82 Create a Recipe for Me

Upon Minhyuk’s appearance, all of ATV broadcasting station’s cameras rushed to film him.

With the previous contract between Legend Guild and ATV broadcasting station still in effect, they still needed to fulfill the contents of their contract while being able to receive lots of money. Because of this, they would not have any sanctions and restrictions even if they filmed Minhyuk.

The commentators shouted excitedly. However, they only cheered at his splendid appearance.

Along with comments that praised the return of God Food God Minhyuk, comments that raised various concerns also began to appear one by one.

Barach was still not dead, and the users’ reaction seemed to only be natural.

Meanwhile, Minhyuk, who had approached Alicia and Genie earlier, looked back at them before rushing towards Barach.

Bathump, bathump―

Alicia liked Minhyuk. He was a cheerful, bright and wonderful person who taught her how to have fun. However, Alicia had always thought that it was just a ‘fleeting’ feeling.

She had been the envy of the public for a long time and had long grown up faster than the others. She knew that there was no other emotion that could cool down and disappear quickly except for like. Of course, it was true that she was grateful to Minhyuk. And it was also true that she liked him as a person. However, her heart was just pounding a bit slightly and it was not enough to call it something serious.

However, her thoughts changed the moment she saw Minhyuk appear here before stabbing a huge scythe on Barach’s chest and retrieving it casually. The thumping of her heart increased in intensity and she couldn’t take her eyes off of Minhyuk.

That was when she realized…

‘I think I’m really in love… with this man…’

“Are you alright?”

Minhyuk asked them as he smiled brightly. Alicia just nodded her head blankly. Minhyuk nodded his head at her.

“I will give it my all so stay away and go to the rear for now.”

“…Yes.”

The moment Minhyuk turned his head away, the sunlight fell on his face. It illuminated his high nose bridge, soft eyes and pretty smile. He looked so admirable under the bright ray of the sun.

While Alicia was busy thinking like that…

‘Did the number of my competitors increase? Tch!’

Genie sighed.

But Alicia hurriedly spoke when Minhyuk ran out.

“Wait…! That guy is not something that you can hunt alone!!!”

Barach’s skin was extremely thick and his defense was beyond one’s imagination. Even if one got lucky and landed a strike, their physical defense and magical defense would be greatly reduced with Barach’s flame which in turn would cause a lot of damage.

However, Minhyuk did not look like he heard her words as he continued to run.

Then, Genie spoke.

“It’s fine.”

“Yes?”

Alicia turned her head to look at Genie.

“Minhyuk never fights recklessly.”

Alicia could not understand what she meant.

“He’s not a fool who’s just burning for justice.”

Alicia truly couldn’t understand her. Minhyuk was an innocent man who liked food and smiled brighter than anybody else. In fact, Alicia did not really know what kind of man Minhyuk truly was. On the other hand, Genie knew him well.

‘Victory.’

He would only run to Barach like that if he was sure of that.

Barach gripped his chest.

The commentators were horrified.

And Minhyuk, who was approaching Barach, thought…

‘Is the reason why Barach was stabbed on his chest earlier because the judgement was triggered?’

This question flashed in his head.

Based on what was stated in the special abilities of Diablo’s scythe, there was only an 8% chance of triggering a judgement upon successful attack. When judgement was triggered, he would be able to inflict an additional 400% damage. A while ago, judgement was triggered when the scythe stabbed through Barach’s chest which resulted in a powerful damage. Even his attack speed had increased by 180% since he summoned Diablo’s scythe.

Then, Barach’s whip flew towards Minhyuk.

Shwaaaaaaak―

Minhyuk quickly used Like the Wind. He narrowly avoided the attack and closed the distance between them at the same time. He also swung Diablo’s scythe that was connected to the chain on his hands.

Shwa, shwa, shwa, shwaaa―

Diablo’s scythe moved freely and fluidly as it stabbed Barach’s body here and there. But just like what Minhyuk had expected, he was unable to break through Barach’s defenses.

‘Just how good is his defense…?’

Minhyuk had Diablo’s sword with him. Thanks to this Devil Judge’s Sword, there was at least a 1,000 increase in his attack power since his attack power was added on top of his overwhelming stats. But despite that, he was still unable to pierce through Barach’s thick skin.

Claaaaang―

Minhyuk quickly raised his arms up after digging down with his scythe. The scythe started from Barach’s lower body and went upwards but only sparks came out from the attack. And as if to annoy Minhyuk, a change happened in Barach.

Minhyuk was shocked. Even the rest of the people who heard the notification were shocked.

‘He’s getting stronger even at this point…?’

The commentators shouted in agitation.

Then, at that moment…

Shwaaaaaa―

Barach’s whip flew even faster.

Swish!

Bang―

Minhyuk evaded the attack. But a huge flame exploded at the place where the whip fell down. It was as if a bomb had fallen at the exact same spot. Minhyuk quickly used Like the Wind to escape even further. But the iron mace in Barach’s other hand suddenly moved.

Baaaaaaaang―

Minhyuk narrowly avoided the gigantic iron mace, but…

Crack, crack, crack!

The ground shook and cracked, which broke Minhyuk’s balance. Barach used the opportunity to smash his iron mace towards Minhyuk’s face.

Then…

Shwaaaaaaaak!

Three black kitchen knives flew in and collided with the iron mace.

Crack!

A baby piggy appeared right in front of Minhyuk after the space had been torn.

“Oiiink!”

Then, Kongie kicked the ground with his tiny feet.

Kongie had now undergone two awakenings and had already grown close to the speed of light. This was the speed that he displayed as he rushed towards Barach and pressured him with the black kitchen knife in his hand.

“Oiiiiiink!”

A thought flashed in Minhyuk’s head as he watched Kongie fight.

‘It’s too early to use the Oven of Destruction’s skill.’

The Oven of Destruction’s skill could allow him to tie up his opponent’s strongest skill or whatever skill he targeted for five minutes. However, he thought that this should only be used when he was sure that he could kill him. In a situation where their attacks did not work, they needed to do something that could give them a chance of winning.

‘Explosion?’

The Devil Judge’s sword had the power to increase its attack power dramatically. However, Minhyuk had never used explosion. So he wondered if this power was enough to kill the monster in front of him.

If not, is there anything else?

Then… a thought passed in Minhyuk’s head.

‘Come to think of it I…’

He had been using his Create a Recipe Skill to feed other people excellent buffed dishes. But he had never used the Create a Recipe Skill on him. Not even once.

‘Why didn’t I think of that?’

Minhyuk’s thoughts turned calm. Looking around, he could see that it was nigh impossible to kill Barach with their current strength.

‘Then…’

Minhyuk hurriedly shouted.

“Everyone, gather around me!”

The surviving members of the Legend Guild, Alicia and other rankers were busy fighting against the other demons and demonic beasts.They knew that a rabbit would only intervene in a fight between beasts so they tried to use their strength and helped in a direction that they could maximize their power.

Hearing Minhyuk’s shout, everyone moved quickly. As soon as everyone had started to move towards Minhyuk, he quickly activated the ‘Oven of Destruction’’s skill ‘Oven of Disaster’. At that moment…

A timer suddenly appeared in the air as the sound rang loudly in the surrounding area.

Tick, tick, tick, tick.

Countless rankers ran around Minhyuk.

“Ruuuuun!”

“There’s no other way except for Minhyuk-nim!”

Many of the surviving rankers were from the Sun Guilds. But right now, they knew that they did not have the power to focus on who would hunt Barach. Their problem right now was to find a way to survive then think of a way to hunt Barach.

The commentators looked at each other as if they were trying to remember where they heard this sound before. Then, one of the commentators shouted ‘Ah!’.

Even the comments section was filled with doubt about this.

Meanwhile, one of the viewers posted a key comment.

Then, at that moment…

Ding!

A cheerful ding! resounded as if to tell that the cooking was finally over. And the demons and demonic beasts that chased the Legend Guild and the others, even Barach who was standing in the middle…

Were engulfed in a tremendous explosion.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

The scene looked like there were countless missiles being fired in the area. It seemed like the explosion was equipped with a spell that recognized enemies since all of their opponents that got hit disappeared without a form. The small explosions generated a tremendous power that had 450% additional attack power. This was the power of the second in the Absolute Half-God artifacts, the Oven of Destruction.

Shwaaaaaaaaaa―

The wind that blew in the surrounding blew the dust that the explosion had created and showed the surrounding area. More than 70% of the demons and demonic beasts disappeared without a form while 20% fell into a state that made them unable to fight. Even Barach was staggering from the shock of the explosion.

The commentators were speechless at the sight while the comments section turned calm. They were all lost for words from the tremendous power that was shown. Then, one of the commentators slowly opened his mouth and said…

And with his words as the catalyst, the comments section suddenly started to flood and explode with comments.
