Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent
Chapter 12: Fire Realm Restaurant ’Black Butcher’Luo Feng looked at the wine jar and roasted meat in Morosa’s hand and couldn’t help but laugh, “You’ve been living quite comfortably lately. On our way back, you couldn’t bear to put down the wine and meat in your hand.”
“Comfortably?” Morosa took a big bite of meat, shaking his head repeatedly, “Not at all comfortable. Master, you told me not to cause trouble! For more than one era, I didn’t dare provoke any trouble! It was suffocating. I had to endure and endure!”
“Really suffocating?” Luo Feng pressed on.
Morosa nodded repeatedly, “Huyang City is a mix of powers, and some crazy fighters intentionally pick fights! With my temper, I would have crushed them with one hand long ago. But your order surpasses everything! Even if I were to die, I wouldn’t disobey! So, I had to endure, making big issues small and small issues disappear.”
Luo Feng was curious, “You made big issues small and small issues disappear?”
Born from the Great Way of Destruction, the Boundary Beast had a violent nature. Luo Feng was very curious about how he managed to endure.
“I just slightly injured them, making them feel the difference in strength! Then made them pay a small fine, that’s all.” Morosa quickly explained, “This isn’t causing trouble. If you get beaten and don’t fight back, you’ll only be bullied even more.”
Luo Feng nodded, “I understand. A coward would be eaten alive in Huyang City.”
“Master is wise.” Morosa smiled and couldn’t help but take a few more sips of wine.
“You didn’t like drinking back home.” Luo Feng was curious.Morosa’s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, “Master, since you came to Origin Continent, you haven’t properly tasted the local wines, right? Some wines here taste much better than back home.”
“Let me try.” Luo Feng took the wine jar and took a sip.
As the wine entered his stomach, he immediately felt his soul and consciousness nourished, feeling comfortable and relaxed.
“Interesting.” Luo Feng was surprised, “Since coming to Origin Continent, I’ve only had a sip of Pure Brew Wine at Yan Feng Pavilion, which had a subtle flavor. But this wine is bold, even affecting my soul consciousness.”
Luo Feng’s soul consciousness was incredibly strong, yet he still felt comfortable and relaxed.
If a Void True God drank this wine, they’d probably feel euphoric.
Morosa nodded and said, “Creatures born on Origin Continent can absorb the power of heaven and earth, so they don’t need to eat or drink. Therefore, their food and wine have special effects, not just to supplement energy.”
“Some provide intense olfactory stimulation, others benefit the divine body and soul consciousness, making the True Gods crave them,” Morosa explained.
Luo Feng nodded. He knew that ordinary food and drinks on Origin Continent were worthless. Only special food and drinks sold for high prices, often having effects like refining the divine body and nourishing the soul.
“This jar of wine cost three chaos crystals! I have to drink it sparingly,” Morosa said, putting it away carefully.
“Is the food and wine really that attractive? Let’s go, Morosa, show me around,” Luo Feng said.
Morosa’s eyes lit up, and he took a big bite of the huge roasted meat before saying, “Don’t worry, Master. In this era, there are few food and wine places in Huyang City that I don’t know. Let me lead the way.”
“But…” Morosa grinned, “I’ll need you to cover the bill later, Master.”
“You’re so stingy. All your pocket money comes from me,” Luo Feng said, “Alright, lead the way!”
“Let’s go!” Morosa said decisively, leading Luo Feng out of the cave dwelling.
…
Under Morosa’s lead, after flying for a while, Luo Feng and he arrived at an ordinary restaurant called ‘Fire Realm Restaurant’. This restaurant wasn’t very large and was quite inconspicuous in Huyang City.
“In this era, I’ve tasted many delicacies, and the Fire Realm Feast here is my favorite. It’s also not too expensive,” Morosa introduced.
Luo Feng looked up.
The name ‘Fire Realm Restaurant’ was integrated into the formation, making it quite eye-catching.
“Black Butcher, come out quickly!” Morosa shouted. At the same time, he explained to Luo Feng, “Master, the Black Butcher is the owner of this restaurant. I’ve come here many times and am very familiar with him. He came to Origin Continent through the Reincarnation Passage.”
“Through the Reincarnation Passage to Origin Continent?” Luo Feng was surprised.
A stout man with hair and beard like steel needles came out to greet them. He was covered in scales, had fangs, and his eyes were like burning stars. He walked out enthusiastically, humble and respectful, “It’s an honor to have the Supreme One visit my Fire Realm Restaurant.”
This was an Eternal True God!
Since the restaurant opened, the number of Eternal True God customers could be counted on one hand.
“Quickly prepare your best Fire Realm Feast,” Morosa urged.
“Please, this way.” The stout man, ‘Black Butcher,’ immediately led the way.
Inside one of the small buildings of Fire Realm Restaurant.
Luo Feng and Morosa took their seats.
“I need to prepare the Fire Realm Feast personally. Please wait a moment,” Black Butcher said respectfully before leaving. Meanwhile, a server came in and brought some wine and appetizers.
As soon as the server entered, Luo Feng noticed him and was surprised, “Is it you, little guy?”
The server was the young man named ‘Suo Zhi’ from the tribe Luo Feng had saved.
“Greetings, Supreme One,” Suo Zhi quickly bowed respectfully.
“Hahaha…” Morosa laughed, “I’ve been here many times and often have Suo Zhi serve. Master, you saved them before, and now meeting in the restaurant is quite a coincidence.”
“It is quite a coincidence.” Luo Feng nodded, “How did you end up working at this restaurant?”
Suo Zhi was very grateful to the kind Eternal True God. Without Luo Feng, their entire tribe would have perished.
“Reporting to the Supreme One, after Suo Yun and I settled in Huyang City, we needed to earn chaos crystals to pay for living expenses and our cultivation. I was lucky that the owner took a liking to me and hired me as an apprentice,” Suo Zhi said.
“This kid has a talent for cooking,” Morosa said, “Having good cooking skills can help you settle in Huyang City.”
Suo Zhi immediately said, “I’m learning from the owner.”
“Your owner is quite famous in Huyang City. Coming from the legendary Primitive Universe through the Reincarnation Passage to Origin Continent, he was already skilled in cooking. After learning some cooking techniques from Origin Continent, he combined both skills. Among Void True Gods, your owner’s cooking is unique,” Morosa praised, now a true gourmet.
Suo Zhi nodded, “I’m working hard to learn. If I don’t, I’ll be kicked out and forced to fight outside.”
Luo Feng listened and asked, “What about your brother who settled in Huyang City with you?”
“Suo Yun became an ordinary guard for a large family,” Suo Zhi said softly, “risking his life.”
Luo Feng understood.
An ordinary guard for a large family was just cannon fodder! Always rushing forward for the hard and dangerous tasks.
“They both have some talent, which is why they found work,” Morosa said, “From my observations, about half of the True Gods in Huyang City have to hunt exotic beasts outside frequently.”
Luo Feng was aware of this information.
Most mid to low-level beings on Origin Continent lived by hunting exotic beasts. Many were involved in collecting and processing exotic beast materials, forming a large industry.
As for service jobs in a large city? The threshold was very high. Without enough talent and strength, you couldn’t get those service jobs.
While they were chatting.
“Here it comes.” The restaurant owner, ‘Black Butcher,’ walked in. With a wave of his hand, a sumptuous feast appeared, with various dishes, the most eye-catching being the large, flaming red meat in the center.
The meat in the center emitted a fiery aura.
“Supreme One, I became a True God through the culinary path back in my homeland, the Primitive Universe,” Black Butcher said with a smile, “After becoming a Void True God, I went through the Reincarnation Passage to Origin Continent. However, I struggled to establish myself in Huyang City with my culinary skills alone. So, I started from scratch, working as a butcher, helping to slaughter exotic beast materials, and learning their properties step by step. After five million eras, I finally succeeded and opened this Fire Realm Restaurant.”
“Supreme One, please enjoy my Fire Realm Feast.” Black Butcher was very confident.
In the long history of Origin Continent, there were many strong people who came through the Reincarnation Passage from three thousand Primitive Universes. Every Chaos State had some.
To attract customers and promote his business, Black Butcher tried every method!
“Let me try.” Luo Feng began to taste the dishes.
Black Butcher watched nervously from the side.
If an Eternal True God liked and frequently visited, it would be a live advertisement! His restaurant’s reputation would grow, attracting more customers.
Luo Feng tasted each dish. The appetizers and wine were just good.
When he finally ate the large meat in the center, his
eyes lit up.
“Master, you need to take big bites to fully enjoy the flavor,” Morosa said. Luo Feng listened and took a big bite, with a third of the meat flying out, shrinking rapidly into his mouth.
The meat was large, but he easily chewed and swallowed it.
“Boom!!!”
Luo Feng felt a flame spreading from his stomach to his entire body, as if refining his entire divine body. His soul consciousness also felt warm and cozy.
“Eating the Fire Realm Feast is like swallowing a world of flames, making your divine body and soul feel transformed,” Black Butcher said, “You’ll feel like you’ve been reborn.”
Luo Feng smiled and glanced at him.
Reborn?
Not that miraculous! But it was indeed very comfortable.
For those with weaker divine bodies, they might really feel a ‘divine body and soul transformation’ and ‘rebirth’.
“How does the Supreme One find it?” Black Butcher was a bit nervous.
“Not bad,” Luo Feng praised.
Black Butcher nodded, “This is my unique creation. In Huyang City’s top restaurants, the culinary skills are passed down by Chaos Overlords or Divine Kings. Mine is just a small path.”
Luo Feng took a sip of wine and said, “Cultivation is fundamental. Coming from the Primitive Universe, you can’t practice the bloodline cultivation method.”
“That’s right.” Black Butcher nodded, “I can only follow the law path, but comprehending the law source is too difficult! Even on Origin Continent, where laws are much clearer, I still encounter bottlenecks and can’t break through, so I seek external help. By opening a restaurant, I earn some wealth to buy resources for cultivation.”
“But running a restaurant is also challenging,” Black Butcher said.
“Your Fire Realm Feast is quite good. Keep it up,” Luo Feng said, eating half of it and leaving the rest to Morosa, who quickly devoured it all.
After paying 10 chaos crystals, Luo Feng and Morosa left.
Fire Realm Restaurant’s ‘Black Butcher’ and the server Suo Zhi saw them off at the restaurant’s entrance.
“Suo Zhi,” Black Butcher looked into the distance, “Do you think the Supreme One will come again?”
“The Supreme One seemed to like the Fire Realm Feast,” Suo Zhi said.
“Let’s hope.”
Black Butcher sighed, “Having an Eternal True God frequently visit would attract many True Gods!”
He had been an invincible existence in his homeland, the Primitive Universe. But after coming to Origin Continent, he struggled terribly. In terms of strength? Void True Gods were everywhere in large cities! Even the likes of Moyu Hu had to venture out.
Black Butcher was very proud internally. Exploring the wild was dangerous, and he didn’t want that. He started as a butcher and worked his way up. Today, his restaurant in Huyang City had accumulated many loyal customers.
“My restaurant needs to grow bigger so I can earn more, increasing my chances of becoming an Eternal True God!” Black Butcher turned and walked back into the restaurant.
In Huyang City, even a small restaurant owner might have an extraordinary background.
Because the city was full of hidden talents and strong people, standing out became much harder.
