As Eleo strolled down the long bridge, he whistled a completely out-of-tune melody, occasionally stopping to peek over the edge. The water below was crystal clear, reflecting the sky like a giant mirror.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9dH2uexcg
"Wow! This water’s so clean I could drink it!" Eleo said, leaning over. He paused. "Wait… would I drown if I tried?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3dyULnmFJ
He scratched his head, deeply pondering this important scientific question when—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOKe3q2Ctj
"HALT!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BuoB1YMwI
Eleo flinched as two guards stepped forward, blocking the entrance to the city. They wore polished uniforms, crisp and intimidating—exactly like the ones from that fancy boat that got wrecked earlier. Their dark blue coats had an eagle emblem stitched onto the back, its wings spread wide, giving off an air of authority. Above them, two watchtowers loomed, and Eleo could feel the sharp gaze of more guards peering down at him.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIh276FNqy
"Yo! Can I go into Lola Island?" Eleo asked, waving casually.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCzdnZItCk
The first guard furrowed his brows. "The city is called Umapin. Lola Island is the name of the island itself."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqpxxidSUQ
"Ohhh," Eleo nodded sagely. "Wait, but the map only said Lola Island—"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAysWBESbFg
"Yeah, we know," the second guard sighed. "Tourists keep getting confused, but nobody listens when we try to fix it."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNz7GCpn5na
"That’s dumb," Eleo said bluntly.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SU0e3JU8B
"Right?! That’s what I said!" the second guard blurted before the first guard elbowed him.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfIaZXu0yp
"AHEM. Anyway, state your business," the first guard said, crossing his arms.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeCey42XwN
Eleo grinned. "I’m here to eat food, punch people, and become the strongest!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmyh3T97KM
The second guard blinked. "So… just chaos, then?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaeSLQbfMR
"Not just chaos," Eleo corrected. "There’s also food."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTAEH0iSYy
The guards exchanged glances. The first one sighed, already exhausted. "Do you have a passport?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7O4NvZEAuD
Eleo froze. "…A what now?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBI2U7EHcs
The guards stared at him.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXyCru09RT
"You don’t have a passport?" the second guard asked.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsDkxs6udu
"I don’t even know what that is," Eleo admitted, scratching his head. "Is it a fruit?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgllqh4nTeq
The first guard facepalmed. "No, it’s—ugh, listen, you can’t just walk in. Umapin is a high-security city! Only authorized people can enter!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20FRJuuDlv
"But I walked all this way!" Eleo groaned dramatically. "You mean I gotta turn around? That’s so far! My legs are already sore!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgdVEjTEti
"You were literally skipping a second ago," the second guard pointed out.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzUwAW623j
Eleo gasped. "YOU WERE WATCHING ME?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUez3l5LffI
"Y-you’re literally right in front of us—"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZL6j4QyqS
"Spying on a poor traveler like that, huh?" Eleo shook his head, wiping an imaginary tear. "Shameful. Truly, the corruption of the law is a tragic thing."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZgqDTMWMo
The first guard’s eye twitched. "Alright, I’m done with this conversation. You’re not getting in."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdO1ahoZxWw
"But what if I fight my way in?" Eleo grinned.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACxU7BTrJD
"You’d get arrested instantly," the guard deadpanned.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmbnHRC6c1
"…What if I sneak in?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvMaj6Llvf
"You just said that out loud in front of two guards."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppfMr4nAFW
"Damn, true," Eleo muttered.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3GhKHHgtD
The second guard sighed. "Look, if you really need to enter, you’ll have to get permission from the Umapin Embassy."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWl0ikpS7s
"Ohhh, gotcha! Where’s that?" Eleo asked.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7SWpxEQTs
The first guard pointed. "On the other side of the island."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiD1ZgpnTgx
Eleo’s jaw dropped. "BRO. THAT’S EVEN FARTHER THAN TURNING AROUND!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8cq3cS2dO
"Not my problem."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyET2fOjyzR
Eleo groaned, dramatically collapsing onto the ground. "This is so much work just to get some food."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzfC4YbYD7
The second guard sighed, rubbing his temples. "Just… just go. I’m already tired of dealing with you."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M9eVPubgE
"Wait, for real?" Eleo perked up.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcRTTrzTGC
"YES, JUST GO BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vNVhIbbUB
"AWESOME!" Eleo fist-pumped and ran past them.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhkF6cyoa5
The first guard turned to the second, frowning. "Are we gonna get fired for that?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxV2RNyNk7
The second guard sighed. "At this point? I don’t even care."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYm1vDA1J9
As Eleo ran into the city, he grinned. "Alright! Time to find food!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxqAnpbptp
He immediately crashed into a fruit stand, toppling it over.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUHIaA4TV9
"MY CABBAGES!" the vendor screamed.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjrPlar4Hq
Eleo dusted himself off, rubbing the back of his head as the furious vendor picked up his scattered cabbages.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpFR64dbJt
"Ah, my bad, old man!" Eleo said, waving apologetically. "Didn’t see your stand there!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GPNeWE7g2
The vendor scowled, clutching a bruised cabbage. "How do you not see a whole cart, boy?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmVx7rDDXf
"Uhhh… I was too excited about food?" Eleo grinned sheepishly.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGuAVKecB7
The vendor sighed, shaking his head. "Just go before you destroy something else."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhj2sVn1TC
Eleo gave him a thumbs-up. "Will do!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxNCBTeMOE
As he walked further into the city, his eyes widened in awe. Umapin was huge. The towering white buildings were adorned with intricate carvings, giving them a grand yet ancient feel. Large banners with the same eagle emblem as the guards’ uniforms hung from balconies and windows, swaying in the breeze.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4MmfDIP2Z
The streets were bustling with life—merchants shouting about fresh produce, blacksmiths hammering away at glowing metal, and groups of musicians playing lively tunes on street corners. The delicious scent of roasted meat, fresh bread, and exotic spices filled the air, making Eleo’s stomach growl loudly.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUrsUpa2OS
"OOOH!" Eleo gasped, spinning in circles as he took everything in. "This place is fancy as hell! Look at all this stuff!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMxfx02XSk
A luxurious horse-drawn carriage rolled past him, its wheels gleaming like polished gold. Inside, a noblewoman in an extravagant dress glanced at Eleo through her fan, then quickly turned away in disgust.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPbSAjSu2L
Eleo scratched his head. "…I think she just called me poor with her eyes."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedoU6LI9Rw
Nearby, a massive fountain stood in the middle of a plaza, its water sparkling under the sunlight. People gathered around it, tossing coins in and making wishes. Kids ran through the streets, laughing as they weaved between stalls and dodged annoyed merchants.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JCEw2o1sO
Eleo grinned. "Alright! First things first—FOOD!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbBDMRnlCn
His eyes darted from stall to stall, overwhelmed by the sheer amount of options. One stand had skewers of grilled meat dripping with savory juices, another had golden, flaky pastries filled with cream, and further down, a shop boasted massive bowls of steaming noodles.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvFhyOVTc7
Eleo practically drooled. "I want ALL OF IT."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDtpR1HLVX
Then, he froze.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVmr4rGXJX
Wait.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk681hxtzz
His pockets felt suspiciously light.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0aCnJTIdq
He patted himself down, panic creeping onto his face. "No way… NO WAY… I’M BROKE?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB38qwSE5h
A long, dramatic silence followed.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpQBlIuGEf
Then, Eleo dramatically collapsed onto the ground. "THIS IS THE WORST DAY OF MY LIFE!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA4KiJQRGI
People around him stared. A mother quickly pulled her child away.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZvPwFZKuN
Eleo sat up, deep in thought. "Okay, think, Eleo. No money means no food. No food means no strength. No strength means no becoming the strongest!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9II62EzyQa
He clenched his fists. "Alright! I gotta find a job!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxA8AICHxz4
A man standing by a nearby food stall overheard and smirked. "Hey, kid! You want a job?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjPsDBC9kH
Eleo perked up. "YES! DO I GET FREE FOOD?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyd8BQZXsz1
The man laughed. "You get a meal after work."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8n4WacHAF
Eleo grinned. "Deal! What’s the job?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIuEkDJJQn
The man clapped him on the back. "Congrats, kid. You’re now a waiter at The Golden Spoon!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7qOLWE0z2
Eleo blinked. "Wait… I gotta serve people?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QHo0KYVog
"Yep! Now put on this apron and get to work!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRUQX1x9Cv
Eleo said, “Well, okay!” as he tied the apron around his waist, completely oblivious to what his actual job was supposed to be.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4wJr680Ib
He stepped into The Golden Spoon, and instantly, the chaotic energy of the place hit him like a flying frying pan. The restaurant was PACKED. People were eating, laughing, singing, and even dancing on the tables. Some guy was juggling plates, a group in the corner was arm-wrestling while eating soup, and at least two fights had broken out over who got the last piece of bread.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKK1MJYsRA
Eleo tried squeezing through the crowd. "Excuse me—pardon me—whoa, nice flip—oof, sorry about your drink—hey, was that a knife?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAcSKJLF7o
Finally, he pushed through the madness and into the kitchen. Unlike the dining area, the kitchen was a finely tuned warzone of chefs chopping, stirring, and shouting. Pots clanked, flames roared, and the air smelled amazing.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp2pIOA4V5
In the middle of it all was a bald, thick-mustached man who was yelling orders at lightning speed. “WHERE’S MY SOUP?! WHERE’S MY MEAT?! WHERE’S MY—”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas2JijsNBI
Eleo, not paying attention, spotted a huge pile of fresh, bright-orange carrots. His stomach grumbled.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAIGTaOwnu
“Man, I’m hungry.” Without hesitation, he grabbed a carrot and chomped down. It was crunchy and delicious. So he took another bite. Then another. And another. Until—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIJ4xIHP03
“WE NEED CARROTS FOR THE STEW!” a waiter burst into the kitchen.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2RZ5anDwH
Several chefs rushed to the carrot pile, only to freeze in horror.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrf4F6BDK5
Half the carrots were GONE. And the other half? Bitten. Chewed. Abused.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EfajXwvGe
They slowly turned to see Eleo, mouth stuffed like a hamster, chewing innocently.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSyn0Q6QtV
He blinked. “Hello.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh61v5qv0RC
The entire kitchen exploded.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLja3QQYky
“YOU IDIOT!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvJkqjd0EY
“WHY WOULD YOU EAT THE INGREDIENTS?!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR0fYks5Um
“SPIT THEM OUT! SPIT THEM OUT NOW!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgUAYYCwNl
Eleo, still chewing, mumbled, “I don’t fink you want ‘em back now.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf874FAnAFR
Then, the bald man—JJ, the legendary head chef—stormed over, veins popping on his forehead. "WHAT’S GOING ON HERE?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvVVr2F6HL
A terrified chef pointed. “Sir JJ, this moron ate the CARROTS!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpNQ1VpEFf
JJ’s mustache twitched. He stomped over to Eleo, grabbed him by the apron, and lifted him off the ground like a sack of potatoes.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmXs8NrKk6
Eleo dangled in the air, still munching. “I was hungry.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTevHwnmrw
JJ’s eyes nearly burst out of his skull. "IS THAT SO?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVEbEKf0kb
Eleo nodded. “Yup.” Then, realizing something, he beamed. “Ohhh, are you gonna cook me something?!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PrfFH45y5
The entire kitchen fell silent.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAA6XBK2kIh
JJ’s mustache quivered. His hands shook.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOZjHpKRNo
Then he threw Eleo through the kitchen doors.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ylxbJYANy
Eleo crashed directly into a waiter carrying a tray of food, sending soup, steak, and an entire roasted chicken flying into the air—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgHcrchmFM
—Which Eleo instinctively caught in his mouth like a wild animal.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwcnrVmhL3
The restaurant gasped.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XVVFgyNHW
Eleo, still chewing, gave a thumbs up. “Mmm. That’s good food.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbvRgI3wyt
JJ’s voice BOOMED.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6S0FK8DsI
"GET THIS IDIOT OUT OF MY KITCHEN!!!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWZQWDT0LG
Eleo, still rubbing his head from being thrown, quickly jumped up. “Wait, wait, wait! Just give me another chance! I can, uh… I can cook! Yeah, I was the BEST cook in Coco Island!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8hDQFgge9
Inside Eleo’s mind: Hahaha! No, I wasn’t!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtv5xxBKie
JJ narrowed his eyes. “…Fine. But if you mess up again, I’m launching you straight into the ocean.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E16v5hWoJ
Eleo beamed. “Ohhh, I always wanted to be launched into the oce—”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFrUA6WpDH
“SHUT UP AND GET BACK IN THE KITCHEN!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDr4J3xznmD
Eleo cheered and sprinted back inside, ready to prove himself.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vhOAxsj5H
JJ sighed, rubbing his temples. “Alright, listen carefully. Do exactly as I say. You are going to make a simple stew. Got it?”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEy5HESRFY
Eleo saluted. “AYE AYE, CHEF MAN!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPXS8o4szK
The kitchen roared back into action, with chefs moving like a well-oiled machine. Eleo stood in front of a large boiling pot, stroking his chin.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOfPCOdNFc
“Hmmmm… what should I add?”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuc9M0qGWx
He glanced down and—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6k3IfExhfP
GASP!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeUvm0Bsmr
A dead rat lay on the floor.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqbVKGC8H0
Eleo’s eyes SPARKLED.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6crY8TmRL
"Perfect!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpn9cdV3fNJ
He scooped up the rat and shoved it into the pot. Then, without measuring anything, he started hurling ingredients in.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflybJ6tqJt
"Let’s see… needs salt!" He poured half a barrel of salt.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3R6bYpTDW
"Vinegar!" He dumped in the whole bottle.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFzGt4ziYT
"Water!" He poured dirty dishwater in by accident.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQzfF3YScF
"Pepper!" He emptied the entire container.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLh3UcerJG
"SPICES!" He grabbed random jars and flung them into the pot—glass and all.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rocHimBxs
After a few seconds, the pot looked like a bubbling, black cauldron of doom.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDES75PZm1r
Eleo nodded proudly. “Alright, this pot is READY!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmlRlh3NHy
A chef passed by, took one look, and immediately FAINTED.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgCwOlyG4e
JJ turned around. "Alright, let’s see how you—" He froze. His face turned pale.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix4DVaiAnT
"…WHAT IN THE NAME OF THE HOLY SPATULA IS THAT?!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ywJdpYty1
Eleo grinned. “Stew! Try it!” He grabbed a spoon and forced it into JJ’s mouth before he could react.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArrqasspQ6
JJ chewed. He paused. His whole body trembled. His mustache curled up like burnt paper. His soul LEFT his body.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ032xWUa9eW
Then—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNh4Sj0iclL
JJ exploded into a FURIOUS RAMPAGE.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdJNPGWJNM
"THAT WASN’T FOOD—THAT WAS POISON!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ymdJuiFLo
"Well, I am a creative chef," Eleo said, proud.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwexMJ4g06
"YOU PUT A RAT IN IT!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dn7pMl8N8
"Yeah, for flavor!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsitbL1EUs
JJ ripped off his chef’s hat and threw it on the ground. "OKAY, NO MORE COOKING! YOU’RE DOING SOMETHING EASY!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYRMwgdElw
JJ handed Eleo a knife. "Just cut these tomatoes. That’s it."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTXTDJJjxS
Eleo nodded. “Got it!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9u3WiePjA
He grabbed a tomato—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSzeAaBoc6
And sliced the cutting board in half.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxjVERdjnV
JJ’s eye twitched. “…Okay. Maybe that was too hard.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFs419mD6R
"Just clean these plates," JJ said. "Don’t break them."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ822arKjNvb
Eleo nodded. “Got it!”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt3pMtZs5I
One second later—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P8wHFHR2N
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJfXPtmrNA
JJ turned to see Eleo spinning plates like a circus act, except they were all shattering.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6Pu2ZjWV9
JJ fell to his knees. “I’M GOING TO LOSE MY MIND…”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GSX7fpHri
JJ handed Eleo a notepad. “Just write down what the customers want. That’s ALL you have to do.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNxkrLl8Y1
Eleo confidently walked up to a table.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmwFkZvNlc
The customer said, “I’d like a steak, medium rare, with—”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rzPOsqnsf
Eleo nodded and walked away before they finished.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmC38jKXpG
He proudly handed JJ the notepad.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnILk2h4Ha
JJ read it.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RzgQaAiAg
It said:
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSGbYzrlSo
"Guy wants food."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zhPBamOlY
JJ SNAPPED.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mmnD3H75e
"THAT’S IT! I’M DONE!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5NzAsV5c1
JJ grabbed Eleo by the collar and dragged him to the back alley.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKFEULEbAv
"Since you’re USELESS, you can at least take out the garbage."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCaa4nESd9
Eleo crossed his arms. “Pfft, fine. I can handle that.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vNyVe5umB
He picked up a garbage bag—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG4yXQFJ4Q
And threw it through a restaurant window.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZfESqSdH9
JJ screa
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eMMo1Vxdq
med.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UTvXGyKzI
"THAT’S IT! YOU’RE OUTTA HERE!!!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qKDLVpX9e
He grabbed Eleo back inside, opened the back door—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZMbs8ZQdy
And KICKED HIM so hard he flew into a pile of trash.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGZxeOyS5Z
The entire kitchen staff poked their heads out.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrqxQrv8FB
JJ took a deep breath and bellowed:
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nlF6H0Rim
"NEVER COME BACK!!!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5xg7EPxml
Eleo groaned, sitting up in the trash pile.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCyz9xRUf5
“…Man. That was the best job I ever had.”
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgom8lsFrf6
