"Hmm? I'm sorry Master, l do have a brother, but Master is definitely not my brother." answered the girl.

"Dear User, she is one of the clay golems that the user obtained as a reward. By default, they are tasked to defend you with their very lives. They are also tasked with defending your area from those who wish to make trouble with your business and within your property." said the System

"Master, and dear guest, I sincerely recommend visiting our Pick of the Week section. Please follow me."

Gus and Nico followed the Female-looking Golem. If the System didn't mention that she was a clay golem, Gus would really have been convinced that this person is his younger sister. The way she moves and her gestures are exactly the same with his real sister back on earth.

"System? Why does this person look my Sister?" asked Gus.

"Dear User, The System bases everything it creates from the User's Memories. This System simply used the image of the persons the User has a deep affection for. Is it not to your liking?" asked the System.

"It's fine," answered Gus. He thought he should even thank the System. With this, at least he won't ever forget the loving face of his little sister.

"I didn't know you had a sister, Gus," said Nico.

"It only looks like her. It seems that she is one of the Guardians of this place," said Gus.

"Your Sister is beautiful. It makes me wonder what you really look like," said Nico.

"Hahaha. I think it's best if we keep it this way. There is nothing notable to my face before coming here anyway." Gus was simply being humble. Back on Earth, he really did have a notable face. As they finally reached the Pick of the Week Section, Gus was curious about what the System has to sell them.

PICK OF THE WEEK

BALAMB GARDEN HOT DOGS: 2 Silvers

The Balamb Garden Hot Dogs are world-famous! No Balamb Garden Student will not protect this delicious dis.h.!.+ Can't have any Galbadians finding out the secret recipe to these beautiful pieces of food.

ABSINTHE *Green fairy* - 5 Gold per bottle

is historically described as a distilled, highly alcoholic beverage (45–74% ABV / 90–148 U.S. proof)

It is an anise-flavoured, green coloured spirit derived from botanicals, including the flowers and leaves of Artemisia absinthium ("grand wormwood"), together with green anise, sweet fennel, and other medicinal and culinary herbs. It is sometimes mistakenly referred to as a liqueur, but it is not traditionally bottled with added sugar and is, therefore, cla.s.sified as a spirit. It is bottled at a high level of alcohol by volume, but it is normally diluted with water before being consumed. Though this version of Absinthe has been toned down so it can be legally sold, It is still illegal in some countries due to its very high alcoholic content. Be careful! User will Suffer Stat penalties temporarily. But then again, who in the right mind would drink this before a fight?!

CHIPS AHOY! Chocolate Chip Cookies - 3 Silvers

It is the third best-selling cookie in Earth's United States. Chocolate chip cookies originate from the United States and are aptly named so due to their main ingredient – chocolate chips or chocolate morsels. The cookies are marketed as having so many chocolate chips that it is impossible to take a bite which contains no chocolate morsels. Have a chocolate morsel right here and right now!

DEVIL FRUIT: 20,000 PLAT

Devil Fruits are mystical and mysterious fruits found throughout a certain world that, when consumed, provide the eater a special ability, depending on the type and variation of the fruit itself. With only one notable exception, an individual can only acquire the powers of a single Devil Fruit. Be careful! Eating this will take away your ability to swim! Just kidding. The Ocean spirits of Circa Has no beef with the Devil Fruits, so Go and swim ahead!

PHILIPPINE LAKATAN BANANAS - 4 coppers per piece

Lakatan bananas, also spelled Lacatan, are diploid banana cultivars, And also, It is one of the most common banana cultivars in the Philippines. Lakatan typically grows to a height of five to nine feet. The fruits can be harvested 8 to 12 months after planting. Lakatan is the most popular dessert banana in the Philippines. It is very popular to millions of j.a.panese, Chinese and South Koreans!

"Seriously?! A Devil Fruit?!"

Gus realized that the System doesn't only sell Ingredients from Earth. This Grocery can not just simply end world hunger, so many changes can happen if these items happen to go out to the world of Circa. But looking at exorbitant price, he heaved a sigh of relief knowing not just anyone can purchase this dangerous fruit. He was curious about what would this world look like if it suddenly became an actual world of "One Piece." Gus thought that his Sister would really love that.

"h.e.l.lo young Miss, Is there something you need?"

A long-haired, handsome man has surprised both Ms. Sarah and Little Sage.

"Um... nothing!... we are fine. May I ask who might you be?" asked Ms. Sarah. She blushed for witnessing such a handsome, foreign-looking man with such effeminate features.

"My apologies young miss, I am simply a humble laborer under the employ of Master Gus."

said the handsome man.

"Ahh! Ms. Sarah? Is he a boy or a Girl? Little Sage is so confused?!" Little Sage just stared deeply at the gentleman in front of her.

"Little Sage! It is very rude to ask that question in front of him! I apologize on her behalf." Sarah bowed her head to this man.

"Don't worry young miss, I would take that as a compliment." answered the handsome man grinning.

"I have a question, Mister! Where are the Sweets?!" asked Little Sage as she jumped up and down from excitement.

"Ah yes, I do believe we have that in the Pick of the Week section, Please follow me." said the man.

"Yay! Come on, Elder Sister! Let's follow this handsome girly man!" said Little Sage.

Sarah can only sigh as she followed after them.

"Is that... Old man Henry?!" Gus saw the second clay golem, along with Sarah and Little Sage.

Gus admired one of his culinary mentors, Mr. Henry from the Vegetable store back on earth. It comes to no surprise that the System chose his image to be a Guardian. But he looked so much younger. He looks exactly like the old photos of himself which Gus saw before when he visits Mr. Henry's home for cooking lessons.

"Here you are Little Miss, I wholeheartedly suggest this box of chocolate chip cookies. I hope it will suit to your tastes." Said the handsome golem.

"Ch...chocolate! Papa! Can I buy this, pretty please?" asked Little Sage.

"Of course Daughter! Put it in the shopping cart."

"Yay! How do you say this again... c..C...ookieez? Sounds funny. But it sounds delicious too!"

Little Sage admired the packaging with the detailed pictures of chocolate cookies printed on it.

"Master, It's an honor to meet you." the handsome golem bowed towards Gus.

"It's quite a ha.s.sle if you guys don't have names. I will name you Amanda and Henry," said Gus.

"Thank you, Master, for granting us names which you so carefully bestowed upon us. Henceforth, we will now be known as Amanda and Henry," said the Clay Golems.

The golems both bowed down once more with grat.i.tude. It was no surprise that Gus named his Golems after his mentor and his sister. After all, he thought it would be too awkward to call them differently with those familiar faces.

"Hmm?! What are all of you guys doing there?! And who are they?" Rhoanne showed up with a cart full of meat and beer.

"Don't look at me like that, Boss! I also have money, you know!" said Rhoanne.

"If it's alcohol you want, You might want to take a look at this Rhoanne." Nico pointed at Green colored bottle on the Pick of the Weel Aisle.

"More Alcohol?! Where? Woah?! Boss! Please loan me a few gold coins, I'll pay you back as soon as possible!" Rhoanne was mesmerized at the beautiful engravings on the green-colored bottle. She couldn't understand some parts of its written description, but the thing that got her excited was the sentence that mentioned it's alcoholic content.

A little while later, the other children have shown up in the grocery store as well.

"Agh! No Fair! You guys are hogging all the fun again!" said Gretel.

"Aren't you supposed to be in your bed, young lady?!" said Sarah.

"Urk..."---- Gretel, started sweating buckets once more.

"But Ms. Sarah, we got worried that you weren't back yet, even after the ground shook! So we thought you guys were in trouble so we went here right away!" said Griffin.

"CLANG!"

Cindy hit Gus on his helmet with her hand. "Stupid! I was really, really scared! Where were you?!

I hate it when the Ground shakes! I definitely hate it! I thought another army is attacking us again! They... they killed Dad!" *hic* *sob* Cindy started crying. He realized that the tremors have somehow triggered her trauma of losing her father.

"I'll protect you, Little Cindy. You have my word that no harm will come to you. I will die before they touch a single hair on your head." Said Gus.

"CLANG! CLANG!"

Cindy hit Gus on his helmet even harder.

"Idiot! That's even worse! I... I don't want to lose another father! Ahh!..." Cindy gasped and turned red with embarra.s.sment when the word father came out of her mouth.

"Little Cindy..." Gus hugged the embarra.s.sed Cindy while she cried.

"Everyone! Go around and Grab anything you want! Our Dear Father will pay for everything!" said the teary-eyed Gretel.

"Gretel... did you just call him Father?" asked Sarah.

"What? It's not only Cindy and Little Sage who wanted to call him Father! Right, Everyone?!"

"YEAHHHH!"--shouted the children.

"What are you guys waiting for! Go and get anything you want!" commanded Gretel while pointing her finger up in the air. Everyone gave a salute before scurrying away. Their eyes were sharp as hawks! They kept an eye on things they like to buy in the Grocery.

"I'll make lots of chips and fries with these potatoes!"---

"I'll have Papa make me more creampuffs!"---

"Flan! Flan! Oh! Sweet Caramel Flan!"---

The children have all scattered and wandered the grocery store. Being the Elder sister that she is, Gretel also wanted to give Cindy and Gus a little bit of time together. So, she grabbed Ms. Sarah's arm and pulled her in another direction. Nico and Rhoanne noticed Gretel's intentions and simply walked away to wander the grocery store as well.

Upon understanding Gretel's kind intentions, he rewarded her and everybody by spending 2 skill points in his BARTER skill.
