I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1197: 18.35 First Grey Star - Behemoth Carabao

Flame-Wind Oyster Mushroom Steak is the meal he is going to create, and he is bringing out cooking gloves to shield his hand from the affects of the God-grade mushroom (ok, the gloves are only legendary grade), but he should be able to finish it before the gloves melt.

Even though Su Jin was only a Beginner Chef in this life, his soul was already a Master Chef class, so he was not nervous because this was not the first time he handled a God-grade ingredient when cooking. In his previous life, he accompanied Lu Ming in all danger zones and assisted him in cooking every ingredient that he caught for him.

Ji Yoonjun even assisted in handling the ingredients when he joined the team.

Even Leica, who was watching, noticed his concentration and commented, ”Xiao Ming, you have indeed found a good chef. Just based on Xiao Jinʼs knife techniques and ingredient handling, including his preparation, he should be a master-class chef.”

”What did you say!? Master Chef!?” Lu Ming and Mo Yuhan were stunned.

The two men shouted as if Su Jin blocked all the noise in his surroundings. He focused on the red and green king sized Oyster Mushroom in his chopping board.

{Wua~ wuwu~ it hurts. Please donʼt kill me!}

Childrenʼs cries and pleas fill the air, but Su Jinʼs expression stays solemn and unflinching; he cuts the mushrooms in half without hesitation, and the voices go away after the mushroom is handled properly.

Lu Shang said, ”Not bad. He wasnʼt influenced by the voices of the ingredients. Most young chefs would hesitate when they heard the ingredientsʼ voice and would waste it. This kid is skilled as Leica said.”

”His skills should be master class already. Have him go for a chef rank upgrade after we go down the mountain range,” Leica said.

Lu Ming nodded his head and said, ”I will bring him to the Cooking Hall after this hunt.”

This is the first time since his rebirth that Su Jin has cooked seriously. Adding the days he was fortunate enough to watch Ye Jieye cook, it can be said that his cooking had greatly improved. Su Jin had learned a lot from watching a veteran chef like Ye Jieye. Su Jin handled the God-grade ingredient well. His technique is so good that one would think he is a beginner chef.

His thoughts while cooking are, ʼGood. The mushroom didnʼt lose its mutation, which means Iʼve handled it well. Next I need to season the mushroom with exact ratio to avoid wasting it. After that I need to strictly control the heat or it will burn. I canʼt waste this ingredient, this is something extremely helpful to AʼMing.ʼ

He was concentrating so much that he didnʼt even notice his sweating too much but those who were watching could see it.

Lu Shang said, ”Go help wipe his sweat. You found a good chef as a partner, Ming.”

”Hm. Iʼm so lucky!” Lu Ming said, ”Would I bother him if I do as youʼre told?”

”No. He is focusing intently on cooking. Right now, he wonʼt do a thing until he stops his concentration,” Leica said.

Taking a fresh towel from his supply, Lu Ming approached Su Jin cautiously and helped him dab at the perspiration, and just as Leica had reported, Su Jin did not even look back at him.

Mo Yuhan asked, ”Why canʼt Su Jin notice Lu Ming? Are all chefs like that? But I donʼt think Lord Ye is like that.”

”It is based on their personality. Su Ming had full trust towards Lu Ming so he can fully concentrate on cooking even in this wilderness. As for Lord Ye, that man is cautious in nature. Maybe Sir Mo would be the only exception that will allow him to lower his guard fully,” Leica said as he gave Mo Yuhan a side glance.

Lu Shang said, ”We donʼt know what you are hiding, but if it involves the two of them you better say it as early as you can. If my cousin learned that you intentionally hide something that involves him, you wouldnʼt end well even if your ancestor protects you.”

After hearing these words, Mo Yuhanʼs face turned white, and only then did he realize that the adults in this group already knew he was hiding something.

Perhaps because he had confronted Ye Jieye that day in the villaʼs kitchen, but ever since that night, when he saw the uncontrollable sadness in his cousinʼs eyes, he could not help but feel guilty about what he had done in the past and could only close his mouth, unable to respond.

Leica said, ”Go and protect your brother. He will need a protector as he upgrades his strength.”
