Solo Eating to Overpowered Chapter 100

Episode 100:

A furnace burning in the dark.

Danwoo looked up at Ulrik, who was holding his head in pain.

“I never thought Master would have such a past….”

Ulrik’s past!

In the past, Ulrik was a man who valued his face. In other words, he was dressed like a bandit to match his face. Sioras’ paper crane fluttered.

-Since you liked beating things up, I thought that becoming a blacksmith, pounding iron, might be your calling. Of course, you did not break your stubbornness despite my recommendation, but…

“Okay, that’s enough. “Please stop talking about old times.”

Ulric muttered bluntly, his face burning with shame.

I didn’t seem to feel bad. If it was something I really didn’t want to hear, I would have walked away a long time ago.

However, Ulrik had been drinking and becoming Sioras’ companion since a while ago.

Weakness identified!

Ulrich suddenly spoke to X, who was hiding his sinister intentions.

“I’m sorry. If I had known that you were Sir Sioras’ disciple, I wouldn’t have put you through this hard time. As you can see, I don’t have a good personality…”

“Oh, you don’t have to say that. “Please eat more than that.”

Sigh. X held out a golden brown skewer.

Skewers made with volcanic pine mushrooms and firetail eel that Ulrik will love!

In addition, a special sauce was added to double the taste and aroma. Sioras’ voice was heard.

-Hehe, my mouth is watering just looking at it.

“Master, I will definitely make it for you the next time we meet.”

-I’m looking forward to it.

“Hehe, thank you.”

Ulrik smiled sheepishly and accepted the skewer.

Gulp! Ulrich’s pupils dilated as if they were going to pop out after biting into the skewer.

“…delicious! “I’ve never tasted anything like this in my life!”

Yeah, that’s enough.

X grinned. I felt rewarded for my hard work in the hot volcano.

The night deepened like that. The happy reunion seems to have been so enjoyable that it even changed Ulrich’s life pattern.

Sioras spoke first.

-Then please take care of me, Ulrich. X I will contact you again soon!

“Do not worry. It was nice to meet you. “Mr. Sioras.”

“Go in, Master!”

“Hehe, what are you doing?”

Soon, the paper cranes began to fly cutely toward the sky.

Danwoo smiled heartily, perhaps because he thought it was cute. Ulrik began to clean up the mess around him.

“I will clean it up.”

“It’s okay. “As the owner, it’s right for me to clean it up.”

“no. “Golden hands are not for times like that.”

Although he received help through Sioras’ connections, in the end it was Ulric who made the equipment.

If you show him sincerity, wouldn’t he make you at least a little bit of an outstanding luxury product, even if it means putting in a lot of effort? Ulric asked, laughing at X’s flattery.

“Okay then, let’s hear what you need. “I think you are planning to make pure rock iron equipment, given that you brought a large amount of rock iron.”

“You saw it correctly. Helmet armor shoes made of pure dark iron. And we need a shield.”

“Helmet armor shoes. And since it’s a shield… there will be no shortage of dark iron.”

Ulrik is seriously worried. Ulrik, who was thinking about equipment while touching his rough beard, opened his mouth. It seemed like something had occurred to me.

“What do you plan to use the teeth and skin of the great beast?”

Slayer’s fangs and 10,000-year-old sea snake skin.

In fact, X couldn’t decide where to use the two.

The Slayer’s Fang, which increases attack power by a percentage, could be attached to any equipment, but the 10,000-year sea snake skin is different.

‘I was originally planning to sell it…’

A 10,000-year sea snake skin that reduces mana consumption.

When X learned it, it consumed almost no mana.

That’s why I tried to sell it at an auction house for a high price. However, not only did his skill and usability increase with the dancing stem, but he also learned a large-scale magic called Sea God’s Judgment.

I felt like I could use it effectively now.

“I want to use both materials, but I don’t have any sense in terms of production, so I don’t know what to make. So, I will leave it entirely to Ulrich.”

Isn’t he the best blacksmith in the human world, as declared by Sioras? There was a certain belief in X’s request. Those words must have been like high praise to the proud Ulrik.

Ulrich nodded with a proud face.

“I will do my best to repay that trust.”

“Please!”

Equipment production has finally begun!

Now all I had to do was wait for completion.

Kangkang! The sound of the hammer continued.

For some reason, Ulrich’s gentle voice was heard.

“Feel so good. Just keep doing it like you do now.”

Ulrik was busy making X’s dark iron equipment with Danwoo.

Of course, Danwoo plays a supporting role in helping Ulrich. But with that alone, Danwoo’s skill level was skyrocketing noticeably.

‘Is this really the best mineral…!’

A precious experience that cannot be replaced by anything!

Although Danwoo was thrilled, he did not let go of his concentration.

It wasn’t someone else’s, it was X’s equipment. Danwoo wanted to join forces with his teacher to create an irreplaceable luxury product for X.

At that time, X was climbing a tree.

‘I never thought they would lay eggs in a place like this.’

The vegetation of a giant volcano is almost infinite! To X, the volcano was like a treasure island. It was an X that properly resolved the regrets of the past in the primeval forest.

The colorful eggs were the eggs of the fireweed bird.

‘I’m sorry, but I can’t help it. ‘I have to make a living too.’

Thinking about the cute face of the fireweed bird, I felt sorry, but what could I do? New food ingredients have infinite possibilities.

At the top, X caught his breath.

“Let’s see, that side is a place that is already known… and it’s no different.”

X planned to hunt around the volcano until the equipment was completed. The giant volcano was a popular hunting ground for high-level users.

The majority of hunting grounds are already filled with regular users as well as users from large guilds.

‘Well, I’m not expecting experience.’

To be honest, the level didn’t really mean anything to X. It’s not that it doesn’t have any meaning, but it’s less important than other users.

That’s because X had overwhelming stats!

Other users had to efficiently utilize the bonus stats given each time they leveled up. However, when X puts anything in his mouth, his stats increase.

“I think we should focus on finding new ingredients.”

For X, finding ingredients is no different from hunting!

Therefore, rather than leveling up, X decided to find as many different ingredients as possible in the volcano.

Shush! X stirred the volcano like it was his home.

‘Oh, it stings a bit because of the poison, but it’s delicious, right?’

Around the time when X was savoring the poisonous fruit.

Tuk. I felt something caught at my feet. X checked his feet and was startled.

“What is this?”

Twenty twenty. Leaves that move and wrap around your ankles!

The red flower at the end was impressive. At first I thought it was a monster.

However, when I touched the stem with my foot, there was no response. It was just winding up the leaves.

“…is it a flower?”

X squatted down and looked at the leaves. For a flower blooming in a volcano, he was a plain guy.

It just looked like a commonly seen wild flower. However, X’s sense of taste after experiencing numerous ingredients was bitter.

‘I don’t think it’s an ordinary flower?’

Moreover, I could feel something stirring in the ground where it was buried. An energy so subtle that it is normally undetectable. The reason I was able to feel that energy was thanks to my increased affinity for the fire attribute through heavenly cooking.

What is the need to worry about?

X immediately started digging.

“!”

I hadn’t even dug very far when something touched my fingertips. Big and thick. X dug into the ground with even more enthusiasm due to the unusual feel. What finally appeared was a huge root the size of a basketball!

“…no way?”

Suddenly Danwoo’s words passed through my mind.

-Because it’s the teacher’s favorite food. First of all, Master really enjoys eating volcanic pine mushrooms. And sometimes, go to the lake to catch firetail eels… and when you’re feeling really good, drink some of the volcanic deodeok wine hidden in the box! The day after drinking volcano deodeokju, you have so much energy that you smelt all night long.

Volcano deodeok!

It is similar to wild ginseng, which is difficult to find even in vast volcanoes.

X clearly remembered the large bottle in Ulrich’s hand last night.

‘same.’

The appearance of the volcanic deodeok contained in the bottle and the root discovered just now were identical.

Even the flowers at the end of the stem. X confirmed the root information.

“…Volcano deodeok.”

It’s also 100-year-old volcanic deodeok! Judging from its size and sense of energy, it seemed like a higher-quality product than the one Ulrich cherished. The corners of X’s mouth turned up with a grin.

“I found this amazing bribe.”

A bribe to give wings to a tiger!

It is said that the day after drinking volcanic deodeokju, Ulrich smelts it all night long.

So what would happen if you made them drink deodeokju every day?

“I guess my equipment will be made quickly.”

There was nothing to worry about.

X immediately began producing volcanic deodeokju.

“Hehe, I can feel it! “This is definitely a masterpiece!”

Ulrik’s husky voice.

Ulrich was in the midst of refining his drinking. Volcanic deodeokju made by X! Is it because of the power of the refreshing but 100-year-old volcanic deodeok? My body did not get tired.

“I think this is the first time I’ve seen a teacher so excited.”

“is it so? Anyway, I’m glad you look good.”

Even Danwoo, his best disciple, sees Ulrik for the first time!

X replied as he cleaned the volcanic deodeok. Because the size of the volcanic deodeok was so large that it could not fit into most bottles, a certain portion of it was cut off.

X was cleaning the cut part. Although it was only a portion, the amount was significant and could be cooked in a variety of ways. Moreover, the basic effects were also excellent.

‘Because it was a rare grade ingredient.’

Volcanic deodeok was so effective that just eating it raw increased maximum vitality by 1,000 points and strength by 30 points. Ulrich looked towards X and raised his glass.

“Thank you for the precious drink, X! “I will definitely repay you.”

Of course, the effect as a bribe was amazing.

Ulrich said he would have to wait 15 days for the equipment to be completed, but at this rate, it seemed like a week would be enough.

X organized the schedule in his head.

‘As soon as the equipment is completed, we must depart for the Desert of Oblivion.’

Ancient Kingdom chain quest!

In order to dig up information, one had to enter the home base of another being from the Desert of Oblivion.

It seemed like it would be best to hurry up as much as possible, as there was no telling where the base might be hiding.

‘In order to do that, I’ll have to take care of the things I put off before the equipment is completed.’

Once the Ancient Kingdom quest begins, you won’t have time to worry about anything else other than eating and sleeping.

Thanks to this,

‘You said it was Executive Director Min Seok-ho, right?’
