A little incident at the Enma-Tei

It was in the morning at the Enma-Tei inn, an inn outside of the human world managed by Beni-Enma. The master of Chaldea and her servants were hard at work, not only with aiding in the chores but also repairing the Enma-Tei's damaged areas. The Chaldea crew are doing this to both help Beni-Enma with preventing the inn from closing down and to not get cursed by the gods for opening a forbidden offerings box. After numerous situations that involved demon monkey's, heavy drinking party goers and a pillow fight that ended with the room being reduced to ash, Gudako and her servants gather together after they found themselves on the brink of their biggest task yet.

"I'm not going to sugar coat this, we may not be able to pull through this." Mashu said to everyone. "M-Mashu, normally this is where you say 'it may look tough but we can pull through it,' you are Mashu right and not some shapeshifting spirit here to demoralize us with misinformation right?" Gudako said with increasing worry and panic. "Fou fou fou fou." (special translation: She's real, trust me I checked. She is also right, those gluttons may as well be a small country). Kiyohime stood up with wide eyes in anger, "we wouldn't be in this mess if only someone here didn't post those 'all you can eat’ flyers all over the Enma-Tei." Everyone immediately looked at Tomoe with glaring expressions. "Really Tomoe, what were you thinking? Now we have all of the Artorias, Jeanne in her hungry summer form, Jaguar Warrior (surprisingly), and a few (not so small eating) berserkers!" Tomoe was looking at the floor in shame, only now was she realizing the full weight of the situation. "I have no excuse, I read about these 'all you can eat’ buffets in some western countries and believed that this would be a good way to gather gratitude for the offerings box. My thought process had stopped after that..."

"Well, now that our hole has been dug, all we can do now is try to climb out of it. Do we still have that cat willing to work in the kitchen?" Tamamo asked Mashu. "Yes, Tamamo cat has been informed of the situation and is willing to cook even if, and I quote, 'this cat has to rely on the forbidden shadow cat arts, it'll probably cost me some toe beans but that's the price to pay for good customer service.'" Gudako spoke up," I can also ask the red archer Emiya, he did say he wanted a vacation but I'm sure that he'll help once I bring up Artoria." Tomoe began to perk up thinking that all the problems are solved. "If we get Miss Enma then that should be make everything work out right?"

"I'm afraid not, the problem isn't that the number of cooks is too low but rather that there's not enough food to feed everyone. The amount of food now would only be enough to maybe satisfy the berserkers, not near enough for everyone else." Mashu said with a tone of despondence. "Please don't tell me that hunting and gathering food won't be enough," Gudako asked already knowing what the answer is likely to be. "Sadly yes, it is not enough. The buffet is in four hours and that's simply not enough time to gather and cook the amount we need."

"well I'm stumped, only other thing I can think of is either a thousand rice dishes from Touta or I use a command seal to make them less hungry without them knowing." As the master was listing off bad or impossible ideas, Tomoe was once again hanging her head in shame. "I'm deeply sorry for this everyone."

"Wait Chirp! Don't give up yet chirp!" A small voice from across the hall yelled in a high pitched voice."Hey it's one of the Sparrows, is there something you need?" Mashu asked. "I know of something that can help you all chirp!"
