Chapter 293
293 – Desolate Earth
ㅡTiring!
[The target’s affinity increases!]
[Schnelia (Lv.4796 / Wood) – Crushing Relationship → Blind Trust Stage]
ㅡTiring!
[It shook the heart of a real dragon, not a hatchling!]
[There are just a few days left for Gourmet Feeding (S Rank) to be ranked up!]
System messages that appear one after another.
Schnelia’s information alone is surprising,
Following the news of an increase in favorability level, an increase in skill level was also predicted.
‘Just a few days ago, I thought S rank was the end…’
To be precise, it was until compensation was received from the system error recovery sequence.
But now, beast taming has been upgraded to ‘starting’ level… And for some reason, even gourmet feeding was looking at the current starting level.
But if you think about it, it was a strange thing.
I definitely left behind a dessert I made,
A gourmet’s feeding skill is increasing?
‘Actually, didn’t it suit your taste? But is there any reason to pretend otherwise? … ?’
I don’t know the detailed context,
This one thing was certain.
My body is now returning more and more to its original state.
That’s probably why even the skill level name has the name ‘starting’ attached to it.
If he were an ordinary being, S rank would definitely have been his limit. However, it seems like you can awaken all your skills up to the initial level…
‘Is something like this happening just by holding my wrist? Perhaps this is also an effect of Beast Taming, which is the starting level?’
… That was when I was looking at Schnelia’s wrist while thinking.
“Uh, over there… Breeder? Are you okay?”
“Hmm? “It’s nothing.”
“Is that so? Since you suddenly didn’t say anything, I thought I made some mistake…”
“It can’t be.” Don’t worry, it’s not like that. Actually, I was lost in thought for a moment about what I should make next.”
“Hmm… ! Was it something like that? Anyway, you went through all your troubles for me, a lowly person…”
ㅡTiring!
[The target’s favorability increases slightly!]
Schnellia’s favorability rises once again.
Was it because we had already entered into friendly relations?
Even small things can easily increase likability.
I knew that I was the beginning, so in a way, it was natural. Just like Seirin did before.
“Anyway, are you okay with everything?”
“Well, of course… ! I am honored to have any food from Breeder! It’s a blessing our family will never have again… ?!”
“Ahaha, is that so?”
ㅡSussssseu… !
I responded appropriately and turned off the status window.
For now, that’s all I have to do with Schnelia.
I couldn’t hold her any longer.
That’s why I was worried about Derke and Tina, who were struggling without me.
I was planning on leaving for just a moment,
It took a lot longer than I thought.
That’s why I wanted to go down right away and help.
It must not have been an easy task for those who are just freshmen to receive and process orders from their seniors.
“However… Breeder?”
“Why are you calling me again? Is there anything else you would like to request?”
“No, it’s not really anything like that, but… Oh, speaking of which! “Now that you have prepared it, can I ask you to give me the food that you think is the most delicious?”
“What food do you think is the most delicious?”
“Yes… ! It may be too much to ask, but I would like to take this opportunity to truly experience the breeder’s skills… ?”
ㅡTiring!
‘What? ‘It’s happening again?’
As soon as Schnelia finished speaking, a system message appeared before her eyes again.
[The initial level awakening quest is activated!]
[Target Unique Skill – Gourmet Feeding]
[The quest begins when you accept the request of Schnelia, the person you are communicating with.]
[Do you want to accept?]
I did something and something came.
A beginning grade awakening quest…
As expected, just raising the skill level does not seem to increase the grade.
“Whatever, it’s good.”
It was a completely unexpected quest,
There was no need to worry too much.
There didn’t seem to be any particular risk, so there was no reason to refuse.
It was clear that if the gourmet’s appetite was awakened, the food’s star rating would also rise much higher than before. And based on that, we will be able to further strengthen the people we communicate with.
“Are you really listening to my request? I’m just saying this… If you feel burdened, you can refuse—”
“No, it’s really okay. And when I heard those words, something came to mind that I wanted to make.”
ㅡTiring!
[You have accepted the quest!]
[Quest clear conditions: Cook and serve food as requested by Schnelia within 48 hours.]
[Quest clear reward: Awakening of ‘Gourmet Feeding’.]
[It becomes possible to rank up beyond S rank to the starting rank.]
[If you fail to clear the quest: Schnelia’s favorability level decreases.]
It’s definitely not a bad condition.
Although there were no disadvantages in case of failure,
This was a compensation worth bearing.
Ah, but it’s a bit over the line to tell the result of success or failure only after acceptance.
“… I would be honored if the breeder said that. Then, as soon as I return, I will take steps to ensure smooth preparations.”
“Great. Anyway, shall we go down now?”
“Oh, that’s right? It was like that last time, but when you talk to the breeder, you don’t realize how much time passes, right?”
ㅡTogak, again, again… !
Schnellia is finally leaving.
I followed her.
To see her off her and check on her her condition her her her on the first floor.
ㅡTurb, trudge, trudge… !
ㅡTall!
But for some reason, Schnelia, who had been walking a few steps, suddenly stops. In the middle of the second floor.
“Hey, principal? Why did you suddenly stop?”
“B-breeder? “How did this happen now?”
“Yes? What does that mean…”
“Take a look around… !”
She looks very surprised.
I immediately turned my head at those words.
To take a look around the view of the second floor.
“W-what… ? For some reason, it seemed quiet earlier… !?”
As I glanced around the lounge, I couldn’t help but look as surprised as Schnelia. That’s right…
ㅡHaout… ♡ This is so sweet… ?
-It can’t be compared to what I ate last time… ?
Hehe… ! The world is spinning, spinning… ♥
-This is so sweet it feels like my tongue will melt, haa…
The entire second floor had already been devastated.
To be precise, I was taken over by sweetness.
As you can see, some were confused,
Most of the other students were completely stunned.
Just like when Derke tasted it for the first time.
‘You ate it all… ?’
When I looked closely, the biscuits were also biscuits,
I think the brown sugar dalgona milk tea played a role.
As expected, all the glasses were empty.
I probably drank milk tea to relieve the sweetness and stickiness of the overly sweet biscuits. Even just water or milk doesn’t cool you down.
As a result, this was no different from drinking salt water to quench one’s thirst.
Damn, I forgot because I was in a hurry to follow Schnellia up there.
I tried to leave out milk tea if possible,
I was unable to convey this information.
That’s why Derke and Tina didn’t know anything and just took it as it was.
“B-breeder? How did this happen…?! “Students faint after eating dessert?”
“Ha, Schnelia? “I’ll explain the details later, so just follow along!”
ㅡTadadat… !
“Oh? Breeder… !?”
I quickly went down the stairs leaving those words behind.
The second floor is for low-level first and second year students.
It wasn’t a problem because most of them couldn’t handle the sweet taste and most of them passed out. Because I was able to come to my senses quickly after resting.
But the problem was the 3rd and 4th graders on the first floor.
Those of a relatively high level were able to vaguely withstand the power of sugar. But that was more of a problem.
As if I was drunk, I lost control and moved based on my instincts.
And I knew very well how terrible and difficult it was to bear. Because I’ve already experienced it once…
“Derke… !!! Tina-?!”
As soon as I went down to the first floor, I looked for today’s duty.
I was most worried about the guys who had to face this confusing situation.
As expected, I felt an ominous and strange feeling downstairs.
If something had happened, Derke and Tina, who were on duty, would have rushed to the second floor to report. But strangely enough, there was no news.
“Derke! Tina? Answer me when you hear me… !”
But there was no reply from them. Even Sophia’s voice.
“…”
Eventually, I reached the first floor and had no choice but to freeze.
‘How can this be? This is so… ?’
