Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 28
Episode 28:
Hidden Place: Beach of the Dead!
The key to that place was an undead fish that came after a week of waiting.
Although X was once again surprised, he remembered Kalon’s words.
“If you had known this, you would have told me.”
I could tell.
This is an impromptu test by the eccentric Liglian.
From the first time I heard that he had an eccentric personality, I didn’t expect it to be easy.
“Let me see.”
Shoot!
A black sea with crashing waves.
A gloomy sky that looks like it might rain at any moment.
It was an ugly sight to anyone’s eyes, but X kept a smile on his face.
“This looks much better. “Quiet.”
How tired I was!
Hahahoho. Just not hearing that laughter anymore made my body feel so light that it felt like it was going to fly.
X found a mansion at the end of the beach.
‘There must be Liglian over there.’
The only building rising on Dead Man’s Beach!
Of course, I could guess that this was where Liglian was. X headed towards the mansion with light steps.
The Gourmet King’s second recipe! I couldn’t help but hum as I imagined what kind of effect it would have.
“But I don’t think they will tell you easily…?”
It was the same when I looked at the behavior I had seen so far.
The moment when X realized that there would definitely be trials ahead.
Knock knock knock!
An ominous energy was felt on the beach along with strange sounds.
X was shocked and took out his equipment.
sparkle! I found weapons clanking in the dark.
“For a welcome greeting, it seems like it’s too harsh to live in…?”
Is this also the work of the eccentric Liglian?
X sighed as he looked at the skeleton.
I barely made it to Dead Man’s Beach and was greeted by a group of skeletons!
Swish! X dodged the attack of the flying skeleton.
‘It’s pretty fast? The level is higher than it looks.’
Poorly rusted weapons and somewhat sloppy appearance.
But the movement was real.
X gave an estimate.
‘Even if they can’t do it, they are over level 80.’
Skeleton army over level 80!
Knock knock knock!
As the current supply was not enough, skeletons were constantly being summoned.
puck! X first struck down the nearest skeleton.
Hood!
A skeleton shattered in one blow.
X confirmed that the guy had collapsed and at the same time checked his experience level.
Soon, the corners of X’s mouth went up.
“…This is quite interesting, isn’t it?”
I thought I was level 80, but it seemed like my level was higher than that.
Skeletons that give quite high experience points and boast a huge quantity!
‘I’m still not satisfied.’
It was an X that I could only raise to level 1 after fishing for a week.
X’s eyes burned brightly.
puck! Hood!
X focused on hunting while avoiding the barrage of skeleton attacks.
‘If it’s a welcoming ceremony like this, I’m welcome too!’
Experience points accumulate at an incredible speed!
X caught the constantly summoned skeleton.
Tiroling!
[Your level has risen!]
Tiroling!
[Your level has risen!]
Thanks to this, you have accumulated the experience points that only an executive level in a large guild can enjoy.
Crrrrr!
I also didn’t forget to occasionally use dancing stems to increase my skill level.
‘Shall we try this this time?’
The falcon’s golden claws!
I was able to test the power of my newly acquired bow without any hesitation.
“This is why you were an angel and not a weirdo.”
That’s how X’s happy labor began.
*
A video full of tension!
From occasional bursts of laughter to excellent speaking skills.
Kim Seong-cheol, who was looking at the monitor, let out a sigh.
“I never thought there would be so many talented users. This is a big problem because there are not enough seats, senior. Everyone looks like they have a lot of potential…”
Myung-woo Myung, who was also looking at the monitor, responded.
“Of course, there are many talented people who have sharpened their teeth and prepared. Because this opportunity could truly change your life. “Because other people’s lives depend on it, we need to think more carefully.”
An opportunity to change your life!
That was a reference to ‘Mage Streamer’.
Mage Co., Ltd., which services Fate, has been reborn as the world’s best company in name and reality. Mage, the world’s best company, was recently preparing to service a personal broadcasting platform that is linked in real time with Fate.
“Yes. This is a huge opportunity that cannot be compared to other personal broadcasting platforms. You can receive gold as a gift through broadcasting, and the company even gives you a decent salary…”
I’m jealous.
Seongcheol Kim quenched his appetite.
You can receive gold as a gift from viewers through a personal broadcast and even receive a fixed salary.
Additionally, considering the incentives and additional advertising revenue given based on the number of viewers… it could be said that the streamers selected by Meiji truly receive tremendous privileges. Hana Mage recruited only 30 users as streamers.
“Money is money, but honestly, wouldn’t fame be bigger?”
“Yes. If you are skilled enough to be selected as one of the top 30 players, it will not be that difficult to make money through Fate. “It is certain that even with just the title of Mage Streamer, you will be reborn as a huge name.”
“In that sense, I can’t help but feel sad.”
Seo Myung-woo shrugged his shoulders.
Because I could feel the difference in level in the videos of the applicants.
Most of the main characters in the heart-pounding videos were leaders of large guilds.
Occasionally, there were individual users who went on great adventures, but that wasn’t enough.
“Honestly, you get a lot of vicarious satisfaction just by looking at it, right?”
Hundreds of users bowing their heads to themselves!
Kim Seong-cheol trembled with goosebumps after watching the video sent by War Machine leader Kaimus. Wherever he goes, the strong always bow their heads to Kaimus. Command them and ravage huge boss monsters. Just imagining it made me feel excited.
“Named users who are already famous enough are once again taking up Mage’s streamer position… There may be backlash, but you will have no choice but to admit it the moment you see the video.”
“I agree too.”
Seo Myung-woo also watched videos from other large guilds.
Therefore, I was well aware of the catharsis of their experience.
Suddenly, Seongcheol Kim tilted his head.
“But isn’t it really amazing?”
“what?”
“I mean, Chairman.”
“President? Why suddenly Chairman?”
Seongcheol Kim looked upstairs with curious eyes.
Upstairs was the chairman’s office. The structure of the chairman’s office was visible at a glance through the vast glass window.
“Normally, you don’t touch our work. Whether it was advertising, operation, or planning. But isn’t it amazing that you want to intervene in the election of this Mage Streamer?”
“What else can I say? “Can that even be called intervention?”
“That’s right. Well, I’m just recommending one spot…”
Only one out of 30 Mage streamers.
One position will be selected with the special authority of the chairman.
This was announced by Chairman Dr. Schubert.
Considering his stake in Meiji and his influence within the company, it was an extremely small announcement.
“He is the only user chosen by the chairman. So, you become more curious.”
“You have to be curious. “Who are you thinking of?”
Have you discovered hidden talent in Fate?
The two people who were thinking quickly shook their heads.
“Stop giving random answers. “Let’s just check.”
“Sure. There are over 200,000 videos that came in today alone. “Wow, I’m at a loss.”
Click! The two looked at the monitor and focused on work.
*
Same time.
Meiji Chairman Dr. Schubert was also in the mood for appreciation.
A huge screen with hundreds of monitors connected to it.
There, the image of the only mage streamer he had pinpointed was being played.
Dr. Schubert, with his arms crossed, exclaimed in exclamation.
“More than anything, you are doing your best to gain the trust of NPCs. Unlike users, they will be reliable helpers who will not betray you. “It will be a great help to the cause… Your understanding of Fate is considerable.”
Crackling! He muttered and played a different video this time.
A man moving dazzlingly was played on a vast screen.
From basic battles using a sword and shield to battles using a bow depending on the distance, to complex battles that add anomalous magic!
“Not only is he talented, but he also knows how to fight using his brain without making a big mistake for immediate gain. Is that all it is? Even in small matters, he is thorough and never lets his guard down….”
Crackling! The screen changed once again.
This time, the man’s face was enlarged.
Next to the enlarged man’s face, information about his nickname and job stats appeared.
Only Dr. Schubert in the world has the authority to view this information.
Dr. Schubert looked at the man and smiled happily.
“Of course you have to give hidden gems a chance. And…”
He stared at the man, X, with confident eyes.
“The moment when Fate’s history is changed one by one through your actions… wouldn’t it be too shameful for me to be the only one watching?”
*
A position that all Fate users covet and dream of!
A place where fame and wealth pour in just by wearing the title!
X was selected as such a Mage Streamer through a special recommendation from the Chairman!
There was no way X knew that fact.
puck! Hood!
X, who had been beating up the skeleton, raised his head.
I walked a lot while hunting skeletons.
But isn’t the distance from the mansion rarely narrowing?
“…Do you think something is wrong?”
It’s already been two days since we entered Dead Man’s Beach.
To be honest, I was obsessed with hunting skeletons on the first day.
I left the mansion behind and raised the level I had not been able to raise before.
Thanks to this, I achieved the feat of raising 8 levels in just one day.
“Did I look hateful in some way?”
I must have raised the level that I wasn’t satisfied with. I decided to head towards the mansion today.
As I had decided, I advanced towards the mansion, only hitting the skeletons that were attacking me.
However, as you can see, the results are at a standstill.
puck! X swung his sword and rolled his head.
‘Do I have to meet certain conditions this time too?’
Specific conditions!
Conditions were also required to enter Dead Man’s Beach. I wasn’t sure, but in any case, it was X who reached Dead Man’s Beach after eating a strange spiny fish.
‘If you think the conditions are similar to those back then…’
You definitely need to eat something.
X, who was thinking deeply, suddenly stopped.
Skeletons that constantly rush at you.
And the bones scattered on the floor as they were defeated!
A bone that I don’t even know who it belongs to….
“No, even if you say you’re a weirdo, there’s a degree to it. This is the human duty…”
The moment when X was shocked and hit the charging skeleton.
Tiroling! A notification rang.
[Level has risen!]
X has reached level 90.
And in an instant, the scenery changed.
The dreary beach was nowhere to be found.
A candlestick that brightens the darkness.
There was only a shadow visible behind the candlelight.
An unidentified shadow approached X.
Crack! With the sound of bones crashing.
An eerie voice continued.
“If you’re thinking about eating a bone, you’re thinking just like that bastard. That simple and ignorant way of thinking is so similar that it makes me feel uncomfortable. “I feel like I want to throw away everything, including consideration.”
Phew! X stumbled from the surge of energy.
I felt a tremendous sense of intimidation from the shadow.
Cold sweat glistened on X’s forehead.
‘What is it? How strong do you think you are?’
X’s spirit value exceeds 100 and approaches 200.
Because of this, X does not feel intimidated even when facing quite strong enemies.
But how could I feel this much fear over just a simple threat?
X cautiously opened his mouth.
“Are you Mr. Seo, a weirdo Liglian?”
“Yes.”
The light from the candlestick illuminated the shadow that was inches ahead.
There was a skeleton Liglian wearing a robe.
Liglian crackled and continued speaking.
“With such ridiculous skills, you wouldn’t even be able to have a face-to-face conversation with me. I myself used mana to raise its level. “The only thing that came back to me was gossip?”
Was this all you were seeing and hearing?
X hurriedly opened his mouth.
“sorry. It was so frustrating that I stopped without realizing it…”
“That’s it.” “Get rid of the apples you don’t even care about.”
Pop! Liglien’s chin creaked nervously.
“So why did you come to see me?”
Yes, I had to come to my senses.
Isn’t there a reason why you came here despite the humiliation and pain?
X grabbed his shaking leg. Soon he opened his mouth in a sly voice.
“Is there any other reason? It is to receive the Gourmet King’s recipe from the great and loyal Liglian, who conquered the world with the Gourmet King 300 years ago!”
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
