Robert sighed but did not bother to get angry but he made a mental note to give clear instructions from now on.
When the soup started boiling he began to add meat to it. Pork shoulder, Pork belly, leg of the deer, brisket, short rib etc.
They have a variety of meats and funniest but they only lack veggies and sauce to complete this hot pot. He remembered to find more vegetables.
But with just five people how many vegetables can be found? Thinking of this Robert fell into deep thought.
He only snapped out of the thought when he smelled an alluring fragrance coming from the pot.
Hot Pot is ready!
Meat has been cooked perfectly and their texture is great. He looked behind and was startled. He saw White Fang along with Snowball standing behind him with saliva flowing from the corner of their mouth.
It's just not the others so we're looking at the pot with a hungry gaze. All of them have never smelled something like this. And for some reason, they felt a huge attraction to the thing inside the pot.
Robert smiled and said, "Go and bring the big bowls we have prepared before."
Previously before opening the restaurant he considered the fact that various creatures could use spoons, knives etc.
Thus he prepared a big bowl for them so that they can eat without spoons.
"Okay wait a minute! Don't start eating before I come back.." White Fang ran away in a hurry along with Snowball.
After just ten seconds both of them appeared out of thin air along with thirty or so bowls. Everyone looked at her with mouth agape thinking how she appeared suddenly but they tactfully did not ask about this knowing too much is not a good thing.
"Ahem because of our negligence everyone suffered today so to compensate you we present a free Hot Pot banquet made with premium ingredients. Hope you like it." Robert was not used to giving out speeches like this but he still decided to say something.
"Yay!' Out of all the people, only White Fang and Snowball cheered. Except for that everyone was confused not knowing how to respond. After all, they are used to the law of the jungle and they do not know how to respond to this.
"Everyone comes here with your bowl, I will fill it for you." Seeing that everyone did not respond much to his speech he was embarrassed and changed the subject.
First, one to the line up of course was White Fang and Snowball after her we're others who followed their examples and took bowls from the bowl distributor-Slither.
"What do you want?" Robert asked White Fang. Seeing her contemplative look he said, "You can take seconds."
"Umm, give me an egg, Some pork ribs, mushrooms, and carrots." Hearing that there are seconds White Fang said without hesitation.
Robert gave her a piece of the big egg along with pork rib and other meats. Then there was mushroom and sliced carrots. Lastly, he poured some soup into her bowl filling it completely.
"Next!" Robert said as he saw everyone's eagerness to look. Next came Snowball without him telling he placed carrot slices in his bowl along with soup and said, "Next!"
Snowball was left dumbfounded on the side, What do you mean? I am a rabbit does not mean I only eat carrots!
Even though he thought this he started eating the food given to him.
"What do you want?" Robert looked at Molly and asked. This guy helped a lot by doing the butchering job and he has a lightsaber too.
"Anything." Molly scratched his head in confusion and said.
Robert gave him different kinds of meat fungus, a large piece of egg and some carrots. And filled the bowl with soup.
"Next, What do you want?"
"Meat." The Wolf with two head replies. Seeing him Robert raised his eyebrows and filled his bowl with different types of meat and soup. They have enough meat so there is no fear of shortage.
"Next! What do you want ?"
"Do you have eyeballs?" Axel the transparent ghost said.
"...."
Robert was speechless hearing him, How could I know that you have such a strange taste? He was thinking this but he still added different types of eyeballs in the pot.
But he decided not to eat anything from this pot. He did not have the taste to eat eyeballs...
He told him to wait for them and he shouted, "Does anyone have some request like this? If so then speak up and it takes time to cook."
"Eggs!"
"Eyeballs! Especially that big ass pearl tortoise eyeball! If no one wants it, I'll take it!" It was Lucas who shouted. Seeing him no one wanted to compete with him for food.
"Intestine!..."
"Hoff's.. "
"Bones…"
.….
After Robert finished speaking one after another strange requests started coming making him dumbfounded. These beasts indeed have a strange taste…
Except for the eyeballs, other requests are at least a bit normal.
He put the ingredients according to their requests and finally stopped.
All the ingredients would get cooked in a while. He handed the job of food distribution to Molly who just finished eating.
Another thing is his aura has risen a lot although there is no breakthrough, it's not far from it.
Seeing that everything is fine Robert started to make his food. He took out a wooden stick and some slices of different meat. He pierced the meat with branches and spread salt over it and baked it on fire.
Although the ingredients used are simple they will taste good. Soon the smell of meat on the grill made him and people around him crave it.
He then casually cut them into pieces and put them on the big plate. "Let's eat."
Robert continued to book more as more foodies gathered around him. Soon the place was filled with the sound of eating and ordering food making the lonely Cloud peak extremely lively.
Everyone, we're enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. After all, they never got a chance to relax in this cruel place filled with competition.
Like this, the banquet came to a successful end and everyone were happy!
(Now base for the restaurant is built up so from next chapter main scenes will be described like building up the city and all will start now.)
