Chapter 298 (1/2)
”Affirmative, host. A master chef is the last skill level in the Ultimate Cooking System.”
”Good. Inject it in!” Rake imagined that he was a balloon about to be introduced with air.
”Affirmative, host.” The system responded and the knowledge flowed in like water.
Myriad of cooking skills and recipes were digested into the mind of Rake. He felt a state of being one with the void and had totally forgotten about himself.
What mattered most were the essences that hammered down his brain and flooded them completely with new information.
Rake felt the passing of indeterminable time yet what had actuality passed in reality was but mere breaths.
”Well, that made me hungry as fuck.” Rake muttered audibly and combed the memory that was missing a few seconds before.
”Now what to buy next?” he whispered later on. Rake roamed his eyes on his restaurant and it felt very constricting. It only gave him a space of five square feet and a bit of change.
How can a master chef cook in this tiny dwelling suited for dwarves? There wasn't even sizable corner for the cooking area much less a seat for his customers in the future.
”I want an upgrade on my store.” Rake announced out loud.
”Affirmative, host. Do you want to spend your remaining shop points for the purchase?” the system responded.
”How much can i afford at the moment?”
”There's a place configuration priced at 950,000 shop points, host. Do you want to buy it?”
”Perhaps.” Rake paused to think about the rest of his task at hand. It did not take him a minute of ask another one of his queries.
”How about the materials i need for cooking? Are all of those for free?”
”Affirmative, host. The system will provide you with all the necessary equipment in order to fully facilitate the advent of the Ultimate Cooking System Restaurant in this world.”
”Even the raw items such as meat and rice?”
”Affirmative, host.”
”Salt and pepper?”
”Affirmative, host.” It was at this time that Rake finally calmed down after taking a chest heaving breath.
”Okay then. Make this trashy room turn into a new kingdom of food and spices!” Rake tried to be poetic but only invited an audible cough from behind him.
If he did know any better, then he would have realized that it was Lilith's mockery of the grand delusion that he was weaving. Fortunately, Rake was left unawares and that was what made all the difference.
”FLASH!” the scene coated in white mist and before Rake could ever take another breath, the place has now entirely transformed into a grand display of extravagance.
The area was huge and immaculate.
The floors did not shine one shade as all that would touch the feet of its occupants was the soft furs of divine beasts.
The coated scenery did not possess a single dull hue but complimented its design with a mixture of light colors that brought life and comfort to anyone who would gaze at this epic marvel.
