Gino decided to feed the creature because he looked hungry and got a bruise-like mark on his arm.

When they reached the villa the creature had followed them there. Romano had the maids take a look at Gino's arm and called the Mayor over to talk about the statue. When having lunch with the Mayor, a man from the bank named Gustav comes in and tells the Maggioni that the bank is repossessing their property because of their father Antonio’s debt and kicks them out.

Outside, the Maggioni’s and Romano tried to figure out what had happened and what to do. The mysterious creature reveals that he is Coco the God of Poverty and Gino unknowingly entered a partnership with the god when he fed him a cookie, which caused misfortune to strike the Maggioni family.

After explaining what had happened both Erika and Dante decided to help her by gathering free ingredients starting at Pecora Plain.

After returning from Pecora Plain the Golden Branch Inn is ready for business. The Mayor also visited the Golden Branch Inn with Dante to check on the Maggioni.

A few days later both Dante and Erika visited the Golden Branch Inn with Erika suggesting that they go to Nevia Forest to gather other ingredients and Dante telling Patty the myth of the Haunted Mushroom.

There they meet Elias, a researcher belonging to the Institute of State in the Kingdom of Cassel, and learn about his past with Gustav. Elias moves to the Golden Branch Inn as a guest to help Patty gather ingredients like he did for his friend Siela and to do some research on Coco.

After Elias arrived in Cookoro Village, he was disappointed that there was no seafood in Cookoro Village due to the steep cliffs so Gino suggested they go to Marino Strada to gather ingredients for seafood.

With this Elias tells Bellatina that she reminds him of a Amiellia. Just then Dante and Erika come in. Dante admits that didn’t notice the change. Varl suggested that they visit the Dwarf to purchase new equipment for the tavern. With the limited info they have on where to find the Dwarfs, Dante suggests they see his dad claiming that he knows a Dwarf.

At the Mayor’s house both Patty and Dante ask Mayor Savarnie for the location of the Dwarfs and he gives them a map to Dwarf Hamlet and tells Dante to keep Patty safe.

When Patty arrives at Dwarf Hamlet she learns that due to the goblins the Dwarfs can’t sell her any equipment and both the Dwarf chief Mo Ku and his human blacksmith apprentice Hearth they both had little success in stopping the goblins.

Patty decided to help them. But both Mo Ku and Hearth are against this but give in and tell her to go to Dragonbone Hill and defeat the Goblin King.

After Patty and co. defeat the Goblin King. Both Mo Ku and Hearth were worried about her so they showed up to check on her. They were surprised to learn that they defeated the Goblin King and thanked them. Back at the Dwarf Hamlet both Mo Ku and Hearth are waiting for Patty.

Mo Ku tells her that Hearth should become the blacksmith for Cookoro Village for Patty as thanks for her assistance in dealing with the goblins and for him to put his skills to use. Both Patty and Hearth agree and Hearth heads for Cookoro Village.

As Patty comes down from the second floor she sees Golden Branch Inn employees, Erika, Dante, Elias, and Hearth she notices the tavern has been redecorated with Hearth’s furniture and ornaments made by Erika. As everyone is about to celebrate Bellatina starts to feel sick. Dante comments on her being sick with Erika calling him out for being rude that all humans get sick. With this Bellatina reveals that she is a Amiellia which shocked everyone except Stella since she knew. Everyone didn’t believe her due to her appearance until she showed them her long Amiellia’s ear. She tells everyone that back at her village she was treated like a freak because she was different and lift but she faced a similar problem in the human world because of her ears and kept it a secret from everyone. Elias tells everyone that Amiellia’s need to eat Sibelius Fruit to live is the reason why Bellatina feels sick because she didn’t eat any. Bellatina tells everyone that is still young so it is not that bad and in Marenia Sibelius Fruit is called Sanque Fruit. Everyone worried about her health convinced her to return to her village for Sanque Fruit. She reluctantly agrees and tells them they have to cross Verde Swamp to reach her home Albero Village and she is needed to enter.

On their way to Albero Village Patty and co. defeat a Great Crab blocking their path in Verde Swamp.

When Patty reached Albero Village Bellatina tells her Amiellia didn’t like humans and ignored the rude comments as they head for the Elder. At the Elder’s house he knows what his granddaughter Bellatina came for and he thanks Patty for taking care of her. This shocked Bellatina. The Elder tells them both that humans and Amiellia from Cassel hated each other because of a misunderstanding and changed once the misunderstanding was cleared up by a “Human” that saved them. When Marenia Amiellia heard about this they decided they needed to change as well. He then apologized for not accepting Bellatina for being different and he started to appreciate human cooking saving a cook who turned out to be Patty's father Antonio. Patty asks him where he went but the Elder didn’t know. The Elder then asks Patty to cook for the Village and she agrees as thanks for helping her father.

He becomes shocked when Patty tells him he went to pay off his debt and accidentally reveals that he had something to do with debt. As he tries to leave he bumps into Antonio and his boss Mr.Lorenzo. Antonio recognizes Gustav as the fraudster that tricked him. Hearing all this Mr.Lorenzo apologized to Antonio for everything and took Gustav to be punished. With Gustav losing everything so easily, everyone figures out that Coco was the cause which he confirmed. Coco tells everyone they can worship him but declines due to him being the God of Poverty.
