I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me?

After all, I was carrying out the strategy together with Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno and the Captains, so everything was moving at a fairly moderate pace.

If I had been playing the way I normally did in the game, everyone would have started by taking off their clothes.

Seeing the twins’ horrified expressions, I couldn’t help but feel a little confused.

‘I don’t think it’s that bad.’

Besides, thanks to unlocking the daytime dungeon, the choice of dish was perfect.

Right now, we were just going up and down the dungeon a bit. aspect That was the most basic part of any strategy.

I would have sold the shirt and overalls, the starting equipment, to get money.

The Flame Lizard Tail Skewer, prepared by skewering a Flame Lizard tail on a wooden stick and grilling it with Lava Salt and Volcanic Ash Spice, was one of the most efficient dishes in all of Slay to Plate.

‘This will save us a lot of work.’

Each hunt in the daytime dungeon yielded four tails, along with one unit of Lava Salt and one unit of Volcanic Ash Spice.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Each unit of Lava Salt and Volcanic Ash Spice was enough for four uses.

And that wasn’t its only advantage.

The quantities matched perfectly, as though they had been calculated in advance, so there were never any leftover ingredients.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

The tips were also very generous, so the expected selling price ranged from 480G to 700G.

On top of that, the price was excellent.

If you added Lava Salt and Volcanic Ash Spice, the base price reached an incredible 480G.

The recipe was very simple, since all you had to do was skewer the tail and grill it, and the preparation time was much shorter than that of other dishes in the same category.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I intended to turn the restaurant into a full-fledged factory for that dish and make a fortune.

There wasn’t a single other dish in Slay to Plate that was more efficient than grilled lizard tails when considering both time and cost.

If I only cooked the same dish over and over again, the restaurant’s reputation would drop, but I could recover that later.

When it came to making money, nothing was better.

“How insolent! palette You’re not afraid of the Fire Dragons!”

“I’m terribly sorry, Lady Ella. matrix But… last time you said my grass tea tasted like garbage… So I wanted to practice with this.”

Ella flew into a rage, so I immediately put on a pitiful expression.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I just wanted to prepare a delicious dish for Lady Ella and Sir Ellun…”

The moment I mentioned her comment about the grass tea, Ella’s shoulders trembled.

I lowered my gaze dejectedly and murmured,

As he waved the tails around, Ella let out a small huff and exclaimed,

At that moment, Kwak Hanmuk came running over with a pair of lizard tails in his hands.

“My little Green Chestnut! acquire He spent the entire night researching how to grill these tails so he could serve you the best possible dish! amber He even got dark circles under his eyes!”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I think it’ll taste better than the tea.”

“F-Fine. shadow Leave them beside me. abandon I’ll overlook it this time.”

Ellun crouched down on the ground, picked up one of the tails that was slowly beginning to cook, and sniffed it.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I ran back to the forty-fourth floor and repeated the entire process.

“Right? antenna I’ll prepare something delicious for you. alpha Well then, if you’ll excuse me.”

1:30 p.m.

We had wasted too much time leaving the pre-grilling to the twins.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Until the sun sets.”

Looking exhausted, the twins asked,

“How much longer are you going to keep doing this…?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

After so many trips back and forth, even the monsters were beginning to look tired.

Especially the Hidden Boss.

That night I would cook all those tails so I could start the business the following day.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Unlike the normal monsters and the Bosses, who respawned from scratch, he simply fled and then returned.

The Flame Mage was about to surrender when Je Hyuno charged at him again.

“Hey… mortals… couldn’t you stop already…? zenith Aaaagh!”

He already looked completely fed up with Je Hyuno and me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

There were still more than three hours left before quitting time, and he was already complaining.

The daytime dungeon ended at five in the afternoon.

No way.

‘I’m not done with my workday either.’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

We were still farming items without stopping.

Finally, the Flame Mage snapped.

4:30 p.m.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was the moment I had been waiting for.

“Enough! august ENOUGH! absorb Keep those damned spices! advance I’ll give you all of them!”

I immediately stepped forward.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

He slowly turned his head toward me.

Just before tearing him apart again with his metal hand, Je Hyuno stopped.

“Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno, wait a moment!”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I promised him that tomorrow he would be able to hunt even more monsters, doing everything I could to persuade him.

Naturally, his goggles and gas mask concealed his expression, but it was obvious he wasn’t pleased at all.

I walked over to him and whispered,

“The daytime dungeon is about to end anyway. atomic It’ll be more beneficial for us to negotiate now and obtain a larger quantity of spices.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Je Hyuno displayed one of those strange emoticons again and lowered his hand.

ㅇ ㅠ

Then he lightly clinked his metal hand together, clearly disappointed that he hadn’t been able to cut anything, and pointed toward a certain spot.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

He even projected arrows onto his goggles to indicate the direction.

I made one final request.

He was pointing toward the stairs leading to the next floor.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Je Hyuno immediately displayed an emoticon and went up to the next floor.

“Then please go ahead to the forty-fifth floor by yourself and come back afterward. apple I have to transport the items.”

*^ ^*

“Mortal. ability Is the reason you’ve been tormenting me so relentlessly because of those spices? antique I’ll give them to you for free.”

There wasn’t a trace left of the imposing presence he had displayed when he first appeared. adopt Now he looked like an office worker completely worn down by life.

After working so hard to create an opportunity to negotiate, I approached the Flame Mage.

I nodded at his declaration of surrender and was about to tell him how many I wanted.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…!”

“Mr. absorb Gunbam. antique Don’t forget that I also have an inventory.”

Then Dominic spoke from my shoulder.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I took a moment to keep the happiness from showing on my face.

“Then just give me ninety.”

Then, pretending to be completely calm, I said to the Flame Mage,

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Flames began to blaze from the Flame Mage’s eye sockets.

It was exactly the combined maximum capacity of Je Hyuno’s, Dominic’s, and my inventories.

I requested that amount as though I were already doing him a favor.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

The moment I made a move to turn around, the Flame Mage immediately changed his attitude.

“You damned swindler!”

“Then I suppose the negotiation has failed. arena I’ll have to call back the person who just went upstairs…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Do you have any idea how valuable this is?! action Gathering magical ash and bottling it requires an incredibly complex process…”

“Thank you very much. admire Then please hand them over as soon as possible.”

“But! arrow These days, one has to know how to look after one’s own interests. autumn I meant it as a compliment.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Flame Mage launched into a lengthy explanation of how extraordinary the Volcanic Ash Spice was.

Even so, seeing how miserable he looked, I ended up feeling a little sorry for him and made him another offer.

It wasn’t something an adventurer who had invaded the dungeon needed to know.

But that was the monster’s job.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I also had to run the restaurant, so I planned to split us up—two people would manage the business while the other two entered the dungeon solely to farm and transport ingredients.

We also had to move the lizard tails and the Lava Salt, as well as account for the travel time to and from the restaurant, so ninety-nine seemed like the right amount.

“Then, starting tomorrow, ninety-nine a day will be enough.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Can he control that?’

Even the black flames flickering along the hem of his robe seemed to lose some of their intensity.

When I mentioned ninety-nine, the flames in the Flame Mage’s eye sockets dimmed slightly.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

It would be wonderful if it could be obtained as an item.

For a moment, I wondered if it might be possible to cook using that robe.

“If you could lower the amount a little…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Flame Mage slumped over, unable to reply.

I decided to offer him a carrot after the stick.

“…”

“I already lowered it quite a bit. atomic Including what you just gave me, I received a total of two hundred and thirty-five Volcanic Ash Spice today. riddle It isn’t even half.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Some Hidden Bosses who were interested in humans could be given food as gifts.

After all, it was made using ingredients from the Fire Dragon Dungeon, so it perfectly suited their tastes.

“In return, if you cooperate, I’ll bring you a different dish every day.”

If they received a dish of high enough quality with a fire affinity, they were absolutely delighted.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

He cleared his throat a couple of times and shook out his robe.

“Really? adopt A dish prepared with ingredients from the dungeon? antique I’m curious to see what it will be like.”

Just as I expected, the Flame Mage showed interest the moment he heard the word food.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Heh… I’ve guarded the forty-fourth floor of the dungeon for a very long time and have met countless mortals, but you’re the first one who’s ever offered to cook for me.”

I wondered how that mechanism worked.

The flames along its hem, which had weakened before, flared brightly once more.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“They call me Lamb. alpha Ah, by the way. amateur Starting tomorrow, the man dressed entirely in black will be coming in my place.”

“What is your name?”

The Flame Mage stepped a little closer.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

The Flame Mage looked utterly disillusioned.

Well, he was a skeleton, so I couldn’t say for certain, but that was certainly the impression he gave.

“…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Don’t forget my dish!”

In the end, he agreed to hand over ninety-nine Volcanic Ash Spice every day.

After concluding the negotiation, the Flame Mage disappeared.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Lieutenant Colonel Je Hyuno.”

However, Je Hyuno was nowhere to be seen.

I began carefully collecting the spices while calling for Je Hyuno.

I wanted to store some of them in his inventory as well.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Did he keep going up without stopping on the forty-fifth floor?’

It wasn’t a bad thing for him to keep clearing the upper floors.

He still hadn’t come back down.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Furthermore, valuable items could only be stored one per inventory slot.

‘I gave the Captains the inventory expansion bags because of the lizard tails.’

Unlike outside the dungeon, any items that weren’t inside an inventory disappeared when changing floors.

The problem was that I no longer had anywhere to store the Volcanic Ash Spice.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

But I didn’t dare leave Dominic alone to go looking for him, either.

Right now, we each had thirty-three inventory slots, but I had already occupied nine of mine with valuable items.

If I didn’t use Je Hyuno’s inventory, I’d end up losing part of the loot.

That only left me with twenty-four.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I even tried sending Je Hyuno a message, but got no response.

It would only take me looking away for a moment for him to possibly destroy the entire dungeon.

‘Who knows what he might do if I leave him by himself.’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Mr. aluminum Gunbam.”

While I was still worrying about the spices…

“Yes…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I quickly caught him in my hand.

Dominic slowly climbed down from my head onto my shoulder, then along my arm.

I replied halfheartedly.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Mages didn’t have any spells that expanded inventories.

“But…”

“Allow me to use a little magic.”

Although I always preferred playing as a Chef, I had also tried every other class.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dominic’s body began to glow.

Mages never learned anything like that.

“Then I’ll create one.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Mr. atom Dominic…!”

“I’ve increased the number of items each inventory slot can hold. academy It was simpler than I expected.”

I was deeply moved.

A tiny blue magic circle, no larger than a pudding slime, appeared beneath the Volcanic Ash Spice and swallowed them completely.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had to keep encouraging him to use only peaceful magic.

It was magic as peaceful as Je Hyuno’s new hobby of trimming ornamental trees.

“A spell like this is wonderful. alert I’ll continue relying on you in the future.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I’m glad you like it, Mr. action Gunbam.”

At my praise, Dominic gently swayed his ears.

“As always, only you could do something like this, Mr. advance Dominic. aluminum You’re the finest companion I could ever rely on.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

“…?”

I thought he’d be several floors higher.

With the world’s greatest pudding slime perched on my head, I went upstairs to look for Je Hyuno.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Je Hyuno stood perfectly still.

Before I could even wonder why he was still there, I realized something was wrong.

But, surprisingly, I found him as soon as I reached the forty-fifth floor.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

His metal hand hung motionless at his side.

He wasn’t doing anything at all.

He wasn’t attacking.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

It had the head of a goat.

Its horns were transparent like crystal, with black smoke swirling inside them.

He was simply standing there.

Floating before him was a monster dressed in a tailcoat made of black flames.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 70 published by TrungTu Reads.

Amid that distorted chorus, the goat’s crimson eyes fixed upon me.

In the other, a staff covered in thorny vines.

In one hand it carried a netted sack full of skulls.

The skulls clattered against one another as they sang a chilling requiem.

‘Why is the Hidden Boss from the eighty-eighth floor on the forty-fifth…?’

You have been afflicted with the Hallucination status effect.
Duration: 60 seconds.
You remember the happiest moment of your life.

The instant that thought crossed my mind, a system window appeared.
