27 Promised Treats

As they entered the Living room, Gretel and the gang can't help but ask Gus, what dangers he and his party members faced inside the Goblin- infested dungeon. All of them were expecting an epic tale of Gus and his companions. A heroic feat saving the town of Yellowleaf from bloodthirsty goblins and Conquered a Cla.s.s A threat Dungeon.

"Wait, everyone! An epic story needs an epic snack with an epic drink! Do you guys agree?"

"YES!"-------- Shouted the kids.

"Maybe I didn't hear that right?! Do you guys agree?" repeated Gus.

"YES! CHEF!"------ Shouted the kids once more.

They were so loud that Sarah, Rhoanne, and Nico can't help but laugh during their conversation as they heard Gus have fun with the kids.

"Then an epic night requires epic preparations! Sous Chef Gretel! I summon you!" playfully said, Gus.

Gretel came quickly to Gus then stood up straight and gave him a quick salute. "Your Orders? Chef!"

asked Gretel.

"Sous Chef Gretel! Your task is to make this living room as epic as it can be, for our epic story! You have forty-five minutes to do this task along with the kitchen brigade! Can you accomplish this task?" asked Gus.

"No problem, Chef!" answered Gretel

"Alright, you guys heard our Head Chef! While he prepares our epic snack and drinks, we need to prepare an epic living room!" said Gretel as she commands her younger siblings.

"YES! Sous chef, Sister Gretel!"

"See you all after forty-five minutes, Good luck!" said Gus as he walked towards the kitchen to prepare a snack and drink for everyone.

In the Kitchen--------

Gus opened his Status Function to try out his upgraded BARTER skill. He was very excited to try this function as soon as he saw it the first time. As soon as Gus activated his Barter Function, he was excited as he saw different kinds of Kitchen Equipment up for sale! He even saw popular brands back on earth! He was just lost in pure bliss the moment he saw the Kitchen equipment they used in Five Star Hotels!

Gus snapped out of it and focused back on trying to purchase a high deck oven for the kids.

-------------------------

12 inch Deck high Gas Oven: 500 gold

This Gas Deck Oven custom built by the system.

The System First series ovens are ideal for high-volume restaurants, offering the same durability and performance as our Master Grade deck ovens with the lower consumption on Gas tanks. The independently controlled, Eight fan system elements on top and bottom allow for uniform air circulation temperatures and perfectly balanced baking. Each oven chamber has one steel deck with a 12" deck height. These ovens come in two different widths and can be stacked up to three high to increase production without sacrificing s.p.a.ce. Other options are available to accommodate the configuration of your kitchen, such as casters for added mobility and special-height legs.

-------------------------

Gus was surprised! When it came to ingredients, the system was kind enough to sell ingredients at a bargain price, but a High Gas Deck Oven Costs 500 gold.

"User, Please don't think of me like that! As I've said before, I price justly and fairly. It takes that much currency for me to recreate Earth's Gas Deck Oven. This model is the least expensive this system can sell." explained the system.

"Won't you give me a discount of 50 gold?" asked Gus.

But the system just fell silent.

"Fine! I'll buy it! I'll need a modern oven anyway!" said Gus.

"Thank you for your patronage! Generating now! Completed! Where would you like me to place your oven?" asked the system.

"Right around here please." Gus chose a place in the kitchen, where Sarah and the kids won't likely get into an accident.

"Done! Thank you for your patronage, do you wish to buy more equipment?" asked the system.

"Wait! where's the propane tank?" asked Gus.

"This recreated model converts Mana into gas. As long as anybody can inject Mana, they can keep using this as much as they want! This low emission model, needs only about 20 Mana for it to run the whole day." said the system."

Gus also bought the following from the system:

10 gold - Digital weighing scale.

10 coppers - Accurate measuring cups and spoons

10 coppers -Pastry Brush

2 silvers -Piping Bag with different end shape attachments

5 gold- SILPAT Premium Non-Stick Silicone Baking Mat, Half Sheet Size, 11-5/8" x 16-1/2"

"Dear User, The System can also sell you the same tools at a bargain price!" voiced the system.

"Don't worry. I just want to see if I can also make a profit by selling kitchen equipment in this world. If I can, then I can finally buy those Premium ingredients and Equipment you are locking away from me." said Gus.

"Strive Hard! Dear User!" said the system with a joyful tone.

With the New Kitchen equipment that was recreated in front of him, his expression is like a kid in a toy store. He went straight away and made his favorite treat. Cream puffs.

Before the Goblin lord disaster, Gus has planned beforehand to surprise the kids with a fizzy drink back on earth, which is popularly called, a soda! This was supposed to be one of Cindy's treat when they returned from the feast. Feeling generous, he had an idea to produce drinks for everyone since he was in a festive mood. He actually used up a point in his barter skill to purchase these ingredients:

Cocoa --- 12 coppers

Cola --- 2 silvers

Ground coffee beans --- 6 coppers

The Drink that was meant for Cindy, was instead given to Rhoanne during their fight against the Goblin Lord. He wanted to see if ingredients alone from the System, can boost its recipient's stats.

It turns out that it really did had an effect! It's as if Earth's food products are comparable to the food of the G.o.ds itself!

He used 2 points in his barter skill and purchased these ingredients:

Milk 2 silvers

Eggs 2 silvers

Vanilla 3 silvers

Heavy Cream 25 coppers

Corn starch 4 silvers

Beer 2 silvers

Gus is left with 9 more Skill points.

Time to bake the epic treats!

First, Gus preheated his brand new oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and let it build its temperature as he prep for his other ingredients. Next, Gus placed Flour, b.u.t.ter Salt, in a medium-sized saucepot. He mixed these three over low fire till it turned into a dough.

Using the pastry bag, Gus placed the warm dough inside the pastry bag and piped coin-shaped pieces on each steel tray lined with the Non-stick Baking Mat. He baked them immediately and waited for around 10-15 minutes till the pieces, "puffed" up. If baked successfully, the baked goods should create a large air pocket inside the baked, puffed-up dough. these coin-shaped pieces are called, "pate a choux."

As he bakes and cools the rest of the dough, he started making the pastry cream to be filled in the pate a choux. Gus then placed Milk, Sugar, Eggs yolks, corn starch, flour, and whole eggs in another saucepot over low fire. He carefully stirred using a wire whisk, to break up the clumps of flour and corn starch. As the mixture slightly thickens, he switches to a mixing spatula till it reaches his desired thickness. Finally, he takes the cream mixture off the fire and finally adds a drop or two of vanilla essence. A Cake-like aroma immediately explodes inside the whole kitchen.

As he let the cream mixture cool down, he now prepares the toppings for his cream puffs. The first is Caramel and the Next is Chocolate ganache! He used a small frying pan to caramelize the sugar on the first pan and used another to mix chocolate and cream carefully with a ***"Bain Marie" method, making chocolate ganache.

Now is the time to a.s.semble everything. Gus took a piece of pate a choux, and made a hole at the bottom. The bread's hole is then filled with warm, vanilla pastry cream. Finally, he dips the top portion of the cream puff, with either Caramel or Chocolate. For Presentation, Gus stacked one piece over the other, till its' height reaches an arm's length. Gus stacked the cream puffs to form the shape of a giant pyramid. The Caramel and Chocolate act as a "binder" that keeps the whole thing from falling apart. Gus ended up with two big pyramids, one for caramel, and the other for chocolate.

Gus took a moment to admire the sweet stack of cream puff pyramids in front of him. Cooking is definitely an Art! Gus thought. Finally, for the drinks, he simply made Hot Cocoa for everyone by using milk, sugar, and cocoa. Gus wanted to serve coffee, but he thought it might take a while for them to get used to this bitter drink. He placed everything in his spatial storage and made his way to the living room. It took him an hour to prepare everything. Although he was late, he knew he will be fine.

"Time to start our Epic Adventure!" said Gus.
