A Living Armour Owns A Tavern - Chapter 56 Pizza Palace Brigade

“System?! How could you impose such a big penalty in failing this mission? It would’ve been fine if you take back some of my skills or reduce my stats, but the memories of my Sister?!”

Gus was surprised that the System imposed such a huge forfeiture for failing the mission. After reading some of the fantasy books her Sister has, none of the other systems has asked for their host’s memories as reparation for failing a mission.

“User, I do not make these missions, I only act as a medium to convey the Fate’s wishes. I also represent as it’s Judge, and grant Rewards and Penalties dictated by it. Dear User, this mission is like no other. As I study your memories, this mission is like a Main Mission from a game. Only this time, you cannot fail a Main Mission, since there is no such thing as a LOAD QUICKSAVE function in this world.”

“You mean, a Restart button,” added Gus.
for visiting.

“At least this System is honest,” thought Gus. Whenever Fate comes up as a topic in their conversation, his questions would wander far off where he himself couldn’t understand the answer anymore.

“W..What is happening?!”—

“M..My Arm! Aghh!!!”—

“Father your… your chains its.. moving!”—

Gus was surprised by the voices that were coming from inside the caravan. As he looked inside, He almost coughed up blood as he saw a handful of characters who were not supposed to exist in this world. It seems that the chains on their body have transformed into an animatronic suit which they are now currently wearing.

“Your Kriss P. Bacon! and Chizz E. Mouse! Aren’t you… Biff Steak? And your Fry McChick! Oh… Bob is here too.”

Gus pointed his finger at them one by one as he called them by their names respectively.

“I am not Kriss P. Bacon you monster! I have a name, and it’s Vic…Kriss P. Bacon!”

Victor was surprised as he cannot utter his real name and he can only refer to himself as Kriss P. Bacon.

“Vic… Kriss P. Bacon! Kriss P. Bacon! Oink! Kriss P. Bacon!”

Victor tried with all his efforts to pronounce his name, and he failed each and every time he did. His Top hat would mechanically lift off from his head and spin around to further portray his frustration.

Kriss P. Bacon is one of the Animatronic friends of Fuzz E. Bear who lives in Pizza Palace. His Features were that of a bipedal pig with a realistic head. He sports a top hat and a tailcoat. However, the lower part of his body is naked like any other popular personified cartoon animal on TV. If he were human right now, the police would arrest him for indecency!

“You really are a Monster, are you?! Squeak! What did you do to us?!”

Daniel, a.k.a. Chiz E. Mouse, observed every nook and cranny of his body. Chiz E. Mouse is also an animatronic animal friend of Fuzz E. Bear who lived in Pizza Palace. The bipedal metallic mouse has a cartoonish head wearing a rainbow-colored beanie hat with a propeller on top. He sports a yellow shirt, layered with a red vest and a bow tie. At least his lower half wasn’t completely naked as the mouse is wearing clown shoes. Daniel was amazed and horrified at the same time from the changes to his body. Although his body became stocky due to the design of the animatronic creature, It’s an amazing feeling to be able to have full control of the animatronic creature, as every movement he does is not hindering his movements at all. It’s as if he is moving his own, real body.

The only disturbing fact with Chiz E. Mouse’s features is that it’s cross-eyed for some reason. The reason for this anomaly is mainly because of Gus’ memories. During his childhood, he did encounter a malfunctioning Chiz E. Mouse Animatronic on television, forcing the pupils of the mouse to split from one another.

‘Um, Mr. Mouse, Can you see how many fingers am I holding up?” asked Fuzz E. Bear Gus as he holds two of his stubby fingers in front of him.

“Two! W..why… what’s wrong? Why is everybody staring at me like that?!”

Everybody else also gave him a peculiar look. Even though he has a perfect twenty, twenty vision, Daniel is not aware of his cross-eyed condition, making him really awkward to look at.

Falkes Durnham, a.k.a. Biff Steak, noticed that there is something hidden in his leather jacket. The animatronic, bipedal cow pulled out an instrument he hasn’t seen before. He was holding on to a small acoustic guitar that came from Earth. As soon as he held the guitar with both of his hands, he immediately played a childish melody that nobody has ever heard of before. Falkes was shocked at the fact that he could play an instrument he has never seen or heard of before.

Biff Steak is also an animatronic character from Pizza Palace. His angry-eyed, cartoonish cow head sported a cowboy hat and a leather jacket. He has a cowbell on his neck, and cowboy boots on his feet. Even with hooves for a hand, he could still play the guitar like a pro.

Ben Durnham, a.k.a. Fry McChick, is one of Fuzz E. Bear’s friends who loved to Sing. The cartoonish bipedal chicken wears a red apron that says” PIZZA TIME!” with a big yellow font. He couldn’t help but sing after Biff Steak’s guitar playing.

***”What time is it? It’s pizza time! There’s always a moment, for pizza time! If you can’t make time then make time, cause its not a pizza party time with no pizza and no time!… I make no sense, who cares it’s pizza time! Cause there is always time for Pizza time…”***

Fry McChick suddenly pulled out a cartoonish microphone from the pockets of its apron and has started to sing along with Biff’s guitar playing. Gus remembered the lyrics being catchy and corny, since kids on Earth enjoyed those kinds of stuff. Even Gus himself couldn’t help but tap his feet as the music gets louder and livelier.

Suddenly, Mr. Murphy, a.k.a. Bob the pink-colored blob mascot pulled a saxophone out of nowhere and started to jazz up the music. Seeing Bob the blob as a child, Gus always wondered what kind of mascot he is. Is he the strawberry ice cream that the restaurant served? Is he supposed to be a colorful bunch of French fries meld together? Is he a pink piece of yam that the restaurant doesn’t even serve? Is he even the pink gum under the establishment’s table. No one knew the origins of the pink blob-like character. All they know is that he always plays the saxophone inside the Fuzz E. Bear’s Pizza Palace.

Not long after, Kriss P. Bacon pulled out his bongo set from under his coat and started to thump away at the beat of the music while Chiz E. Mouse pulled out a harmonica as they played along with the rest of the band. They were playing music as if a weird voodoo curse has been cast on these poor victims. As the band played their hearts out, Gus couldn’t help but remember the past and hum along with the rest of them.

“Oh, isn’t this the part where Fuzz E. Bear dances?” Fuzz E. Bear Gus suddenly danced by doing a tap dance, leaving the caravan steer for itself. With no one to steer the caravan, the horses steered the caravan to a rocky path which led the caravan to topple. The Mascots flew in the air while their instruments flew even higher.
