“How dare you take my jokbal……!”
Minhyuk almost flew in a rage but he soon realized that the jokbal in front of Kongie was not his jokbal.
‘What’s this…?’
Apparently, the same jokbal set was placed in front of Kongie.
‘Ah, maybe it’s that!’
If the owner eats delicious food, then it will grow up.
In other words, it meant that whatever delicious food he ate would also be reflected and be in front of Kongie.
“Oink, oink, oink!”
[Kongie is happy.]
Minhyuk watched Kongie eat deliciously as he focused on his jokbal again.
He dipped a piece of jokbal in ssamjang and placed it on top of a lettuce together with some garlic, spicy pepper and kimchi before wrapping it together and placing it in his mouth.
Crunch, crunch━
The crunching sounds were so fantastic. Every time he chew he could feel the crunchy lettuce and kimchi. At the end of each bite, the light taste of jokbal and the savory ssamjang would mix together and form great harmony.
As Minhyuk chewed on his wrap, he picked the bowl of noodles up and mixed it thoroughly.
“Sluuuuuuurp!”
The spicy and sour tray noodles could easily wash away the greasy taste of the jokbal.
“Chew, chew, delicious!”
Minhyuk smiled pleasantly as he savored the after taste of the food.
When he turned around to look at Kongie… He saw Kongie imitating the pose of someone holding a cup with its small paws. Then, it gulped as if it was drinking something refreshing and made a ‘Kyaa!’ expression.
“Ah. That’s right, good!”
Minhyuk hurriedly pulled out a cola from his inventory and he poured some over a cup filled with ice.
Since Kongie could also share what its owner eats, a cola appeared in front of it. Then it suddenly stopped.
‘What’s this? How does Kongie know what a cola is?’
What a strange little piggy.
Then, Minhyuk and Kongie picked their cups up. Kongie suddenly…
Clink!
“Oink!”
“Cheers!”
Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp━
“Kyaa!”
Balzarc mumbled to himself when he saw what the two of them were doing.
“Is this a baby pig together with its daddy pig……?”
Once Minhyuk finished eating all of the jokbal in God’s Legacy Dish, a series of notifications rang in his head.
[You have eaten God’s First Legacy Dish, the Jokbal Set.]
[You have received an invincible body. Your body will now be able to resist all types of poisons and abnormal conditions and status.]
[You have gained 30 reputation points.]
[You can now level up Food God’s Cooking Skill.]
[Food God’s Cooking Skill has leveled up.]
[You can now level up Ingredient Tracking.]
[Ingredient Tracking has leveled up.]
[You have learned the skill: The Joy of Eating Together.]
[The Class Quest: To Have a Feast with Other People has been created.]
‘As expected……!’
Minhyuk’s predictions had been correct. His skills related to the Food God class were usually impossible to level up!
He quickly checked the information of the skills.
(Food God’s Cooking Skill)
Passive Skill
Level: 2
Effects:
━ You can apply a buff that is much more outstanding than a craftsman’s buff.
━ The storage and preservation times will be much longer compared to a craftsman’s work.
━ The amount of buff will exceed that of a craftsman’s buff.
━ You can confirm and check the recipe of the dish that another person wants.
Minhyuk’s mind went blank, the only thing that he thought of was ‘Eh?’. He was expecting an effect that would make the food more delicious but he got an effect that would allow him to check the recipe of a dish that another person would want. He clicked on the detailed description as he pondered over it deeply.
[If you use Food God’s Cooking Skill to recreate and make the dish from the recipe of the dish the other person desires, your chances of achieving a higher grade of dish will be increased to x2.]
It was literally making a dish from the recipe acquired from a dish that another person wanted to eat.
‘I’m already busy eating as it is though?!’
Then, he checked the Ingredient Tracking Skill.
(Ingredient Tracking)
Passive Skill
Level: 2
Penalty on Use: You will be unable to use True Worth of Food for the day.
Effects:
━ You can choose what kind of effect and what kind of dish the ingredient needed to have. Once the skill takes effect, the system will search the ingredient with the needed effect within a 10-km radius. It will also propose recipes according to the effect + ingredients + type of cooking. It will also identify and suggest alternative ingredients.
━ It can only be used 5 times.
━ Increase in uses can only be acquired after skill has leveled up.
━ Current number of uses: 5 / 5
The changes in the Ingredient Tracking Skill was quite satisfactory. The initial 1-km radius search had become a 10-km radius. In addition, the previous 3 uses had increased to 5 uses and the number of uses had also been reset.
‘If I knew that this would happen, I should have used my last chance!’
Minhyuk blamed himself for being a bit dull in regards to this and at the same time he was also in a bit of an awe when he saw the new skill that he had acquired.
‘Food God-nim, why are you so mean!’
How can you give me such a skill? I don’t like the name of this skill.
He checked the details of his newly acquired skill with a frown on his face.
(The Joy of Eating Together)
Passive Skill
Level: None
Effects: Whenever you cook for someone else, the dish with the same taste and flavor would appear in front of the Food God.
“Oh……”
Minhyuk promptly ate the bad words and curses that he thought about the Food God.
For example, if he made a dish with an excellent buff even though he wanted to eat it, it would be the others that would benefit from it, right? Something like this was unthinkable for Minhyuk. However, even if he cooked for others, he would still be able to taste the same dishes even though he wouldn’t be able to receive the buff.
‘I suddenly feel like the Food God has always been thinking about me and my well-being. Thank you, Food God-nim!”
Minhyuk had actually failed to use his buffing ability since he’d rather eat and drink by himself instead of feeding others. However, this passive skill would make things different. It would allow him to feed others delicious food while he himself could also eat the same. And in return for cooking them something delicious…
‘I can ask them to buy me ingredients!’
Minhyuk smiled happily as he thought of this.
Then, he finally checked the class quest, To Have a Feast with Other People.
[Class Quest: To Have a Feast with Other People.]
Rank: ?
Restriction: Eat the first God’s Legacy Dish.
Rewards: The 2nd God’s Legacy Dish. Restaurant Course Meal, Food God’s Personal Artifact.
Penalty for Failure: -100 to all five basic stats.
Description: The Food God Allen knew what his descendant would be like the best. Even though he believed that eating alone was good, he also believed that it was important to eat with others. This is a quest for you. A ‘satisfaction’ bar will be created during the progress of this quest. Once the satisfaction bar reaches 100% you will be able to receive the second God’s Legacy Dish. In addition, the satisfaction would vary depending on the level, title and abilities of the person who ate the dish.
Minhyuk nodded his head. In other words, he wanted him to cook for others and dine with them.
‘Hmm……’
Not long after, Balzarc broke the silence and looked at him.
“The Food God did a lot of things. Some were hateful and some were worthy of gratitude. Even I couldn’t forget the taste of his cooking. He said that this dish would help you in the process of learning the pleasure and joy of eating.”
“Is that so.”
It was truly a dish that could never be forgotten. Today, Minhyuk had tasted the jokbal set that he made. This jokbal set was truly delicious. It was the most delicious thing in the world. In addition, it even gave him an immunity towards all poisons and abnormal conditions. Just by trying to get some food, he was even able to get a lot of benefits.
‘Kongie, the armor, and even a title.’
He also received countless gold and artifacts just by feeding the monsters.
Of course, he still hadn’t checked the information of the Armor of Immortality. Just as he was about to do that…
“Oink……!”
Kongie floated slowly in the air.
[Kongie has evolved.]
[Kongie has evolved.]
It evolved twice after tasting the food that was made by the Food God, the God’s Legacy Dish. Maybe it had increased the experience that it received just by eating such a special dish.
A bright light suddenly covered Kongie’s body.
‘Don’t tell me that you’re going to evolve into a cool pet?’
Minhyuk had a bit of expectation.
Soon, the light disappeared and Kongie appeared!
“……Oink?”
Kongie was the same. Nothing changed at all.
Minhyuk nodded his head as he checked Kongie’s information.
(Kongie)
Rank: ???
Race: Pet
Level: 3
Attack Power: 132
Defensive Power: 3,251
Summoning Duration per Day: 2 hours.

━ Passive Skill: Instinctual Protection
Condition for Growth: The more delicious the food the owner eats, the higher the EXP and the higher the level it could evolve.
Potential: 184
Experience Value: 32% / 100%
“……?”
Minhyuk was extremely surprised when he saw the changes in Kongie’s stats. Kongie’s attack power only increased slightly but its defensive power rose exponentially.
‘3,251……?’
It was as high as the Hatchling from earlier and it had only increased its level by 2. In addition, whenever Minhyuk summoned Kongie, his attack power would also increase by 10%.
He clicked at the passive skill Instinctual Protection.
(Instinctual Protection)
Passive Skill
Rank: None
Level: None
Effects: Kongie’s instinct would be to always protect its owner. Kongie will alway do its best to stop the attack towards its owner with all its might.
Description: Sometimes, it might be cocky and proud but Kongie is a good pet. Such a good Kongie always wants to protect its owner. Kongie will always use its Instinctual Protection to protect you in a moment of crisis.
Minhyuk was in awe.
Balzarc, who was watching Kongie evolve, spoke to him.
“You’ll be able to find the rest of the God’s Legacy Dishes once you grow up more.”
“Yes.”
Minhyuk nodded his head. He was now done with his business. To get the second God’s Legacy Dish, he needed to fill the satisfaction level to 100%. That was something that needed time before it was completed. And once he leveled up and filled the satisfaction level to its fullest, he would be able to receive a hint for another God’s Legacy Dish.
“I hope that you will be able to work hard and eat a lot of delicious food well.”
Balzarc disappeared after imparting those words.
Minhyuk decided to feed the monsters in the monster’s paradise before leaving but he did not expect to do it faster than the time he expected. He quickly fed them all in one day and left the place.
***
The land of the dead, a hunting ground were only high leveled users at Lv450 hunted. In that place, the Lv430 Dullahans were being killed and swept away.
“Graaaaa!”
Slash!
Slash!
Whenever the light flashed, a clawmark would always appear and be left on the body of the Dullahans. The things that were dealing the damage on the Dullahans were none other than wolves. And right behind those wolves was a young man of African descent.
This was Kaistra. His real name was Kaistra and his nickname was also Kaistra.
Once again…
Slash!
With a flash of light, the Dullahans in front of him were swept away and killed.
Kaistra smiled contentedly as he watched the scene. In fact, Kaistra was a user who accidentally entered a South Korean server. He was also 9th in the world’s unofficial rankings and his job class was Embodiment of a Lion. It was a God class.
There was a reason why he was accidentally logged in a South Korean server.
He lived in a poor village. Almost all of the people in his village died due to boils and hunger. At that time, he was saved because some Korean medical staff and volunteers came to their village. They told him that they came from a South Korean company.
The Korean company was the Ilhwa Group.
They spared money for the village where Kaistra lived and did not wish for anything in return. They were just that generous.
Then, Kaistra asked a man from their group. It was Park Munsoo, the personal secretary of the chairman of the Ilhwa Group.
‘Uncle, why did you guys help us?’
Park Munsoo smiled at him.
‘Because we do not want to see people going hungry. It’s such a hard and unfortunate thing to happen to people.’
Then, he asked Kaistra, who was still young at that time.
‘Do you know what hunger is in Korean?’
Park Munsoo looked at him inquisitively for a moment, then he kneeled down and told Kaistra.
‘Do you see that guy over there? Our chairman knows this best more than anyone else.’
‘What’s the name of the chairman?’
‘Chairman Kang Minhoo. He’s a very great man.’
Kaistra smiled lightly.
Our benefactor.
When Kaistra heard his words, he decided that he would consider that man to be his benefactor forever.
