Chapter 707

Episode 707

“Priest.”

Falkrius was embarrassed when Perse pointed out that he realized that blood was dripping from his ladle.

“this! These are all treasures! thank you. Perse.”

“It’s no big deal. “Priest.”

“Puh-huh, you can call me comfortably.”

Falkrius left the ladle back inside and came out.

“We at decided to first explain the club to you instead of treating you to a meal. “Does anyone know why our club is named like this?”

The second-year students at Blue Dragon Tower looked at each other.

Some people knew about the legend of Saint Iactus, who defeated an evil demon dragon with a single stone, but they had no idea what that had to do with the soup.

“Is this like the soup that Saint Iactus liked to eat?”

“Woohaha! That’s an interesting idea. Similar but no. Everyone knows the miracle of Saint Iactus defeating the devil dragon, but they don’t know much about other miracles.”

The pot-bellied priest patted his stomach and continued his explanation.

“This is a story about one day when Saint Iactus visited a village. The village was divided into west and east. The west had a good harvest, but the east had a poor harvest and was starving. So Saint Iactus asked us to share food with the rich people in the west.”

“I don’t think they distributed it.”

“that’s right! Then Saint Iactus came up with a plan. I’m going to make a delicious soup with just rocks and water. Rich people from the west came to see it. Saint Iactus muttered this while boiling the soup. ‘The soup would be even tastier if I had just the Minotaur’s shoulder meat.’”

“?”

Lee Han, who had been nodding his head while listening to the typical fable, paused.

Excessively high-quality food ingredients were used.

“Aren’t they just regular carrots, onions and potatoes?”

“Puh, it’s an old story, right? Maybe they had recently caught a Minotaur and had plenty of meat. Anyway, as Saint Iactus muttered that, someone brought the Minotaur’s shoulder meat. Then Saint Iactus muttered again! ‘The soup would be even tastier if there was rock salt from the fairy cave.’”

“……”

“……”

The Blue Dragon Tower students, who were impressed at first, also felt something strange and tilted their heads.

Aren’t the ingredients too high-end?

Guyando was amazed by himself.

“I often use that muttering strategy too! Until you give me the wizard card…”

“Really? Hahaha. You too may become a hero like Saint Iactus. The villagers brought ingredients whenever Saint Iactus muttered, and in the end, a soup delicious enough to fill the entire village was created! “The name of our club honors this miracle.”

Asan asked as if he didn’t understand.

“Is this really what happened?”

Several other students also expressed doubts about whether they had similar thoughts.

“It’s one village, but it’s possible for one side to have a good harvest and one side to have a bad harvest…”

“I think the ingredients are too high-quality.”

Falkrius paid no heed to the questions of his juniors.

“Woah haha. Since this is an old story, it may have changed a little. But you are acting like a principal now! “Every time the principal hears this story, he tries to explain why he’s so displeased with it!”

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Originally, they say that Saint Iactus threatened the villagers with stones and ripped off their food ingredients. Phew. “That’s nonsense!”

“……”

For some reason, Lee Han thought that the skeleton principal might have been hit this time.

Falkrius chuckled and continued his explanation.

“Actually, what you guys are curious about is something else, right? Rather than the origin of the club’s name… what does the club do and what privileges do it have?”

“yes!”

When Gainando answered honestly, Falkrius burst into laughter.

“Hahaha yes! Our club collects ingredients from Einrogard. Grow and harvest. Herding and slaughter. You can think of it as scraping together everything that can be used as food ingredients. Because of our long history, there are many fields and ranches owned by our club. Thanks to this, our club members never go hungry.”

“!”

Even students who were not particularly interested in what their senior said changed their expressions.

No matter how well Lee Han prepared meals, Einrogard always got hungry quickly and was constantly hungry.

If you join the kitchen club, you will be able to eat much more abundantly than now.

Lee Han was surprised and whispered to his friend next to him.

“Amazing? Since the club has a long history, something like that seems possible. “Everyone is trying to get in.”

“…Why are you talking to me, Wodanaz?”

Aden Arth looked at Lee Han with a slight look of confusion on his expressionless face.

“ah. sorry. “I just said it because you were next to me.”

“……”

Aden Arth looked at Lee Han with slightly suspicious eyes.

I’ve always suspected that Wardanaz thought of him as a glutton similar to his half-brother, but these days, I’m becoming more and more convinced.

“Me! “I’m going in!”

Gainando suddenly raised his hand and shouted. Several other students also raised their hands for fear of losing to Guy Nando.

“no! I am…!”

“I’m in the top 10 in alchemy!”

“I even helped Wardanaz cook!”

“Puhuhuh. Thank you everyone for your support! But not just anyone can join our club!”

Guynando quickly swung his staff and attacked his friends.

The friends who got up seemed to have expected it, too, and swung their canes to fight back.

“I’m going in!”

“You bastard, you are the one who gets the most from Wodanaz, give it up!”

Falkrius swung the kitchen knife he was holding.

Then the students who were throwing magic at each other fell forward.

“How barbaric! “This is Einro Guard, but that doesn’t mean you can join a club like Einro Guard!”

thud!

Falkrius put down the huge cauldron. Water was lapping inside.

“Hold on to the handle next to the pot!”

“Like this?”

“okay.”

Gainando tilted his head and held onto the side of the pot.

However, the water inside was still without any change.

Falkrius, who had been laughing just a moment ago, changed his expression completely and gave a look full of contempt.

“It’s trash!”

“yes? Hey, senior Seon. Why are you doing this? “What did I do wrong?”

“go away! Don’t even talk to me. “My ears are getting dirty!”

Falkrius chanted a spell and pushed Gainando away.

“next! “Hold on!”

“I got caught.”

When the next student caught it, a very small bubble rose from the water in the pot and disappeared.

Falkrius gave an equally disdainful look.

“It looks like you’ve never cooked for someone in your life. trash! go away!”

“……”

“……”

The warm atmosphere immediately became cold. No one who volunteered first was successful and was kicked out.

The kitchen club students behind nodded with happy faces.

“As expected, it’s senior Falkrius.”

“You have no mercy on those who are not qualified.”

The joining process for Iactus Soup Club was simple.

If you could capture Iactus’ cauldron and make the water inside boil, it was a success.

Of course, making the water boil was not easy.

Once inside that cauldron, no magic or external means will work.

Only the wizard’s own actions could make the water boil.

Do you have any experience cooking for others?

Wizards who lived a carefree life without getting their hands dirty could never pass this test.

“Eliminated, eliminated, eliminated, eliminated… Oh. “Is it pretty?”

When it was Yoner’s turn, Falkrius stopped showing contempt and gave him a favorable look.

The water in the pot was bubbling moderately.

As someone from Blue Dragon Tower, it wasn’t easy to show results like this.

“Are you interested in our club?”

“Can I find out more about other clubs and make a decision?”

“Puh-huh, of course. “Do as much research as you can and decide!”

Priest Falkrius was a very generous person to qualified juniors.

When Yoner said he would look into other clubs and make a decision, he readily accepted.

Lee Han was slightly relieved to see that.

‘You’re a person with common sense like Direth.’

Although they had the authority to invite, they didn’t seem to wield it arbitrarily.

“Eliminated, eliminated! leaving out!! leaving out!!! “You lazy pigs!”

Falkrius eliminated another batch of students.

Then came Lee Han’s turn.

“Hold on!”

“yes.”

As the water in the pot began to bubble, Falkrius looked at Lee Han as if he was satisfied.

At that moment, the water turned into steam and shot up into the pot.

Puhwaak!

“……”

“……”

Falkrius and Lee Han, as well as the kitchen club students behind them, just blinked and watched.

Now…

what the hell happened now?

“…pass! I passed! I can’t believe I’ll meet a junior like you in my life. “This is the miracle of Saint Iactus!”

Falkrius grabbed Lee Han’s shoulders tightly, rocked him back and forth, and shouted loudly.

Lee Han said, shaking back and forth.

“Senior. “I also want to find out about the clubs I have reached and make a decision.”

“huh?”

When the shaking stopped, Lee Han was able to speak normally.

“I also go to another club…”

“What do you mean? no. “You just sign up.”

Lee Han thought to himself as he watched Falkrius shouting for him to bring the bell right away.

‘hmm. ‘I guess I was wrong.’

He was just a crazy person.

* * *

As Falkrius and the Kitchen Club students returned, rejoicing at the fact that they had rescued a treasured junior, the remaining seniors from the other clubs cleared their throats.

“I saw something rare. “It’s rare for Priest Falkrius to like something like that.”

“Honestly, I didn’t expect anyone from Blue Dragon Tower to join the Kitchen Club this year.”

Perse also nodded.

Even thinking about it again, I couldn’t believe I could pass the test like that.

How many times have you cooked?

“It will be good for the kitchen club and for those juniors.”

“You can’t just sign up like that! “You’ll regret not stopping me!”

Gainando grumbled.

The seniors clicked their tongues at that sight.

“You’re jealous because you can’t get in.”

“You call that guy your friend.”

“ruler. “Then I will explain the Gyeokgu club.”

When the kitchen club’s turn was over, Perse spoke up.

The clubs gathered here today planned to give explanations in their respective turns.

“Before I explain, is there anyone who went to the desert in the first semester last year after driving a horse to overcome monsters? “It must have happened during Professor Lightning Step’s exam.”

The second grade students all looked at Lee Han.

Lee Han, who had been pondering whether he could somehow get rid of the kitchen club membership application, later realized something strange and looked up.

“What’s going on?”

“Senior is looking for you. “Lee Han.”

“Senior Falkrius?”

“no. “Senior Perse over there.”

“!”

When it seemed that Lee Han would be selected for the Gyeokgu Club following the Kitchen Club, the other club seniors felt an instinctive sense of anxiety.

A senior member of the library club opened his mouth without taking his turn.

“for a moment. Let me ask you just one question. “Is there a junior who caught Rock Drake at the library last year?”

“We all caught it together.”

Contrary to what Lee Han said, all his friends looked at him. The senior ignored Lee Han’s words and got the answer through the students’ actions.

“Then, is the junior who built a fort in the library last year also here?”

“That too…”

“I see. Tell Falkrius to come out.”

A senior from the library club took out his cane, hid it behind his back, and shouted.

Seeing that, other club seniors also quietly took out their canes.

How dare you arbitrarily steal a member of someone else’s club?
