Episode 722

‘Then I have no choice but to do my best.’

Lee Han quickly accepted reality.

Well, there is no way the club in Einrogard is just warm and friendly. S~eaʀᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Tak-

Fortunately, I had some groceries packed in my backpack just in case before coming to the kitchen club.

Butter, salt, pepper, cheese, salted chicken oil, mushrooms, flour, etc. from the eastern part of the empire.

Lee Han planned to prepare two dishes: a potato dish and a chicken dish.

If I had more time, more ingredients, and more people to help, I would have prepared a variety of dishes, but that wasn’t the case right now.

Lee Han boiled water in a pot, boiled and mashed potatoes. Then season with salt and sprinkle with pepper.

Spread butter on the pan, spread cheese, then some potatoes and mushrooms, then cheese again…

Most of the seniors who were concentrating on preparing their own dishes didn’t notice, but one senior next to Lee Han seemed to feel something was out of the ordinary.

First of all, it was quite surprising that a second-year student could bring out such a large amount of ingredients.

“…for a moment. Junior. “What are you cooking now?”

“Potato gratin?”

“Potatoes… gratin…?!”

“Don’t you know?”

“I know, I know. that. “Isn’t potato gratin usually like this?”

A kitchen club senior explained Einrogard-style potato gratin with a confused look on his face.

A dish where potatoes are boiled and mashed, then boiled and mashed potatoes are placed on top, then potatoes are placed on top, and finally potatoes are placed on top and baked in an oven.

“Isn’t that… just a baked potato?”

“That’s right… But that’s true. “Isn’t this also gratin?”

“I don’t think so, but…”

The shocked senior muttered to himself.

-Is that so? Was that gratin? But then what have I done so far? Who am I? What is Einrogard?

The disruption didn’t end there.

When Lee Han finished cooking the potatoes and took out the chicken, his senior, who was painstakingly pulling out the hard bronze feathers of a bronze goose, joined in.

“It’s a rock chicken. I chose some pretty good ingredients. “It’s hard enough to shatter your teeth, but if you cook it well, it’s hard enough to chew and swallow!”

The senior, who wanted to show off his knowledge to his juniors, explained various ways to make rock chicken soft.

Starting with letting it sit in a jar mixed with five deadly poisons for about a month, it goes all the way to borrowing an alchemist’s acid.

‘It’s just an ordinary chicken bought from outside.’

Lee Han felt slightly guilty the more his senior explained.

In fact, it was not a rock chicken.

“ruler. Junior. So how are you going to cook this?”

“First, I’m going to sprinkle some pepper and cover the pan with oil to cook.”

“?!”

The senior was surprised by the overly sumptuous cuisine.

‘Pepper’ and ‘oil’ were words that were hard to believe in Einrogard.

However, the junior did not notice the senior’s shock and continued to explain.

“In another pot, I’m going to make a sauce to go with the chicken dish. I’m going to boil the broth by adding butter and flour. I have some parsley I brought from the garden, so I added that too. “It would be nice to have more spices, but since it’s the beginning of the semester… how would you cook if you were a senior?”

Lee Han, who was explaining, was curious about his senior’s advice and asked.

The senior answered with a somewhat intimidated look on his face.

“I’m just going to put it in water and boil it.”

“……”

The Kitchen Club was one of the clubs in Einrogard that hired the most mercenaries on campus.

Although they stored a lot of valuable foodstuffs, riots and attacks sometimes broke out even during meals.

-Today’s menu is a bit simple due to the spirit flood. First, seaweed lasagna without noodle cheese sauce, seaweed soup, and seaweed cookies…

-…You crazy thieves are offering this to get gold coins!?

-You guys are full. You’re just going to eat whatever you give, why are you complaining?

-under! Throw it down! Open the warehouse! There’s a mountain of meat piled up in their warehouse!

Einrogard’s students tended to become irritable and violent when they were overly hungry.

And most of the students at Einrogard were hungry.

As such, when the quality of the Kitchen Club’s menu fell below a certain level, the restaurant would sometimes turn into a battlefield.

And even if it wasn’t to that extent, there were always complaints.

“This is a gold coin?”

“Woah haha. If you don’t want to eat it, turn it off…”

“You can give me ten gold coins!”

“?”

Falkrius paused at the student’s reaction.

The student’s friend next to him quickly stopped him.

“Shut up! “What if I raise it to ten coins?”

“???”

Falkrius was wary of this conversation, wondering if it was some kind of trap or a new tactic, but surprisingly, more students began to react in that way.

“The Kitchen Club has finally come to its senses! Yes, this is the Saint Iactus Club!”

“This is the first time I’ve eaten something that didn’t break my teeth! “Please continue to do this!”

“??????”

Falkrius headed to the back, suspecting that his juniors might have put psychoactive substances in the food.

But to his surprise, a rich and delicious smell greeted Falkrius. All of the gathered kitchen club members were looking at their junior in awe.

“…What happened?”

“Seniors. “Look at this!”

Falkrius received a bowl of food prepared by Lee Han according to the members’ words.

Then he held out a gold coin. Lee Han declined as he was a senior in the same club.

“I’m fine.”

“Phew. I’m not okay. really. Everyone who ate first should pay.”

“……”

“……”

The seniors held out gold coins with sullen faces.

Even though I already have no income today, there are additional expenses.

Rattling rattling!

After emptying his bowl, Falkrius looked at Lee Han with tears in his eyes.

I can’t believe they make food like this in Einrogard.

“The reincarnation of Saint Iactus has come here!”

“no.”

“Phew, it’s a metaphor! Come here. Junior!”

Falkrius hugged Lee Han tightly. A crackling sound came out.

Lee Han felt fortunate that he had learned swordsmanship and practiced how to extend magical power to his body.

If not, I might have died here.

“happy! Should I just fight again with the guys from other clubs?”

“That’s a bit…”

“Hahaha. I’m kidding! joke! Anyway, junior. It would be nice to come out often and cook often. “If only you were there, the number of restaurant attacks would be cut in half!”

After slapping Lee Han on the back, Falkrius left with a smile.

The remaining seniors looked at Lee Han with clouded faces. Lee Han sensed the hardships that would soon come.

‘As expected.’

Lee Han raised the reputation of the kitchen club, but at the same time, he monopolized the other seniors’ income.

Unlike Falkrius, who does not have much greed, other seniors are bound to be dissatisfied.

Lee Han, preparing for a magical battle, waited for his seniors to open their mouths.

“…Wardanaz junior.”

“yes.”

“…hire me!”

“yes?”

Lee Han was taken aback by the words that were different from what he expected.

Not a duel, surprise attack, or intimidation, but employment?

“no. Hire me! Did you see that I secured a bronze goose today? “That guy fell while picking mushrooms!”

“Is this kid crazy! “What you did was just pick it up!”

As Lee Han had prepared, the magic battle began.

…With seniors!

The kitchen club seniors started waving their canes at each other and fighting.

Lee Han, who was watching this calmly, immediately left the kitchen and ran away from Falkrius.

“Seniors!!!!”

“huh?”

Falkrius, who was walking far away, turned around in confusion when Lee Han came running towards him.

“Is there anything else you want to ask?”

“Seniors fight. “Please stop me!”

“why?”

“……”

Falkrius, seeing Lee Han’s expression, burst into laughter.

“I’m kidding, I’m kidding! Hahaha!”

“haha. It was really fun. Are you stopping me?”

“no?”

As Lee Han glared at him, Falkrius quickly explained.

“It’s usually better to wait a while before going into a fight like that.”

“ah. Only then will our feelings calm down and we can reconcile…?”

“That way, we can tire each other out and subdue each other.”

“……”

Falkrius really waited, and when the sound inside died down a little, he quickly jumped in.

Several pitiful screams followed by a crashing sound erupted, and then Falkrius shouted.

-Woohaha. come in!

The seniors were all kneeling and their canes had been confiscated. Some members muttered indignantly.

“Ugh. “If I had known that Senior Falkrius would come, I would have prepared.”

“Phew. Yes, I guess so. “But losers are silent!”

Falkrius laughed and asked why the members fought.

Lee Han was a little nervous at the question.

‘It’s not like I’m getting caught up in it either.’

In the eyes of Falkrius, who leads a club with a long history, it may have been difficult to tolerate the fact that seniors fought over working under juniors.

And in the first place, Lee Han did not fully understand why the seniors fought to work under their juniors.

“You said you fought to work under your junior?”

“yes.”

“So who won?”

“The senior came before victory or defeat was decided.”

“Well. “Then you couldn’t decide who would go in!”

Falkrius felt sad.

It would have been neat if only the winner could enter.

“…Seniors. Seniors.”

“Phew. ask. ask. why?”

“No… that’s it. “Can other seniors work under me?”

“Hahaha, when wizards do research, they don’t consider your age before entrusting you with assistance!”

The seniors nodded in agreement with Falkrius’ words and smiled pretentiously.

They did not want to work under their juniors because they were afraid of competing with the hard work of gathering ingredients.

As a true wizard, I just know that skill is more important than age.

“Isn’t it different from research…?”

“It’s similar! “There are still many members who are still with us!”

Kitchen club members didn’t necessarily cook alone.

As we gathered ingredients right away and planned a party, we often even had to cook together.

Occasionally, if there was someone preparing a large meal, it was customary to hire several members to do the work.

There were many times when it was better for the members to receive a stable salary rather than to collect materials for no reason…

“Phew. But it turned out to be difficult. “There is no winner.”

“hmm. “Then how about we just pretend it never happened?”

Lee Han, who did not want to give orders to his senior members, quietly spoke up.

But Falkrius shook his head loudly and said:

“no! decided.”

“How do you mean?”

“Let all the members here come in!”

“……”

While Lee Han was shocked, the seniors breathed a sigh of relief and clapped.

It was no exaggeration to say that the new junior was a food god.

Who else but the God of groceries can bring out that much food?

He was worried that he might get hit a few more times and not be able to get in, but it was indeed a decision worthy of a leader leading the club.

“As expected, it’s senior Falkrius!”

“Be fair like the Phoenix Tower!”

Lee Han whispered to Falkrius in an urgent voice.

“Isn’t it a bit too much for me to give orders to my seniors?”

“Um… no! “You can do it! Hahaha!”

I was glad to see the scene where Falkrius was destroyed earlier.

Otherwise, Lee Han would have definitely lost his temper and attacked his senior.
