Before the invasion of the Demon World’s Commander-in-Chief Rufel, Minhyuk had used 400,000 contribution points to purchase the ‘Chinese Cuisine Set’ from the ‘Food God Shop’ after he rescued Prince Argon. At the same time, Prince Argon, who was a vegetarian, was eating the salad that Minhyuk gave him after his stomach complained of hunger.
Minhyuk believed that it was quite a relief.
‘Huhu. If Prince Argon-nim ate meat then I would have been in great trouble!’
Along with those thoughts, the Fantastic Chinese Cuisine Set appeared in front of him.
‘My goodness......!’
Ganjjajang, jjampong, over there were some tangsuyuk placed side by side with the mandarin roll and a chili japchae. When the set of food appeared in front of him, a smile immediately formed on Minhyuk’s face.
He had purchased this set first and foremost so he wanted to taste it quickly. He grabbed the wooden chopsticks that came with the set and ripped it apart. Then, he poured the ganjjajang sauce in a bowl filled with noodles.
“Hiyaaa......”
Minhyuk drooled over the gleaming black sauce that he poured all over the bowl. The onions looked crunchy and the juice seemed to be overflowing with juices.
And, doesn’t this ganjjajang look darker than the regular jjajangmyeon?
He mixed everything well, making sure to poke the fried egg on top and mix it together with the rest of the dish.
‘It seems like the development team really knows how to eat, huh?’
Sometimes, there were days when the ganjjajang would only have one quail egg in it but the ganjjajang that was included in the Chinese Cuisine Set that was purchased through the Food God Shop had two fried eggs on it.
After mixing everything well, he turned his attention towards the tangsuyuk. He divided the dish in half and poured sauce on top of the other half while leaving the rest untouched. The other half was for him to enjoy the crunchy and crispy texture of the meat while the other half was for him to enjoy the soft texture of the skin that was coated with sauce.
Well then, all the preparations are done.
He first picked up the ganjjajang. He made sure to get a chopstick full of noodles and egg before slurping it together in his mouth.
Crunch, crunch—
The pleasant sound of crunching from the crispy onions resounded in his mouth. In addition, he found out that the ganjjajang that was purchased in the Food God Shop had a really strong flavor.
“Wow. Delicious!”
His shoulders twitched in happiness.
After eating the ganjjajang noodles for quite some time, he turned towards the tangsuyuk and picked one that had not yet been soaked in sauce. Just like that, he dipped the piece in the sauce and placed it in his mouth.
Crunch, crunch—
The crunchy ‘dipped’ tangsuyuk always gave off a pleasant sound as he chewed on the excellent texture of the meat. This time, he picked up a piece of tangsuyuk from the ones that were soaked in the sauce.
‘Ah. This is really an art!’
The fried skin of the ‘poured’ tangsuyuk that had been poured with the sauce was soaking with the flavorful sauce. After eating the tangsuyuk like that, he reached out for the jjampong next.
When you’re eating jjampong, you will crave for jjajangmyeon. And when you’re eating jjajangmyeon, you will crave for jjampong.
He stirred the jjampong well with his chopsticks, making sure that the mussels that were smaller than two of his fingers and the squid and onions were all mixed together. After stirring everything together, he lifted not just the noodles, but the entire bowl before blowing on it gently. Then, he sipped the warm soup and savored its flavor.
“Refreshing.”
He couldn’t relate to the adults’ words back when he was younger when they said that it was refreshing to drink spicy soup but now, the words flowed out of his mouth easily.
Only after tasting the spicy soup did he use his chopsticks to clamp, inhale and slurp the noodles. He also dipped some raw onions on the chunjang before placing it in his mouth.
Crunch, crunch—
After eating the jjampong, he turned towards the manadarin rolls. The mandarin rolls were warm as if they were just taken out of the fire.
Then, he stretched his chopsticks towards the chili japchae. The chili japchae was a dish that was stir-fried in chili oil and had a spicier and deeper flavor than normal japchaes. Various ingredients like red pepper, green pepper, onion, and pork neck were stir-fried together resulting in the colorful and appetizing dish in front of him.
He placed the chili japchae on top of the mandarin roll before placing everything in his mouth.
Munch, munch—Updated chapters at novelhall.com
The first taste that entered and spread in his mouth was the flavor of the spicy chili japchae which was then followed by the soft and warm flavor of the mandarin roll. The taste was something that put a smile on his face so he closed his eyes to savor them deeply.
Grin—
A chuckle unknowingly escaped from his lips.
‘Wow, the food in the Food God Shop is comparable to the real God’s Legacy Dish......’
‘I wonder how Minhyuk-nim is doing these days?’
When he and the miners thought that they would be wiped out, the chef that laughed and mined with them killed the enemies with his ghostly movements. He was truly a kind, polite and wonderful man. Before they parted, Ruan had asked him......
‘How can I be as strong as you?’
‘Eat well, exercise hard and sleep well!’
After saying something absurd, he turned around and stopped walking as he smiled at him.
‘Ruan-nim, I’ll see you at the top.’
The memory of that time brought a smile to his face.
‘Yearning......’
That was right. He was longing for that. For the real power that this world’s strongest did not show. Influenced by Minhyuk’s words, he had been reborn and had become a great guild master.
‘It’s been a while since I’ve seen him. I should send him a whisper later.’
And right at that moment, other demons appeared. What was worse was that these demons did not include the demons that they were struggling to kill earlier.
“I guess this bastard is the boss.”
“Kekeke. I want to kill him more painfully.”
‘Don’t touch me. I’ll die if you just leave me alone.’
The demons approached him with a weapon called flamberge. Flamberge was a brutal weapon that could tear apart the flesh. He did not feel any real pain but it was not refreshing or nice to feel his throat being cut off.
But then......
Fwoosh, fwoosh!
Ruan, who had closed his eyes in defeat, suddenly heard a strange sound coming near.
‘What?’
Clip, clop, clip, clop.
His enemies were taken down. Then, one guy said......
“Ruan-nim, hello! You’ve become a great guild master now, haven’t you? Wow!”
“......M, Minhyuk-nim?”
Minhyuk had arrived at the outskirts of Elvenheim’s A Area. He was as polite, cheerful and handsome as ever.
“Mi, Min......”
But before he could even finish saying his words......
He had blacked out. And when he opened his eyes again, he saw that his guild members were all surrounding him.
“GM-nim, are you alright?”
“Mi, Minhyuk-nim!”
He leapt up and looked around him. But there was no one else in sight. However, his eyes widened not long after.
“Wh, what’s this? How am I alive?”
About 80 demons and demonic monsters attacked them. Their numbers were beyond what their guild could handle.
“A man suddenly appeared and wiped them out. He said that he was close to Ruan-nim. He even had his own troops. GM-nim, do you know him?”
“It took him about 3 minutes, I think?”
“Isn’t he very strong?”
Ruan saw the bandage that was wrapped around his arm. He used to wear these bandages before. He grinned as he caressed the bandage.
“This is why I admire you.”
The Frying Pan Killer. He was still as polite, cheerful and wonderful as ever.
Notes
[Chunjang, 춘장] - Sauce used in jjajangmyeon.
[Elf King’s name] - Okay, so ngl, I was shooketh. Anyway, at first it was written as Coronesia so I thought, yeah, cool name. Then, in this chapter the esia was gone?! Apparently it’s just Gorn. So we will continue to use Gorn as the Elf King’s name.
