"Wow, mishter! That smells so gooodddd!"

Gus shook off the memories of her sister, and wondered about his own.

"How could a little girl fit in this armor with me?"

Gus wondered.

"Urm little girl? can you hear me?" Gus asked.

The little loli snapped out from her trance and suddenly got scared of the voice she heard.

"Pleeesh don't eat me mishter spirit! Gretel didn't mean to make you angry!! Gretel promise to be good!"

This scene reminded Gus of his sibling.

Gus adored his little sister back on Earth. She was quite lively and adorable. She likes sweets, comics, novels, and tv shows. When she gets in trouble, she also fumbles in her sentences.

This silver-haired girl's broken speech tugged at his heartstrings.

"I'm not going to hurt you little girl. Can you tell me your name? Wait let me guess... Is it Gretel?" Gus replied carefully to calm her down.

"Yes, it's Gretel! Urm... Mishter spirit? can I have some of that? Gretel is really hungry." asked the drooling Gretel with big hungry eyes.

"Of course little Gretel! Just give me a bit more time, and I promise you can eat the whole thing."

Gus wondered if he really is a spirit since it seems he realized that he doesn't have a body of his own.

He also wanted to ask Gretel how she got into her current situation.

But Gus' moral compa.s.s triumphs over him once again. He knows he cannot stomach a hungry person in front of him, more so if this person reminded him of his little sister.

Gus slowly took off his helmet and asked Gretel to sit by the fire to warm herself up. Gretel agreed, crawled out of the armor with a sack in her hand. She sat next to the bonfire, put both her hands under her cheek and just stared at Gus with sparkling blue eyes.

Gus placed his helmet back on and focused on his cooking. He took the onion b.u.t.ter mixture pot off the heat and started to skin the rabbit. He made small cuts near its legs and in one smooth movement.... he skinned the rabbit after one good tug. he properly processed the rabbit into pieces and repeated the process for the second rabbit.

he took out a new frying pan, put a little bit of that b.u.t.ter from the onion b.u.t.ter mix, and started to heat it up. When the pan is hot enough, he quickly tossed in the rabbit pieces to give it a good sear.

After the meat has browned on the outside he tossed the meat and mixed it with the onion b.u.t.ter mixture, and returned everything to the flame. he added water, boiled it and lastly simmer for 20 minutes.

And the quick rabbit stew is done! Gus would've added more ingredients to the pot, maybe a bit more salt as well, but he knows he has to work with what he has. Gus took a small sip and nodded in satisfaction.

"Gretel! It's ready!"

"Really?! Yay!" Gretel Rushed over to the hot steaming pot. After taking a few steps, she glanced over her arms, like she was looking for something, but after the scent of the stew tickled her nose again, she ignored it and continued her advance to the stew.

Gretel took a spoonful with a lot of rabbit meat and quickly placed it in her mouth.

He didn't expect what happened next. Gretel was shaking, then started to cry loudly while chowing down on her stew. The more she cried, the faster she finished the pot.

Poor Gretel. All Gus can do is offer her water served in an old cup.

"I'm shleepy mister spirit... Thank you for the delicious food. It was the best thing i ate in my whole life..." Gretel immediately snuggled beside the campfire and slept like a baby. Gus took the cape behind his back and covered little Gretel.

Then a notification alerted. Gus opened his status.

‐-----------‐---------------------------------------

Gus was amazed he can buff people with finished dishes. So he wondered, what if he used better ingredients and materials?

He also noticed the skill point the system awarded him for leveling up. He figured he should use this as soon as possible.

Gus read the words below his name.

"Living Armour, huh.."

Just with the 2 words alone, he realized he is not human. It also explained how Gretel can fit in the armor. But Gus now wonders, how did she get in there in the first place?
