Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking

Episode 13. Give me more!

“Hey, can I take a look?”

“Oh, not yet.”

“Yes? You just used the appraisal skill…”

“Wait!”

“Yes…”

He is an impatient man.

If you wait a little bit, it will be returned to you.

I immediately used the insight skill.

This skill is used to appraise legendary items, special quest items, or ancient relics.

But I don’t know why such a message popped up on my drink in a new area like this.

‘It looks delicious, but…’

[Appraisal succeeded.]

[Kikiberry Juice]

– A premium drink made from the precious Kikiusa fruit. With 100% squeezed juice, the scent of fruit juice will make your mind go crazy.

– Effect: Recovers all magic power when consumed. Increases sanity by 20 and mana regeneration by 3x for 2 hours.

** Emotion: Results of using Insight **

– Rating: Rare

– Recipe first registrant: Jeon Tae-min

– Special player-developed cooking buff: Creator Jeon Tae-min’s skill ‘God’s Blessing’ attribute ‘Goddess Protection’ is applied (2 hours)

– Buff application level 10 (affected by the creator’s class level and attribute level)

– Elapsed time after creation: 3 minutes 16 seconds

– 120% Of the taste of the dish is applied when taken within 1 hour of making, 100% applied when taken within 24 hours. 20% Decrease for every 1 day thereafter.

– Corruption after 1 week of production. If it rots, the buff effect is not applied and the taste is reduced.

‘What is the goddess’ protection?’

I was able to confirm various information through insight.

I don’t really care about anything else, but it seemed important that there was an expiration date and that there was a hidden buff.

‘One week…’

It wasn’t like a cache dish that would last indefinitely if you put it in your inventory.

However, it seems clear that the effect is very outstanding.

Of course, it can’t be mass-produced using rare fruits, but it seems to be very useful in battle.

Then.

‘If you drink it now… It tastes 120%…’

Gulp.

Unknowingly, I swallowed my saliva.

‘I want to drink… So… It looks delicious…’

Rumbling.

‘aaagh!’

This bastard’s stomach is going wild again!

Hmm… My life is ruined.

Right now I am not even wearing a helmet.

Unbeknownst to me, the new face started to heat up as if it were about to burn.

* * *

“You must be very hungry. Driver.”

“Are you hungry, sister? Continued from earlier…”

“……”

I didn’t bother to say anything.

Even if it wasn’t so, her face was flushed red.

His expression is so embarrassing that he wants to die.

There’s no need to add unnecessary words to it to incur hatred.

“Can I take a look now?”

“……”

She pushed the glass forward without answering.

I immediately received it and checked the information.

“Let’s see… Oh!?”

His eyes widened.

‘As expected.’

Perhaps because he cooked a new dish, he had a new buff that was different from before.

God’s Blessing Attribute Goddess’ Protection increases maximum mana by 1% per attribute level.

Current attribute level is 80.

However, since the chef class level has just reached 10, level 10 is applied.

In other words, 10%.

‘This is an amount that can be used one or two more times with tolerable skills.’

Now the effect is insignificant, but my cooking life is still far away.

The level will steadily rise in the future, and the effect will naturally increase.

I decided to take it with pleasure.

‘Then now…’

In front of me, all five are staring at me.

I want to taste it too, but I can’t help it.

It’s not the material I’ve been looking for, and I’ve already promised to give it to you.

“Now! Who wants to drink first? I don’t know anymore, but they say it tastes best when eaten within an hour of making it?”

“Me! Me, me, me, me!”

“I knew you would. Would you like to yield?”

“Ah… That’s how it should be.”

The more I look at MooMu, the more he seems to be a good kid.

“Come on!”

“Hooray!”

Melissa took the glass I handed her to her very carefully, as if it were something precious.

“I’ll enjoy it!”

Slowly savoring the scent, he soon began to gulp down.

He’s a really big-hearted guy.

You have no intention of saving money.

That precious thing.

Everyone was staring at Melissa’s face.

“Hey!”

“How is it? Is it delicious?”

The reaction is smaller than expected?

Is the taste different?

“How is it!”

“Hmm…”

Melissa’s face slowly filled with joy.

“Hyaa… Something, I feel like I’ve matured.”

“What?”

“It’s good that you’re alive. To be able to taste something like this. Is this what being alive is like?”

“What do you mean by that! It was delicious!”

“Shh! It’s not a taste that can be expressed in words like that. Baby.”

Perhaps it was absurd to be treated as a child by Melissa, Mumu opened his mouth and couldn’t say anything.

Melissa suddenly burned her eyes.

“Mumu! Let’s get stronger quickly! That’s why we’re going to save all the fruits in the world and leave them to you! That’s a true adventure! Ah, just imagining it makes me feel goosebumps all over. hahahaha.”

Everyone’s eyes slowly turned to me after watching Melissa’s fuss.

I felt an unspoken pressure to let me eat too.

“Then I’ll make more right away. There are two more berries.”

I should put off checking the chef class skill tree for a while.

Because if we don’t fill their stomachs right away, we don’t know what kind of trouble will happen.

Especially on one side, since the beggar who was in the stomach from earlier is clamoring for food.

* * *

Two more glasses of juice were finished, and one was handed to Mumu.

And the last remaining drink.

The two guys who were urgently recruited from the adventurer’s guild took a step back knowing that they would only eat Jeon.

‘I want to eat…But then I won’t be able to.’

“Sleep.”

“…?”

“Eat.”

“Why…”

“Because it’s made from the fruit from the Kikiusa you hunted. And thank you for appraising the item. Please think of it as a return. Oh, and you helped with the party buff.”

I handed the other cup to the suspicious female knight.

“Just take it. You don’t have to feel pressured. Looking at it earlier, you look very hungry. Now I’ll serve you the evangelism.”

“……”

Perhaps she wanted to drink too much, but she didn’t express any refusal.

It’s just burning red.

I’m thinking it’s strange that a person’s face turns red like that.

I didn’t see him drinking.

She honestly wants to hear my impressions, but it’s because I don’t think she would even say it if I were watching.

I just tidied up my apron and began serving the jeon in earnest.

“Which pancake do you like? Green onion pancake, leek pancake, cabbage pancake, zucchini pancake, onion pancake, carrot pancake, potato pancake… That’s about it.”

“Potato…”

“Okay. Order received.”

Grinding potato pancakes takes a lot of work.

So, I chose shredded potato pancakes.

‘Whoa…Then first…’

First of all, it is shredded.

* * *

The man started cooking.

Children are excitedly watching, and two novice adventurers in the village are also watching with curious expressions.

I distanced myself from his booth a bit.

Because I don’t want to be seen drinking.

‘I’m also troubled by strange noises from the boat…’

The cup in my hand smells good.

‘I handed it over without any hesitation…’

It is a drink with a buff effect that could be worth quite a fortune if sold.

These days, people are starting to run out of cash dishes, so if you say you will sell it, you may be tempted to buy it here and there.

I might make quite a bit of money.

The man gave it to me as well as the children without any sign of regret.

‘He must have wanted to eat it himself.’

It seems I misunderstood.

His appearance is tough, but he doesn’t look like a scary person.

Of course, you shouldn’t believe it easily because there are all kinds of people in the world, but maybe…

She shook her head.

‘You’ve decided not to trust me now.’

The cost of trusting people has always been harsh.

So, didn’t you promise and promise again?

I am alone now.

“…!?”

What is this?

I took just one sip, but my mouth was full of freshness.

‘So sweet…’

I watched the entire production process.

No sugar or honey was added.

But the hand… The hand doesn’t stop at all.

Gulp, gulp… Gulp, gulp, gulp…

Ha ha!

“Ha ha ha ha…”

I drank it all in one go without even breathing.

‘Crazy. It doesn’t even contain ice.’

This is the first time I have tasted such a drink since I was born.

Cool, refreshing, and fragrant at the same time.

‘What’s so delicious?’

I’ve drank countless times when it comes to juice.

Starting with fresh fruit juice from a high-end cafe famous in the neighborhood, to premium products sold by large corporations.

I bought and tried a variety of drinks, but there was no drink that gave me this kind of feeling.

120%?

It is an amazing taste that can never be explained with just one word written on the information window.

‘Ah…’

Thirst surges.

‘Give me more… I want to eat more…’

I lifted the glass upside down and shook it vigorously.

I generously poured the remaining drop into my mouth.

‘Huh… Give me more…’

She slowly turned her head while crying.

I can see the face of a man who is sweating in front of the fire and working hard to make potato pancakes.

‘More!’

I approached him without hesitation.

* * *

Bang!

A clean, empty glass was placed on top of the stall.

“I’m surprised. Did you enjoy your meal?”

“…More!”

“Yes?”

“Give me more…”

“Ah… I’m sorry, but I don’t have any fruit anymore.”

“Yes.”

“Yes?”

“Come on.”

Several Kikiusa berries were placed on the stalls.

One of them rolled over and was about to fall to the side.

I hurriedly reached out and grabbed the fruit.

“Give me more. Juice…”

I slowly checked her expression.

A slightly flushed face.

Two eyes were full of greed.

“It’s just one drink.”

She put down a total of six fruits.

“One drink? But why are the fruits…”

“You too…”

“Yes?”

“Don’t you want to eat too…”

I opened her eyes wide and looked at her.
