Chapter 297: Create a Recipe for Me

PD Kim Dae-Guk of ATV still had not forgotten about the highest rating in ATV’s history. The viewer rating reached as much as 61.4%. The other broadcasting stations had laughed at ATV when they chose to broadcast Legend Guild back then. In the end, Legend Guild and Black Dragon and the Boys were the ones that overturned the results. And the player who gave them the highest rating was none other than Food God Minhyuk. Currently, Minhyuk had shown another great power in front of them.

PD Kim Dae-Guk quickly checked the real-time comments.

[Wow…! Shit…! What skill is that?! I have never seen such a strong AOE attack skill in my life…!]

[There were around 400~500 demonic beasts and demons, but almost all of them are dead, right? Even those that survived are unable to fight.]

[Barach was heavily wounded in various areas, but it’s still trying to regenerate quickly?]

[No, what in the world did Food God Minhyuk do in the past few days that we haven’t seen him?]

Just like the comments, PD Kim Dae-Guk was also curious.

‘Where has he been, and what had he done in the last few days?’?

From his huge scythe, to his oven explosion skill, down to Beanie’s appearance, it seemed that many things had changed. However, a helpless smile still spread on PD Kim’s face. He said, “But still…”

‘It will still be hard for him to hunt that, right?’

Perhaps Athenae had set the next update in the direction of failure and not success in the recapture of the Elven Forest. Of course, they would not bet their everything in that direction. However, looking at the current situation, Athenae must have definitely only calculated a 5% winning chance on the side of the players.

“The ratings went up by more than 5%!”

“Wow…! I’ve never seen such a skill in my life!! It’s really amazing. Looking at the explosion, he could take out the demonic beasts and demons, but probably also be able to take out a decent noble demon too.”

PD Kim Dae-Guk nodded, but a bitter smile hung around his lips. Fortunately, the rankers safely arrived behind Minhyuk after he triggered the skill. Still, PD Kim Dae-Guk expected something more from Minhyuk despite the bitter smile on his face.

‘Well then, Player Minhyuk… What kind of power are you going to show us?’?

Minhyuk obviously had something if he called for the players to gather together. Then, Minhyuk raised his hands up in the sky.

The eyes of PD Kim Dae-Guk and the people in the broadcasting station shone in anticipation.

Minhyuk shouted…

[Let’s Have a Meal!!!]

“Ack?!!!”

“Wh…what? Have a what?!”

The people at the broadcasting station were flustered when they heard him shout Let’s Have a Meal!.?This was because this was the first time that Minhyuk had used the ‘Let’s Have a Meal’ skill in public. Just like them, the viewers also found the situation to be ridiculously absurd.

[What a f*cking ridiculous skill name…]

At that moment, a lot of people’s expectations were suddenly dampened.

***

Thanks to Alicia, Lee Hosung was barely spared from a forced log out. He was also one of the players who had been desperately running toward Minhyuk after hearing the latter's cry. When he heard the name of Minhyuk’s skill, he could not believe his ears for a moment.

“Let’s… Let’s have a meal, what?”

He was not the only one. Even the other rankers started to make a fuss.

“Ah…?Did…did we gather here to have a meal?”

“No matter how desperate we are, eating is a bit…”

Then, a huge barrier was created.

[An absolute invincible barrier has been created.]

[You can only attack your enemies once you leave the barrier.]

Amidst the fuss of the rankers, Minhyuk was eagerly praying and hoping.

‘Please, please, please, please, please!!’?

Minhyuk was actually not certain about this. He was only hoping that it would work. Then…

[Create a recipe that you want.]

Ring!

[You have found a class skill.]

[You have learned your class’ active skill ‘Food God’s Recipe’.]

[You can now check the recipe for Harmonious Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles.]

[The amount of buff that can be used has been decreased due to creating a recipe.]

(Food God’s Recipe)

Active Skill

Level: 1

Cooldown: 336 hours

?The grade of the food varies depending on the harmony of food, the quality of the ingredients, the choice of food according to the circumstances and the satisfaction of your cravings.

?There is a higher chance of the food having a higher rank than the food created using the normal Create a Recipe skill.

‘Oh…’

It was the perfect skill for their current situation. Minhyuk immediately checked the recipe that was created from his new skill.

(Food God’s Harmonious Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles Recipe)

Required Ingredients: Ingredients for Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles

Expected Dish Grade: Unique~Legendary

Expected Effects:

?Ellie’s Swordsmanship evolves significantly.

?All stats will increase sharply.

Description: A typical Create a Recipe dish would be completed once you start from beginning to end. But the Food God’s Recipe does not follow the regular rules. Right now, you are extremely annoyed due to various stress factors. Let’s properly get rid of that annoyance all at once with the combination of Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles.

The Food God’s Recipe broke out of the loop of the traditional way of producing excellent buffed dishes. Once he completed an excellent dish and achieved great harmony, the ranking of the dish would increase.

Minhyuk was amazed. He thought, ‘That’s right! I’m feeling so stressed right now, so I definitely need a spicy hot flavor to get rid of it!’

The best in terms of spiciness in the ramyeon world. Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles. Although Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles was spicy enough to make one’s tongue tingle, its spiciness was at a strangely delicious level. Because of that, it was a food that was loved by many.

As soon as Minhyuk used his ‘Let’s Have a Meal’ skill, he also hurriedly began to cook the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles, while taking care to create harmony in the dish.

Meanwhile, Lee Hosung looked at him with expectations when he saw him taking something out.

‘That’s right. Player Minhyuk is a Food God. He’s the one who beat the Crown Prince of Swords Carr and swept the Demon Army alone… He must have some sort of secret potion… Keoheok?!!

The faces of Lee Hosung and the other rankers crumpled as if they wanted to cry.

“Fi…fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles…?”

“We’re doomed… this is our end…”

“Sob!”

‘It was our fault! Why did we place our trust in him!’

They immediately gathered together to discuss how they would hunt Barach once the barrier was gone.

Meanwhile, Minhyuk opened the lid of a cup of Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles. He could see the flakes powder and the liquid soup pack resting on top of the on the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles.

Before he started cooking, Minhyuk thought, ‘Should I add a variety of things inside, or should I add the things that I usually eat together with the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles?’

He thought about it for a second. There were tons of recipes circulating on the internet on how to enjoy the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles. Minhyuk nodded after choosing one among many recipes available.

‘Let’s put the most basic ingredients that should be eaten with the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles, then add other things that I can eat with it.’

Minhyuk poured hot water into the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles. Then, he put oil on his frying pan, heated it and added two eggs.

Sizzleeeeee?

An exciting, entrancing sound came out of his pan as he cooked the egg, making sure not to cook the yolk fully. Then, Minhyuk reached his hand out towards the microwave. He quickly opened the door of the microwave as he placed the bulgogi-flavored sausage that was stuck on a wooden stick and had its plastic wrapper slightly opened.

After doing all of that, his Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles was finally done cooking. He quickly poked the lid with his chopsticks as he discarded the hot water. Then, he peeled the lid off completely as he sprinkled the flakes, seaweed powder, sesame seeds, and various other things, before adding the liquid soup.

“Hmm~?Smell~”

The unique spicy scent wafted to his nose. The scent was so spicy that it immediately stimulated Minhyuk’s mouth, making him drool. After squeezing the liquid soup pack, he quickly mixed it together with his chopsticks, causing the yellow noodles to turn red. Once he was done mixing, Minhyuk placed a long string of cheese on top of it. And just in time…

Ding!

…the ham bar that was heated in the microwave was quickly taken out and added to his Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles.

Then, Minhyuk placed the entire cup in the microwave. Minhyuk looked at the microwave in anticipation. Then…

Ding!

Minhyuk hurriedly pulled the cup out of the microwave once he heard the ding!.

“Hot! Hot! Hot!”

The heat of the cup transferred to the tips of his fingers. It was because he was in a hurry to take the cup out of the microwave.

Minhyuk felt as if he was looking at art as he stared at the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles. The white cheese looked like melted snow piled up on top of the fiery red noodles which made him gasp in awe. Just a slight touch of Minhyuk’s chopsticks was enough to stretch the cheese out.

Minhyuk quickly started to arrange the setting. Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles, microwave heated ham bar, tuna mayo triangular kimbap, and peach-flavored Julpis.

“Kyaah!?It’s done, it’s done!”

Minhyuk quickly stirred with his chopsticks. He even purposely left out the fried egg. He held the noodle cup in one hand as he used his other hand to lift the noodles and the cheese with his chopsticks. The spicy flavor of the noodles in Minhyuk’s hands wafted towards his nose. Then…

Sluuuuuurp!

…the deliciously spicy taste that was mellowed out by the soft cheese greeted him in his first bite. After taking one big bite, Minhyuk held out his chopsticks again and took another big one.

Sluuuuuurp~

The charm of the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles was its spiciness that gradually increased in intensity the more you ate.

“Fwwwwip! Hooo!”

Minhyuk breathed out roughly as he tried to soothe his burning tongue with some fried egg. The light and soft flavor of the fried egg evened out the spiciness for a bit. Then, he took another mouthful of the spicy noodles, before taking a bite out of the ham bar.

Chew, chew, chew?

The juicy ham bar and its soft texture brought a smile to his face.

As for the commentators…

[Wow… That’s, that’s crazy…]

[Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles are the best!! That’s right!! Everything is good when combined with the Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles, but don’t you think that the combination of a ham bar and the triangular kimbap next to it is the best in the world?!]

[No. I don’t know why Athenae becomes a mukbang whenever Player Minhyuk appears, but what I’m sure of is that the sales of Fire Chicken Stir-Fried Noodles would be the best today!!]

[Aaaaaaaaah!!! Player Minhyuk took off the plastic from the triangular kimbap!!! What amazing hand movements!!! Usually, a large chunk of the seaweed gets torn off whenever we open the wrapper, but the wrapper that he took off is surprisingly clean!!!]

[Crunch! That’s the sound of Player Minhyuk biting on the triangular kimbap!!! I can’t believe that the tuna mayo triangular kimbap can go easily in someone’s mouth like that! Is there a more fascinating meal like this?!]

[That’s right! Player Minhyuk takes another bite out of the ham bar…! That’s right! Yeah! Yes!! Bite that! Our Lord, Food God, bites the ham bar once again!]

[Aaaaaaaah! I’m going crazy! Just like the viewers wanted, Player Minhyuk gulps down that julpis! It looks cold and refreshing! Gulp! It went in!]

[His ‘Haaa!’ exclamation towards the end made me scream in awe without realizing it!!!]

The rankers, with Lee Hosung among them, looked at Minhyuk strangely just a while ago…

Gulp?

…were gulping loudly without realizing it.

“Looks, looks delicious…”

This time, Minhyuk already won against Barach in this strange battle of nerves with his mukbang.
