Never Die Extra

Chapter 300

Evan D. Sherden, Looting the Dragon’s Nest (4)

As a top cook in the monster cooking industry, the owner gasped at the dragon meat in front of him, gaping like a guppy.

“No, my God. Master… I’ve never seen anything like this in my entire life.”

Bright red, taut flesh and white oil embroidered like a delicate spider’s web…it was meat that he was sure would give the best taste, even if it were baked right away without ripening. No monster’s flesh could be like this.

“Is it beef? Did you enhance the quality of the cow? No, it’s not beef. Just looking at the greasy pattern of the meat, it’s more of a lizard…but they usually don’t have any mana in the meat, so the mana usually gets cooked off when grilled. But not this one. The meat itself is so good that the knife bounces off!”

“The owner must be a real genius of meat.”

As soon as he saw the meat, he did a detailed analysis and guessed the flesh’s type. Evan was amazed at the owner’s skill. He didn’t intend to hide it from the owner anyway, so he told him the truth.

“This is dragon meat. Keep it a secret.”

“Hahahahahaha!”

“…”

The owner burst into laughter as soon as he heard it. Evan was looking at him calmly, so it wasn’t long before the owner’s lips started to tremble.

“I don’t know if it’s real dragon meat…”

“I promised you, owner. I’d bring you dragon meat to make a steak.”

“Is it true!?”

The owner was able to endure without fainting because he had been through many amazing things with Evan until now. He looked at the dragon meat.

“I don’t know if I should laugh or cry. I’ve heard that there are only a limited number of body parts that can be looted from monsters. I can’t believe you’ve caught that precious dragon and looted the meat…”

“Dragon steak is important, after all.”

Cooking content hadn’t been developed much in the Yo-Ma Great War Zero, and the reason for it was simple. It was because there were no main characters with great cooking skills. Nevertheless, the moment the ancient Demon Master grilled dragon meat with High Elf Mirole for the first time; all their statuses had been highly improved. Evan, who remembered it, couldn’t help but try looting it.

‘It works well even if someone who doesn’t have cooking skills does it. How good will it be if the owner, who has officially started monster cooking, cooks?’

Of course, the owner’s pure desire to try the dragon meat was one of his motives, but it was still a good choice!

“I thought dragons were extinct. Thanks to you, I have a chance to cook this kind of thing.”

“As I said before, this is a secret.”

“I’m not crazy; I won’t say anything. No one would believe me, anyway.”

The owner of the restaurant had already started analyzing the meat in earnest. He was trying to figure out how to cook it and what to add to the dish. His cooking skills were also enough for materials he had never cooked before.

“How many people can eat this one-piece, owner?”

“Hmm, if you eat enough to fill your stomach by your standards…about a hundred people could eat?”

“A hundred people. That’s good. That’s enough. Then just cut enough for 20 people and keep the rest in four people portions. There are quite a many people to feed besides my own.”

“I see. People have to know that you’re also taking care of a lot of other people.”

“You’re going to eat it, too. Don’t talk, please.”

Evan told the owner to let him know if he needed more ingredients and then ordered the Senior Team to wash their hands and wait. With this, he visited Horta and Ella.

“Horta, Ella…oh.”

“Hmm…?”

“Sorry to interrupt, keep at it.”

“Wait, wait!”

In the middle of the studio, Horta and Ella were hugging each other, so Evan turned around and left the studio. Ella, who then hurriedly shook off Horta, shouted out desperately.

“No, wait a minute! This is a misunderstanding! Horta caught me almost falling! I don’t have intercourse with humans!”

“Master, we’re all right. You can tell me if you have anything.”

“Hey, It didn’t even look like you were about to fall…”

Evan opened his eyes slowly. He had known since he first met them that those two had a good relationship. However, he couldn’t believe the two from different races had developed such a good relationship in that short of a time…

‘No, it’s not a short time, now that I think about it. It’s been more than four years since Ella came to Sherden.’

Evan grinned and turned around. Ella’s face was red, while Horta looked calm. Indeed, he showed a veteran charm, one that fit the middle-aged blacksmith.

“Horta, tell me if you two ever get married. I’ll give you a great wedding gift.”

“Oh…then, please, Master.”

“No, you idiot! What are you talking about, Horta!?”

Ella hit Horta on the back and grew angry, but honestly, it didn’t look painful at all because Ella had intentionally loosened her power. Evan could define her personality in one word, but he decided not to. He didn’t want to be remembered as a human beaten to death by a Dwarf.

“I’m sorry to interrupt you two. I have an urgent business to attend to.”

“What is it? Hasn’t it been a long time since you’ve found me yourself?”

Even though it was denied on the surface, Ella clearly didn’t like being disturbed during her love affair with Horta.

“To keep the promise I made with you a long time ago.”

“Promise? Me? You?”

Ella asked, her head tilted. Yes, Evan was expecting that reaction. Evan didn’t mean to keep that promise when he had told her about it. In other words, the existence of the 97th floor Dragon of the Sherden Dungeon had been a lie itself.

“I told you I’d let you handle the Dragon Bone.”

“Huh, you human kid. I know I was fooled by your lie at that time. Of course, it’s a good thing that we’re now making better blades day by day…”

“How sad. I just did my best to recruit you. I’ve never told a lie.”

Evan grumbled at Ella, who didn’t understand his mind. Ella faked that she was going to throw up. She was one of the few people on whom Evan’s beauty didn’t work on.

“Whoa, if Ella thinks so, there’s nothing I can do…then, Horta.”

“I’m listening, Master.”

“I’ll leave the Dragon Bone with you. I can’t help it if Ella doesn’t like it.”

“Okay, Master. I’ll make you whatever you want.”

“…Huh?”

Ella, listening to the conversation between the two, flinched. It was because the red-spirited bones and large scales had now popped out of Evan’s arms. However, Evan ignored Ella neatly and continued.

“I brought the hardest and most powerful parts mixed with mana. These are from the nest, and I think it’s best to grind them and use them as catalysts because they might have a little weaker mana power.”

“You’re the Master, indeed. I can’t believe I’m going to deal with Dragon Bone…”

“You know it, don’t you, Horta? A weapon made of Dragon Bone…”

“I’ve heard that anything can be made into an artifact.”

Over the years with Evan, the eyes of Horta, the artifact craftsman, who had created many artifacts without Dragon Bone, were now burning with intense passion.

“So, I’m going to create an artifact that only I can make with the ability developed by you, Master.”

“That’s a good spirit. I always believe in you, Horta…hahaha.”

“Hey, human! Evan! Let me handle Dragon Bone too! You said you’d keep your promise!”

Ella, who couldn’t stand it anymore, ran to Evan, grabbed his waist, and shouted, waving him wildly. Her desperate appearance made Horta burst into laughter.

“I’m sorry, I thought you were mean to me as usual! Look, I apologize, so let me handle Dragon Bone! Please, should I kneel?”

“I knew there would be a strong reaction coming from you, but it’s more intense than I expected. Besides, you’ve mastered human language beyond perfection.”

“Master!”

“Yes, I know.”

Evan handed Ella over to Horta, who had a smile on his lips. Ella struggled with her arms and legs, but Evan’s next words calmed her down.

“I was going to ask both of you from the beginning. If you work together, you’ll get a better result.”

“Argh, grrrr. You lied to me again. You lied to me again!”

Ella burst into angry tears. However, there was a clear sense of satisfaction on her face. Rather than anger at Evan for deceiving her, she was very happy to work with the Dragon Bone.

“Then, please. Can you sort out the parts and trim the basics?”

“Master, I heard that the Dragon Bone has a metal property…”

“That’s right. You can melt it with fire and process it. It’s the bone of the Red Dragon, so the response will be better.”

They couldn’t melt it with ordinary fire, but that problem wouldn’t be that difficult because the Dwarf Ella was good at handling the brazier’s flames. If it didn’t work, she could ask Belois to light some Hellfire.

“Now, the owner is trimming the dragon meat, so both of you should come and have a piece of meat. There’s a lot of it, so don’t hesitate.”

“That’s right. I didn’t think you’d bring only bones. You took the meat first when you hunted the Ogre!”

“I brought it because I had an idea. If you don’t like it, then leave it.”

“Who said no? I’m going to eat it, no matter what!”

“I have a good drink, so I’ll bring it.”

“Of course, Horta knows his stuff.”

Ella didn’t have to worry because she had enough meat and bones. The number of bones brought in and the dragon’s size was so large that even though Evan only picked the best parts and looted, the total amount was over 100 kilograms. In other words, all the knights could have a feast, and they could still be armed with the Dragon Bones.

‘No, if done well, I might have enough left to coat other weapons. Then I’ll pick the best of the Ironwall Knights…’

Dragon Bone Coating would also need the help of the alchemists. As soon as Evan had given permission, Ella immediately jumped into the pile of Dragon Bones and cried with happiness. Horta was looking at her with an innocent smile. Leaving them behind, Evan left their studio. He was thinking about whether he should get a sign with a heart mark for them.

‘Okay, let’s go. To the main event…’

Evan grinned and went out of the headquarters. At this, the loudest shout of the day broke out from the pharmacy.

“It’s a dragon heart!”
