After a thrilling and intense battle, El opened and closed his eyes and returned to the real world, where the familiar dining table was still in front of him.
"I was on a vast grassland, watching a group of minotaurs farming and digging for vegetables."
Moreover, the minotaur was even scrubbing me, and I ended up having a real, hand-to-hand fight with him…”
El paused for a moment. Why would he have such a dream?
It's too outrageous, too abstract. Even if he knew that it was because he ate the glowing dish he made, and that his body, mind, and the power contained in the dish resonated with each other, it was still quite strange.
Am I conscious?
Of course, such a thought only lingered in his mind for a moment before disappearing quickly.
After all, the food in front of them was still hot, and the aroma had not diminished at all despite being out of the pot for a while.
It remains as intense and overwhelming as ever.
"Since things have come to this, let's eat first."
Of the three dishes I finished today, the braised beef still needs some time, but the tomato beef brisket and handmade beef ball soup can be devoured in one go.
With Al's voracious appetite, the tomato beef brisket, which would normally be enough for three or four people, was completely devoured, and the handmade beef balls were also eaten clean, with the soup still on them.
"It's nothing. Finishing the food is the greatest respect you can show to the ingredients and the chef."
Delicious food shouldn't be wasted.
After finishing the meal, El felt a surge of power flowing into his body.
This feeling had occurred countless times before, but this was the first time it had been so intense.
"I'm absolutely ecstatic!"
He could feel the powerful force emanating from his body!
[Entry: Glowing Cuisine; Entry: You are what you eat (triggered)]
[Consuming homemade dishes, specifically the glowing dish Tomato Beef Brisket/Handmade Beef Ball Soup, grants moderate recovery of life force, stamina, and temporary strength, as well as a slight increase in constitution. It also grants a small amount of permanent enhancement to life force, strength, constitution, recovery speed, and burst damage.]
Minotaur truly lives up to its reputation as a monster several times stronger than a slime; its value is unmatched by ordinary creatures like slimes.
Just one meal of minotaur cuisine had a stat boost to El that was equivalent to several days' worth of slime cuisine.
El clenched his fists, feeling as if he could kill a bull right now...
Well, I guess you can't say that. He was capable of it anyway.
Let's use another analogy: right now, he could probably kill that minotaur with one punch.
(Minotaur: Feed me peanuts!)
Incidentally, El also thought of a problem.
Since minotaurs are stronger than slimes, the dishes they make are also more effective than those made from slimes.
So, would consuming more advanced monster food bring even more powerful effects?
Minotaur are only mid-tier monsters; the books only mention them briefly as demonic dragons, fire demons, and even the legendary demon king...
"That's great, I'm starting to understand everything."
Although his idea was very bold, everyone should have dreams.
"My next target is the vampire in the castle, and his gargoyle followers."
