I Became a Servant the Dragons Are Obsessed With

508 – Side Story) Courage

ㅡBubble bubble bubble… … !!!

A clear liquid boils inside the pot.

“It’s boiling just right, right? thank god. “I was wondering what would happen if it got stuck.”

At first glance, the water may appear to be boiling, but this is no ordinary water. It was a key ingredient in the dessert I am currently preparing.

ㅡPyeokkeuk! Pop… … !

If you look closely, the boiling appearance is clearly different from water. The thick texture, like starch syrup, can be felt with the eyes.

Sometimes the bubbles pop up and it feels like I’m looking at transparent magma.

When you stir the contents with a spatula, the right amount of thickness is transferred to your fingertips without any lumps.

Fortunately, it melted well without burning.

Even the slightest mistake would have caused quite a stir.

It would probably have been black rather than transparent like it is now.

ㅡRurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr… … !

When I lift the spatula, a clear liquid with a thick consistency stretches out and slowly flows down. Like lifting thick egg water.

“Hmm..! This sweet smell… … . “Maybe it’s because it’s been a while, but it’s not as bad as I thought, right?”

At the same time, a strong smell of dalgona wafts out.

It was like that. This is none other than sugar-boiled water.

It was a sugar syrup made by mixing sugar and water in a certain ratio and boiling it slowly over low heat.

If you apply more heat here, the moisture may evaporate and burn.

ㅡBeep beep… !

I immediately lowered the temperature of the induction.

It doesn’t harden and just bubbles slightly.

In the meantime, I planned to prepare the main ingredients.

‘Then shall we take it out now?’

-Rust!

I took the bag out of the refrigerator.

The bag that was kept in the refrigerator is heavy.

These were the ingredients I bought last minute while grocery shopping with Derke.

What was inside the bag were various fruits that were no different from luxury items to me.

‘It’s expensive, but more than anything, it’s a hassle so I rarely eat it… … .’

ㅡDegurur… … !

Colorful fruits roll out of the bag.

Of course, I didn’t just buy one type.

Cherry, strawberry, pineapple and shine muscat.

These were things I don’t normally eat.

However, I chose Derke after risking a huge amount of money. Because I wanted to see Derke eating with a happy face.

That’s why I wanted to make something that was at least a little bit more authentic than just instant food like ramen. Of course, this was also easy compared to other desserts or dishes.

ㅡShooaaa… … !

I washed the fruits first.

Simply wash it under running water and you’re ready.

What I’m trying to make now wasn’t something that took a lot of work.

Besides, there was nothing to prepare except the pineapple.

ㅡSreung!

It’s been a while since I held all the knives in the kitchen.

This cool yet familiar feeling.

I wonder if I can handle a knife freely with this body.

“Then, shall we try cutting it lightly?”

ㅡSuddenly! Patter… … !

“… hmm?”

I wondered what would happen if my knife skills were reset, but it was a useless hope.

It feels much more natural than I thought.

As if returning to the breeder’s body.

I was peeling the pineapple without any effort.

‘It’s like cutting tofu…’ … .’

I just trusted my instincts, just in case.

As expected, the flexible sword play continues.

The thick skin of the pineapple is peeled off,

The core located in the center is cut into a neat cylinder shape.

ㅡRide, ride… … !

Next, it is evenly prepared into bite-sized pieces that are easy to eat, just as I imagined.

And that quickly, in the blink of an eye.

It was so bad that I couldn’t even see my hands.

Does this mean that the initial skill does not cover the body?

It was a good thing I told Sorim to sit down.

If I saw this now, I would definitely be suspicious.

Because the cutting was so fast that it was invisible to the average human eye.

‘Anyway, shall we proceed with the rest of the process quickly?’

Preparing strawberries, cherries, and shine muscat was simple. All I had to do was tidy up the top.

ㅡPhew! Kuuuk… !

The prepared fruits are placed on skewers one by one.

Match the colors of the same type.

Approximately 4 pieces per skewer are appropriate.

And finally these… … .

ㅡBubble bubble bubble… … !

All you have to do is lightly coat it with sugar syrup that is very slightly boiling over low heat.

Rotate the skewer around the surface of the syrup to coat only the surface.

It would be okay to turn off the heat and roughly dip it in the syrup and then remove it, but if you do that, the syrup may clump together as it cools and you won’t be able to thin the coating.

Above all, when you chew it later,

You will no longer be able to feel the crunchy texture.

It was clear that the unpleasant, soggy, soft texture would fill my mouth.

If that happens, the reason and merit of coating it with sugar syrup disappears.

It was like that. What I’m making right now is ‘Fruit Tanghulu’, where sugar syrup is the main ingredient rather than fruit.

‘If you’re Derke who likes sweets, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it, right?’

In fact, I have never tried it either.

Because I don’t like eating fruit.

It was a dessert just for Derke.

The recipe was also something I found while looking through it before going to sleep yesterday.

ㅡRoll, roll, roll… … .

Slowly turn the skewer as if winding a skein of thread and coat the fruit with the syrup.

For coated items, spread a thin layer of sugar as if rubbing the tip of the pan to prevent air bubbles from forming.

Fruit skewers coated in a thin sugar syrup reflect the light and sparkle. As if there was glass on the outside.

I can’t wait to let it cool down and bite into that coating with my teeth. I wonder if there will be a sound of glass breaking like seen in the video.

‘Okay, now all I have to do is freeze these quickly to harden them… … .’

ㅡCheoeok!

Out of habit, I stretched out my hand towards the Tanghuru neatly placed in the bowl. To increase the power of the ice attribute stored in the heart.

“Huh… … !”

The process of increasing strength was not difficult.

All you have to do is draw strength from deep within your Danjeon.

I exhale slowly, thinking about Sonya’s chilling strength.

ㅡTiring!

At the same time, the system alarm sounds.

“… ah?”

[Transfer of Dragon Heart has not yet been completed.]

[Transmission rate to date: 12.5%]

[With a dragon that has the corresponding attribute, no separate transmission time is needed.]

[Currently activated Dragon Heart attributes: None]

A system message pops up and points out something I overlooked.

‘Oh, that’s right. ‘This was originally my body, right?’

As we move into modern times, the power of the Dragon Heart has not yet been fully transferred.

Still, it seemed like the Death Dragon Heart could be used. It’s probably possible because I came over with Derke.

By the way, speaking of no attributes… … .

Is it possible to summon the ghosts?

Whenever I think of the faces of ghosts, I feel nostalgic. It’s been a few days since I haven’t seen you… … .

“White dragon? Black dragon?”

I muttered quietly, just in case. And at the same time… … .

「Nyorolong… ?」

“Norurung-?!”

“oh… … .”

Two ghosts lifting their heads from my chest as if they were waiting. They were really welcoming faces.

But this joy was short-lived.

“huh? Jihoon, what did you just say? There was something strange coming from the kitchen… … .”

“Ah..? Rice, it’s no big deal. “It’s the sound of a cell phone alarm.”

“okay? “Is this your first time hearing such a cute alarm sound?”

“Hmm! Anyway, just wait a moment. “It’s almost done now.”

I hurriedly pressed the heads of Black Dragon and White Dragon and put them back into my body. Because there was nothing I could do to help right now.

“Nonyonyonyot… … ?!

「Nyo-rung-rung… … !?」

“I’m sorry, but please stay inside for a moment. “I’ll call you again later.”

It’s a pity, but I’ll have to call you again next time.

Although it was only for a moment, it was a very happy reunion.

Because it felt like I was drifting into modern times rather than returning.

“… By the way, I guess I should finish what I was doing, right?”

ㅡTeoup!

After that, I had no choice but to put Tanghulu in the freezer.

In modern times, there is no problem in not being able to use the power of the Dragon Heart. Just replace it with the power of science.

It didn’t take long for the syrup to completely harden. About 3 minutes passed like that?

ㅡTiring!

[Fruit Bingtanghuru – ★★★★★]

[A dessert that cannot even be compared to fruit candy. Any sweet and sour fruit can become Tanghulu. However, be careful about protecting your blood sugar and teeth before consuming.]

Five stars.

This time, the figure is lower than expected.

Well, it’s a dessert with a relatively simple recipe and it was my first time trying it, so it’s completely understandable.

‘But if it’s this much, everyone will like it, right?’

While thinking about this short review, I took out the properly hardened Bingtanghuru.

ㅡTiring!

what? What else was left?

[Initial grade, random stats are given to dishes with 5 stars or higher due to the gourmet’s five senses effect.]

[When consuming ‘Fruit Bingtanghuru’, friendliness increases and the status ailment ‘Courage’ is granted to the target.]
