Chapter 150

The Great Mage Rafielt's Cloak! It had an invisibility effect that could allow the user to attack the enemy undetected for two seconds. However, if the attack was made after the allotted two seconds then, the invisibility effect would be lifted and the mana consumption would be greater than what was expected. The cloak would consume 100MP per second as per normal.

First, Minhyuk placed Great Mage Rafielt's cloak to the side. He had to hurry and make haste since there would be another catastrophe tomorrow. And just like what Varen had said…

There's no time.

Minhyuk had now really started to cook without taking any rest. However, he was still quite happy every time he failed since he could still eat dak-galbi!

Varen might look like he hated iron for not becoming steel and was disgusted with his happiness but he couldn't scold him since he could see how hard he was trying for their sake.

And…

It was finally the day when Iris Guild would attack the dungeon and raid God Juis.

Iris Guild was currently under the spotlight. Today was the day where all of the users of Athenae in the country had their eyes on them.

Their dungeon attack squad had rallied their way in front of the dungeon of the Fallen God Juis and was now waiting for the right time to raid and attack the dungeon. Among these people was Han Taesung, he was the PD of Dungeon Attack Live.

'Kyaa! There are at least 30 rankers that have gathered here...! Amazing!'

Half of the people present were mercenaries while the remaining half were from Iris Guild. Of course, not all of the people present were rankers but there were also semi-rankers in their midst. Even though these semi-rankers did not have much of an influence in Athenae they could still deal plenty of damage against their opponent this time.

'The money that Iris Guild spent on this attack is enormous.'

It was something inevitable after all just the payment for the mercenary rankers were already beyond a normal person's imagination. In addition, the dungeon that was housing the Fallen God Juis was a huge dungeon that could easily accommodate at least 30~40 people in one go. A large-scale dungeon was more tricky and much harder to attack compared to normal dungeons.

'Even so, if Iris Guild and Louvert Guild will be successful in this SS-ranked dungeon raid quest then it will be a huge break for them.'

Han Taesung nodded his head as if he was agreeing wholeheartedly with his thoughts.

Not long after, the live broadcast in Dungeon Attack Live began.

"We are here in front of the dungeon where the corrupted God Juis is located. Right now, Iris Guild has taken the initiative to help the rest of the users and make it easier for the whole Northern Continent. They have given up their hunting and leveling up for days just to speed up their preparations to attack the dungeon. Iris Guild's Guild Master Callian-nim had spent plenty of money and incurred great losses just to hire rankers and mercenaries to join them in this quest today just to stop the catastrophe at the second catastrophe. They will also support the players with huge amounts of potions as well as the price for equipment maintenance."

PD Han Taesung immediately tooted his horn for Iris Guild to let the users know about their 'hardships' for them. And of course, their viewers responded to them well.

[GoodIris: I love you, Iris! Make sure you solve the catastrophe that will once again come to the Northern Continent!]

[AnotherTopHunt: It's seriously hot in here... Aren't they saying that if another catastrophe comes then the users should get out of the continent, right? May Iris succeed in conquering this dungeon...]

[Cardi: Iris Guild so cool! The first SS-ranked quest, kyaa! Sounds fun!]

The users watched the broadcast filled with interest. After a while, Han Taesung heard a whisper that he most wanted to hear.

[Henry: PD-nim, the viewer ratings are now over 20%!]

It was only the beginning but they have already reached 20%! They might even be able to get up to 40% in the viewer ratings today.

"We're starting!"

With Callian's words, the attack squad entered the dungeon one by one.

At the same time, when Iris Guild started their attack on the dungeon…

Varen, Eidni and Minhyuk were all speechless.

Unique ranked dishes had come up 20 consecutive times.

"...This is driving me crazy."

Right now, Varen was also informed that a guild had now entered the dungeon to appease the wrathful god Juis.

It had now become more problematic for them. Not long ago, they encountered a problem in Valkyrie Kingdom but the people that they suspected to have sabotaged them were attacking the dungeon? And they even wanted to damage the body of God Juis? It couldn't be done! But it would also be a problem if they failed since they would face the second catastrophe soon. The best way to get out of this situation was Minhyuk and his cooking.

[Unique Ranked...]

[Unique Ranked...]

[Unique Ranked...]

Minhyuk continuously failed. His nerves were already frayed in anxiety and he couldn't even help but sweat.

When he peeked at the GC window…

[Guild Chatting Crow: It seems that attacking the dungeon was harder than what we thought... There are plenty of rankers in their midst but they still haven't gone past the entrance...]

[Guild Chatting Locke: They're just wasting their potions, hehehe. Are they drinking the Grass' Dew Potion like powerade? Isn't that potion about 3 platinum per bottle? Wow, and they're just spraying it like that.]

[Guild Master Genie: They have betted Iris Guild's life and death this time, and...]

Genie did not finish her sentence but Minhyuk knew what she wanted to say.

Iris Guild would definitely get a larger return if they succeeded in this quest. Promotional effects, hordes of users wanting to join their guild, Ballad's cup and many others, this would be the effect of a guild that could overcome and appease a catastrophe.

And Minhyuk…

'I have to do it.'

He had a reason to do so. A very crucial reason…

Sushi. And not only sushi, he also had one dish that he wanted to cook with the help of Ballad's cup.

'If I can eat sushi dipped in wasabi and hot sauce partnered with a sip of a delicious and savory hot soup... Kgghk! I have to do it, I must...!'

But it wasn't an easy task.

Back when Hyemin'sDad made a legendary artifact, he also experienced plenty of setbacks but his luck played a great role in him completing such an artifact in a short amount of time. However, it was never an easy task.

Time continuously flowed and his failures kept on piling up.

[Guild Chatting Locke: They have reached the center of the dungeon but they are dying one by one...]

[Guild Chatting Khan: Serves you right, you sons of bitches!]

[Guild Master Genie: hehehehe. Just thinking about the penalty… their guild will definitely suffer a lot.]

The dungeon attack squad had already reached the middle of the dungeon and they were slowly heading towards the place where God Juis' corrupted spirit was located.

Minhyuk sighed deeply. He knew that he needed to clear his head for a moment before going back to cooking. This was already the fourth day and Minhyuk had not rested or slept at all. His favorability with Varen, Eidni and Perle had even reached the maximum because they could see his efforts for their kingdom. After closing his eyes for a moment, Minhyuk stood back up and began his arduous cooking once more.

He carefully added the cabbage, mixed chicken meat, sweet potato, carrots, onions and the rest of the ingredients in the round pan. Then, he started stir-frying all of the ingredients.

Sizzle!

As the sound of the sizzling ingredients grew louder and louder, Minhyuk thought carefully about the dish named dak-galbi.

'Isn't it the world's cheapest course meal?'

The first course was the meat. You could eat just the meat, wrap it in lettuce, add some ssamjang, garlic and you could eat a dak-galbi wrap. Then you could eat it together with the additional ingredients… seasoned udon noodles, sweet and flavorful sweet potato, and even the chewy sujebi. After eating all of that? Then you could add some rice and stir fry it with the sauce. The last course would be the fried rice sprinkled with seaweed flakes. The seaweed flakes that would dance in the heat would add more flavor to the rice. Then, you would press the rice before scooping up a bite and chewing it carefully. And once in a while, you would eat the frozen dongchimi that would definitely give you a refreshing break from the greasy flavor of the stir-fried dish. Just like that, dak-galbi was an excellent and satisfying dish.

Minhyuk's forehead was dotted with sweat. His nervousness coupled with his extreme concentration had already soaked himself in sweat. He quickly wiped off the sweat with the sleeves of his shirt as he continued cooking.

[Guild Chatting Khan: It's the boss room. Ah... We're in trouble.]

At the same time as Khan's message came, Minhyuk had also finished the dish in his hand.

[You have completed a Dak-galbi.]

[Juis' dish is the only dish with the buff effect.]

[The Create a Recipe Skill Effect can only be tasted by the same person once per month.]

[Trance. It's a dish that has your 'efforts', 'passion' and 'desire to create a better dish' poured into it.]

[Due to the effects of Trance, the buff effect has become better.]

[Legendary Grade.]

[You have gained 30 DEX.]

[You have gained 200 reputation points.]

[You have gained 5,000 Achievement Points.]

[You have made the very first Legendary Dish.]

[You have gained the Title: 'The Man Who Created a Legend.']

[You have acquired +2 on all your basic stats.]

[The Man Who Created a Legend can place his or her name or nickname on the dish.]

[Please specify a name or a nickname.]

It had finally come out!

A legendary dish!

Minhyuk pondered deeply about his nickname before opening his mouth.

"M."

[Do you wish to use 'M' as your nickname?]

"Yes."

Isn't it nice if the name you have entered is easy?

Just as he entered his nickname, he also quickly checked his rewards. The rewards for making a legendary dish was truly enormous. His reputation had increased by 200 points in a single go, it was like when he successfully hunted Rumad too. On top of that, he was also able to gain another title. Back when he received the title The Man Who Hunted One of the Most Powerful Men he received an effect that increases his stats by 10% whenever he was fighting an opponent that was 100 levels higher than him. And for The Man Who Created a Legend? He quickly checked the title.

Unique Title

Restrictions: The Man Who Created a Legend

Title Effects:

━ An increase of x2 in the probability of making a legendary dish.

It was quite a good title. After he checked the title, Minhyuk quickly checked the legendary dish.

(Dak-galbi)

Storage Time: 65 days

Preservation Time: 60 days

━ God Juis' Blessings +6

━ Holy Power x2.

Description: This is a legendary dish made by Chef M. It is a dish that has only appeared once in the past. Chef M has made this dish to satisfy and feed God Juis.

"...Wow."

Minhyuk had always easily exclaimed whenever he was confronted with food but the only thing that he could utter right now was a sound of admiration.

Her skills will be increased by +6? In addition, her holy power which is the crystallization of God's body has increased by x2!

God Juis would definitely acquire a great deal of holy power with just this dish alone. Her holy power was already unimaginable, how great would it be with that x2?

Soon, Minhyuk realized that it wasn't the time to admire the dish.

Varen and Eidni had also realized that something strange had happened when Minhyuk finished making the dish. It was because a strong light enveloped the dish after he finished plating it.

"D, don't tell me...?"

"Let's go. It already came out!"

Before they left for the temple, Varen wanted to check on the dish because he was curious.

"Can I look at it?"

Minhyuk nodded his head in agreement.

Varen quickly checked the dak-galbi but... he was only left speechless.

"Your highness?"

Varen only came back to his senses when Minhyuk called out to him. Then he nodded his head at him. As he ran with Minhyuk, a thought flashed in his head.

'I want to eat it too...'

PD Han Taesung's mouth was almost ripped in two with how wide he was grinning. He was forced to log out of the dungeon together with the others but he was still extremely happy.

"Kyaa! Our viewer ratings are over 38%!!!"

There were plenty of viewers watching their broadcast.

Tension that could bring a chill down one's spine!

Rankers' abilities!

And monsters that were as powerful as the rankers!

The rest of the users had finally entered the boss room and they could see that the boss monster, Wrathful God Juis was extremely strong. The corrupted holy power that leaked out of her body constantly could instantly rot the users' skin and could let them fall under an abnormal state.

'Hunting Juis had brought us a huge promotional effect, what if they were able to get the rewards?'

The viewers would definitely cheer.

Meanwhile…

[Keuaaack!]

Another user was forced to log out and only four people were left in the boss room. The only people left were Black, Callian and two other Iris Guild guild members.

Callian went all out just to save Black. Even though the dish was already cooked, they thought that it would have a better effect if he showed him cooking.

Callian winked at his guild members.

[Aaaaaaaaargh!]

[Beast's blade!]

The guild members squeezed the last of their energies to attack the Wrathful God Juis. No, to be exact, they ran in front of God Juis to take the bullet for Callian and Black.

"Sacrifice of the few for the many. Kgghk!"

Han Taesung was quite impressed that the guild members threw themselves in front of God Juis.

[Keuaaaack!]

[Graaaaaaack!]

Their bodies were ripped to shreds with just one touch from God Juis.

At that moment, Callian moved.

Slash!

[Aaaaaaaaargh!]

It was Juis' scream.

And the voices of the guild members who fell down rang loudly as if they were in synch.

[Y, you must succeed!]

[The Northern Continent must be explored with safety. Do it for all of the distressed users...!]

It sounded as weird as someone reading their lines roughly from a script but the audience ears would not recognize this irregularity. They could only see Juis falling down in front as Callian held his sword firmly.

[I'll surely put the catastrophe out of everyone's sight!]

His sword was engulfed with a bright light as he squeezed out his final strength and ran straight towards Juis. He successfully stabbed Juis' chest! Juis staggered back as Callian pulled out his sword and tried to slash at her abdomen.

"He kil...!"

As Han Taesung started to declare his success, something happened…

[Shwaaaaa!]

God Juis bursted in a flash of bright light and disappeared in front of them.

"H, huh... W, what the hell? Did he kill her?"

Han Taesung tilted his head in confusion before turning his head to the people behind him.

"His sword did not reach her yet, though...?"

They saw the same scene as what Taesung saw and they were sure that the sword did not stab her yet.

"W, what the hell?!"

The broadcasting station was suddenly turned upside down with chaos.

Callian was also looking around suspiciously.

And even the viewer's message board was exploding in comments. All of them were saying that they were certain that the attack did not push through and they were wondering why Juis suddenly disappeared.

Right now, the words of the users, the viewers, the broadcasters and the members of Iris Guild were all one and the same.

[GoodIris: W, what...?]
