Episode 803 Goblin Rigid Body Plan (8)
Half a day has passed.
Cade opened his eyes faster than expected.
The mana film that split the clearing was absorbed.
Cade let out a breath.
“Haa…”
Mana deepened.
As if he felt the same way, Cade opened and closed his hands again and again.
“You finally woke up.”
“yes. It’s all thanks to Mr. Ray.”
He said he couldn’t spit on a smiling face.
In fact, Ray also scratched the back of his head and said nothing.
When the curtain disappeared, Deris, who had been suffering like a pooped puppy, came running in a month.
“Congratulations on your achievement.”
“thank you.”
“I know it’s rude to ask as soon as the work is over, but can you gauge the level of achievement?”
At that question, Cade laughed awkwardly.
“haha. It’s difficult. I am still not able to control my body, so can I discuss my achievements?”
I mean, I just woke up, so I don’t know.
Deris replied bitterly.
“That would be too. I’m sorry. That was a rude question.”
“no. Thank you for watching over us.”
As soon as the conversation seemed to have ended, a familiar face approached.
“Congratulations~”
moment.
Ray’s fist flew toward the top of her head.
By the time she noticed the strangeness and raised her head, it was already too late to avoid it.
Baka-!
The heavy shock she felt in her head gave her legs an instant.
“Uh…”
Marquis Simon of high prestige.
Even in the room, the mind of all the members of the left half went out of their minds at the fact that he struck her on the top of her head without hesitation, which could be called a golden jade leaf.
On the other hand, Ray, the assailant, felt like the congestion was finally resolved.
“Now I feel refreshed. I am relieved child.”
He, who still had the special class incident in his heart, patted his hands and said.
Hit on the head before she even recognized the attack, she stared blankly at Ray.
‘I didn’t feel the presence.’
I was confident in my skills.
He thought that no one could stop him within the Deungwoldan if he set his mind to it.
However, in the end, I couldn’t even avoid his fist, let alone block it.
Did he take the continuous gaze as a sign of protest?
Ray smiled and raised his fist again.
“If it’s interesting, can you hit me one more time?”
At that, Lady Simon touched the top of her head with a cold smile and said,
“…It’s a mysterious fist~”
“Because I’m originally a bit of a mysterious person.”
After dismissing it with one word, he patted Cade on the back.
“Come on, let’s go eat soon. Are you shooting today?”
“I see. But…”
‘Is it really okay to leave it like that?’ That question was dismissed by Ray, who said he was fine while pushing the stretching back.
There might be retaliation, but I don’t know why I’m so self-confident.
When the two disappeared in the clearing, Deris looked at them and asked.
“Ugh. Are you okay?”
“…Did you hit me…?”
Unlike usual, it is a voice without a smile.
Could it be that I am doing something wrong?
No, no matter what, it won’t happen right away.
As it is a principle within the rank-and-file group not to make an issue of rank, I won’t move recklessly.
But I don’t know what will happen when Baybon is over.
‘You touched the beehive. It’s your mistake.’
Deris silently prayed for Ray to rest in peace.

“Is there a wallet this time?”
“ha ha ha. Do not worry. I will buy it with the meaning of my last apology and this time thanks.”
He proudly put his wallet on the table and said.
It’s more believable this time!
As before, Ray raised his hand and spoke to the clerk.
“Bring all the expensive things here!”
I can’t believe the guy who grabbed my pants and begged me to cut them off a little while ago came back and asked me to bring something expensive.
After thinking about it, the chef came up with a dish that was reasonably priced.
“This tavern boasts wild boar stew.”
Appetizingly cut meat.
Ray, sniffing the appetizing scent, recognized it at once.
“A stew made of fruit.”
It’s like a mixture of tomatoes and a small amount of bananas.
Tomatoes and bananas in this high mountain. Clearly it cost a lot of money.
The chef asked in surprise.
“Can you find out?”
“Everyone knows.”
The recipe itself is similar to Cain Chuo, a famous Vietnamese dish, but it is a little different in that meat is used instead of fish and only the sweet taste is used instead of sweet and sour taste.
In addition, spices were used to capture the smell of wild boar meat well.
Just by looking at it, you could tell that this chef was first-rate.
“I made it with a mixture of tomatoes and bananas. If you season it with pepper, it will lose its sweet taste, so I used chicken broth and corn to make it light and flavored it with ginger and red pepper.”
“That is correct.”
At Ray’s clear words, the chef as well as Cade were surprised.
“great. I knew you had a high discernment, but I didn’t expect you to have knowledge in cooking…”
“I just learned it over your shoulder.”
He shook his hand and gave the compliment roughly, but the chef was very moved by that appearance.
‘People with knowledge and humility are rare. This man knows how to look and how to bow.’
I’ve been cooking here for over twenty years.
However, although there are customers who say that it is delicious, only a handful of people recognize his dish and eat it.
I can’t afford to serve more than wild boar stew to such a person!
Thinking so, the chef suddenly ran to the kitchen.
Then, moving his hands as if possessed, he made several dishes and brought them to their table.
“Babon’s specialty horn rabbit steak and Blue Goose’s stuffed eggs, which are laid eggs once a month. I won’t take money, so please tell me what you think.”
He spoke with twinkling eyes, and he even looked desperate.
How on earth would it have been if I met only guests who were not like guests here?
It’s not that I don’t understand.
The chef couldn’t leave his seat in a village built in the middle of a mountain, so he must have been unable to go around to accumulate knowledge for a while.
“thank you. then.”
The first thing I picked up was the stuffed egg.
The soft mustard spreads as soon as you put it in your mouth, creating a deep flavor.
Blue Goose eggs have strong elasticity unlike other eggs or abalone, and thanks to the chef’s proper cooking, the moderately chewy texture melts in your mouth.
“It is delicious.”
“ha ha ha. Try this too.”
“Where then.”
Horn rabbit steak cut into bite-size pieces.
If the stuffed egg was enough as an appetizer to whet the appetite before a meal, the steak cooked with horn rabbit was literally the best main.
There are many cooks who can’t handle rabbit meat because it has a stronger odor than expected.
However, this dish corrected not only the smell, but also the unique sloppy texture.
Every time you chew, the well-soaked gravy leaks out, so even the feeling of dryness is gradually erased.
“It is the best. To the point where I want to learn the recipe.”
At Ray’s rave reviews, the chef laughed brightly as if a woman of a flowery age blushed in embarrassment.
Mmm.
Seeing that smile makes me feel strangely losing my appetite.
He forced his gaze away and focused on the food.
“I’ve been too intrusive. I will go and see.”
The chef, feeling much better, walked lightly into the kitchen.
Cade, who was watching his back, asked.
“From swordsmanship to cooking. I respect you.”
“What have you got? Rather, let’s eat. All the food that came out will be cold.”
Heehee laughed and played with the fork nonstop, but somehow it seemed well-organized.
It’s like a look that doesn’t go against etiquette even though it looks ravenous.
There was a sense of difference.
‘Did he even take classes from nobles?’
I’ve heard that children from merchant families sometimes pay a lot of money to take lessons from nobles in order to build relationships with them.
Maybe Ray is like that too?
Cade thought so for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.
How can a person who wastes even the cost of cooking at a restaurant pay such a huge amount?
Perhaps he was overthinking it.
“Eat as much as you like.”
“I still think so!”
he didn’t know
That the guy who was savoring the food in front of his eyes, pretending to be a beggar, was in fact Taesangdanju of the upper half of the half-man, called the best in the continent.
* * *
Lawfield Plain, where the Allies briefly retreated.
In the midst of it, the screams continued day after day.
“Aaaaaagh! Kill the Lord!”
“Don’t be rude! Aren’t you still patient!”
A dozen goblins lying on their seats and a lich pouring out magic energy over them.
Even if you look at it casually, it was a picture that was never normal.
Zeke, who was next to him, said as if he was worried.
“I think you’d better stop now.”
“Not yet! still far away! Hold on! Hold on and earn the right to become a Chimera!”
Lich, stained with madness, stood bloodshot in his eyes.
I don’t know what the hell I’m doing, but this is finally the second day.
In just two days, he was pouring his demonic energy on over 200 goblins, but this guy was not tired and didn’t sleep.
“how is it! how is it! What do you see!”
“I don’t know! Aaaaagh! help me!”
Even the goblin’s screams didn’t bother him at all.
No, on the contrary, this level of sound only excites me more as if I am used to it.
If there is one thing that is fortunate, it is that there has not been a case of goblins who are strong in mana being encroached on by demonic energy and dying.
Even if it looks like that, are you controlling it?
“Concentrate! Concentrate and feel it! It is invisible because it is obsessed with pain! It means struggling to live!”
“That’s why I’m asking for help! Khehe!”
Several goblins eventually passed out without being able to overcome the shock of Magi.
At such times, the lich stunned the goblins and looked behind him and shouted.
“next!”
“Ugh…”
“Yes, you go first.”
“what are you talking about! you go!”
Everyone trembled in fear and refused to go, so Rich dragged his hand.
Magi surged up, and soon, along with the wind, as many goblins were lacking, they were brought before the sacrificial table(?) where the ritual(?) was performed.
“Save…”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Again, his demonic energy poured into the goblins.
It’s only been two days since the ceremony began.
In that short period of time, the pride of the goblin warriors was waning little by little.
