Dimension System - Chapter 56

The oppressive atmosphere vanished once the lich was absorbed. With the mission complete, everyone could finally relax. With the enemies defeated, there was no hurry. Casually they swept through, absorbing the entire main chamber.

It was unfortunate, that moisture got in at some point. Most of the textbooks and tomes were moldy and unreadable. Still, he made sure to absorb them, hoping they could be of some use to the system. Perhaps they could be restored, someday.

A few similar weapons were also found. He already had those elements, so the originals could just be stored away. Finishing up a hours later, everything had been absorbed. Leaving behind a hollow cave, the group returned to the entrance.

Since it was late, they decided to return to the spatial world. Celebrating the victory, everyone came out to eat and drink. Zanir and his mom worked together, cooking up a huge pot of crab and sausage jambalaya.

Technically, it wasn’t a true jambalaya. Without rice, the system used wheat flour. Cooking and cutting noodles, into tiny rice-sized pieces. There were also some regular vegetables used since they didn’t have magic varieties of everything yet.

Cooking is all about making the best with what ingredients you have. Even with a few substitutions, the dish came out amazing. At this point, the chef had worked with senior Lee to replace the menus. Ordering kiosks were put out, with searchable menus.

People in the spatial world had taken to cooking as a hobby, in order to help pass the time. Since the automation, many of the farmers would hold competitions. All of the favorite dishes were added, the menu had rapidly expanded to include a variety of styles.

Crafting mouthwatering dishes wasn’t the only thing the citizens had been up to. Homebrewing had also sprung up. The citizens had access to wheat, along with the sugarcane which could provide molasses.

Working together with the goblins, they crafted barrels from all the different types of wood in the space. Experimenting with the ratios and process, lead to several interesting and tasty beers. Recipes were recorded by the system just like cooking.

Bringing out instruments, people even started to dance and sing. During the celebration, the brewery completed the Gruit ale that had been brewing. Knowing the quality of the spatial world products, everyone was eager to see the first alcohol produced by the system.

Dante somehow appeared in front of the cask, with a glass in hand, he was already prepared to sample it. Pouring a few glasses, the golden amber color of the liquid glistened like sunshine. A deep floral scent swept across the room like a linebacker.

Zanir, his parents, senior Lee, and Dante all raised the first glasses. Sipping a hearty drink, they couldn’t believe how flavorful the ale was. Having been created in a controlled environment, it was above and beyond what was possible Norantal.

Right away, he spent four hundred dimensional points, buying two additional casks. This way, everyone could try some right now, and they could also have plenty to sell. Everyone knew, that this drink would be priceless, it was like liquid gold.

Cheering erupted, from the already lively crowd, when the extra barrels appeared. If they had known how good it was here, they wouldn’t have hesitated to come. Partying into the early morning, everyone finally went to bed.

Waking up the next day, everyone was grateful for the spatial water. It really helped with a hangover. To help even more, he cooked up an omelet. With the system assisting, it came out fluffy and delicious.

Ordering up some pancakes and bacon, the system was even able to make syrup from molasses. Serving it up with a glass of cold milk, he had created a decent breakfast. Smelling the delicious food, several people nearby went to order the same thing.

Gathering together, everyone ate breakfast. After the morning meal, all the main figures met inside senior Lee’s tent. Checking out the new missions, they wanted to see what was available. Several of them were too far, located beyond what they’ve mapped out.

A single new icon had appeared just off the coast. Unlike the others, this icon was a skull. It wasn’t too far out of the way, in the direction of the next city. According to the system, it would help greatly with the new addition to the magic subroutine.
