31.

2 more days have passed and I am about to open my tavern for business and it surprised me that there is already a long line forming. Gildarts and Jura were the first one to rush in.

"Brother, you're an evil man, you know that? How could you close on the weekends? I'm starving!" Jura said.

"I have to take breaks so that I could have some time with my family." I said firmly.

"I guess... I'll just eat at Yajima's restaurant every weekends." Jura said as he understood. I have a life as well and I'm the owner, I could open up whenever I wanted.

"I don't care, as long as I could buy some booze in this place!" Gildarts said as a matter of fact.

The customers started sitting on the chairs and started looking at the menu. During the weekend I paid the system to print out the menu which consisted of mostly meat dishes and vegetables and finalized the prices to an appropriate ratio. I have also put in curry rice and pork tonkatsu in there to broaden their horizons that rice is not a food only for slave and that there is no such thing. All that matters is you fill up your belly.

Most of my customers are from the army and adventurers. I planned on sharing to the adventurers the method of cooking rice to spread the word that even rice could taste good.

There are a few figures that I took note of that are wearing a hood to hide their identity. The Wizard King, August being one of them. I realized that August is a reasonable man and didn't want to cause trouble even when he saw Gildarts or anyone from Fiore or any other country.

To my surprise, his favorite dish is pork tonkatsu with veggies in the side and even requested additional sauce.

I have also took notice of Arcadios, the Holy Knight of Fiore. And his favorite dish is spicy fish with a medium level spicyness. He told me that it makes his blood boil and warms his body that he became motivated to hone his skills more which I found weird but let it be since its his life.

There is also a younger Ichiya who kept on spouting men as he LITERALLY climaxed and became unconscious with the help of my food which made me kicked him out as he is making the diners uncomfortable. I took note of making Ichiya a special room so that no one would be grossed out by his reactions.

Among the hooded figures are Jose Porla, the guild master of Phantom Lord, who seems to enjoy a vegetarian diet and Precht Gaebolg, the former guild master of Fairy Tail, who seems to like a vegetarian diet as well.

The Chipmunks offer their help as well, Erza and Kagura became food servers while Pitou handles the payment section. I only made Erza and Kagura carry light foods like side dishes while the customers sometimes encourages the two. Although they moved slowly, the customers didn't mind at all, instead they found them adorable. Pitou on the other hand is a monster, she can already calculate the cost of their meal and how much change she should give back.

Juliet and Heine helped me out as well by being waitresses. Of course I paid them for their job although their salary is meager compared to their salary as a squad leader, it is still money they could use for shopping.

Also, I provided some take home food for my customers. Fast foods to make like fried rice, waffles, and garlic bread.

The hectic schedule continued on until closing time. I saw the tired chipmunks, Juliet, and Heine. I took a mental note of having a shift whereas having a morning shift which only serves morning food and from lunch onwards, the food on the menu is completely available. Continuous work like this will tire me and the kids out.

Irene just got home to see the Kids, me, and her loyal retainers tired from working.

She casted a simple rejuvenation spell to alleviate the burden as she prepared to make some hot food for us. After taking a short break I helped Irene out as we made dinner for everyone.

After dinner no more words are said as they immediately went upstairs and fell asleep.

"What happened? Why are you all so tired?" Irene asked.

"A lapse in my decision." I said as I am starting a draft on my mind on what time should I put in the morning shift, the lunch shift, and the dinner shift. The system helped me out as well by telling me the data on what time we have the least customer as I cut down the time to an appropriate level to form a shift.

"Are you going to be okay? I already saved so much money that you don't need to do this anymore." She said with a hint of worry.

'Although I would love that, I need to earn money to have points that I could use to get more stronger, only when I am stronger than anyone on this world would I be able to enjoy a carefree life with my daughters.' I thought before shaking the thought away.

"Its fine. I will adjust the schedule so that this won't happen again. Why don't you go and make the kids sleep and I'll clean up. Don't worry, I can still clean up, and maybe let you have a good time before sleep." I winked and teased Irene as she ran up the stairs with a red face of embarrassment.

I started cleaning up and quickly finished washing the dishes and pots. I then cleaned the hall before going upstairs. I was about to open the door to pick up Irene when the system's voice sounded in my mind.

[Host's points have already reached the amount needed to upgrade the system. Would you like to upgrade it?] The system asked

'Yes, upgrade it.' I told the system to bookmark the system upgrade and remind me whenever I have the points and stop me if I become tempted on buying an item that is not yet needed in the shop.

[System would be down for 8 hours while upgrading. Time left: 7:58:39]

I opened the door and saw the chipmunks sleeping peacefully as I looked at Irene with a teasing smile as I walked to her and whispered in her ear.

"I told you, I can still make you feel good before we sleep."

I sweep Irene up in a princess carry as she started blushing really hard and pounded my chest as I brought her to our room and we started making out.

I'll drop it here, one of the compatible ingredient for MC is Ope Ope no Mi. He doesn't need to eat it, he only needs to scan it and the system will do its job. Once copied, MC can buy it from the system.

Can someone tell me the entire backstory of Corazon and Law in this paragraph comment. Its been a long time since I've watched or read manga of One piece and there might be a lapse in the story I know of.
