I Am the Madman of This Family

Episode 62. yellow haired beast (2)

Kether brought two chariots.

Among them, the cloth of the small cart was removed.

“Arbold!”

Arbold, the vice-captain of the Silver Leopard Knights. He was on his knees with his head bowed.

Keter drew a needle from her bosom and stabbed him in the back of the head. Then I woke up like a person struck by lightning.

“Oops!”

Keter pushes the awakened Arvold to Zordic.

Zordic looked at Arvold. There were no signs of torture. However, like himself, he could see at a glance that not only his aura but also his muscular strength were limited.

“Now, shall we begin the torture?”

Keter pulled one of the remaining carts towards Zordic.

Arvold, who came to his senses, grasped the situation and smiled.

“no use. Who do you think this is? He is the legitimate direct descendant of Vident, a renowned spearman, and one of the seven dragons of the Lillian Kingdom selected by the ‘Syndicate’, a mystical group that evaluates prospects most objectively in the world! It’s Zordyk, the blue dragon!”

“Kuhm.”

Zordyk told Arvold to stop and grabbed his shoulder. However, Arbold was already furious and did not stop.

“Is that all? He was the first to jump into the battlefield and the last to appear, and he single-handedly defeated the named monster Giricox. Do you think such a Master Zordyk would succumb to torture? Pluck out your eyeballs and burn your internal organs with fire!”

Sweat broke out on Zordic’s hands.

Everything Arbold said was true.

But isn’t that and torture separate?

Tearing flesh and breaking bones in a state of excitement and splitting flesh in a sober state were completely different realms.

More than anything, Zordyk was nervous.

‘Pain removal surgery, I forgot how to do it.’

Pain relief, a technique learned in preparation for captivity. It’s been 10 years since I learned it, and I’ve never used it.

It was definitely a skill I learned quickly. However, it was erased from my mind, probably because I had nothing to write about and thought I would never have in the future.

Meanwhile, Arvold is provoking Keter.

It would have been better if a torture expert had come.

But Keter was more terrifying than a torturer. Simple torture such as pulling out his nails or setting himself on fire did not seem likely.

A vague fear that that guy would do terrible torture unimaginable to humans sprouted in his heart.

“Kuh-kuh-kuh, it’s an honor to torture such a great guy.”

Keter shakes off her hands and warms herself up.

Instead of pain relief, other memories came to Zordic.

“Wait a minute! Torture between people of the same kingdom is prohibited by law. If this is known, even Sefi will never be safe.”

“Thank you for worrying about me. Worry about yourself now.”

“hahahaha! Don’t waste your time in vain. When it comes to normal torture, Lord Zordyk doesn’t budge.”

“Okay, I’m running out of time, so let’s start right away. ‘Torture’… … .”

Kether grabbed the cloth that covered the cart.

Zordyk involuntarily swallowed his saliva.

What kind of torture instruments are there in there?

Chew!

The cloth has been lifted.

Then something terrible is revealed.

“That’s it!?”

Keter laughed evilly.

“Kuk-kuk-kuk, yes. What you think is right.”

Chii profit!

A large chunk of meat was placed on a pre-heated grill, making a fatal sound.

It doesn’t stop there, but buttered whole potatoes and asparagus are also served.

Keter lifted the whole steak that was being grilled on the grill and showed off the beautiful meat quality.

“It is the meat of the highest grade black horn from the Adeus Kingdom. One of these chunks is a whopping 5 gold.”

Chuwaaagh!

As Keter flips and cooks, the gravy explodes.

The humid and stuffy prison atmosphere quickly turned into a top-notch restaurant. The sticky smell of meat fills the cell in an instant.

Zordyk instinctively held his breath.

I would like to avoid it if possible.

But there was nowhere to escape.

gulp.

It wasn’t the sound of Zordyk swallowing. Arbold next to him was snoring and swallowing.

“looks delicious… … .”

The Silver Leopard Knights are not beggars. I have the capital to buy and eat such a steak to my heart’s content.

However, the two hadn’t eaten delicious food for half a year. It was because I had been eating only the diet optimized for muscle growth.

I only ate crispy chicken breasts and bitter vegetables to build up my muscle mass. In addition, recently, in response to a classified operation, he lived for a month eating only biscuits and water.

In such a situation, I came to see and even smell the finest steak.

Of course, this alone cannot break their impregnable spirit.

Keter heightened the tension by imagining torture accompanied by pain.

Delicious food that appeared in such circumstances. The tension that had been pulled up was let go, and only defenseless instincts were left.

appetite!

Humans’ fundamental desire to eat delicious food was much stronger than they imagined.

“Keugh! Keter. are you mocking me? You thought I would give in for nothing but food!”

Zordyk burst into anger.

Keter said without taking her eyes off the steak.

“Would you wipe your saliva before speaking?”

squeak, squeak.

Keter cut the steak into bite-size pieces. Even the sound of cutting was delicious.

Red flesh visible through the cut section. So far, it was rare grilled only on the outside.

“huh? what’s this. sniff sniff.”

Keter lifted the vessel at her feet. It was the flour porridge distributed to Zordyk.

“oh my. do you eat this Oops… … .”

Receiving a pitiful glance, Zordyk wanted to run at Keter right away.

But the sword is in Keter’s hand. On the other hand, all his powers were restricted.

Zordyk asked the question, not wanting to admit that he was being seduced by clumsy food.

“What the hell have you done to us? Aside from the aura, how did they even suppress our muscular strength? Isn’t Sephira using forbidden black magic!”

“Will Sephira, who doesn’t even use magic, use black magic? i did it call it acupuncture Did you hear?”

Chow chow!

Keter pulled out a condiment container and held it over the steak, dropping salt and pepper from head height.

“Now- Zordyk, give me some interesting information if you want to eat this. So, is this yours?”

“shut up! I think I would betray my family and my family for just a piece of meat!”

“Eh? Who wants to betray? Just interesting information is enough.”

“Never, I never give in.”

“Then yes.”

While we were talking, the cut of the steak turned a pale pink color before I knew it. The most delicious roasting stage, medium.

Keter popped a whole piece of steak into her mouth and chewed it. It was full of flavor with just the gravy and meat aroma, so I didn’t even need a sauce.

“Um, uh! mmm!”

Arvold’s fists trembled at the reaction that whetted his appetite.

“You cruel bastard! Tortured with dishonest food!”

“I’ll give you a bite. Come on.”

Glance.

Arbold looked at Zordic.

Zordyk shook his head.

“It is a trap. It must be poisonous.”

It was Zordyk’s slip of the tongue.

“As the captain said, I’ll try eating it to see if it’s poisonous.”

Arbold ran to Keter.

“Open your mouth. The meat goes in.”

A warm steak enters Arvold’s mouth.

“Kuhup!?”

Arvold collapses as soon as he eats the meat.

Zordyk was startled and ran out.

“Arbold! You bastard, as expected, poison!”

Zordic tried to stand up the shivering Arvold with his head down.

However, Arvold did not raise his head.

munching.

He chewed slowly, savoring the taste of the meat.

“No, drink.”

distant future.

Arbold couldn’t forget the taste of the meat Keter cooked in prison at this time, so he traveled all over the country looking for a restaurant that was said to be his best, but he couldn’t find a place that reproduced the taste.

Shortly before his death, he said this to a gathering of family and grandchildren.

‘After I die, wouldn’t I be able to taste the meat that Keter cooked at that time again?’

* * *

Zordyk said he had seen it for the first time.

Arbold making such an unsightly expression.

‘The hell is that because it’s so delicious?’

Arvold, who has the mental strength to jump into a pit of fire if he commands it, can’t come to his senses no matter how much he shakes his body.

“Zordyk. Do you like crispy ones? I hate it. If you’re like me, I’ll say anything and eat it.”

“Don’t underestimate the dignity of a nobleman and the pride of a knight!”

“Who knows that? The bugs that share the same room as you? I will- I will.”

“Keuuugh!”

Zordyk was nervous.

The bright red color of the steak is gradually turning brown.

Even Zordic, who is not familiar with cooking, knows. When that color disappears, the taste and texture deteriorate.

‘Hey, why would I care about that? no!’

puck puck!

Jordic tries to forget his appetite through pain.

Keter clicked his tongue and said.

“Oh, why are you harming yourself? okay. Do not say. I’ll go.”

Kether took hold of the handle of the chariot.

Suddenly, in Zordyk’s eyes, the bowl at Keter’s feet came into view. It was flour porridge given to him as his meal.

“Bo, Volos’ older sister’s nipples are lower than the others.”

“huh?”

Keter, who was about to leave, turned around.

“Who is Volos?”

“Kuh, he is the eldest son of the Vident family and the current head of the Soga family. It means that you are the future head of the household.”

Isn’t this advanced information?

Zordyk looked at Keter with proud eyes, hiding his sorrow.

“Puhahahahaha! that’s really funny How low are you? here? About this?”

Keter landed slightly below the average point.

“… A little lower.”

“Khahahahaha! Are you real? It’s almost attached to the ship!”

“Wow, that’s for sure. I saw it with my own eyes.”

“good. don’t believe me Aren’t we comrades who fought together? Eat before it gets cold.”

Shameless to say such a thing after beating the back of a comrade who fought together and taking him prisoner!

Zordyk wanted to say that. But with a fork in his left hand and a knife in his right, he was already slicing steak.

“omg!?”

You must kill Keter with this fork and knife!

‘Just taste it.’

It seemed like he wouldn’t be able to sleep if he didn’t check how delicious Arvold was.

Before long, Zordyk’s eyes widened as he put the piece of steak in his mouth.

… explode

Sweet, salty, and savory in the mouth.

explode into each other.

To be sure, the taste was incomparable to any meat or food Zordyk had ever eaten.

“Three, does this kind of taste exist in the world?!”

The will to do something with Keter has already been blown away. He began to savor the steak, putting it in his mouth quickly and chewing it slowly.

“Damn, boss. I would also like a bite.”

Arvold, waking up from the long afterglow, spoke earnestly, but Zordic only held out asparagus.

Keter left the prison, leaving the two alone.

Outside the prison, a real torture technician was waiting.

“Brother Keter. What the hell did you do? I have never seen a knight give in so easily. Even with food… … !”

Sephira’s torture technician had been torturing serious criminals in his youth. There were many knights and wizards among them.

Possessing extraordinary mental strength, they easily endured the torture that others succumb to in a day for a month. There were many knights who kept secrets until they died.

Even the opponent is the son of the Vident family who is said to have a strong sense of pride. He even has the title Changryong.

“It’s because I’ve never tasted real cuisine. There is a saying that ‘when you experience a level that goes beyond the taste that ordinary humans experience, food is not simply eaten to live’.”

“Oh, I’ve heard that too. Isn’t that what Demeter, the world’s best chef recognized by the emperor, said? Rumor has it that the blind can open their eyes and the crippled can rise to their feet when they eat his food. hahahaha, that can’t be the case.”

When the torture technician mentioned Demeter, Keter’s eyes changed. It was Demeter who taught Keter how to cook.

Demeter, a man crazy about cooking.

He came into liqueur with the purpose of finding the ingredient of immortality.

Keter had learned the art of cooking in return for giving him a safe place to sleep and tips on liqueur.

“Anyway, what did I tell you to do?”

“ah… yes. Never send anyone to prison except when giving meals, and meals are unconditionally flour porridge. And I will cut down on the liver a little bit every day.”

“After that?”

“Every Monday, I will torture you with dishes made with the finest ingredients. It doesn’t have to be a particularly great dish, and never give it unless you tell it a secret, but give it food if you tell it even a trivial secret. I understand everything.”

Keter nodded.

“Don’t do anything other than what you’re told to do. never.”

It is Keter that even the head of Sephira cannot stop. It was a story that could never be taken lightly.

“yep! I will keep that in mind!”

The torture technician roared and bowed politely to Keter as he departed.

* * *

It’s been a long time since I tried Master Demeter’s cooking technique. Even though it’s quite annoying, the taste is awesome.

Master said that if you reach the ultimate state, you can perform miracles… I’m not interested in that.

More than that, what is Master trying to do at this time? Did you try to find another disciple besides me?

As long as you can eat food made with Master’s recipe, 100 gold or 1,000 gold is not a waste.

But, as far as I know, I am the only successor of Demeter.

However, doing it myself is annoying.

This means that the annoyance is greater than the satisfaction.

As for cooking, cooking cooked by others is the best.

Anyway, I’ll take care of Zordyk. Now all I had to do was take Luke with me.

Three conditions to participate in the southern sword.

One of them was obtained while rescuing old man Panir.

From noble mtl dot com

All that’s left now is to get a letter of recommendation from the southern sword and get a diamond class dog tag from the mercenary guild – I plan to handle everything in liqueur.

I always wanted to stop by the liqueur and pick up a few things, and I wanted to see the youngest.

It’s only been four days since we broke up in this life, but if you add up your previous lives, it’s the first time we’ll meet in 30 years.

Kya, it’s new, but they’re all alive now.

Sword Demon Balt is still alive, and even the godfather’s daughter who liked me… … .

“Keter! I finally found it.”

On my way to pick up Luke, Anise suddenly blocked my path.

It looks like there’s a lot of poison in it. There are quite a lot less gaps than last time. After all, what makes humans grow is anger and vengeance.

Anise said with a determined face.

“I can’t avoid it this time. It’s a confrontation. I will return the humiliation I went through!”
