Chapter 112The giant"s mineral, Elbaprium.
It was when Alexus was a king. This was a symbol of friends.h.i.+p that a blacksmith he was personally close to made for him. Later, it became one of the battle gears symbolizing the king of Atlan.
I recalled the text in the window and confirmed the changes. The spoon had been replaced by a "spear" and the skill had also changed.
[-Gourmet"s Eyes (Active)
(Cooldown Time: 30 minutes) (Duration: 5 minutes)
In the eyes of a gourmet, the target is viewed as a food ingredient. No target can avoid the eyes of a gourmet and it is possible to divide the target by areas.
* It doesn"t work for humanoid monsters.
* The damage will be doubled when hitting the ingredients area.
-Chef"s Wrath (Pa.s.sive)
Damage that ignores defense will be added to the spear. It is calculated based on the combination of the workmans.h.i.+p and super sensitivity stats. There is a certain probability of extracting food ingredients. (Current damage that ignores defense: 441)]
I got a chill when I read the explanation.
One of Alexus" cooking battle gear.
It was the moment when the first kitchen weapon appeared in the world.
[Chef"s Wrath is imbued in the spear.]
I could feel the fork spear trembling and crying out. It felt like it was alive. “Gourmet"s Eyes.”
[The eyes of a n.o.ble gourmet are imbued in you.]
I closed my eyes for a moment and when I opened it, the world looked different. Minotaur"s body suddenly looked like a piece of beef and I could see them a bit far away from here. Striploin, outside skirt, ribs, flap meat, inside ribs, etc. They were all delicious but the important thing was that they were far away. However, there were edible parts where I currently was.
[You have stabbed the "tripe" of the cow.]
[The damage that ignores defense has doubled.]
I started to continuously stab the spear as I ran. It was to avoid the incoming lava. Suddenly, I stopped at one point. “Oh, this is a really expensive area.
Tripe were usually thin parts used for common soup or hotpot but there were thick parts for barbecue. This was called "mountain chain tripe" and was mainly sold as "special grilled meat" along with blanket tripe. It was one of the most precious parts of the cow because of its small size.
[You have stabbed the "mountain chain tripe" special area.]
[You have dealt a critical hit!]
[A small amount of "Blazing Mountain Chain Tripe" has been acquired.]
I threw the mountain chain tripe on the fork into my inventory and quickly stabbed again while running at high speed. I also used Spider Climbing to run up the stomach wall. Minotaur"s resistance was great but I didn"t fall.
“Kuaack! Who…? You dare! You dare!”
[Minotaur of the Scorching Heat has 5% health left.]
His health that had recovered to 10% was halved again. Before I knew it, I was running past the honeycomb tripe and reticulum tripe.
[A small amount of "Blazing Reticulum Tripe" has been acquired.]
“It is delicious if you dip it in sesame oil.”
By the time I reached the reticulum tripe, Minotaur"s health was less than 3%. Then I reached the place that was my favorite part. “I"m going to drink a bowl of soju with reed tripe today.”
[Minotaur of the Scorching Heat has 2% health left.]
[You have dealt a critical hit!]
[A small amount of "Blazing Reed Tripe" has been acquired.]
“Ohhhhh!” I fell into an enlightened state as I stabbed the "reed tripe" area. My mind was full of determination to turn this guy into food.
[Minotaur of the Scorching Heat has 1% health left.]
“Uhh! This can"t be… no. Noooooo!”
After the last blow, an enormous number of messages rose up.
[World: Minotaur of the Scorching Heat, who has frightened Windia, has entered his eternal rest!]
Ttiring~
[Your level has risen!]
[Your level has risen!]
[Your level has risen!]
…
[Minotaur"s Huge Ribs have been acquired.]
[A demon king"s kin has been killed for the first time!]
[It is a tremendous achievement that no one can surpa.s.s!]
[The t.i.tle "Enemy of a Demon King" has been acquired.]
[Someone in the Demon World has noticed Minotaur"s death!]
“I didn"t gain as many levels as I expected.” After reaching level 100, the amount of experience required to level up had more than doubled. I had only risen 10 levels. Still, I was happy with this.
[Kuhaha! You really beat him. You"re pretty strong for a human! Chwiik!]
"Don"t be noisy. This guy. I"m tired."
[Kuhahaha!]
I didn"t know why I kept listening. Another message emerged as I was frowning.
[Many people have raided Minotaur.]
[You"ll be granted permission to select items in the order of who dealt the most damage.]
[Currently, you are ranked first for c.u.mulative damage.]
“Huh? There was something like this.”
Suddenly, a window appeared in front of me. At the same time, Minotaur"s body turned into ash and disappeared. The surrounding scenery turned into Windy Hill and familiar faces approached me. The first one who spoke was Michael, who threw me into Minotaur"s mouth. “You"re really alive.”
“Yes.”
“Who the h.e.l.l are you?”
“I…”
I was just about to answer when sparks appeared over my head.
[The wolf star, "Romelana," has connected.]
Had she restored her star spirit again? I told Michael to wait for a while and then spoke to the sky. “Minotaur is dead, Romelana.”
[The wolf star, "Romelana," is amazed at your capabilities.]
[The wolf star, "Romelana," is thanking you.]
“No, I was able to defeat him due to you. Thank you.”
[The wolf star, "Romelana," is saying she is flattered.]
Then Remus" Heart popped out of my chest. A lot of power had been consumed but the power of the black night was still spreading. The young people in the back had amazed looks.
“Oh, is that a Star Piece?”
“All the seals are released. It is absurd.”
“That"s why you were able to become so powerful?”
“Kuahaha! I like this type of guy! Join our guild!”
Their sudden attention was a bit burdensome. Just then, Romelana"s voice was heard in my head.
[Thank you, promised monarch.]
Um? I didn"t know she was going to talk like this. Moreover, this wasn"t the North Pole but the continent on the opposite side. She must"ve consumed quite a bit of star spirit. Romelana spoke like she read my heart.
[I wanted to say this with my voice. Once again, thank you so much. Remus in the sky can now relax a bit.]
“I hope so.”
[You haven"t forgotten the promise you made with me?]
“Yes, I"ll tell you when Aldebaran appears.”
It was at this moment.
[The wolf star, "Romelana," is calling dibs on you!]
This…?
I heard that constellations sometimes called dibs on those they were keeping an eye on. Of course, I never experienced it but I knew about it. It was also an opportunity to gain the power of a constellation.
[If you want to keep your promise then you must not die.]
Just then, a part of Remus" Heart that was floating in the air suddenly penetrated my chest again.
[The constellation skill, "Black Night Wolves Summoning," has been learned.]
[Black Night Wolves Summoning (Active)]
[Rating: Legend
Magic Power Consumption: 5%.
You can summon the black night wolves that live in the darkness.
They have 10% of the caster"s stats.
The more magic power that is consumed, the more the duration and number of wolves will increase (can currently summon 5).]
Romelana said, [Their survivability isn"t high because they don"t have the power of the black night but they"ll be able to protect you with some weak power. If you find Aldebaran then you can tell me the news through the black night wolves.]
“Thank you. However, will there be enough power to raise your rank?”
[This much is fine.]
“I see.”
I didn"t know if it would help much but it was one more thing that could be used conveniently.
…I should be able to ride them.
[May the protection of the stars be with you.]
Simultaneously, Remus" Heart soared into the sky. A moment pa.s.sed before a world message appeared.
[World: A wolf constellation in the North Pole has risen to be a first-grade star!]
* * *
Time pa.s.sed and I was face to face with those from the Zeus Guild. Kerenos had to hurry back to the village and I was embarra.s.sed by the sudden release of the transformation. Fortunately, the white tiger"s mask still remained and I was able to use it.
…I couldn"t wear the gnoll mask now. It was all torn.
Damian made a surprised expression. “I didn"t know that you are the Hero of Mulan.”
He spoke with an interested face and I replied, “Well, it is just a coincidence.”
“What is your level?”
“It is a secret.”
“Interesting.” The woman called Reina opened her mouth, “I like men with a lot of secrets. Huhut.”
No, why did she keep licking her lips?
Reinhardt exclaimed, “Hahaha! Won"t you think about joining our guild? I think we fit pretty well! Hahaha!”
“Thank you but I have no thoughts about that now.”
“I see! Hahaha! Then it can"t be helped!”
The man called Cappuccino looked displeased. “Hey, Reinhardt. You have to keep persuading him. Are you sure you don"t want to? A person as powerful as you can be raised by us.”
Raising me… it wasn"t very pleasant.
“I"m sorry. I"m comfortable alone.”
“Hmm, it"s a pity.”
Michael was leaning against a tree with folded arms before getting up and approaching. Then he opened his mouth, “You won"t be willing to reveal your ident.i.ty even if I ask?”
“Yes, I promised someone.”
“…It can"t be helped. Then pick an item.”
“Item? Ah, I just remembered.”
I suddenly remembered that I had the right to pick an item first. I opened the window to see what the items were.
[Minotaur"s Hammer]
[Minotaur"s Blazing Heart]
[Minotaur"s Blazing Leather]
…….
…….
There were more items than I thought? More items came out than when Remus had died the other day. In fact, I had given all the items to Romelana because I thought it was better for her to have them. Now things were different. “Hrmm.”
The hammer wasn"t something I could use so I had to hand it over. In the case of the heart, one of Minotaur"s skills could be randomly obtained if it was eaten. The problem was that the underlying attribute was permanently fixed as the fire attribute. There seemed to be more disadvantages than advantages.
Should I get the leather? I thought some pretty good clothes could be made if I brought it to Drain. However, the disadvantage of the maker having to be resistant to flames made the decision difficult. I thought for a moment before speaking to the other people, “I"ll take this.”
