Chapter 108: The Birth of the School of Fast Eaters

Another seed had bore some fruits. But this time, instead of a pig it was another animal. It was none other than a cow.
“Eumooooooooooo!”
The unknown seeds continued to bore fruit one after another.
“Cluck, cluck!”
“Meeeeeee, meeeee!”
The next thing that came out were chickens and sheeps.
“Wow…… I want to take that seed home with me……”
Minhyuk was in awe and admiration.
How can these seeds be so groundbreaking?!
He stopped digging on the cliffs as he walked towards the fields.
“Heave-ho!”
Minhyuk reached his hands out towards the pig that was hanging from the stem of the plant that grew out of the seed. The plant surprisingly reached an outstanding height of 2m.
“Ho?”
This is quite a convenient system.
Then, he reached out for the cow that was hanging next to him.
“Special cow? Ah……!”
Minhyuk remembered that his intermediate farming skill would give him a chance to pick something special whenever he picks or harvests things. However, it did not seem to have much of an effect when he was digging. In other words, this was just something that would have an effect on crops and plants.
He quickly checked the details about the ribeye steak that he had just harvested.
“……OMG.”
Minhyuk was about to burst in tears from the sorrow that he felt when he read those words. He couldn’t believe that he would not be able to taste the things that he raised and nurtured!
I bought ox-bone soup but I couldn’t eat it, what’s the difference between this and sorrow?!
“My life……”
But he soon shook his head to dispel this thought. Once he fed the monsters he would definitely get precious ingredients!
He quickly harvested the things that grew out of the seeds. Then, he hunted around to look for the first monster to feed.
Not long after, he saw a ruckus.
The Orc Tribe Leader was leaning weakly against the wall, he was stunned when a crazy person(?) suddenly came and stopped in front of him.
Not long after, the human began to grill pork, then he picked a meat up with the chopsticks. What was surprising was the fact that the man reached out with his other hand to stop his hand that was holding the chopsticks.
“Kghk! There’s nothing I can do. Right hand! It’s part of the process so I can eat God’s dishes. Ugh. Ever since I was born, I never knew that the day would come when I feed others with my own hands……!”
The Orc Tribe Leader watched him as tears welled up from his eyes. It was as if he was filled with a deep sorrow.
‘Chwiiiiik. He, he’s really a crazy guy……’
Minhyuk looked extremely sad and regretful as he reached out and placed the well-grilled pork near the Orc Tribe Leader’s mouth. The Orc Tribe Leader quickly snapped at the dangling meat in front of it. However, the Orc Tribe Leader did not eat it and…
“……”
The meat was slowly falling on the floor!
The madman quickly drew his sword out.
“How dare you throw away meat! Apologize to Piggy-nim!”
The Orc Tribe Leader was completely taken aback when he saw the man almost chop his head off with the sword in his hands.
“Chwiiiiik! Crazy hu…… No. Handsome human……! Chwiiik, us orcs, chwiiiik, we don’t eat cooked meat……!”
The madman tilted his head in confusion when he heard its words.
“Huh?”
Minhyuk, who was confused for a moment, suddenly understood what the Orc Tribe Leader meant.
‘No one would think that it was strange for a mantis to eat a grasshopper in here.’
Every living being has a different preference for the food that they would eat. Just like himself.
The ruler of the jungle, the elephant, despite its huge body was still a herbivore.
‘Ah. Maybe I jumped to a conclusion, stupid me!’
Minhyuk came to a strange realization and pondered deeply over it.
“So you only eat raw meat?”
“Chwiiiik. Y, yeah. Handsome human… I also want to eat so badly. It was my mistake that the meat fell, chwiiiik I’m sorry!”
“Hmmm……”
Minhyuk nodded his head as his mind flew as he thought of the meal that he could feed the Orc Tribe Leader with.
‘The rump……’
The rump was a meat part that could be eaten raw, it was just like the part that he ate before when he ate yukhoe.
He quickly pulled out the whole rump and proceeded to season it as he made a meat sashimi. He prepared the sauce and the rump separately and handed it over to the Orc Tribe Leader.
“Chwiiik, chwiiik. I’m going to eat. Chwiik, chwiiik.”
Minhyuk had high expectations for this dish.
‘Delicious meat sashimi……!’
Although he did not cut it well for the orc, it would still definitely taste good.
The Orc Tribe Leader hurriedly bit on the meat with its yellowed teeth then it quickly tore of the meat as he mumbled.
“Chwiiiiik, delicious. Chwiik……!”
Then Minhyuk spoke…
“Try dipping it in this sauce.”
“Chwiiiiik? Th, then……”
Minhyuk had a strange sense of vicarious satisfaction(?) as he watched the orc eat.
If it were me then I would definitely dip it in the meat sashimi sauce!
The Orc Tribe Leader carefully dipped the meat in the sauce that Minhyuk made.

“Chew, chew!”
It first tasted the savory flavor of the sesame oil. Then, once it chewed on it more, it could taste the sweet and spicy taste spreading in its mouth followed by the chewy and soft texture of the rump.
The Orc Tribe Leader looked at Minhyuk and the rump in its hands alternatively. It couldn’t believe that there was a taste as heavenly as this.
“De, delicious…… Human, chwiiiik. I, I’ve never eaten anything this delicious in my whole life……!”
“I knew you’d like it!”
If the orcs could not eat cooked food then all he had to do was feed them with the raw dishes. The Orc Tribe Leader chomped on the meat with satisfaction plastered on its face.
Then, a notification rang.
It was a special way of rewarding. He would be able to obtain EXP, gold and items at the time when he hunted Orc Tribe Leaders. In addition, if they were satisfied, the rewards and compensation rate would go up. When he hunted the Orc Tribe Leader before, the reward was about 170, 000 gold so his reward increased by 30% this time around. The same was also true for the EXP acquisition rate.
However, no matter how high these rewards were, Minhyuk was still clearly disappointed.
“W, what’s this?! Why aren’t there any ingredients coming out?! Heung!”
User Minhyuk looked utterly disappointed!
Team Leader Park and Lee Minhwa of the Special Users Management Team looked at his figure bitterly.
“There’s such a huge amount of rewards in his journey ahead but he is so disappointed because there was no ingredient that came out……”
“That user, doesn’t he know what those rewards meant?”
“No. He knows. That user is extremely smart, you know?”
The rewards he had received would have been shocking for the other users if they ever caught wind of this. The only reason was because the paradise of monsters was inhabited by many monsters of different levels. From the Lv30 orcs to Lv350 wyverns. There were even monsters that would break a normal user’s common sense.
User Minhyuk was now at Lv160. But usually, only users at around Lv300 would be able to get this much EXP whether they be hunting or doing tasks, right? It was a huge increase to his EXP.
“And that’s not all. There’s still the item drops.”
What was even monstrous was the item drop. There were a variety of named monsters in that place. Whenever a user would hunt rare monsters, the rare items would only be dropped randomly and the chances of getting a unique item drop was also possible but the probability was abysmal. The same was true for unique monsters, users would randomly get unique items and they would be able to get epic artifacts at a very low probability rate.
Team Leader Park continued to watch the monitor as he murmured to himself.
“There’s even a legendary monster in there.”
Minhyuk shook his head as he tried to dispel the sadness in his sore heart.
‘No, I have only fed one as of now.’
The more I feed, the more chances I get on receiving an ingredient.
He desperately tried to comfort himself as he prepared the rump and the meat sashimi sauce. Then, he proceeded to give it out to the orcs.
“Chwiiik, chwiiik. It’s really delicious. Chwiiiik!”
“Chwiiik. Why is it so delicious? Chwiiik. This is my first time eating something like this!”
“Chwiiik. You’re crying now? Chwiik!”
Minhyuk’s lips curled into a fatherly smile as he watched the orcs enjoy their delicious meat.
But then… he was shocked still.
‘N, no. I’m not the one that’s eating so why am I smiling like this?!’
Was this exactly what the Food God felt before? My heart feels so comfortable and happy that I even want to give them another spoonful.
‘Anyway, eating is still the best for me!’
Minhyuk did not feel depressed anymore but he still thought that eating was the best thing for him.
The rewards were quickly reaped and harvested!
In no time at all, the orcs that had already eaten had become plump and chubby. They had originally eaten the Wouldn’t Get Hungry for 50 years but the effect had already worn out so they were almost starved to death. However, they had eaten the food that Minhyuk prepared for them right now so they wouldn’t starve again.
At that moment, Minhyuk heard a different set of notifications.
Minhyuk did a great job in feeding the orcs. Perhaps, the ingredient reward would only be given depending on the ‘fullness’ of the monsters.
He quickly checked the information of the mackerel.
“Wow……!”
Minhyuk was completely surprised.
Was this the salted mackerel that was salted with the hundred-year-old salt?
Just thinking about it was making his mouth water.
A well-done and sizzling salted mackerel that was fresh from the grill. He could tear apart the plump and crispy salted mackerel with his chopsticks. Then he could pick it’s white flesh and dip it in soy sauce with wasabi before taking a bite.
“Chew, chew!”
Minhyuk chewed as if he really placed a bite in his mouth.
Once he placed it in his mouth, he would be able to taste and be amazed with the juicy and salty flavor of the chubby mackerel. And if he dipped the mackerel in soy sauce with wasabi, he would definitely taste the amazing harmony of the flavors. He would definitely be able to finish 100 bowls of rice in a blink of an eye.
The ingredients of a home cooked meal just like what my mom made for me! That menu will definitely keep the rice going in my stomach!
‘As expected of the Food God, he really knows how to eat……!”
Minhyuk was so amazed. He thought that he really should quickly fill their fullness stat as quickly as possible.
Then, the Orc Tribe Leader approached him.
“Chwiiiik. Handsome human……! It’s really delicious. Chwiik, chwiik……!”
“Chwiiik, human! I really ate well!”
The orcs greeted Minhyuk energetically.
In a way, these monsters were no different from humans. If it’s delicious then they would like the person who gave it to them.
“Chwiiiik. I’d like to give you something in return, but we don’t have anything that we could give. Chwiiik. All we could say is our thanks! Chwiiiiiik!”
Perhaps they did not know that Minhyuk was able to receive rewards by feeding them.
Then…
A brilliant idea passed through Minhyuk’s head.
‘This…… Perhaps I will be able to fill their fullness with this?’
At this moment… his sly eating antenna was suddenly activated.
PR’s corner!
Oh boy, Minhyuk’s cooking up something. I mean, well, he’s always doing that, but…you know what I mean!
