”Silva! Time to cook!”

”Really mama? Yaaay!”

I quickly summoned Silva to my side as I used her powers as the strongest Cooking Knife to have ever existed to cut down large cubes of meat from the big steaks I left behind at the side. Using [Dirt Block] I quickly created large tables made of stone and hardened rock, which I cleansed using Aquamarineʼs water and disinfected with [Purification].

Like that, I made an easy an incredibly resilient chopping board for immensely sized food. Silvaʼs power as a Cooking Knife had not been neglected even as sheʼs now a Dungeon Ego, in fact, she has improved, and she always says she prefers cooking than summoning and controlling an army of monsters.

”Chop! Chop! Chop!” Silva began making cute noises as she started chopping through everything.

And as we continued cutting more and more veggies by combining both of our Cooking Skills together and more, and then meat, suddenly, Silva shone with bright golden light.

Ding!

[Silva] has learned [Cooking Arts: Lv1] Skill!]

[Silva] learned the [Little Chef: Lv1] Title Skill!]

[You learned the [Cooking Arts: Lv1] Skill!]

”Cooking Arts?! W-What is this wonderful power I have gotten?!”

Amongst all worlds, thereʼs a Primordial Force that moves peopleʼs hearts, that moves peopleʼs desires, and that moves the indomitable human spirit towards greatness… And the name of this Primordial Force is Cooking!

Available Techniques:

Level 1: [Cooking Chop] [Spice Enhancement]

-----

”Holy shit Silva, this is it! THIS SKILL WAS LITERALLY MADE FOR US!” I celebrated.

”Yes! It was! Time to chop!” Said Silva.

She quickly utilized the power of [Cooking Chop] in unison with [Spice Enhancement] after we dropped all ingredients inside the cooking pot. We were making a simple dragon stew, with potatoes, carrots, and the like.

However, we decided to use some local products, such as the Bone Mushrooms and the Blood Mushrooms we picked up from the Mountains. The Bone Mushrooms grow mostly everywhere and have a milky flavor, with a lot of calcium they absorb from the bone mountain to grow.

Meanwhile, Blood Mushrooms only grow in large patches of Blood Crystals, and have a meaty, blood-like flavor that becomes like delicious, cooked meat once boiled. It was one of the various ingredients the Giants enjoyed from here.

”Ooh youʼre adding a bunch of Mushrooms, Kireina!” Brunhild seemed happy.

”Yes this is a Wyvern and Dragon Mushroom Stew, Mountain Style Cooking!” I said happily.

”Such a long name for just some simple stew…” Sighed Sol. ”Well, Iʼm glad sheʼs happy though.”

”Sheʼs always happy all the time!” Sighed Fiere.

”Heheh, and I can even produce more using the power of Yggdrasil Spirit!” I laughed.

This skill not only helped me boost the growth of any plant I wanted, but this also included mushrooms. So as long as I had a sample of one and their spores, it was very easy to just make them grow more and more.

So as long as I picked these mushrooms, using a lot of mana, thousands of it, I was able to grow them over the ground by the hundreds, I simply chopped them a bit and then threw them into the giant cube-sized pot I had made out with [Dirt Block].

The delicious smell of the stew and the grilled meat steaks quickly spread around, as everyone gathered around the fire to rest and have a meal. Weʼve got a lot of fights to come in the future, but it is never wrong to take a small rest, eat, and assess everything before continuing.

”Phew, it is nice to sit down after all of that chaos…” Sighed Brunhild.

”We couldnʼt even properly relax after all of that. Right after dealing with the Swarm Queen we suddenly got attacked by Frank, and then by the Wyverns and the Evil Dragon…” Sighed Ariant.

”We need our break. Maybe a sleep over a warm bed.” Sighed Eriant.

”Yeah, we need to rest well.” Sighed Brunhild.

”My entire body hurts…” Cried Fiere.

”Hahh… Iʼll take out my armor, I want to feel the air over my body, everythingʼs stiff…” Sol sighed.

I guess everyone was having a hard time with big battles every single second we stepped forward. Iʼll make sure to heal their pain and exhaustion with this delicious meal. Maybe a nap would do good after this. I wouldnʼt want them to collapse midway through…

”Ah! I found something… Maybe this could work?”

POOOF!

And then, we suddenly heard a big explosion of white smoke spreading everywhere. Luminous was suddenly gone. Nowhere to be seen.

”Huh? Whereʼs Luminous at?” I asked.

”I canʼt find him anywhere…” Said Ariant.

”Eh? Where is he?” Eriant asked.

”Lord Luminous?” Asked Fiere, the only one that addressed him with respect because she was an elf and he was known as the guardian of her country.

Suddenly, we heard footsteps get closer, and closer, until a small humanoid figure showed up.

Well, it wasnʼt small, at two and a half meters tall, it was a titan of a man.

The one that showed up was… a total stranger.

A lizard-faced guy covered on silver and white scales, and with golden horns over his head, and sharp blue eyes, with a single long tail.

”Ah, why do I look like this? It didnʼt work? But it said [Humanification]!” He sighed. ”Why can Kireina shapeshift so perfectly but I canʼt?”

It was Luminous voice!

And what did I heard?!

He bought a Skill named [Humanification] and turned into a human thing?

Well he looks more like a lizardman than a human though.

But whatʼs that skill anyways?! I had no idea it existed!
