The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker



Chapter 248: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 51

This was exactly like what the elite members of Seven's company warned them about. Only official soldiers can get inside the barracks. Anyone who isn't part of their army is prohibited from getting inside, let alone getting close.

That is the exact reason why Maria is asking Kayn and Gilbert how they get inside.

"We came along with Captain Seven's company, Madam Maria," Kayn responded while making eye contact with Maria.

"Is that so?" Maria doubts it. "In that case, where is Captain Seven right now?"

"He went along with another Executive to pass a report to the base. Once he's done with that, we will continue on our way to the Daze Village," Gilbert interjected.

"Did you already succeed in rescuing Chief Kody and Chief Kellan?" Maria can't help asking.

"Unfortunately, the two Chiefs are presumed dead after the recent clearing operation of the Dream Village,"

"How regretful," Maria sighs. "You mentioned clearing operation, did the two Chiefs perhaps reveal information about our members hiding in the enemy's rank?"

"As we have been hiding in the sewer and canals of the Dream Village ever since our enemy invaded the territory, we can confirm the high chance that the two Chiefs have betrayed us,"

"Hypocrites always remain hypocrites,"

"I agree," Gilbert was unable to hold his thoughts. He is still displeased at Chief Kody and Chief Kellan after the duo tried to take away the Kingmaker from Kayn.

It quickly caught Maria's attention. "Interesting. You actually dare curse out your superiors,"

"They are dead madam, and they are also traitors of the Assembly of Freedom," Kayn interrupted in order to save Gilbert.

Gilbert gulped down a mouthful of saliva and choose to remain silent.

"Fair enough," Maria agrees. "Anyways, you still haven't answered my question about what you are doing out here,"

"We were looking for the kitchen around here, Madam Maria," Kayn didn't dare to lie.

"The kitchen?" Maria became confused.

"We are kitchen staff of Seven's company,"

"Just so you're aware, each company is strictly forbidden from using another company's kitchen. This is a precautionary step in case Wesley attempts something foolish," Maria informs them.

"I told you so," Gilbert softly punch Kayn's shoulder.

"But how can we prove to Alonzo that we deserve to join them?" Kayn expresses his frustration.

"We just follow whatever he says," Gilbert rebutted.

"That wouldn't make us different from the rest outside the barracks," Kayn sighs heavily.

"What are you two talking about?" Maria felt curious.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

"Alonzo, which is our head chef,"

"I know him. Seven's personal chef," Maria interrupted before motioning her hand to continue.

"Yes, Seven's personal chef. Alonzo informed us along the way here that he is interested in recruiting us to become officially part of the kitchen staff of Seven's company. We know how good it is to become a part of the Assembly of Freedom's army, so we both wanted to get accepted,"

"Nyak here," Gilbert pointed at Kayn. "Express that in order to increase our chance of getting accepted, what if we use the ingredients we have to cook everyone's lunch meal,"

"Is that so," Maria finally understood. "Seeing how enthusiastic you are, I guess I can help you with your plan,"

"Seriously?!" Gilbert felt genuine delight.

"Be respectful!" Kayn smacks Gilbert's head.

"It is alright," Maria chuckled.

Watching Maria acting like a real child, Kayn can't help but compare it to the Human Hunter Maria he used to know in the future. The difference between the present Maria and the future is like heaven and earth.

ƥandasnovel·ƈom "I am certain something profoundly unfortunate must have occurred in Maria's past, leading her to become the Human Hunter Maria she is in the future," Kayn mused. He had noticed that the majority of the villains he encountered in the future had experienced tragic events that fueled their transition into a life of a Villain. Maria shouldn't be an exception to that.

"How about a fair exchange," Maria suddenly proposed. "I'll give you permission to use their kitchen, but in return, you have to let me taste the meal you both cook?"

Hearing that, Gilbert can't help looking at Kayn. He has tasted the latter's dishes back then, and although they are good, it wasn't honestly something special.

Unbeknownst to Gilbert, Kayn's extensive experience with poverty and his need to fend for himself has honed his cooking skills over the years. In fact, with his culinary expertise and knowledge from the future, Kayn is a talented cook. He has simply kept this skill hidden, as there hasn't been a suitable occasion for him to showcase it.

"Are you sure that's all you want?" Kayn narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, and just to warn you, I am a picky eater. If I don't like the food you cook, you will be punished for not following orders," Maria looks at Kayn solemnly.

"Maybe we shouldn't do this," Gilbert is starting to feel extremely hesitant about this, especially now that he knows Maria's standard for food is high.

"Trust me," Kayn smiles at Gilbert.

Seeing the clear look of confidence on Kayn's face, Gilbert instantly realized something in his mind. He thought, "Was he perhaps hiding his talent in cooking all this time?"

"Since you're feeling very confident, then let me take you to the kitchen," Maria didn't waste any more time since it is about to be lunchtime as she took both Nyak and his companion to the kitchen.

After passing through a few hallways, they finally reached the kitchen.

Unlike the kitchen they used ever since becoming the kitchen staff of Seven's company, this kitchen in front of them is exactly the same as the kitchen of high-rated restaurants. Even the vibe and atmosphere were similar.

Because it is not yet time to cook for lunch, there is currently no one around the kitchen.

This is perfect for both Kayn and Gilbert. In this way, no one will disturb them as they cook.

"You may do as you please," Maria looks at the clock above the wall. "But make sure to finish it within an hour, because their kitchen staff would be arriving by that time and will be using the kitchen,"
