I Became a Servant the Dragons Are Obsessed With

536 – Side story) The taste that captivates a lover

-Whoop… !

‘This taste… … ?’

As soon as the warm soybean paste stew touches your taste buds, a tingling electric current passes through your entire body. After all, it’s been two years since I tasted soybean paste stew.

I couldn’t help but be surprised by the taste of soybean paste that I had tasted for the first time in a long time.

My eyes light up at the savory and rich taste.

Is it because it’s been a while since I ate this food?

The taste was beyond surprising and admirable.

Regardless of the fact that it was made by Jeon So-rim, it was objectively an excellent food. So much so that I can sell it right away.

I liked soybean paste stew.

I don’t usually like soybean paste stew that much, but an inexplicable deep emotion resonates down my esophagus and through my body.

And above all, the taste was delicious… … .

ㅡTiring!

[Zucchini Soybean Paste Stew – ✮✮]

[You have discovered a new ability given to ‘Zucchini Soybean Paste Stew’!]

“──?!”

Suddenly a system message appears.

Even if the star rating comes to mind… … .

You discovered a new ability?

I couldn’t help but be surprised once again.

Because it was an alarm I had never seen before.

As expected, assigning abilities to food was something that only I, who possessed the unique skill of ‘the five senses of a gourmet’, could do.

… But what are the abilities of the zucchini soybean paste stew?

This was something that did not happen even the last time I encountered 10-star kimchi.

‘There is no way Shaolin would have given abilities to food. The system message also said that abilities were ‘discovered’, so maybe… … .’

… It was when I thought about it in my head.

ㅡTiring!

[Newly discovered ability: The taste of captivating a lover.]

[When you learn the recipe for ‘Zucchini Soybean Paste Stew’, you will be able to apply the corresponding ability to dishes rated ‘✮✮’ or higher.]

I knew it… … .

I finally understand it now.

For a moment, I wondered if the skill was applicable to me.

However, as I expected, I ended up discovering new abilities. Of course, if I wanted to, I could acquire the corresponding ability.

Anyway, it’s amazing because it’s my first time doing something like this.

Learning the recipe wasn’t an awkward task,

Now, it is possible to acquire abilities from food prepared by others… … .

Is there a story behind this seemingly ordinary soybean paste stew?

ㅡTiring!

‘hmm? ‘What else is left?’

I thought the additional explanation window would pop up only after I finished eating the stew, but then a series of translucent message windows appeared before my eyes.

[A taste that captivates lovers – a special traditional food that turns lovers into husband and wife. The specialness of this food lies in the long-aged soybean paste, but more importantly, it lies in the sincere heart of the person who made it.]

[When you consume food with the corresponding ability value, you will immediately achieve the ‘worship’ level, which is a level of favorability that is appropriate for forming a marital relationship with the target.]

[However, it can only be activated on the person who is connected to the caster (favorability level is ‘favorable’ or higher)!]

A fairly detailed explanation comes to mind.

To put it simply, it’s a likeability buff.

To put it romantically, it was the perfect food for a proposal.

Once you acquire this ability, you can apply it to other foods, not just soybean paste stew, so it’s not a bad ability… … .

‘… No? ‘Maybe it’s an ability I don’t need?’

That’s because I don’t think I’ll be able to handle it if there are more women here. Moreover, she did not have the confidence to withstand the pressure of other wives.

If I get a chance later, I will apply it to Sorim, who is still in the ‘blind faith’ stage.

“… Jihoon? Seong Ji-hoon!”

At that time, a voice reached my ear.

Sorim wakes me up from my flashback.

It must have looked strange for me to stand still while holding a spoon across from me.

“hmm..? “What’s wrong with you all of a sudden?”

“Why are you doing that? Why are you with such a blank expression? And he was just staring at me… … ?”

“aha?”

I was concentrating to read the system message, but Sorim must have felt that I was looking at him in his field of vision.

-Whew!

Sorim blushed and lowered her gaze, probably because she was embarrassed by my gaze.

“It’s nothing else. “I did it because the soybean paste stew you made was so delicious.”

“… What? Is that really true?”

“of course! Is this really delicious? “It was only for a moment, but it was enough to make my body stiffen without me even realizing it?”

“Hmm..! Joe, I feel good because you like it… … .”

When I blurt it out with a compliment, Sorim shrugs his shoulders with a satisfied expression.

“Could you please tell me the soybean paste stew recipe later? “It’s so delicious that I want to learn and sell it.”

“Joe, okay. It won’t be difficult. As expected, it was good to prepare early in the morning. Ehehehe… … ♡”

Sorim looks happy with a bright expression on my face when I hear a word of praise. While twitching the corner of his mouth.

I tried to hold back laughter at Derke and Leylin’s notice, but it didn’t seem to work as well as I wanted.

“But Shaolin? This soybean paste stew… … . “Did you learn it from your mother?”

“uh? “How did you know that?”

“It feels a little different from the soybean paste sold in the market.”

“Oh, you’re sharp? “It is true that I learned the recipe from my mother, but I got the soybean paste from my grandmother’s house.”

“So, are you still making your own soybean paste these days?”

“huh! My mom is a good cook, just like my grandmother. Of course, I also learned it from my mom.”

In some ways, cooking skills seem to be hereditary.

Soybean paste stew that has been passed down for three generations.

There was a reason why it was delicious.

It’s a dish that even contains the original soybean paste, so it can’t help but be delicious.

“My grandfather fell in love with the taste of this soybean paste stew right away… … .”

“Is that true?”

“Doesn’t it sound funny to you? No matter how good your grandmother’s cooking is, she fell in love with the taste of the food and even got married at a young age… … . “Isn’t it funny?”

Sorim chuckles and mutters.

As if it were a ridiculous joke.

But I knew right away.

This is not an exaggerated story.

“No, I completely understand.”

“what?”

“If you have this level of skill, it’s enough to make you fall in love. like me.”

“Yes..? “What are you saying now?”

“Anyway, I’ll eat the other things as well! “I have to taste them one by one before they get cold!”

After saying that, I deliberately looked away. Because I could feel Derke and Leylin’s murderous gaze through the statement I just made.

Even if you are in a relationship, you should refrain from being affectionate in front of other wives as much as possible.

-Thrill! Thing!

While Derke and Raylin are eating, they glance at Sorim from the corner of their eyes.

‘Keuhum, by the way, I never thought this soybean paste stew would have such a story… … .’

The name of the ability was not ‘Taste to captivate a lover’ for no reason.

-Whoop!

It’s been a while since I’ve seen soybean paste stew, and it flows down my esophagus. The cozy scent that lingers at the tip of your nose stimulates your appetite.

The soybean paste stew had an exquisite combination of zucchini, tofu, onions, peppers, and pork scraps.

Although the materials were not diverse,

This alone was already a feast.

If you serve white rice with kimchi, you won’t be envious of the king’s surasang.

“Aren’t all the other side dishes also top-notch? delicious… !”

Not everyone was good at soybean paste stew, but

The side dishes were above 7 stars on average.

It was a feast of side dishes that can be enjoyed at home.

Simple but impressive foods come together to enrich the table.

To be honest, I think it tastes much better than the home-cooked food my mom made. That’s because in our family, on the other hand, my father was the better cook.

Maybe I too take after my father.

anyway… … .

ㅡWagu wagu wagu… … !

ㅡHaaap..! Tsk tsk tsk!

I’m glad Leylin and Derke also enjoyed the meal.

I guess they were both very hungry because they had been helping with the cooking since morning. How dare you eat with your head down in your rice bowl.

“Hyaaa..! It’s been a long time since I had such a hearty meal! “It’s much more delicious than the food at the Academy restaurant!”

Raylin, who has already finished eating a bowl of rice, pats Sorim, who is sitting next to her, on the shoulder and praises her.

“What~! “Thank you for enjoying the meal!”

“The more I look at it, the more I like it? If I were a man, I might have fallen in love… … ?

“Ahaha..! “Anyway, would you like another bowl of rice?”

“huh! please-!”

“Then just wait a moment. By the way, Derke, what about you? Does it suit your taste?”

Sorim, who was standing up with a bowl of rice, asked Derke a question.

“Huuum..! Even though it is lacking compared to my brother’s skills… … .”

“Even if it’s not enough?”

“… “Wow, it’s delicious.”

Derke answers after serious consideration.

He couldn’t even tell a lie.

I guess he thought to himself that it wasn’t a bit of a forced check.

“Oh really? thank god… ! “Then would you like to have another bowl?”

“… Ugh. Joe, please give me a little more.”

Jeon So-rim’s affability was amazing.

His social skills were not like that of someone just starting out in society.

Leylin was already on Sorim’s side,

Derke, who had been quietly keeping Sorim in check, was also slowly falling apart due to her cooking skills.

“Okay~! Then just wait a moment. “I’ll bring it to you right away!”

Jeon So-rim bursts out in joy when she sees Derke offering her a bowl of rice. She accepts the rice bowl with a cheerful voice.

This may be because everyone is caught up in the plan set by Sorim. He also took care of my meals and at the same time earned points for Derke and Leylin.

That was when Sorim left for a moment to bring food.

“… what? But why didn’t you two even touch this?”

While I was tasting various side dishes, there was only an unusually large amount of fried yonggari left.

When I think about it again, it seems like only Sorim and I ate it. Derke and Leylin didn’t even bother to look at the fried yonggari.

If it is not food made by Sorim himself,

Is it because they use off-the-shelf frozen products?

There is a good chance that dragons are picky eaters.

“I wasn’t going to say it, but it looks disgusting… … .”

“huh? what?”

“Derke is right. Black man? “Are you sure this isn’t really made with dragon meat?”

“Ah… … ?”
