Episode 153
Shoot!
A ship moving through rolling waves. There were countless lightning strikes in the cloudy sky and the constant sound of thunder in my ears, so this could truly be said to be a man’s voyage.
“When will I ever experience something like this again?”
Shaking.
X was maintaining balance on the deck. The ocean current was pulling the ship towards the end of the world. I felt fortunate that the effort of rowing was saved.
Bloody Voyage!
Kurula’s warriors, who boarded the ship with great vigor, could not avoid seasickness. The warriors of Kurula are born close to the sea, but there are always exceptions.
Elex continued to gag.
“Wow! “Do you think I’ll give in to this fucking weather?”
“Try to keep still when making loud noises.”
“…Thank you, Hunriquel. Wow!!”
Tuk-tuk.
Hunrikel patted Ilex on the back. Another sight that could not be seen from the ground.
X let out a chuckle and immediately started doing his job.
‘I can’t waste this precious time!’
I will build my skills when the opportunity comes!
X’s current Heavenly Cooking mastery was 49.8%. Although heavenly cuisine has been consistently used, it is true that the rate of increase has decreased recently. X smiled meaningfully.
‘There is no need to save because there is an abundance of materials.’
I will try to fill the stomachs of warriors with heavenly cuisine!
X’s cooking, which has now risen to the ranks of Samsung, has also been effective for others.
Although it is not as good as X, who has a heavenly sense of taste, the effect is significant enough to float in the system.
“X, why are you talking so much all of a sudden?”
“Bloody sailing is good, but you have to do it while eating something. What I hate the most is staying still and starving. “Everyone, please hold your bowl properly!”
“…Eh?”
It’s been so long since we set sail that we’re already preparing a meal.
Before the warriors began to question X’s abnormal belly button clock, X retrieved suitable ingredients from the warehouse and activated Heavenly Cooking.
‘It’s an A+ rank quest, so being overconfident is prohibited.’
A+! It was the first time X had experienced difficulty, having cleared various high-difficulty quests, including other beings. Since we did not know what kind of emergency or strong enemy might come, it was necessary to make full use of Kurula’s warriors.
“I think I’m hungry because I smelled it…”
“Would it be better to line up in advance?”
X was planning to buff the warriors with heavenly cuisine. As long as you adapt to the rough environment, you will be able to display your fighting power without any modification or subtraction.
Ssssss!
X’s dazzling hand movements follow the shadows.
Before I knew it, the warriors who had gathered were talking among themselves.
“What is it about this tree branch that makes it shine on its own? If that’s not enough, it’s not that hot, is it? And yet you can boil water…”
“How ignorant! It’s common on the continent. Isn’t that right, X?”
“Haha, I don’t know.”
Unconscious greed!
The warriors’ war of words was due to a tree branch with a pure soul, a holy relic left in the inventory. I discovered it while organizing my inventory for the voyage.
Other than that, the warriors seemed to have a lot of questions.
“Do men really cook on the continent too?”
“Are continental women pretty or Kurula women pretty? No, the face is fine. What is your personality like? “Kurula women have very strong personalities.”
“Wow, this powder has an amazing scent?”
The warriors already recognized X and treated him without hesitation. It seemed that only Vjolaf knew the story about the Gourmet King.
“of course. These days, men who are good at cooking are popular. And isn’t a person’s personality different from person to person, not depending on where they live? These powders are called spices…”
Smooth communication skills developed through personal broadcasting!
Compared to the millions of viewers chatting, the warriors’ barrage of questions was like child’s play.
Bubble bubble! Dishes are starting to be completed one by one.
‘You seem to have a lot of questions.’
The warriors did not stop talking even though their mouths were flowing.
Suddenly, a hesitant Hunrikel came into X’s gaze. Now that I think about it, it was surprising that Hunriquel boarded the ship.
‘Considering his personality, I wouldn’t have tried talking to him now…’
X decided to have a conversation with Hunriquel when he had some free time. Even when we first met, there seemed to be a story behind it, so wouldn’t it be something that might lead to another quest?
All at once!
The food was finished before we could even chat. Gunsmer helped with the distribution.
Samsung’s heavenly dish with a buffing effect! Reactions appeared in various places.
“Isn’t this incredibly delicious?!”
“what? “I suddenly feel warm.”
“what? “The feeling that was bothering you has disappeared?”
A definite morale boosting effect!
Indeed, since it was good for the body and even tasted good, it could be said that the effect went beyond that of a tonic.
Vjolaf was no exception. Although he didn’t show it, it’s natural to be surprised by the taste and the effect.
Vjolaf let out a bitter smile.
“…As expected, what grandpa said was not wrong.”
The taste of the food prepared by the gourmet king was unforgettable.
It was the same with Bjolaf. He felt like he would never forget this seafood stew made by X, the heir to the Gourmet King.
The emotional rift that had passed down from generation to generation was slowly melting away.
*
The voyage has just begun.
Rumble! Bang bang!
“I have no power to be surprised anymore.”
In addition to the rushing lightning, huge mountain-like waves covered the ship.
The closer we get to the end of the world, the worse the weather gets. The warriors stayed in their cabins and killed time.
Of course, despite this chaos, X was running around the deck diligently. Unknown seafood flopping onto the deck! Most of them were people I even saw for the first time.
“Stats are pouring down from the sky!”
Smiling.
Since the heavenly cooking effect was maintained, there was nothing to interfere with it.
X went between the food warehouse and the deck, storing whatever seafood he could find.
Shoot! Even if a tsunami falls overhead.
Flash! Even if there is a thunderstorm.
I couldn’t stop imagining X’s happiness.
“Maybe we can raise it to 60 percent by the end of the voyage?”
As if the heavenly cuisine wasn’t enough, you can even make your own private meal in your spare time!
Thanks to this, I was able to grow my proficiency stat experience evenly.
X, who was busy shooting around the deck, raised his head.
“Anyway, I don’t even know if it’s day or night.”
Is it because we are approaching the end of the world? There was no distinction between day and night. It seems like a day has already passed since we set sail, but the sky was still cloudy. X shrugged his shoulders.
“Well, it’s a good thing for me!”
You can move without stopping. That’s because it’s no different from saying that you can grow without resting.
However, it wasn’t long before X had no choice but to stop his actions.
Srurr.
“…?”
For a moment, I couldn’t help but believe my eyes. A shadow glimpsed in the turbulent sea.
It was like the shadow of a large monster whose size and appearance could not be guessed.
For a moment, X raised an eyebrow in confusion.
“It’s finally starting in earnest.”
A+ rank!
As the end of the world neared, monsters that surpassed the corrupted creatures were appearing.
Slap! X stuffed the seafood he was holding into the warehouse and walked towards the ship’s railing.
‘It’s not an illusion. It’s really huge.’
Srurr.
This guy is still leisurely wandering around the bottom of the ship.
It was clear that the ship was perceived as an enemy. However, even though it must be moving deep in the deep sea, its identity has not yet been identified. But isn’t it possible to wait forever?
“A sure win.”
Slam! X immediately took out the equipment. He held the traveler’s sword and the primordial flint in both hands. The reason I didn’t take out the dark iron shield was simple.
‘That’s not at a level that can be blocked with a shield.’
For a guy of that size, a shield would be useless. Even if you use a shield to block the attack, the ship will be destroyed at the same time.
“We need to catch that monster as quickly as possible.”
Here again, offense was the best defense.
X glared at the shadow leisurely wandering in the deep sea. Even if I looked closely with my heightened senses, I couldn’t make out its features. So there was no need to use bear stance right now. X made a decision.
‘It deals a critical hit the moment it appears.’
It is said that the heavenly cuisine allows it to move freely under the sea, but the sea is its home. There was no need to get along.
‘Even Vjolaf showed a gap when attacking.’
When the enemy is most vulnerable is when they attack.
The moment it jumped out of the sea to devour the ship, X planned to target that moment.
However, the scale of ‘The End of the World’ is.
“…what?”
It easily exceeded X’s expectations.
Wow!
With a loud noise, the huge ship began to rise into the air. The ship wasn’t even dead as it was flying on its own.
“What is this?!”
Slurp! Tentacles that wriggle and emit tremendous force. No, strictly speaking, it wasn’t a tentacle.
The thing that lifted the ship with ease was the legs of a mollusk creature with suction cups the size of a house!
X was shocked for a moment!
A notification rang.
[The legendary monster ‘Kraken’ has appeared!]
[The Kraken has transformed the field!]
[The ocean field is transformed into an alpine field!]
The legendary monster!
Just like legendary animals, there were monsters in Fate that were legendary.
The dragon that can no longer be found in the world has become a legendary monster, and the Cerberus Basilisk and the Kraken that attacked the ship are also one of the legendary monsters.
“crazy.”
The difficulty of this quest is starting to make sense!
Legendary monsters were not given the title legend for nothing. Combat power and influence that easily surpasses boss monsters. Because the Kraken was in the same league as a dragon or phoenix.
X continued.
“It’s enough to transform the field.”
The Kraken is fully revealed!
Its size was equivalent to the entire Kurula region. Looking at the protruding protrusions on the surface, it seemed that the field had not turned into an alpine area for no reason.
It was truly showing off the majesty of a legendary monster.
therefore.
“Hehe.”
I couldn’t help but have expectations!
What items will the legendary monster spit out?
Rare Unique or Legendary?
Greed grows bigger day by day. X couldn’t calm his pounding heart.
Kurula’s warriors soon noticed something unusual and rushed out of the cabin.
“Haha, is this really starting?”
“For a great death!”
“Goes. “You octopus-headed bastard!”
He didn’t feel intimidated at all after seeing the Kraken! Among those brave warriors, it was Bjolaf who had the overwhelming force.
chuck! Vjolaf raised his giant ax to the sky.
“Let us go, great warriors of Kurula!”
Battle begins.
The warriors jumped out of the ship without hesitation. I climbed on the Kraken’s legs and started running toward its body. X couldn’t stay still either.
“Petal Squadron. Wild obsession. “Lord of the forest.”
I used the Samsung Cooking sub-skill, which can greatly increase combat power, and jumped off the ship, following the warriors.
The legendary monster Kraken couldn’t just sit there and watch.
Fuquaaaaaaa!
The Kraken’s legs rose out of the sea.
Kraken’s legs have enough power to easily lift a ship.
Slut! Its legs, swung like whips, were draped over the heads of the warriors on the front lines.
Threatening attack.
‘I guess I’ll have to deal with that.’
Vjolaf reacted quickly. However, there was someone who was moving a little faster than Vjolaf.
Tiroling!
[Fatal blow!]
[Bleeding effect occurs on the Kraken!]
It was X, the descendant of the ‘legend.’
Shashak! X’s sword boldly crossed the Kraken’s leg.
Snip! Then the Kraken’s leg was cut off like an octopus.
“!”
X and Vjolaf’s eyes met. In a split second, X clearly declared.
“You have to make the calculations in advance, right? “The person with the highest contribution gets all the loot. Then, I’ll assume you don’t have any complaints and let’s go first!”
I will monopolize the legendary monster Kraken!
X swallowed a sinister smile and cheerfully ran out.
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
