"O-Of course, Sir Drake! Your dish and cooking was so impressive I will give you the VIP Chef Guild License right away! A-And you don't have to pay me anything either, this delicious dish was already worth its weight in gold!"
Eustace celebrated, quickly using a special magic item to create a new license for me with my name and a photo of my face. Magic technology was quite advanced, although only really accessible for the wealthy.
"Thank you! Now that we are done here, I should get going, I got my whole family waiting for me. I've already taken way too long…" I said with a smile. I couldn't help but feel rather happy to be recognized by such a figure of the culinary world of this continent. However, I was in quite the hurry right now, so I decided to quickly go back to my family to tell them about the good news.
"W-Wait, before leaving, Sir Drake… I want to propose you an idea!"
Eustace stopped me from walking away.
"Huh?"
