Chapter 250: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 53

Kayn quickly return back to the cooking area to help Gilbert cook the remaining pieces of Grassland Bird that he had prepared for this cooking session. In total, they are cooking three hundred cut pieces, three pieces for each person.

Fortunately, there are just enough stoves and cooking utensils for them to be able to cook fifty pieces at the same time.

Contrary to what Maria had informed them about, even after an hour, there was still no kitchen staff arriving in the kitchen.

Nevertheless, Kayn and Gilbert continued cooking as they are already behind schedule. But this time, they became cautious and warry of Maria as they assume she is planning something against them.

They aren't certain about it though, seeing that Maria was still happily enjoying her extra serving of fried chicken and is not doing anything else. It also doesn't look like she's just acting.

"I think there's something wrong with where we are at right now," Gilbert muttered. He has been thinking about it ever since they arrived in this fancy-looking kitchen. "This kitchen shouldn't be the one the kitchen staff of this barracks uses,"

"Two separate kitchens?" Kayn pondered aloud. It occurred to him just now that considering the size of the place, it wouldn't be surprising to have multiple kitchens around. Having a backup kitchen in case something goes wrong with the main one seemed like a reasonable precautionary measure. There's also the possibility of a special kitchen that is meant to be used for special occasions.

"You guessed correctly," Maria suddenly interrupted.

"Madam Maria?"

Both Kayn and Gilbert didn't notice that Maria has already approached them. Fortunately, they didn't talk about anything related to their real identities.

"This kitchen you are using right now is actually only used to cater to special guests. Take for example, the one and only me," Maria proudly presented herself.

"Does that mean…"

"Would you like to become my personal chef, Nyak and..." Maria looks at Gilbert.

"Gilbert," Gilbert didn't bother hiding his real name since it is a common name.

"Nyak and Gilbert, are you both interested in working as my personal chef?" Maria asked one more time.

"Personal chef…" Kayn looks at Gilbert.

Finally, it was here. The chance to cook in the main kitchen of the Assembly of Freedom.

As if the duo already know the answer inside each of their brain, they both nodded simultaneously.

"It would be an honor," Kayn slightly bowed his head.

"We will accept," Gilbert added.

"As long as you continue cooking the same meal for me with just some slight variations, I promise you'll be treated well," Maria guaranteed.

"Would that include a chance to cook in the main kitchen of the Assembly of Freedom?" Kayn can't help wanting to know. Albeit he already knew.

"Only personal chefs can cook there, so yes," Maria nodded.

That's right. In the main kitchen of the Assembly of Freedom, only the chefs personally chosen by the important members of the organization can have the chance to cook inside. As always, the reason for this is because of Wesley.

Each of the chefs is given their own cooking area where they have all the tools needed to prepare the meal their master ordered them to.

Honestly, no one really knows what happens inside the main kitchen other than the chefs themselves as no one else can get inside other than them.

Kayn and Gilbert smiled in appreciation. It was a genuine emotion. Because thanks to Maria, they are now a step closer to achieving their goal of Charming Freedom.

"Since I can't officially give both of you your status as my personal chef in the Hush Village, go with Seven's company in the meantime to the Daze Village so that you can enter the base," Maria instructed. "I promise to find you both so that you can officially start your job,"

"We understand,"

"You can leave now and give the rest of the meal you prepared to your comrades,"

"How about the cleaning of the kitchen?"

"Someone else will come here to clean, so you both don't have to worry,"

With that being said, Kayn and Gilbert quickly left the kitchen. Before leaving though, they packed ten pieces of fried chicken and gave it to Maria so that she can enjoy more of it.

Maria appreciated the gift as she watches Nyak and Gilbert return back to their camp.

Kayn and Gilbert arrived at the camp right on schedule, coinciding with Alonzo and the rest of the kitchen staff who were receiving instructions regarding their assigned duties.

As soon as they saw Kayn and Gilbert carrying a tall bucket full of fried chicken, Alonzo and all the kitchen staff quickly approached them.

"Where did the two of you go?" Alonzo asked as observed the bucket.

"We went outside to tour the place and we coincidentally met Madam Maria who requested us to cook for her,"

Alonzo expressed his surprise, exclaiming, "Madam Maria, as in the Maria from the Assembly Knights?"

Confirming his claim, Kayn replied, "Yes, her,"

The revelation caused a stir among the kitchen staff, who voiced their worry.

"This is problematic,"

"No one anticipated her presence in the Hush Village,"

"Somebody should inform Captain Seven about this,"

"What's the matter?"

Kayn and Gilbert can't help but become curious about why everyone is reacting like that at the mention of Madam Maria.

"She's Captain Seven's girlfriend," Alonzo revealed.

Upon hearing that, Kayn quickly grasped the underlying reason. It resonated with his own experiences whenever Selena visited his school, prompting his classmates to express their concern for his safety. They were clearly just overreacting, and it is very similar to the situation right now.

Although he truly did not expect that Maria would turn out to be their Captain's girlfriend. He can't help but feel relieved that he didn't order his men to attack their company back then when Natas proposed it. Otherwise, he'll become the number one target of the Human Hunter Maria.

On second thought, how can Natas not be aware of Maria and Seven's relationship?
