Chapter 22
Episode 22
“Wow, I really enjoyed the meal. Senior Kalon!”
“Hehe, I feel full just looking at you eating deliciously.”
gulp! X even drank the refreshing drink that came with dessert.
Of course, I didn’t forget to add a small amount of spices.
A notification came to mind.
[Heavenly taste has discovered the taste hidden in ‘mysterious soda water’!]
[The refreshing taste of mysterious soda water is absorbed into your body!]
[Maximum mana increases by 100 points!]
[Intelligence increases by 2 points!]
‘Feast’ ‘There is no other dinner like this!’
The ability to increase even the last dessert was significant.
It was difficult to remember all the reminders of the three-hour meal.
X checked the stats.

_ I just heard it! I gained tremendous stats. To achieve this level of stat increase through hard work… the increase was so great that even imagining it made my eyes dark.
‘But you can’t be lazy.’
Hard work is your life partner! X was insatiable.
Since I had gorged myself beyond my satiety level, I was planning to move my stomach harder from now on.
X stood up.
“I think it caused too much trouble during business hours.”
“Oh, I told you not to worry about that. You, his successor, are more important to me than business. “Please don’t feel pressured and come visit us in the future.”
“If you say so much. “I will stop by often!”
I’ll let you know every time I get a new spice!
X made up his mind and thought about his destination.
‘Where should I hunt next?’
The level is 51.
However, in terms of stats, it is close to level 200.
Therefore, no matter which hunting ground you went to, rapid leveling up was guaranteed.
Among the numerous hunting grounds, the first place that came to mind was the desert in the center of the Arba Kingdom.
‘The level of those who inhabit it is in the early 100s, and the items they give are quite expensive, and some of them drop treasures from the ancient kingdom.’
Desert of oblivion!
It was the capital of an unknown ancient kingdom thousands of years before the founding of the Arba Kingdom. However, for some reason, monsters constantly appeared in this cursed land, making it uninhabitable despite its good location.
In other words, it could be said to be a great hunting ground that would not be intrusive to users. However, there were few users who settled down and hunted in the desert of oblivion. X recalled a video he saw last night.
‘You said that sometimes monsters that are impossible to catch appear, right?’
Sand monster!
It was an unidentified monster that appeared with a certain probability in the Desert of Oblivion.
Because it was enveloped by a strong sand wind, its true form could not be determined.
However, it was clear that he was an incredibly strong person.
‘Because the top rankers were also brutally destroyed.’
Rankers fall from one attack!
X smiled as he replayed the video in his head.
‘Are you afraid I can’t make soybean paste because I’m afraid of maggots?’
The next hunting ground has been decided to be the Desert of Oblivion!
For X, the Desert of Oblivion was one of the hunting grounds that he could not give up. Monsters pouring down at the dungeon level. In addition, there is a risk of sand monsters, so there are few competitors and even items can make money!
X looked at his hands lovingly.
“Besides, if you have these golden hands….”
The treasure of the ancient kingdom!
It won’t be difficult to acquire that mysterious treasure.
Kalon suddenly spoke to X, who had a sinister smile on his face.
“Where do you plan to go next?”
“yes? “I want to go to the desert of oblivion.”
“It’s the Desert of Oblivion… It’s a dangerous place, but I’m not worried. You will do well. But before that, I have one thing to tell you.”
Is there really any good information out there?
X listened.
Kalon whispered in a low voice.
“Actually, just one person. “I know the whereabouts of someone related to him.”
“Is that really true?”
The Gourmet King’s subjects were scattered throughout the Fate World!
Does Calon know the whereabouts of one of them?
This wasn’t normal.
‘If anyone Kalon knows knows the recipe.’
Bear stance!
This is the first recipe that had great results.
But what if you get one more skill equivalent to that bear stance?
Even though it was an immediate level up, this was an opportunity that I had to seize at all costs.
X asked urgently.
“Sir, do you know where he is?”
“I know. Because I’m not a person who leaves easily. Just…”
“Just?”
“That old man must be such an eccentric person.”
Eccentric?
What about you?
It was absurd to hear such words come out of Kalon’s mouth, but it didn’t matter right now.
X focused on Kalon’s next words.
And I had no choice but to admit it.
“…You’re a really eccentric person.”
Freak Liglian!
He was a contemporary of the Gourmet King 300 years ago!
To be precise, he was one of the subjects who assisted the Gourmet King along with Kalon’s great-grandfather Kalsumar.
“Time has passed since he suddenly disappeared. That old man went beyond loyalty and became crooked. “To the point where even death is denied.”
Kalon trembled.
X also felt like shaking with him.
‘No matter what, wouldn’t it be a bit too much to wait until it turns into a skeleton?’
To become undead to reunite with the Gourmet King who will return someday!
It was truly a way of thinking that could be called a freak.
Hot! Kalon grabbed X’s hand.
“X Anyway, think carefully about meeting that old man. It’s already been 20 years since I last met that old man. “I can’t guarantee how it would have changed.”
He is so eccentric that he turns himself into an undead.
No one knows what will happen to X, the successor to the Gourmet King. That’s why Kalon wanted to stop X. As I said, X is not the type of person who is afraid of maggots.
‘Anyway, I’m confident if it’s to please people.’
The skills I developed as the owner of a chicken restaurant!
Also, no matter what his current appearance was, Ligrien was also a loyal subject of the Gourmet King.
No matter how much time has passed. Could it be that he would harm himself, the successor to the Gourmet King?
‘Even if I have to die, I have to go first.’
A benefit that is worth the death penalty!
If it’s the second recipe from the King of Gourmet, it’s worth it.
X opened his mouth with a serious expression.
“Don’t worry about me, Senior Kalon. What does it matter what you look like now? Rather, I think we should move as quickly as possible for Liglian, who is still waiting for him.”
“X, how can you have such deep feelings! As expected, my thoughts were short. “I am learning so much from you.”
Kalon was moved and wiped the corners of his eyes.
He then began to explain Ligrien’s location.
“West of Narville. If you go straight west, you will see the sea. If you pass about three small and large villages, you will hear the sound of waves. “That’s where that old man, Liglian, on Dead Man’s Beach, lives.”
Dead Man’s Beach?
X tilted his head.
‘I’ve never heard of it before?’
X did a lot of research on Fate. But Dead Man’s Beach was a name I had never heard of. Moreover, isn’t the beach you find if you go all the way west from Narville the ‘Sea of Lovers’?
X asked again, wondering if he had heard wrong.
“Is this Dead Man’s Beach? “Isn’t it the Sea of Lovers?”
“Sea of Lovers? What else is that? If you go west from Narville, you will reach the sea. “That is the ugly beach of the dead.”
“That can’t be possible….”
Buck-buck.
X scratched his head.
Kalon’s expression was so serious that he even asked further questions.
First, X left Calon’s restaurant.
‘Is this a hidden field?’
The name of the Sea of Lovers was so eye-catching that I clearly remembered its location so as not to pass by. But the location of the lover’s sea and the beach of the dead are the same?
I could only assume this was a hidden area.
“I guess I’ll find out once I get there?”
Seeing is worth hearing.
Just thinking with your head has its limits. In reality, it could have been an easy answer. Also, there was no reason for Kalon to lie to himself.
X thought simply and walked away.
‘Dispose of some items and buy new weapons.’
Unexpected light speed level up!
It was an X who was wearing equipment that was flimsy compared to its level.
I had to dispose of the equipment I was wearing and buy new equipment.
‘I don’t feel like it, but I suffer less losses this way.’
Weapons and armor did not receive the correct price when sold to NPCs.
Therefore, X opened an auction house for the first time in a while. X’s eyebrows twitched.
‘Oh, the gold price has stabilized quite a bit.’
5,000 won per gold.
The price of gold was maintained around 5,000 won. The price was much more stable than when X first accessed Fate.
X shook his head.
‘Exchange gold to cash? Selling sounds good.’
The basis of every game is money!
If you’re aiming for the top, how can you exchange bloody gold for cash?
Even though X had money to spare, he had no intention of exchanging gold for cash for the time being.
‘I didn’t fry the chicken for no reason to smell the fishy smell.’
The living expenses saved are enough to comfortably last a year if you tighten your belt.
X registered the deer skin armor, sword, and shield at the auction house.
“I can never give it to you cheaply.”
Even though it is a low-level flame, a firework is a firework.
Thanks to this, not only was the level unique, but the deer leather armor also had agility.
X listed the item at a fairly high price.
Tiroling!
[Sale is complete!]
[Sale is complete!]
[Sale is complete!]
[Sale is complete!]
Items sold out as soon as I uploaded them!
X checked the gold in his inventory.
After deducting a small fee, the correct amount was received.
“It seems like the number of new users has increased.”
New users with money and time to spare!
I heard that they are investing a lot of money in Fate.
X, who disposed of the item, could also feel those words.
X closed the auction house without any regrets.
‘You can’t use gold easily.’
When I looked at the auction house, there were many desirable items.
However, there is no reason to purchase an item by investing hundreds of gold.
Because X had items acquired through Heavenly Grabbing!
‘This is enough armor.’
A unique item obtained from the named monster Cave Bear.
God’s protection of the winter forest!
Because it is made of leather, it is light in weight, but its defensive power is comparable to that of heavy armor. If you strengthen it, you can use it for quite a long time.
‘I guess I can buy weapons from Morgan again.’
X’s level-up speed was much faster than that of other users. Therefore, there was no need to purchase expensive items appropriate for the current level.
“Oh, you need a weapon made of the highest quality steel? If so, this is it! “It’s a very good product that can be delivered to the kingdom as well.”
X purchased from Morgan a sword and shield equivalent to those supplied to the Knights of the Kingdom of Arba. A luxury item worth well over 200 gold per bag! However, it was not a waste because it was a necessary investment.
“The more expensive it is, the better.”
X said the obvious and put on his equipment.
And then I immediately checked the inventory.
“I have emergency village return orders, spices, and ingredients to combine, and I dispose of everything that is useless. Are the preparations roughly complete?”
If preparations are complete, there is no reason to delay any longer.
Freak Liglian!
X hurried towards him who might know the Gourmet King’s second recipe.
X passed through the western gate of Narville and his motivation burned.
‘There are a total of 3 villages that appear until you see the sea… So I guess I should be at least level 70 by the time I get to the first village, right?’
Munchkin that I eat all by myself
