A Living Armour Owns A Tavern 22 Magna Defender

Gus walked towards the living room. He didn't really mind that he couldn't partic.i.p.ate in the feast. But since he reasonably cannot enjoy the night with the kids, he antic.i.p.ated the ma.s.s experience points he was about to gain.

Gus focused and prioritized what he still needed to do, to accomplish his mission. He currently has enough money to purchase a land of his own. But the bigger question still remains. How and where should he place his restaurant? As a merchant's acquaintance, not being able to show a face is still a problem. He knew he cannot keep up his act for so long.

Gus thought of multiple things, like what if he somehow use Nico to run a restaurant for him or teach Sarah and the kids how to run a restaurant?

"Dear User! Let this System remind you that the USER is supposed to accomplish the mission, and no one else." reprimanded the System.

"How can I even do business, if they don't want to do business with me?" said Gus.

"Strive Hard User! Time is of the essence!" said the system.

"This b.a.s.t.a.r.d System! Running away from the important questions!" thought Gus.

After a while, Notifications started flooding in his Status Function.

"User Level Up!"

"User Level Up!"

"User Level Up!"

.....

Gus grinned as the moment he was waiting for has finally arrived!

The System went on for a while till it paused, revealing Gus' recent stats.

A.)TERRITORIAL IMPERATIVE - Please Use Core to Proceed.

Available skill points: 11 points!

"Eleven Points!" Gus said as he excitingly thought of what points he would spend these on and its' results!

As Gus was about to spend a point on his Barter,

Gretel and the kids have burst open the living room doors.

"PAPA! bad Goblins! Big sister Sarah!" said the teary-eyed Sage, as she still points her tiny finger towards outside.

"Mister Gus! There are a lot of Goblins attacking!"

said the trembling Cindy, as she was still holding Gretel's hand.

"I'll go take a look. Everyone, stay here," said Gus as he walked towards the door.

"We'll go with you Mr. Gus," said Griffin.

"No! Sister Sarah told me to take you guys here! I'll go with Mister Gus." said Gretel.

She remembered the weight of the words her elder sister Sarah has left her. She gave her the responsibility of keeping her siblings safe.

"Then we'll go too!" ----

"Let us help! Sister Gretel!" ------

Gus stopped everyone and said.

"Everyone! you guys better stay here, and listen to your Big sister Sarah." said Gus, as he knelt down in front of the children. "

If your big sister Sarah get mad for not listening to her, She might not trust you again. Now tell me, would you guys want that?" asked Gus to the children.

Everyone finally sat down and sighed.

"I'll be back. Who do you think I am?" asked Gus.

"The Great Cook Gus!" ---- everyone chanted.

"That's right! I promise I'll be back!"

Little Sage immediately jumped at Gus.

"Papa and Ms. Sarah better come back! or else I will be a bad Girl!" threatened little Sage, as small tears flowed out from her eyes.

Gretel also followed Little Sage and hugged Gus as well. "You better come back... Don't you dare leave me alone! you hear?!"

Then everyone else hugged Gus.

"I promised you guys adventures in the living room, and I do not break my promises! And also, I still owe little Cindy something sweet. Gretel, take care of them. I'll be going now." said Gus as he finally stepped out of the living room.

A few seconds later, Gus opened the living room door again and said.

"Um, could you guys give me that curtain drape?"

---‐-------------------------------------

"System, could you tell me if I'm now strong enough to beat these Goblins?

"I'm sure you could if you try." answered the system.

Gus cursed the system inside his head once again.

"But the System can give you a goblin's average status for you to compare! Please have a look." said the system.

"Thank you!" answered Gus as he sighed.

After taking a good look at the goblins stats, it turns out, that a normal Goblin's attack can't harm Gus anymore. Still, he should be cautious of the Goblin Shaman since he is still susceptible to magic attack.

Gus thought that he also needs a disguise. He is already grabbing a lot of attention from Rhoanne already. Gus used the red window drapes he took from the living room as a hooded cape. The disguise he chose, is a knight from his little sister's TV shows. It was none other than "The Magna Defender." ***

As Gus reached the chapel, he saw that the Goblins has already rushed inside. Seeing the Big empty round table with dirty dishes on top, Gus had an idea. Gus knew he had no time to defend the little boy who was about to get stabbed. The Goblins were already attacking from every direction.

"System! Please use five skill points in my Cooking skill!" said Gus.

III. COOKING LVL 07: NEW *Stats Improved!*

Temporary stat boost : One hour

---------------------------------

Because everyone has partaken in the feast, all of the townspeople have increased their stats for one hour! Gus' quick thinking has saved the brave boy Edward!

Gus then majestically entered the Chapel halls, as he forcefully flutters his cape.

"The Magna Defender has descended! Rejoice for you have been blessed by the Heroes of Old. Slay them all for the town of Yellowleaf!" Gus is embarra.s.sed at himself for spouting such cheesy lines that he blatantly ripped-off from her sister's TV shows.

After his bold announcement, Gus immediately drew his sword and dived right into the middle of the horde! Every Goblin's attack he received, only bounced right off. Gus started his counterattack with a single sword strike.

"SCHWIKKK!"

Thanks to Gus' new and improved stats from the numerous level-ups he got, his mighty sword swing killed Eight goblins! Five are knocked back by the pressure of the sword swing alone.

After realizing they can't do anything to this towering goliath, the Goblins scattered away in fear, that they would be the next dead goblin on the ground.

After seeing Gus in awe, every elder, women, and children stood up and yelled, "For Yellowleaf!" and began their merciless slaughter of goblins, driving them back to the dungeon. The bewildered Sarah also followed after Gus and the rest of the townspeople outside.
