“This … This is too delicious! “
Colossus watched Hawking line up for the 30th time for another portion, his own fork frozen in mid-air.
Every portion that Hawking ate had been enough to fill the stomach of a grown man close to bursting, yet Hawking blazed through thirty portion of them while saying that he was only half full.
“Hawking is very strong, even stronger than father. I suspect that his ability is actually super-eater and super-strength!”
Looking at the stunned Colossus, Little Pietro said with some pride.
Colossus smiled and shook his head:
“Well, Mr. Yugo is going to be very busy today.”
Just like Colossus said, the fat chef Yugo held his forehead in his hand as he saw Hawking appear in front of him again and again.
“Kid, you’ve eaten almost a whole day’s worth of the school’s food stockpile!”
There are dozens of people in the school, many of them are children, and they don’t eat much in one meal. Among the adults, many women have the habit of dieting and keeping in shape.
Therefore, the thirty portions of food Hawking ate were indeed almost enough for a normal school day.
“Isn’t that because the food you cook is so delicious, sir? By the way, sir, is that your telekinesis?”
Hawking asked curiously as he watched the various ingredients behind Yugo being automatically cleaned, cut, and cooked. The spoons and ladles in the front of him were also unattended as they automatically served dishes.
Yugo’s face brightened when he heard Hawking’s praise.
“Yes, but my telekinesis is far cry from Professor Jean. My limit is only a few kilograms.”
“I see. I’ll probably need another thirty portions to be full, so thank you for your hard work, sir!”
Hawking took the plate full of food and gave a forewarning to Yugo before leaving, which made Yugo’s head suddenly grew bigger.
Well, half of his reason for entering the mutant school was basically just to eat as much as he want, so he never intended to be polite.
Mutant abilities were rarely truly unique. For example, many mutants have the telepathic abilities, though there were basically nobody on the level of Professor X.
The same goes for telekinesis. Yugo was only a level 1 mutant, so his telekinesis would only ever be enough for controlling kitchen utensil to assist him in cooking.
The level 5 mutant Jean could easily levitate cars on the street even as a child.
“Looks like we’ll have to do some big shopping early tomorrow morning!”
Yugo calculated that the remaining ingredients in the kitchen would probably be barely enough for Hawking to eat alone.
Half an hour later, when all the students in the cafeteria had left, Hawking was finally full. This was the first time since he time traveled that he was completely full.
“Don’t professors usually eat with us?”
Hawking asked casually on the way to his room after eating and leaving the cafeteria.
During his meal session just now, none of the school professors, including Professor X, Storm, and Cyclops, were there.
He felt uneasy recalling Storm’s serious eyes back when he first arrived to the school this afternoon.
“We usually eat together in the cafeteria, but we really didn’t see them today.”
Colossus also had a puzzled look on his face.
Hawking’s body froze when he heard these words.
“There’s no way there would be any trouble in our first day at school!”
Shaking his head, he felt that maybe he was overthinking.
His conversation with Colossus never touched on the Wolverine Logan. From what he remembered, Wolverine should’ve been in this school as an indispensable member of X-Men in the major events.
In any case, he needed to be vigilant. He avoided any extreme training and decided to keep to light exercises until he knew the school like the back of his hand.
Not long after Hawking’s group left the canteen, a bearded man wearing a leather jacket and smoking a cigar strode into the canteen.
“Hey Yugo, bring me some dinner.”
“Logan, when did you come back?”
Yugo laughed when he saw Logan.
The two of them were the only two smoking enthusiasts in the entire school, and they often smoked and chatted together in the cafeteria.
“Just about three hours ago. The matter isn’t settled yet; there wasn’t anything in the address the professor gave me.
“I wanted to get the professor to check my brain, but then he left me here, saying that he had to leave the school for a while and asked me to play nanny for a few days!”
Logan complained as he pulled out a cigar and threw it to Yugo.
Yugo took the cigar and lit it.
“No wonder I haven’t seen Professor here tonight.
“Oh, by the way, you’re a little late. There was a new kid in the school today that was really good at eating. He finished the two days’ worth of food that I have stockpiled.”
“Well, it looks like I’m going to have a look at the refrigerator on the second floor. Maybe I can find some snacks!”
Logan looked at the clean kitchen and had no choice but to turn around and leave.
Although his body wouldn’t experience adverse effect from prolonged starvation, the hunger was still there.
Hawking returned to his room and performed hundreds of warm-up exercises before going to bed. He took a bath in the bathroom, changed into pajamas, and sat cross-legged on the bed.
“Since I’m not going to do extreme physical exercise these days, let’s spend more time on Ki concentration training.”
He stretched out his middle finger, and then focused his thoughts on it. A ball of white energy began to slowly condense, then faltered and then disappeared.
Ki is another name for life energy. All living beings, even flowers and plants contain Ki.
Turtle School’s Kamehameha concentrates the Ki in the body and burst it out as a super destructive beam.
Although Hawking’s current physical strength cannot Kamehameha to the same level as the thirteen-year-old Goku, he can still sense the Ki in his body with Goku’s senses and slowly stimulate it.
Kamehameha aside, it’s good to train ordinary Ki projectile attacks.
After mastering Ki manipulation and cultivating it, it wasn’t impossible that he could develop more Ki-related moves.
For example, Yamcha’s Ki Blast, Chiaotzu’s Dodon Ray, Tien Shinhan’s Solar Flare, Krilin’s Ki Slash, etc. It would only took time to learn them.
Knock Knock!
Right after Hawking managed to stabilize a Ki sphere the size of a marble on his fingers, a knock came to his door.
He found little Wanda and little Pietro standing at the door wearing pajamas and holding pillows.
“Hawking, we can’t sleep.”
It turns out that the pair, still uncomfortable with the new environment, were a little scared to stay in their own room. They ran over to find their big brother Hawking to be comforted to sleep.
“Come in.”
Hawking rubbed their heads and led them in.
Wanda and Pietro were only ten years old. They would normally in the second or third grade. It wasn’t surprising for them to be scared.
They would be fine after a few days familiarizing themselves in the new place.
