355 Level-Ups After Eating Food Only

96. Two Meatballs

Lucaro came into the kitchen.

He put on his cooking hat and put on his cooking clothes. Min-hyuk was dressed like that.

"One thing I can tell you, Tamer, is that the first thing about cooking is hygiene."

"Yes."

Min-hyuk answered once, but I had no choice but to question Tamer.

And Lukaro began to boil the kidney he had been given before. After boiling the kidney, dump the first water and boil it again.

His movements were discreet and accurate.

'Fantastic.'

Min Hyuk looked at him and admired him small. He was showing his father-in-law in the process of making red gold.

There was no error. I didn't use a meter separately, but I poured the right amount of water and lit it at the right time without using a timer.

And smash the kidney with one hand.

But it didn't look relaxed. because he could only use his right hand.

"I'll do it."

"Will you do that?"

Lucaro with a little smile.

I began to break Min-hyuk's well-boiled kidney.

And looking at that, I stepped in to make a dough.

Then there was a smile on my mouth.

"They say that food that passes the preliminary contest is bought from the territory at twice the price, and they also say that the bread that is bought will be distributed free of charge to the territory."

Lucaro rejoiced at the thought that free bread would satisfy those who were hungry.

I also tried my best to pass, and my mouth was full of smiles of joy.

Just as Min Hyuk wanted to eat delicious food, he was always happy and happy to think that others were feeding him their bread.

His hands are swollen! Every time I move, the finely ground flour scatters.

Every time a drop of sweat flowed, I wiped it off with a handkerchief.

He was doing everything he could.

What I saw in him was, literally, a brilliant craftsman.

Even though he was just making a loaf of bread, he was pouring out all his strength, and amazed at the mouth of Min-hyuk.

"With one hand..."

A loaf of bread doughed with the milk of a mountain goat wrapped in red bean gold enters the oven.

The bread in the oven begins to ripen quickly.

Luca smiles like a child in front of him.

When I admire him, I hear notification from Min-hyuk.

[You've seen the process of making a true artisan chef's dish.]

[Increases your understanding of cooking greatly.]

[Gain 100 dexterity.]

[Increases the flavor of your cooking by 30.]

And Luca took out a loaf of bread from the oven.

As he tears one of his short breads to the sides, the sand dunes heat up.

The collar of Min-hyuk moves quietly.

What about the gold in the half-breads?

Lucaro, torn in half, gives him a loaf of bread. Freshly made bread.

The only people who can taste it are the ones who made it.

I can feel the warmth of the bread. In between, I feel a little hot red bean sprouts, and when I roll my tongue and eat it, I smile.

"It's really delicious...!"

"Here, have some mountain goat's milk."

Whip, whip.

I drank the milk of the cool mountain goat while eating the tender red bread.

The bread that was left in my mouth melts away.

Then, a gentle, clear throat, and a breath of 'after' came out by itself.

[An artisan chef ate amazing bread made with all his might.]

[This will relieve hunger for a week and gain +20% Energy.]

[He ate the kidney bread of a tall man.]

[You will be able to choose which buff to apply to your buff abilities.]

"……!"

Min-hyuk was frightened and looked at Lucaro.

"It must be important to have excellent cooking skills, but I hope this bread will make those who feel hungry in the land happy."

There was only one reason why Min Hyuk was surprised.

You can control which buff you put in your cooking.

And by eating Lukaro's cuisine, he was on his way to a new level.

'This is possible because I am a dieter.'

If ordinary people had eaten bread, there would have been no enlightenment about cooking like he did.

And Lukaro took his loaf of bread, wrapped it in a beautiful wrapping paper, and headed towards the Lordship.

* * *

Dinner of the gourmet dragon.

There are eight judges on the board and in the qualifications of the competition.

Seven of the eight judges were famous for their excellent taste, and there were culinary researchers on the master's level, real artisan chefs, ingredients seekers, and eccentric foodies.

And the other one was a contestant, a cook, and a lord, Anton.

In addition, all pre-qualified food from the Dinner of the Expression Dragon is already unclear as to who made it.

The reason was to not look at man, but to judge by the food alone.

And Anton.

He listed the best dishes from seven foodies.

Lord Anton saw four foods listed before him.

"What was the best dish you picked?"

At that question, seven foodies said without hesitation.

"Beef jerky."

It was said to be a preliminary competition, but the dishes were quite spectacular.

A candy made to taste good after chopping sugar from crab meat made by hunting Kraken.

It was a pilaf glamour created using beef itself. Anton was annoyed by the fact that the most ordinary and insignificant single kidney bread had appeared in the preliminary round, which is the best.

Seven foodies and Anton were judges, but they were definitely different.

Seven gourmets are something Anton can't control.

'What happened to the mouths.'

I thought their glorious past was gone by now.

"……?"

Anton cuts a loaf of bread with an invisible grin.

At that moment, Anton had no choice but to lose his word.

Soft grain of bread, moderate dough.

And the sweet jewels in it.

It's quite sweet. If it's too sweet, you'll get a sense of rejection.

However, this sweetness was moderate, so I feel much better.

"How is it? Isn't it delicious?"

"An ordinary ingredient that produces the best food. It's like you're looking at your past appetite."

And Anton's eyes closed and tasted without knowing it, and his voice woke him up.

He caught the taste of mountain goat's milk at the end.

'Deo, who the hell made the mountain goat's milk!!'

The frightening man did not tolerate it.

"The maker of this bread. Are you the chef of Paradise Restaurant?"

"The owners of these dishes will be known soon, so bear with them."

It was the voice of the foodies, and Anton tasted each dish.

And I thought I knew why the judges called bread the best.

'They are just too glamorous. On the contrary, this bread is not glamorous but just delicious.'

And when all the evaluations were complete, the identity of the culinary master was revealed.

Anton has already given the best score on short bread.

The soup made from the flesh of the Kraken he had eaten was made by the chef of paradise.

Other excellent dishes are also made by the best chefs in the territory.

And a loaf of bread.

[Lucaro.]

"…….!?"

Anton is appalled, Lucaro. Bread made by the progeny of the appetite!

He was not so embarrassed.

And here comes the screaming.

"Lucaro. I shouldn't have drawn his hand."

"That's right. I don't know who it is, but that stranger, Lucaro, broke the hand of a gifted man." "

And a foodie asks,

"Who is it?"

"Hmmm!!"

Foodies from all over the world!

They were not the people of Ilvero's territory in the first place.

Anton denies their criticism with an empty cough.

But what are we going to do? He gave himself a pass on Lucaro's bread.

'Damn it.'

The main competition for the finalists will take place tomorrow. And it's the day of the gourmet dragon.

* * *

The announcement of the winner. There were countless people gathering in front of the square.

And Lucaro and Min-hyuk were also there.

And within it, there were those who blamed Lucaro.

"To serve such a scumbag, leave our lands!!"

"Lucaro!!! You are a disgrace to our lands!"

"Are you missing a hand? You want me to rip your limbs off?"

What corrupt chefs spit out.

But Lucaro did not lose his pride in it.

Someone shouted.

"You will never pass the Qualifier!!"

And Min-hyuk laughed at them.

'Are you jealous of his talents?'

They're just jealous. It's just an excuse to insult people by serving their appetites.

He's just insulting his genius with inferiority.

You don't have to face it this way.

Right then, the acceptor statement came up.

And the highest rated dish.

The owner of the dish was on top.

[Lucaro. Beefcake.]

"……!"

All chefs were appalled. How do you do it with one arm?

What was even more surprising was that the dishes he cooked were commonly called single kidney bread.

But something unexpected happened.

"The dishes of those who qualify will be distributed free of charge. But with the exception of bread loaves."

"……!?"

Lucaro gives him a curious look.

"Oh, why the line!?"

"This bread with the power to feed hunger for a week doesn't really fit in here as a cook's territory. If everyone is satisfied for a week, the revenues of every restaurant will plummet greatly, the Lord's decision."

"……!"

Lucaro.

I didn't even enjoy the joy of passing the preliminary round for long. I just wanted to give bread to the hungry!!

And Lukaro thought,

'I will continue to do this.'

Maybe there 'll be an ambush tonight.

And next to him, Min-hyuk says.

"You can't share the bread we made together? What's all that about?"

"…… What are you talking about?"

And Lucaro's face was frozen solid.

"Yes?"

When Min Hyuk turned around, he said.

"Us? I made it."

"……?"

Lucaro's expression was endlessly cold.

And he says,

"Don't get me wrong. Mr. Tamer, it's my cooking, not ours."

And Lucaro says it again.

"I'm disappointed that I'm with someone like you. Get the hell out of my territory!! This is how you repay me after I've taken out a scumbag!?"

"……."

Min-hyuk lost his word.

And Lucaro's words were finished.

'Tomorrow, the lands of Ilbe will disappear from the world as planned.'

And Lucas dies, and everyone in this room dies.

Lucaro guessed.

A gourmet dragon is not satisfied, as long as someone stops him.

Lucaro wants to send him away.

Only to save yourself.

"Get lost!!!"

Such was the heart of sadness, the words, but Lucaro's eyes were forever engulfed in sorrow.

And I knew Min-hyuk.

'Why have you put me through this? I save Lucaro, I save this land.'

And the mythical wheat of the sun as a hint.

"Kaaak!!! How humiliating! How disappointing!"

Min-hyuk spit. Lucaro must have kept pushing himself away.

I'd rather do what he wants. In the meantime, make his mind at ease.

Instead.

"Since I've been working with you so far, why don't you just tell me where the Wheat of the Legendary Sun is!"

"Now, what are you going to do with the legendary Wheat of the Sun...?"

Lucaro is astonished. How do you know the wheat he descends from legend?

But more than that, I learned that the Wheat of the Legendary Sun is a little farther away from the territory of Ilbero.

"Min-hyuk, as a wanderer, you should not die here, but if you go there, you can live. '

Lucaro said angrily.

"Beyond that rock to the closest to the sun lies the wheat of the legendary sun. Now if you know, get lost!!"

He didn't look back after Min-hyuk said that.

And in countless crowds. He's gone.

Min-hyuk thought as he left.

'I'll be right back. Lucaro. "

On the contrary, Lukaro thinks.

'Go far, and live as long as you will.'

The next morning is bright with different ideas from each other.

And the Dinner of the Food Dragon began.
