Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking - Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking chapter 63

Episode 63. Stage 2 Beast Buff

[The level of the Beast Chef has increased.]

“Phew… It’s finally up.”

No matter what, doing the same thing over and over is always boring.

However, the reason you can endure all that boredom is because sweet rewards follow if you do not give up and do it to the end.

[Monster Chef Level 2]

– You’re pretty used to cooking gruel now. We recommend making new dishes with more diverse monsters as ingredients.

– The person who absorbs the monster you created will receive the 1st and 2nd stage buff. (Effects of previously prepared dishes are also reflected immediately.)

– Stage 1 Beast Food Buff: If you hunt monsters that are used as the main ingredient for the food, you can obtain the food ingredients with a certain probability even if you do not have the Chef’s ingredient search skill.

– Stage 2 Beast Buff (1): When you consume the Bread you crafted, resistance to attribute properties increases. (Effects vary depending on the ingredients used as the main ingredient.)

– Stage 2 Beast Buff (2): If you are attacked while consuming the Beast Food you have made, you will transform into a monster that dropped the ingredients of the Beast Food. (See details)

Big… As expected, it doesn’t disappoint.

“Step 2 Necrotic Buff!”

Increased attribute resistance.

There are also very tempting words written on it.

Attribute resistance potions are never cheap.

Of course, there are differences depending on the level.

Low-level potions are cheap, and mid-level potions are reasonably priced.

However, high-end resistance potions required in dungeons with difficulty higher than Nightmare are sold at very high prices.

‘Still, it’s not as expensive as my cooking.’

I immediately took out the high oak sirloin bulgogi rice bowl that I had prepared in advance.

It is said that the 2nd stage buff is immediately reflected in the previously prepared dishes.

This dish was appraised by Lemon, so I immediately checked how the description had changed.

‘Hmm… Everything else is the same…’

I only checked the changed parts.

– Fire resistance +35

“Ah…”

It was a bit disappointing.

Of course, with the addition of a new buff, the value of cooking has gone up a notch.

However, the buff effect amplification attribute was not applied to the fire resistance value.

‘Well, if it was applied, it would add over 500 fire resistance, but that’s because it really destroys the balance.’

But 35 is on the decent side.

Because the value increases by 30 when you drink an Intermediate Fire Resistance Potion.

Although it is a little short of the 60 that advanced potions raise.

‘Where is this?’

If you eat only High Orc meat, it will be much easier to deal with monsters that attack with fire.

Besides, this is cooking.

What if I take an additional fire resistance potion?

‘Fire property mobs are game over.’

Of course, the effects of cooking and potions will overlap.

That way, the cook and the alchemist will also live.

‘By the way, what the hell are you talking about?’

– If you consume this dish, you will be transformed into a High Orc with a chance due to the 2nd stage monster eating buff.

I chose the question mark floating above the word transformation.

[Dreaming Stage 2 Buff: Monster Transformation]

– It activates probabilistically when you are attacked by an enemy, and it activates with a higher probability when you feel a serious threat to your life. (Limited activation once per meal)

– The chance of transforming outside of a dungeon is greatly reduced.

– Transformation lasts for about 5 minutes, and returns to normal after the time has elapsed.

– This effect cannot be canceled on its own, so if you do not want to transform, you need to be careful about eating monsters.

(+Transformation effect)

– HP, SP, Strength, Stamina, Intelligence, Spirit, Dexterity, Spirit, and Luck between the transforming party and the transforming monster are compared, and each higher value is applied.

– When transforming, the use of some skills may be restricted.

– With the level 2 buff, you cannot use the skills possessed by the transformed monster.

“Crazy…”

I was at a loss for words for a while.

“Cooking was like that, but isn’t this a real scam?”

Compared to monsters, it is said that better values are applied, so if you transform into an Abyss Dragon, your health will increase by nearly 10 million, right?

No matter how limited the use of skills is, once your stamina reaches 10,000, you can chew and eat not only the Abyss but also the Inferno Dungeon.

Although it is only limited to 5 minutes.

‘Hmm…’

Of course, there are formidable hurdles that say you have to hunt dragons in advance, get meat, and succeed in cooking with it.

‘Besides, it’s a probability activation… I might get hit and run away trying to activate it…’

When I think about it like this, it seems to be bad again.

Isn’t it?

Isn’t it just a matter of defeating a low level boss?

Even if the level is low, a boss is a boss.

I don’t know the stats, but Pitong starts at least in the hundreds of thousands.

I squinted my eyes and was thinking about how to use the 2nd level of the monster buff.

* * *

I was thinking about it for a while, and lunch time came in an instant.

‘Damn it…’

Led by Lin, Mumu and Melissa.

In addition, even lemon whines for food.

Well, you can look cute up to this point.

First of all, they are important party members.

However, crowds were gathering from across the horizon from the north, south, east and west.

‘There are more than breakfast!’

It hasn’t even been a day yet.

Going to the adventurer’s guild and canceling the promotion and saying that we will put restrictions on sales is something that can only be done later in the evening.

‘It’s ruined…’

I never dreamed that a situation like this would happen in half a day.

‘I even advertised that I would give it away for free, but I can’t suddenly ask them to give me 10,000 gold…’

Of course, oak meat and chili are welcome.

If you take this opportunity to cook a lot of dishes that increase fire resistance, you will be able to use them in the next dungeon.

‘You can go to Firebird’s Nest or Volcanic Valley. What does a fire bird’s egg taste like…’

While I was thinking about something else for a while, a party of adventurers came running towards the stall.

They were guys whose faces were familiar after seeing them a few times.

“Ugh… Ugh… Mister Chef!”

“Why are you running so fast? Who is chasing after you?”

I have already spoken with these guys since morning.

I finished the voiceover, but… Oh, I can’t remember the name.

‘I only remember Sophia…’

But she only remembers the girl’s name, so I pretended not to know because Lemon was going to open his axe eyes and stare at me.

‘Huh? But who really came after me?’

Behind them, an Asian man with a shaggy beard was approaching.

I narrowed my brows and looked at the man.

“Are you the cook?”

“I see…?”

First impressions are important, but men don’t have a good impression.

“You fed these kids a suspicious dish, right?”

“Su, a suspicious dish?”

Well, since he’s a freak, there’s nothing he can do about it if he says it’s suspicious.

“Do you know what almost happened to the children because of you?”

What is this again?

I looked at the boy gasping for exhaustion.

Please interpret what that man said.

But the boy caught his breath and was talking to the man, not me.

“What are you doing, mister? Thanks to this mister, how strong we have become.”

“That’s right. And if it wasn’t for this uncle’s cooking earlier, Rudy would have died.”

What? Die?

I kept listening to the story in silence.

“But if you hadn’t eaten that dish, I wouldn’t have even attempted such a reckless thing.”

“That’s my mistake, mister. Being too conceited… Mr. Cook did nothing wrong.”

“Right!”

Suddenly, the boys blocked my way and spread their arms.

The man with the long beard glared at me with a puzzled face.

‘What is it?’

“Then let that be so. But you!”

“Yes?”

“At least, if you’re going to sell strange things to kids, you should’ve given them enough warning beforehand! Because of you, at least Rudy…”

I slowly listened to the story.

Because I thought I would be able to refute or apologize if I knew what had happened.

“That’s why I asked to show you how to catch a name, so I overreactedly attacked the name.”

“But why was there a raid boss next to him?”

“Yes…”

“Hmm…”

In other words, after eating my food, the children did more than usual.

That’s why it was said that it became dangerous.

If you think Mumu and Melissa suddenly rush to catch the boss…

‘It’s scary.’

When Rin started to run amok, I felt the same way.

Because of that, I was able to fully understand the aggressive attitude of the man from the beginning.

“I admit my fault. I never thought that would happen… I will be careful in the future.”

It could have been attacked aggressively.

But I chose to apologize politely.

Probably, I wouldn’t have done this if it weren’t for Rin and the children.

But I have changed.

From noble mtl dot com

Thinking that man was something of a protector for them, he didn’t feel like arguing about every little thing.

“No. We were wrong. Sorry.”

“You really didn’t do anything wrong. He just served you delicious food…”

“I’ll be careful. I won’t do anything dangerous like that again.”

The man smiles.

It was hard to see because it was hidden by his black beard, but it certainly was.

It wasn’t like laughing at me.

Looking at the children, he looked proud.

‘Am I like that when I look at Rin and the boys?’

He was a man with a strange sense of identity.

“But Mr. Chef!”

“Huh?”

“Well, why did I transform? Thanks to that, I didn’t die and lived…”

“Oh that…”

I gave a brief explanation of the dishes I made and the monster food buff.

Rumbling-

Meanwhile, I heard thunder from somewhere.

No, this wasn’t thunder, it was the sound of a beggar crying in the man’s stomach.

“Are you hungry?”

“hehehe…”

“Mister! This man’s cooking is so delicious!”

“Mr. Cook! Can you feed my hairy man? He must be very hungry after eating only dry food all day.”

The man avoids my gaze.

But I don’t refuse.

From what the children say, it seems that they have been praising my cooking all the time I have been here.

“Meat and Chili?”

“Hee hee… You’ll be surprised to see the sheep we brought?”

It wasn’t a bluff.

A really huge amount of high oak meat was being put on the table one after another.

“It’s quite a bit? A promise is a promise. What would you like to eat? Tacos or rice bowls?”

I started preparing the meal right away.

Not only the guys, but a huge crowd were approaching the stalls, so we had to hurry.

Among the people approaching were several faces I knew.

In particular, Laura Douglas, whom I met a few days ago.

And the other person… Was Park Myung-sik, the archer of the previous party.
