66 Delicious Expedition
Oh Changwook sat on the sofa with a gloomy look on his face.
The TV was turned on right in front of him and was tuned in to the game channel, ATV. It was the channel that attracted the most viewers among the existing game channels in the country. The reason why it was the most popular channel compared to other game channels was because ATV broadcasted new job classes and various quests everyday as well as the special methods to target and acquire them.
At that moment, Lee Jinhwan, with a cup of coffee in his hand, approached Changwook. Changwook looked like he had lost everything in his world as he watched the TV.
âWhat seems to be the problem? Changwookie.â
âHuh?â
Jinhwan tilted his head at him while Changwook covered his face with his hands.
âGot dumped?â
âI confessed to Hyejin but she thought that it was just a lie! Why? The atmosphere was clearly nice tooâ¦â¦!â
âHmmâ¦â¦?â
Lee Jinhwan tilted his head in confusion.
It seemed like the Immortal Great Wizard Changwook had attempted to make a solo escape. But with the way things are, it looked like things did not turn out the way he thought it would.
âDid I make a mistake? I sent her a ka-talk message, replied a few times and even read and chewed every word.â
âBy any chance, can I see your ka-talk messages?â
Changwook handed him his mobile phone.
â......â
Jinhwan couldnât help but look at Changwook blankly after he saw the messages.
âNo, isnât the spelling wrongâ¦â¦? And I canât believe that you just told her that you love her with no rhyme or reason at all. Boy, you really donât have a love bone in your body!â
âYes?â
Jinhwan looked at him incredulously.
âItâs not ripe, itâs sociable.â
â......Itâs not the same?â
Jinhwan clicked his tongue at him. He thought that this was perhaps the reason why Changwook had defended his title of being an Immortal Great Wizard for quite a long time.
Then, at that momentâ¦â¦
The sound from the TV caught their attention. The voice that rang loudly in their ears was the voice that shouted âAmericaâs Box Office Number 1!!!â in movie trailers every day. Although no one knew how there could always be a movie that topped the box office every day.
Then, along with his voice, the scene on the screen changed. The screen showed the Elvesâ Land that had not yet been opened to the public.
The Demon Worshippers shouted loudly as portals cracked open. And from those cracks, demonic monsters as well as other demonic races came out. And in the middle of it, there stood an Elf. An elf with their pointy and sharp ears. The elf looked like he was knocking an arrow on his bow even though there was no arrow at all. But as soon as he let go of the bowâ¦â¦
Fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh!
Hundreds of arrows shot the demonic humans, demonic monsters and other demonic races.
Then, the scene on the screen changed again. It showed Ellie, the Empress of the Eivelis Empire and Asvon, the Emperor of Cordis Empire, sitting face to face.
The two people shook their hands together in agreement. Then, they kept on talking.
Along with their words, the story about the great and massive war was shown which was followed by the next words.
âOhâ¦â¦!â
âWerenât you just sulky earlier?â
Jinhwan clicked his tongue when he saw Changwookâs face regaining vitality in an instant after sulking for quite a long time in front of the television.
Changwook immediately went to check the official home page of Athenae to check about the elves. He saw that the elves would receive their points and they could exchange for things that they wanted with them. In particular, the items that the elves sold were things that were rare and had never been released before.
Then, Changwook turned and asked aloud.
âPerhaps thereâs something good to eat with the elves?âVisjt nðvelbin(.)cðm for new updates
He pondered deeply about this possibility.
âA gorgonzola pizza made with the elvesâ honey, elvesâ dark beer, elvesâ bibimbapâ¦â¦ hmmâ¦â¦â
An idea flashed through Changwookâs head.
âThis is 100% perfect for Minhyukie!!â
Minhyuk could see that the presence in front of him was the previous Food God, Allen. This was his first time ever meeting him.
Currently, Minhyukâs level had shot through Lv380 in an instant.
âHoo. Youâre not as fat as I thought. Rather, you look very tiny and small.â
âThe Food God is the same too.â
Minhyuk smiled at him. He couldnât help but be pleased with his appearance since he was also a man who loved to eat as much as himself.
âI donât have a lot of time. I can only stay here for a while.â
It made sense since the Food God was already dead.
âHave you checked my request?â
âNot yet.â
âLook at it.â
Minhyuk immediately checked the contents of the quest.
It was a special quest that would not mete out any penalty even if he failed. It was also a class quest that did not have anything to do with the five Godâs Legacy Dishes.
The other gods thought that the Food Godâs descendants would be lazy and weak?
It was laughable. However, to some extent, Food God Allen couldnât help but agree. The transfer to the Food God Class was all about eating. First, they had to fill their fullness stat until 10/10 then they had to choose the pig instead of the legendary class, Berserker. It was truly about food and food alone! This was the reason why it was quite hard for his descendants to have a strong presence.
But Allen was able to gauge his strength. Then, he reached his hand out slowly.
âBoy, I wonder how far youâve gone in your journey. Will you take this stone?â
Minhyuk reached his hands out and grabbed the stone in Allenâs hand. It was an energy stone. The energy stone could gauge the power of the person holding the stone but it would not be able to gauge the strength of someone with a strength of around Lv470 or higher.
When Minhyuk held the stoneâ¦â¦
Crack ,crack, crack, crackâ
Allenâs eyes widened in shock when he heard the sound of cracking coming out of his hands.
âWh, what the hellâ¦â¦ this soundâ¦â¦â
Food God Allen was flustered. Just like what was mentioned earlier, the energy stone would not be able to gauge the power of someone around Lv470 or higher.
Even though it was an average of all of his skills, stats and the artifacts that heâs wearingâ¦â¦ he has a force above Lv500?
Then, it broke.
Flop!
The energy stone broke in Minhyukâs hands.
âBoyâ¦â¦ What have you been doing so farâ¦â¦â
Food God Allen looked at him in shock. He knew that the breaking of the energy stone meant that his general strength was at least at Lv500 or higher.
Minhyuk tilted his head in confusion when he saw Allenâs shocked face.
âIâve just been working hard and enjoying my meals. Just like you, Food God-nim!!â
He answered Allenâs question cheerfully. When Allen saw his bright smile, he couldnât help but laugh loudly.
âYou truly are my descendant!â
âEyy. Thatâs still a long way off. Donât you think that I still need to be able to eat roasted fish with Dragonâs Breath to be called a proper descendant of yours?â
âAh. Right. You havenât tried it yet, right? Boy? If you eat it after fully roasting it with Dragonâs Breath, the smell of smoke will spread in your mouthâ¦â¦â
Gulp.
The two people gulped their saliva at the same time. It seemed like they truly were working at the same wavelength.
âAh. Wait, wait. I donât have enough time. Will you be accepting my bet?â
âOf course. The rewardsâ¦â¦â
Allen shook his head when he saw Minhyukâs excitement.
âThatâs right. Arenât the rewards great?!!!â
âIâm very, very, very happy! I will definitely make all of that happen!â
The rewards written in the quest were the epitome of midnight snacks. The Bizarre Tteokbokki Set and the Spicy Chicken Feet Set.
Although very occasional, there would be days like that when you crave spicy food. Those days usually happened when someone was extremely stressed out. And during those stressed out days, one would definitely order the Bizarre Tteokbokki set as well as the Spicy Chicken Feet Set.
He could imagine himself lifting the lid of the tteokbokki set and seeing the melted cheese that was glowing in white light. Underneath the cheese was the red tteokbokki as well as the vienna sausages and dumplings. There were also soft and plump boiled eggs inside.
Eating the spicy tteokbokki and chicken feet would definitely make him sweat and say âSlurpâ Ho!â with the delicious hotness of the food. The spiciness and heat would make him hurry and reach out for a drink of cold and refreshing Julpis. Minhyuk personally preferred the peach flavor among the variety that Julpis offered. He was sure that the refreshing and cool Julpis would definitely wash away the tingling in his mouth. Continuously eating the spicy and bizarre tteokbokki would definitely cause him pleasurable pain but just like the demonâs temptation, he would definitely keep on reaching out for more! And after eating the tteokbokki, he would then set his sights on the spicy chicken feet.
After those thoughts crossed his mind, he believed that he definitely had to do this.
âFood God-nim, is the Food Godâs kitchen knife the artifact that you used in the past?â
âYes. It has a very, very special and amazing power.â
However, Minhyuk was not interested in anything else aside from food. Looking at him, Allen smiled pleasantly.
âAs expected of my descendant! Yes! You should know this!â
âEyy. What will I do with an artifact that I wonât be able to eat?â
âRight. Itâs something you canât eat. I also wanted all of the rewards for you to be food but God Athenae stopped me!!!â
âHahahahaha! That would definitely be a happy thing!â
The two of them really hit it off.
Meanwhile, Corr and Rowena muttered to themselves as they watched the scene in front of them.
âIâm going nuts.â
âItâs like Iâm watching a gluttonous dad and his sonâ¦â¦â
Then, Minhyuk suddenly thought of something.
âAh! Do you have any special cooking utensils?â
âSpecial cooking utensils?â
âYes. I got a Half-God Artifact Production Method.â
Minhyuk spoke quietly but Allenâs eyes couldnât help but widen in shock.
âN, no. What in the world were you doing?!!â
Half-God Artifact Production Method?
Allen knew the power that it held. He also knew one piece of information. The special treasures of those beings. When one collected all the treasures they would be able to produce any type of artifact that they wanted.
Allen gulped as he nodded his head.
âThere is. A very amazing artifact. But, youâre still a long way off.â
âWhere is it?â
âDemon World.â
