Demon hunter s Cooking Manual

Chapter 691: Chapter 73: The Dream of a Salted Fish Must Be the Saltiest!
 

Dinner is the most delightful of the three meals in a day.

After a tiring day, sitting at the dining table with a weary body is the reward for the day.

It is also the time of day that belongs to oneself the most.

Chopsticks pick up noodles.

Forks and knives play with beef.

Among the sounds of slurping and cutting, there are also the sounds of swallowing soup.

Contentment.

It makes one unconsciously wish for this time to last a bit longer.

That is why supper appears.

It becomes even more delicious.

It is not just about the food itself; it’s also about the representation of having more free time at one’s disposal.

Therefore, even a bowl of instant noodles at that time is incomparably delicious.

Of course, it would be even better with an egg, some ham, and some dried flowers added in.

If the dried flowers are marinated, the flavor would be even better.

Cumin flavor is also recommended, but it requires the noodle soup to be hot enough so that when the dried beans are soaked in it, the cumin blends into the noodle soup, and after the beans become soft and mushy, there is a taste similar to eating meat.

Very comfortable.

But what’s most comfortable is: snacking.

It’s the snack after dinner and supper.

It is not the traditional ‘sending charcoal in snowy weather’; it is more like ‘gilding the lily,’ but only those who truly understand it know the importance of ‘snacking.’

It is both ‘sending charcoal in snowy weather’ and ‘gilding the lily.’

An stomach feeling slightly hungry is satisfied again, which is ‘sending charcoal in snowy weather.’

And the food that was consumed previously, as one reflects on it with a satisfied belch, becomes ‘gilding the lily.’

It allows the two to coexist.

And makes them indistinguishable from each other.

This is an extremely delightful mood.

Jason felt exactly this way at this moment.

He parked the car, took the two boxes of compensation from ‘Memory Lane,’ and walked toward the ‘Bastion’ with a brisk pace, pausing every few steps to cast a [Kaya Seal].

It was not a binding trap, but a vigilant one.

There were enough security facilities around the ‘Bastion.’

John, Brian, and McCaul had set up enough surveillance probes.

But that did not prevent Jason from setting up a few more.

As one of the dwellers of the ‘Bastion,’ he believed this was something he should do.

At this moment, the moon had already passed its highest point in the night sky.

Under the bright moonlight, [Kaya Seal] silently appeared at various locations around the ‘Bastion.’

Although it could only last for 5 hours, that was enough.

“If only I had a few good hunting dogs.”

As he casually cast the [Kaya Seal] and set it up in a secluded spot on the side of the ‘Bastion,’ Jason couldn’t help but think that.

Good hunting dogs, much more reliable than humans.

Especially at night, that reliability even surpasses that of machines.

Entering the ‘Bastion’ on tiptoe, he waved to John, who was on the night shift.

“John,”

Jason greeted.

“All’s normal.”

John, standing in the shadows, replied.

Daisy, who was crouched at John’s feet, shrank her head and tried to hide her body

as much as possible.

Jason smiled and headed towards his basement room.

Not just machines, manual night shifts are necessary as well.

This was a habit for John, Brian, and McCaul.

Every night, the three of them would take turns according to a schedule.

Jason had no objections to this.

If possible, he wouldn’t mind joining in.

But not tonight.

Entering his room, Jason locked the door and cast another [Kaya Seal].

He hung his coat on the rack behind the door and walked straight to the desk.

Although he was living in a small suite, there wasn’t a separate dining room to put down the two servings of ‘food’ he was holding in his hand.

Therefore, the desk in the study became the best choice.

After placing the two servings of ‘food,’ Jason eagerly opened the boxes.

Before this, Jason had checked the boxes more than once, ensuring that there were no issues.

And as the boxes opened, the ‘food’ inside revealed its true appearance.

One was a ring.

The other was a button.

The ring featured a hundred-year-old style peculiar to this world, with a simple silver setting, but the ruby was extremely dazzling, sparkling with flowing light and fiery color under the light.

The button was made of gold, smooth on the front but covered with intricate imprints on the back.

“The Flame Ring can continuously spray high-temperature flames or shoot 10 fireballs in succession. When the gem’s luster fades, you need to replace the gem for recharging.”

“The Force Field Button creates a force field that can withstand three explosions when in danger. It cannot be recharged, and after three uses, it directly breaks down.”

Next to the two servings of ‘food,’ there were detailed explanations about the ‘food’ itself and the Dufol Language needed to activate them.

It was evident that ‘Memory Lane’ had carefully paired them.

An offensive and a defensive item, closely coordinated, were a very nice combination.

However, for Jason, they were just food.

Flame?

Jason’s expert-level [Charles Burning Technique] was enough to do everything.

And defense?

Jason’s repeatedly merged and upgraded Body Forging Technique had already brought his own defense to the level of an armored vehicle. Although there were still weak points that could not be immune to fatal damage, it was much stronger than the [Force Field Button].

So, what Jason was more interested in now was…

The taste!

He first picked up the [Flame Ring].

The ruby was smooth, with a rich sweet taste, somewhat like red velvet cake, while the setting was crispy and delicious, filled with the unique aroma of cashews.

The taste of the [Force Field Button] was much simpler.
