Leveling Up, By Only Eating!

"Those bastards!!"

Everyone heard Konir's story of being immortalized, and Min-hyuk was furious.

Jinna or Khan, Locke or the Black Flame Dragon understood that he was angry.

It was Min-hyuk who knew hunger better than anyone else here.

In a way, Athens was just a game. NPCs were one virtual being made.

But Min-hyuk thought differently. This world called Athens was his "second life."

I met a lot of people in here.

Instructor Valen, or Roy or Instructor, or Elle who cares about herself like a sister.

There were countless people, and Min-hyuk treated them not as' NPC ', but as a person.

They also have thoughts and feelings.

In the game, he thought it was a reality for them.

"I starve my children and let the dragons devour them, producing chimeras..."

The genie chews on the words. The production process of the chimera was terrifying.

Min-hyuk also checked the 'Essence of Taste' as a reward while taking a breath.

[Essence of Taste. With just one drop, the steak rises and the hunger intensifies, so you can add one drop to your food to make it extremely tasty. In addition, if you drink all of them, you can grow beyond your limits. For example, general article classes will be temporarily reinforced into more powerful article classes.]

And the taste essence in the reward was amazing. This means that you have been informed of a job grade increase.

Of course, the more interesting part of Min-hyuk was that 'every drop in any food will make it tastier.'

It seems to be the power of essence accumulated by hunger.

But there were many problems.

As Konir has told you, we must go to the Colodis Empire.

The Colodis Empire was at war with the Ipilips, though it was at a time of truce.

Also, Peru, which produces chimeras, was the Earl there.

It is very difficult to kill an Earl in an empire that is much larger and more powerful than the current empire of the Valkyrie.

And I heard from Conir that he has an enormous army of money made in Chimera.

That was the problem. It is very difficult to solve things quietly in that way. I thought about where to go first.

It was then.

[Missing Van: My Aad…… No, my lord, how are you?]

[Min Hyuk: Of course. Senior.]

We got a call from the van that went missing. The widows and lords were able to exchange stories without being in front of them like this.

I have found a way to enrich the finances of the Bahamas, and an invitation has come from the Emperor Asphon of the Colodis Empire today.]

"……?"

Min-hyuk kept tilting his head and listening to the invitation.

[Escaped Van: He wants to see you and Lord Koru, the Lord of Bajala Territory.]

Min-hyuk: Why?]

[Van Gone: I'm not telling you the right story, but I don't think I'm trying to hurt you, so there's no profit in it.]

Min Hyuk shrugged his head.

There will be no reason to harm the people of the Colodis Empire. They will also know that the Gentiles are immortal beings who are resurrected after their deaths.

But why?

But I wondered if I should accompany Koru.

And the van that went away said,

My personal guess, but I think we need the greatness of Tal Mor.]

"Tal Mor?"

Min-hyuk picked up the bell from the van.

'Ugh... I was scared...'

Koru's anecdote of creating a new church to follow him. Perhaps the Asphon wants Talmor's power as much as the rest of the Mormon do.

If it weren't for that matter, nothing would have come to mind. But it became clear how to get there.

Didn't the Emperor himself invite you?

Now entering the Colodis empire is no longer an issue.

That's when you start to hear another notification.

[Following the retreat of the Magic army, the door to the Elven Forest was opened.]

[Mission in Elvenheim A region ends.]

[Present your contribution ranking.]

[Top 1 Legendary Guild & Black Dragon and Children & Black Wizard Gun Contributions 7, 314, 180]

[2nd Place Iris Guild & Ares Guild Gun Contribution Points 4, 154, 197]

[3rd place ARTHEON Guild Gun Contribution Points 2, 671, 311]

[4th place…… omitted.]

Alliance guilds, including the legendary guild members who have ranked [1], gain 20% experience buff for 1 month.]

[Receive a random Gordon's Treasure Chest (A to SS).]

The guild members were surprised by the ringing notification.

The reason was simple. The total contribution was higher than they thought.

In addition, when you receive alliance members, the contribution of alliance members is reduced by 30% on their own.

This was a way to prevent indiscreet alliances.

Nevertheless, it was too high. Individual contributions also started to appear.

[Top 1 Min-hyuk. Personal gun contributions 3, 413, 613.]

[Second place, Ali. Personal gun contributions 1, 231, 713.]

[3rd place Black Flame Dragon. Personal gun contributions 604, 139.]

[4th place…… omitted]

"……!"

Everyone in place was appalled. It was not only that he was frightened.

This gun contribution score was also opened on the official Athens website.

And the commentators quickly opened their mouths.

[Psycho, Mad...... I've done more than just a big, messy guild on my own.]

[What is it? Was it not reflected in the gun contribution during the absence of Min-hyuk users in Elvenheim?]

[I think so. However, it seems that he was making a contribution with a quest related to the Magic Legion. And when I came to Elvenheim, it seemed to be starting to apply.]

[Ugh, I can't believe I'm seeing this again. That's a huge score. That's exactly what you say when you say you eat it all by yourself.]

Reward notifications were then triggered for individual contributions.

[Gain EXP +5, 000, 000 based on Contribution Level 1.]

[You have leveled up.]

[Effective immediately upon acquiring Gordon's Abyssal Eye.]]

Min-hyuk is now a level 398.

You get close to the 400th level. At the same time, you get a notification that you have the Abyssal Eye, and the Minhyuk Eye turns red and returns to its original state.

[Abyssal Eye. Not applicable to the same users, can have status windows like Simmons or NPCs that are weaker than you, and can only be done once a week.]

'Oh…?'

Useful ability. The reason this Abyssal Eye is useful is that it can unearth people like Hidden NPC.

Of course, Min Hyuk is not happy to take Hidden NPCs as disguises.

More mouths. But being a member of the territory wasn't bad.

And there was one question.

Min-hyuk was not informed that he had received Gordon's treasure chest.

Just then, the General Commander Gordon appeared.

Behind Commander Gordon's back is an endless number of Elves.

The commentators shouted excitedly.

[Gordon, king of the Elves, stands before the user of Min-hyuk with hundreds of Hielves.]

[It's as if the Elven delegation and the Human delegation had met. That's pretty cool.]

At this moment, viewers were breathless and admiring Minhyuk more than ever.

Think about it, there is a king of a tribe standing before him as a thankful face.

Immediately, the High Elves rush forward with a huge treasure chest.

And I reached out to Min-hyuk.

"A gift I can give you. I haven't reclaimed the Elven Forest yet, but I can't deny that your ball is the biggest."

It was at that moment that Min-hyuk was alerted.

[Gordon, king of the Elves, offers 1,000 platinum.]

[Obtain Gordon's (SSS) Treasure Chest.]

Clearly, notifications only resounded to Min-hyuk.

1, 000 platinum. It was an enormous amount worth 5 billion in cash exchanges.

And the commentators predicted,

[The S rank Treasure Chest was red and the SS rank Treasure Chest was blue. That golden color has never been seen before. A colorful treasure chest that no one in the Legend Guild has! Definitely SSS class!]

[Looking forward to it. What's coming out of an SSS-grade treasure chest!!]

Viewers, commentators, and the world watching this broadcast focused on attention.

But then Min-hyuk threw it into his inventory like a rough treasure chest.

[Why, why don't you check!!]

[If you got it, you should check it right away!!! It's disconnected from here, nothing!!!]

[Please check! Please! Please. Min-hyuk user. That commentator Lee Dae-jin pleads earnestly!!!]

[Aaaahhh! I'm not going to finish checking!! I'm so curious!!!]

But the narrators' cries and the audience sitting in front of the TV's, "Hey! 'I don't know if you know the phrase,' Minhyuk smiled brightly and said to Gordon.

"Your Majesty!"

Gordon nods, smiling softly as he calls out.

"Speak."

"I'd be delighted if you could give me something more delicious than this."

"Hahahaha, what?"

Gordon laughs.

Gordon himself handed over the S-SSS-grade ingredients to Min-hyuk.

Gordon and Jeanie move to speak separately.

'I have to eat something delicious at the grocery store, but there's too much snow here.'

I thought it would be better to eat on my way to work for Conor.

Even without Minhyuk, the guild members could continue to use the Royal Shop because Prince Argon is here, and a new quest to enter the Elves' Forest will appear.

Min-hyuk whispered to the genie that he would go to the Colodis Empire.

No one complained that the guild members also had a user who could receive one quest.

In addition, four hyenas, including their fathers, said that their journey to the Elven Forest was delayed by their busy work.

Since he said he couldn't access Athens for a while because of work, Min-hyuk went to Bajala territory to pick up Koru.

* * *

Chubby Chubby

There was the paladin Koru, Min-hyuk, and Kong, Konir the Ghost.

The wagon was headed for the Colodis Empire at a rapid pace.

Kong was sitting on his back, holding the bar with loving hands and eating it with a cool papinococoa flavored pudding, which Min Hyuk bought with trembling hands.

At that time, Min-hyuk finally bought a Bossam set with the contributions he got from the grocery store.

I was going to buy it step by step and eat it one by one.

Together with him, a fantastic Bossam set appeared in front of Minhyuk.

There was a rounded bossam meat and on the right side of it was a sprig of myrrh, spinach, fennel, garlic, shrimp chops and seaweed, Kim Jang Chi, lettuce and leaf to cover the fennel.

On the left, there was tray noodles and green tofu stew.

Occasionally, when I ordered a Bossam set, I couldn't help but look for souvenir soup dumplings, kimchi stew, or soup dumplings like this.

"Wow…"

Min-hyuk rubbed the tray noodles first.

Cool-looking tray noodles are wet, but the red color fills my mouth without me knowing it.

After lighting all the noodles on the tray, place kimchi on top of Bossam meat first.

When I just put one kimchi and Bossam meat in my mouth, the crunchy texture and fluffy meat go together.

Then pick up the bossam meat with chopsticks again and place it on the lettuce.

After placing the bossam meat on the lettuce, dip the garlic into the fence and put a bit of fennel and mudalang on top.

And then he puts it in his mouth and eats it.

I take a spoonful of green bean sprouts soup with a delightful smile for a variety of flavors.

Eating a mouthful, I nodded my head at the awkwardness and coolness.

This time, place the bossam meat on the tray noodles, then lift it together and put it in your mouth.

The spicy tray noodles caught the taste of soup that could be felt somewhat.

And this time he picks up the washed basil leaves without being cooked.

I rip off some basil leaf and try it on the fence.

Isaac

"Is this cabbage for real?"

The more you chew the delicious cabbage, the sweeter it gets. It tasted just like that.

Then he placed the beef jerky on the cabbage and put the garlic and purse in his mouth.

After eating like that, he pours the glass full of ice and sniffs after the cider.

"Khh"

The refreshing taste of my throat makes me feel somewhat refreshed.

And this time, when he was about to put the brisket in his mouth, Konir turned red with a right look on his face.

[Ha, just one bite….]

At that moment.

Kong drops the squeeze bar that was eating with a surprised look on his face to the ground.

And Koru folded his arms and closed his eyes.

He opens his eyes wide and looks at Konir in horror.

Conor doesn't know why he's alone.

He tilts his head.

[Grunts] …?]
