As the duo began searching for the bottom area for any kind of answer lead. Elsewhere, the shortest man had already finished preparing a table with all kind of food.
"So for the meat we have Roasted Wild Beast Boar, Roasted Wild Beast Goat, and finally Roasted Wild Beast Spider Webbing Queen."
He wrote those down on a paper.
"For sides there are Roasted Farm Grown Brown Plants (potatoes), Roasted Farm Grown Orange Sticks (carrots), and finally Roasted Farm Grown Edible Mini Trees (broccoli)."
Once again he wrote down the sides.
"For this starter we have the Skinned Boney Fish and a dipping liquid that makes it go boom!"
The paper had that written on it now.
"Oh, I need to figure out what kind of dessert we will have. Hmm."
A/N the actually name that the people called it is not what we would we call it. Thus that is why what Rex would call it was written in parentheses.
Meanwhile
"I hope the meal is almost ready. I am starving." The Ancient Zuggurant spoke.
He was quiet almost too quiet for intruders to be inside where he resides. He was not worried in the slightest.
While the group slowly advanced towards his location. The table had finally gotten set and he was summoned to join the table.
While the duo could not find any exit nor thing to continue their journey. A double door of pure stone and rock opened up. The duo walked towards the entrance door. Seeing that nothing was stopping them from continuing. They both nodded at each other and advanced towards the end goal.
'Ding'
Rex was surprised to get a notification here.
"Eat Supper with the Ancient Zuggurant"
"Rewards the ability to help the Ancient Zuggurant obtain Peace"
"Failure Fight to the Death with you having no access to your Godly Qi during the fight"
Rex was truly baffled by the new Quest. He decided to try out this Quest to see what would happen.
As the duo made their way to the dining room. The final touches on the table were being set.
"Bread is good. The fish sauce is a little spicy but hopefully acceptable. The crunchy bites fill my mouth with drool and hopefulness of a delicious supper.
I guess the only thing left is to put the small table chairs out. I personally hate that table but it is better than having food being close to everyone and having to fight for whose turn it is."
The shortest man set a beautiful bottom half of a table out. This wood seemed to glow in the dark. Then a marble top was gently rolled out and placed on the top of the bottom half.
The marble seemed to glow with a marvelous white glow now. A set of doors opened and Rex and War God came through the doors.
"Marvelous timing my friends. For the Ancient Zuggurant is about to have supper and wishes for us to join him in this meal." The shortest man seemed to be overjoyed.
"Truly a waste but whatever." War God thought.
The reason why she thought that was because she was not wanting to eat food prepared for anyone else but Rex.
"What is on the menu?" Rex asked.
"Here is the paper with the menu!" The shortest man was happy.
"So for the meat we have Roasted Wild Beast Boar, Roasted Wild Beast Goat, and finally Roasted Wild Beast Spider Webbing Queen.
For sides there are Roasted Farm Grown Brown Plants, Roasted Farm Grown Orange Sticks, and finally Roasted Farm Grown Edible Mini Trees.
For this starter we have the Skinned Boney Fish and a dipping liquid that makes it go boom!"
Rex did not see any dessert on the menu. This made him worried.
"Is there any kind of dessert or is it just a meat and vegetable kind of day?" Rex asked.
"For dessert we have not yet fully made anything. There is some dessert that will be coming but as for what it will be. I, myself, am not entirely sure."
Rex was saddened by that. Then the Ancient Zuggurant made his appearance known.
A man standing eight foot tall. His hair whiter than white, his teeth sparkling white, his eyes bright orange, his muscular build seemed to radiate how much he had trained from an early stage, and his legs were a total of six.
He had two front one bunched together the back two seemed to keep him from going backwards while the middle two did the walking.
"I am what you have heard as the Ancient Zuggurant. That is both my name and race."
Rex walked up to him and extended his right hand. The Ancient Zuggurant shook Rex's hand.
"I am Rex. Over there is my Battle Maid War God. We are pleased to eat supper with you. I hope that you do not mind if I ask questions about what you yourseld during supper."
"Certainly, as long as I am willing or able to answer your questions. I will do my best to answer any and all of the questions that you may have."
As the group gathered a sense of the meal was ready. A small bell rang and everyone turned their attention to a skeleton.
"Dinner should be ready. If not it will be time to make a new henchman."
Rex went and got a plate for himself and War God. He put two of the vegetables a piece on their plates. He got a slice of boar and goat for each of them.
He walked away and handed her the plate. When they sat down, four plates with the boney fish and it's sauce along with a piece of bread was placed on the table.
The Ancient Zuggurant had gotten the spider queen to feast on. The shortest man brought a small plate with vegetables on it. The Ancient Zuggurant was not pleased but had to keep appearances up.
The shortest man had a plate similar to the others. Once they had all sat down and before they started to eat. The Ancient Zuggurant stomped twice.
"Wine taken forty years ago from merchants trying to steal from the poor." A skeleton brought out.
"Good."
Glasses were placed around and drinks poured.
"To new faces and hopefully new friends." The Ancient Zuggurant raised his glass.
