Volume 9 Chapter 36: Redemption!
“Orin, are the equipment done?” The person who said this was Michael. Behind the big man was Keith and Alvin, who were shaking their heads. Orin had told them the equipment would be ready by today. This was startling because it had been a few days since Keith told him about it.
“Why are you the one screaming?” Orin glared. But that caused Hugo to smack his back, “There are kids here,” Did you forget about that?
“Did you finish it, Orin?” Keith was the one who said it this time.
Orin grinned, “Of course. We finished it yesterday. Come check it out yourself.” Going to the back, they saw the machines.
“We’ve also tested them, so you don’t need to worry about them exploding.”
“Each one is perfect,” Keith grinned; they were exactly what he wanted for processing the beans. Chocolate could be mass-produced now. As he continued to marvel, “There’s also the other thing.”
“Huh?” There was another thing.
“It’s the espresso machine,” Alvin answered.
“Really?” You guys finished this as well?
“Mmhmm, here it is,” A giant machine was in the corner.
“...Uhhh.”
Alvin explained, “Yeah, it had to be built much bigger than normal.” For the machine to work, he needed to use a good number of mana wires and heating stones for the water.
“What the? How could you guys finish everything so soon?” The chocolate equipment to the espresso machine; Keith was startled. The short period they had to finish it was just weird.
“Of course. When you give us an idea, you’re our number one priority.” The boy didn't know it, but he had always been the priority since he had always had interesting ideas.
“…You guys just want chocolate and espresso, right?” Keith blurted.
“…” Hugo and the other workers looked away, not daring to look the man straight in the eyes. That was most certainly a yes. They had worked day and night to get everything done. They switched out to get the other some time to rest.
Michael grinned, “You guys made another one, didn’t you?” If they made the machine so soon, they should have another one.
“We have it in the break room,” Hugo grinned. Orin and the other workers had built two based on Alvin’s design. Now, they couldn’t live without a cup before work.
“…Of course.” Keith shook his head, “So let’s bring this back home.”
“Put it in your storage this time,” Alvin chimed. From what he heard from Michael, it was quite a tiresome day.
“I-” Keith was prepared. That day was burned in everyone’s mind; he and Michael had to pull the damn oven home, which was tiresome.
“No need.” Michael grinned, “I’ve trained for this very moment."
“…Huh?” What do you mean you trained for this very moment?
“I need to redeem myself for what had happened before.” Keith wasn’t the only one who had a black stain. The thought of it had been on his mind for quite some time now.
“…Whatever you’re thinking, don’t do it.” Something bad would happen in a few seconds. But it was too late.
“Dammit,” A groan came out of his mouth as he stared at him. You have got to be kidding me?
“Haha! Look at me now! These things got nothing on me!” Michael roared triumph as he walked down the streets. But that only caused Alvin to mutter, “Just walk a few steps behind him.” He didn’t want to be associated with this person right here. It would be too damn embarrassing.
The number of people staring was quite high. And why shouldn’t they? You have the commander of the Freed Knights waving such a gigantic tool like an idiot.
Yeah, no one wanted to be close to that.
“What are you guys doing sitting behind there?! Get moving forward.”
“…” Dammit! Why did he have to call out our names like that?! This was asking for trouble. People started to turn to them, and the two looked away. But one kid shouted, “Young Master Keith! Hello!” He had recognized the black-haired man.
“…” Keith waved his hand, “Hello.”
“Let’s go there quickly before everyone starts rumors,” Alvin groaned, and Keith agreed. There was still one place they needed to go before bringing that espresso machine home.
“Francis, woah, this looks absolutely incredible,” He couldn’t believe it. How could these guys be moving at such a high pace like this? The inside of the chocolate store was quite incredible. There was a rich dark brown like milk chocolate. To offset the main color, there was light mint and pink color. It was quite a balance of colors together.
“What do you think about it, Keith?”
“It looks so incredible.” To make something like this in a few days was just incredible. And that wasn’t even the finished product!
“Thank you. Also, what do you want the signature to be?”
“Signature?”
“Yeah, like something that the customers could look at and know it’s that. I even made a personal shelf just for the signature item. There was a giant white shelf on the side. He planned to make a custom sign and alter the shelf for it.
“…I need to think about it.”
“Okay. But please tell me when you have it.”
“Yeah, I came here with the equipment. Walter, are you guys alright with doing double duty?”
“Mmhmm! We are, Boss!” Walter and the other beastmen were helping construct the store’s inside.
“I’ll teach you guys how to do it step by step. You’ve been fermenting the beans like I’ve asked, right?” Fermenting the beans was the thing that had taken most of the time.
“Mmhmm,” Walter and the other beastmen nodded.
“Good. The first step will be…” Keith started to talk to them about the process of making chocolate. And once they got the hang of it,
“You guys got it?”
“Mmhmmm.” The beastmen nodded,
“Then I will teach some of you how to make caramel and simple candies as well.” Carmel was simple enough, and the creation of orange and lemon candy was also good. Keith grinned as he taught them a few recipes.
“Good, I will leave you guys to make it. Do make me proud.”
“Understood! Boss!” Walter and the beastman nodded.
