Food Factory
Azkar noticed her unusual behavior, and even her chicks reddened. Witnessing her struggle to gather courage to speak, he chose not to tease her.
"Okay, now cut it out. I'm here for just a couple of hours. If you have anything to say, then say it," Azkar decided to break the silence.
"I... I just want you to protect my empire. If you do this, I'll do anything for you," Alena said, summoning a lot of courage, yet tears welled up in her eyes.
SHI! SOB! SOB!
Alena started crying, and she had a very strong personality and a sense of responsibility. But this time is different; she also didn't know the reason why she decided to ask for help from the person she met only a couple of times. But for some reason, she felt that this is the right choice.
"I'm sorry; you saw this side of me, but I don't want my people to die. Please save them," Alena said, unable to make eye contact with Azkar after making her request.
"..."
Azkar was speechless because he knew from the beginning that this girl was just pretending to be cold in front of other people, but she really cared for her people. But, what made her this desperate to make such a request?
"Hey, crybaby, stop it. Just tell me. Is something happened in the capital while I was away?" Azkar asked because there has to be a reason behind this.
SHI! SOB! SOB!
"My older brother betrayed us; he made a deal with the vampire empire. He poisoned Father's food with the most potent poison. Right now, the empire is under his control, and Uncle Veldora is badly wounded. Father is taking his last breath." Saying this, she started to cry even more.
"Please help my father. I don't have anyone to rely on. If you don't do anything, everyone will die," she said, coming to her knees and avoiding eye contact with Azkar.
"Aunty, Hilda is charged for the crime, and they're going to execute her. I don't know what to do." She dug her nails into her hand, blood flowing from the wounds inflicted in anger.
"Hey, don't cry. truth is, I'm not the type of person who helps people, and I always have my priorities clear. Honestly, even if millions of people die in the other empire, it won't affect me even in the slightest. But what's important to me are the things that matter in my life, no matter how small or worthless they seem from others' perspectives. As you can tell, I'm listening to your story, which means you're also one of my priorities and important to me. So, you don't need to give me anything. Wait here; I'll make something to eat, and then I'll help you," Azkar said while assisting Alena to stand properly, inviting her to his dinner table.
SOB! SOB!
"I... I..." She wanted to say something after hearing Azkar's reasoning behind helping her but couldn't.
"Don't be a crybaby; it doesn't suit you in the slightest," Azkar said, while internally thinking, " Fuck! How am I able to say something so caring to a girl? My social skills are really gone completely. But I really do like her icy glare. What the hell are you thinking? Cut it out."

What the hell!
" What kind of name is this?" But he decided not to judge his first ultimate skill just by seeing the name. He focused on the skill, and a golden panel appeared in front of his eyes.
[ Food Factory (Ultimate Skill) :: A skill tailored for the most versatile agriculturist and food lover. Each of its abilities has abnormally high energy usage to achieve their desired effects.
[Food Analysis :: The system will passively analyze any food the user has seen. In the absence of any data on the food, the system will use simulation to recreate the food to 100% reality.]

[Five Star Chef]:: A farmer is nothing without the skill of a great chef. Any meal prepared by the user will have the splendor and taste of pure happiness while enhancing the essence contained in the ingredients by more than ten times.
"..."
Ridiculous!
Yes! All of these sub-skills are just too ridiculous.
Gazing at his status panel, his face brightened because he really likes to eat foods and proudly calls himself a food lover all the time. He noticed that some of the sub-skills are locked, but he understands because he doesn't have any place inside his [Halo Domain] to use as a farming ground.
"Food Order," Azkar thought, and a golden panel appeared in front of his eyes.

"This is even allowed! But who cares," he decided to order something, but seeing the rates of this food, it's way too high. If he decides to eat daily, He's going to be broke
