Chapter 12 - Pride of the food god (1/2)
Its been 5 months since our Mc Oscar became a disciple of Lou Gao, and now within the iron compartment there was a loud banging coming from the left wing where Lou Gao and his disciples refine metals for their inventions. However, the person that was in there instead is none other than our Mc, at this moment he had finally created a technique that could refine metal within 10 strokes.
This technique is even better than what the clear sky sect uses, as not only does it refine the metal to 100% but it also makes stronger than before. Imagine if Oscar were to use this technique on an ordinary silver metal not only would the metal become high quality, but it could even rival metals like titanium. Thus, he named it the 10 strokes of pure refinement.
As Oscar finally finished refining those metal pieces, the two long brothers came into the room at the same time. Over the past few months Oscar got to know these two and became friends with them, in fact they shamelessly started calling him big brother. Knowing that they were two years older than Oscar, but that didn't bother Oscar as he really did see these two as his younger brothers.
Long Tian: Hey big brother O its noon and we're hungry
Oscar: Then go get something to eat
I said as I was tired from refining the stack of metals in front of me
Long Yun: But that's the thing we can't
Oscar: Huh?
Long Tian: Big brother nothing in the city is as good as your cooking, please have mercy on us.
They then started begging on their knees and practically kissing his foot.
Oscar: FINE, get off me first
Long Tian/Yun: Alright, thank you big brother, may the heavens bless you with many wives.
(A.N: Yeah not happening, and never going to)
Oscar: ~Sigh~, why did I even cook now look where it's gotten me
Lou Gao: Hahaha, you brats how are you so shameless to ask Little O for this, can't you see that he is tired.
Long Tian/Yun: But old man you were the one that practically begged us to ask him.
Oscar: So old man Lou you were also hungry, huh?
Lou Gao: Yes, I am and as your master you should prepare some food for me, pretty please.
He then tried to make a cute pose while showing a pouting face, oh my god that is just disgusting and disturbing I almost puked my breakfast. I also saw the two brothers grabbing the walls and trying to hold back their breakfast as well. I mean this is fatal blow that could disgust even titled Douluos I then got up and quickly left the fortress without even bringing any money with me and only realized, as I was almost at the market. ~Sigh~ this is exhausting, and I really don't want to go back, huh what's going on over there.
Meanwhile back at the fortress…
As the two brothers finally got over the nausea of seeing their master perform that disgusting pose of his. They realized that they forgot to give Oscar any money to buy the groceries, as they were about to leave they heard a metal piece drop onto the floor and saw their master with a look of shock on his face. He then started laughing while holding his face with his left hand, this scared the brothers and made them moved further away from their master.
Long Tian: Hey Yun you think the old man has finally lost it.
Long Yun: I don't know but this is freaking me out
Lou Gao then turned to look at the two brothers with an infuriated face and caught them both while also pounding their heads with his small hammer.
Lou Gao: You brats are the ones that lost it, when you don't even know why I am in shock
Lou Gao: Because of this
He then showed them one of the metal piece that Oscar had just refined like it was some treasure.
Long Tian: What's so special about it
Lou Gao then hit them in the head again while shouting at them.
Lou Gao: Look at it closely
Long Tian and Long Yun tried but they couldn't even find anything special about it no matter how hard they tried. They then quickly held their heads as to block the hammer from hitting them again.
Lou Gao: You brats are a disappointment
Long Tian/Yun: Okay then tell us what is so special about the metal he refined
Lou Gao: He refined these metal pieces to a 100% high quality and made it even better than the highest quality metal in the city.
Meanwhile back at the market…
It turns out that the market was having a cooking competition and the prize was 10,000 gold coins. To others who were just bystanders this was tough, and none would want to compete in it, however to Oscar the one who is destined to become the food god of this world this is easy. He then saw the announcer who turned out to be Chief chef from the most well-known restaurant in Gengxin city ”The Golden metal restaurant”.
Chef Yin: Step right up we are having a cooking competition to see if there are any who have the potential of becoming a chef. The prize is 10,000 gold coins and even if you lose you can get a chance of becoming a member for our restaurant.
I then thought that was fair enough and was about to step up and challenge them, I then heard one of bystanders gossiping about this competition.
Bystander 1: This is a lie
Oscar: What do you mean
Bystander 1: Oh, hey there kid what I mean is, they don't want any new members of their restaurant all they want is someone to become their servant. Meaning if you win you get the 10,000 gold coins , but if you lose it will be a debt that you have to pay off. They did this last year and some unlucky fool thought he was making some easy money, however when he lost he was overworked day and night until he finally paid off that 10,000 gold coin.
Oscar: Oh
Bystander 1: That is why no one is going up even if that 10,000-gold coin is really enticing, do you understand now kid.
Meanwhile on the stage…
