"So nice to see you again, Tarren," Jonathan said as he shook Nick's hand.
Right now, the two of them were in a big and luxurious office, which was filled with all manners of art and fancy installations.
"Also nice to see you again, Jonathan," Nick said as he put some Gourmet Spice on a huge cooked pheasant. "You don't mind me eating, right?"
"I'm used to it," Jonathan asked with a laugh. "I see you are enjoying the Gourmet Spice."
"Just call me fat," Nick said with a laugh. "By the way, what do you think of my new transporter?"
Nick used his Zephyx to move the luxurious transporter to the side.
He was in a cart that was made of the most expensive wood the city could find.
There were plenty of reliefs and engravings on his transporter.
The cushion was the most comfortable one could find in the city, and the wheels shone with splendor.
Meanwhile, the ass that sat in the transporter was as wide as could be.
If Nick were a normal human, he would probably weigh over 400 kg.
He was insanely fat.
As Jonathan and Nick exchanged some pleasantries, Nick ravenously consumed the pheasant.
"Judy!" Nick shouted.
"Yes, sir?" a fat woman spoke as she entered Nick's office. "I want three more. Bring one for Jonathan as well, but make sure there's no Gourmet Spice on it."
Nick laughed loudly. "He's on a diet."
"Of course, sir," Judy answered before leaving the office again.
Jonathan laughed a bit. "You're living in quite the luxury, Jonathan. You even have an Expert as a secretary."
"Only the best, my dear friend," Nick said with a laugh. "Is everything working out with the Gourmet Fat?"
"Of course," Jonathan answered.
Nick released a sigh before burping. "Excuse me. I was afraid that something had happened and that you would leave my Extractors without Gourmet Fat. You have no idea how much my Extractors depend on it."
"I get that all the time," Jonathan answered.
Gourmet Fat was something Big Gourmand produced.
It could increase the amount of Zephyx an Extractor could absorb per day by a bit, but it also made them quite fat.
This was the reason why Gourmet City had no issues with new Manufacturers.
More Manufacturers meant more Extractors, which meant more customers that bought Gourmet Fat.
"The progress you made within just three years is nothing short of astonishing," Jonathan said after some small talk.
Nick shoved another fatty piece of meat into his mouth. "I'm pretty good at sniffing out Specters," he said with a laugh.
"Everyone noticed," Jonathan said. "You already have two other Specialists and over ten Experts. How many Specters did you catch in just three years? 40?" ɽÀ
