Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking - Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking chapter 51

Episode 51. The real one has appeared

“For that matter, many adventurers’ guilds around the world will soon receive a new request. Investigate the suspicious movements of the devil.”

“Certainly, if the lords knew this fact, they would start the quest right away. If they were normal people.”

Of course, not all lords in the world are normal.

There are also crazy lunatics mixed in.

If the devil invades such a territory…

‘Ah, I don’t even want to imagine.’

“After a rough investigation like that, there will be a Continental Congress where the king and lords gather.”

“…The Continental Meeting? That’s a huge event right? How does Mr. Jeon know about that?”

I briefly explained what had happened in the lord’s castle in Salem.

After hearing the story, she stared at me for a while.

“You…”

“I think we’ll meet at Lucky Land this time. Just in time…”

“What’s that! That’s a jackpot! It’s a big scoop!”

She was very excited, but I calmly continued talking.

“That’s not good news. Things are different now compared to the first anniversary event.”

“Huh? Oh, is that so?”

Ms. Laura hurriedly corrected her expression.

However, the color of her face, which had already been recalled, showed no signs of calming down.

She took a deep breath and then opened her mouth again.

“Whew… I’m sorry. I’ll calm down a bit. Anyway, is this why I like Mr. Jeon?”

Except for Laura, all of the guys’ eyes turned to me at once.

“You guys are misunderstanding Laura.”

“Huh? What?”

“No… Anyway, as Laura knows, if she doesn’t prepare really thoroughly, there will be many casualties.”

“Hmm… I guess so.”

I said with a very serious expression.

“So Laura, please write well so that people can be alert and prepare in advance.”

“I see what you mean. I think I was too excited earlier. I wasn’t talking about laughing and talking.”

“No. It’s such a job, so I understand.”

She suddenly took out her pen and paper and started scribbling something in her.

It is probably a draft article for the daily newsletter that will be published tomorrow.

For a while, only the sound of the pen nib cutting through the paper continued.

It was a great concentration.

With everyone staring at her, I moved to my seat alone.

I turned on the fire in the brazier, which had been turned off, and put the pot containing the previously unset rice on the brazier.

‘Everyone worked hard, but we should eat a hearty lunch.’

Even so, the dishes I can cook are still limited.

However, since there are more and more types that can be made, this is a problem that will be solved sooner or later.

“Aww!”

“Huh?”

Rin has arrived at some point.

She told me not to come close to the pot, and held onto my leg in a slightly distant place.

“Rin, are you hungry? Wait a minute. The old man is cooking. And it’s dangerous here, so stay with the unnies.”

She nods her head eagerly and runs away again.

Just looking at that guy makes me feel like all my worries disappear.

The preparation of the meal was completed in an instant.

Invested the skill points obtained by increasing the chef level into ‘Master of Cooking’.

Thanks to my skill level rising up to level 5, my cooking skills are incomparable to before, and I can make recipes with my eyes closed if I have already learned them.

‘But that doesn’t mean the speed at which the rice cooks in the pot is shortened.’

Freshly cooked rice and bulgogi.

Starting with jeon and boiled potatoes, he prepared several side dishes that could be easily made and served them on the table.

At this level, it could be said that a table of Korean food is not bad for a meal.

The only regret is that kimchi and soup were missing.

With that in place, I can now open a Bulgogi Baekban restaurant in the downtown area of the city.

‘I’ve made Western-style soup, so should I try soup next?’

Kimchi is difficult, so I plan to postpone it until later.

First of all, getting red pepper powder is an urgent priority.

Of course, I have no idea how to make naan, kukdo, or kimchi.

In the end, you have to go through a lot of trial and error.

‘There are so many dishes I want to make… I need to prioritize them.’

What is urgent right now is to prepare for the upcoming demonic invasion.

It will be difficult not to take damage at all, but you should aim to block it with minimal damage.

That’s why I’m trying to quickly raise my chef level, and for that I’m focusing on developing a new menu.

In addition, the money earned through the trade should be spent on raising the attributes.

The stronger the buff effect of my cooking, the easier it will be to block the demons.

“Let’s eat, guys!”

Sit down one by one at an empty table.

I stared at Mumu and Melissa.

‘Should I take them to that dangerous place?’

The biggest concern these days is whether to take those two guys to the site of the demonic invasion.

If you take them, you’ll have to raise their levels quickly as soon as this business ends.

If that’s too difficult, they should be left in this village.

The same goes for Lin.

‘Do I still have to go as far as I can?’

Raising the level with attributes is not that difficult if Lemon and I help.

In addition, there are buff dishes, so if you hunt monsters that are much stronger than your current level, your growth will be instantaneous.

While I was thinking about various things in my mind, Laura, who had finished drafting the article, approached me and asked.

“…What is all this?”

“What about lunch?”

“No, I’m not asking that…”

“It’s Korean food. Ms. Laura may not be familiar with it.”

“I know that too! What I want to ask is how many servings of Bulgogi, sold for 2,000 gold, in one meal. Besides, how many dishes are there?”

“Korean food is like this.”

“No… I’m not having a party…”

There is a huge amount of food on the table right now.

“Kids eat a lot more than I thought. Lemons are also huge eaters. You’ll be surprised to see them.”

“Your cooking is all delicious! Isn’t it?”

“Yes! It’s so delicious.”

“Aww!”

“I know that because I eat tacos too…”

I said with a smile.

“Laura-san, sit down too. We’ve had enough.”

“Hey… Really? This doesn’t get paid, right?”

“You’re going to write an article, right? Then you can eat it.”

“Of course! Didn’t you see I was writing an article earlier?”

“Okay, sit down. Everyone is waiting.”

“Oh, yes!”

But I made it clear.

In exchange for writing an article, they treat you to a meal.

It doesn’t matter if I just give it to you, but I might have to use her article again in the future.

‘Ah, is this what Lemon is saying to me? Don’t threaten me with food?’

But I think differently.

At the point of selling for money in the first place, my cooking is a commodity.

What else would be a problem if you use it for trading?

‘Of course, saying that they would starve was a joke.’

Ms. Laura was looking at me with her eyes narrowed, as if she had read my inner evil heart.

Then she smiled and picked up a spoon.

“I’ll enjoy it!”

“I’ll eat well, mister!”

“I’ll eat well too. I said it clearly earlier? Cooking can be used as an article.”

“Yes. You can use as much as you like.”

That’s how lunch started.

And after a while.

Shallow moans began to flow across the table.

“Hmm… Uhm… How the hell do you get this taste?”

* * *

“Sold at auction?”

Skipping lunch, news was delivered to the people waiting in front of Jeon Tae-min’s stall.

“Only five of them?”

“Effect! The buff effect is important!”

The special dish will be sold to the person who offers the highest price through an auction.

And the number of sales is only five.

Complaints could have erupted, but people’s reactions were unexpectedly quiet.

The reason is that the buff specifications of the sold dishes have been revealed.

The name of the dish at the auction is Carlisle Wild Boar Bulgogi Rice Bowl!

Unlike the pan tacos in the morning, it was a rare dish with the name written in blue.

Of course, for the players who had eaten the Legendary Cash dish, the mere rare dish was not even the slightest inspiration.

However, the revealed buff numbers were enough to shock everyone.

Although the maximum HP increase was the same as that of Taco at 17%, it increases Strength, Intelligence, and Stamina by a whopping 150 each.

In addition, the buff duration was twice as long compared to taco.

“To have that much buff in one dish… Isn’t that a scam?”

“That’s why it’s expensive. But, like tacos, it’s a little strange that the value is higher than cash dishes.”

“It doesn’t matter. Whether it’s a bug or a shortcut, I won’t have a wish if I come out with better dishes and clear the dungeon a little easier. How long will I have to live here?”

Amidst the chatter of the players, people who heard rumors later and even people who came to watch the auction appeared and the surroundings started to become crowded.

Even the guards of the temple and the knights dispatched from the lord’s castle were showing up to prevent accidents.

“Let’s start the first dish auction. The starting price is 2,000 gold. The unit is 100 gold each. Actually, please raise your hand.”

It was an auction that started in the midst of that, but the ending was surprisingly bland.

Because someone screamed loudly from the beginning.

“Hour… Hundred thousand gold… If you don’t have any more, I’ll close the auction!”

Nobody raised a hand.

No matter how effective it is, no one would spend 100,000 gold on a buff dish that lasted for at most ten hours.

He even won the bid for all five dishes.

For a while, everyone’s eyes stayed on him.

“What is it? You’re still young, aren’t you?”

“I-I can’t believe that person…”

“I know. I’ve seen them in Fallon. They have the exact same face!”

“I also ran into a few times at the adventurer’s guild, and he’s right. He’s also number one in the tamer ranking, right?”

The person who won the dish was a celebrity in his own right among the players.

He couldn’t count the words that modified him on his fingers.

Starting with the 1st place in the tamer rankings, the 1st place in the player who wants to be a little brother, the angelic smile, the strongest boy, the slime master, and so on.

Among them, the most famous modifier was this.

World class nuclear biller.

Recently, however, it has been called more simply like this.

Master.

“Because it’s Salem, I bought it at a cheaper price than I thought. It would have been two to three times more expensive if it was a Fallon.”

Founder and guild master of the guild ‘Angelic Slime’, Everett Lowell.

“Hello, my name is Everett Lowell. If you have more dishes to sell, let me know. I’ll buy them all.”
