Max Level Miscellaneous Character - CH 44
Ivan and Delfino stayed in the village of Lizardmen for a few days and rested well. At the same time, he recovered his body and mind, which had been exhausted from intense battles.
Although there was damage, they found the altar of the sleeping snake god Morna and felt her gaze. That’s why they gave their utmost consideration so that Ivan and Delfino could stay without a lack of anything.
However, if there was one disappointment, it was the food.
They couldn’t adapt with the food culture of the Lizardmen.
Apart from having a good sense of sight and smell, they do not have a developed sense of taste. Because of that, their meals were meant to fill their stomachs, and there was no particular taste.
It was eaten raw, or sometimes cooked over a fire.
That was all. There is no such thing as seasoning.
Ivan and Delfino did not have a very luxurious taste. However, it was not easy to eat the intestines of a deer dripping with blood or a frog caught during winter hibernation.
Eventually, Ivan opened the inventory.
“Come to think of it, I’ve talked about gomtang before. I’ll try making that one.”
He made a fire and placed a large pot on top. Then, the beef bones were boiled and the meat was cooked. It took a lot of work, but the fragrant smell wafted out, so it felt like the effort was being rewarded.
When I took a bite of pickled vegetables similar to kimchi that I bought at a certain store, the taste was very good. Drinking hot soup in winter seemed to relax my body.
Ivan and Delfino were cooking and eating like that, and sometimes Ferocious Tooth came and ate together.
“Human food is fun, but do you really need to spend so much time making it?”
“Well, it’s for the taste.”
Delfino, who was about to explain, bit his mouth. It was a puzzled expression, not knowing what to explain.
“You have to move too much to eat. You need a lot of clean water and a lot of firewood to make a fire. I don’t know why you do that to fill your stomach.”
For humans, food is not just to satisfy hunger. It is a pleasant act that makes you feel happy in itself.
To prove that, Ivan made and served his secret soup, but Ferocious Tooth only tilted his head.
After all, his taste buds weren’t very sensitive, so he didn’t seem to notice any particular taste. He just felt amazed because it’s a new taste.
“It doesn’t taste very chewy, but the warm soup isn’t bad. By the way, wouldn’t it be okay to just drink hot water?”
Unfortunately, Ivan, who had not mastered cooking skills, thought he would not be able to impress him.
