full-bodied embarrassment.
full-bodied embarrassment.
He suddenly asked me if I was a priest and asked me to catch a worshiper of an evil god? something a little fishy
It is true that priests are more likely to be stronger than ordinary people, but that does not mean that all priests are specialized in combat.
What’s even more strange is that this plump man seemed convinced that I was capable of defeating at least one or two ordinary demon worshipers.
“What’s your name?”
The man twitched his chin and burst out laughing.
“As Priest Marnak noticed, I am Axinum, the owner of the Fluttering Carp right here.”
“I don’t remember revealing my name…”
“Even though I have a dull body, I have a fairly bright ear and I have a lot of ‘curiosity’. You need to know a lot of things to improve your cooking skills!”
Axinum put a lot of emphasis on the word curiosity. As if he wants me to notice something.
There is only one curiosity I know of. no way?
I lowered my body and whispered in his ear the truth I realized.
“Are you also of the same kind as the ‘fumbling curiosity’?”
In an instant, an unfamiliar light flashed in the chubby man’s eyes. He quickly grabbed my hand and led me somewhere.
“There is a suitable place for me to talk about this, so I will guide you there.”
“But if I don’t go upstairs, the Breme Police will be suspicious.”
“Are you two friends? To me, it didn’t seem like that kind of relationship.”
“Um…”
I was mistaken for a moment because we went together naturally, but then I didn’t have to report every move to Braim. I just need to get my stuff back anyway.
“I think so. please guide me I will listen.”
“Good idea. Marshal Braim must be very busy asking the clerks questions about Mr. Lubor.”
‘And you probably won’t find out anything,’ he added softly. Axinum led me to the basement, the exact opposite of the upper floor that Braim was heading for.
Since arriving in the capital, every time I feel like I’m being led underground, it must be because of my mood.
Numerous ingredients were arranged in an orderly manner in the cool basement, reminding us that the upper floor is a restaurant. Axinum lightly crossed the lined array of ingredients with her bloated body and guided me through one door.
When he arrived at the thick stone gate, he turned around and opened his mouth again.
“Now that you have bitten someone, let me introduce myself again. As Priest Marnak guessed, I am the so-called demon, ‘full-bodied affliction’. As you can see, my hobby in this Bing life is cooking.”
The devil’s full stomach patted his fat belly and burst into laughter.
“Priest Marnak will never know how much food he has to eat in a day to maintain his body.”
“Did my struggling curiosity listen to my story?”
“you’re right! The son of corruption who thought only that the price had already been cut off! Gus’ demon slayer! It is really exciting to see Priest Marnac, the savior of the evil spirits and the savior of Eradico!”
Are demons really everywhere and nowhere? When you want to forget, the devil comes out.
“These are too many modifiers for me to lose. It is also a name that is mixed with exaggeration and misunderstanding. I’ll ask straight forward. What the hell are you talking about asking me to catch a worshiper of an evil god?”
A full-bodied Gonyok pointed to the door behind him and put on a troubled expression.
“I am asking you to solve the problem behind this door. I don’t know why Priest Marnac is looking for a man named Lubor, but he became a worshiper of evil spirits in one day and came to visit me. They even know that I am the devil, even though I don’t know who I heard it from.”
It saved me the trouble of finding Lubor to be here.
“What do you mean it’s covered in something?”
“At first glance, it seemed that he was possessed by a sword made of a strange ore. Right now, Lubor is half eaten by the thoughts remaining in the sword. If I don’t quickly separate the sword from him, there’s probably not even a trace of his original personality left.”
As soon as I heard the story of the full stomach, I had only one thought.
What the hell was Master trying to give me? Is that really a good sword to take? I should have known it since the name Despair.
“Then why did you call me here instead of taking care of it yourself?”
“Priest, Priest Marnak. look at my body In the eyes of Priest Marnak, do you think this body is fit for a fistfight with someone?”
Standing in place and looking down, her stomach protruded so much that she couldn’t even see the top of her feet, and her body dripping with sweat when she moved even the slightest, definitely didn’t look suitable for battle.
However, it seemed that there were quite strong muscles hidden under the flesh that made up his body. Otherwise, it would be impossible to cook all day with that bloated body.
“Devils often transform and fight well, so why don’t we fight like that?”
“I can’t.”
A full-bodied, troubled gaze gazed at me passionately with determined eyes.
“The feeling of a heated fan. The smell of ripening ingredients. creaking sound. In the process, colors reveal their own colors. Finally a taste to make sure everything is in place! Cooking is an art that requires the use of all five senses!”
The devil, who showed off his culinary skills, grabbed my hand.
“Priest Marnak! I don’t want to lose anything in my current state in order to devote myself to cooking! First of all, I really hate fighting someone directly. Not very good either. So, I would like you to take pity on me and remove the Louvre beyond that stone gate. If you do, I will serve the priest the best dish I can serve for free!”
Two eyes shining brightly. I pushed away a little the burdened stomach that was approaching me.
“Anyway, this was the car I was going to take because there was business for a man named Lubor. Even if you don’t cling to it like this, I’ll take it, so please calm down.”
“I see! How grateful I am for this! Still, I can’t just get help, so when things go well, I’ll treat you to a full course meal!”
It’s a famous restaurant, so it would be perfect if you brought your mother to taste it.
“Would it be all right if I brought my colleagues along for that treat? In fact, I cannot taste it because I have lost my sense of taste.”
“What?!”
The startled demon looked at me with very pitiful eyes. With a little bit of pity
“You can’t taste it… that’s really sad. By the way, can’t you even smell it?”
“It smells pretty good.”
“Your sense of touch is also alive?”
“yes.”
A full-fledged Gonyok held on to his plump chin and pondered for a long time on what to do. After a while, he smiled meaningfully.
“I just came up with a few dishes that even Priest Marnak could fully enjoy. Hopefully, it would be perfect if you could take Luvor to serve me the dishes I came up with!”
I can’t taste it. Is there a dish that I can enjoy?
I smiled and nodded politely.
“I look forward to that very much. Anyway, what did Lubor want to come here for?”
Gonyok, who was full, muttered something to himself, saying, “That would be fine, and if the sense of touch were alive, the dish would be fine, too.” Then he came to his senses at my question.
“Are you talking about Luvor? He just came over here, guessed I was the devil, and offered to make a deal. Well, asking about the current state of the world seemed like someone who had been locked up somewhere for about a hundred years. Actually, I might be able to help with that much, but… that wasn’t the real problem.”
“then?”
In an instant, the two eyes of agony, which were full, sank heavily. He answered my question in an annoyed voice.
“The real problem was what he offered me as a condition of the deal. He used my demonic pod as a pod and dared to hold the restaurant and the customers hostage! If you don’t want to lose what you’ve built up so far after being revealed as a demon, you’re telling yourself to cooperate! How could anyone be so shameless?”
Seeing the demon swinging its plump fists, it seemed that Lubor really touched the devil’s wrath.
“My other countrymen might make a deal with him for how cocky and funny he is, but I am different! I will never do business with anyone who dares to take my precious things hostage!”
“So, did you ask me to wait inside for now?”
“The priest is right. So, while I was contemplating how many suitable swordsmen to find, Priest Marnak, whom I had only heard about, came to our store.
I only heard about it, but it was good that I recognized my face at once or any other trivial things. If the devil had only brought me here, he must have thought I could solve this problem alone enough for him to calculate.
“Let’s deal with Luvor first and then we’ll talk.”
“As I’ve heard, you’re an exciting and cool person! All right. We will open the door right away! It’s just…”
He paused for a moment, then glanced at me.
“The basement of my building has good soundproofing, but it’s not because it’s built with very hard materials. I would really appreciate it if you break a little less when fighting.”
“I will try.”
I wonder if that one word was enough.
“thank you! Then come on in! I’ll wait upstairs!”
When the devil manipulated something, the thick stone door opened with a rattling sound. Behind the door was a very short hallway and another door.
As I entered, the stone door was closed again, probably for soundproofing. As I opened another door across the hallway, I saw a man sitting in a huge room.
Somewhat drowsy impression. Gray hair that has lost its color in a strange light interspersed with shiny blonde hair. A face that looks like someone in their late twenties should be given generously.
I didn’t know Lubor’s face, but I realized at once that the author was that Lubor. Because in his hand was a blue sword that looked just like Master’s sword.
He slowly raised his head and looked at me with cloudy eyes, then tilted his head.
“You… are not that pig devil.”
“It is very rude to call a person a pig. And from my point of view, the devil isn’t a pig, he’s just a person with an exceptionally good appearance.”
“If you don’t call something steamed after eating it, what do you call it?”
Rubor removed his slanted legs and sat up properly.
“Did the pig ask you to get rid of me? What a shameful pig indeed. What can you do?”
He slowly got up from his chair.
“I have no choice but to cut you down and make the pig devil realize how useless he is.”
“The sword in your hand was supposed to be a gift for me, so I want you to return it soon.”
When I pointed at the sword, he glanced at the sword in his hand and burst out laughing.
“Are you saying you know what this is?”
“I don’t know.”
“Then this sword is too much for you.”
“Do you know?”
“…?”
With a clicking sound, the bracelet on my right arm stretched and covered my right hand. He then grabbed the butcher who had protruded from his cracked palm.
I smiled brightly.
“Whether or not the item was too much for me is not a question for a mere shoplifter to discuss.”
A thick valley dug above Lubor’s forehead.
“Now you dare call me a petty thief…”
Why aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
He let out a scream as if chewing on the butcher’s words. I held the butcher up and smiled broadly.
“I’m going to test how useful my present is. Please try hard as much as possible so that I don’t break the sword and eat it.”
