Disaster on Dessert Tasting Club Table

The Autumn Feast is coming soon. Many people come together to talk about it. One of those people are Celios, Rakko, Nazo, and Siluet.

"Do you have a plan for the autumn Feast?", asked Rakko. "No, I also haven't cooked nor buy any food for it", replied Celios. Nazo and Siluet then give a similar statement.

"How about we bring food with the same category and theme? We can also make a club about getting together and tasting each other's foods that we bring! That will be fun!", said Rakko enthusiastically. The other three also got influenced by Rakko's eagerness and agreed with his plan. As the type of food that they will bring for the feast, It's decided that they will come and bring an Autumn Dessert for the feast.

"Alright! Since I used to bake a dessert and usually up in the morning, I can tag the table for all of us to sit on. I will also name our club as 'Dessert Tasting Club'!", Rakko continues. He then said goodbye to the other three after getting their agreement and went to prepare the tag and his dessert.

Not long after Rakko was gone, Siluet then blurted out to the other two "What is a dessert?". "I also don't know what it is. How about you, Celios", said Nazo. "It's a sweet dish that is eaten at the end of a meal", explains Celios. 'Hmmm, then I guess it will be fine as long as the food is sweet', assume Siluet and Nazo. They then went in a separate way to prepare for the dessert.

Celios went to look at available ingredients at home, but then realized that he didn't have relevant ingredients for making a dessert. There's only a couple fresh vegetables in his kitchen. Enough for making a simple salad. He then looked around some shops, but many were closed to prepare for the Autumn Feast too and the majority of the available ones were already out of stock. Not finding the needed ingredients, Celios then looking around aimlessly with a troubled face.

As the day goes by and the sky darkens, Celios gets to meet with Silas in the middle of a road. Silas was just heading home from scrounging for rare ingredients at a nearby mountain. As they meet in the middle of the road, Silas asks about what Celios was concerned about since he looks really troubled. When the explanation was given, he got interested in making the dessert for Celios. "I think I can make that dessert for you! I have many ingredients at home And based on your description about dessert, it will be fun to make it!", said Silas with confidence. Celios then offered to buy it, but Silas rejected it. "You can just trade it with your own homemade simple salad! We will then switch each other's food at the feast.", replied Silas. After that, they said goodbye to each other and Celios went home with a grateful feeling.

The promised day then comes, and Celios brings his homemade salad and goes to the Autumn Feast to meet up with Silas first. As he met with Silas and saw the dessert that he brought, he got really shocked by it. "What are you bringing! It's not my dessert right?", ask Silas with a frightened face. " Yes! It's your dessert! I made it with Autumn in my mind. Since Autumn is a withering season for me, I choose many related ingredients for my Stuffed Pumpkin Dessert. I even managed to ferment the pumpkin too! Don't worry, I also made sure to sweeten it with a lot of sugar and honey!", Silas proudly replied. 'I think that's not what I'm worried about...', though Celios to himself. But, despite the desert looking so suspicious, he still traded it with his own salad. "Are you sure the ingredients can be eaten safely?, Celios asked with hesitation. "Of course! Many of the ingredients also have a healing effect for the body. Though many people tend to have side effects from it, such as continuous vomiting for several hours got knocked out for several days. But it really has a magical effect on the body! It can quickly repair serious injury and old skin wounds, cure rare diseases, and boost your energy for a long time. I think it's fit for autumn since it's like a rebirth after going through a withering session, just like a dying phoenix!", Silas explained enthusiastically. ".... That's.... creative....", Celios replied weakly. They then went in a separate way with a starkly different mood. 'Well.... I have a new problem now....', Celios gloomily thought to himself.

He then searched around and found a table for four with the club name mentioned on a wood board near it (it says "Dessert Tasting Club Table") . The three other members were already sitting there. Strangely, two foods on the tble looks really odd. Siluet brought what looks like a bloody raw steak. Celios then looked at a bottle of strawberry sauce beside it and realized that it's actually not blood on the raw steak. As Celios glanced to the other side of the table, he saw that Nazo was holding a freshly caught fish with some suger cubes spilling from the fish mouth. As for the last member and founder of the club, Rakko was bringing a delicious looking apple pie. He looks so shocked sitting in the middle of it. 'I think Rakko's soul get lost there. Thankfully I'm not the only one bringing a questionable dessert and at least there's one normal dessert there', thought Celios to himself.

Celios then heading to the table with a strong determination to steal Rakko's apple pie and makes the other members finished up Silas 'dessert' while avoiding Siluet's and Nazo's 'dessert' too. Rakko then also realized that Celios were heading to the table. As he looks at Silas homemade stuffed pumpkin, he feels even more dreadful. His face getting paler as Silas's 'dessert' getting closer and closer.
