Chapter 517: God of Slaughter, Asura
[You have eaten Chicken.]
[The dish is Legendary Grade.]
[After detecting the danger, the Cooking Trailer has reached the MAX abilities. The dishes that it can create will have a higher grade and better buff effects.]
[Your Magical Attack will increase by 1.3x.]
[Your Magical Defense will increase by 1.8x.]
[Your Physical Attack will increase by 1.3x.]
[Your Physical Defense will increase by 1.8x.]
[Your MP Volume will increase by 1.8x]
[Your Magic Cooldown will decrease by 30%.]
[All of your stats will increase by 25%.]
[Your magic’s tier will increase by another tier.]
[The buff effect will last for two days.]
“…?!”
Dragon Anarchon was stupefied.
‘Did it just say that my MP Volume will increase by 1.8x…?’
Dragons were known for their almost limitless mana. Although it was said to be near limitless, in actual fact, there was still a cap to the amount of mana that they could use. Just like human mages, they would need more mana to cast higher-tiered magic.
On top of that, using magic of a higher tier that went beyond their current realm would gnaw and devour a huge chunk out of their mana volume. But now, with the help of the buff effect, their mana volume had increased, reaching a higher level than the mana that they had before they crossed over to the Asgan Continent when their bodies were still not yet subjected to the penalty.
But the effects did not end there.
There was also the part where it said that their magical attack had increased by 1.3x and their magical defense by 1.8x. Even their stats had increased sharply, while their cooldown had decreased by 30%.
‘I’ve become stronger than before I got the penalty. But the most surprising part is…’
Anarchon, who was left reeling from the shock, could only gulp dryly as he looked around him. The most surprising part here was the fact that it was not only Anarchon that received the buff effects. Everyone here had received the same buff effects. Everyone, including…
“Minhyuk, your cooking is always superb.”
“Thanks, Noona.”
“It was delicious, Your Majesty.”
…the humans. The trailer was an artifact that helped Minhyuk make ‘bulk’ dishes taste similar to ‘single’ dishes. It could also take on the role of controlling and distributing the buff effects to the bulk dishes. Also, Minhyuk did not use Create a Recipe to make the dishes. He only made some chicken, a dish that anyone could eat and receive buff effects from.
To think that the dishes that he made actually gave them this much power.
‘The Food God’s power is truly shocking.’
At this moment, Anarchon and the rest of the dragons realized that the human king, the Food God, was an existence that they could not afford to treat recklessly. Along with that, a set of notifications rang in Minhyuk’s ears.
[The Dragons’ Average Satisfaction Rate has reached 98%.]
[You will be able to get treasures, gold, artifacts and a variety of other items from Dragon Anarchon’s lair.]
[….a variety of other items from Dragon Velach’s lair.]
[….a variety of other items from Dragon Yvrett’s lair.]
[You will be granted special rewards for exceeding 90% Satisfaction Rating!]
[You have gained +5 in all of your stats.]
[Your favor with Dragon Elder Velach has reached the highest level.]
[You have gained 200 REP.]
[You have gained +1 in all of your stats.]
[Your favor with Dragon Anarchon has reached the highest level.]
[You have gained 200 REP.]
[You have gained +1 in all of your stats.]
The notifications rang non-stop in Minhyuk’s ears.
***
Prince Votto curled up and hid like a rat. No one would believe him if he told others that he was the first prince of Lumae Kingdom, the Warrior\'s Nation. In fact, right now, Prince Votto was wallowing in regret.
‘In the first place, Akhan had no intention of giving me any of the kingdoms…’
Votto had been so blinded by greed that he failed to recognize this fact. Because of his greed, the precious troops that the Lumae Kingdom had carefully raised and nurtured died. But even if he regretted it now, he could never undo his mistakes.
At that moment, a woman, who was wiping the oil from the corners of her mouth, walked towards him. Prince Votto, whose face was hidden behind a mask, felt his body freeze for a moment, before trembling immensely.
“Your father, Raldo, will definitely like it once he finds out about this.”
Sword Emperor Ellie liked to compete in the way of the sword with Overlord Raldo. However, this and that were two completely different things.
“I want to slit that throat of yours so badly, you bastard. But I’m holding it in. After all, I shouldn’t be the one to have the honor, but the king of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom.”
Prince Votto felt fear hearing Ellie’s words but he also could not stop the scoff that came out of his mouth, “…Ha.?What can you even do in this situation? Everyone in this place will eventually die. Empire’s ruler, how can you leisurely eat when everything is a mess?”
Votto actually found what the Beyond the Heavens’ King did after taking control of Asura for a while to be ridiculous. After all, what he did was to just feed the dragons. That was completely ridiculous. Of course, Prince Votto was aware of the effects of buffed dishes. Even if they could get buff effects from these dishes, their opponent was not something that they could easily deal with.
Not long after, Ellie, who looked at Beyond the Heavens’ King Minhyuk, snorted at him, “You have no right to make a judgment on this matter. This is not something that you can judge.”
Crack, crack, crack, crack—
The shield that surrounded Asura began to crack. The dragons, who have finished their meals, flocked around the shield and prepared for battle.
“Watch closely.”
Those words made Prince Votto wonder. What was it that she wanted him to watch? How Asura would turn the entire Asgan Continent into a sea of blood?
Then, Food God Minhyuk pointed his sword at the skies and shouted, “Dragons and humans! Let’s work together to drive Asura out of our lands!!!”
Minhyuk’s orders only had one meaning. That was to rescind the orders to retreat that Vice Guild Master Genie had ordered earlier. Conir rode on Elder Velach’s back while Genie climbed on Anarchon. The guild members of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom climbed on top of the dragons one after the other. They soared to the skies with the dragons, writing a new chapter in the annals of Asgan Continent.
As they soared to the skies, the Food God immediately set up a new barrier to make another dish. Then…
Claaaaaaaaang—
Vwoooooooooooooooong—
Asura’s power, which was held back by the dragons’ shields earlier, erupted and devoured the surrounding area. Asura rose up as a red current swept out through Asgan continent.
“Wallow in despair,” Asura declared. If he was playing around with them earlier, he did not have any intentions to do so anymore.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—
[Blood Storm.]
[Anything and everything around you will be targeted by the storm of blood with an additional 3,300% attack power!]
Dozens of bloody lights shot up towards the dragons flying in the skies the moment Asura swung his gigantic bloody greatswords. Seeing this, Prince Votto shook his head. He knew that this was the end. Asura’s attack power was beyond anyone’s imagination. Also, the dragons were in a weakened state. No matter how great of an existence they were, they had no way to stop this attack.
But then, something surprising happened. One of the humans that rode on top of the dragons, Elpis, fired a powerful sword light.
“…?!”
What happened next was even more shocking. The Blood Storm was weakened by the sword light. The weakened Blood Storm was then devoured by the dozens of high-tiered magical attacks that the dragon that accompanied Elpis created. Then…
Shwaaaaaaaaa—
…it disappeared into nothingness. The others also did the same thing. The guild members and NPCs of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom weakened the Blood Storm, while the dragons used their magic to offset it.
“…!”
Asura’s power had reached the realms of a Demigod. Even though they were dragons, there was no way for them to stop Asura’s attacks. It was proven by the fact that they were being pushed back just a few moments earlier.
But now?
‘This, this is ridiculous…’
A sound of disbelief escaped from Votto’s mouth. How could they become that strong after eating just one meal? For someone at Level 100, they would have a hard time hunting a hundred-year-old monster. However, someone at Level 130 could easily hunt ten of such monsters. Also, the stronger they became, the more powerful their force would be.
In other words, eating one meal had increased their power by so much. It had to be around 30% or more, that they could now deal with Asura’s attacks.
At that moment, Asura also realized that something was strange. He immediately increased his speed by three times as he shot through the air and slashed through the gigantic bodies of the dragons in front of him. He was so fast that he left an afterimage, finishing the attack in just three seconds.
Fwiish—
Fwiiiiiish—
Fwiiiiiiiiiish—
Blood spurted out of the dragons’ bodies. However…
‘The dragons’ defenses have increased to a ridiculous level…’?Votto thought, gulping dryly. Going by the standards of Asura’s attacks, they should not only be nicked, they should have already been almost cut down. But despite the blood spurting out of the dragons’ bodies, the attack did not really deal much of a damage on them.
Twitch, twitch—
The main reason? This was because the dragons also had high regenerative powers.
“Unbelievable…”
It was only then that Prince Votto realized what Ellie meant when she said ‘watch’.
“So this is the power of the Food God, the king of Beyond the Heavens Kingdom.”
Then, Ellie moved in an explosive manner.
Baaaaaaaaaaang—
Asura, who was hit by her sword, flew back from the impact.
Vwoooooooooong—
Despite being sent flying back, Asura still could not understand what happened.
‘How can they suddenly become so strong?’
The weak humans and the puny dragons’ power had risen dramatically in just a short amount of time. Of course, Asura was also aware of what happened during that short amount of time.
Swooosh—
Asura, who was still flying back from the impact of the attack, suddenly stopped when his back touched something. This was none other than a transparent barrier, the barrier created from Minhyuk’s ‘Let’s Have a Meal’ skill.
This time, Minhyuk was preparing a dish for himself with the trailer and the barrier.
“It’s not over yet.”
The pride and dignity that the Food God was displaying was very shocking. He was a being that had the power to make dozens of people stronger. On top of that, he also possessed another power.
(Double Food)

? A ‘cooking dice’ will be thrown when the two dishes’ buff effects overlap. The number that will be displayed on the dice will determine the duration of the buff.?
? The lower the number, the shorter the duration of the buff effect. The duration per number rolled is as follows: thirty seconds for number 1, one minute for number 2, two minutes for number 3, three minutes for number 4, four minutes for number 5 and seven minutes for number 6.?
? The EXP that you can obtain will double for as long as the special effect of the Overlapping Delight is in effect.
Right now, the power created by the combination of Double Food and Overlapping Delight was about to unfold.
‘Dangerous…’
Demigod’s Asura’s senses were sending warning signals of the danger ahead of him.
