It was a middle-aged man with a bulky build .

It was possible to a.s.sume that he was about mid-40s .

Cheol-ho tilted his head as if he had seen him once, and soon realized that he was the man he saw in the square during the day .

It was the man who was walking with his shoulders shaking quite badly .
The man asked quietly .

“Can I have ramen?”

“Oh, I’m sorry if you don’t handle ramen . ”
Was there a reason he was asking for ramen? Cheol-ho tilted his head but searched the cupboard .

Ramen is still popular these days .

The price had gone up further, and the taste has changed a bit since they used other ingredients instead of flour noodles . Still,  the cheap subst.i.tute for a meal was no different than 30 years ago .

“Sir…”

“Yes . ”
The man looked very depressed . The man also asked carefully .

“How much would a bowl of ramen cost?”

“Two dollars . ”

He called it at a low cost on purpose . The man’s eyes were bright for a moment .

“May I ask you for five bowls, then?”

“Five bowls? Can you eat that much?”
“Yes, of course . I’m begging you . ”

The man bent his back continuously . Cheol-ho tilted his head and looked at the man with his ability, detect eye .
-Tendency: Good

-Cla.s.s: The G.o.d of food

-Cla.s.s Achievement: Lowest

-Acquisition ability: Award
If one used the detect eye  more properly, they could see it in this way .
‘ I’m a food G.o.d . ’

The ability to eat and eat was the ability that even the ironclad knew . One of my past colleagues had the ability to own it .

‘You get  stronger as you eat food . ’

It also affected the quality of what was used as a material . For example, eating a high-grade monster would help someone achieve some results . If they ate more than that, they could become as strong, as much as they ate .
but .

There were two problems with the eating ability .

First, the early stages were too weak . After eating the meat of a moderately strong monster, it showed excellent abilities, but it was too weak in the beginning .

second 

‘Always hungry . ’

They were hungry no matter how much they ate .

If they made a certain level of achievement, it was much less then, but it had always been a hungry ability from the beginning .

Sure enough .

-rumbling, rumbling-

The man’s stomach was constantly roaring .

Cheol-ho stared at him and went into the kitchen .

If he had no idea, he could have just let it go .

However, Cheol-ho knew very well that a person who had the ability to eat extensively was suffering from hunger . It reminds him of his past colleague’s abilities .

Also, propensity was good .

‘Perhaps, if your tendencies weren’t good… …you’d have ignored it even if you were a glutton . ’

But good people were always struggling . In turbulent times, Cheol-ho knew that good people died first .

He felt strange . Thirty years ago, Cheol-ho looked somewhat sad when he thought he was a teenager .

He boiled the water in a large pot .

What food did he think of the most when he was hungry?

In the case of Cheol-ho, it wasn’t chicken or pizza, nor was it jokbal or bossam . It was ramen . Not j.a.panese-style ramen, just instant noodles .

Considering the spicy soup and the chewy side, he used to swallow his saliva without even realizing it .

Boiling ramen was no different .
First the water had to be boiled,  then the soup dissolved in it . One can put the whole noodle in, but he preferred to split it in half .

In the past, he actually liked to add different ingredients to ramen . But the end of tuning was pure love . Now, it was best to put the ingredients included in instant ramen and then beat one or two eggs while boiling .

It was hard to see eggs these days, so Cheol-ho decided to slice the Ataho steak into thin slices and put it on the ramen like Chashu instead .

He cut the grilled ataho sirloin that was left from when he was eating earlier . There were quite a bit of leftovers after eating .

“Hmm…… . ”
Originally, he was going to leave it like that and eat it again tomorrow morning with a little sauce, but he changed his mind .

‘If you’re a glutton, if you’re not good at learning, you’ll have a pretty good effect . ’

If one thought the fried noodles were properly loosened, then the pot should be covered with a lid for 10 seconds . Then moved straight to the plate . Noodles swell quickly .

Cheol-ho smiled pleasantly, looking at the bowl full of ramen .
* * *

“Ugh . ”

The man was startled and looked down at the meat in front of him .

“This, is this… . ?”

“I’m serving . ”

“Yeah?”

“Our store originally offers services to our opening customers . Come again next time . ”

“…… . ”

The man looked at Cheol-ho and soon bowed his head .

“Thank you, thank you!”

The man turned his eyes to two plates of meat and a huge bowl of five bags of ramen .

Whoo-hoo!

First, he grabbed the noodles with chopsticks as hard as he could and lifted them up . Then blew the wind to cool the noodles . As it cooled down, the smell of ramen spread everywhere .

No matter how cheap ramen was, its unique smell always made anyone hungry . Holding the noodles with chopsticks, the man lifted the bowl with his other hand and slurped the soup once .
Next!

He opened his mouth wide and inhaled the noodles . Nearly a bag of noodles disappeared in one bite . The man chewed the noodles as they were, and drank the soup .

‘You’re a good eater . ’

Cheolho looked at the figure with a pleased look . The man emptied out a bowl containing five bags of ramen . After drinking the soup neatly, he wiped his mouth with a napkin and looked at the meat plate .
Cheolho, who was watching, swiped across the fork and knife .

“Thank you . ”

The man bowed his head, holding a fork and slicing the meat with a knife .

“Oh my G.o.d, the meat is so thick . ”

While shaking his head, the man looked at the meat for a while as if he was ecstatic .

“Beautiful, huh?”

A man nodded at Cheol-ho’s words .

“Beautiful . ”

“You know something . ”

“Hahaha . ”

The man smiled merrily and took the meat to his mouth . And he closed his eyes slightly while chewing . Yes, that meat should be savored and eaten .

Cheolho liked such a man .
For so long, the man slowly ate Ataho sirloin .

Then, he took out a wrinkled bill from his pocket .

“Sir . I’m sorry for the mess of the money . I really enjoyed the meal . Thank you . ”

“Don’t mention it . ”

Cheol-ho stared hard at the back of the man leaving the store .

The man visited the restaurant for a while after that .

His orders were always consistent when he came . Five bowls of ramen . It was the cheapest food .
Whenever he came, Cheolho deliberately served other dishes as a service .

He used to come to the restaurant with an extremely hungry face every time, bowing his head and emptying his plate clean , then going back .

It was a great pleasure to have a customer who enjoyed the food . The man always emptied his plate neatly so as not to leave a drop of soup, and thanks to that, Cheol-ho greeted him by trying various dishes every day .

On the other hand, he was curious . What the h.e.l.l was he doing for a living?

Then came one early morning .
On his way back from shopping in the morning for the first time in a long time, Cheol-ho saw the back of a familiar man . He a.s.sumed he failed to find a job again today .

The man pulled the walker out of his backpack and put it on .

The man tramping somewhere in a rugged walker left Seodaemun Road, headed for an area where construction was in full swing, and bowed to a man who appeared to be a construction site executive .

The official looked as if he was familiar with it .

Cheolho looked at the figure with a wave . He had expected it .

Not getting a job was the case even before Cheol-ho moved to another world 30 years ago . It was so hard to get a job .
The reality now continued even in the midst of a complete change of times . The present era was harsh on those who do not have natural talent . It had become an age of perfect inequality .

“……”

” You must be hungry . “

The man covered up the three breads given at lunchtime and grabbed his stomach .

“…… . ”

It was the sorrow of a person who can eat and eat .
‘I heard it feels like a ball made of needles is rolling around in your body . ’

A food and body expert once said he felt such pain due to extreme hunger . Three slices of bread won’t leave your liver . The man went to the tap and drank water . He worked again after lunch time .

Cheol-ho watched the man who came out trudgingly after sunset, receiving his daily wage . Today’s labor was about $100 a day .

If someone had been working nonstop all day, they could at least spend a little on themselves , right ?

Every time he pa.s.sed by a fancy and delicious-looking restaurant on the street, the man paused and turned his eyes away . Putting his hands in his pockets .
A $ 100 bill received per day was held in hand . However, he shook his head .

His mouth was watering, but he spat out and walked with his eyes closed .

Did you think they had a family?

Aren’t you hungry?
Suddenly, he saw a group of children in school uniforms walking over there .

The man hid his distorted face with a stomach ache and smiled brightly at the crowd . And he waved, but soon shook his head with a sullen face .

He turned on the side of the alley where Cheol-ho’s restaurant was located .

Cheolho kicked the ground lightly once .

Paaang-!

Cheol-ho’s body moved with a soft wave sound . Cheol-ho, who moved like a breeze, suddenly arrived in front of the restaurant .
He would have to get ready for a guest .

The man who had seemed to be coming soon somehow did not come over on time . Did he go somewhere else? He felt a little upset, but he shook his head .

Cheol-ho was feeding his newly made stew to tangerine in his arms .
He ate the stew as if it were delicious .

Dragons seemed to be a very fast-growing species . Cheol-ho tilted his head to look at Tangerine, who had already doubled in a few days .

The tangerine was now the size of two chihuahuas . It seemed to be getting bigger .

Cheol-ho looked at something like plastic lying on the floor . He could now a.s.sume that this guy has shed .
Dragon skin basically did break away at this stage of growth . It was the shape of a tangerine, but it was a crispy dried skin like a well-done seaweed .
