《Omni-System User》Chapter 10

The Restaurant is called ‘Flower Nova’ which is rapidly gaining fame as the head chef and owner only turned 24 this year and already earned three Michelin Star. There are even rumors that the organizers for the Michelin wanted to give out more stars. From the outside, the building looked normal enough outside the red carpet in the doorway. But once through the door, it was just breathtaking as Lefu, kept shifting his eyes everywhere.
There was soft and soothing music playing while a grand yet not over the top decoration dining hall was displayed. With table spread about with each far yet close enough to give everyone their space, however, fit maximum number in. Lining the wall were paintings ranging from scenery to household plants.
Taking the chance to look into the dining hall, Lefu saw that only a few were remaining while most were leaving. Following Camilla who took the lead, she walked up to the waiter who was waiting between the entrance and the dining room.
“Hello, can you please bring out the head chef for me,” Camilla politely asked the man, who instantly frowned when he heard her.
With a small shake of his head, he was about to say something before he was interrupted.
“Mrs. Camilla is that you, I haven’t seen you in six years outside the screen,” a man looking about twenty-five or so rush to greet you. He was reasonably tall as he was nearing Bill height but looked slim and was wearing a chef outfit.
“Boss, do you know her?” the waiter put on a fearful expression.
“She and her husband helped me in a dark time in the past when few ‘things’ happened and allowed me to open this restaurant,” the man stated with a cheerful expression as if he ascending to godhood.
“Kyle, do you mind if we have lunch here even if we don’t have a reservation?” Camilla asked him, who jump up in glee.
Nodding his head, he grabbed three menus and seating them himself, as he forgot about the waiter. Now with a bounce with his step, he leads them to the center of the room underneath the chandelier. After seating them he ran, leaving a trail of wind blowing up the tablecloths of the nearby tables, only to come back with an embarrassed expression.
“I forgot to ask what you wanted to drink,” He said while fumbling his fingers.
“Three Ice Teas will work,” Clare replied.
Popping up a thumb up, he left like the wind returning a few minutes later with three glass nearly filled the brim with ice. Rapidly Pouring in the tea the ice almost jumped out spilling across the table. After pouring their glass, he left again saying he will come back when they're ready to order.

Glancing over the menu, Lefu quickly decides on what he was going to have which is grilled steak with onions and a salad on the side. In the next few seconds Camilla also decides and choose to go with the Fried fish with salad on the side. And lastly, Clare decided to pick the same meal that Lefu chose and summoned over Kyle.
“Have you guys decided what you're going to order?” Kyle asked.
“These two want the steaks and onion with the salad on the side, while I want the Fried fish with salad, also can I get a refill,” Camilla ordered before either Clare and Lefu got a word out. Giving a big smile, he nodded before he rushed into the kitchen.
Lefu sat at the table in silent as he listens to Clare talking to her mother about whatever came to her mind while she seemed to forget his existents. He quickly grew bored and decided to log into his chat group where dead silent and promptly logged out.
Glancing at him Camilla must have seen he was bored and began questioning him.
“Lefu, what do you do as a hobby?” She asked.
“Martial arts training mostly, but I do enjoy reading from time to time,” Lefu replied.
“What are some of your favorite books?”
“Martial arts ones and I'm currently got hooked one and currently up to date on it,” Lefu simply replied.
“Really now,” Camilla answered strangely as she glances at her daughter who looked away with a hint of embarrassment.
“Yeah, I expressly like the MC who was thrown into the undercurrent of his world where monsters battle it out to claim the throne as the Immortal King. It also amazing how the MC went from a normal way of life to turn into a hybrid of werewolf and vampire and with his friend crush help him achieve the throne which hasn’t been taking in over thousand years.” Lefu said in excitement.
Clare flashing a quick smile as she listens to Lefu praise the book, as she was the one that wrote it. This was one of her secrets that only a few of the servant and parents know about this. She began writing after she got hooked on fantasy, but they weren’t giving her the satisfied want, so she decided to create her own.
After about twenty minutes went by in a flash as Lefu got absorbed into the topic, their food arrived. Turning silent, Lefu stared at his food as he saw the steak nicely cooked without a single burnt spot and with a slice it was fully cooked and not a single pink spot was seen. Cutting off a small piece he instant ate it and felt himself ascending, as the taste was terrific.

“It tastes normal to me, so why are you drooling?” Clare asked as she ate her own.
“Steaks are my second most favorite food, just ranking below Old Mino’s strawberries. So, if you can’t accept the greatness of steaks hand yours over,” Lefu stated in a passionate tone, while his fork headed to steals her.
Laughing at their little fork battle as Clare tries to defend against Lefu invasion she enjoyed the sight as Clare was smiling brightly. Silently sliding her phone out she sent a text to Kyle to videotape this as she wants to show her husband Clare smile which is a rare event for the last seven years. After about a minute the war of forks ended with Lefu being defeat as Clare manages to steal a quarter of his steak.
“I feel cheated,” Lefu grumbled as he ate his steak and water glace at his lost steak on the other plate.
“I won it fair a square, besides it's my spoils of war,” Clare grinned.
“You know your cute when you smile,” Lefu comment causing her to blush, leaving an opening which he took and grabbed his steak back.
“Enough you two, you can battle it out later but your food getting cold,” Camilla said, making Clare pouted as she glared at Lefu who was stuffing down his steak cheerfully. Noticing her watched, Camilla seen that they were here for nearly an hour. Summoning Kyle over, she got the bill to pay even when he kept saying they didn’t have too.
Quickly assembling back into the car, with Lefu taking the front seat next to bill, while Clare and Camilla chatted in the back. For the next forty minutes of the car ride, Lefu had to the backseat whisper and giggle nearly nonstop. When the car shifted into park mode after Lefu hopped out and stretched as the laughter never stopped for almost twenty minutes.
“We have almost a half hour, so let me give you guys the tours,” Camilla said while she took the front and began leading them around. She took them across different movie sets and training grounds for the stunt doubles. Lefu even manages to watch a fight scene with string attack, so the blows looked to have super strength.
The mini-tour soon ended as a time to get back to work quickly came. Upon entering the set, Lefu and Clare realized that they were among the last to arrive as everyone watched them stroll in. Glancing at the game, Lefu has seen that they already began filming another scene that didn’t require their presence. Quietly standing at the back Clare watched with interest, comparing herself to them.
Shifting his eyes between the scene and Clare, Lefu smiled as she seemed to enjoy being here even when she says she hates it. Of course, he doesn’t know the reason she hates the industry, but he could tell her opinion changing even if it is hidden behind a subzero layer of attitude.
“Why do you keep looking at me, and if you say ‘you’re cute’ I’m going to smack you,” Clare finally notice his eyes shifting.
“You are so eye-catching when you take an interest in analyzing their acting,” Lefu spoke, but her ice-cold look soften but still below zero it seems.
[Title Earned: Smooth Talker]
‘Huh, why did I earn such a title and what does it do?’ Lefu thought as small description pop up.
[Smooth Talker- increases your likeability when chatting to the opposite gender.
Requirements- Increase opinion of the opposite gender to friend level in under 12 hours of meeting total, have an awkward flirting moment with other presents.]
‘But I’m sure it been more than twelve hours,’ Lefu asked the system with a thought.
[Time: 6 hours, and 31 minutes. Time spent away doesn’t count.]
‘Somehow I feel ashamed to have the title,’ Lefu complained about inside, but quickly threw to the back of his mind completely forgetting about it. The director soon yelled cut as one of the actors stumbled over his lines and knocked over a flower pot by accident.
“Idiot,” Camilla laughed at her daughter comment when she received the praise. She nearly laughed harder looking at his expression as he was unsure why he was called an idiot. Camilla came to the conclusion that Lefu might be smart in other matter but if it involves relationships he clueless.
Approaching from the side, John who was supposed to be out for the week appeared with a man in suit and briefcase. He quickly made a B line straight to the director who only frowned as he neared and released small sighed as he smelled trouble brewing. When the man approached him, he opened his briefcase and took out a stack of papers.
“My client has reported a breach in contract and would like to have the money by the end of the week alongside being removed from the show,” the man stated, placing the papers in front of Director Keegan.
Raising an eyebrow, Keegan asked, “When did we breach the contract?”
Answering in a firm voice. “According to client statement and eyewitness, Director Keegan and Lefu Delano are responsible for the client’s injuries, now both are required to pay the client half million.”
“You guys will be hearing from our lawyer until then get out of my sight,” Director said in cold voice, as veins were visible as he held back his anger.
“Until later than,” John cheerfully walked away with his lawyer.

The Legion of Nothing
Nick Klein is your average high school geek--if you can still count as average when your grandfather is a retired superhero, and you've been trained in the martial arts by his friend, a mysterious, immortal mercenary. After his grandfather dies, Nick inherits the last version of the Rocket suit, powered armor that allows him to shrug off bullets, smash through walls, and manipulate sound. Along with it comes the base of his grandfather's superhero team including the team's jet and trophies from forty years of fighting criminals and aliens. Together, Nick and his friends, descendants of his grandfather's teammates, attempt to bring back a superhero team that was originally formed during World War 2. Along the way they'll face the normal problems of high school (bullies, homework, and dating), and the less normal problems like supervillians and mysteries leftover from their grandparents' past. As a story, it uses the conventions of all eras of comics from the 1940s on, ranging from serious to silly. If you're hoping for a grim and gritty story, this isn't it. The Legion of Nothing first debuted on my website legionofnothing.com in 2007. In that period it's updated more than 900 times, is still running, and has had millions of pageviews. The first two years have been released as an ebook, receiving good reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. I hope you'll enjoy it, and that you'll review it and comment.

Almighty Dung [Dropped]
Have you seen the future? I have not, nobody did, no one can. I see...have you heard of apotheosis' prophecy? What about it? Many didn't take it seriously, probably because nobody could crack its mysteries, but the indestructible prophecy rock has recently crumbled. It is a sign that things will change. ...What did the prophecy say? Sigh, you really don't know anything. There was a furnace drawn on the prophecy rock. There were three objects in it, named meaningless crown, black star and incomplete cross. When three signs appear the beast will awaken. Has the meaning been cracked? There are many hypothesis, but nothing concrete. The first object could have relation to king of some sorts, but in this vast universe there are many worlds, counties and kings. Who can really guess its meaning? It can also be metaphorical. What about black star? They say the second clue leads to eclipse, but this also says nothing. Third one? Cross is the symbol of divinity. The cracked cross might mean a lot of things, like person who wants to go against progenitor's ideas and laws and forcefully achieve divinity...It could also mean destruction of divinity, but something like that should be impossible... You're overthinking things. How could gods stay idle if someone is threatening their reign?Also, even if somebody is forcefully awakening, the gods will be alerted by commotion and won't let it succeed... Say, do you think that awakening beast is the one who will try to become one of us? Most likely. No, it's hard to say. The prophecy can't be that simple. This is nothing but wild guesses from our side. Alright, let's stop with depressing stuff. I found a nice place not too far from my domain constellation. Really? What's special about it? Nothing we've not seen before, except for a rare delicacy. They call it chocolate. Oh? Is it delicious? Yes, much better than slime candies you've been fond of. Are you free now? Of course! Then it's my treat. Be careful though, the sovereign over there is a bit low key, but very strong. You need to get to know world's customs first, we don't need extra trouble. No problem. We have nothing to do anyway, haha. What are we waiting for? Lead the way... Ark I - Invasion of thousand kingdoms (Chapter 1-???) Ark II - Nocturnal feast (Chapter ???-???) Ark III - False divinity (Chapter ???-???) Art by sandara on deviant art
