Chapter.38 Without You I

once heard that there are many gourmets among dragons. It’s a race with such a developed sense of taste, but when I took a quick look, it didn’t seem to have anything to eat.

Even if you eat it, it’s almost like swallowing an animal whole.

Literally the worst eating habits.

So, I wandered through the forest with the intention of catching fish with this strategy. There were no living animals roaming around near the lair, perhaps because of its fear. There is not a single fish alive in the valley, nor a single common animal.

So I had to come down the forest for a while. There is a rare spot near the summit, but I didn’t feel it until I got all the way down to the flat area below the mountain.

If so, this area is suitable for animals to live.

I started observing the forest to find food ingredients. I hadn’t even walked that far when the animals barged their teeth.

“Krrrrrrr-!”

A wild animal with spotted markings resembling a leopard attacks me. It was clawing with its claws and drooling profusely as if it was hungry.

Umm.

It’s a pass.

Carnivores like that don’t taste very good.

I used attack magic to send the approaching leopard or jaguar away, and then attempted to search again.

Since that guy was running this way and attacked me earlier, I guess I should trust my carnivore instincts.

So I walked in the direction the jaguar was heading.

The result is correct.

As I walked, I came across a small plain in the thick forest, and there I caught a scene where a pig-like thing was sticking its head into a tree and digging into the ground with its hind feet.

chubby.

Even just looking at it, it looks delicious. wild pig. So, wild boar. Is this wild Uva?

This is perfect. I found the perfect ingredient to disrupt the dragon’s sense of smell and immediately poured magic on it.

But damn it.

It’s good that I caught it, but thinking about it going up to rare again makes me sigh.

I feel like I made a useless bet, but I guess I have to open my mind to tell him about my past.

Right now we can’t communicate at all.

Hoping that this bet would be the spark that would spark conversation, I dismantled only the necessary parts and climbed to the top.

The game starts from here.

I took out various seasonings from my backpack. Even when traveling alone, it is essential to carry basic cooking utensils.

These tools are also essential for this bet to work.

The dish to be prepared is Uva Galbi. It’s also seasoned Uva ribs.

I chose it because it was the dish that most stimulated my sense of smell among the dishes I could make in this situation.

Using magic, the center of a large stone is carved out and the Uva ribs are marinated in a sweet and soy sauce-based sauce.

Since the meat is very fresh, there is nothing more to be done.

Of course, all of this work was taking place right under the dragon’s nose.

If you want the smell to spread well, you have to do it in front of the nose, so where else can you do it?

Even through this series of processes, the black dragon is still crouching as if it has no interest.

Let’s see how long I won’t be that interested.

I resumed cooking with a resolve burning in my heart that I would win.

Find a flat stone and heat it with a fireball. If you heat a stone to a temperature similar to that of a fireball, there is not much difference from a grill.

In particular, heated stones do not cool down well.

If you put your hand on it, your hand will get burned.

I put the marinated Uva ribs on top of the stone that had reached that temperature.

Cheeeeeek-!

The meat began to cook with a delicious sound. As the sweet sauce cooks, it spreads its scent throughout the rare dish.

Ugh.

I can’t stand it.

I’m used to this, but this is the first time I’ve ever smelled a dragon that stimulates my appetite.

I glanced at the crouching dragon. The body twitches ever so slightly.

But I didn’t look back or anything. They are still complaining that they are not interested.

Then, let’s start the mukbang.

Even if I’m not, I’m still hungry. I picked up the well-cooked Uba ribs with chopsticks.

Sauce drips down. I brought the soft-looking meat to my mouth.

“Oh melt, melt, melt!”

... To be honest, that’s nonsense.

Still, given his eating habits, the fact that he couldn’t stand the smell and ate it is hopeful.

I can’t stand it anymore.

It was better.

Just raid the scene. In any case, on-site arrest is the best way to ensure that no one can escape.

The criminal ate all the meat that was left behind.

If it wasn’t delicious, I would have eaten one and spit it out. This fact is the biggest. In other words, you may want to eat it again. Let me take a look at the final fate of a dragon that once awakened its eyes to delicious food.

With a wicked smile on my face, I grabbed Uba again and started grilling it.

Cheeeeeek-!

The smell spreads again along with the sound. The dragon started twitching continuously.

This is what it means to dig your own grave.

“Are you full? “Let’s go to sleep soon.”

I put all the steaming meat aside, cooled the stone plate with magic, and then lay down and closed my eyes.

How are you going to approach it?

Yesterday was a long time ago and I wasn’t sure, so I thought it would be better to let him taste it first, so I really slept, but today is different.

I closed my eyes for a moment.

I kept winding it.

There is no movement at all for a while.

Are you very careful?

It smells like that, so you probably won’t be able to stand it once you taste it, right?

Was it really bad?

As I closed my eyes, all kinds of thoughts started to come to mind. That’s not possible.

You have to win the bet. And this night is the last.

I was patient, hoping that I wouldn’t have much patience. So many hours.

While the battle of wits continued, we finally caught movement. And the movements were very careful. So it’s not a dragon’s movement.

Very light. There was no pounding at all.

If you want to move a large body, of course you have to make sound. But it doesn’t fly.

Well, considering that I couldn’t wake up at all yesterday, I guess this guy polymorphed and caught the fish, just as I guessed.

I woke up to that very scene. Then I looked at the stone where the meat was gathered.

A scene that caught my eye.

I couldn’t believe it for a moment.

Because there was a pretty young black-haired girl holding a lot of meat in her hands.

It’s already in your mouth. There is a lot of sauce around the mouth.

“Mr. Dragon. Did you polymorph? Hehehe, it’s my victory.”

When I said that, the dragon blinked a few times, then ignored me and started eating the meat.

“Is it okay if I ignore it?”

“This is a dragoi!”

Wow. Now, excuses that make no sense.

Moreover, because my mouth is full of meat, I can’t pronounce it properly, and because I’m not in a dragon state, it doesn’t even have a dignified sound.

“So are you human?”

“Why this moi!”

They say it’s not a dragon. Aren’t you even human? I do it in various ways.

I smiled and walked forward. Then the dragon started to back away.

“die.”

He says that and tries to use magic. No, magic has already appeared in my hands. There’s meat in your mouth.

“Black Dragon.”

So I called him and he stood up and looked at me.

“What.”

I admitted it now. When I called him by his nickname, he admitted. He was a simple guy.

“Kaaak?”

Then, for the first time, he broke his cool face and puffed out his cheeks with embarrassment instead of coldness.

what. This dragon.

Why are you so cute?

When I first saw this black dragon in human form, I was taken aback.
