Chapter 216 When did you come in?
The menu Deokchun ordered was Hell Dying Kitchen’s Special III.
The price was considerable, but I saved up quite a bit of money, so this was not a burden.
Hegrick and Park Jae-kyung are outside.
I was thinking of eating in the mountain hut.
“What are you eating in a cramped place? Anyway, if it’s a special set, I’m sure the people who serve it.”
Suggest eating outside Hegrick’s. I decided to do it.
To agree. The scale was quite large when I worked with Alios and Penny before.
There is a blizzard, but I believe they will handle it on their own.
Park Jae-kyung, who is new to Hell Dying Kitchen, has high expectations.
“I’m already pounding, draw it. sold out Try all the business trip buffets at the tower.”
“Take a good look at this opportunity. It will be a good experience.”
“Don’t worry. I said that, and I starved from morning.”
“…Didn’t you eat a whole roast earlier?”
“Isn’t that a snack, Master?”
The time when I raised the corner of my mouth as I watched the two of them having trivial small talk.
“come.”
Hegrick said as he looked into the air.
I couldn’t feel it at first, but after a while…
-Ughhh!
“Nice to meet you VIP customer. My name is Cheki Franken, who is in charge of the 50th floor branch manager.”
The air opened and a group descended.
Did you just come down?
[Safe House (S) Lv.MAX]
“Oh.”
Until using skills to change the whole area.
Boundaries were created to keep out the cold and blizzards.
The floor was also dry, not damp, and the others accompanying them moved quickly to set up a table and cutlery in the kitchenette.
All of this took only 10 seconds to complete.
The NPC at the front bowed politely.
“We have set up for a pleasant meal, so we hope you have a good time.”
[Cheky Franken- NPC]
– The branch manager who manages the 50th floor and below of Helldying Kitchen.
– Perfect service!
-Perfect Calculation!
-Don’t cheat. Terrible things will happen!
Looking at it this far, I wondered if it was just one of the NPCs, but…
‘Why does he look so familiar?’
I’m sure it’s the first time I’ve seen it, but I think I’ve seen similar NPCs.
Cheky Franken.
His skin was white like paper, his two horns had been cut off, and his red hair was braided back.
It’s clothes, but I’m wearing a suit.
where did you see
Ah…..
“The customer wanted to meet you once. Because I heard a story from Gail. As you can see, I am from the 4th Demon Realm.”
“It was a hundred ghosts. Nice to meet you.”
If he noticed it too, he speaks first.
hundred ghosts. It was also among the demons exploited in the labor camp on the 39th floor.
To hear that Gail contacted me… I wonder if the two of them were friends.
Come to think of it, the manager I met for the first time was also a devil. He didn’t seem to be from the 4th Demon Realm, but…
Could Helldying Kitchen be a place made up of demons?
I was curious and asked a question.
“It is not. It consists of various races such as demons, angels, fairies, and beasts. Race has no meaning in front of cooking.”
“Of course it is. Helldying Kitchen is such a place.”
“I feel relieved that you seem to have corrected it Mr. Hegrik.”
Cheky Franken smiles when he sees Hegrik intervening.
Hegrick said he was from here too.
Seeing that you call him ‘Nim’, you must have held a fairly high position.
“You seem to be doing well too.”
“It’s because I learned a lot from Hegrick-nim in many ways.”
“Hahahaha! You flatter a person who is no different from an old man. Look at this Evil Eye. Can I borrow this friend for a while?”
“To provide all services.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Hegrik recklessly dragging him along.
Cheki was embarrassed, but I nodded my head to go.
Checky raises the corner of his mouth, perhaps feeling happy inside.
the two know
“Shall we have fun?”
“great. What do you fill your stomach with? Let’s check how great nobles are.”
After picking up the baguettes in the basket, Park Jae-kyung steps into the kitchenette.
After all, he’s serious about cooking.
As well as powers and personality.
Deokchun is…..
“Aww!”
“Yes, it’s great that our Deokchun is the same.”
He goes up to the table and puts the appetizer in his mouth.
Until one NPC was in charge.
To think that even a frog with the best spirit of service is treated like a guest.
Is this what professionalism is?
I stuck next to Park Jae-kyung. In the past, I wouldn’t have paid much attention to it, but now that I have a cooking skill, I’m going to watch how the experts cook.
The cooking process was also one of the services, so the kitchen was open, and a splendid fire show was shown in the middle.
“It’s a wrist snap. Chef over there, what are those yellow leaves?”
“It is a scented herb that lives on the 73rd floor. It’s spicy, but the aftertaste is bitter and you have to kill it with fire.”
“Oh oh! I mean the 73rd floor. Okay, I remembered.”
The guy who is asking a lot of questions.
The chefs smile softly and answer kindly, as if they don’t hate receiving attention.
what am i
[Fresh Bunker] –
Plants that live in colonies on the upper part of the 50th floor
– Refreshing taste is excellent!
– Stormy diarrhea if you eat a lot!
– Let’s eat in moderation.
[Mama Walnut]
– It’s savory, but it gets greasy.
-If you squeeze oil, you can get premium oil.
[Prickly shark’s tail]
– Elastic skin!
– If you don’t remove the thorn properly, it will get stuck in your throat?
– Good for stamina recovery.
Without asking, he began to gather information through authority.
There are many things I haven’t seen.
Whether it was meat, vegetables, or nuts, I checked it regardless.
Not just figuring out what kind of ingredients to combine.
My head is spinning.
There is no hesitation in the hand because it is a professional.
The effect is obvious, but some are toxic and need to be neutralized, while others are mixed to maximize the effect.
I was concentrating on moving on to the next process if I missed it even for a moment.
-Chiiik
suddenly slowed down the cooking speed.
while controlling the intensity of the fire.
“Helldying Kitchen always provides the best service to customers.”
“Thank you.”
“you’re welcome.”
The chef, realizing I was paying attention, deliberately slowed it down.
Do you care to this extent?
It looks like it will be a pretty fun time.
* * *
From watching the cooking to eating.
Time passed without any regrets.
Hegrick even brought out alcohol and drank it, so I said everything.
I didn’t give it to Deokchun. I don’t know what else to do.
“Ah, it’s amazing here. How did you know this place Thanks to you, I learned a lot and ate well, hyung.”
“Thanks. If you hadn’t invited me, I wouldn’t have gotten my cooking skills and I wouldn’t have called a buffet.”
“That’s right too. hahaha!”
He pats his stomach and laughs heartily.
Park Jae-kyung I feel like this guy is a glutton.
How many bowls are there in front of you?
Chefs are also watching with curious eyes.
“Did you like the meal?”
“It was great.”
The timing of the meal. Cheki, who brought dessert and coffee tea, asks.
“I am glad that VIP liked it. I used some force. I don’t have very good feelings for Maglet.”
The unification war that took place in the 4th Demon Realm.
Deviating from its original purpose, Hwanggwi refused to unite and trampled on other races.
Baek-gwi is one of them, and there’s no way they can get along well.
“Could you give me a moment?”
“sure.”
“You should have received a VIP invitation with your last order. The banquet will be held in about three days. Usually, we inform you a day in advance, but I wanted to inform you directly that I came like this.”
I remember.
Items in your inventory.
[Helldying Kitchen Party Invitation]
-Items given to selected customers
-Taste, drink, and enjoy!
-Enjoy VIP privileges!
I wondered when it would be called, but now it is.
Cheki Franken lowers his head slightly and whispers.
“At the party, each VIP and those who have partnered with each other gather. Among them, there are those who lead the power. It might be a good opportunity. And…”
He hands over the pamphlet.
“We have several events planned. There is also an event where you exchange gifts with the representative, but it is not compulsory, so you can come with a light heart.”
It’s a gift exchange.
It won’t be ordinary things.
“If you bring it, you should take something related to cooking, right? Ingredients, alcohol, or cooking utensils.”
“Most of them are. Personally, I recommend participating. The banquet will be more than what you prepare for your guests.”
to give you a tip
How to get a chance to attend a banquet.
Information viewed by authority.
The calculation is certain, did you mean this?
If you tell me this far, I can’t help but prepare.
besides that
“If you have something to say, say it. Don’t snoop around. Because I care.”
“Uh hmm hmm! is it? Excuse me, but can I go too?”
Park Jae-kyung, who sneaked up to me, asked.
I’m already obsessed with Helldying Kitchen. would like to come
let’s help I also benefited from him.
Without the advice, I didn’t know if I would still be rolling around trying to get Hegrik’s approval.
“I don’t think I’ll be lonely if I have a companion. Is it possible?”
“If my disciple says he’s going, no one will hate it.”
Hegrick also helped with a word.
“It’s impossible in principle, but…”
He rubbed his fingertips as if he was in trouble and looked at Hegrick.
“There are a lot of people who have a hard time rejecting this. I should be able to solve at least one companion on my own. I can’t give you a separate invitation, so you two must be together.”
“Don’t worry about that!”
“Let’s do that.”
Okay, I’m glad it ended well.
With this, the end is over.
“Then I look forward to our next meeting.”
As the service ended, Cheki Franken reached out.
A space that can be organized in an instant.
-uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
The space could be distorted and the NPCs on business trips disappeared.
His exit was as natural as his appearance.
It’s time for me to go too.
“Hegrick, thank you so much.”
“Are you going right away? They said they would teach for a week, but they went straight… Aying.”
“Because I can’t stay still.”
“I know, take it.”
Hegrick throws something.
Is it like a parting gift?
two in total.
One is an old notebook, one is a medal?
It was shabby at first glance, but it wasn’t the information I saw through the Authority.
“This…”
“Whatever it was, didn’t you receive my teaching? You must not disgrace my face.”
[Hegrick’s Basic Recipe]
– Recipe notebook written by NPC Hegrick to lay down the basics
– The foundation must be solid for everything!
[Hegrick’s Disciple Proof Medal]
– A medal proving that you have received Hegrick’s teachings
– Some NPCs may have a crush on you.
He said he would not accept me as a disciple because he said he would leave soon.
Are you a tsundere?
“It’s not just giving. Even though this guy here is strong, he’s dumb. Help me out by your side.”
“teacher!”
Puck and Hegrick pushes Park Jae-kyung towards me.
That means…
“Stop going up now. How long will you be stuck here Didn’t you feel it today? You still have a long way to go.”
“That’s true, but…”
“If you want to go, go. make sure you say it twice Just shut up!”
“Oh little! It’s supposed to create a warm atmosphere, but why?”
As he rolls up his sleeves and takes a position to hit, Park Jae-kyung shrinks.
From a distance, it was just a joke, but I think I understand now.
It’s their goodbye.
“I was supposed to part ways…I packed everything.”
“Good job. Recipes are meaningless to you, so just take the medallion.”
“Ah, in a masculine way. He’s the successor to his master anyway, so that’s enough.”
“I told you not to say that! Don’t listen!”
“Ah! Hit me gently!”
Hegrik, who had been beating Jaekyung Park right away, looked at me.
“That’s him.”
“I know. I’ll keep the successor secret.”
“Thank you.”
“Be healthy.”
So, end with this.
Jaekyung Park and I left the lodge.
* * *
Snow-covered space.
The road you walk is covered in snow.
“Brother, are you going to the Frost Crystal in your later years? It hasn’t even been a month since it came up.”
“I guess so.”
There are two ways to clear the 53rd floor.
hold out for a month
[Leave traces on the Perennial Frost Crystal.]
Finding and leaving traces on the Perennial Frost Crystal.
“It’s me, the portal has already opened, but it’s not there. I will guide you, because I know the way.”
“That’s right. I was learning from Hegrick, so I must have been here for over a month.”
“What is one month? It’s been over 10 years.”
“Longer than expected, what?”
10 years?
“When did you enter the tower?”
