12 Food Fighter Becomes a Cook

The sweet flavor of the pizza bread spread out in his mouth.

He could taste the crunchy onion complementing the greasy mayonnaise well. The combination of the sweet and sour taste of the catsup and the savory sausage went well with the overall taste.

Minhyuk was very surprised.

It was really much more delicious than normal pizza bread.

'I, I want to grab it from him...'

Binz wiped the drool off of his mouth. When he watched Minhyuk eat the food he gave him deliciously, his drool started to flow.

The moment Minhyuk finished eating all of the bread...

[True Worth of Food.]

[You have gained WIS+1 and INT+1.]

Minhyuk has now learned that the white light represented WIS and INT.

And the most crucial thing he has learned here was...

'The Sun's Wheat...'

Flour has a great impact on everyone's daily lives. It was almost on par with rice.

If anyone would walk around the streets, they would see plenty of ramen shops, pizzerias, bakeries and so on.

And you're telling me that there's a way for me to make it more delicious?

"I thought you'd like it. Was it delicious?"

"Yeeeees!"

Minhyuk answered with his back straight, nodding like a baby chick.

"Where can I get this Sun's Wheat? If it's a specialty, then can I buy it?"

Binz smiled bitterly at him.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you but the Sun's Wheat is no longer available."

"Eeeh?!"

It was a bolt out of the blue.

I can't believe that I can't get it anymore!

Are you saying that I won't be able to taste this delicious wheat anymore?!

At that moment, Minhyuk looked as if he lost everything in the world.

"I got the Sun's Wheat I used to make this bread from an NPC. The only reason why we can't get anymore Sun's Wheat is because the goblins took over the Bordy Plains. Bordy Plains is the only place where Sun's Wheat can grow."

"Are you saying that the goblins are blocking me from getting that delicious Sun's Wheat? How dare they...!"

Minhyuk looked completely furious. Binz smiled awkwardly at him. He was quite embarrassed.

"I didn't expect that you would be this upset... Anyway, that's the reason why Isbin Village will set up a subjugation force. They have 70 soldiers and will accept 30 volunteer users. They will give you the Sun's Wheat as a reward."

"I see. But why didn't you apply, Binz-nim?"

I believe Binz also likes food very much. So why didn't he apply?

"It's because of my level..."

"Ah......"

It was completely understandable. If you went to the subjugation force to hunt for low-leveled goblins then Binz wouldn't be able to participate because of the level limit.

"They will only accept users between Lv15~20. I heard about it in front of the subjugation force training center."

As I thought!

It was as if the Sun's Wheat was telling him: 'Come and eat me, baby!'

"Thank you for the information!"

"Wait. Let's add each other as friends?"

"Of course!"

He was someone who gave him food so he was like a benefactor to Minhyuk!

[Binz-nim is asking to add you as a friend.]Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com

[Yes / No]

"Yes."

[Binz / Berserker / Lv397]

Minhyuk bowed politely at him then turned around to leave.

Binz smiled as he watched his back disappear.

***

Today was the day that the subjugation force was set to depart.

That day, when Binz told him about the subjugation force, he directly went to the training center and applied as a volunteer.

Right now, Minhyuk was still in the pool. He was exercising before going in to access the game.

"I heard that the Bordy Plains Subjugation Force was not that good."

"Really?"

Minhyuk tilted his head in curiosity when he heard Changwook speaking.

"Why?"

"They would give you 10,000 gold and 5kg of Sun's Wheat as rewards but who would accept that?"

"I can shoot with the bow well."

"You?"

"I'm a lancer!"

"You?"

"I eat well."

"Is that so. Very good... Huh?"

Belo looked curiously towards the front. The one who spoke up front was a tall man.

"You're good at eating?"

"Yes. I am not picky and I can eat a lot of things!"

That man was Minhyuk. As he answered the soldier's question his eyes started to twinkle.

"Pfft, right! You're a foreigner who eats weeell!"

"Hehe, that's right!"

Minhyuk smiled brightly.

He realized something whenever he met NPCs like Valen, Roina and Allon. He would get benefits if he got close to them.

Of course they would think that his approach was definitely inappropriate but Minhyuk's wish was not that big.

It was just rations, rations and rations!

"To be honest, I only threw a small joke because the handsome soldier-nim looked tired!"

And in line with what Minhyuk said, the soldier looked really tired. He had no choice but to feel like that.

His superior scolded him earlier. He was angry at the abysmal number of volunteers for the subjugation quest. It must have been exhausting to be scolded even if it wasn't your fault.

Users usually say this to Soldier Rand.

'Can you not just do it like this?'

They probably hated the rewards. Many of the volunteers who apply came because it was a subjugation force, however they did not like the compensation.

"Is that so? Boy, it's been a long time since I laughed and it's all thanks to you. Huhu, did you know?"

"What is it?"

"I'm good at receiving naggings and scoldings! Bwahahaha!"

He then started to pound on his chest.

"Haha, that's very funny!"

"Hahahahahaha... haha... Uhm..."

Rand's face quickly turned sullen after laughing quite a bit. Minhyuk approached him and patted him on the back. He was trying to tell him to 'Cheer up!'

[Rand's favorability has increased.]

Belo, who was watching from behind, clicked his tongue.

'That guy's an idiot.'

What's the benefit of getting close to a soldier?

The others were looking at him strangely. They had the same reaction to what Minhyuk did.

You won't get a good quest or a higher reward from that soldier!

At that moment...

"The soldiers and the volunteers should go and eat first before we leave!"

Unlike the ordinary soldiers, the one who shouted was wearing an impressive, plate armor. It was the leader of the subjugation force.

Minhyuk's ears perked up and he quickly moved like an excited puppy when he heard the cry.

"You feed us too?"

"Of course. We're asking you to help us hunt so we shouldn't starve you."

"Wow! Wow!"

The investigation about the foreigners that Rand was doing was suspended for a moment.

The mealtime has started.

"Our Isbin Village cooks have the best food."

"......Oh!"

Minhyuk let out a small exclamation of surprise.

Soon after, the cooks started to distribute the food.

"Shit! Quick, we're going to leave soon!"

"Ah, what's this food! I'm eating this as soon as I logged in."

Some of the users were grumbling.

"It's been a long time since I tasted jjambap."

As in reality, the jjambap in Athenae was also not delicious. This was to follow the truth!

"Ah, soldier-nim I'll bring over your share too."

Minhyuk moved quickly to line up. He opened his eyes wide to look at the breakfast menu.

Then a soldier shouted...

"Hamburgers are prepared for the foreigners. Come and get your meals!"
