Solo Eating to Overpowered

Episode 130

“What’s so big?”

Level 400 named monster White Tiger!

Tigers that were much larger than the white tiger caught my eye.

Not only does it have a muscular body with sharp claws, but it also has incredibly large fangs!

X, convinced by the increasingly clear appearance of the guys, opened his mouth.

“…Saber-toothed tiger!”

It has the same appearance as the commonly known saber-toothed tiger, including its fangs that seem to drag on the floor and its developed front paws.

But I wondered where these guys suddenly appeared.

‘Did the weather get warmer so people who lived in other areas came over?’

Well, there was no need to know that. This is a moment of fierce competition! Because while I was worrying, I had to hit at least one more guy to get closer to victory.

“Kyuuuut!!”

You can never lose.

Shoot!

Yongyong may have felt the same way, but he pumped out his breath with all his might from the beginning. The saber-toothed tigers, engulfed in breath, rolled around on the floor.

Truly incredible firepower. Considering Yongyong’s magical power exceeded 6,000, it was not surprising.

“Hyukseombeop!”

You can’t fall behind from the start.

Sigh!

X also fired a sword attack at the saber-toothed tiger in front. An attack that hit the side with unexpected timing and exact location!

The saber-toothed tiger stumbled greatly.

[Fatal blow!]

[A confusion effect occurs on the saber-toothed tiger that wakes up!]

“…Oh, you’re holding on?”

It may be an extremely ordinary thing to other users, but it had a different meaning to X.

During his training at the closed facility, X visited various high-level hunting grounds to quickly level up.

At that time, the level of the guys I had chosen as prey was over 500! Naturally, they were guys with incredible vitality and fighting power.

Even if it was X, a light blow couldn’t stop him from breathing. In other words, you have to be at least level 500 to be able to withstand X’s blow!

X raised the corner of his mouth.

‘This is an unexpected situation, isn’t it?’

The saber-toothed tiger’s level is at least 500! Xernis I can’t believe such a high-level monster appears in a newly revealed field. In a situation where hard work was essential, there was no better slope.

‘Anyway, the saber-toothed tiger woke up.’

Crumbling!

Even though the saber-toothed tiger was in confusion, it did not lose its wild nature. The final struggle. The saber-toothed tiger rushed at X, but he easily used the Kalsumar shield technique to finish off the saber-toothed tiger.

X, who was looking at the fallen saber-toothed tiger, nodded.

‘They seem like the guys who were active during the ancient kingdom, right?’

Even X, who had extensive knowledge about Fate, had never heard of a rumor about a saber-toothed tiger.

Then isn’t there only one answer? Like Xernis, the saber-toothed tigers were quick-frozen and awakened in the present era!

‘What a monster from the ancient kingdom.’

Even for the saber-toothed tiger, its level and intense wildness were no joke.

In addition to the saber-toothed tiger, it must be a truckload of ancient monsters that have awakened from a deep sleep! X’s heart was already pounding.

‘Take care of what you need.’

Level 510 X’s eyes flashed after using Heaven’s Grab on the saber-toothed tiger that woke up.

A bet with Yongyong, new monsters, and even new ingredients!

“I will win every single one of you!”

“Kyuututut.”

Do you even have time to chat?

X, enraged by Yongyong’s continued provocation, accelerated the hunt. The end of competition without giving an inch.

The Goddess of Victory smiled at X again.

dump! X lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

“Wow, if it wasn’t for Magic Arrow, I would have lost.”

Sheep hunting using Magic Arrow!

X used the Magic Arrow to attract the monsters’ attention, or aggro.

Although it was difficult to inflict fatal damage due to the low level of skill, there was nothing like this to soothe one’s nerves. Yongyong grunted and lay down on X’s stomach.

“Kyuut. “Kyuututut!!”

“Hey, between us, where is mine and yours?”

“Kyuu kyuu.”

He just speaks slyly.

X’s selfish hunting method! It was Yongyong who unfortunately allowed the reversal as his prey was taken away in front of him, but X had an intuition.

That I would never be able to beat this little dragon in my next bet. X muttered.

“So we should stop betting now.”

“Kyuu?!”

“There is something like that here.”

Even if it’s childish, there won’t be an owner this childish.

X took out the silverware, leaving Yongyong behind, who was feeling aggrieved. Since you worked hard, it’s time to eat properly.

I was planning to prepare a plentiful meal with new ingredients. X cleaned the herbs he had collected nearby.

“They say seasonal side dishes are the best.”

-Rough wild glow-in-the-dark weed (normal)

A weed with tenacious vitality.

It is edible, but the taste is not very good.

Saturation: +5%

Special Effect: If consumed without preparation, there is a small chance of suffering from a mild illness.

-Young thorn tree stem (normal)

The stem of a young thorn tree.

It’s edible, but you have to be prepared to see blood.

Saturation: +1%

Special Effect: If consumed without preparation, there is a high chance of suffering from a mild bleeding effect.

Just looking at the information that comes to mind, strange food ingredients! These are ingredients that even a passing wild dog would skip, but X is a rare eater who enjoys eating even more than these.

‘Sprinkle different spices on each.’

Lululala. X, who was humming, started cooking the main dish of the day. First, I took out a wide pan and laid out various tea leaves to remove the unpleasant smell.

“The time has finally come to use this.”

Then I took out salt from my inventory. It was a rare grade of rock salt received as a reward after completing a simple errand quest at Papulan Falls.

X spread rock salt in a large pan.

‘This is my first time seeing something like this.’

No separate cooking skills were created for X. Because there was a heavenly dish that was compatible with the higher level.

Thanks to this, even ordinary dishes made without the shadow of a gourmet king easily surpassed the skills of a top chef. But greedy X couldn’t be satisfied with that.

‘Many attempts lead to improved skills!’

The more you learn various recipes, the more your stats can double!

Dip, pour, eat. Furthermore, I couldn’t satisfy my overflowing greed even with the spice skill. X was now starting his own cooking journey.

‘All you have to do is upload it and wait.’

On top of the piled salt, I put a lot of normal grade saber-toothed tiger sirloin and awl woodpecker chicken legs.

Level 480 Awl Woodpecker is also an ancient monster like the saber-toothed tiger.

‘It doesn’t matter to me, but it was written that the meat of both was dry. Would you say that if you cover it with salt and bake it like this, the moisture will not escape and it will be moist?’

There are countless recipes floating around the internet! It was a dish made by making the most of the pitiful information that X had.

Even if it’s a hassle now, it will all be a valuable experience. It didn’t take long for the dish to be completed.

“Kyuuuuuut!!”

Yongyong smelled the scent and vigorously wagged his tail. A scent that is truly worth the wait!

X could no longer control his drool. It’s scary to take a bite.

Tiroling!

A notification sounded indicating a stat increase.

“Tsk tsk tsk. “It’s really not soft at all, is it?”

“Kyunut!”

“After all, people have to learn.”

Dinner after a rewarding hunt!

How can big eaters be satisfied with just one dish? X and Yongyong have already finished their fourth dish with two or three.

Although he was full, X immediately started preparing the next dish. Because my inventory was full of ingredients I hadn’t even tasted yet!

“Firepower is important in this case.”

“Kyuu?”

“Breath? “Oh, anyway, that’s too harsh.”

Tuk-tuk. X added more firewood to the fire and lowered his head to keep the embers alive.

It was then.

“…?”

A subtle presence was felt deep in the ground.

A movement so small that you wouldn’t normally feel it. However, thanks to X having just eaten heavenly cuisine, his affinity for nature has increased dramatically.

In addition, it was X who repeatedly practiced not missing even the slightest sign while dealing with numerous monsters.

“!”

Tiroling!

The results of that practice finally bore fruit.

[‘Intuition’ was created through constant training!]

New status intuition!

As the type of status you have increases, the effort invested when creating a new status increases exponentially.

Moreover, intuition is one of the stats that has a reputation for being difficult to obtain unless you are a certain profession, including an explorer.

“nice!”

Once something is created, isn’t it a good thing? In addition, intuition lowered the probability of being fatally injured by sensing enemies, detecting traps, and detecting threats.

In short, it is worth investing the remaining bonus points.

‘By the way, what about that just now?’

X got on his nerves again. The presence was still felt.

Bubbly! Ignoring the boiling water, X lay down on the floor and focused on the sound.

‘…Sounds kind of familiar?’

One by one, one by one, I feel a certain rhythm.

Crumbling!

If you listen closer, you can hear the sound clearly.

Kangkang!

That sound is so familiar. X opened his mouth in wonder.

“…It’s the sound of shoveling.”

What a shovel! I wondered what the situation was. The presence was felt to be dozens of meters underground.

It may be okay if it’s a common mole, but if someone is really digging, you can’t help but be suspicious. X smoothed his chin.

‘Of course I should check it out, right?’

It may have been anywhere else, but it was around his territory, Xernis.

With the amount of gold already invested in Xernis, it was necessary to fully understand at least one possibility. I’ll eat the meal I couldn’t finish in the evening!

“When did you fall asleep?”

Be fully prepared to find the hero of the shovel! After making up his mind,

Naturally, I had to dig because I had to find the thing under the ground.

“Good, I will protect my land!”

Although he was overflowing with enthusiasm, X thought calmly.

There was a need to think about it since we had to dig down at least tens of meters further through the thick ground.

After thinking about it, X raised his right hand.

“It’s rewarding to use it consistently.”

Kuddeuk!

At the gesture of X’s hand, dancing stems sprang up. In addition to the proficiency exceeding 50%, there was also an old tree spirit ring that increased the proficiency of natural magic by 20%.

X pointed his finger at the floor. Then the thick stem that rose began to wriggle and burrow into the ground. This was also one of the newly practiced attack patterns.

‘It could be used irregularly in battle.’

How to hide the direction of attack by spreading the stem from underground!

I practiced this pattern because I was sick of the guys who easily dodged the dancing stems, but I had no idea that I would actually be using it to dig the ground.

Kuddeuk!

The stem made a huge hole with a loud sound. X quickly climbed onto the extending stem and concentrated on controlling it. It wasn’t long before X stuck out his tongue.

“Wow, how deep are you?”

At this point, it was surprising that I felt a presence.

By the time even the sunlight visible above the hole had faded. The stem that had been digging down the ground without hesitation stopped moving.

A space appeared. X, who carefully got off the stem, suddenly let out a look of surprise.

“…What are you doing in someone else’s front yard?”

Munchkin that I eat all by myself
