I'm the King Of Technology

Once they arrived at Division 3, their supervisor resumed his tour once more.

Muriel looked keenly at what the workers were doing and tried her best to take note of the key procedures.

"After 3 hours, the Kernels from division 2 have absorbed moisture and flavouring as well.

So they get sent to this ’Worm screw system’, which separates them into individual tiny chunks too

And to give them a nice flat shape the corn kernels pass through two rollers..... and are then sent into an industrial oven via a vibrating conveyor belt.

The vibrating conveyor belt then shakes them ul as they pass through the oven, to make sure that they are all uniformly dried."

The more Muriel listened, the more impressed she became.

And just like that, they went to Division 4 which focused on adding Vitamins, minerals and so on into the flakes.

Of course, following that.... they passed through Division 5, which was concerned with packaging and boxing.

And when they went back to Division 6 on the ground floor, they focused on storage instead.

Muriel looked at the cereal box that read ’Baymard’s Corn Flakes’ in shock.

Most of the boxes had a rooster on it, next to a bowl of cereal.

But some also had Barbie on them, as well as superman on them.

Eh?

Did they really finish production just like that?

With their production tour over, everyone was immediately assigned to the different divisions.

And so just like that, Muriel had officially begun her career within the Food Industry.

But of course, what shocked Muriel the most..... was how shameless these Baymardians were in the face of new products

As a newcomer in Baymard, how would she have known?

A week passed by just like that, and it was finally the day everyone had been waiting for.

Today, she would taste these cereal thingies!

.

"Oh my God Muriel!

How the hell are you this slow?" Kate said while rushing her impatiently.

"Why are you in a rush?

Didn’t they say that we could get them at LakMart?"

(**LakMart was basically Walmart for the Baymardians)

Muriel didn’t understand why Kate was so much in a rush.

But 2 hours later, she felt like strangling her former self instead.

The duo left work and arrived at LakMart, but what they saw stunned Muriel silly.

Was this still the LakMart that she knew?

Wasn’t this just an arena instead?

People were pulling others down, jumping over each other and doing all other crazy stunts.

At first, she thought it was ridiculous.

But when she heard the salesmen announce that only 20 packs of cereal were left on the shelf, she immediately remembered her promise to her little brother to GET HIM A BOX.

She wanted to come up with a plan for her and Kate, but when she looked for her friend.... she realized that the girl was already serving the crowd ahead.

So with such motivation, how could she let herself hold the short end of the stick?

"Its mine!!"

"Over my dead body!"

"Better luck next time lady!"

"Hahahhaha... I have it... I have it!.... I...

No!!.... you give that back dammit!"

"Never!"

"I said its mine!"

Amidst the chaos and karate chops, she finally clawed her way out of the jungle after successfully grabbing a box.

She didn’t even care which one she grabbed, so far as it was cereal.

She laughed hysterically after paying for it, and placed the cereal within her coat as if she was scared that someone else would grab it from her as well.

Kate who had been waiting for her, looked at her for a full minute..... before they both burst out in laughter.

Kate’s lipstick was all smudged up, making her look like a clown..... and Muriel had lost one side of her shoes.

Their hairs look like they had just got out of a rock’n’roll concert, and their clothes were slightly torn as well.

"Welcome to Baymard Muriel.

This is your real initiation party!"

"I see!

I have now refreshed my ’shameless button setting’, and am now happy to be a part of you all."

"Hahhahahahahaha!"

They both laughed and got on a train heading back to their Districts.

Surprisingly, when they got on, they immediately spotted many people who looked exactly like them.

Everyone on the train laughed and retold their own fighting stories.

Muriel smiled and held her cereal box tightly.

She had no idea what she had taken.... but she decided to surprise herself once she went back home.

Soon, the train came to a stop at ’Dragon’s Breathe’ station within her district.... and she hurriedly made her way back home.

.

"Sis! Sis! Sis!

Did you bring it?" Asked her cute little brother.

"Of course!

Who do you think your sister is?"

With that, she opened up her coat revealing the cereal box.

"Wahhhh!

Sis.... you’re awesome!"

"Heh heh.... of course I am!"

"But sister.... why do you look like this?"

"_"

"Little Bobo do you want the cereal or not!"

"Sorry sis....sorry!

I want it!..... I want it!!"

"Eh!

Then sit here and let’s try it out."

With that Muriel went to the kitchen and got herself 2 bowls, 2 spoons and a cart of milk.

Now it was time for her to surprise herself.

What Cereal did she get?

Fruit Loops?

Well, it wasn’t the cereal from her sector.

But so what?

After the bloodthirsty battle that she had just gone through, how could she not want to try out her reward?

The only question she had now..... was which one came first, the cereal or the milk.

And would she need sugar in the milk?

After thinking about it for a while, she settled on pouring the milk into the bowl first..... before dropping the cereal in, bit by bit.

As for sugar, the cereal already seemed to have enough on it, so she felt like adding sugar would be excessive for this type of cereal.

"Little Bobo.... follow my lead!"

"Yes, sis!"

With that, Little Bobo followed her lead... and when the mixture of both milk and sugary fruit loops, gave a burst of flavour in his mouth.

The cereal was crunchy and felt like a party of all sorts of flavours.

He chewed and ate as fast as he could, and by the time he had realized it, the cereal that he had placed into the milk was all gone.

’MORE!’

He grabbed more and placed in his bowl again.... and surprisingly, he saw his sister doing the same too.

Muriel felt truly proud to be working for the cereal industry.

Ahhh!

If someone would’ve told her that this sort of thing existed, she would’ve definitely denied it wholeheartedly.

But now, staying in Baymard... A.K.A the land of magic, she had come to realize that the human brain was truly a treasure.

Little Bobo grabbed another handful again, and when he dropped it into his bowl.... it made a huge Splash!

’Splashh!’

Eh?

What was that?

Little Bobo looked at his bowl and found a wrapped up mini-superman floating in his bowl.

"Sis.... a toy just came out!"

Muriel looked at the toy and her eyes immediately lit up.

How could she have forgotten that these cereals had toys in them?

Little Bobo was so happy, as he unwrapped the toy.

He looked at the cereal box which said ’Collect them all’, and immediately made Muriel buy only this cereal for him from now on.

He wanted more action figures Dammit!

.

And so just like that, the Cereal fiasco in Baymard came to an end.... Or did it?
