"Take me to my cooking area!" Rake instructed the system. He thought that he would be teleported away like what he imagined and indeed he got what he wished for.

"Affirmative, host." Rake had a slight sense of nausea before his feet landed once more on solid ground. But the area around him had changed completely.

​​

This was a chef's dream working place as every piece of cooking equipment, small and big, was laid bare before Rake's eyes.

The entire scene was spacious enough for hundreds of persons to occupy and cook at the same time but the sole occupant had this luxurious cooking domain all for himself.

"Give me the ingredients." Rake instructed and couldn't wait for him to earn those valuable shop points back.

"THUD!" a single sound and Rake got the peanuts, salt, and seasoning.

Though he was not an expert on peanuts but determined at first glance that these were different from what he was used to seeing.

They were larger than the normal ones and the coat of the shells was emerald colored.

A quick scour in his treasure trove of newly added knowledge and he got what he needed. This were longevity peanuts that only grow in the Realms of Altfields.

It was an enchanted item that was vied by venerable cultivators who were already close to death's door. A single piece could turn the hands of time for one year.

"What a godly item!" Rake mused and thought about the possibilities of his business.

With this, he doubted that it would take him much time in order to let his restaurant be known to all parts of this world. Rake wasted no more breath and began cooking the peanuts.

He used a huge resplendent pot and waited for five hours in static patience.

This may have been difficult to do during his previous self but the moment he was baptized with the identity of a master chef, Rake had also embodied the skills and honestly for cooking that befitted that of his acquired persona.

He felt no boredom at all and was content on whistling a tune from his past world.

"Hmmm... About time." Rake smiled and opened the container.

The peanuts shrunk in size and retained the ordinary guise of peanuts that was very much familiar to his eyes. Nobody could have guessed by now its difference compared to its earlier substance.

Not even determine that these were legendary peanuts that can only be found in myths. The food stock was certainly not present in this realm. Rake had confirmed it with the system.

This was an imported product and he anticipated its sky high price.

"How much does this peanut sell?"

"This quality of this food source is top notch, host. The standard price for it is about one chaos stone a piece. Anymore below and you would be selling it at a loss.

But since this will be the first item of the menu of the Ultimate Cooking System, it will be sold at a discounted amount in order to invite customers in for the next of your services."

"A chaos stone, huh?" Rake remembered about the currency in this world and queried some more.

"Can it be traded in coins?"

"Affirmative, host."

"How much?"

"A thousand gold coins, host."

"Good. Time to get me some cash!"

"Okay everyone gather up!" Rake instructed the moment he reappeared in front of his team.

A hundred an one pair of feet quickly followed his call and before long, all of them lined up according to their status.

In front of the crowd was Lilith and a step behind her was of course, Ivory.

The rest of the team who wore a collection of mish mashed garments was content on staying concealed behind the shadows of the two women who were much stronger than they were.

All of them wished that they may never be the first victim of their strange master and decided to stay as unsavory as possible.

Some crouched low while others deliberately tangled their hair up in order to appear ugly in the eyes of the lone man in their midst.

Rake who witnessed the wiles of these women could only shake his head in disbelief.

"Tonight shall be the opening of our business and i expect you to do your job. Smile and entertain customers. And always look your best."

"The fucker! He really wants us to do that. I bet the reason for it is because he would have a way out and tell us that we were the ones who seduced him in the first place. What a beast!"

"Shhhh... He might hear you. We don't want to get punished alongside you."

Murmurs resounded but even as they uttered complains in the dark, their hands were certainly not idling at all.

A quick comb here and there and a slight tap on their purposely rumpled dress and everything was as good as new. The ladies radiated beautifully under the bright lights and Rake was pleased by the result.

"They really are like his puppets." he was shocked by the realization once again. Could he hold his desires in and not take advantage of these lusty gorgeous goddesses?

That was the question that Rake battled every single breath that he took within the confines of this magnificent hall.

"Even their natural female scents are driving me wild already." he thought as he took a deep breath inside his lungs.

Desire flooded in his veins and it took him five seconds to regain control of his raging emotions.

Rake remembered his girlfriend Heaven and it gave him comfort in knowing that he was doing the right thing here and has not jumped at the delectable bones that was readily available for his taking.

"Lilith." he said after he too, arranged his majestic robe in a much tolerable fashion.

Seeing to it that the hard part of his body was nowhere evident to the keen eyes of the women. He didn't want to be branded as a pervert especially within his business domain.
