Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 278
Episode 278:
Xernis’ office.
X was distracted by the influx of letters.
“Ugh, my head hurts just looking at it.”
“When you do something you’re not used to doing, your body goes crazy.”
“Anyway, I don’t think sitting still and just looking at text is suited to me.”
X was performing the role of a lord for the first time in a long time.
The great national flower empire of the Eastern Continent!
It was Xernis who established a blood alliance with the Fire Empire that went beyond an alliance.
It was natural for all the lords of the Arba Continent to send letters and other personal letters to X.
“The world situation changes all the time. But you shouldn’t be conceited. For now, let’s just think we rode the wind and waves well.”
Literally a trend!
Death of Las Loren and the generals.
The Kingdom of Arba is virtually disbanded. Because of this, the lords needed strong support. So, if I were to explain this complicated situation in one word…
‘It’s a situation where everyone is desperate to score points with me.’
The purpose of the letters piled up on the desk is ultimately flattery.
‘I won’t fall for another rumor.’
However, X examined the documents thoroughly, assessing the pros and cons.
Naturally, the standard of judgment was the lord of the territory. Zawl tilted his head as he checked the correspondence X had filtered.
“Hmm, there doesn’t seem to be anything bad about interacting with Malondia?”
Malondia was a mining town.
By establishing exchanges with Malondia and importing minerals, Xernis’ technological power could grow even faster.
But who is X?
A greedy person who can’t see what’s going well for others! X frowned and waved his hand.
“The lord there is a useless man. “Rumors suck.”
The lord of Malondia is a player!
No matter how fair the deal was, it was impossible to put the precious gold of Xernis into a competitor’s wallet.
‘Once the disconnected continent is revealed, we may be able to import high-quality minerals that cannot be compared to iron ore at a low price.’
X adhered to his own rules and classified the letters.
Tiroling!
[You have accepted Narville’s request for exchange!]
I did not forget to quickly accept the proposal for territories where there were no grounds for disqualification.
But it’s Narville.
While reading the letter, X recalled the first beginning.
‘After all, we have to start from here, right?’
Descendants of fellow gourmet kings!
There was Calon in Narville.
Kalon, a descendant of Kalsumar, is very picky, but has excellent cooking skills and shield skills.
Heavenly Gourmet’s job quest. For that purpose, X had to search for descendants of heroes like Kalon.
It is said that even the bull’s horn was removed because it was sweet.
X looked at Zawl’s gaze and slowly stood up.
“Hmm, since it’s the first day, I’ll leave it at that.”
“Still, I did more than I thought. “I thought I’d be gone in 30 minutes.”
“I’m not interested in this kind of work, so when I do, I’m good at it. So, I’ll take care of the rest when I come back!”
I wonder if Jaul will catch him.
X quickly left the office.
I took out a purple cone hat from my inventory and put it on.
“let’s go. To Narville.”
*
Robes like bulk!
A conical hat that looks like it might tear if the wind blows!
Armed with extreme fashion, X escaped Xernis through a tunnel.
X’s shoulders felt empty unlike usual. It’s been a while since I disguised myself, but I can’t bring Yongyong back.
“Besides, he seemed happy to meet Malang for the first time in a while. You can’t break the mood without notice. “Right?”
But X wasn’t lonely.
Tap!
Skeleton Liglian replied grimly, accompanied by the sound of bones.
“So you will take me with you?”
Liglian was not in a very good mood.
It’s been so long since I woke up that exploring the East Continent is now a bothersome chore.
He was filled with the desire to fall into eternal sleep again. However, X now spoke like a snob even in front of Liglian.
“But you still have to see faces once in a while. And there is no one who knows the heroes of the past better than Liglian.”
Like Kalsumar, Ligrien served the King of Gourmet. Liglian would have some idea of his comrades’ whereabouts.
Dudeuk!
Liglian turned his head coldly.
“Hmph, it would be nice if I didn’t notice.”
“Everyone will be biding their time.”
“It is said that a long period of time changes all things. Baby. Even the weak human heart.”
A whopping 300 years.
Even if the team changed, it was understandable that Liglian showed a negative attitude as it would have changed several times.
But X is a man who doesn’t give up! Moreover, it was no exaggeration to say that when it came to persuading others, I had now achieved the goal.
“Do not worry. “If you look at me like this, I have a charm that even charms the gods of the heavens.”
“…what the hell.”
“Let’s try to convince them completely!”
We will persuade and rally the descendants to complete the quest!
X was motivated to collect the puzzle pieces. However, the energetic steps were stopped at the gates of Narville.
Eyes of suspicion pouring in.
The guard asked.
“Excuse me, but where are you from?”
“I’m just an ordinary traveler passing by.”
“He may be a traveler, but he doesn’t look ordinary.”
Sigh.
The guard looked X up and down. Even though the clothes were shabby, this was enough. The problem was the skeleton next to X.
The eye sockets of a chilled skull that look dissatisfied at first glance!
“How dare you….”
Just before Liglian had an accident.
X responded urgently.
“Can’t you tell by looking at this hat? This is the skeleton I summoned. As you can see from the outfit, it has no attack capabilities. “It looks scary at first glance, but in reality it’s not dangerous.”
What is this guy talking about?
Liglian turned his head towards X.
X did his best to ignore those stinging gazes. The guard seemed to be convinced by X’s three-chill tongue play.
“If you say so, I understand. However, we would appreciate it if you would be careful not to cause a disturbance. “A group of thieves has been rampant recently, so the atmosphere is not good.”
Is it possible?
X nodded sharply and entered Narville. I asked for understanding from Liglian, who was displeased.
“I had no choice in order to work comfortably.”
“This is my first time seeing someone like you who doesn’t know how to use his fame.”
“There is no need to draw attention to it for no reason.”
X’s reputation soars day by day! If he hadn’t disguised himself, the guards wouldn’t have stopped him.
One problem was the players that would be flocked to it. I needed to meet Kalon, but there was nothing good about receiving their attention.
“Then let me go in first.”
Restaurant in Calon.
It was still crowded with customers.
X opened the door and entered.
The man who had been bowing his head frowned.
“Welcome to fifty… Hey. “No begging here.”
At the sound of begging, a large man came forward.
“What’s going on youngest child?”
“No, look at that little bastard. Seniors.”
“…Yes?!”
But to that big guy, X’s face was extremely familiar.
It was worth it because he had personally witnessed X frying chicken here in the past!
The man who made the picky Kalon Master cry with food. In Calon’s restaurants, X was a legendary figure.
Salute to the legend!
He bowed his head towards X.
“It’s been a while since I saw you. Eek….”
“Shh. “The name is fine.”
“All right. “You have a situation.”
The only person who was in trouble in that situation was the new recruit.
‘ruined.’
The newbie sighed inwardly. I felt uneasy because I had made a mistake with an important guest.
Then the door opened again.
“Welcome fifty… show?”
This time, there was a skeleton in front of me.
I’m already in a really dirty mood, but I’m still undead.
“Go back to your master, you bastard!”
“?”
But this time, he learned that he had caused a major accident.
Hurry!
The sound of heavy footsteps coming from the kitchen. Isn’t Calon, who ran out holding the aperture in his hand, bowing to the skeleton?
“I should have gone to see you sooner, I’m sorry. “Elder!”
The newcomer’s eyes darkened.
“…Did I make a mistake?”
The boss is embarrassed by beggars and skeletons.
The newbie felt like the sky was falling.
But how can we predict such a dog-eat-dog situation?
It was Ex and Liglian who unintentionally ruined the new employee’s first day at work.
*
The business ends there.
Kalon burst into laughter.
“It’s not X. Should I call you Lord now? Anyway, your fame has spread far and wide in Narville. “I heard you discovered the Eastern Continent?”
“Yes, I came after some trouble.”
“This guy, please talk kindly to me too.”
“yes. “The old man also worked hard.”
Kalon looked annoyed at Liglian. It was only natural that Liglian was the same age as Kalsumar.
Kalon, who emptied his glass in one gulp, spoke.
“I think I understand why you came to visit me.”
“Are you really a dull person like me?”
“Aren’t you a bit too much of an old man?”
It’s a shame because they sent all the employees home from work. Calon, who smacked his appetite sheepishly, continued.
“The day has finally arrived.”
“that day?”
“The day when distorted history will be corrected.”
Ex and Liglian looked at each other and nodded. At this point, I felt like I could slowly get to the point.
X explained to Kalon the story of Las Loren, the White Mask, and other beings.
Thick Kalon’s hands were shaking.
“Is that really true?”
“Not a single lie.”
“I never thought… such a terrible force would be involved.”
Kalon’s shaking eyes soon turned solemn. Although he now runs a restaurant while hiding his identity, he was also a man with the blood of a hero.
“Just let me handle whatever happens.” “Our clan cannot be left out in the war for the world.”
They are ready to raise their swords and shields at any moment! But there was no need to fight right away.
The Kingdom of Arba and Ras Loren, which were considered the main enemies, have already been swallowed up by other beings.
The main enemy has changed to another being, and if you rush at them hastily, you will only taste defeat.
X conveyed his opinion.
“Now is the time to increase our power.”
“Increasing power… Good, I finally understand.”
Kalon immediately took a piece of paper and started scribbling with a pen.
“Ex, after meeting you, I also did some research of my own. “I wanted to find all of my descendants, but I could only find three people.”
It was a piece of paper with the names and locations of the three people written on it. X quickly packed the valuable information into his inventory.
Liglian also moved his jaw.
“There are people who remember it, but it is such an old memory that I cannot be sure that it will still be the same now. “I think it would be a good idea to go to the place Kalon told me about first.”
It seemed like it would be best.
That’s how Ex and Liglian left the restaurant. If I walked quickly, I could reach the place Kalon told me about within today.
Kalon saw the two off to the door.
“I think we’ll see each other more often from now on.”
“Why don’t you stop by Xernis?”
“of course. “I have to see heaven on earth at least once in my life!”
Calon added, as if he had thought of something.
“Oh, I guess I’ll have to take my student with me too. He also often talked about you. “I think I will be very happy to meet you.”
“Disciple? “Well, that’s good.”
This was because the number of tourists willing to spend gold in Xernis was increasing. There was no reason to refuse.
“See you next time then!”
After saying goodbye one last time, the two left Narville. Liglian spoke from a quiet place.
“Are you going to take the teleport?”
X, who was thinking, shook his head.
“No, I have somewhere to stop by.”
If you go about an hour from Narville, you can see the desert.
The home of the cult.
The desert of oblivion.
“Since we’ve come all the way here, I should at least make sure they’re calm.”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
