"A hostile Living Armor! Just avoid it! These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds will break down the door anytime!" The bald adventurer named Rud shouted.
"Agh! All for nothing! What a waste of time! GALE WIND!!! " The furious Betty cast a spell on Gus and it knocked him down.
at the same time, the party blazed out of the room! Gus watched them fade into the darkness of the castle corridors.
BANG! BAM! BAs.h.!.+
the rotten doors blew open and a flood of rats flooded in like raging water! They rushed towards the adventurers who fled.
Gus already had a gut feeling that something was off. It is now clear that the rats are ignoring him. but why?
"Now is not the best time to think about it. I'm sure those adventurers will leave this castle, so all I have to do is follow the mess those rats left behind!"
He got back up and looked around a bit more. Gus
made sure that he looted the kitchen properly. He opened his status function and took a peek at his inventory
Inventory:
Saute pan Large
Saute pan Medium
Sauce Pot medium 2x
Invalid (unidentified)
Cleaver x 1
Butcher's knife x1
"What's this?" Gus wondered about the invalid item.
He thought he must have picked up something he was not sure of in the kitchen while all the ruckus was going on.
Gus tried to pull it out of his s.p.a.cial inventory but it's not there! He decided to ignore it for now as he continued to follow the path which the rats left behind.
Along the way, he picked up 12 copper coins on the ground that the adventurers dropped. Nothing else in the castle seems to have any value.
Gus finally saw the exit. The adventurers seem to have made it out safely a while ago.
Nearby the entrance, Gus saw an abandoned campsite. Must have belonged to the trio before venturing inside the castle walls.
Near the campfire, he saw 2 rabbit carca.s.ses hanging very high with its blood all drained out.

they have placed it there so stray animals can't reach it.
Looking at the rabbits made Gus hungry. He hasn't eaten anything since he first stepped into this new world.
This also gave him the opportunity to try the Barter skill the system gave him. As Gus remembered, he can only purchase b.u.t.ter for 5 copper and onions for 3 coppers.
"System! can you please identify the value of these coins?" asked Gus.
"Certainly dear user! you currently have 12 copper coins!" the system replied.
"I want to buy one b.u.t.ter and one onion!"
"Thank you for your purchase!" the system replied.
Gus was amazed as a small black hole appeared in front of him. A stick of b.u.t.ter came out along with a big piece of onion. But he was more amazed to see the quality of ingredients that was generated by the system. Gus is used to seeing fresh produce on a daily basis, but these are the highest quality he has ever seen! The b.u.t.ter's smell is more fragrant and more creamy as if it has a cake-like smell that still clings to your nose. As for the onion, he noticed that the smell is not as strong as the ones on earth. it has a semi-sweet pungent smell and really firm to the touch! the size is almost half of his head!
Looking back at the inventory, he has 7 copper left. the system automatically deducts the money as long as it's stored in his s.p.a.cial storage.
Near the campsite is a lake. Gus started to look for a nearby stone slab and started to cut the onions into thin strips as cooks call it the "julienne" cut and soaked it in water in another pot.
Gus used the spark from his sword and s.h.i.+eld and quickly made a small bonfire from the dried twigs he has gathered. into thin strips. After giving the medium pot a quick rinse, he tossed in the b.u.t.ter. As the b.u.t.ter melted in the pot, an explosion of milky and creamy scent floated everywhere! its as if someone was baking a cake nearby! Once the b.u.t.ter turned liquid in the pot, the skilled cook Gus immediately added the soaked onion strips. He lightly cooked the onions and waited for the strips to transform into somewhat soft and translucent. as the onions slowly soften, a different wave of aroma suddenly filled the air! the mellow b.u.t.tery scent transformed in something savory!
"My Goodness! If these ingredients existed on earth, I would understand if they can sell this double its original price! maybe even a bit more!"
As Gus waited for the onions to soften up over the low and slow flame, he asked the system about the currency of this world. It turned out that the conversion is simple.
10 coppers = 1 silver coin
10 silvers = 1 gold coin
10 gold coins = 1 plats
The next thing that happened almost gave Gus a heart attack! His helmet's face guard suddenly opened. A head of a long silver-haired girl popped out!
