A Living Armour Owns A Tavern - Chapter 61 Honey Peanut Butter Banana Hokkaido Toas

“Queen Aoivah, I hate to bring up this topic, but the nectar will need some sort of payment. As a different kind of merchant, my magic consumes currency you see, so I hope you would understand,”

Gus bowed and decided to be honest with the Queen since he didn’t want to offend the fairy queen in any way.

“What do you desire, in exchange for the nectar?”

Queen Aoivah has already cleared her doubts of Gus since he already proved himself by presenting a priceless Item for the fairies which does not exist anymore. She was even prepared to part with some of the Village’s treasures just to obtain a bottle of that miraculous nectar. As a responsible cook and a restauranteur, Gus made it a point not to overcharge customers.

“The customer gets what they pay for, and more.”

These were wise words that were left to him by his Uncle Henry. As a rule of thumb, fast-moving restaurants such as fast food establishments, charge only twice the food cost. If it takes you One dollar to make a sandwich, then he would sell it for two dollars. But with slow-moving high-end restaurants, He would charge three times the food cost since it requires more money to cover its operational expenses. That being the case, Gus charged the fairy Queen only 30 silvers per bottle.

“You Cur!”—

“How dare you ask for Human Money in front of the Queen!”—

Queen Aoivah raised her hand in front of her irate guards and reprimanded them in front of their guests.

“Silence! If you ever put words in my mouth again, I will have you leave this room immediately!”

It was quite refreshing for Gus to see Queen Aoivah like this. It seems she made a good impression on Gus and his company as she displayed a great sense of leadership when she needs to.

After the fairy guards apologized to everybody, they returned to their usual post and remained silent throughout the rest of their meeting.

“I have lived long enough to tell if one is taking advantage of me or not. He speaks the truth, the wisps around the mana tree has taken a great liking to our Guest, Mr. Fuzz E. Bear,”

Being able to see the Great mana tree’s wisps is a sign that one has earned the Great tree’s trust and respect. Gus thought everyone was able to see the wisps around the queen when she fired the steel arrow. As it turns out, It was only him and the Queen who did.

“If you wish for human currency, then, unfortunately, we have none of it. But can your magic accept these instead?”

She opened her drawer and presented a Diamond, a Ruby, and an emerald! The Pizza Palace Brigade couldn’t help but be amazed at the sight of uncut, brilliant stones.

“This uncut diamond is about 50 grams. It’s definitely worth around 50,000 gold or 5000 plat! Burp! The Ruby and the Emerald is even more expensive! It is so rare that there is no monetary value for it at the moment. These are simply priceless! Burp!”

Being an educated tax collector, Mr. Murphy stepped forward and appraised the jewels himself.

“Gulp!”

Fuzz E. Bear Gus was shocked after he heard Mr. Murphy. Knowing this, he wanted to ask the System if the jewels are considered as legal tender to his System.

“System, Do you accept jewels as payment?”

“Of course, Dear User! But, the System can only accept the 50 grams of Diamond since it has a monetary value of 50,000 gold in the world of Circa. Anything else regardless of its rarity is irrelevant to the System. A word of caution Dear User, The system does not give change once the Diamond is used, Instead, it will be converted to S-cash which can be used to purchase products from your Inventory or the Online Grocery store.”

The System sounded like a proper store manager for some reason.

“S-cash? Do you mean something like Electronic cash? or e-purse?” Gus was surprised that the System was starting to familiarize himself with Modern Earth lingo. This System must have nothing to do but learn from my experiences. Gus was starting to think that the System itself is evolving somehow.

“Precisely, Dear User! This System took inspiration from User’s Memory!”

Knowing everything he needed, Gus laid his hand over the diamond since the Fairy Queen could buy everything she needed with that single Gemstone. Mana slowly gathered in his hand as the Diamond started to dissipate. As a great practitioner of Magic, she was astounded to see the Mystical Bear’s unique magic right in front of her. She knew that Mr. Fuzz was speaking the truth, but she could never imagine how his magic actually works. After the diamond completely vanished, Gus pushed the ruby and the emerald back to the Fairy queen’s hands.

“Your diamond is enough to purchase nectar for everyone in this village, please take the rest back,”

The Queen almost fell out of her chair as she didn’t expect Gus to only take a single piece of a diamond as payment for their long lost elixir. She was even prepared to offer Gus some of the village’s priceless treasures if necessary.

“With your diamond alone, I can deliver approximately 1,667 bottles of Nectar right now in this room. I will give you 500 pieces for now and I will deliver the rest after we purchase everything we need to deal with our Earth Spirit problem. Is it a deal?”

“You have already come up with a plan Mr. Fuzz?” asked Queen Aoivah. She didn’t expect this Mystical Merchant to be a tactician as well.

“Yes I do, but I only have one last problem. You see, I don’t have enough Mana to provide everyone with steel arrows,”

This was the remaining problem Gus needs to resolve before his plans come to fruition.

“You don’t need to worry about that. We can provide a lot of Mana Recovery potions Mr. Fuzz, Please tell me if you need more,”

Queen Aoivah ordered her guards to retrieve two boxes of mana recovery potions immediately.

As the guards returned, Everyone was astounded with azure-colored potions, shining brightly in the wooden crates.

“That is a Full-Mana Recovery potion! Squeak!”—

“The small mana recovery potions in the city costs thousands of gold already! Burp!”—

Gus and his companions were deeply impressed with the Fairies’ talents and capabilities. Not only are they good with archery, but they can also produce such miraculous potions no human can produce. With this problem solved, Gus immediately told everyone to come close to him.

“We don’t have much time everyone, so come here and listen closely. Here’s the plan…”

20 minutes left, Mansion Grounds—-

Every single fairy is burning the midnight oil by helping out with Gus’ plans to protect the village. While Gus produced Steel Arrows non-stop, Trina and some of the fairies were busy slicing bananas, some were assembling the toast and the rest were toasting the assembled dish with the help of the Pizza Palace Brigade’s stomach toasters.

“Such a weird-looking fruit, I wonder what it tastes like?”

Trina ate a piece of banana, as she couldn’t contain her curiosity about it any longer.

“Mmm!!! I wonder what else Mr. Fuzz is selling?”

Trina immediately fell in love with the sweet, yellowish fruit in her hand. She even started to wonder what else this mysterious merchant is selling.

“Trina! Stop Eating and help us out!”—

——

The dish itself is fairly simple, Using a thick slice of Hokkaido Milk bread as a base, they would put a layer of peanut butter and sliced bananas. After that, they will only need to drizzle the top with the sourwood honey and vanilla, before baking it in the toasters just for a few seconds. With four walking toasters and with everybody’s help, they should finish the dish even before their hour is up.

Everyone’s morale soared sky-high, ever since the Queen explained Gus’ defensive plans. As a bonus, she even announced that every fairy will receive a Legendary item called Nectar, which is supposed to be a myth. Even Gus’ companions who were once confused with their situation, were moving from one place to another, determined to help the troubled fairies.

After minutes of non-stop toasting, The fairy children couldn’t help themselves from the scent and stepped out of the Fairy Queen’s mansion. Their fear was quickly overwhelmed by the intoxicating smell of toasted banana, peanut butter, and honey. But what really drove them mad, is when they smelled the exploding scent of vanilla toasting in the toasters. Each and every fairy present, felt as if they were surrounded by cakes and sweets. The Fairy Queen herself salivated at the sights and smell of the finished Honey peanut butter banana Hokkaido toast.

Fuzz E. bear took about 40 pieces of toasts with him to feed the peering fairy children on the side. He even recognized the little fairy girl who couldn’t sleep because of her hunger. Their gaze only intensified at the honey toasts as they saw the food slowly approaching them.

“Don’t be shy. There is enough for everyone. Please Eat, all of you must be very hungry,” said Fuzz E. Bear Gus to the children. Hearing the kind and gentle bear offer food, The children lunged at the food as if there was no tomorrow.

“Crunch! Nom!” Crunch!”

The sound of toasted bread being devoured could be heard. Their cute messy faces were full of honey and peanut butter.

“Mmm! What fruit is this?! It’s so yummy!”—

“I think I’m drowning in sweets!”—

“I can keep eating this forever!”—

Gus felt satisfied seeing their hungry faces fade away.

“I’m sure Gretel and the others would love to play with them,” thought Gus.

Queen Aoivah was astounded with her citizen’s reactions. Their once hopeless eyes’ has completely disappeared. Right now, everyone is working hard to fight for their Queen and their Village. She was deeply touched by the love she received from her citizens. Of course, she is most thankful to Gus and his companions for answering their call.

If everything goes to plan, Gus will have won over the fairy’s gratitude, and at the same time, finish the System’s main mission, which will benefit him and his new-found tavern. But deep inside, Gus is still worried about the outcome of this war. Now that the battle draws near, he can only hope for everything to go according to his plan.
