Chapter 570: Star Path Chef (1/2)

Krune acted like he had transformed that day. Even Oclo wondered if that was the same Krune he knew. During the first fifteen days, Krune's control of Fire Element and Godly Energy was relatively low. The only reason Oclo thought highly of him was his passion for food, which all Spiritual Chefs believed to be the most crucial point. But now, it was like he was in front of an unparalleled Spiritual Chef genius!

'I see, he mastered the Major Law of Fire. However, his improvement is way too drastic. We both can use the Major Law of Fire, but his control over it is several times better than me. Also, how come his Godly Energy control increased so much in a single day? It was definitely related to the fact that he left yesterday.'

Oclo pondered if he should ask what happened, but he decided to not do so. All in all, it was a good thing for Krune that he reached such a level so soon. The most important thing is that his passion as a chef didn't disappear. If anything, Krune seemed to be even more concentrated on his job now.

The other chefs also noticed Krune's change, which left them shocked. Especially the Major Law of Fire. Even them could tell that Krune's control over it was above Oclo himself. In the end, Oclo decided to teach Krune about the Spiritual Chef occupation. Krune, of course, accepted it gladly.

”The key to subduing the ingredients' berserk energies is to harmonize them with your laws. You will then use your laws to bring the energy under your control. It seems pretty much like when you use an elemental attack. During the attack, you will harmonize the Elemental Power, the Laws Power, and the Godly Energy Power as much as possible. It is the same thing for the Spiritual Chef. It's just that instead of using only your Godly Energy, you will also harmonize the energy in the dish.”

Oclo then proceeded to show it in front of Krune. As time passed, Krune couldn't help but feel impressed. Although the theory seemed simple, Krune could tell that it was anything but that. The Heavenly Tastes Restaurant has several chefs, but Oclo is the only Spiritual Chef. More orders for Oclo came in, and more dishes were prepared. Krune then began to help Oclo with whatever he could.

Suddenly, they receive an order for a Star Path Dish, which was quite common. That meant it would need the Spiritual Chef to be able to harmonize the energies of ingredients at the Divine Path Realm level. Oclo then looked at Krune while pointing at the order.

”You go ahead and try. This is a simple Grilled Star Bruk Kraktu. It should be a good place for you to start.”

Krune's eyes lit up! He could finally try his first Spiritual Dish. He skillfully prepared the ingredients and lit up his Godly Fire. Soon, the cooking process started. The cooking part was pretty much the same as what any chef would do. However, a Spiritual Chef couldn't let the Godly Energy escape while transforming it so that the customer could absorb it.

At first, Krune was being quite cranky. Unlike the Mortal Realm, all the meat and plants from the God Path Realm were rich in Godly Energy. Still, Krune adapted to the changes as the cooking progressed. One must not forget the cooking itself either. You had to be finished with the change of the energy by the time the dish was ready. Otherwise, you might overcook it, which is not what the customer desired.

Unfortunately, Krune failed his first attempt. Krune hates to waste food, so seeing the unedible dish in front made him quite sad.

Oclo, on the other hand, was even more shocked by Krune's first attempt. He was able to harmonize over 70% of the Bruk Kraktu Meat in his very first try! However, he could see that Krune didn't seem the least bit happy. Of course, he understood very well why that is. As a Spiritual Chef, he also felt bad every time a dish was wasted. This is a common trait between all Spiritual Chefs. If anything, he was happy to see Krune being gloomy at the loss of food.

”Hahaha! Don't worry, don't worry. Every single Spiritual Chef hates to waste food, but there is no helping it. If you want to prevent the wastage, just make sure to put your heart into the practice. The faster you learn, the less will be the amount of food lost. The order had just come a few minutes ago, so you still have time to try it again.”

Krune shook his head, though.

”Please give me a few minutes. I need to ponder over what happened first. I don't want to try before I'm sure I can show a better result than the last time.”

Oclo nodded.

”Very well. The Grilled Bruk Kraktu has to be delivered in at most thirty minutes. I will wait until 25 minutes have passed. If you don't finish by then, I will make it myself.”

Krune smiled and nodded. He then closed his eyes and reviewed the entire process in his mind. The Fire Laws, his control over his Godly Energy and the one in the meat, and the Fire Element control itself. Krune had spent 10 minutes in his first try, then he used another 7 or so minutes to rethink his approach. Finally, Krune opened his eyes once more.

”Alright, it should be more or less like this.”

Krune quickly prepared another batch of ingredients and began cooking the Bruk Kraktu meat. Oclo looked at it closely and nodded his head as soon as Krune started. Every Spiritual Chef had their own approach. That's because everyone has their own understanding of the Laws, so their cooking also variated. However, he could tell that Krune's start was several times better than the first time.

'I thought he was only passionate and would need massive effort to become a Spiritual Chef. However, it seems like he is a genius between geniuses. His control over the Fire Major Law is really beautiful, I can't compare at all.'

Around seven minutes later, Krune turned off his Godly Fire. Soon, the smell spread around him and Oclo, which made both of them nod satisfied. Oclo quickly called the waiter, who swiftly left to deliver Krune's dish.
