Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 21

Episode 21

: Is this a dream or reality?

X, who was in a daze, shook his head.

“…This is not the time.”

Let’s try it!

The Bear Stance has ridiculous effects, but I didn’t think I would be able to feel it if I didn’t try it myself. To make an accurate comparison, X first checked the current stats.

_ ‘It went up?’

After a few days of hard work, my stats have increased significantly again. His physical strength was approaching 10,000, and his strength was not far behind that of most top rankers.

But it’s still too early to be surprised!

What if you use bear stance here?

X caught his breath and opened his mouth.

“Bear stance.”

Knock knock!

As soon as I used the skill, the muscles of my entire body began to twitch. Blood vessels swelled and muscles expanded. X gritted his teeth.

‘Incredible force!’

It was so powerful that I wondered if my body could withstand it. As if that wasn’t enough, a huge energy grew from inside my body so that I couldn’t control it.

‘You can’t be swayed by just one skill.’

This is the first recipe of the Gourmet King. I don’t know how many recipes the Gourmet King has left behind, but what’s the use of all of them if he can’t fully control even the first power he gains?

“Whoa…”

X concentrated his mind.

The purpose was to perfectly control this vast power without being dragged around. And soon, X succeeded in controlling this enormous power.

‘My body is full of vitality.’

Optimum body condition!

My body felt light and my head was clear. I could feel the change in my body with my senses, but I also wanted to see it with my eyes. X checked the stats again.

Strength: 1120

“You’re crazy, really?”

Double the power!

I gasped at the power that exceeded 1,000 points. Even based on simple calculations, you need to reach at least level 200 to exceed 1000 points of strength.

Moreover, you cannot invest all of your bonus stats in strength alone.

Considering other stats, including agility, there are currently less than 10 users in Fate whose strength exceeds 1000 points.

“This is not the end.”

Another effect Immune to all status effects!

The status abnormality effects that exist in Fate are endless. Poisoning, burns, fainting, confusion, frostbite, etc… But you’re ignoring all of those terrifying status effects!

‘In some sense, maybe I need this more?’

X smoothed his chin.

As usual, I imagined a battle with War Machine in my head.

Pouring magic.

You yourself are helpless against that magic.

And the vision turns gray.

The simulation always ended there.

The cause was simple.

Curse, Paralysis, Binding, Chaos!

Abnormal status magic with fatal effects! No matter how high your evasion ability is, it is impossible to completely avoid those magics.

X, who was thinking deeply, raised the corners of his mouth.

“With this, I can make at least 10 people my companions on the way to the underworld.”

Even if it is only for 30 minutes, you are immune to all abnormal status effects! What that meant was that at least you wouldn’t get hit unfairly due to a condition.

“Once every 24 hours. The buff effect lasts 30 minutes…”

Considering the enormous effect, it was a natural waiting time.

No, on the contrary, we should be thankful that that is all we have.

X quickly cleaned up his surroundings.

I picked up the scattered dishes and put them in my inventory.

‘What? It’s already been 10 minutes?’

As I said, this skill can only be used once a day! X felt like it was a waste to even spend time like this.

X muttered as he came out of the cave.

“You have to catch at least 100 fish in 20 minutes to make the most of it!”

Shoo shoo shoo!

An afterimage of X appeared in downtown Veneta.

“It’s convenient, but it feels like a loss?”

I wanted to come back on foot, but the mountains of Veneta are difficult. After much deliberation, X finally used the return spell. My hands were shaking because it felt like raw money had gone out.

‘Now that I’ve completed the Gourmet King’s recipe, I have to return to Calon.’

There was no need to see Beneta right now. I thought about saying hello to Raan, but I felt like going now would only be a distraction.

X checked the inventory.

“Wouldn’t it be better to dispose of it and go?”

Heaps of miscellaneous items piled up!

In fact, you could get the highest price by going to Narville and selling it to Rubin. However, currently, X had no money left in his pocket.

‘The Veneta spices were pretty good.’

I needed money right away to buy spices. Well, I suffered a loss, but it wasn’t a big loss. Currently, X is treated as a noble in Veneta. It was thanks to the Thier family heirloom.

‘I actually got a good price…’

At most, the difference will be a few silvers.

Even though it felt like a waste of even just a few silver coins, there was always a time to get into trouble! For now, it was beneficial to purchase spices that would have higher utility value in the future.

“Thank you! “I guess you’re very interested in cooking?”

The general store owner covered her mouth and laughed.

Cold Beneta was not a town with an outstanding food culture. Because of this, the spices were not sold, but as X purchased each type of spice, the intimacy seemed to naturally increase.

‘Thanks to you, I sold it without losing money.’

A total of 200 gold remains!

X left the general store, patting his pockets.

Before leaving Veneta, I took a look around.

The Thier family’s mansion could be seen on the hill there.

“You must never forget.”

A connection that allows you to get that precious rock metal for free!

X, with a smile on his face, walked towards Narville.

“It’s rewarding, but it’s so rewarding.”

Jiwon Lee felt so good that she even forgot about her throbbing back. That’s because he acquired an incredibly rare fraud skill!

‘I’m sure I’ll sleep well tonight.’

Sigh! Lee Ji-won immediately threw herself on the bed. The basis of a gamer is sincerity. Eat, sleep and play games! In order to reach the top, you have to repeat eating, sleeping, and playing games.

“Wow, the experience required increases significantly from level 50.”

Lee Ji-won, who was searching for information, stuck out his tongue.

I thought leveling up would be delayed after reaching level 50, but it turned out that the required experience points had increased significantly. I thought I knew why level 50 was considered a mid-level player.

‘Plus, it’s also a section where guilds thrive.’

Large and small guilds with dungeons!

Because of this, the growth gap between users who belong to a guild and those who do not has become extreme. There were many users in the community who were dissatisfied with the guild.

Real Mage: They used to do it, but now they have a monopoly on even low-level dungeons? Just do it in moderation. Guild kids have no business ethics. Do you only value guild members?

Long Legs Swordsman: Don’t get angry for no reason. Have you ever heard someone in a guild say something like this? If you heat up, you lose.

Gwiyeon: Haha then where should I go hunting now? I was thinking of not joining a guild or something like that because solo play is easier, but what can I do?

Lee Ji-won muttered while reading the comments.

“If you ask me, I have to join the guild.”

The world is not fair from the beginning.

That’s the same in Fate.

This is Lee Ji-won, the head of the huge guild War Machine in Lin Online. Of course, I’ve monopolized dungeons and done worse. Therefore, I couldn’t get angry about the guild’s atrocities.

‘Humans are originally such animals.’

If I do it, it’s romance, if someone else does it, it’s adultery.

That’s human nature.

Lee Ji-won was a person who did not disguise his true nature. Monopolize the dungeon for your own benefit? You can do even more than that.

“Still, there must be commercial ethics. “You idiots.”

However, there was something I felt as I got older and started living in society.

The more enemies you have, the more you lose!

In the long run, there was no need to make enemies by going out of your way to gain insignificant benefits.

‘In that sense, the majority of the Fate Guild are making a mistake.’

Lee Ji-won, who was looking around the bulletin board, was able to recognize it.

There are many people who have negative thoughts about guilds.

If this public opinion continues, the guild will eventually suffer losses.

Still, not all guilds were bad at so-called ‘politics.’

Jiwon Lee sneered.

‘I don’t like you guys in that sense.’

War machine.

Although they reign as the strongest guild in Fate in name and reality, they are not criticized by users.

To those who don’t know anything, it just looks like a fair and cool guild.

But Jiwon Lee knows.

‘Kaimus.’

The ringleader who pointed a knife at himself.

That innate political skill. He was a man who had a knack for coaxing, manipulating, and manipulating people. Kuuk! Jiwon Lee clenched his fist.

‘So overwhelming power is needed.’

politics?

In the end, conversation only works if the power level is similar. Ji-won Lee was not confident in defeating Kaimus through conversation. Because I’ve already experienced it being properly broken once.

However, with his strength, he was confident that he could crush Kaimus, or even the entire War Machine. A heavenly gourmet with that ridiculous scam job.

“It’s already time to sleep.”

A regular life just for games!

Soon, Jiwon Lee closed his eyes without any regrets.

Then he muttered quietly.

“Should I at least subscribe to a cooking channel? Just by learning a few things, you can increase your stats several times. Whether it works or not, let’s get started…”

*

Narville!

X’s face was bright as he arrived in that vibrant city again.

‘If you sprinkle spices on the food made by Mr. Kalon…’

Kalon, the best chef in Narville!

The number of dishes he makes is dozens! What if you combine a few spices there? Your abilities will increase significantly again.

“Besides, it’s free.”

Kalon has a huge crush on X. Additionally, if you hear that the quest has been completed, you can build a perfect trust relationship.

X headed to Calon’s restaurant.

At lunchtime, his restaurant was much busier than before.

‘The number of users has increased.’

It became apparent that the number of users was increasing explosively every day. Additionally, the ages of the users varied. Among the users eating at the restaurant, there were also elderly people.

“Is Senior Kalon there?”

“…senior? No, who is this! “Isn’t it X?”

“Thanks to you, I had a good trip. Seniors.”

“Oh, you’re not hurt anywhere? “Are you okay?”

Kalon saw X and welcomed him with open arms.

X explained to Calon what had happened.

From catching a cave bear to struggling to complete the Gourmet King’s recipe, to finally completing the Gourmet King’s recipe and seeing the anecdote of the Gourmet King and Kalsumar!

Kalon said, wiping his moist eyes.

“I see you’ve definitely perfected the recipe. “The dish made from cave bears was so bad that I couldn’t eat it… It’s just like Great-Grandfather Kalsumar said!”

Kalon also seemed to have heard something from Kalsumar.

X handed Calon a piece of meat.

It was cave bear meat.

“Would you like me to make it for you right now?”

“Is there any reason to kick out a customer? “I’ll just count it as something I ate.”

“…You just don’t want to eat it?”

“Hmm.”

Gourmet king’s cave bear dish!

Calon cleared his throat as if he was aware of its notoriety.

Soon a notification came to mind.

[You have succeeded in your quest!]

After checking the notification, X snarled and grabbed the boat.

“More than that, I couldn’t eat anything on the way. The north is not an extremely barren place. So, can I get something to eat?”

Kalon responded with a smile.

“of course! How could you starve your lovely junior? “I’ll make anything just for you to say the word!”

X said slyly.

“When it comes to senior Kalon’s skills, it is very difficult to choose just one. “Everything is incredibly delicious. So, I’d like to ask for everything on the menu!”

Explosive stat increase with various spices!

X flattered hard to suck the honey.

Munchkin that I eat all by myself
