Not a Trainer This Time

He opened his eyes.

Quiet surrounding. The

pendulum of an old-fashioned pendulum clock hanging from the wall swings silently.

Naoki sat up sharply from the bed, his chest rising and falling, gasping violently.

What is this place?

Naoki subconsciously observed the surroundings, and his heart was full of confusion and puzzlement.

It is a small chalet. Inside the house is a

single bed against the wall, opposite the bed is a wood-colored desk with a bulging hiking backpack on it. On

the wall next to it hangs a yellowed calendar that looks some years old, and on the other side of the room sits a wooden cupboard with things resembling coal stoves and kitchen utensils such as soup pots and iron pots.

Looking at this strange scene, Naoki became even more confused.

What's going on?

Shouldn't he be working overtime at the company now? Why is it here?

"Hiss... The head hurts!

Something suddenly came out of his head, and that made Naoki feel like his head was swollen.

A large number of memories flooded in, and after digesting it, Naoki's face suddenly showed an expression of disbelief.

Crossed?

After a brief moment of consternation, Naoki slowly sorted out the current situation.

He did cross over. The

sudden death of fatigue caused by five consecutive days of overtime crossed into this world.

This is a very different world from Earth.

In addition to humans, there is another creature called "Pokémon" living here, whether in the sky, sea, or land, they can be seen in every corner of this world.

"It turned out to be the world of Pokémon!" Naoki was a little surprised.

For Pokémon, he cannot be said to know very well, but whether it is games or anime, he has played and watched.

When I was young, I also longed for the life of this world.

It's notoriously relaxed, and humans can claim their initial Pokémon and travel with them around the world as soon as they are over ten years old.

Since he crossed over, can he also travel as much as he wants like Ash in the anime?

The thought that he could get rid of 996, get rid of the mortgage car loan, and no longer have to be a useless social animal, Naoki's heart moved.

But soon, he calmed down again.

The ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny.

The man he crossed into, also named Naoki, was from the Pathia region, and moved with his parents to live in the Toyowon region when he was a child.

Shortly thereafter, both of his parents died of illness – and they went to the Fengyuan region to recuperate.

After the death of his parents, he sold his real estate and wandered outside for many years as if he had seen through the red dust. Finally, at the age of twenty, he

chose to return to his hometown of the Pathia region, returning to the ranch left by his grandfather, who died early, and ended his life here.

Although this is the world of Pokémon, the original body has not accepted Pokémon because he does not want to be concerned.

With these memories in his mind, Naoki felt a little embarrassed in his heart, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh. "Gooo

2:00AM

At two o'clock in the morning, judging from the current situation, it seems that the original owner has not eaten dinner.

Naoki sighed and said sorry in his heart, then got out of bed, opened the original owner's backpack according to the situation in his memory, found a pack of ramen noodles from it, took a little water from a pot, and put it on the coal stove and burned it.

Waiting for the water to boil, Naoki searched left and right, but found nothing else to eat except for some basic seasonings. Although this is a pasture,

because it has been abandoned for many years, the fields in the pasture have long been occupied by weeds and rubble, and naturally it is impossible to have any vegetables and fruits, let alone eggs.

Memories of the pasture boom still remain in my mind.

At that time, the pastures were lively and prosperous, and a variety of crops grew in the neat fields, and the branches of the fruit trees were hung with heavy fruit.

The Pokémon hut houses a herd of large milk cans imported from the Johto area and pigtailed sheep from the Calar area, and rows of beehives are placed on the grass outside the house.

The three bees will collect nectar from outside, send it to the hive to brew honey, and every few days can receive jars of crystal clear, sweet and mellow, golden and sticky honey.

At this time, the water boiled.

Just as Naoki opened the package of the ramen and was about to put it in the water, an extra piece of information suddenly came to mind.

[Instant ramen: Low quality, no nutritious basic food, but because of the convenience of cooking, it is favored by many field workers and travelers, and the effect is unknown.]

Huh? This is......

Naoki somehow felt that this thing was somewhat familiar.

When the ramen is put into the water, the originally hard noodles quickly soften as the water boils.

Naoki puts the seasoning in it.

For cooking, he cannot be said to be proficient, only a little. Because he lives alone, he prepares

his own three meals a day most of the time, because it saves money, and over time he learns to cook.

Soon, the ramen was cooked.

Without much thought, Naoki put it in a bowl and sat down at his desk ready to fill his stomach with it.

But at this moment, the familiar information reappeared in his mind.

[Clear noodle soup with too much salt (D-): Low-grade dishes, because of the addition of excessive salt, causing it to lose its original buff effect, can only be used for stomachs, eat too much and are easy to get thirsty, like salty Pokémon may like, evaluation: Although it is poor, it is not enough to make Pokémon eat and fall into fainting.

Naoki's brow jumped.

Boy!

He finally remembered where this familiar feeling came from!

Isn't this the in-game cooking introduction interface developed by their game company called "Chef Master"?

It was a garbage game used to cheat Krypton in the name of food.

The game is a development type, and the setting in it is that the player has magical abilities.

The dishes they make give the characters a variety of stats and buffs, as well as other weird magical abilities.

The magnitude and quality of the buff is related to the level of cooking made by the player, and like most junk games, the cooking level is divided from F- to SSS.

The level of cuisine is closely related to the rarity and quality of the ingredients, as well as the player's cooking skills.

D- can only be said to be average, if the taste is worse F-, it will even bring debuffs to the villains in the game, reduce their attributes, and make them die violently when fighting enemies...

"What's the situation?" Naoki was a little stunned, and couldn't help but think of the online novel he had read, "Is this my golden finger?"

Naoki looked at the Pokémon words in the description above as he picked up the bowl and ate the noodles.

With the mouth of the noodles, a salty smell suddenly filled the entire mouth.

Naoki: "..."

Sure enough, there was more salt.

Although I can't get used to eating, this is the only food left in the house at the moment.

Naoki endured it while continuing to study Goldfinger's situation.

In other words, the dishes he is making now can bring various magical abilities and buffs to the Pokémon he eats.

Probably?
