Chapter 140: Legendary Dish

The Great Mage Arfield’s Cloak! It had an invisibility effect that could allow the player to attack the enemy undetected for two seconds.

However, if the attack was made after the allotted two seconds, the invisibility effect would be lifted and the mana consumption would be greater than what was expected.

The cloak would consume 100 MP per second as per normal.

Minhyuk stowed the Great Mage Arfield’s cloak away.

He did not have time to check it.

He had to hurry since the catastrophe would fall tomorrow.

Just like what Varen said, they did not have enough time.

Minhyuk started to cook again without taking any rest.

However, he was still quite happy.

After all, he could eat spicy stir-fried chicken every time he failed! Varen might look like he hated iron for not becoming steel, and was disgruntled with Minhyuk’s happiness, but he could not scold Minhyuk since he could see how hard the boy was trying for their sake.

Finally, the day that Iris Guild would attack and raid Goddess Juis in the dungeon arrived.

***

Iris Guild was currently under the spotlight.

Today was the day where all of the players of Athenae in the country had their eyes on them.

Their dungeon attack squad had rallied their way in front of the dungeon of the Corrupted Goddess Juis and was now waiting for the right time to raid and attack the dungeon.

Among these people was Han Taesung, the PD of Dungeon Attack Live.

‘Kyaa! There are at least 30 rankers who have gathered here...! Amazing!’

Half of the people present were mercenaries, while the remaining half were from Iris Guild.

Of course, not all of the people present were rankers, there were also semi-rankers in their midst.

Even though these semi-rankers did not have much of an influence in Athenae, they could still deal plenty of damage against their opponent.

‘The money that Iris Guild spent on this raid is enormous.’

They had no choice but to cough up money.

The mercenary rankers’ payments were already enough to break the bank.

Besides, the dungeon that they would raid was housing the Corrupted Goddess Juis.

It was a huge dungeon that could accommodate 30-40 people in one go.

Large-scale dungeons like these were more tricky and harder to raid, compared to normal dungeons.

‘Even so, if Iris Guild and Louvert Guild are successful in this SS-ranked dungeon raid quest, it will be a huge break for them,’ Han Taesung thought as he nodded.

Not long after, the live broadcast in Dungeon Attack Live began.

“We are here in front of the dungeon where the Corrupted Goddess Juis is located.

Right now, Iris Guild has taken the initiative to help the rest of the players and make it easier for the whole Northern Continent.

They have given up their hunting and leveling up for days just to speed up their preparations to attack the dungeon.

Iris Guild’s Guild Master Callian had even spent plenty of money and incurred great losses, all just to hire rankers and mercenaries to join them in this quest today! These are all just to stop the catastrophe! They will also support the players with huge amounts of potions as well as the price for equipment maintenance.”

PD Han Taesung immediately tooted his horn for Iris Guild to let the players know about their ‘hardships’ for them.

Of course, their viewers responded to them well.

[GoodIris: I love you, Iris! Make sure you solve the catastrophe that will once again come to the Northern Continent!]

[AnotherTopHunt: It’s seriously hot in here...

Aren’t they saying that if another catastrophe comes then the players should get out of the continent, right May Iris succeed in conquering this dungeon...]

[Cardi: Iris Guild so cool! The first SS-ranked quest, kyaa! Sounds fun!]

The players watched the broadcast filled with interest.

After a while, Han Taesung heard the whisper that he most wanted to hear.

[Henry: PD, the viewer ratings are now over 20%!] 

It was only the beginning but they had already reached 20%! They might even be able to get up to 40% in the viewer ratings today.

“We’re starting!” Callian said as the attack squad entered the dungeon.

***

While Iris Guild started to raid the dungeon…

“...”

…Varen, Eidni and Minhyuk were all speechless.

Unique ranked dishes had come up 20 consecutive times.

“...This is driving me crazy,” Varen said.

He had been informed that a guild had entered the dungeon to hunt the Wrathful Spirit of Goddess Juis.

Their problems had now escalated. 

Valkyrie Kingdom had encountered a problem and the actual suspect for the sabotage was now trying to attack the dungeon They even wanted to damage Goddess Juis’ body This would not do! However, if they all failed, then the kingdom would face the second catastrophe.

The best way was for Minhyuk to succeed!

[Unique ranked...]

[Unique ranked...]

[Unique ranked...]

Minhyuk continuously failed.

By this time, his nerves were frayed in anxiety and he could not help but sweat.

When he peeked at the guild chat window…

[Guild Chat | Crow: It seems that attacking the dungeon was harder than we thought...

There are plenty of rankers in their midst but they still haven’t gone past the entrance...]

[Guild Chat | Locke: They’re just wasting their potions, hehehe.

Are they drinking the Grass’ Dew Potion like powerade Isn’t that potion about three platinum per bottle Wow, and they’re just spraying it like that.]

[Guild Master Genie: They have betted Iris Guild’s life and death this time, and...]

Genie did not finish her sentence, but Minhyuk knew what she wanted to say.

Iris Guild would definitely get a larger return if they succeeded in this quest.

Promotional effects, hordes of players wanting to join their guild, Ballad’s Cup and many others, these would be the gains of a guild that could overcome and appease a catastrophe.

And Minhyuk…

‘I have to do it.’

…had a reason to do so.

A very crucial reason… Sushi.

Not only sushi, but he also had one dish that he wanted to cook with the help of Ballad’s Cup.

‘If I can eat sushi dipped in wasabi and hot sauce partnered with a sip of a delicious and savory hot soup...

Kgghk! I have to do it, I must...!’

Even so, it was truly not an easy task.

Back when Hyemin’sDaddy made a legendary artifact, he also experienced plenty of setbacks, but his luck had played a great role in him completing such an artifact in a short amount of time.

Time continuously flowed and his failures kept on piling up.

[Guild Chat | Locke: They have reached the center of the dungeon but they are dying one by one...]

[Guild Chat | Khan: Serves you right, you sons of bitches!]

[Guild Master Genie: hehehehe.

Just thinking about the penalty… their guild will definitely suffer a lot.]

The dungeon attack squad had already reached the middle of the dungeon and they were slowly heading towards the place where Goddess Juis’ corrupted spirit was located.

Minhyuk sighed deeply.

He knew that he needed to clear his head for a moment before going back to cooking.

This was already the fourth day, and Minhyuk had not rested or slept at all.

His favor with Varen, Eidni and Perle had even reached the maximum because they could see his efforts for their kingdom.

After closing his eyes for a moment, Minhyuk stood back up and began his arduous cooking once more.

He carefully added the cabbage, mixed chicken meat, sweet potato, carrots, onions and the rest of the ingredients to the round pan.

Then, he started to stir-fry all of the ingredients.

Sizzle!

As the sound of the sizzling ingredients grew louder and louder, Minhyuk thought carefully about the dish named spicy stir-fried chicken.

‘Isn’t it the world’s cheapest course meal’

The first course was meat.

Just wrap the spicy stir-fried chicken with lettuce, add some spicy dipping sauce and garlic and eat it as a wrap! Then, there were the add-ons.

Seasoned udon noodles, sweet and flavorful sweet potato, even chewy hand-pulled dough.

After that Of course it was the final course.

Stir-fry some rice with the remaining sauce and sprinkle it with seaweed.

The seaweed flakes would dance from the heat and add more flavors to the rice.

Then, press the rice before scooping and eating it carefully.

There was also the frozen radish water kimchi, a sip from this side dish would give one a refreshing break from the greasiness of the dish.

That was how excellent and satisfying the dish was.

Minhyuk’s forehead was dotted with sweat.

His nervousness coupled with his extreme concentration had already soaked him in sweat.

He quickly wiped off the sweat with the sleeves of his shirt and continued cooking.

[Guild Chat | Khan: It’s the boss room.

Ah...

We’re in trouble.]

Minhyuk finished cooking the moment Khan sent his message.

Just then, the notifications rang.

[You have completed a Spicy Stir-Fried Chicken.]

[Juis’ dish is the only dish with the buff effect.]

[The Create a Recipe Skill Effect can only be tasted by the same person once per month.]

[Trance.

It’s a dish that has your ‘efforts’, ‘passion’ and ‘desire to create a better dish’ poured into it.]

[Due to the effects of Trance, the buff effect has become better.]

[Legendary Grade.]

[You have gained 30 DEX.]

[You have gained 200 REP.]

[You have gained 5,000 AP.]

[You have created the very first Legendary Dish.]

[You have gained the Title: ‘The Man Who Created a Legend.’]

[All basic stats will increase by 2.]

[The Man Who Created a Legend can place his or her name or nickname on the dish.]

[Please specify a name or a nickname.]

Finally, he had done it.

Minhyuk quickly checked his rewards.

The rewards for making a legendary dish were truly enormous.

His REP had increased by 200 points in a single go, just like when he successfully hunted Rumad.

On top of that, he was also able to gain another title.

Back when he received the title ‘The Man Who Hunted One of the Pinnacle Strong Men,’ he received an effect that increased his stats by 10% whenever he was fighting an opponent that was 100 levels higher than him.

As for ‘The Man Who Created a Legend’ He quickly checked the title.

(The Man Who Created a Legend)

Unique Title

Requirements: The Man Who Created a Legend

Title Effects: 

•The probability of creating a legendary dish has doubled.

•Buff ability volume has doubled.

•Increases the shelf life and prevention time.

It was quite a good title.

After he checked the title, Minhyuk quickly checked the legendary dish.

(Spicy Stir-Fried Chicken)

Material Grade: S

Rank: Legendary

Requirements: Only Juis could have the buff effects.

Shelf Life: 65 days

Preservation Time: 60 days

Special Effects:

•God Juis’ Blessings 6

•Holy Power x2.

Description: This is a legendary dish made by a chef with surprising powers and abilities.

“...Wow.”

Minhyuk had always easily exclaimed whenever he was confronted with food, but the only thing that he could utter right now was a single wow.

Juis' skills would have an additional 6 Even her holy power, the crystallization of God’s power and body would double! God Juis would definitely acquire a great deal of holy power with just this dish alone.

Her holy power was already unimaginable.

So, how great would it be if it got doubled

Minhyuk realized that it was not the time to admire the dish.

Varen and Eidni had also realized that something strange had happened when Minhyuk finished making the dish.

It was because a strong, bright light enveloped the dish after he finished plating it.

“D…don’t tell me...”

“Let’s go.

It already came out!”

“...!”

Varen was curious.

So, before coming to the temple, he asked.

“Can I look at it”

Minhyuk nodded as Varen quickly checked the spicy stir-fried chicken but...

he was just left speechless.

“Your Highness” Minhyuk called out to Varen.

He only came back to his senses at the call. 

Varen nodded as he ran with Minhyuk.

Then, he thought, ‘I want to eat it too...’

***

PD Han Taesung’s mouth was going to rip with how wide he was grinning.

He was forced to log out of the dungeon together with the others, but he was still extremely happy.

“Kyaa! Our viewer ratings are over 38%!!!”

There were plenty of viewers watching their broadcast.

Chilling tension! Rankers’ abilities! And monsters that were as powerful as the rankers! The rest of the players had finally entered the boss room and they could see that the boss monster, Wrathful Spirit of Goddess Juis, was extremely strong.

The corrupted holy power that leaked out of her body constantly could instantly rot the players’ skin and bring them under an abnormal state.

‘Hunting Juis had brought us a huge promotional effect, what would happen if they successfully get the rewards’

The viewers would definitely cheer.

Meanwhile…

[Keuaaack!]

…another player was forced to log out and only four people were left in the boss room.

The only people left were Black, Callian, and two other Iris Guild guild members.

Callian went all out just to save Black.

Even though the dish was already cooked, they thought that it would have a better effect if they showed how he cooked.

Callian winked at his guild members.

[Aaaaaaaaargh!]

[Beast’s Blade!]

The guild members squeezed the last of their energies to attack the Wrathful Spirit of Goddess Juis.

No, to be exact, they ran in front of Goddess Juis to take the bullet for Callian and Black.

“Sacrifice of the few for the many. Kgghk!” Han Taesung exclaimed.

He was quite impressed with how the Iris Guild members threw themselves in front of Goddess Juis.

[Keuaaaack!]

[Graaaaaaack!]

Their bodies were ripped to shreds with just one touch from Goddess Juis.

At that moment, Callian moved.

Slash!

[Aaaaaaaaargh!]

Juis shrieked as the voices of the guild members who fell down rang loudly.

They sounded too in sync.

[Y…you must succeed!]

[The Northern Continent must be explored with safety.

Do it for all of the distressed players...!]

They sounded too stiff and weird, as if reading their lines roughly and mechanically from a script, but the audience's ears would not recognize this irregularity.

They would only see Juis falling down as Callian held his sword firmly.

[I’ll surely put the catastrophe out of everyone’s sight!]

Callian’s sword was engulfed with a bright light, as he squeezed out all his strength and ran straight towards Juis.

He successfully stabbed Juis’ chest! Juis staggered back as Callian pulled out his sword and tried to slash at her abdomen.

“He kil...!” Han Taesung shouted to declare their success.

But then, something happened…

[Shwaaaaa!]

…Goddess Juis burst in a flash of bright light and disappeared.

“H…huh...

W…what the hell Did he kill her” Han Taesung asked in confusion, turning to look at the people behind him.

“His sword did not reach her yet, though...”

They saw the same scene as what Taesung saw and they were sure that the sword did not stab Juis yet.

“W…what the hell!”

The broadcasting station was suddenly turned upside down with chaos.

Callian was also looking around suspiciously.

Even the viewer’s message board was exploding in comments.

All of them were saying that they were certain that the attack did not push through and they were wondering why Juis suddenly disappeared.

Right now, the words of the players, the viewers, the broadcasters and the members of Iris Guild were all one and the same.

[GoodIris: W…what...]
