Episode 101. What’s the purpose?

Twenty days until the invasion of the demon army announced by Kang Dae-san.

Three days before that, it was decided to deliver the dishes to the lords of the territories below level 60.

It is no longer necessary to go to different places to deliver this decision.

Because I decided to get Laura-san’s help.

“Then please take good care of me.”

“You owe me this? From the introduction of your colleague to this day. You know this is separate from the contract we made, right?”

“Yes. I’ll do that.”

It felt like I was constantly in debt, but work has priorities.

Now is not the time to procrastinate.

‘Anyway, if it’s Laura-san, letting her eat the new menu will be enough.’

Anyway, with this over, we got out of her mansion.

Take the two newcomers.

“Me, Taemin, why do you go that far?”

Michael Edison.

On the way out of the city and heading for today’s destination, he suddenly asked me a question.

“Yes? What is it?”

“Why do you want to serve that precious dish to lords who only care about themselves?”

Do you have any complaints about the lords?

“I’m not giving it to you to eat the lord. I’m not giving it to you for free.”

“But isn’t it a very rare and expensive dish? I heard that it is very cheap.”

“I… I heard from Mr. Laura that Mr. Michael also provides a large amount of potions to be used to defend the territory? Am I misunderstanding?”

“Oh, no. I decided to do that too.”

“Then aren’t you the same as me? Or did you take this opportunity to trade potions against Yeongji?”

“Oh, no. Me too…”

If you think you will too, why ask?

When I put on a puzzled face, he continued talking in bewilderment.

“Well, I was impressed after hearing your story and followed you. I was just… Curious about Taemin’s true intentions…”

What else did you say you were impressed with?

I replied with a smirk.

“We have to do something. After all, we live here too. We can’t just watch.”

As long as we can’t go back to Earth right now, this is our home.

We can’t just leave the guys who are trying to trample on that place.

I want to wipe it all out, but it’s an impossible situation with my own strength.

So, I just took the strand to increase everyone’s power.

Use my cooking.

“Is that so. I wondered if there was another reason. I heard that there is a special quest… Or that you found the first demonic order…”

How else did you know that?

Did you hear from Laura?

“Oh, that’s it? It was a coincidence. A coincidence. I heard that it was found in other places besides me?”

“Coincidence… So, are you really, really thinking of providing food simply to protect the people here? Giving up huge profits?”

Huh?

Why does the story go that way?

If I can protect it, I want to protect it, but I answered urgently because I seemed to be looking at it like a person with a sense of mission.

“You don’t have a choice in the first place? If the territory is ruined, it will be difficult for us there too. Isn’t it? .”

“Is that so…”

‘What is it? Why are you disappointed?’

I have no intention of becoming a hero.

I have no intention of becoming famous.

Because I’ve felt that there’s nothing good about that, when I was raising a Bonka Monk in the past.

‘At that time, I had to do an interview or something…’

How bad were you when you did an interview with Laura for no reason?

That, too, was widely criticized.

There was even an outrageous saying that the Counter Monk nerf patch was because of me, maybe?

‘If I had to say that it was downgraded, it became harder to tank, but it was easier to deal…’

At that time, I also learned that once public opinion is in a bad mood, no matter what a person branded as a witch says, it is to be taken aback.

At the time, I was the only Counter Monk Tank who became a honey sucker in Abyss and Inferno, and the other monks made a fuss about patching it before they even sucked honey.

‘I know that anyone can play Counter Monk Tang… How bloody and difficult that contest is.’

I didn’t even write a bug, but there were many sayings to the administrators to permanently suspend my account.

If I had known it was going to be like that, it would have been much more comfortable to live quietly like a hermit master.

Anyway, even now, the chef class seems to be producing a situation similar to that of the time, so the burden is growing.

Certainly, someone somewhere is envying and jealous of me.

The reason why I waited for another cook to appear quickly even though I was sucking honey, this part may have worked unconsciously.

“Are you disappointed?”

“Oh, no.”

“Or it’s fortunate. I’m not such a good person, so don’t misunderstand.”

“I will.”

After answering the odd question, it was my turn this time.

“Can I ask Michael a question this time?”

“Ah, of course.”

“I heard that you were so busy with alchemy that you couldn’t find a fixed party. Why are you so busy with alchemy? You didn’t mean to make a simple recovery potion…”

Like his relationship with Laura, if he was an alchemist who was good enough to secure the elixir recipe, he would have received many scouting offers here and there.

Just like me now.

A person like that travels alone?

It’s a party, but without a guild?

It makes no sense.

‘If you’re busy, shouldn’t you find a guild? The guild will take care of the materials, right?’

Of course, I couldn’t help but wonder why.

Why do you act alone?

What is the purpose?

‘Even if it’s because of the Elixir, it doesn’t make sense.’

Elixir ingredients are said to drop from raid bosses, even though they are in low-level areas.

How did you hunt it alone and gather the ingredients?

If you don’t want to join a large guild and do potion shuttles, there is also a way to create your own guild.

It shouldn’t be difficult to find guild members.

Since ancient times, those who want to learn from an excellent producer are constantly entangled.

“I’m sorry. I won’t comment.”

“Yes? I’ve answered everything…”

Was it too heavy a question in the first meeting?

I had time to reflect on whether my question was too direct.

‘I don’t think so…’

There seemed to be no difference between the question he asked me and the question I asked.

I didn’t ask for detailed answers.

However, I was rejected too coolly.

‘Are you saying that you think I’m going to ask you for something like an elixir recipe?’

Contrary to his foolish appearance, he was a person with a sharp side.

Well, he might be smart enough and meticulous enough to get his hands on a special recipe like an elixir.

“Would you like to ask another question? If so, I will answer it.”

Fortunately, it wasn’t a complete break in conversation.

He seemed to be looking at me too.

‘Well, unless he lied, it’s because I’m in the position of A.’

Then you can slowly turn around and ask questions.

“Then, shall we hear the reason now?”

“Why?”

“I heard you need a dish that increases your luck?”

“Oh, that’s…”

“If you know why, how much, and for how long you need a lucky dish, why don’t I make a dish that suits you? Also, how much luck is needed to increase the luck level with the buff.”

I moved away from the crowd of women who were talking about Rin’s cuteness and spoke softly so that only Michael could hear.

“If you want, I’ll guarantee you a secret. I’m a heavy-mouthed person.”

.

If you can hear why you need a good luck dish, it will be like hearing the answer to my first question after all.

‘I don’t know anything else, but I need to check that out.’

Do you have a real elixir recipe?

Is this the person who said he signed a contract with the hairy hyung?

And most of all, what level of efficacy is the finished elixir?

* * *

Elixirs appearing in fantasy worlds are usually known as panacea.

‘Still, resuscitation is impossible.’

Of course, it would be impossible to bring the dead back to life when the Resurrection doesn’t work.

However, as it is known as the best essence of alchemy in this game, there must be something special about it.

I wondered if eating it would make even my hairy younger brother feel better.

If it’s a great item, I also wanted to secure it in advance when I could afford it.

I hope that doesn’t happen, but we have a contingency plan for our party.

“We’ve arrived. Mr. Heehee! Come quickly!”

But before we could hear the answer, we arrived in front of the dungeon, our destination for the day.

First, another Melissa waved her hand at us in front of the entrance.

“Uh, I’ll tell you after I’ve finished clearing the dungeon. It’s a story I really want to keep a secret…”

‘Definitely?’

“If you don’t want others to hear you, you can keep your distance for a while… You can just tell them to wait.”

“Oh, no. Later… I’ll tell you after I get out of the dungeon. I wonder if you’ll make it right now anyway.”

That’s right.

Egg dishes are the only lucky dishes that can be made right away.

‘Ah, I can’t stand being curious…’

“Oh, and…You can subtract me from the loot distribution you mentioned earlier.”

The story ended with the decision to divide all the loot secured in this dungeon raid exactly into 6 equal parts.

Michael is saying that he will get out of there.

From my point of view as a debtor, thank you.

Why?

There is no favor without reason.

I’m Michael Edison, he’s starting to get suspicious.

“And fortunately, this is a dungeon where I perfectly mastered the strategy. Can I lead it?”

“It’s clear that I’m doing the reading…”

“Oh, I’ll keep quiet if you don’t want to. I really mean it.”

I stared at him.

He looks very flustered in my direct gaze, but…

‘But that bastard… Why do you think he’s acting?’

I’m going to have to find out what kind of scheme it is from now on.

‘I’ve never met anyone here who knows how to get to a secret room, so let’s try it.’

[All party members have entered the catacombs.]
