Chapter 416 - Giving Meat To All
For the entire day Arthur kept making sauce and delivering it to his villagers. The gigantic meat was now easily cut by the upgraded version of his warriors.
The piece that would take weeks to finish almost had more than half been cut already. Arthur had to ask his system to bring more villagers here to help in the work, while making the older ones their supervisors.
This part of the garden turned to be a giant kitchen where piles of meat started to be cooked and placed neatly on special zones until Arthur came in and stored them all.
"Is he finished?" At the end of the day Arthur still had his mind fixed upon Agnus. "Has he made the spear?"
\'Ding! He had a problem and now is trying to solve it.\'
"What problem?"
\'Ding! Dunno but he suddenly stopped working and started drawing blueprints about the spear,\' the system said before adding, \'Ding! Each time he drew something, it seemed he wasn\'t quite content with it. So his trash corner is now filled up with those failed drawings.\'
Arthur thought for a minute before saying: "I hope he makes me a good spear."
\'Ding! I bet he will.\'
"Now back to work," Arthur took the cauldron back to his villagers and filled some empty tanks before glancing over the corner of the cooked meat.
"By this rate, we might not need a week to finish," he muttered.
\'Ding! I think they\'ll finish in a week, but your sauce task can end in two days more.\'
"I hope so," he smiled before adding, "I stored all the meat in a place inside the central part of the garden. You can start distributing them."
\'Ding! I told you, I\'m not your food delivery system!!\'
"C\'mon, who else will do such a task but you?" Arthur smiled before laughing, "you are my partner in the crime after all."
\'Ding! Tsk, delivering food isn\'t considered a crime at all!\'
"It\'s your mission, and execute it the way you like," Arthur said, ending the debate about this issue, "I\'ll keep making the sauce and you have to deal with those meat."
\'Ding! Sigh, alright I\'ll assign some to come and distribute the meat. Where do you want to spread them first? Your villagers or warriors?\'
"Warriors first," Arthur said before adding, "then spend the rest over my villagers."
\'Ding! Good choice.\'
Arthur then spent the rest of the day and the other day making soup. His villagers became quite immersed in cooking the meat that he didn\'t wish to see them stop.
"Tsk, it\'s bad I have only this piece of meat right now," he shook his head when he noticed his warriors had finished cutting all the meat into smaller pieces.
\'Ding! There are more, but do you need more?\' the system asked before adding, \'Ding! I believe this amount is enough to cover up your whole warriors and a good part of the villagers.\'
Arthur thought for a moment there before saying: "Bring one more piece, this meat was supposed to be enough for me and my team. I need more of it."
\'Ding! As you wish, it\'s your meat after all.\'
The next moment another piece appeared in place of the first one and this one was slightly bigger than the first. "Go and cut this as well," Arthur shouted at his warriors who just laughed and went to cut the meat.
For them this was considered as a fun sport.
This added a couple more days for Arthur who worked diligently to finish his part. As for the new meat, they were cooked instantly with the army of cooks he created here and the system kept delivering them to his large population.
\'Ding! All villagers got their shares except those cooks over here,\' the system said before adding, \'Ding! The extra meat is left in place for further use.
Arthur glanced at the meat which had more than two thirds untouched so far. "This is better than I thought," he laughed before adding, "spread the word, make those strong and eager to volunteer to make local armies and dispatch part of the warriors to aid in their training."
\'Ding! Do you plan to turn them all into warriors? They are all strong and eager!\'
"Hehehe, if this is the case then yeah, why not?" He laughed before adding, "if I have the choice and time, I\'d prefer to make every single one of them couple with one monster at least."
He paused all of sudden before adding, "my main team didn\'t have their pets upgraded after all this time. I should find some nice monsters for them."
\'Ding! And for you.\'
"I\'m considered a monster myself," he laughed, before adding, "and I have my little spider queen."
\'Ding! You saw your masters, each one has over a hundred pets following them around! You should learn and gather more monsters,\' the system said before seriously adding, \'Ding! You also need to find strong monsters to absorb their powers.
After all you have this free chance to upgrade your level a couple of times before other dragonair masters sniff what happened to their peers and come to retaliate.\'
Arthur had some fear towards what the system just said. "I thought they were all dead on the hands of that vengeful lady."
\'Ding! The ancient world\'s will? No, she only killed those responsible for the test, and those who attended it. As for the rest of your clan, she couldn\'t touch them.\'
"Tsk, that\'s a regret."
\'Ding! It\'s and it\'s not. If she killed them all, then how come their lineage was passed down to you? Huh?\'
"Makes sense," Arthur nodded before hurrying to say, "alright, pressing issues first. Let\'s get this soup done first. I think I need one more day to finish."
It took him less than a day to finish his task. When he did, the first thing he asked about was Agnus, yet this genius blacksmith was still immersed in his dilemma.
"Sigh, I hope he can figure it out soon," he muttered before adding, "or perhaps I might need to give him a little help and introduce him to Slone."
