"Little Griffin, I'm sorry for scolding you like that... I shoulda' handled that better," Rhoanne scratched behind her head and bowed her head to Griffin.

"Can you forgive this elder sister?"

"There's nothing to be sorry about, elder sister, and you were right. I put my siblings in a lot of danger. Father always told me that a real man should always admit his mistakes!" Griffin beat his chest and held his sobbing face up high.

"By the way, what were you guys doing here?" asked Gus.

"We were looking for a spot where we can hide 'em for a while, we can't just leave them outside so we sneaked them in the village and found this strange house we've never seen before!" said Gretel.

Nico returned to everyone else while holding two empty steel mugs.

"It looks like they won't wake up for a while since they are extremely exhausted."

Nico came back from the tied up Individuals. It seems, the children have placed them in a corner, where they silently slept.

"Did you find out who they were?"

"Not yet, Mr. Gus, It seems they couldn't move or talk properly," answered Nico.

Griffin came up to Mr. Gus and Nico because he remembered what he wanted to ask Gus when he saw him inside the Dungeon entrance.

"Why are you here Mr. Gus? Did you make this mudhouse? Wasn't this a Dungeon?" asked Griffin.

"Well... you see..." Gus is already fidgeting, he didn't know what to say to the children.

"Wow! Look, guys! There are all kinds of animals down there! Horned rabbits and... Chickens?!"

The ever-curious Cindy has already wandered down the Dungeon's 2nd floor.

"Aah!!! you guys were planning to eat delicious food without us?! For shame Mr. Gus, for shame!" yelled Gretel.

"I bet Ms. Sarah will give us a good scolding for coming home late," said Ray.

The children stopped celebrating and began to sweat buckets instead.

"It looks like you have no choice but to offer a grand feast to appease the young ones," said Nico.

"Sigh... I thought we could end the night with a quiet drink, but this situation is not bad either, I have to send you off properly anyway." Gus patted Nico on his back and faced the children.

"'ll get Ms. Sarah and the little munchkin right away, Boss!"

Rhoanne dashed towards the Orphanage as fast as she could. While humming tunes about food and sweets.

"Ahh! Wait for us, Ms. Rhoanne! Please protect us from Elder sister Sarah!" said Gretel.

The children went after their Sister Rhoanne, hoping she would grant them her divine protection.

Since there are new ingredients available, Gus figured it's the best time to rate the quality of his pastures by trying out new recipes. But before that, Gus thought he should use his skill "Healing Armor" on the injured fugitives. After a few minutes, their injuries have simply vanished.

"I should let them sleep more, I guess my healing skills cant restore lost stamina." thought Gus.

He opened his Status Function.

Gus decided that his menu for dinner is something that could match well with drinking ales and liquor.

Beer-Battered c.o.c.katrice

Horned Rabbit Yakitori

Chahan - j.a.panese Egg fried Rice

Gus thought that he should expand his range of ingredients very soon. With his current list of ingredients, he can only make basic western cuisine and j.a.panese cuisine.

Being an experienced cook at a very popular restaurant back on Earth, he is always well prepared to serve multiple orders in a blink of an eye. He took full advantage of his spatial storage's ability, which is to stop or manipulate the pa.s.sage of time as long as it's within his storage area. The first thing he did was to make rice as this would take approximately thirty minutes to finish. Then, he brought out his beer batter mix, made from flour, beer, and eggs. Next, he brought out his all-purpose pre-made yakitori sauce mix, from soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sugar, mirin, and salt. and set it aside.

He also took advantage of being a DungeonMaster to create a makes.h.i.+ft grill and fire pit by s.h.i.+fting soil around. He also brought out his Cauldron full of palm oil as his deep-fryer and create a simple steel slab to place on the fire pit to make a makes.h.i.+ft griddle. Gus already prepared the fire, to make the griddle and the fryer hot and ready.

Gus took out 3 kilograms of c.o.c.katrice meat which he has already pre-cut in his spatial storage. he seasoned them well, with oil, crushed garlic, and chopped onions and let it marinate. Next, he took out 2 kilograms of rabbit meat in his spatial storage and simply brushed it with oil. Gus made Steel skewers and proceeded to pierce the rabbit pieces and grill it on the makes.h.i.+ft griller. Gus made sure to make ample s.p.a.ce between the meat and fire so it won't easily overcook.

Gus proceeds to fan out his rice properly since it has just finished cooking. He skillfully chopped a piece of onion and lightly sauteed it in oil till translucent. At this point, Gus added chopped bacon till the intoxicating aroma of salt and pork has filled the air. Next, he added 2 raw eggs in the pan and cook it for a few seconds before adding the rice. Gus made a steel wok for this occasion and tossed the rice gracefully. As the raw eggs slowly coated the beautifully cooked rice, he added so sauce and salt to taste. The j.a.panese Fried Rice is finally done.

He moved to the Rabbit skewers which was partially cooked. The Rabbit skewers have absorbed the smoky flavor. Knowing this, he then proceeds to baste the rabbit pieces with the Yakitori sauce and returned the skewers over the fire. This will properly add more taste and smoky flavor to the rabbit meat. After a few seconds, he brushed a final coat of yakitori mix on the rabbit pieces before placing the skewers on a steel platter. The Yakitori horned-rabbit is finally complete.

Lastly, Gus dipped the c.o.c.katrice pieces in beer batter, and finally frying it in his fryer-cauldron till the pieces turn golden brown. The pieces were crispy thanks to the perfect beer batter recipe. After frying everything, he only needed to sprinkle the pieces with salt before serving it on a steel platter. Gus thought he should add a proper dipping sauce next time. Beer-battered c.o.c.katrice is done!

"Uhm, Excuse me, sir? Who are you?" Gus heard an unfamiliar voice.

"Are you one of Phanzal's Knight? How did we get here?"---

"No, I am not a Knight from Phanzal. And my friends brought you here out of kindness you two better thank them when they return. You can simply call me Gus." Gus noticed that they were looking at the food behind him intensely. Their stomachs started rumbling and their mouths were already drooling.

Gus just stood up and took some of the food he cooked and placed it in front of them.

"Before I give this to both of you, promise me that you will tell me everything after you finish eating."
