problem?" Linton said.

"You can't just touch a girl's head, you bastard!" Misato Katsuragi yelled.

"But I pet my cat the same way..."

"You are very rude, this statement is a bit too much." Misato Katsuragi said and looked at Ayanami Rei here, and was surprised to see that Ayanami Rei here seemed to have a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. . Katsuragi Misato was stunned because she had never seen a second expression on Ayanami Rei's face since she met her.

Of course, this smiling expression was also fleeting, like a blooming epiphyllum. Katsuragi Misato even felt a little bit that she had seen it wrong.

"Anyway, you are responsible for contacting the school." Linton's words woke up Misato Katsuragi who was a little stunned.

"Oh, ah... wait, not going to school for a week is too much." Katsuragi Misato said.

"I've already said it... forget it, if you learn magic anyway, there is no conflict between going to school and learning magic." Linton said, "We can just separate ourselves."

"What? A clone?" Misato Katsuragi was stunned for a moment, "Is that the kind of skill that Sun Wukong has? Uh...can it really be done?"

"Of course, this is not some profound magic." Linton said.

"Then you show me how to do it." Misato Katsuragi said.

Linton was stunned for a moment.

"Didn't you say before that I can also observe and learn from you? You probably won't regret it, so you are now half of my teacher. Can't you show me how to do it?" Misato Katsuragi said.

"I can demonstrate the others, but the clone technique... is more troublesome." Linton said.

"Oh? Is it a type of magic that you are not good at?" Misato Katsuragi asked.

"No, because my shadow clone has a bad character and is really troublesome." Linton said.

"Has a bad personality? Does the shadow clone have its own personality?"

"Oh, that's not true. The character of the shadow clone completely copies the character of the original character." Linton said.

"..." Misato Katsuragi was stunned for a moment and looked at Linton for a long time, "You are so crazy that you even scolded yourself."

"Speaking of which, why are you still here and stealing my dinner?" Linton asked.

"Huh?" Katsuragi Misato was stunned for a moment, then rubbed her head, "Well, we don't need to be so clear about it, okay, it's decided, we'll have dinner here tonight!"

"Generally speaking, shouldn't this kind of thing be decided by me as the master?" Linton said.

"I also provide half of the ingredients here. Wouldn't it be more lively if there are more people?" Misato Katsuragi said, "I also have a good menu today."

"You did it?" Linton asked.

"Oh, no, it was Shinji-kun who did it." Misato Katsuragi said.

"You actually let a junior high school student cook dinner? You are really an amazing adult." Linton said.

"You are the only one who is not qualified to say this, okay?" Katsuragi Misato yelled.

Yes, of course Shinji Ikari, who ran away before, came back in the end. As he is still a member of NERV, it is naturally impossible for him to leave so casually. Even if he really wants to leave, he must go through the formalities. However, after being brought back by the people from the Intelligence Department, he had no intention of leaving, but he had become quite silent recently.

In the past three days, Shinji Ikari here has been quite cooperative and has done a lot of EVA driving training. According to Katsuragi Misato, Shinji Ikari seems to be quite talented in this aspect. After all, the synchronization rate is really a bit high.

As for Ayanami Rei's Unit Zero, the previous news was that it has been repaired, but it has not been unsealed. Currently, she is probably watching the results from Linton's side to see if Ayanami Rei can learn magic.

The next day came quickly. Ayanami Rei got up very early as usual, but she didn't start practicing her cooking skills in the morning today. Misato Katsuragi also came to Linton early in the morning. After all, teaching magic was a big deal to him.

However, until nine o'clock in the morning, there was still no response in Linton's room. Just when Misato Katsuragi was about to wake Linton up, the door opened and Linton came out with a cat and put it between the two sides. in front of people.

"You guys learn the basics from it first, and I'll catch up on some sleep here." Linton said.

"What?" Misato Katsuragi said looking at the cat on the table.
