Apocalypse Reconquest Chapter 119 of the Return of the King

Episode 119

In order to keep the byproduct of the antimatter cow from disappearing, it must be properly dismantled at the moment of death using the slaughter ability.

As befitting its antimatter nature, if you do not cut it along the grain of the meat, the corpse of the antimatter will oxidize and disappear.

The principle is that the structure of magical power is distorted.

‘It was said that even with the magic related to fixing the magic power of wizards, it was impossible to leave behind the corpse of an antimatter cow.’

I think I heard an explanation that the moment you use it, the flow of magical power that makes up the body of the antimatter cow gets tangled and it just turns into a lump of magical power.

A material that must have the ability to enter the barrier and a high level of slaughtering ability.

In short, it is a special material that can only be obtained by bringing companions of a certain level or higher and having a fixed number of slaughtering abilities.

As expected, Go Jeong-hwan skillfully dismembered the cow.

Beef chunks are piled on the newspaper in a translucent state without disappearing.

Sehyuk returned to the inn, wrapping the meat well.

Just in case, Sehyuk asked the innkeeper about the barrier leading to the other world before coming here.

Think back to the situation.

“Have you ever seen the barrier that covers the Gyeongcheon Mountain area?”

“It’s a barrier. I’ve seen it before. I’ve seen translucent monsters inside it. That must be the other world.”

“Have you ever tried catching monsters?”

“I tried to catch it. But it just disappeared. It was quite a shame.”

I thought so.

Even for the most accomplished chefs, cutting up a cow is not an easy task if you have never done it before.

Even if it could be done, it would not be easy for the innkeeper, who is a magician, to cut it due to its antimatter nature.

It might be difficult for other chefs, but it would be difficult for innkeepers.

Se-hyeok, a stronger swordsman than anyone else, was certain that the innkeeper’s swordsmanship was of that level.

So Sehyuk said.

“Then I’ll try making something out of those guys. You can look forward to it.”

Well-processed, translucent beef meat not only guarantees the taste of dishes, but is also a good ingredient for enhancing the abilities of the consumer.

Because it basically contains a lot of magical power.

Of course, it also needs to be processed properly, but from now on, Go Jeong-hwan will process it neatly as Se-hyeok has told him.

You inform the bartender of your return, and he directs you to a secret space on the third floor of the inn.

Enter the innkeeper’s private space.

The impression Sehyuk got when he saw the innkeeper’s room was that it looked like a warehouse.

Because it was a disorganized room reminiscent of a general store or an old shop.

Clumps of crushed grass, jars of salted meat, and various crafting tools fill one wall.

Upon closer inspection, I noticed that among all that clutter, there was a particularly neat space.

The only space in a cluttered room that seems neat.

It was none other than the kitchen.

It’s a neat and tidy kitchen with an oven, stove, and other cooking appliances that look like something you’d see in a pre-apocalyptic chef’s state-of-the-art apartment.

The innkeeper was sitting in front of the kitchen, waiting.

“You came. Then I’ll look forward to it.”

His eyes shine with anticipation.

“Then excuse me.”

Sehyuk also sat next to the innkeeper.

Go Jeong-hwan starts cooking.

Everyone else is admiring Goh Jeong-hwan’s cooking at the table in front of him.

Cut the mushrooms that the small dragon has previously purified and set them aside.

“Oh. Are these mushrooms taken from monsters? They smell really good.”

“Yes. The purification process is complete, but the remaining toxin is so fine that it doesn’t affect the body, and it mixes with the mushroom’s unique smell to enhance the flavor.”

“Good. Good!”

And then comes one of the highlights of the day.

chin.

Translucent meat placed on top of a table.

The innkeeper smiles when he sees that.

“That’s the meat of that antimatter cow!”

“Yes. As you know, there are plenty of them if you go through the barrier around the mountain. However, you may need to bring a specialist to collect the materials.”

“Right! How on earth did you get this?”

“In fact, the method is surprisingly simple.”

“Tell me quickly!”

The innkeeper looks at this place with a pounding expression.

It’s a face that anyone can clearly see is enjoying themselves.

“This needs to go through a proper slaughtering process before it can be used as an ingredient. You need to know how to cut it into parts, so to speak.”

“I see! So that’s why I couldn’t get it until now.”

After that, there was an exchange of explanations about the materials.

The innkeeper’s expression grew more and more pleased every time he heard an explanation about the ingredients.

The innkeeper continues to watch Goh Jeong-hwan’s cooking process.

Cheeeeek!

Put vegetable oil in the pan to replace cooking oil and cook the meat until it becomes a beautiful brown color on all sides.

Cook until medium rare, keeping the exact time, then take it out and let it rest.

After frying onions, mushrooms, and other vegetables, make a garnish.

Now it’s the turn of today’s main character to appear.

The splendid scent of nature wafts out as soon as you take it out.

A beautiful green light and magical power bursting out.

These are the leaves of the world tree.

Kkudangtang!

At that sight, the innkeeper got up from his seat with wide eyes.

He must have been so surprised that the chair he was sitting on flipped backwards and rolled across the floor.

“Wait a minute, what the hell is that!”

Fixed rate

A look that asks if it’s okay to talk.

Sehyuk answered instead.

“It’s just an ordinary leaf from the world tree.”

“This isn’t ordinary at all!”

The innkeeper slowly approached the leaves of the World Tree.

“Uh-huh-huh… Please, let me see it just once. Just once! To be able to see something like this! Aaam!”

His eyes were now gleaming with madness.

Sehyuk calmly caught the innkeeper.

“First, look at the dish and think about it.”

“Ahem. Okay. I made a fool of myself.”

Upon hearing that, the innkeeper came to his senses and straightened the chair that was rolling on the floor.

“After I finish cooking, let’s talk about that item. I’ll give you anything I can give you!”

“Look at it.”

“Hey.”

The innkeeper gives me a look of disappointment.

Let the steak sit for a while.

Next, we start making a modified version of Fairy Drink, the Fairy Drink.

Take out the ingredients.

It’s not much different from the process of making fairy wine.

It just uses slightly simpler materials and the process is simpler.

One of them is a plant that grows on the ghostly green hill where the Guiho Cave was located.

This is a substitute material for sapling stones.

“Hmm? That feels similar to the grass that grows on that haunted hill.”

“That’s the grass.”

“Huh? You use that ominous grass in cooking?”

“One of my joys as a chef is challenging myself to make these strange ingredients edible.”

With those words, Go Jeong-hwan took out the material description he had prepared.

After accidentally obtaining a recipe that has been passed down as a legend in another world, he starts talking about fairy wine.

The story goes that the drink we are about to present is a work that has been successfully implemented to some extent using simple ingredients by appropriately modifying the method of making that liquor.

“Oh, really! A legendary drink from another world. I really want to try it someday.”

The innkeeper also took a keen interest in the existence of the fairies.

Because the eyes of the usually polite and kind innkeeper were wide with madness, longing, and joy.

Raw desires are bursting out without restraint.

Legendary ingredients and legendary recipes that will excite any culinary researcher.

It was natural that he got excited and lost face because he was showing all those things in front of him but not actually giving them to him.

Go Jeong-hwan puts the ingredients into the bottle he prepared in advance.

The grass and saplings of Guiho Cave have a common tendency to reproduce explosively by indiscriminately sucking up the magical power of the surrounding area.

This explosive, expansive quality creates the refreshing taste of fairy wine.

Of course, the grass in Guiho Cave has the characteristic of sucking up magical power indiscriminately, unlike the seedling stones that only react to pure magical power or life energy.

This is why the hills of Guiho Cave remain green all the time, even in winter-like weather and during natural disasters such as rainy seasons, floods, and droughts.

The accumulated turbid energy in the Guiho Cave is also a type of magical energy. It continues to multiply by sucking it up.

“Then isn’t that grass full of turbid energy? It would have a bad effect on the human body. Has it been purified?”

The innkeeper’s question.

Go Jeong-hwan leisurely takes out the answer he had prepared.

“That’s right. The turbid air has a negative effect on the human body. We adjusted the ratio by adding a little more purified water. We are suppressing the turbid air through purification.”

Add all the ingredients and finely chop the leaves of the world tree and add them to the gojeonghwan.

A twinkling light surrounds the bottle.

Seeing that sight, Go Jeong-hwan grabs the bottle and lets out his energy.

Materials that slowly fuse together as if melting when touched by magic power.

Go Jeong-hwan closes his eyes and concentrates on his work.

After a short while, a drink was born with a brilliant light green magic and a light purple and light blue magic light shining at the end.

Meanwhile, the innkeeper, who was looking closely at the drink, opened his eyes wide in surprise.

“This lavender and light blue magic, could it be the energy of another world?”

“That’s great. That’s right.”

“Isn’t it dangerous?”

“You might think so, but we have been researching to find the optimal ratio to preserve the unique flavor of this otherworldly energy.”

“Oh my.”

At the word research, the innkeeper’s face briefly showed a look of satisfaction.

At first glance, it looks like he’s scored points.

“Well, good. Since you brought these materials, I guess you’re confident in your skills. I’ll look forward to it.”

The drink is poured into a wine glass provided by the innkeeper.

The drink was poured into glasses in small portions, becoming a perfect liquid that shone beautifully.

Even though so much grass was added, it was so perfectly blended that no traces of it could be found.

“hmm!”

The innkeeper holds the cup, closes his eyes, and breathes in, savoring the scent.

The refreshing fragrance of the leaves of the World Tree vibrates.

Next, it’s time to plate the sliced ​​steak.

Cut the steak into bite-size pieces and place in a bowl with the garnish of sautéed mushrooms and onions.

Place the meat on top, maintaining the shape of the steak, and finish by garnishing with a finely chopped leaf of the world tree and scattering it over the mushrooms and steak.

“Take a bite first.”

The dish is finally complete.

“Then let’s try it.”

The innkeeper brings a piece of meat to his mouth.

Sehyuk looked at the innkeeper with complicated feelings.

‘The cooking is not lacking in perfection. The problem is how much satisfaction it brings.’

Surely, favorability will rise.

However, the problem is whether or not he will have the heart to take Go Jeong-hwan as his disciple.

After all, the goal is to carry on the innkeeper’s vision, not to satisfy the innkeeper.

Now it’s time to see the results.

The moment the innkeeper put the steak in his mouth.

His eyes widened and his brows narrowed in a way that made it clearly visible that he was surprised.
