Episode 215
: Flames of Battle!
The Gourmet King burned down the darkness.
Focus solely on attacking without even thinking about avoiding the attacks coming from all directions.
The sight of him standing alone against an overwhelming number of creatures is nothing short of a hero.
Without even realizing it, my fist tightened.
‘Do you think the viewers felt this way too?’
Can I become that strong?
My heart throbbed as I watched the battle between the strong. Still, X did not miss the point. What is most important is the characteristics of contaminated creatures.
‘You never know when and where those guys will pop out.’
Arba Continent, East Continent, and even the disconnected continent.
As I said, it was on a different level from the creatures I had dealt with so far. If something like that came pouring in like it did during the Degur defense battle, I wasn’t confident I could stop it with my current skills.
‘It seems like there is a considerable cooldown for skills like light. Concentrate on avoiding the beams and do the real fighting later. But close combat is not easy either.’
Since working on the disconnected continent, X’s perspective has opened up. I now have eyes that can accurately see a level one level above that of a typical fate.
So I couldn’t help but admire the level of the gourmet king.
‘You’re really crazy, this guy. ‘What on earth are you eating and walking around?’
It’s incredibly strong!
Even excluding the skill that summons flame wings, levitates in the air, and emits large-scale flame magic in all directions, this is an incredible level of power.
What was most surprising was his tenacity.
Puk puk puk.
Thanks to the attack-oriented stance, the creatures’ attacks were landing on the Gourmet King’s body.
In terms of power, these are attacks that will make even X, whose health exceeds 2.5 million, feel cold.
But the Gourmet King was fine.
‘The faster you go beyond normal, the faster it gets, right?’
Burn countless creatures!
The more damage his wings received, the more brilliantly they burned as time passed.
When it seemed like a long time had passed since the fantasy began, X smiled sinisterly.
‘The duration is not normal, is it?’
I still didn’t know the name of the skill or how much mana was required to use it.
However, I was confident that I would not bow down to anyone if I had Mana Tong! Although it wasn’t as effective as the Gourmet King, it seemed like it could maintain the effect for quite a long time.
The long battle has come to an end.
The land, which had been engulfed by an alien energy, was burning with fierce fire as if it had never been so.
The population of creatures had decreased significantly. The Gourmet King’s eyes turned to the collapsed city.
X smoothed his chin.
‘There are probably no survivors.’
However, the contaminated rune stones would also have to be purified, and the creatures would have to be uprooted. Soon, the Gourmet King reached the collapsed city.
“....”
The Gourmet King gestured towards the village with an expressionless face.
Then, the city center and all creation began to turn into ashes and disappear.
The wings of flame began to lose their shine. The fantasy I saw for the first time in a while began to come to an end.
X didn’t stop thinking even though his vision was blurring.
‘Is there a certain amount of energy that can be released?’
A particularly brilliant final firework!
Perhaps it was an attack that squeezed out the last of its strength, but the wings of flame disappeared in an instant.
In any case, the moment this fantasy ends and a cheerful notification rings in your ears, you will automatically realize the effect of the skill.
X looked away instead of thinking.
Behind the scenes of the king of gourmet food.
‘If you have that kind of power, why are you pushing the work on me?’
After seeing his abilities, I couldn’t help but wonder even more. However, the Gourmet King seemed to have no intention of answering X’s question.
Instead of giving an answer, I muttered something to myself that made my already complicated brain even more complicated.
The Gourmet King’s mouth moves slightly.
“...it’s a cruel joke because it’s a blessing.”
His voice with a bitter smile was somehow lonely.
“He’s talking nonsense.”

Prepare to sail to the Eastern Continent!
At X’s request, Explorer guild members spread across the continent gathered together.
They were skilled in various fishing techniques and were making efforts to improve navigation in their field.
“Boss, even if you’re not good at it, it has to be strong enough to accommodate 300 people comfortably, right? But this thing is so big that even if just 15 people climb on it, the deck will collapse.”
“Uh huh, this guy did well last time? And when did I say I would get full price? Since we have a good relationship with you, I will gladly give you a 30% discount.”
“Only 30%? “If it’s successful, the advertising effect won’t be a joke, right?”
“Ugh, that’s good. No more half price!”
Because I didn’t know how long I would stay on the East Continent after arriving there. Here, it was better to buy a ship rather than rent it.
Asus laughed.
“And shouldn’t there be at least one decent ship in the territory that looks stylish?”
Asus, who succeeded in economical shopping by appropriately utilizing his familiarity and reputation, looked at the ship’s information.
[Old Veteran Galley]
A ship that has withstood all kinds of storms. Every time I walk on the deck, I hear a squeak.
Durability: 48%
Armor: 33%
Sailing speed: Very slow
“It’s time for a complete transformation.”
The greatness of remodeling!
It was a decision I was able to make because I personally witnessed the restoration of Xernis.
In fact, it is not easy to repair a galley of this size. Because a lot of work went into it, as well as professional skills.
However, Xernis had high-quality human resources that could not be easily found anywhere else in the world.
“Hmm, I can kind of get a feel for it.”
“The basic structure is no different from the ships I used to ride in my lifetime.”
“Then let’s get started right away!”
The Dongles and the Ghosts of Xernis!
Thanks to the melting glaciers, a sea route was opened to Xernis. Although it was not yet possible for many ships to come and go, at least one ship could be comfortably accommodated.
Knock knock knock.
Asus perked up his ears on a distant cliff.
“But the problem is that it attracts other people’s attention, right?”
Xernis has grown so big that it cannot be hidden!
It seemed like the residents of the surrounding villages had already noticed the changes in the frost storm cliffs. In such a situation, if this noise continues day and night, it will only be a matter of time before Xernis is revealed to the world.
Moreover, they are going on an expedition to the Eastern Continent. What if forces targeting Xernis appear during that gap?
In fact, even the third party, Asus, was worried. Asus wiggled his eyebrows.
“But I guess our lord told you not to pay attention?”
do not worry!
That’s what X said.
X still regularly sells food to himself in exchange for gold.
Asus could also guarantee that X would never make a decision that would result in a loss. To put it simply, I had faith.
“Yes, this is Xernis, how did I raise it?”
The fruits of labor and flattery lie in every single brick of the castle wall!
There was no way that Lord X Lee Ji-won did not know that the day when Xernis was revealed to the world was imminent.
He could also expect that there would be plenty of people targeting Xernis while he was active on the eastern continent.
So Ji-won Lee said,
“I have to hit the player.”
I was tapping on the keyboard.
Ride, ride, ride.
Lee Ji-won, who logged in to the Mage homepage without hesitation and accessed the Mage streamer page, quickly left an announcement.
It was the second streaming preview following the New World dungeon raid.
《Love House!》
I invite viewers who are like family to my territory. Cute surprise guests, even residents, are waiting!
