Rebirth: 100 Days Before Doomsday - Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Customized Supplies

“What are you doing?” Davian asked when he noticed Grace taking out several lunch boxes out of nowhere.

“You know better than anyone else just what kind of situations we would be facing in the future. There will be times where we will not be able to cook food for a reason or another. So I’m just making sure that we will have cooked food for those situations.” Grace answered as she started packing up the cooked food in the lunch boxes.

Davian knew exactly what she was talking about, yet, he still had another question for her. “Do you have a way to preserve these cooked food for such a long time?”

Listening to his question, she realized that he wasn’t trying to pry, but genuinely wanted to confirm if she could store the food or not. In response, she slowly nodded her head in a positive answer and handed him one of the lunch boxes to fill.

He didn’t waste any time and did what she wanted him to do. They packed about ten lunch boxes and then Grace stored them inside her space right in front of Davian who watched all ten boxes dissappear into thin air. Still, he asked her no further questions and just shifted his attention to serve the remaining food for their dinner.

The two of them settled down at the dinning table to finally enjoy the dishes they had prepared after two long hours of hard work. “You are good at cooking too.” Davian commented after he tasted the Sweet and Sour Pork that Grace made.

“I know.” – was how she replied and noticed as the corners of his lips curved in a small smile as if he found her response amusing.

“Other than cooking and training, what other plans do you have in store for the time being?” He asked, turning their conversation toward a serious topic.

Grace took a few moments to enjoy the Butter Chicken with rice before she answered, “Because of the rain, we can’t go out. So we can only do things while staying inside, and there aren’t many of them. Still, there are a few things that we need to handle before this rain comes to an end.”

She picked up her phone and opened her notes to show him the list of some important items she came up with recently. “We need to order ships, customized ones. As well as customized RVs. Since the customization will take a while, we can place the order now and will pick up the goods once we will be able to step outside.”

At this point, Davian knew that she possessed some sort of magical place where she could store all these items. Hence, he stopped asking about where she was going to keep all these things safe.

“Let me handle this matter. I have connections in Country K and the situation there is so much better compared to our country. They will be able to get our order ready without any troubles.” He proposed and she nodded her head in approval.

“There are also several other supplies that we still need to buy, but the situation isn’t right at the moment. We can’t go out and deliveries can’t arrive at our doorsteps. So let’s wait for the rain to stop before we will try and buy those supplies.” She told him and he nodded his head in agreement.

“These masks, I can arrange them too.” He said once he noticed the special masks in the list of supplies. The list had advanced respirator masks, military-grade gas masks, nanotech masks, bio-filters, and steampunk-inspired masks.

Grace looked straight at him as she replied, “Then go ahead and arrange them. You know that we will be needing them in future.”

Davian forwarded the list to himself before returning the phone to her. “It’s a good thing that we collected major supplies before the rain arrived. From now on, it will only become harder to buy anything, especially daily necessities.”

Grace knew exactly what he was talking about. It was just a matter of time before both the government and the general public would realize that the rain was just the mere beginning of a huge catastrophe. Once that would happen, everyone would try to hoard supplies.

“We should also get ready for the Shadow Rain.” She finally opened the topic that she had been wanting to talk about with him for a while.

Davian’s gaze immediately found hers and he nodded his head in agreement. “Don’t worry. I have already informed my men about what they need to do. Are you and your team ready?”

In response, Grace just let out a small sigh and shook her head before replying, “I haven’t told them anything about the Shadow Rain yet, but I will soon. I’m just… slightly afraid since all seven of them are equally dear to me. I don’t want anything to go wrong.”

It was hard for her to show her vulnerability in front of anyone, but she was realizing that for some unknown reason, she had been recently doing it in front of Davian without much trouble. It was as if she had already started trusting him to some level without even realizing it.

She was pulled out of her thoughts when she felt a warm hand covering hers that was resting on the table. When she looked up, she found Davian looking straight into her eyes.

“Stop worrying. All your team members are strong. I’m sure they all will survive the Shadow Rain. You know that doing this is very important if we want to survive in the apocalypse. We can’t skip the Shadow Rain, like you did in your previous life.”

She nodded her head in understanding. No one knew better than her just how important the Shadow Rain was.

“There’s also something that I have been wanting to tell you for a while. I think now is the perfect time for me to do it.” Davian suddenly confessed and before she could have asked what he was talking about, she noticed him creating the portal.
