Chapter 588 Door Gifts

"First of all, it is our pleasure to welcome you all to the very first Christmas Feast! We apologise for the vague meeting details even though we've deemed it important. Boss Jin had to keep it under wraps so it would be a major surprise for everyone!" Qiu Yue announced.

"There will be a few activities for your amusements which will also allow some of you to earn extra System points for free! Think of them as mini games for this particular event." Lynn explained with a professional voice despite Qiu Yue being able to see her colleague shivering from her waist down. When the minions heard extra System Points, it started to make the minions chat loudly.

"But the Bellators are not allowed to join!" Qiu Yue added, and the loudest boo surprisingly came from Peppers and subsequently Kiyu. Pei had to pull her back to her seat in order not to make too much of a ruckus. "Just joking. Don't worry, we aren't excluding you guys. Instead, the bellators will compete equally and we will all be able to watch them on the screen to make sure it is somewhat fair."

"Could it be a massive duel?" Tsu asked, and Kai smirked at that opinion.

"If there is one, I would love to compete against you once more," Kai replied, and Tsu's eyes turned to ones filled with senseless anticipation.

"However, before you start with the feast, Jin here has some things to tell you." Lynn pointed to the side as they let the panda cultivator take the stage wearing a fake beard and dragging a large haversack behind him.

"Thank you, Qiu Yue and Lynn. I wanted to surprise everyone, but I realised I could not have done it without their help. So please give them a round of applause!" Jin said at the podium, and a loud series of applause soon followed throughout the open fields.

"Just like the two Sub System Users, I could have never reached where I am now without all of you here. So, this particular Grand Feast has been prepared for all of you as a token of my appreciation towards each and every one of you. The three of us took great pains to make this all possible, so after this speech, please eat to your heart content!" Jin continued, and the monsters roared into another series of applause.

"The food was painstakingly prepared by Lynn and her penguins who just until a moment ago were still cooking extra in case the current food that we have prepared would not be enough. So you guys better eat until you drop or I will never forgive all of you for wasting the penguin's work!" Jin 'threatened' loudly and cheers erupted for the penguins from the other minions.

"It's Lynn's cooking! The peggies too! No wonder the food smells so good! Master, please hurry and let us eat now!" One of the Orcs shouted out loud, and the rest resonated with him. Usually, such actions would displease Black Disaster Nubwort but seeing how Jin did not take any offence at that, relaxed his stance just for this event. He knew that even at times, he needed to have some fun.

"Ah..fun, been a long time since I could even think of that." Nubwort curled his lips and realised how fortunate it was to be in Jin's care. Not only was he allowed to help build up a city from scratch, but the Goblin Raid Instance was also a great way to fight with some worthy opponents even though most of the time they were not his match.

"Sure sure, I shall hurry it up, but I assure you what I say next will bring more pleasure to all of you as a whole compared to the amazing food right in front of you guys. Besides, they will all still be piping hot with the System's powers so bear with me for another few minutes!" Jin laughed as he too got excited by the news he had been withholding for a long time.

"But first, I would like to welcome a few new…additions into our ranks." Jin started and coinciding with him the System dimmed the lights and shone a spotlight on their newest members. The first being welcomed was the new Mousefolks who were under Qiu Yue's contract and werejackals like Silver. Subsequently, Jin touched on the Dark Templars, Hamatarou, Weslie, her Demons, the Farming Humans and even Rei.

"I am sorry that I could not be there to get acquainted with all of you yet and even missed the chance to introduce myself as I had been really busy with my other work. But rest assured you guys are not forgotten at all. As ironic and iconic, a warm welcome to this extended family of yours." Jin said, and the clapping was less fevering, probably as a sign of respect.

"Lastly, you all have just heard from Kiyu about the origins of Christmas. So I am hoping to establish this tradition, in hopes that you guys will also do the same with your comrades in the future. Today let me start by declaring that I have prepared presents for almost everyone…if not all of you guys! I hope they will be to your liking." Jin smiled as he placed his haversack down.

"Robot Crawlers, I might need your help on this if you could come on stage for me," Jin asked as he dragged the enormous haversack towards the centre and the Robot Crawlers that were coming out from the Robotic Arachnid obeyed Jin's orders. The Titan Knight, who was at the other side of the field with Shu and the Arachnid, used his Colossus Sword like a sky bridge for the Robot Crawlers to scurry towards the stage and not disrupt the crowd too much.

It was the welcome door gift for each and every minion to date, including Rei.

"This was made by Qiu Yue in secret. Let me tell you that she grumbled how difficult it was to create them all without any of you catching wind of it and make sure they were all up to quality." The Robot Crawlers indiscriminately picked the door gift and went frenzy with the delivery methods. (Meanwhile, Qiu Yue threw her mike at Jin like slapstick comedy before a robot crawler picked it up and returned it to her.)

When they received the welcome gift, they noticed it was a 54mm miniature model (up to 20cm depending on their respective size) with them posing to do what they had been doing. The Engineering Section, for example, had customised miniatures that if placed down properly, it would create one perfect picture of their typical workday.

The same was true for every group.

Sandy thought that she did not have any friends since no one originated from her World. But little did she know that her model was actually a part with the Orcs and Goblins from the materials department. Her help was essential and efficient in making high strength concrete that could reach up to 80,000 psi (550 MPa) at a fairly cheap cost.

From the age of sticks and stones, the orcs and goblins never knew that they could see something this amazing for construction. Even for Jin and Qiu Yue, they nearly fainted that it was even possible to create such a super strength material. The latter even joked she should sell it to the government and they could guarantee that the word invulnerable is indeed possible.

Everyone was satisfied with the door gift, and they figured they could keep it as a memorial. Yet, this was not the end of the Christmas giving session.

Jin had more surprises for them and the next was certain to change the way they lived.
