Chapter 384: How to Become Stronger
"V me 50? What does that mean?"
Natsuki Subaru asked in confusion, why did this senior always say things he couldn't understand? They were both from Earth, could it be that they lived in different circles?
"Don't worry about that, Xiaocai. I just asked you if you want to become stronger. You just need to answer whether you want to or not!" Xia Yu said in a low voice.
This choice is like when you are playing on the computer and suddenly a pop-up window pops up saying "Do you want to understand the meaning of life? Do you want to truly live?" and below it is "yes or no".
Now, it's time to make a choice, just don't click that or.
Listening to Xia Yu's serious tone, Caiyue Subaru swallowed his saliva, his pupils trembling, and nodded fiercely: "I want to!"
"Very good, then come and help me set up the pot, we're going to eat Beluga Hotpot today!"
Natsuki Subaru: “???”
…
Standing in front of a large pot, Natsuki Subaru had lifeless eyes as he mechanically stuffed firewood into the bottom of the pot, while hot red oil was boiling inside the pot.
Xia Yu was peeling the remaining beluga whale meat, and then asked the magician to use water magic to clean the meat.
"Haha... I actually believed it... I'm such an idiot..."
Natsuki Subaru muttered to himself as he picked up the firewood with regret and threw it into the fire.
"Subaru, are you okay?"
Just then, a ghost girl with short blue hair came over with a large bundle of firewood. Because she had not consumed all her strength, she stayed.
"Hehe..." Natsuki Subaru laughed dryly twice with lifeless eyes, took the firewood mechanically, and squatted in front of the pot again with regret.
He didn't want to talk and wanted to die.
"Subaru, who bullied Rem? Tell Rem, and Rem will help Subaru get justice!" Looking at Natsuki Subaru's expression, Rem grabbed Natsuki Subaru's hand and placed it on his chest, and said seriously.
"No, nothing, I just feel like an idiot." Natsuki Subaru shook his head. How could he possibly tell others about his embarrassing experience?
"No!" Rem suddenly held Natsuki Subaru's hand tightly and said seriously: "Subaru will always be the smartest in Rem's heart. Please don't belittle yourself. Rem will always support Subaru!"
“Rem…”
Natsuki Subaru's eyes were tearful, and at this moment, a slightly frivolous remark broke the gradually ambiguous atmosphere.
"Hey, Xiaocai, don't you believe in the senior?" Xia Yu walked over with a plate of beluga meat and looked down at Natsuki Subaru.
"senior……"
Natsuki Subaru's face suddenly fell. Seeing Natsuki Subaru like this, Rem's brain moved, and she immediately guessed something. She stood up and stood in front of Natsuki Subaru.
"You're the one who bullied Subaru, right? For Subaru, Rem is going to challenge you!"
“Eh? Rem, don’t…”
Looking at the blue-haired girl in front of him with a determined face, and the panicked Natsuki Subaru behind the girl, Xia Yu shook his head and said angrily.
"Subaru, you don't even cherish such a good girl. Hurry up and marry Rem, otherwise how can you be worthy of Rem's efforts!"
After these words came out, before Natsuki Subaru could react, Rem blushed and looked away.
“Marriage or something… Rem will just be a maid, and Subaru will marry Emilia-sama.”
“Tsk!”
Hearing this, Xia Yu made an unhappy sound, then looked at Natsuki Subaru with contempt as if he were a scumbag.
Being looked at like this, Natsuki Subaru became even more flustered. He stammered and wanted to explain, but didn't know what to say. By the time he had thought of what to say, Xia Yu had already poured the meat slices into the pot and left.
Seeing this, Natsuki Subaru could only sigh deeply and continue to add firewood to the bottom of the pot gloomily.
Not long after, a faint aroma of meat wafted from the pot, and Xia Yu also took out the ingredients and put them into the pot according to different proportions.
This is not just an ordinary big pot of cooking, but a food supplement made by the gourmet Xia Yu. Combined with the zombie Xia Yu's knowledge of monster cooking, it is enough to turn this pot of food into an enhanced dish.
If he wanted to become stronger, the first step was to improve his physical condition. Unfortunately, Natsuki Subaru, this short-sighted guy, didn't understand his good intentions and even looked reluctant.
But it doesn’t matter. He likes these guys who look reluctant at the beginning, because these people will obey the "Jingze Law" in the end and say the words "It smells really good."
As time went by, the aroma became stronger and stronger, attracting the soldiers who were originally chatting nearby. They couldn't help but come over and stare at the meat slices rolling in the pot.
They didn't want to be so embarrassed, but they had no choice but to do so because it smelled so good.
"Gurgle~"
Someone's stomach growled suddenly, and as if starting a chain reaction, the growling sounds continued.
After all, we fought from early morning to early morning. Once we relaxed, fatigue immediately flooded our bodies and we naturally felt hungry.
Although everyone brought dry food, who could eat cold dry food in front of hot broth?
The cold dry food and cold water can only make the cold body even colder.
"When can we eat, meow?"
Just as Xia Yu was stirring the big pot, Felix suddenly jumped out, then lay on Xia Yu's back and asked.
The others were reserved and did not ask, either because of their status as knights or because they were not familiar with Xia Yu, but Felix did not have this concern.
"Right away, right away, don't worry."
While Xia Yu answered, he continued to stir the broth in the pot. Although he didn't have to stir it, stirring would make him look more formal.
When doing things, it is important to have a sense of ritual.
Under the increasingly eager gazes of the others, Xia Yu stirred for more than ten minutes before he stopped.
Then, under the fixed gazes of the others, Xia Yu scooped a bowl for himself and drank it down with gulps.
Well, it tastes very good, worthy of its name. As for the effect of food supplement, I can only say that it tastes very good, and the feedback from the gourmet cells can barely be felt a little bit.
As Xia Yu and others became more and more powerful, their gourmet cells gradually stopped responding. Unless they ate something extremely delicious, their gourmet cells would not pay any attention.
After scooping himself another full bowl, Xia Yu waved his hand and started eating!
“Ohhhh!!!”
After getting Xia Yu's permission, the crowd, who had been impatient for a long time, cheered and jumped for joy, and then began to devour the food.
As for Xia Yu's cooking skills, in the world of Chef Boy it is at the level of a flash bomb, and in the world of Food Wars it is at the level of an ultimate aphrodisiac. In any case, it is incomparably delicious.
“It smells so good!”
Natsuki Subaru also got a full bowl of broth, and after taking the first sip, he couldn't help but sigh.
"How is it? It tastes good, right?" Xia Yu sat down next to Natsuki Subaru and asked with a smile.
"Very... humph!"
Natsuki Subaru was about to answer that it was delicious, but when he thought that Xia Yu was playing a trick on him, he quickly changed his words, snorted coldly and turned his head away.
He is angry and bribing him with delicious food is useless!
"To tell you the truth, this pot of broth is actually a food supplement that can improve your physical fitness. This is the first step to becoming stronger."
Hearing Xia Yu's words, Caiyue Subaru said unhappily: "It's useless, senior. I can't be fooled by you now. I tell you, it's impossible for a person to be fooled twice..."
Before he could finish his words, Natsuki Subaru suddenly covered his mouth. He felt his body getting hotter and hotter, so hot that he wanted to do hundreds of push-ups to relieve the heat.
Wait, why did he think of doing push-ups slowly?
