The Cook of a Perished World - Chapter 159

Episode 159: Seal (2)

“Isn’t that too much of an outcast? “Our unit doesn’t have that kind of atmosphere.”

“Tsk… that’s ridiculous.”

Did what I said sound quite funny?

Seo-hwan giggles while holding on to his mask.

“Okay… I guess you want to somehow teach him martial arts.”

“hmm. “If necessary, I plan to bring a tank and destroy that Bidong thing.”

“Tank? I don’t know what it is. It would be impossible to get in from the outside. Just…”

“Just?”

He seemed a little hesitant.

The guy soon opens his mouth.

“There is no way.”

“…!”

Not even 10 minutes have passed since I said there was no way.

You suddenly change your words.

“You bastard. “Did you lie earlier?”

“It’s not a lie. “There is a way, but it is a way that is impossible for me to solve.”

“?”

“…I have no way to open that secret cave. But for others.”

Others?

“I might know a way to open the secret cavity.”

* * *

Others.

Of all the beings I met inside this gate, other than Seohwan, I remember them.

“You mean the man who is your teacher? “I would have to risk my life to see his face.”

Although I haven’t seen it in person.

A terrifying purple energy in the temple at the top of that mountain.

The owner comes to mind.

“no. Of course, Master is one of them. “There are many people who would know how to open the secret chamber without having to go to him.”

Fortunately, it doesn’t seem like he’s referring to the teacher.

“I am at the bottom of this Tianshan Gate, but there are people in high positions.”

“Then what? What are you hesitating about? “Guide them right away!”

“….”

“?”

Even though I encouraged him to get up and move.

The guy squirms as if he’s hesitant.

ah.

Come to think of it.

‘This guy… he asked me not to touch other people, right?’

Seo Hwan is the last member of the Cheonsan Order.

Those high-ranking people may know the method.

However, since they are high-ranking officials, there is a high probability that they will be stronger than Seohwan.

And yet you brought up the topic of asking me not to touch you.

In other words…

“Those high-ranking noblemen. “There must be something wrong.”

“…!”

In those words.

Seohwan looked at me with anxious eyes.

“…Shit. “I made a mistake.”

“Why don’t you tell me more about your mistakes?”

“…It means that they may know the way. “I never told you I would guide them.”

What is this?

I’m sure there’s something wrong.

“no way. “Don’t do that.”

“Didn’t you make a promise before you came here? “I won’t lay a hand on them!”

“Who touched it? “I just want to see your face once.”

“Can not be done!”

Seohwan reacted particularly violently to my words.

“They are in a situation where they can’t move anyway. “I can’t even help you!”

“I don’t know why I can’t move. Do you know anything? “Maybe if I look, I’ll find some answers?”

“Haha… How can I trust you?”

Hmm.

By just telling you about Gwangil.

I think Seohwan has developed a somewhat good image for me.

‘I guess that’s why I made a mistake with my words.’

But at best, it’s only a ‘slightly good image’.

This guy is still being threatened with my power.

I understand that you don’t trust me easily.

“If you really want to see them…”

then.

Seohwan said those words with a nervous expression.

“Take the ban and go.”

“taboo?”

He reaches out and places his hand on my shoulder.

[A prohibition is presented.]

A message window appeared.

[Prohibition]

[Prohibited subject – Shin Young-jun and Seo-hwan]

[Condition (Shin Young-jun) – Do not commit any hostile acts toward the disciples within the Tianshan Gate.]

[Condition (Seo-hwan) – Guide Shin Young-jun to the Tianshan Gate disciples]

[Opponents If you do not fulfill the specific conditions suggested by.]

[A large penalty is imposed.]

[Penalty – 50% of all stats disappear.]

[Exception – If the disciple of Tianshan Gate commits a hostile act first. Only those who committed hostile acts will not be penalized for violating the conditions.]

[Caution!]

[If you accept the ban, no one can lift the ban until one year has passed.]

[Do you want to accept it?]

It is a ban. .

The ban is even said to last for at least one year.

“If you accept this prohibition, I will recognize you and take you to them.”

The content is quite brutal.

If you break it, 50% of all stats will evaporate.

This is a particularly fatal part for someone like me who has nothing but stats.

“Of course I will refuse. “There is no reason to visit them even after receiving such a ban.”

“I accept.”

“Give up about that giant… what?”

[The prohibition has been established!]

[Once the prohibition has been established, it can never be broken even by mutual agreement!]

“Are you serious!”

Let me accept the ban lightly.

Seohwan is shocked and shocked.

“They can’t move anyway. I told you! “It won’t help you!”

“Isn’t that something you have to go to find out?”

“I made it clear that there would be no point in your going…!”

“That’s my decision.”

According to this guy.

In order for Gwangil to gain martial arts that can control his madness.

In the end, those people who can’t move need help.

Although the penalty for prohibition is significant.

“If I had been scared about something like that, I would have died a long time ago.”

“…!”

If there is a way to become stronger, take some risk.

Isn’t it because we have lived that way that we are still alive?

* * *

“I can’t believe it… You so casually accept the ban on someone else’s business, not your own.”

“If it’s my unit’s work, it’s no different from my own. “Is there anything I can’t offer up?”

actually.

The main point of the ban was that it was not hostile to them.

There is no reason to be hostile towards these guys in the first place.

‘Maybe it’s some kind of monster… or something.’

At least so far, these guys haven’t attacked humans.

Even Ariel, who went so far as to kill members of my unit, is being used out of necessity.

No matter how much it is said to be from another world.

There is no reason to be hostile to a guy who has never harmed his unit members.

Because he’s also a very useful guy.

“Whew… I don’t know if this is the right thing to do.”

After entering the gate.

Seohwan only allowed them to roam around a certain area of the palace.

“It’s over there.”

Where he is pointing now.

It was in a realm beyond that.

An area where Seohwan was prohibited from accessing.

I walked towards the top of the mountain.

There was a large pavilion built there.

Let’s go inside and follow Seohwan’s instructions.

‘…!’

One room there.

More than ten prisoners were seen lying down.

“…Are you sleeping?”

“I do not know either.”

Seohwan’s blunt attitude.

I wonder if he was upset because he guided me to these people.

I asked again, just in case.

“Don’t you think you know something at least vaguely? Let me just say this first. I really have no intention of opposing you, do I? “If you know something, you can help.”

“…It’s embarrassing, but it’s not a lie. “I really don’t know.”

“no. Does that make sense?”

“…there is a reason.”

Seohwan sighs.

He put his hand on the mask he was wearing on his face.

Pop.

took off the mask

What’s inside that mask.

“A group of demons attacked my hometown… The final battle against them took place on this heavenly mountain.”

A youthful face, different from the atmosphere I’ve seen so far.

Ears that resemble those of a rat.

and.

“I was weak in that battle and could not hold out for long and collapsed.”

“….”

Right across the middle of that face.

It was a huge wound.

‘I didn’t wear the mask for no reason.’

It must have been quite a big wound.

His nose was almost cut in two, and one of his eyes was cut all the way to the eyeball, making him look like he had completely lost his eyesight.

Rather, it was a wound so big that it was a wonder how he survived.

Compared to his still young face, the wound looked even more hideous.

“After being attacked by a demonic beast, I lost consciousness. “As you can see after I wake up.”

“The world was destroyed.”

“okay. “Everyone except me has been like that since then.”

It’s always been like that?

These people are lying down as if they are asleep.

This gate must have been there since the day of Doomsday.

“Then how about meals and nutritional supplements…”

“Why did you teach martial arts to that bald man? “What do you think?”

“ah.”

Come to think of it.

This guy teaches monk Seungju martial arts in return.

I decided to receive the monster’s body.

“That bald guy was far from qualified to be taught my martial arts. But… I had no choice either.”

“….”

The monk Seungju I met was a pretty nice person.

That’s the result of training this guy’s mind through martial arts.

Before that, to put it simply, I was on a roll.

I think it must have been quite frustrating for Seohwan to have to choose such a person.

“After I signed a contract with him, I roughly cooked the corpses of the demonic beasts and fed him.”

“cook?”

“hmm. It is one of the long-standing traditions of our Tianshan Gate. “The youngest is in charge of all the cooking…”

“What kind of evil habit is that?”

“Thanks to this, I am confident that I know how to cook basic dishes. “It’s at a basic level, though.”

This isn’t some kind of army.

I never thought such a bad habit would exist.

ah.

Actually, I am a soldier.

“Is it so strange that I made food?”

“It’s not like that. “Because I’m a chef.”

“…chef? “You’re Suksoo?”

Come to think of it.

I haven’t explained my job yet.

“Even if it’s a different world, it’s true. Is it normal for a master to have this much power…? No, it’s a sergeant who treats Cheonsalseong as a subordinate. “If it were our world, it’s a topic that even a third-rate storyteller on the street wouldn’t cover.”

“Hmm.”

anyway.

It seems that the only people who eat monsters and become monsters are humans who are not resistant to magic.

I guess these guys have been surviving on the corpses of monsters like that.

“I’ll have to take a look first.”

“…hmm. “It doesn’t matter since we have entered into a ban.”

Let’s approach the nearby man to check his condition.

Seo-hwan looks at me with disbelief.

“Didn’t you say you were Suksoo?”

“for now.”

“I wonder what meaning it would have for Suksu, who is not even a doctor, to check on the sick.”

oh my god.

Now people even look down on guys from other worlds as chefs.

Although it was a little absurd.

There was no sign of any particular attempt to stop my actions.

I slowly approach and take a look at the condition of the man in front of me.

‘It’s incredibly big.’

Reminds me of Gwangil.

No, a man of enormous size who seemed even bigger than that.

There was so much hair on my whole body that it felt like a burden.

In contrast to his scary appearance, he had cute cat-like ears on his head.

The appearance is so unbalanced that it’s almost ridiculous.

‘Tiger Man?’

[Differentiation of food ingredients (enhanced)]

[Primates – Animal species – Cats – Tigers]

[Cheonho]

“Cheonho is the death penalty. “He was the great brother of our Tian Shanmen… and he was like a father to me.”

Seohwan’s eyes looking down at him were unusual.

It probably means that he is a truly precious person.

‘There are no abnormalities?’

First of all, I looked into it by identifying food ingredients.

Of course, contrary to the expectation that he was suffering from some abnormal condition.

There were no abnormalities of any kind.

however.

“uh?”

“What? Did you really find out something?”

To conclude, there were no abnormalities.

but.

There is one thing more curious than that.

[Sealing…]

[Target risk level – 9↑]

[Time remaining until unsealing – 235928309….]

“What is this?”

A seal?
