Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking

Episode 7. Running race

“Mister!”

I turned my head in surprise.

“Huh? Melissa and Mumu! What are you doing here?”

This is an empty lot in front of the village.

There is no such thing as a dungeon nearby.

Since it is a field away from the main road, of course there are few people passing by.

“It smelled delicious, so I followed the smell and found this man.”

“Smell? Where have you been?”

“In the village.”

“Billion… You said you could smell it all the way to the village?”

I came all the way here on purpose just in case, but I think I need to get farther away.

I don’t want to be a nuisance to the residents.

Because I don’t want others to see me frustrated by failure.

“What is that?”

I checked the expressions of the two girls.

Then he smiled happily.

“A new dish.”

“Oh, that sounds delicious.”

“Yeah… I see.”

Even without asking, I think I know why these guys came all the way here.

Both of them were on the verge of saliva flowing down their gaping mouths.

“Do you want to eat?”

“Yes! It’s great!”

“Me too…”

I set one condition.

“See that tree over there?”

“A tree?”

I pointed to a lone tree about 30 meters away.

“Whoever touches that tree quickly, I’ll cook a whole chicken for free.”

“Really? Eight!”

“Meh, Melissa, that’s against the rules! Where are you going first!”

Melissa quickly jumped out after watching her, and Mumu followed her belatedly, vomiting her displeasure.

However, the results were slightly different.

Even though Melissa started first, she was overtaken by Mumu just before she arrived.

Perhaps it was because of the class difference between the two.

Because the warrior class has a faster basic movement speed than the wizard class.

But it wasn’t a huge difference.

Probably because they both just became adventurers.

There is almost no equipment difference.

“Now, roast whole chicken for first place.”

“Thank you.”

Mumu excitedly started tearing off the chicken legs.

“Wow. It’s truly unchangingly delicious.”

“Mumu… You traitor. I want to eat too.”

I handed the new menu Pajeon to Melissa, who was about to burst into tears.

“Melissa is second prize. Now, just tear this up and dip it in soy sauce and eat it. If chopsticks aren’t good enough, you can just eat it with your hands.”

“Second prize?”

“Yes. It’s second place, so let’s go.”

“Well, is it really okay to eat? I lost?”

“If you don’t like it, quit…”

“Oh, no. Thank you. I’ll enjoy it.”

Mumu hurriedly swallowed the chicken meat in his mouth without chewing.

And she has been appealing.

“Hey Mister… Can I have a new dish?”

“Why. You don’t like chicken meat?”

“No. It’s really good. But I was really curious about what it would taste like…”

“Whoah… Hoh, hoh, this is hot and it’s so good. It’s like a thousand times better than chicken.”

‘A thousand times passive for Melissa…’

Next time, I won’t make a fuss about his overkill.

Mumu couldn’t stand it and shot at Melissa, who was eating the jeon deliciously.

“Melissa! You hate green onions!”

“When will I? I love it now!”

“Joe, save a little. Trade it for a chicken leg.”

“I hate it.”

‘It’s strange. There’s no way it tastes better than fried chicken… Well, I’d like to try something new, too.’

In fact, there are still a lot of jeon that I made.

In the inventory.

But I can’t make them eat right away.

“Now, guys, stop fighting. Let’s just have one more running race. Whoever wins this time, I’ll give you a new cooking leek match. In return, no one loses this time. And no foul play!”

The two girls emptied their food and immediately stood up.

“I will never lose this time.”

“Sorry. I can’t lose either. I must eat that.”

I shouted as I lowered the hand raised above my head.

“Go!”

The two girls gnashed their teeth and ran.

I felt the conviction that I would never lose.

However, the results diverged sooner than expected.

Melissa, who jumped out from the start, gradually widened the gap to the finish line and won overwhelmingly.

It was the effect of the cooking buff.

‘As expected, it would be really fraudulent if the cooking level went up further.’

Mumu, who arrived late, was looking at Melissa with an expression of nonsense.

“Uh, how…”

“hehehehe. Didn’t Mumu eat too much chicken? It’s really slowed down.”

Feeling so unfair about losing, Mumu touched Melissa’s legs here and there.

“You cheated on something! Did you learn some new magic?”

“Kyaaa what are you doing, you idiot! It’s tickling! Euhhehehe, ah, it’s tickling!”

I looked at the two guys with satisfaction and put the first prize in front of me.

“Come on! First prize.”

“I’ll eat well!”

Melissa made eye contact with mine as she shoved her ex into her mouth.

Then he smiled very brightly.

‘This guy. They seem to think that I sided with them and helped them win.’

Running was simply a device to dramatically show the buff effect included in cooking.

However, I ended up buying a misunderstanding.

“Come, Mumu, come and eat.”

“I… Lost…”

“Eat it because it’s okay. There’s still a lot of it.”

I took out dozens of coins of various kinds from my inventory and placed them on the stalls.

“You promised the other day. If you complete the delivery request, we will feed you. This is the reward.”

“Wow! So many…”

“Go, thank you, I’ll eat well!”

Mumu was so curious about the taste of the food that he picked it up with his hands and began to eat it hastily.

“It would be bland if I ate it that way. Dip it in soy sauce and eat it.”

“Atte de… Whoa, whoa.”

“Mister, I really like the smell of chives.”

“Yeah. Eat more Melissa too.”

‘They both look as if they’ve heard a rumor…’

It seems that my cooking is rather delicious.

‘Oops! You need to get your mind right. I almost showed a strange expression again.’

Even just looking at it makes me smile.

The corners of the mouth dance freely and point upward.

‘I never thought cooking would be this much fun.’

I was very surprised by the buff effect, but I think it doesn’t matter even if there is no such thing.

If only there was always someone who would eat my food this deliciously.

‘Still, it’s still a long way off.’

This was just the beginning.

* * *

A street stall where two girls are eating something delicious.

In front of him, a group he had never seen before came closer.

“Hey…”

“Yes. What is it?”

I was more worried about the suspicious group that suddenly approached.

Do you mean to tell me to get out of here?

Was it an owner’s land?

When you are worrying about this and that inside.

A middle-aged man at the front of the group said.

“How much are you selling it for?”

“Yes?”

“If you’re in business, let me taste it. How much is it?”

“Looking at it, it seems like there are still a lot of them. You’re selling this, right? Seeing these kids eating so deliciously makes your mouth water and you should be able to hold it in.”

“Let me have one too.”

What kind of situation is this?

I had no intention of starting a business.

Today, I wanted to focus on recipe development.

But what kind of absurd situation is this all of a sudden?

“Oh, how much!”

I called for a reasonable price.

About 8 small fairy tales are needed for one meal at the lowest price at the village restaurant.

3 Middle fairy tales to eat heartily.

It’s one big fairy tale to eat a little high-end gin.

The value of each fairy tale is tenfold according to its size.

A sack of flour for the ten biggest fairy tales…

In terms of material cost, one medium fairy tale is a reasonable price.

Since a bag of flour can fry hundreds of pancakes, it is a business with enough surplus.

But my cooking has a huge buff effect.

‘No matter how cheap it is, it’s troublesome. I wonder if it’s free.’

I called a little expensive.

Although the level of the chef is still low, and the cooking is not very technical, it cannot be paid for in a restaurant in a big city.

I thought I would get the price for high-end cuisine sold in Salem.

“One big fairy tale, one full story.”

Villagers hesitated a bit, as if they thought it was expensive.

However, it seemed that the children eating in front of them kept shouting that they were delicious, so they couldn’t stand it.

“Ah, it feels good! Give me one!”

“It’s a bit pricey, but I’d like to try one too. How can a dish have such a fragrance? Isn’t it?”

“Please let me taste it too.”

It is difficult to start anything.

One person said he wanted to eat it, so others also wanted to taste it.

And as if it was amazing to see people sitting here and there eating, people poured out endlessly from within the village.

“Ugh… So many…”

In an instant, the transfer I had made in advance ran out.

‘Still, I have to row when the water comes in.’

I immediately started sending a new jeon.

“Two more here!”

“I have five copies!”

“Ten sheets to take home and eat instead of dinner, please.”

There was an uproar over the deliciousness here and there.

People who had tasted the food made a fuss, and even those who had been watching with their hands behind their backs began to line up, unable to hold back their curiosity.

“Young man, do it quickly. This is how it will end!”

“hahahaha… Yes!”

“By the way, what the hell do you put in to make it so delicious? Do you have any secrets?”

“There is no such thing.”

“It’s a secret recipe, and I’m trying this kind of dish for the first time! What’s your name? Jo Oh-on? John is the name of my late father…”

All the stars of the stars came to taste it.

No one even ate one piece and disappeared.

‘This, it looks like I’ll be sick tonight…’

I couldn’t even rest and had to send an order to die.

But it wasn’t hard at all.

Rather, it was a very pleasant feeling.

Because you made a lot of money?

It wasn’t just that.

“Can I help you?

“No. It’s okay. You eat more too. You guys are free.”

“Hee hee, no. There are so many people waiting in line because they want to eat. What’s wrong? We’ll eat next time.”

‘These cute guys.’

When I develop a new menu, I decided to feed these guys first.

“aaa! How can this taste like this!”

The person who tasted Jeon for the first time in the back started to run away again.

Only the intensity is different, but there are already dozens of people.

I screamed for joy in my heart as I was sweating profusely.

In addition, the next menu came to mind.

“You don’t sell drinks?”

“I want to drink water too.”

“It tastes like I want to have a drink… Beer would be nice.”

Next, I should try making a fruit drink.

‘Isn’t it still too much to drink?’

“hahahahaha, get ready, this land!”

“Run! It took ten copies of the transfer!”

“Huh, it runs well!”

Behind the scenes, they even started running races.

What started as a way to feel the buff effect has now become a betting run.

‘Ha… Ha ha…’

I couldn’t help but be amazed at the ripple effect that one food stall and one dish brings.

Even my cooking level was only 8.
