Solo Eating to Overpowered - Chapter 99

Episode 99

“…Now wait a minute. Mr. X, what on earth is this?”

Danwoo couldn’t help but be shocked. It is a dark place that is difficult for ordinary people to even see, even if they spend their entire lives.

But that dark iron was gushing out of X’s inventory like a fountain.

X answered with a grin.

“wait a minute. “There’s still more left.”

It is not a mixture of iron ore or black stones that are similar in color.

Rock metal piled up to your own height using only pure rock metal! Danwoo, facing the rock tower in front of him, could not easily continue speaking.

“Huh…”

But on the contrary, there was not even the slightest change in Master Ulrik’s face. Ulric opened his mouth to X, who had taken out the rock iron.

“Is this all?”

“no. “There are still some left.”

At Ulrich’s awkward reaction, X hurriedly placed the remaining material items on the rock iron.

Slayer’s Fang and Ten Thousand Years Old Sea Snake Skin are both unique and rare materials. It was only then that X noticed Ulrich’s thoughts.

‘…is this still not enough?’

That’s ridiculously high!

The ingredients of X could be called first-class among first-class.

To put it bluntly, if you put these materials on the auction house, you will get enough gold to buy a decent building.

However, Ulrik was a formidable blacksmith.

Eat. Ulik snorted.

“It was my fault for expecting you to make a fuss. “Did you come to me with nothing but rock iron and similar materials, not the skin of an earthen dragon or the teeth of an imoogi?”

It’s only dark season! Ulrik, who has no hesitation in belittling Armcheol, which other blacksmiths are anxious to handle. His remarks were enough to wake Danwoo from his daze.

“Master Shi! This all happened because there were not enough disciples. However, I thought it would be a shame as a disciple who inherited the master’s skills to turn away a guest who came to see me.”

“It’s okay, I don’t want to hear it.”

bang! Ulrik closed the door coldly. Danwoo was restless. It was shameful to say anything to X, who came all the way here, believing only what he said.

“Hehehe.”

“?”

One of the parties involved, X, was laughing. Laughs of joy, not laughs from the shock of rejection!

After completing his judgment, the corners of X’s mouth did not come down easily.

‘I never thought they would make it easy from the beginning.’

Who are the people called blacksmiths?

Stubborn people who hammer iron for days to make a piece of equipment, and even if they don’t like the piece even just a little, they melt it down without any hesitation!

If he had risen to the top among those blacksmiths, his pride and stubbornness would be indescribable.

Moreover, ever since he heard that X was living in the volcano solely for his blacksmith work, he had prepared himself to be rejected hundreds of times.

The only thing I was worried about was the blacksmith’s ability.

‘I was worried that they would be able to make proper rock metal equipment, but…’

If he had a confident attitude that did not even pay attention to rock metal, X was actually a welcome sight. Danwoo cautiously asked X, who was constantly smiling.

“…Hey, Mr. X, are you okay?”

“Yes, it’s okay. “I’m fine.”

“Master, your personality is so unpredictable. I’m sorry, so what should I do?…”

Dan-woo lowered his head, as if he was out of respect. Tuk-tuk. X lightly tapped Danwoo on the shoulder. He spoke to Danwoo, who was startled.

“I said it’s okay, so it’s just the beginning.”

“…is it the beginning?”

“Anyway, Master, is there a food you like? Let’s see, since you tend to go to bed early, you’ll probably wake up early… I guess I’ll have to move quickly to prepare breakfast.”

You won’t be able to survive without changing your mind.

It was X with a sinister smile.

*

From the next morning,

The amazing smell wafting through the hot volcanic air! Ulrich’s eyebrows twitched as he melted iron in the furnace.

“….”

No matter how hard I tried to look away, I couldn’t. This is X, who cooks his favorite volcanic pine mushrooms with dazzling skill.

You may or may not know the burning inside of such a teacher.

The only disciple was busy eating without paying attention.

“…X, I’m anxious.”

“why?”

“I can’t believe I get to eat X’s food over and over again. After such great luck, misfortune is sure to come! Of course, that doesn’t mean I won’t eat it, but…”

Yum yum. I never thought the day would come when I would find my one and only disciple eating so disgusting!

Ulrik cleared his throat a few times and turned his head. Kangkang! I thought about the arduous days of my past while pounding the hot iron.

‘The more you endure, the stronger you become.’

Nothing like mushrooms can break my stubbornness.

Feeling like his thigh was being pinched, Ulrik desperately turned away from X. Tsk tsk x x muttered his mouth and glanced at Ulik.

‘I guess it won’t be hard to endure, right?’

Ulrich Bull stubbornness did not have this bull stubbornness either.

The scent of volcanic pine mushrooms is excellent even for X, who has worked with numerous ingredients.

Such volcanic pine mushrooms are able to hold on even though they are helpless! X had a premonition that this cold war would prolong.

‘I have no choice but to cook something even more amazing for dinner!’

It was an X who was practicing cooking properly, unintentionally.

*

Another three days passed like that.

X was fishing in a well that was hard to find in the volcano. The purpose was to catch firetail eels, which Ulrich loves as much as volcanic pine mushrooms.

X muttered.

“No, there’s no point in holding it in until you grit your teeth, right?”

Is this the pride of a blacksmith?

Ulrik had not yet succumbed to Ex’s cooking. He was a man as persistent as Liglian. As I was quietly looking at the fishing line, I started to get worried.

“If you keep going like this and don’t get over it until the end….”

There is nothing to be gained from suffering. It could be said to be the worst-case scenario.

“done. “It’s unfair.”

Shaking my head. X decided to give up his ominous thoughts. Still, thanks to Ulrik, who is very picky, I put a lot of effort into cooking.

Thanks to this, I felt like my cooking skills improved. That time when X was calming his mind and looking at the surface of the water.

Something fell on the surface of the water, causing ripples.

“what?”

X’s eyes narrowed. The thing that fell on the water was a white paper crane. Isn’t that paper crane slowly cutting across the water and coming towards us?

‘Is it tracking? No, I don’t feel that tracking magic energy?’

Just as all sorts of speculations were coming to mind, I heard a familiar voice.

-How have you been?

“Master Shi?”

Great Sage Sioras! It was his voice that came from the paper crane. The paper crane was created by Sioras using magic. X said with a smile on his face.

“Of course I was doing well. The Master was worried because there was no news and no way to contact him. “How have you been?”

-haha. It’s been a while since I had a busy daily life.

X and Sioras shared stories that had been delayed.

Sioras said that he left the Arba Continent and wandered around the Fate World, touring the rune stones he had discovered. At the same time, it was said that contaminated rune stones were discovered and rune stone purification work began.

“Runestone purification? “Do you know how?”

Runestone purification!

It was one of the pieces of information that X needed.

For the sake of the lord’s dream and for the suffering Jaul. It was X who had to purify the runestone of Frost Storm Cliff. However, I was still distraught because I did not know anything about the rune stone and there was no information revealed.

-Of course, I was thinking that I would have to teach you the method someday, but… Now that I hear your story, I have to hurry up and teach you how to purify the rune stone.

“A true teacher who is truly different from anyone else!”

-What does that mean?

“it’s nothing. “I’m a little tired because something happened…”

Sioras and Ulrik.

Although they were both teachers with one student, they were very different. Unlike Ulrik, who hates the sight of Danwoo eating and makes him run errands for her, Sioras is very kind!

Moreover, Sioras did not miss X’s gloomy appearance. Sioras asked again.

-Looking at your face, it looks like you’re in trouble. X: You are the first disciple I took on. They are also colleagues who share a heavy burden. If I can help, I want to do my best.

“Master…!”

I was already starting to worry about the future.

It was natural for X to be moved by Sioras’ words. X confessed how he obtained the rock iron and that he plans to make new equipment with the rock iron, but that it is not easy to find a blacksmith who can handle rock iron.

Sioras, who was listening, seemed to agree.

-okay. Among humans, it is rare to find a blacksmith who can perfectly handle rock iron. But that doesn’t mean we can’t take you to the land of the dwarves….

The land of the dwarves? Does that even exist in Fate?

The moment X was shocked, Sioras spoke.

-Oh, I know a blacksmith with good skills. Even if it is not enough for the dwarven craftsmen, there will be no one among humans who can match his skill and experience. The ability to handle dark iron is ridiculous!

“Do you know someone like that?”

So then, is there no need to cling to Ulrich the Ox-Stubborn anymore? Jump up! X took the fishing rod and stood up. I wanted to go see that blacksmith. However, the name that came out of Sioras’ mouth was…

-Ulik. I don’t know about his personality, but he is a man whose skills are outstanding.

“…There is no coincidence like this.”

*

X returned to Ulrik’s thatched hut with a paper crane. Sioras, who heard the whole story from X, stepped forward and said that he would be the solution!

‘I believe. ‘I trust you, Master.’

Sioras seemed to have a past connection with Ulrik. Anyway, from X’s perspective, the best move was Sioras. Danwoo looked at X who had returned and gave him an earnest look.

Please save me.

“Where are you looking?”

“Hey, sorry!”

However, X, avoiding Danwoo’s gaze, immediately stood behind Ulrik.

Ulrich didn’t even notice X when he saw him. At that moment, Sioras opened his mouth.

-Ulik. How much is this?

“…?!”

Crash! Ulrich is surprised, even flipping over the chair he was sitting on. He seemed quite surprised by Sioras’ voice.

It was Danwoo’s first time seeing Ulrich like this. Ulrich looked back and forth between X and the paper crane and stuttered.

“Seriously, Sir Sioras?”

-Yes, let’s fly! That impression still remains.

“Oh no. How on earth did this happen? How on earth did Sioras come here… Are you saying this man was related to Sioras?”

-That’s right. This is my one and only handmade cock.

“omg.”

Ulrich’s face turned white in an instant. X couldn’t help but wonder.

What on earth happened with Sioras that made him so stuck? Sioras continued speaking happily.

-haha. It looks like you have taken on a disciple too. It makes me happy to see it. But when I heard the story from X… it seems he still has the same stubbornness.

“…that thing.”

-Let me see. Come to think of it, you’ve been like that since we first met. Haha, I still remember it clearly. He frowned heavily and didn’t say a word…

“…I’ll make yam. “I’m going to make it!”

Ulrik’s stubbornness was horribly broken when Sioras brought up a story about the past. What kind of past history was there that broke that stubborn stubbornness? X, who was watching, opened his mouth.

“Hmm, something that cannot be left out of old stories is a delicious dinner. I will prepare it soon. “I have amazing alcohol, so please take your time and talk.”

Even if you take out Ulrik, I will take care of your weaknesses that you can’t beat!

X, who was thinking about this, began to move slyly.

Munchkin that I eat all by myself
