"If what?" Greenwood asked. "Do I have to remind you that you were DESIGNED to work for ? You're rely a byproduct of my own research. If you must sacrifice your lives for my projects and the greater cause, so be it! You're all working for the great Oberon, show so respect!"
"Y-Yes, Master. I apologize for my selfishness…" The elf lowered his head.
"Hmph, scram. And the next ti you call , you better have sothing good to report." Greenwood's sharp green eyes glared at the elf in front of him, as he nodded and then stopped the call.
Greenwood looked at his left side, as he saw several small droids moving around, constructing a humanoid body in front of him, a powerful, stronger, and more reinforced one than any other before.
"Hmm, the next prototype might soon end its creation process." He said with a smile. "That dragon… I shall take him down personally if necessary. I cannot miss acquiring the ability of Immortality, if that's what he truly possess… Chaos, Immortality… the last two pieces I need for Oberon's masterplan to be accomplished…"
Greenwood was rely a fragnt of Oberon, but it was also the one that inherited his will the best, and most of his cold and calculative personality, which made of Greenwood the most effective of all of Oberon's Soul Fragnts. Obviously, he wanted his original true self's plans to succeed.
"This Alliance with the Venerable of Blood might be necessary to accomplish further goals, but I don't mind it for now…" He said. "I am sure Oberon would had done the sa, after all, I am a part of him."

(Drake's POV)
Eustace (which second na was actually Gustav), the wild boar beast-kin, and Guild Master of the Chef Guild appeared right in front of ! He had already rushed all the way here after tasting the delicious food those suspicious Elves were serving and now he has co to see .
"Drake! I am glad to see your business is going well, I have co to personally taste your dishes once more!" He said.
The mont of truth has co… after he's done with this, there'll be so more ti for all of us to sell as much as possible and then a final contest where we'll battle with everything we've got to convince the judges. I've never felt so nervous in my life in a non-combat scenario aside from when Benladra was born!
I believe that this is the last step before I go to the very last stages of the Competition. I really want to leave this place with a smile in my face as I get all the reward prizes I want. If possible, I want to see my daughters seeing their father win sothing.
"Welco Eustace!" I said, quickly offering him a drink of the beer I had brought exclusively for this, the beer that I drank last night with the Dragons inside the Draconic Records. "Have this beer to start with, I call it Dragon Beer."
"Dragon Beer?" Wondered Eustace, giving it a sip, his eyes opened wide in shock. "T-This incredibly rich taste! And are these bubbles?! There are bubbles inside of my mouth!"
"The beer has carbonated water, it has bubbles and feels just nice when you drink it, right?" I asked, as Eustace nodded. "Now, let's start the dishes! Benladann, can you help ?"
"Sure dear. Hello, are you the guild master of the chef guild?" Asked Benladann, bringing a plate full of fried treats.
"Y-Yeah, are you an acquainted of him?" He wondered.
"I am his wife. Those two girls are Drake's daughters. And those two are my parents, all the family's here." Said Benladann. "Here, Drake has prepared so of his products in here. Fried Tempura Shrimps, Fried Flying Squid Rings, Curry Buns, and many other things. They all go perfectly well with Beer." Benladann said with a smile, as the wild boar-faced man began to snack on everything.
"Oooh! This is certainly surprising, what a beautiful sight to see an entire family working together here." Said Eustace, as he quickly decided to begin eating.
He tasted everything as his eyes grew wider each ti he ate sothing new, combining it with the carbonated beer really made the wild boar man grow insane over the flavors and tastes.
"I-I've never eaten such delicious food before- Ah well, that last stand was just as good but these are all new things, I am getting surprised each ti! These buns are especially good, they got that curry he served back then!" Eustace ended eating everything in the nu several tis until he looked to be finally done.
"Hahh… I am done for now. Everything was stupendous." He said, quickly walking towards . "Here."
He suddenly gave a golden card.
"You pass to the next stage easily, sir Drake!" He said with a smile, giving a handshake. "I hope you surprise us everyone at the finals! Good luck!"
He quickly ran off into another food post, quickly beginning to taste sothing new. Did this guy had an endless pit of a stomach or sothing? Like seriously…
"Well, we got it!" I said, celebrating as I raised the golden card.
"Woo! Papa's besht!" Said Benladra, snacking on fried shrimps.
"Wawa besh…" Said Kate, trying to imitate her big sister.
"Well done Drake!" Benladann's mother said.
"You worked so hard that you deserve it." Her father said.
"Nice, that was already a given though." Laughed Miranda.
"Yeah, I could see it miles away." Benladann celebrated.
"So when are the finals starting?" Asked Miranda.
"In about two hours from now?" I said, looking at the clock of the town. "Yeah, two hours from now. For now we need to continue selling if possible to make as much profit as we can, each cent will go into the chances of winning, so we have not won this yet! Alright family, let's do our best!"
"YEEAAH!"
With my family, we all cheered together as we continued working, cooking, selling, and taking small breaks as everyone took turns into working in certain things.
Like this, ti went by, as an hour and a half passed in almost an instant.
