" Well then, let's get to the point. Actually, I want to make a small restaurant near the orphanage. The orphanage right now was fully sustained by myself, but I know that it was not a proper solution. So..."

" Hm.. I get it. Well, it's not a big problem. Even though I am not that experienced in the restaurant industry, I still have my connection. But!"

" Yeah, sure!"

Ray smiled as he heard Ellen's response. The two just exchanged slight eye contact. However, Ray knew what Ellen meant.

" Tomorrow, I'll be bringing the sample dish, and I guarantee you that you will definitely like it."

" Hehe, sure, I'll be waiting. By the way, Ellin's adoption procedure would be done soon, and it seems the time for you to become my bodyguard has come."

Ellen's words fell, and Ray was a bit startled. Because there were so many incidents happening recently, he was somewhat forgetful about the deal to be the bodyguard.

Ray frowned a bit as he was thinking about how to divide the time effectively.

Still, this didn't fall out of Ellen's perspective.

" Hehe, don't worry. Just from your last fight with that man bodyguard, I've known that you have ascended, and it would be wasteful for you to just become a bodyguard. How about this, you will only be my bodyguard in some event that I requested or when Ellin wants to meet you. That's not too much, isn't it?"

" Sure!"

Ray knew that Ellen's offer this time was very profitable to him, so he didn't have any thought to bargain anymore and immediately agreed.

" Good then. Nice to meet you, Mr. Captain bodyguard."

" Well, nice to meet you too, Ms. Ellen."

The two shook hands and continued to chat before Ray left. There were still many things to do, and Ray didn't want to waste Ellen's time.

Now that the matter regarding the restaurant had been temporarily solved, Ray returned to the Morningwood Dungeon.

After all, the success of the restaurant was dependent on the taste of the food, and without them, the restaurant was guaranteed to fail.

In the Morningwood Dungeon, Ray entered the crops room and started to harvest the already matured plants.

.

[ Spirit Cabbage.]

[ Golden Grape.]

[ Spirit Garlic.]

[ Spirit onion.]

[ Spirit rice.]

.

During the time when Ray was preparing to go to the Lawang Sewu Dungeon, he also had planted some other eatable crops in his Dungeon.

Most of them have been matured now and are ready to be harvested.

' *Sigh* Unfortunately, I still don't have any wine processing method now. Still, the ingredient was enough to make some egg fried rice or stir-fried vegetables.'

Ray harvested the plants and brought them to the simple kitchen in the Dungeon.

The Morningwood Dungeon had given him a simple medieval kitchen before. And even though it was far from the modern kitchen he usually used, it was enough for now.

His eyes looked at the ingredients on hand, and steps for making the dish immediately played in his mind.

' I still lack something like salt and oyster sauce. However, the initial flavor of the garlic onion and the spirit rice should pretty much cover it.'

With a swift movement, all the ingredients were prepped and were ready to be fried.

Ray put in the oil that was provided by the Dungeon kitchen and turned on the fire.

He waited for the oil to be sizzling hot before adding the already chopped garlic inside.

The first step to making a bowl of good fried rice was to saute the garlic perfectly.

*Sizzle*

The scent of the spirit garlic being stated filled the whole kitchen, and even the monsters were attracted by it.

' The heck was Ray cooking? It smelled so good!'

' Coop!' { Yup, yup, the Boss must be cooking for me!}

' Coop!' { Bah, dream on!}

' Hmm... Papa's food smell so good!'

As the cooking continued, all the monster was currently standing behind Ray, waiting for him to finish the dish.

But then the chickens suddenly saw something that made them shudder.

After finished sauteing the garlic, Ray took out the eggs they have produced and put it into the pan.

' Coop!' { The Boss wouldn't want to cook us right!}

' Coop-Coop!' { Hisss, I feel my body is tingling right now. But I couldn't reject the good smell..}

The final and the most crucial step to make an egg fried rice was to add the rice.

Ray checked the rice and saw that it was already cooked. He put it into the pan with the stated garlic and egg.

Actually, the rice would taste better if it was to be left outside for a night. Still, Ray didn't have the time and just wanted to make some try-out, so it was sufficient for now.

Ray continued to fry the rice for a while, and after putting some scallion as a garnish, the egg-fried rice was finally done.

" It wasn't much!"

With the egg-fried rice being done, Ray impersonated the word of one of the most popular cooking anime ever, only to get ashamed when he saw the other monsters were looking at him.

" *Cough-Cough* What are you guys doing here?"

Ray's words woke up all the Monsters. Their saliva fell down as their eyes were fully focused on the egg-fried rice, and now their gaze was full of desire.

' Coop!' {Boss, please give me one. You are the best Boss in the universe!'}

' Coop-Coop!' { Ou, the best Boss in heaven, you are so handsome, and no one could be compared to you. Now can you give us some of the egg-fried rice?}

The chickens started to be licking dogs, which made Ray want to complain.

' Are you guys chickens or dogs?'

Still, when he was about to reject all of them, Ray suddenly felt a small hand was tugging his leg.

" Papa, can you give Bintang some? Bintang want to taste Papa's craft!"

*Critical hit -500*

Looking at Bintang, Ray felt like he was struck by a critical hit.

Bintang's beautiful starry eyes, combined with her cute face was super effective, and Ray couldn't help but want to bring her into his arm.

" Sure, Papa will give Bintang anything Bintang wants."

" Hehe, Papa is the best!"

This scene might look cute and warm to the outsider. However, when it was watched by the monsters, they suddenly felt immense jealousy in their heart.

" Coop!" {Boss, unfair, we also want the fried rice!}

" Yeah, Ray, have you forgotten about your first comrade?"

The monster started to enter a protest, but when Ray shifted his attention at them, the monsters instantly turned silent.

" You chickens, don't you know that this egg-fried rice was made with your egg? Do you guys want to be canibal? *Sigh* I never thought that you guys were this barbaric!"

Ray's words instantly silenced the chickens. They wanted to protest, but they didn't know what to say.

" Coop!" { this..}

On the other hand, Freed was looking at the chicken full of excitement. This meant that his part would be larger.

But Freed's excitement immediately turned off with ray's next sentence.

" Freed, you are my first comrade, and you know that I really cherished you. However, don't you see that your little sister here is so small and still needs some nutrition? Do you have the heart to take the food from your precious little sister here?"

" .... "

Freed felt like his words were stuck in his throat. He really wanted the egg-fried rice, but when he looked at Bintang's teary eyes, he knew that he got no chance.

The monsters left dejectedly as they didn't get the egg-fried rice. They cursed inwardly and could only blame their own self to not being as cute as Bintang.

" Well then, the disturbance has been gone. Now let's enjoy our egg-fried rice."

Ray patted Bintang's head and brought her to the dining table.

The two enjoyed the egg-fried rice like father and daughter, and the scene was very warm to watch.

Yeah... warm with the jealousy of the monsters.

. . . . . .

In the other parts of the world, society was still in shock with the sudden arrival of the PVP System.

The ranking system was spoiled a month ago, so there was no big surprise.

But for the PvP, it has really creat a big disturbance in the world.

- United States of America -

" So, how is it? Do we have any precautions for this event?"

Inside the big meeting hall in the congress house, several big figures were discussing what to do with the ranking system.

" Don't worry Mr. President. I have contacted many of our strongest awakeners and told them to occupy the highest ranking in the PvP Ranking. Still, I never thought that England would be hiding so deep. That SwordofCamelot, he must be a hidden descendant of King Arthur."

" Hmm, that's good then. And regarding that SwordofCamelot, we don't have to be worried about him. There was some indication that SwordofCamelot was actually in conflict with the England Government. I don't think after all this time hiding his strength, the SwordofCamelot would appear just because of this PvP system."

The other members of the congress looked at each other and nodded.

Other than opportunities, this PvP System also brought danger to it.

It would reveal the face and identity of the top ranking, and it would be counterproductive if they still want to hide.

Being a high-ranked awakener was not easy.. Other than dealing with the fans and hectic schedule, you would also need to handle many attempts of assassination and threats to your family, which somehow made many of the high-ranked awakeners want to hide their identity from the public.
