"So, what do you have today?" an auburn-haired man asked as Kevin retrieved a sealed plate from his space ring. "It's grilled fish with rice and some pickled vegetables and pickle juice."
The auburn-haired man, an acquaintance Kevin had made at the city's training center named Austin, eyed Kevin's plate. With three pieces of hot grilled fish, green juice-infused vegetables, and steamed rice on the side, Austin's mouth watered, and he requested, "Looks tasty, give me one?"
Kevin didn't mind and handed him a plate, while in exchange, Austin passed him a silver foil-wrapped package. "Check this out, it's a beef patty burger. The beef is the best you can get here in the den, and it's quite healthy with natural qi," he said, and Kevin accepted it with a smile.
