A Living Armour Owns A Tavern 2 In The Kitchen

"It's almost as big as a Dog!"

Surprised, the moldy door he was leaning on broke and surprised the giant rat. As Gus was about to take a stance to defend himself, the startled rat just gave Gus a surprised look and ignored him. It went to another direction as if it was called by something.

"Well, that's lucky. if it pounced on me, I'm sure I would've died!

Coming from a very peaceful world, Gus has no means to defend himself properly.

Gus remembered that the system reminded him to open his status menu.

As soon as he thought about it, a virtual menu that looked a lot like the one in video games appeared in front of him.

"What is with this system's way of rating my skills?! "

There are some other options in his status menu but he decided to skip it for now.

At the bottom, Gus found the manual option.

"h.e.l.lo, User. Congratulations on being the super-duper lucky chosen user for this system. to unlock more fancy features, please level up and earn skill points to purchase new skills! skill points are awarded based on the host's dish and based on the patron's satisfaction!"

Gus tries to read more, but it's blurred out. he figured, there must be more conditions to unlock it.

As the interface closed, Gus almost puked blood.

"System, besides giving me corny sentences that would make me want to punch you in the neck if you even have one, could you at least have given me a single skill to fend for my life?"

Gus even remembered the system mentioning something about this world, being harsh.

"What would I do the next time that big rat-dog comes back?"

CLANG! CRASH!

More noise was made outside the room. Gus slowly turned his back and saw a pair of glowing red eyes outside the dark corridor.

"F___k my luck!"

As he drew his sword, prepared and ready to defend himself. 2 glowing red eyes slowly multiplied revealing the pack of agitated rat-dogs in the dark corridor.

The pack of rabid rats rushed towards Gus. He is prepared for the worst. Mysteriously, they just run pa.s.s by him and the pack just went inside a big hole.

Gus took back what he said about his luck, put his sword back in his scabbard, and continue looking for the exit.

Gus went further down and found himself in a familiar place which eased him a little bit. a medieval-style kitchen. although musky and dirty, he found himself intrigued at the equipment and cookware they had. a suspended cauldron, pots, and pans hanged on one part of the wall. The kitchen also has a big iron slab table like counter and underneath it is where the firewood goes.

Gus already guessed that the castle is abandoned judging from the thick layer of dust and cobwebs that are spread around the area. He couldn't help himself and took the pots and pans with him. he could tell that they were pre-loved since it doesn't have rust. The previous owner must have treated the pans with oil before and after use to avoid oxygen from corroding the cast iron pans.

As soon as he thought about using his territorial skill to test it out, a hole appeared in front of him. He placed the pans inside the black s.p.a.ce then poof! it's gone! he opened his status function and in his territorial option, displayed the contents of his s.p.a.ce storage.

It really worked! He looted the kitchen after saying a thankful remark to the previous owner. Gus took the knives and this giant cleaver and put it in his storage. The tools are in bad condition, but still can be used. All it needs is a good wash and disinfect it properly with boiling water. He can scrub off the rust easily.

Gus also wanted the cauldron but he stopped as soon as it didn't fit anymore in his storage.

"Hurry in this room, QUICK!"

A group of adventurers rushed in the kitchen. the first look like a bald muscular goon that carried a two-handed sword. the second is a blue-haired female who carries around a wand, and lastly a skinny yellow-haired youth wearing a bandana and a dagger in his hand.

"Betty I told you! we should have left that kid! she is dead weight! we can't run away with her! not with a group of mischief surrounding us!" The bald guy shouted at the woman. while he barred the door behind them as the pack of feral rats keep scratching at the rotten door.

"I'm not leaving behind all that loot! I almost died, and that's more than enough reason for me not leaving here empty-handed!" the woman named betty retorted.

the yellow-haired youth looked around and said,

"Where is that useless little carrier of ours?! I told her to keep up and stay close! d.a.m.n it!"

Gus was surprised at the group of adventurers that barged in. From their discussion, Gus figured that they are s.h.i.tty people for leaving someone behind to die. They were the type Gus hated the most.

in the kitchen, camaraderie and cooperation is important. "Cooks need good coordination with each other to work harmoniously. If one slows down, the whole ship will sink! you help each other out when one area is in trouble. it's one of the reasons why the food comes out fast, hot and delicious!

"I guess I'll just ask them for the exit and I will be on my way." bad people or not, Gus needs all the help he can get to leave the castle.

As Gus approached them, all 3 adventurers tensed up as they pointed their weapons at Gus.
