"Sorry for getting held up. We were doing a little investigating on why people aren't crossing the bridge." Walker greeted Herder who was already resting by the fore with the white bull behind him. 

"I thought you would find the answers, so what is the damage? Will I make my delivery on time?" Herder was worried that he would not make his deadline and lose out on the full payment he needed. 

"We should be fine, my party took the quest to slay the orcs that are causing the problem. But if you want to wait a day or so I won't push you to go. I am sure that my party will miss a few of them so there will still be a danger." Walker didn't want Herder to be convinced that it was a perfectly safe trip. 

"Then we will leave out with you. I can handle myself fairly well. I am more interested in why you took a quest when it was out of your way. You look like you have other places to be." Herder had noticed that the party was very motivated in their pace and was always moving. 

"We have a place to be but it is to be expected that things will come up. The slight detour we take for the orcs will still allow us to be on the same path and trail changing absolutely nothing to our plans." Walker was quick to let Herder know that this was not at all influencing their trip.

"Well, I will let you be then. Now about that dinner, we talked about." Herder was eagerly awaiting the horned rabbit and Walker was ready to oblige. 

The party sat themselves around the fire while taking turns spinning the meat over the fire to cook it evenly. Walker was actually enjoying the experience because the more he cooked the more it made him feel like he was back at home with his mother. 

'The skill expert roasting has been taken from the smoke master system. The skill expert roasting has been learned due to the users' actions. 

Expert roasting- 1 mana cost per hour.

The user can expend mana to assist the roasting process. The user will be able to more evenly roast the ingredient. The user will have better control of the heat being applied to the ingredient. The roasting time will be decreased slightly depending on the users' knowledge of the ingredient.'

The skill that Walker had learned instantly showed its' strength. Walker suddenly began to more efficiently cook the horned rabbit. "How did you get a skill from making dinner? It should have only been a quick meal. You have done this before." Remey was up in arms about the skill. She had seen him do this before a few times and Walker had not gotten a skill before. 

"I have no idea. It is probably because I have started to get to know the ingredient and also the process. It says that I am able to speed the process of cooking up if I understand the ingredient in the skill description." Walker tried to read it out but Remey was already done with the conversation out of frustration. 

"Wait. you're saying that you just learned a new skill? What kind of cooking system do you have that you just learned a new skill?" Herder had watched this conversation and saw the change in Walkers' cooking. 

"Oh, sorry, my system is called the jack of all trades system. I can learn pretty much any skill as long as I take the time to understand it and learn." Walker said this with a casual tone which made Herder even more amazed. 

"He learns new skills often. It is always a little much to handle for everyone around us. But we have forgotten used to it." Gil thought someone should let Herder know that this was normal.

"Well, ehm, that is interesting. I hope that means the meal will taste better. Let me go and get the shepherd so that he can eat as well." Herder stood up and walked off a little shaky while trying to catch on to the fact that Walker could just learn any skill he wanted. 

"Maybe I should start explaining this stuff a little earlier when we meet people." Walker felt a little embarrassed to have surprised Herder so much.

"Eh, at this point if we don't shock people it is not as much fin." Remey just shrugged as she rejoined the conversation. 

Midnight nudged Walkers' side looking toward the food. "It should be done in another minute or so. Just let me start to cut it." Walker grabbed one of the carving knives he had in his inventory as part of his basic gear. 

"Alright, this is the shepherd that joined me for this trip. He doesn't really talk since he was born mute. But he is pretty great company. He also can take care of an orc in his own right, so when we leave don't worry too much about him." Herder surprised the party on his own by explaining that the weaker looking man was somehow able to defeat an orc easily. 

"Welcome to dinner. Today we have roasted horned rabbit freshly gathered by our new friend with the whips there." The shepherd smiled and raised his walking stick. After tapping it on the ground five or six times he nodded and waited for the food. 

Walker sliced off pieces for everyone and set up a large piece for Midnight. In a matter of seconds, Midnight had already scarfed down half of it. Walker just smiled as he added a little more to her plate and grabbed a piece for himself. 

"So, I used my appraisal skill on your bull. It is very interesting to see a monster from across the ocean. How did you meet?" Walker was starting a conversation that he had hope would get an interesting story.
