Chapter 4: Just my Luck

"...How did it come to this?..." (Lucas)

Currently, I'm roasting 10 barbeque at the same time with the meat from [Mornhound] I encountered during the battle before.

After hearing Euomun's story, I was thinking of a plan to get out of this cave when my stomach growled.

Thinking of this as an opportunity, I used up 20 [Skill Points] on [Cooking].

Since I'm a complete beginner in [Cooking] both in skill proficiency and in real life, I decided to make a simple barbeque with the [Mornhound's Meat] and tried sticking herbs for fun. After tasting it, I noticed that it actually tasted more delicious than without the herbs.

Not only that, but as an effect, my max HP increased by 2% and STR increased by 1%. It's small but I don't care as long as it tastes delicious. Besides, my skill proficiency is still Beginner.

But when I looked at Euomun, I can see her drooling while looking at the barbeque I'm eating.

"...Do you want some?" (Lucas)

"R-really? Is it fine? It's fine if it's poisoned, at least I get to eat a tasty looking food before dying." (Euomun)

"I already said I won't kill you!"(Lucas)

After that, she wasn't satisfied with just one and asked for more which brought to this situation where I'm roasting 10 at the same time.

Well, it's fine since I get to increase my skill proficiency but I bet I could get more profit by selling it...the ingredients are rare too, I don't know whether [Harus] has the same type of monster here.

"Mmmnm! What amazing food! I never tasted something like this in my lifetime! What is this food called?"(Euomun)

"Barbeque, never heard of it?" (Lucas)

"Well, I've been here for around 300 years now so I don't know."(Euomun)

"300..."(Lucas)

That's right, Euomun here was indeed the Demon Queen, however, unlike her previous ancestors, she's not fond of war and had wanted peace for a long time now.

The Demon General Slazore however, does not share the same interest and slipped a sleeping pill on her drink.

Normally, Euomun should've noticed this action, but Slazore knew her all too well and knew when the right time to place it and when Euomun's guard drops the most.

That's when she's bored.

She has the habit of doing whatever's near her when she's bored. When there's flowers on her side, she picks and starts fiddling with it, when there's paperwork on her side, he dives herself in work, when there's the bed beside her, she sleeps, when there's food or drink beside her, she eats without hesitation.

What an idiotic Queen she is...nevertheless, she's powerful.

When I asked why there are no monsters here, she said that she had killed all of them in her boredom, when I asked whether they respawn, she said that she knows the when and where they respawn and would go to the respawn point and immediately kill them.

She really has too much free time...

Even though she's this powerful, because of the collar she had on her neck, she is unable to bring harm to any of the guards or Slazore when she sees them.

I asked whether she could try to hurt them indirectly but she said she had already tried numerous ways in her boredom.

Not only that, but the collar she had has been enchanted with 100% physical and magic resistance. I really want to know how they achieved such a thing.
