Main Character Hides His Strength

“Well…”

I was motivated just when I was tidying the countertops.

However, after finishing cleaning up, Kim Sung-cheol found himself unable to do anything.

What kind of cooking will you make?

The most primitive and crucial problem was stopping him.

‘There is a deliberate dish. But they are not easy to get materials from and take a long time. ’

One of the ingredients Kim Sung-cheol thought of was the cub of a winter sleeping rat. It is the preparation process to lock up things that have not yet opened their eyes in the dark and only feed the fragrant seeds and then dip them in sweet liquor. It only takes a week to boil the flesh.

Even if it is not a winter mouse, there is no food that can be classified as superior in Kim Sung-cheol's water right now.

Fresh vegetables as well as first-class meat.

You can hunt animals with hooves in the snow-covered mountains, but it's hard to get more than that.

As a cook, Kim Sung-cheol understands the importance of ingredients.

There are also enough dishes that exceed the importance of ingredients depending on the cooking.

“Mmmm…"

There was a deep wrinkle in Kim Sung-cheol's forehead.

He understands the difficulties when reality cannot keep up with his desires.

“What are you thinking about? Catch his favorite minnow, take some weird dirt and boil it. ”

Bertelgia opened her mouth, watching Kim Sung-cheol's worries right next to her.

“It's called miso. And he doesn't like spicy fish. ”

“Hmm. So you're thinking about it because you don't have the ingredients? ”

Kim Sung-cheol nodded at Bertelkia's question.

“I wish there were fresh meat, crops. This doesn't look like much of a way to get out of here. ”

Then Bertelkiah shakes his body lightly and suddenly says,

“Why don't you open your hands? ”

“Open your hands? ”

Kim Sung-cheol was slightly surprised and asked.

“You can borrow some money. You're an enemy of the world or something, but at least there's a few people you saved here. What's wrong with borrowing some timber? ”

It seems likely from what Bertelkia has said.

Kim Sung-cheol is qualified to borrow enough food.

‘I don't want to, but I can't help it. ’

Even if you go elsewhere, things will be similar.

Instead, the Silver Tower, where you can relax and devote yourself to cooking, will be the best challenge for your Great Work of Cooking.

That's why Kim Sung-cheol went to Eun's Tower and obtained cooking ingredients.

Kim Sung-cheol gained some potatoes and radishes because the Silver Tower was poor. I also recommended fish that was dried by the wind, but I didn't accept Kim Sung-cheol. It was because he knew that the class leader with a taste for chodding was a frightening object.

Next, Kim Sung-cheol went to a pier where there was a shipbuilding for the Human Empire.

However, officials of the Human Empire are all afraid of Kim Sung-cheol.

When he showed up, the factions in the Human Empire were frozen solid.

Luckily, I noticed a familiar face in Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

“Hey, you. ”

Stu.

“W-who are you? ”

Stu desperately tried to hide from Sung-cheol Kim, but her ability made it impossible to escape Sung-cheol Kim.

Kim Sung-cheol, who captured Stu, had the opportunity to meet her boss, Captain Breve, and was able to obtain additional crops.

Unlike Stu, Captain Breve, who knows the grace of Kim Sung-cheol, used his connections to get the vegetables he wanted.

Salted pork and living chickens, eggs, carrots and bread came into the water.

It was a good harvest.

“Thank you.”

Kim Sung-cheol thanked Colonel Breve.

“It's a small price to pay for your life. ”

Colonel Breve shrugs, smiling furiously.

A person who knows a lot of embarrassment.

Kim Sung-cheol thought so and returned to Tangrit's mansion.

But when I stood on the counter again, I felt something was missing.

I can make a decent dish with the ingredients I gathered, but I don't think he has enough to make more than 90 of the ultimate dishes he wants.

‘Is it spices? ’

Luckily, there is a box full of precious spices in Kim Sung-cheol's Soul Warehouse.

Spices are a culinary magic that transforms even ordinary ingredients into the finest dishes.

Kim Sung-cheol decided to challenge me with just what he had and started cooking.

The first challenge was a chicken dish.

The director of the cooking class generally liked to bake and fry.

Kim Sung-cheol was going to try cooking using a fireplace that would best enhance the flavor of ingredients among the baked dishes.

The cooking method is simple but what is important is the blend of spices.

Kim Sung-cheol placed the spices stolen from the Emperor's Botanical Garden on the white tablecloth and prepared the best sauce he could make through careful measurements and combinations.

Three sauces are ready.

The three types of sauce were actually made to find out the taste of the director of the cooking class.

"Know the intentions of your students..." they said. ’

Kim Sung-cheol relished the taste of each sauce as a child.

One is spicy and sweet, the other is sweet and sweet, and the other is light and subtle.

“Good.”

Kim Sung-cheol put the chicken with each sauce in the oven and started baking.

“Beep...? ”

Marrakia, trimming her beak next to the campfire, roams around to see if she's hungry.

Soon, the eyes of Marrakia caught the chicken's intestines.

“Well, aren't you going to eat this? ”

Kim Sung-cheol took out the roots of the chicken inside the jar next to the cutting board and gave the rest to Marakia.

“Eat.”

“Wait. What's that? ”

Marakia glanced at the proximity in Kim Sung-cheol's hand.

“This is called a chicken coop. It's kind of a sandbag. Does it depend on your body? ”

“There can't be such a thing in noble Nahaq. ”

Marrakia is furious, but she rarely takes her eyes off the rooster.

“That looks delicious. ”

“This won't do. ”

Kim Sung-cheol just cut it off and said.

“Why? Humans don't eat intestines, do they? ”

“This is my idea of a drink later. ”

“If you're sober, you're roasting over there. ”

Marrakia points out that the oven where the chicken is ripening is unfair.

“Hmmm...”

From what I hear, yes.

Because those chicken dishes are destined to enter Kim Sung-cheol's ship when they don't score more than 90 points.

“It's old.”

Kim Sung-cheol tossed the rooster to Marakia, saying that he uses a toebox.

Marrakia is overjoyed and starts chewing dirt while grabbing the rooster with her beak in the air.

But how many times have I chewed it?

Marrakia's expression began to change strangely.

“Tsk!”

Marrakia spits out the rooster.

“What? This is terrible! What are you so tough about? ”

Kim Sung-cheol's face saw it was stiff.

"Look at this guy...? ’

Marrakia, who didn't know it, embraced the barrel of her intestines with her bare face and began eating beaks with both hands.

Kim Sung-cheol's eyes reminded me of a horrible life.

“Hold on!”

Perhaps if Bertelkia had not withheld, Marrakia would have gone into the furnace with the sauced chicken.

While the chicken was ripening, Kim Sung-cheol took out the spleen from the transcendent world.

Essence of Fire Spirit.

‘More power is meaningless. Even if the power rises, there is no way to see it with the current state window. ’

The upper limit for stats displayed in the status window is 999.

There is still no way to see beyond that number.

The reason is simple.

because no one has passed 999.

In the past, there may have been, but Kim Sung-cheol is the only one with that kind of accomplishment in the world now.

Nevertheless, we need to test whether we can or can't push anymore.

Kim Sung-cheol put the essence of the Fire Spirit in the palm of his hand and gazed at it quietly.

However, Marakir, who was eating his intestines, noticed something like a ghost and turned his head to Kim Sung-cheol.

“Beep...? ”

The beak of Marrakia unfolds slightly.

At the same time, Maraki rushed to Kim Sung-cheol, flapping his wings.

“Th-that's it! Essence of Fire Spirit?! ”

Marrakia pops her head.

Kim Sung-cheol turned to his side and drove Marakir away, but Marakir persistently followed and showed obsession with the essence of the Fire Spirit.

“I... saw it in a book. Legendary Flame Spirit Essence for Magic Boost...! I heard no one has seen the essence of the Fire Spirit since the death of the Last Spirit King... I didn't expect it to show up here now! I knew I should have followed you! Breaker!”

Marrakia tells the same unspoken story as before.

Of course, Kim Sung-cheol completely ignored Marrakia again.

“If I could do a little more magic... Apocalypse? I could have been more impressive when I fought them...”

Marrakia continues to murmur beside her.

“It is not magic that makes you the essence of the Fire Spirit, but power. ”

Kim Sung-cheol said bluntly.

Marrakia's small body hardens, but he doesn't give up.

“Power! Power. Magic is good, but lately I've been able to feel a lack of strength. Strength. If I had the strength, I could do something more helpful. ”

Kim Sung-cheol looked at Marrakia like that and tightly grasped the essence of the Fire Spirit.

“Oh, no! ”

Marakia reaches out with her eyes wide, but the sparkling water has already been crushed by Kim Sung-cheol and lost its circle.

The essence of the Fire Spirit collapsed and the particles that made it began to rotate around Kim Sung-cheol.

That's as far as absorbing the Wind Spirit's essence.

But at the next moment, a completely different result appeared.

The essence of the flame spirit collapsed and began to form a circle on the palm of Kim Sung-cheol's hand.

Soon, a glowing letter appeared in front of Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

[You have more power than the limit.]

[You cannot absorb any more Fire Spirit essences.]

Kim Sung-cheol glanced slightly at the letter that appeared in front of his eyes.

‘That's right. There must have been a limit to even being able to raise it to the Spirit Essence. ’

Meanwhile, Marrakia was excited.

“Yes. Eating too much will make you feel better! Whatever's right is right! ”

Marrakia's eyes were shining with the light of greed.

Bertelkia, who was watching beside him, was frightened.

“Ugh... I feel so bad. ”

Kim Sung-cheol also felt bad about one thing.

Most of all, he took what Kim Sung-cheol didn't like and spit it out.

“I live in the essence of an unused Fire Spirit! ”

Marrakia continues to shred unnoticed.

Kim Sung-cheol's eyes dared me to live again.

But this time, the smell of burning from the furnace saved his life.

‘Looks pretty ripe. ’

Kim Sung-cheol put the essence of the Fire Spirit into the Soul Warehouse and got up and headed for the furnace.

Marrakia followed behind Kim Sung-cheol.

“Don't you have any pride in being king? I don't want to give it to you! ”

Vertelgia gives you a pint, but you can't hear it in Marrakia's ears.

Given the hot stare of Marakia, Kim Sung-cheol tasted the chicken in the hearth.

[This dish scores... 71]

[This dish scores... 68 points]

[This dish scores... 75 points]

Different scores appeared depending on the sauce applied to the chicken.

The lowest score was the spicy sauce, whereas the highest score was the sweet one.

‘You like sweet things. ’

Obviously sugar is the basis for all seasoning.

‘I have to dip sugar in the next dish. ’

The moment I turned back and organized my thoughts like that, something caught my feet.

“Peek-a-boo!”

Marrakia.

I guess he just kept hanging around back and kicking.

It may not seem like much, but it's actually very dangerous.

Even if a person with a divine power like Sung-cheol Kim carelessly empowered himself, Marrakia might enter the furnace.

“… old. ”

Kim Sung-cheol took the essence of the Fire Spirit from the Soul Warehouse and tossed it to Marakir.

“Beep...? ”

Marrakia, who rolls the ground like she's going to die, stops and looks straight at the flame spirit rolling in front of her.

“Oh… oh…!! This... is the legendary... spirit essence that no longer exists?! ”

While Marrakia was excited and chatting, Kim Sung-cheol walked into the white forest and began to conceive about the next dish.

Suddenly, the sky became dark.

To be precise, it must be said that something great appeared in heaven and covered the sun.

Boom.

A huge dragon landed in front of Tang Grit's mansion across Kim Sung-cheol's head.

It's Carnes, after all.

Upon landing, she transformed into a human being. She was looking like a typical patient with bandages, but her appetite was not as big as usual.

“Knng, knng. Smells so good! ”

You nod, smiling bitterly, looking at Carnes tapping her belly.

All the dishes you prepared to make the ultimate dish went into Carnes' belly.

Kim Sung-cheol was preparing the next dish while Carnes was eating crazily.

Kanes, who had eaten the food in a hurry, glanced at Sung-cheol Kim with curious eyes.

“What are you cooking so hard for? Are you preparing for a hard day? ”

Kim Sung-cheol then shook his head and pointed to a golden brooch in the shape of a sparkling, loving dragon in his coat.

“No, I'm making a dish that will satisfy the guy who made it. ”

“Ahh. A meal to satisfy him? ”

Kaneth's eyes remind me of this.

I know something.

Kim Sung-cheol felt that way and asked Kanes.

“Do you have any ideas? ”

“Of course I do. ”

Kanes said.

“He's one of us. ”

“What...? ”

“The father of all dragons, the first dragon. He's the director of the cooking class. ”
