Apocalypse Reconquest Chapter 120

Episode 120

The innkeeper chews on the steak that Go Jeong-hwan prepared.

Narrowed eyebrows and surprised eyes.

The innkeeper, who had been eating the food with an expression of amazement for a long time, smiles brightly.

“Wow, this is amazing. What a great texture! And the taste is also superb.”

When an antimatter cow is slaughtered and processed in a special way, it becomes an ingredient that not only contains a lot of magical power and maximizes cooking buffs, but also has a unique texture.

“It’s chewy when you chew it, but when you take it off your teeth, it feels like the fat is melting on your tongue.”

The innkeeper puts another piece of meat into his mouth.

He tilts his head back slightly while chewing his food and smiles, as if he feels something.

“It doesn’t look like a particularly good piece of meat, but it tastes like the best, even better than the top-quality two-plus! It even adds a bit of mystery to the already luxurious texture.”

“That’s right. In fact, I brought some meat that wasn’t very good quality to show you.”

Go Jeong-hwan smiles and pats the meat.

“That’s the special thing about this meat. It materializes on impact and is chewy, but when you remove your teeth, it slowly dematerializes, giving off a melt-in-your-mouth sensation.”

“It’s a truly mysterious taste and it’s amazing. If you eat meat of this quality.”

“It can also be used as combat rations. When eaten, it recharges your magical power and has the effect of clearing your mind.”

“That’s the advantage of monster cuisine.”

The innkeeper looked very pleased and pleased with himself.

The innkeeper’s hand, having enjoyed a moderate amount of meat, reaches for a glass of wine.

Today’s main event. It’s a drink.

A sip of liquid flows into her round face, which is once again savoring the fragrance and smiling softly.

And then, at that moment, the innkeeper opens his eyes wide again.

Bam!

The innkeeper quickly emptied the fairy’s drink from the wineglass.

“This is driving me crazy. Is there anything else?”

The innkeeper licks his lips. His face is a mixture of regret and thirst.

Of course, the way to properly enjoy wine is to smell the aroma, then hold it in your mouth and enjoy the taste and aroma.

There is no way that the innkeeper, who is a gourmet and a top-class chef, would not know the method.

Nevertheless, it was emptied in one breath.

Because the horizon of flavors that the drink shows is like heaven.

“I said earlier that I would neutralize the turbidity in the drink while still leaving the otherworldly energy in it. That’s really great. The remaining otherworldly energy combined with the refreshing taste reminds me of the coolness of carbonation.”

The sweetness that extends from the fairy drink. The refreshing taste. The refreshing and ecstatic taste that mysteriously spreads through your mouth takes your mind off things and makes you want to drink more.

It was a taste that was so delicious in terms of taste, aroma, and flavor that it made me want to eat a lot, a taste that naturally aroused gluttony.

“It’s really the perfect ratio. If it had been too strong, the tangy taste would have made me feel like I was being artificially unpleasantly intruded into this perfect harmony of nature.”

The innkeeper, in a state of ecstasy, closes his eyes and gives a satisfying review.

“You must have blended grass and purified water countless times to purify the turbid air. I really like the effort that went into finding this optimal ratio.”

The innkeeper kept expressing his satisfaction and admiration.

The innkeeper, who was drinking a beverage and feeling regretful, glances at Go Jeong-hwan and Se-hyeok.

Go Jeong-hwan smiled and took the ingredients out of the bag again.

“There is plenty of food and drinks, so eat as much as you want. I will serve you.”

“Please give me more!

Go Jeong-hwan started cooking for him again.

In addition to drinks that you can’t find anywhere else, we also try new interpretations of existing high-end dishes.

The innkeeper is so happy that he keeps shaking in his chair.

If you are a culinary researcher, not only the innkeeper but anyone would be so happy that they would feel like they were hit with the electric chair.

* * *

“It was a truly satisfying meal.”

After finishing the meal, the innkeeper dabbed his handkerchief over his eyes.

Looking closely, I see tears streaming down the handkerchief.

“I am glad that you had a satisfying meal. Please be kind to me in the future as it is a bribe for our continued alliance.”

“Of course, of course!”

The innkeeper smiles contentedly and pats Sehyuk on the shoulder.

Sehyuk glanced at the innkeeper.

Will the innkeeper like Go Jeong-hwan?

If this method fails, we will have to find another way.

The innkeeper’s face turns towards Goh Jeong-hwan.

The anticipated moment.

The innkeeper’s mouth opens.

“That chef friend of mine. Is he very busy? Do you have to keep taking him with you?”

My heart is pounding.

“He’s such a versatile guy, I usually leave him in charge of our base. In my group of survivors, he’s the second-highest commanding officer.”

“Hmm. I see.”

The innkeeper who said those words had a slightly worried look on his face.

“What’s wrong? Would it be okay if I casually ask why you asked?”

“Actually, I had a lot of disciples compared to other chefs.”

The innkeeper glances at the kitchen with a hazy face.

As if to recall other people who have visited this kitchen in the past.

“I wanted someone to take the research I did and develop it into something better. Even though they were all still fledglings.”

“I see. By any chance?”

“Yes. You guessed right. As the world became strange, I wrote a new horizon for cooking in my own way. But now I have lost all contact with my students.”

It was a strange face.

The regret and lament that comes from seeing everything you have created and built up become nothing more than a piece of waste paper.

At the same time, there is hope that a lot of new ingredients will appear, opening up new horizons in the culinary world.

These incompatible emotions are mixed together on the chef’s face, creating a strangeness.

However, the regret on the chef’s face was not one of despair.

Perhaps, it feels like a regret of not being able to spread what I have accumulated in the past, and a sadness of not being able to share what I have newly discovered with someone.

It’s a face you can really see because you love it.

To love is to be able to see and embrace someone comprehensively, with all their flaws and strengths.

The reason Sehyuk wants to return the world to its original state is because he wants to protect the love of these people.

“I see. I’m fine. Mr. Goh Jeong-hwan will be happy if you teach me.”

“That’s right! It would be a great honor if you could teach me too.”

Even after Sehyuk gave his permission, the innkeeper’s troubled face did not disappear.

“Yes. There is that problem too… I would like to take Mr. Go Jeong-hwan as my disciple, but Mr. Go Jeong-hwan is a swordsman and can’t use magic, right?”

I think I finally understood.

What is this person struggling with?

“Since I can’t use magic, I can’t accept the new horizons of monster cuisine that I’ve created. Ugh. He’s a really nice guy.”

Although he was worried about finding a candidate for his disciple, it seems he was worried about the part that Go Jeong-hwan could not fill.

‘Of course, Go Jeong-hwan can’t completely master the innkeeper’s cooking or ingredient gathering methods. He can’t use magic.’

But that’s okay.

Sehyuk is a regressor.

I also know who continued the innkeeper’s progress before the return.

In addition, I have a rough idea of ​​what kind of thoughts the innkeeper has and how he lives.

Sehyuk blurted out a word to the troubled innkeeper.

“Then, how about a temporary disciple instead of a proper disciple?”

The innkeeper’s disciple before his return was also a good person.

Sehyuk didn’t necessarily want to take that person’s place.

Anyway, I was planning to find that person someday and introduce him to the innkeeper.

I believe that this person can make your worries and dreams come true.

“But I’m still not a wizard. My vision won’t be preserved properly.”

The troubled innkeeper.

Sehyuk brought the answer he had found first in front of him.

“It’s about creating new uses for something that has the same origin but is completely different. Doesn’t that resemble culinary research?”

“Oh my?”

“If the vision created by the wizard is passed on to the inspector, another new path may open up.”

Words thrown out.

The innkeeper, who had been thinking about those words for a moment, soon began to laugh heartily.

“Haha! That’s right. I guess I was short-sighted. I like it. You look young, but you’re really deep in thought, huh?”

As he said that, the innkeeper flashed Sehyuk his usual mischievous smile.

“It’s like you’re a few years older than me! Haha!”

Did they even notice that I had regressed?

These are indeed the words of a wizard with the talent of insight.

Sehyuk felt a pang inside, but he didn’t show much of a reaction.

The innkeeper approached Goh Jeong-hwan with a smile and put his hand on his shoulder.

“My vision is to learn how to cook. My enlightenment is made through contemplation of ingredients and experimentation with their uses.”

Go Jeong-hwan nodded politely.

“I will study hard.”

* * *

A few more days passed like that.

Sehyuk and his party received the best treatment from the innkeeper, trained, and slowly explored Suwon.

The first plan of the Suwon King. The land grab project.

As the mercenary group is active, reports are coming in that the work of incorporating various survivor forces in Suwon, including Sorae Fisheries, into the mercenary group is going well.

Under the guidance of the innkeeper, Goh Jeong-hwan is learning how to prepare various ingredients, cook, and diligently study to gain insight.

“I can’t see my family.”

“You’ll find it someday.”

Everything was going well, but the search for Go Jeong-hwan’s family and Cha Ye-seong’s parents was not going well.

It looks like it’s really well hidden.

‘I don’t feel good.’

Still, I looked around about half of Suwon.

If it was to that extent, Cha Ye-seong’s prophetic ability should have helped him figure it out quickly.

The prophecy that Cha Ye-seong spoke of seemed to be that the closer you get, the better you can see and the less strength you have to use.

The closeness of physical distance is of course also included in ‘closeness.’

But I still haven’t found out about my parents.

‘It has to be a problem of goodwill that I can solve.’

Se-hyuk also hasn’t heard anything about Cha Ye-seong’s parents before her return.

‘I feel like the future books have become so useless lately.’

The book of the future also remains silent.

There was a slight fluttering sound coming from the future book, but Sehyuk didn’t bother to take it out to look.

While spending time like that, I had an early dinner at the inn.

People are rushing into the inn.

Those who wear yellow metal badges on their cowboy hats, like sheriffs of the wilderness.

He has put on a giant hat and a cape, and he has done a great job of directing it.

“Huh? I clearly didn’t get a response to the message I sent you.”

The bartender stands up in slight surprise at the sight.

“Lawless Outlaws.”

Lawbreakers of the wilderness.

Sheriff.

They were the same group that Sehyuk had contacted to ask the innkeeper to speak to.

‘You clearly said that you haven’t received any answers so far.’

That’s how they came to this.

Sehyuk looked at the sheriffs with complicated feelings.

The sheriff ignored the standing bartender and walked towards Sehyuk.

Among them, the one who appears to be the leader takes out a yellow metal badge from his bosom, holds it up, and looks straight at Sehyuk.

“The one who defeated Sorae Susan. Lee Se-hyeok. The crime was that he disrupted the balance of Suwon.”

As soon as he saw that sight, Sehyuk let out a hollow laugh.

“I challenge you to a duel.”

‘What the hell. What kind of people start a fight and make a fuss as soon as they get here?’
