38. God –..yeah, maybe it works out.. I can make a pizza… Serpent –a pizza from a macaroni..? God –yes, it will stay delicious, you will see.. if I heat it up in 600 degrees, it turns into bread dough.. Serpent –you may transform the water in wine.. God –Yes, I can transform anything, my oven is a prototype of a nuclear reactor.. .The energy comes from the fire, it’s possible manipulating matter.. the food is a good example of this, you’ll see..
