"Sure, thanks. Just chop those stuff over there."
"And you wanna help too, huh? Can't wait for me to finish cooking." Nero patted and brushed Ada's head a bit. "Yeah, you can help. You don't talk much, do you? Do you talk at all?" Nero wondered aloud. He would be told that Ada indeed cannot talk or at least, did not know the Common Tongue. "I see. Well, it's nice that she can at least understand us."
With Ada's help, Nero was done cooking the steak dish. "Here you go, Ada. Gotta admit, didn't think I'd be cooking this much today but it feels nice to have my dishes enjoyed and demanded."
No one present knew where the Cyclops Talia went off to, leaving everybody wondering. Before they could move to investigate, her voice was heard. "Everybody, watch out!"
Smoke bombs exploded all over the area, covering everything with a thick blanket of mist. A figure darted through the smoke, leaving behind a trail of cloud. Soon, everybody realized there were multiple figures moving about the smoke. Neil stuck close to the Altissima sisters and called out. "Is everyone alright?"
"Ah! Get off me! Argh!" Nero was apparently in a scuffle, but no one could see what was happening.
Once the guild found a way to dispel the smoke, they would see that they were mostly unharmed save for Nero who was gone. "Damn it, I was too late!" Talia arrived at the scene. "Sorry for disappearing on you guys, but I saw some suspicious behavior from the Kikimora contestant and had to secretly track her down. I found out that she stole the prize for the cooking competition, thatnooneseemedtohavenoticed, and then was gone for a while before here we are."
"Whatever her plan is, it seems to involve kidnapping Sir Nero." Neil voiced his thoughts. "Where do you think they've gone?"
"Since we are witnesses to her deeds, she would probably attempt to leave Boreal Port as soon as possible. We can go to the town's entrance and catch her there." Talia said. "Although, I'm not sure if she would actually be there. Do you guys think we should split up?"
"We also haven't reached our other members yet. Someone should go and tell them about this so we can all work together." Neil suggested.

"Wait, wait, wait, hold on!" Haley blurted out. She was flushed and blushing, her cheeks red as a tomato. "Freyr!" She almost yelled. "Do you like? As in, like me like me? I need to know, Freyr. We can't be dancing around stuff like this!" Despite her face being a red mess, she stood straight up and demanded answers.
"Because I, myself, really like you, Freyr." Haley confessed, probably taking you aback. It certainly made Sir Reed aback. "I mean, you're pretty and you're handsome and good-natured and other things. I've always thought I'd fall for a human man but here I am, with a male monster. Err, not that there's a problem with that. Anyway! The point is, I like you."
"So there, those are my feelings. What's yours, Freyr?"
"Sh-Should I be here or...?" An extremely out-of-place Sir Reed meekly asked.

"Wrong! That is the incorrect answer!" Riñas declared. "Now then, who else--"
"No! There are other gods of the sea besides Poseidon. She just happens to rule most of it." The Owl Mage answered, cutting off Riñas.
"That is correct! The last point goes to you, Miss Owl Mage! " Riñas declared. "Err, what was your name again?"
"It's Margaret. Margaret Alfstad." The Owl Mage then flew up and landed on your podium. "And you and I will be spending a lot of time together. A lot. Of. Time." You could tell she planned to savor her victory, with you as the prize.
"Curse you, Owl Mage." The Lich's face was deadpan but everyone could tell she was irritated. "You had better share the results of your findings, Owl."

The contest was over and you vacated the premises alongside Margaret. Riñas immediately left to handle other matters, being an organizer of the festival. The Lich also left, saying that she needed to report the presence of male monsters to everyone important that she can reach. You wonder if this would bring a lot of attention to the guild. Meanwhile, the Kikimora disappeared without a word.
You probably expected Margaret to immediately bombard you with questions but her first question was relatively simple. "Is there somewhere you want to go, Sir Skyway? You can take me anywhere you like."
"Heh, I could help with chopping some of the ingredients."
"Sure, thanks. Just chop those stuff over there."
"And you wanna help too, huh? Can't wait for me to finish cooking." Nero patted and brushed Ada's head a bit. "Yeah, you can help. You don't talk much, do you? Do you talk at all?"

"Hey, did anyone see where Talia went off to?"
"Did she come to the cooking competition with you guys?"
