Solo Eating to Overpowered

52:

I gained Great Sage Siolas as my teacher.

The smile did not leave X’s mouth.

‘You can become stronger!’

Even now, in certain situations, X can be said to be the strongest among Fate users. The growth rate so far is also incomparable to other users.

However, the results are all poor. X was a man who was willing to throw away his pride if he could benefit from it. Of course, if he had just ignored it, things would have been different, but didn’t Sioras personally offer to help him?

Sioras said as he cleaned up his desk.

“X Can I keep this book and ring? I think you will be able to interpret it perfectly by the end of your training. “I will transfer the contents to another book.”

“of course. “If you do that, I would be grateful.”

“Then come closer and hold my hand.”

“I understand, Master!”

At Sioras’s words, X advanced.

Sioras held out both hands and X placed his hands on them.

Gooooo! Subtle mana flowed from Sioras’ body.

‘Never lag behind Liglian!’

The destructive mana unleashed by Ligrien! It was similar to Mana, but its nature was completely opposite. If Ligrien’s mana intimidated the opponent, Sioras’ mana seemed to comfort them. X felt as if Mana was kindly caring for his body.

Sioras closed his eyes and clicked his tongue.

“Tsk, how have you handled your powers so far?”

“…yes?”

“The power it still possesses is enormous, but its ability to handle that power is quite poor. The blood flow in a significant part of the body is blocked. Hmm….”

The blood is blocked. X was startled by Sioras’ words.

Isn’t this something you would only hear at an oriental medicine clinic? X, curious, asked cautiously.

“Hey, Master. “What exactly is blood?”

“Ah, it goes without saying that you don’t know. This is a concept I learned hundreds of years ago when I first visited the Eastern Continent. “Let’s see, how should I explain it?”

East Continent!

Afterwards, Sioras explained the concept of blood in an easy-to-understand manner, but it did not reach X’s ears. There is a place called the East Continent in Fate. Because X was completely distracted by that fact.

‘As expected, other continents also exist.’

Fate has been open for less than a year. There is probably no one who knows anything about other continents. However, X realized faster than anyone else that the East Continent existed!

‘…Let’s monopolize the Eastern Continent as well.’

I will monopolize the continent all by myself!

That time when X was gulping down kimchi soup.

Sioras let go of X’s hand.

“It’s important to build new skills, but you also need to learn how to properly use the skills you’ve built up. “The road ahead will be bright and clear.”

“How to handle it properly…?”

“Yes, in order to do that, the top priority is to unclog the blocked blood vessels. I will teach you how to breathe. “If you get used to it, it will be a great help in handling powerful abilities.”

Breathing techniques that help you manage your abilities!

I thought it would probably help pierce the bloodstream and enable me to use my abilities properly. X is not the type of person to shy away from giving information. Sioras sat down and placed both fists on his knees. X imitated Sioras’ posture.

“Painting images is important.”

“Image…”

X listened to Sioras’ explanation and tried to follow his breathing technique. Although it was similar to existing breathing, it was also subtly different, so if I didn’t concentrate, my breathing quickly became distracted. Because they were similar, it was actually more difficult to follow them.

‘You shouldn’t disappoint from the beginning.’

I will become the Great Sage’s favorite disciple. That way, you will be able to gain and learn more and get more information about the Eastern Continent! X’s concentration, full of desire, was truly terrifying.

Sioras glanced at X and swallowed his admiration.

‘You have talent.’

It is a breathing method that took a long time for Sioras himself to get used to.

However, X was breathing steadily within a short period of time. Not only that.

‘It’s this kind of energy even when I can’t use my abilities properly.’

The title Great Sage was not given for nothing.

The reason why people-loving Sioras came to live in a remote lighthouse was simple.

Because there were not many people who could accept his voice, which contained the power of time. Some people complained of dizziness just by talking to Sioras, and many people fainted even when Sioras released mana for a short period of time.

‘Hehe, I can’t believe you can flatter me in front of me too.’

For Sioras, who had lived for hundreds of years, X’s flattery was naturally something that could be seen at a glance. However, Sioras did not view X negatively. Rather, I thought his guts were amazing.

‘You’ve chosen an interesting successor.’

Sioras grinned and stood up.

He said to X, who concentrated on his breathing.

“Listen while keeping your breathing steady. Now that we know that others are active again, we have no time to relax. “I would like to wait until you get used to the breathing technique, but I have no choice but to be greedy.”

X is second to none in terms of greed.

X answered while maintaining his breathing.

“Just say the word. “I am ready, Master!”

How can you keep breathing while talking?

Sioras swallowed his admiration once again. However, hasty praise can make a student arrogant.

Sioras cleared his throat and explained the plan.

“Hmm. The recipe of the king of gourmet food that I know. “We need to find the first ingredient, so get moving as soon as the sun rises.”

“It’s not difficult. “But what is the first ingredient?”

“That is…”

Sioras pointed with his finger to the sea beyond the lighthouse.

X tilted his head and asked again.

“…seafood?”

“no. “The first ingredient is mermaid scales.”

“…is this a mermaid?”

Mermaid!

Are you talking about the mermaid whose upper body is human and whose lower body is a fish? It is a fate with infinite possibilities. There are dragons, but it wouldn’t be strange if there were mermaids. But where should I find the mermaid?

“Is there even a mermaid island where mermaids live?”

Sioras shook his head resolutely.

Then he pointed his finger toward the sea once again.

“From past experience, mermaids don’t trust people. That’s why I’m extremely reluctant to show myself to people. So they rarely leave their island deep in the sea.”

“In the sea?”

Mermaid Island in the sea!

Knowing how deep the sea is, the first thing you would do is die from suffocation while trying to find the mermaids’ island. But X had heavenly cooking. Soon, X smiled confidently.

“great. “I will kill the mermaid and bring back the first ingredient, the mermaid’s scale!”

“X, who told you to hit the mermaid?”

“…yes? “Don’t you have to kill a mermaid to get her scales?”

“Oh, there are so many things you don’t know.”

Sioras shook his head. It seems that the goal is not to catch the mermaid.

Sioras explained to X.

“Mermaids are truly mysterious beings. Wise and cautious, they can be said to be the spirits of the sea. You will never get scales by opposing them. “The moment a mermaid stops breathing, she disappears like bubbles.”

Does this mean it’s not a monster that can be defeated?

X felt slightly weak. I thought it was a new monster because it was a mermaid, but I was expecting a new item… Still, I had to cheer up by thinking about the Gourmet King’s recipe. X asked.

“You can’t get a mermaid’s scale by killing it. So how can you get a mermaid’s scale? Besides, didn’t you say that mermaids hate people?”

“To be exact, it’s not that I hate people. Mermaids hate people who harm them. “Is there no reason to be hostile to good people who help them?”

“So what if you become intimate with mermaids?”

Sioras nodded.

“It might not be that difficult to get a fallen scale as a token of friendship, right?”

You must help the mermaids in the sea and build a close relationship with them!

That was the only way to obtain mermaid scales. X reflected on his plan.

‘It’s not that difficult to find mermaids.’

If you receive the Heavenly Cooking effect, you can breathe freely even in the sea. Since the sea is so wide, finding Mermaid Island did not seem to be very difficult even if it took some time.

The problem is gaining the mermaids’ trust.

X opened his mouth.

“Master, even if I suddenly decided to visit the mermaids and offer them help, would they readily trust me? As you said, mermaids basically don’t trust humans…”

“Don’t worry about that. “There was a prophecy.”

“A prophecy?”

“The mermaids will really need your help.”

Sioras looked up at the night sky from the lighthouse window. Countless stars and constellations moved slowly and strangely aligned.

Sioras muttered softly.

“Of course you will change the prophecy.”

*

Arba Royal Palace.

Kaimus, who was in his office, looked at the night sky. I remembered what the palace shaman whispered. It was some kind of prophecy.

‘Great misfortune and great fortune are coming from the southern sea.’

A great misfortune and a great fortune.

Kaimus thought it was a monster attack. Monsters are a great misfortune that brings death to the weak, but for the strong, they are no different from great fortune containing items and experience points.

‘I should have moved later.’

Kaimus dispatched War Machine guild members to Ruyan, the southernmost tip of the continent, faster than anyone else.

Other large guilds, noticing the movement in the sky, also moved their forces to the south. However, Caimus was able to buy time by controlling the border by using his friendship with the kingdom’s high-ranking officials. My acquaintance with the palace shaman was of great help.

‘We have a cause.’

Even if other guilds existed, War Machine had a ally called the Kingdom of Arba.

It was not difficult to prevent interference from third parties if the justification was to protect the kingdom.

‘You can’t flaw us in any way.’

There is a possibility that other guilds that have been deprived of monsters will play press.

That also won’t work for War Machine and Kaimus, which enjoy huge support from users.

“We are the strongest.”

If they could prevent the monster attack and seize the fortune, War Machine could once again solidify its position as the strongest. Kaimus’ eyes sparkled with ambition.

next day.

X was busy fishing since dawn.

“Wow, this is difficult.”

Hold on to the fishing rod and maintain your breathing technique.

I thought it would be easy, but every time I got a bite, my breathing became disturbed. Thanks to that, I missed the bite and wondered if all the breathing techniques I had practiced dozens of times were of any use.

“But it will all be helpful.”

This is the method taught by the great sage, the teacher.

Even if you have doubts, you have no choice but to continue.

Shaking. The bite came again.

“this!”

As expected, my breathing was broken!

This time too, the bite had run away. A heavenly dish for breathing in the sea Seafood that will be the ingredients of that heavenly dish! The first step in training as a great sage was not easy.
