Chapter 682
The super rare food material can be sold for a hefty sum, enough to buy a piece of top-of-the-line equipment .
An average player would be having a field day selling it to cash in on this great item .
For Wu Yan, however, this additional sum of money lacked any convincing power simply because he’s already so d.a.m.n rich . Moreover, there are hardly any players with a high enough cooking skill level to process this piece of meat . Messing around would mean wasting a perfectly fine food material . Selling what could be potential charcoal for a hefty sum of money is probably way better .
Among the known top chefs, there are no players capable enough to process this material . Average players would be hard-pressed to taste this meat with their own palate .
For someone who already maxed out his cooking skill, this isn’t an issue for Wu Yan .
Wu Yan wanted to head home as soon as possible to cook this rabbit but Asuna busted him before he could do that . Then, Asuna convinced him into waiting until dinner to cook this rabbit .
There is a silver lining to all of this . He gets to go on a trip to the market to buy materials for dishes that can further enhance the dining experience .
Wu Yan went on a trip to the 50th floor to buy materials for his upcoming dinner . This included herbs, potions, flavorings, and the likes . By the time he was done, the sky is already slowly darkening .
He stored away the Ragout rabbit meat after killing the monster . He lifted his head and he saw the dark skies above .
“Asuna should be returning soon…”
Wu Yan scolded himself with a bitter smile on his face .
“If I knew I would be running into Asuna, I would have killed the Ragout Rabbit first . Why was I so stupid? Why did I keep the rabbit around because I wanted to look at it more?”
Asuna isn’t a pure bottomless pit . She likes eating but she didn’t have the inhuman ability to eat mountains of food . But, with an S-grade dish on the table, she probably wouldn’t quit until she got at least half of it .
Wu Yan surrendered to his fate and he turned towards the teleport platform .
“I should go home too…”
Aincrad, 22nd floor…
He enjoyed the scenery as he walked along the wooden path that led to his quaint home . His surprise is immediately evident when he saw Asuna stomping her feet in impatience in front of his house . With arms behind her back, she continued staring at the door of his house .
“Asuna?”
Wu Yan approached at a faster pace .
Asuna turned around when she heard his voice . She crossed her arms and she dumped all her annoyance on him .
“You’re so slow! Why are you late for your own dinner?”
“Well, I had to procure the right ingredient you see…”
Wu Yan opened the door and Asuna entered like it was her home .
“Ingredients? I thought you had a ton of those?”
“Sure, but none of the ingredients available to me were suitable so I had to get more . ”
Wu Yan flicked open the light in the living room .
“Oh, can’t forget the freeloader that comes knocking every few days . Jeez, I wonder if that has something to do with my steadily decreasing food surplus…”
“I thought I already gave you the menu though?”
“Look, I am going to need materials to make those dishes . ”
Asuna smiled at him .
“It’s not like you’re lacking in money and materials…”
Wu Yan chuckled and he sighed .
“Sounds to me like you’re making my home your personal kitchen and diner…”
“You are implying I do this on a regular basis!”
Asuna grumbled . Wu Yan wasn’t going to let her get away with this .
“I am not implying, I am saying you do that on a regular basis!”
Asuna turned this on him .
“Look, you’re the one who started this, who told you to be better at cooking than me?!”
“Har?!”
Wu Yan was speechless .
“What kind of logic is that?”
“A solid logic!”
Asuna turned her head the other way .
“Since you’re better at cooking than me, it makes sense to choose food cooked by you!”
