Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking

Episode 55. Leveling up was the easiest

“More more!”

“More?”

“Yes. More.”

“But this is too much!”

Lemon kicked several goblin huts around him with his feet and even struck them with his sword.

Of course, the goblins inside jumped out in surprise.

Her movement speed increased by 18 thanks to the effect of the potato pancake I made, and she ran back and forth like a breeze.

As a result, dozens of goblins were chasing after her.

“Wide area aggro!”

“Okay!”

Caang! Caang!

Lemon struck her own shield several times with her drawn sword.

A typical wide-area provocation skill of a shield knight.

Her expression on most of the goblins who were chasing her became even more threatening.

On the days when she was caught doing this, she was very prey.

“Now that’s enough, go round and round there and keep the aggro!”

“Here?”

“Oh! There!”

She moved as I told her to.

I said to the two girls who were staring at the lemon with their mouths open beside her.

“Now, it’s your turn. Don’t be afraid to gather in large numbers. They’re weak goblins anyway.”

“Hey, wait a minute! We don’t have AOE skills, mister!”

“I know. You can just use normal attacks.”

“But then, sister…”

“If you’re worried about lemons, move quickly! Don’t wait.”

“Oh, okay.”

“Melissa also hunts those who come within range with magic arrows one by one. Drink the potion as soon as you run out of mana.”

“Yes!”

At first, the two girls were puzzled.

However, they soon launched an attack.

Puong!

Mumu’s greatsword was swung, and Melissa’s fire arrow exploded.

“Ugh…”

“What is it? Mister, why do they die in one shot?”

“It’s just that you guys are strong. What are you doing? Keep attacking. Catch them all so Lemon can rest.”

“Oh, yes!”

The sweep was instantaneous.

It only took about 3 minutes to hunt dozens of goblins.

Excluding the time it took Lemon to lure the goblins to one place, it took less than a minute.

That’s because I was knocked down in one shot.

Even if it was magic or a great sword, the weak goblins were knocked down.

Why?

That’s because of the buff, of course.

In addition to the blessings I bestowed upon you, even a fraudulent cooking buff.

Even the equipment is of the highest quality available in Salem.

The monsters in this area are already no match for the two girls.

I don’t know if it’s a boss.

‘Guys, the last one I dealt with was the raid boss…’

It seems that they have not yet felt how strong they have become.

I assure you, Mumu and Melissa have become much stronger than when they defeated that ‘catastrophe’.

“Now, we’re going to keep hunting like this. You know how? Now, in order to save time, Lemon drives the monsters from the right side, while you guys hunt them one by one in this area. When it’s over, catch the guys Lemon brought and repeat! Okay? Now then, let’s go!”

This time I moved too.

It’s not as good as Lemon, but if it’s a goblin, I can drive mobs to some extent.

‘One day is enough for level 10.’

What is a day, I thought the next two hours would be enough.

There are more than 5 characters that I personally developed in Emperor of Dungeon.

Wouldn’t it be 20 times if you include the things the other guys did?

Raising a character from level 1 to level 60, right before entering the Nightmare Dungeon, was an extremely easy task that was just boring for me.

‘Of course, the level of difficulty is different now.’

You must never die, and you must move your body directly, not a joystick or keyboard.

The level of mental strength consumed and the degree of fatigue experienced are different.

‘There’s nothing I can’t do.’

“Melissa! Drink the potion beforehand!”

“Yes!”

There is no time to waste.

Since we’ve decided to raise these guys’ levels, we’re just helping them grow at the fastest and most efficient rate.

“Hey! Mister, I’ve already leveled up!”

“Don’t stop, keep hunting!”

“Yes!”

Shortly thereafter, Melissa’s level rose by one.

It was incredible speed.

‘Well, back in the day when I was growing up, I ate cash at most, but the food we eat now is much better than that.’

Where is that?

The level of the buff I cast has also changed.

At the time, was there ever a time when a Resurrection Priest would give you a joke?

Usually healers do it.

And even if there was, it would have been a blessing shuttle that did not properly invest in one attribute.

“Wow!”

“Fire Arrow!”

Melissa and Mumu definitely got stronger.

Although he has only basic skills because he has not yet reached level 10, it is not an exaggeration to say that the status value increased by various buffs is the level of an ordinary level 30 to level 40 player.

Thanks to that, the attack power of each shot was beyond imagination.

‘If I hunt the Calamity again now, I might be able to cut the battle time in half?’

“Mister! I just raised a level!”

“You don’t have to tell me one by one! It’s natural. When you reach 10, tell me then!”

“Yes!”

I smiled as I gathered the goblins together.

It was a strange feeling.

It’s not me who grows up, so why am I so proud of it?

There was no boredom like before.

Looking at the happy faces of the children who have improved their level made me feel better for no reason.

“The next goblin is coming! Get ready!”

“Yes!”

After being so engrossed in hunting for a while, Mumu and Melissa reached level 10 in no time.

We reached our goal much sooner than I expected.

“Now, gather everyone. I’ll use the party return spell.”

“Going right away?”

“Yes. I told you to decide your career ahead of time. Are you still there?”

“No! I’ve decided! I’ll continue as a greatsword warrior. I like the spear you recommended, but I think I’d rather be familiar with it.”

“Yes. You make your own decisions. So what about Melissa?”

“Is it okay if I try Melissa’s special element?”

“Of course. It’s hard to train special element wizards, but they’re a class that shines later. Rather, it’s an illusion.”

“Then I’ll do it!”

The Mage class is famous for having the most diverse and complex skill tree.

A magician specializing in attributes that focuses on only one attribute, such as ice or fire.

A curse mage who invests skills mainly in mezegi like curses.

And a special element wizard who must master all the basic skills of all the elements Melissa wants to do.

A special element mage is a mage that requires all of the basic magic of the four attributes of fire, ice, earth, and wind to be invested.

Because of this, you have to grow up to level 40 with only the basic magic of each attribute, so the level of training is extremely high.

Moreover, it is almost like throwing away 40 skill points on basic skills, so it shows extreme inefficiency in the beginning.

Then why do you deliberately walk on such a path of hardship?

That’s because there is a special attribute magic that can only be learned by mastering the basic magic of all attributes.

Commonly referred to as lightning magic or arcane magic.

‘Well, nurturing is hard. It’s enough if Lemon and I help. Wouldn’t it be nice to think of the later?’

Aside from that, a shadow mage who handles shadows.

One of the characteristics of the mage class is that it has the most types of skills and can be cultivated in various forms, such as wizards specializing in summoning that handle golems or familiars.

There are different types of special element wizards depending on what the final magic is aimed at, but that was a problem that could be considered later.

If you can’t enter the Abyss anyway, you won’t be able to learn even if you decide on the final skill.

“Then return right away?”

“Yes!”

“Gogo!

In an instant, we moved in front of the Palais temple.

Unlike the players, the inhabitants of this world had to visit the temple in order to learn skills.

* * *

One of the cheapest pubs in Palais.

Because of the high pitched voices of drunken people, it was a place where even conversations right next to each other could not be heard.

In such a place, two men wearing black robes that were so deep that people couldn’t recognize them were quietly exchanging conversations.

“Did you hear? That cook said he had been to the Goblin Mountains.”

“I heard that you are helping to raise the children you take with you…”

“Isn’t that a good thing? I think we can shorten our plan by a lot. We don’t have to go to great lengths to get them out of the city.”

A man had a mean smile on his face.

“Hmm…But you never know when or where you’re going to hunt again. You can’t chase them around the clock.”

“Don’t worry about that. We’ve already figured out our next destination. It’s an oak field.”

“Oak field…?”

Another man asked with a surprised face.

“You mean there already?”

“Yes. The girls next to him seem to have reached level 10. So they will be leaving Salem soon. The oak field is in Bramha, not Salem.”

“Isn’t the orc field a dungeon where you need to be at least level 30 to go there? Are you really going there with children who have just reached level 10? Is that information clear?”

“Because there are high-level healers and tanks next to you, you must be confident. There are courteous buff dishes.”

“Chit…”

‘What is a healer…’

Kim Min-cheol bit his molars tightly.

He had no intention of hiding his feelings.

‘What is that bastard’s cuisine…’

If you go to the plaza in front of the temple, it’s all noisy talking about his cooking.

No, even if you don’t have to go there, whether it’s a bar or an inn, there’s nowhere in Palais that doesn’t talk about him.

“How do you want to do it right this time?”

“…I have to. I can’t keep chasing him forever. I need to see the end as soon as possible.”

“What do you say about your co-workers? At the bar last time, opinions seemed to be divided…”

Kim Min-chul’s eyebrows twitched at Dylan’s useless question.

“I’m the only one moving. There’s no need to get my teammates’ hands dirty.”

“Well, that’s good. It’s them, not us, who actually move anyway.”

“Can I really trust them?”

“It’s okay. That cook doesn’t have a guild yet. The only case they won’t touch is if the target belongs to a large guild. …”

Kim Min-cheol spoke cynically.

“As I said at the time, the cost of hiring a contractor is exactly half and half.”

“That’s right, of course.”

The two of them were smiling only in a very formal way.

With that face intact, he shook hands with the other person.

‘But come on, that bastard, what are you going to do by leveling up that level NPC?’

Kim Min-cheol was still very suspicious of that.
