Chapter 256: The News About the Exhibition Games! (1/2)

As Pedro took a bite of his gravy-filled fried chicken, he can't help but be teary-eyed as his mouth started to water like a hungry wolf. Then, in the next second, he wolfs down his food without leaving a single grain of garlic rice left on his plate.

”Take it easy, cousin Peds! We brought four buckets of fried chicken! I know that you missed these kinds of foods, but slow down a little bit, will you? It's not like were soldiers undergoing training, so take your time in enjoying the foods we brought, okay?” Weyron said with a smirk on his face.

At this moment, Pedro drank his water to avoid choking from the food that he gulped down in just a matter of minutes. Then, when he calmed down, he said, ”You can't blame me, Wey! I've been eating roasted—if not raw, meat for more than a month.”

Weyron simply scoffed in response and said, ”Speaking of which… Why aren't there fried chicken and stuff inside the game? I mean… Even the ones sold in the Adventurer's Guild's Market were considered premium-grade food by the NPCs—considering the fact that they are just mostly roasted or stewed with some vegetables… No wonder you got fed up eating the same food over and over again.”

Pedro could only rub the back of his head and said, ”Cooking itself was a difficult skill or ability to master. Nowadays, it might seem easy because of the internet and stuff… You can just search what kind of dish you want to cook and it would just automatically give you the 'tested' recipes of different people. However… In ancient times, similar to the environment of the game, cooking is mostly learned through the idea of apprenticeship. And only after being able to cook numerous times would they be able to master cooking a dish! Thus, the concept of variance in the taste and availability of food is not profound.”

”I see…” Weyron nodded his head in response. At that moment, he was on deep thought—processing the information that Pedro revealed. And it was only after a few seconds, was Weyron able to notice the smirk on Pedro's face as if Pedro had something mischievous in mind.

That said, Pedro did not need to tell Weyron what it was. Weyron kept thinking repeatedly about what Pedro just said until he thought of something that would be able to make Pedro smirk like that. Weyron smirked in response and said, ”Perhaps… Cousin Peds… Are you planning to modernize the cooking methods inside the game??? Don't tell me that the Adventurer's Guild has a role to play in it?”

”What do you think, Wey?” Pedro asked with a mischievous smirk. Then, he added, saying, ”Have you forgotten how food affected the world in the past?”

Weyron simply took a sip of his soft drinks in response before saying, ”Only in the past? Even now, cousin Peds! Food greatly affects the world! Remember how fast-food restaurants were able to dominate the world? Should we also do it in the game?”

Pedro simply shook his head in response and said, ”We can't do it for now. We are already short of hands and we even dare to expand our ventures in the game in other ways. We would fall sooner or later if we became too greedy! Let's settle on what we can do first. Then, we can proceed with such things later on.”

”A trump card then…” Weyron murmured in response as he took another sip of his soft drinks.

Pedro simply smiled in response and said, ”I guess… You can put it that way.”

Weyron simply forced out a smile in response and said, ”For some reason… I think that I am now afraid of how genius my cousin might be!”

”Genius?” Pedro chuckled in response. Then, he drank his water before saying, ”I'm not a genius! I'm just a lucky guy with lots of great ideas! Besides… Such ideas would have been trash if I did not have the capability to turn them into actions. So… I am definitely just a lucky man than a genius.”

”Yeah! Yeah! Whatever! Tell that to the dogs, they might even believe you say that!” Weyron in a mocking manner as he took another piece of fried chicken. At the same time, since Pedro had also finished his second piece of fried chicken, Weyron glanced towards Pedro and asked, ”Do you want another chicken?”
