Three Meals of a Reincarnator

Chapter 230: Chapter 230

“It’s Dim Sum.”

That was the dish responsible for the delicious smell.

Min Sung sat in front of the table with a happy look on his face.

A steamer made of lumber was steaming.

And beside it was dark fried noodles.

Ho Sung Lee offered an explanation.

“It’s Xiaolongbao with stir-fried beef noodles.”

Min Sung picked up his chopsticks and nodded.

“During the Qing Dynasty rule, the Xiaolongbao was introduced as a dumbling with pork inside it that stirred up quite the storm with its popularity.”

Min Sung nodded.

“It’s a dumpling with juices-”

“Shut it. The food’s getting cold.”

Ho Sung Lee pouted his lips and stepped back.

Min Sung picked up a Xiaolongbao with his chopsticks. He dipped it in soy sauce and bit into it.

The outside was soft while the inside contained hot juices.

“Isn’t it hot? I was going to tell you it’s hot.”

Ho Sung Lee asked with fascination.

Min Sung looked at him to tell him not to be a disturbance, so he could enjoy the flavors of the dim sum.

The dumpling skin was soft and the oily juices inside made the inside of his mouth nice and moist.

On top of that, the pork inside it was so satisfying that it almost felt like a strong punch to his stomach.

Gulp-

Although he had swallowed the dim sum, his mouth was still entranced by the juices that it just experienced.

He felt a sense of longing, and he enjoyed that feeling.

Min Sung dipped another piece of xiaolongbao into the soy sauce.

It tasted best while it was steaming.

Min Sung dipped it in soy sauce and put it into his mouth with confidence without cooling it down.

The juices burst inside his mouth.

The hot juices exploded in all four directions, making for a very satisfying experience.

The hot, soft, and comforting oily flavors of the pork was probably the biggest reason behind dim sum’s popularity.

After enjoying two pieces of the xiaolongbao, Min Sung looked over at the stir-fried beef noodles.

It looked delicious.

However, its sauce looked to be full of flavor, and the noodles were wide and flat, so he didn’t have very high hopes for it.

But he remembered that Ho Sung Lee would have made the dish for a reason and immediately picked up his chopsticks.

The stir-fried beef noodles were made with beef, onions, and mushrooms, and it was grilled in a way that made it smell of fire.

He picked up the wide noodles and a piece of onion and brought it to his mouth.

Slurp!

As soon as the noodles entered his mouth, he felt a sense of dryness.

The dry noodles and onion entered his mouth, but the green onions were moist, and the chewy texture was the highlight of the dish.

Min Sung chewed on the noodles with shock and looked down at the dish.

‘It’s delicious.’

It exceeded his expectations.

‘Oh my god.’

‘How can it taste this good?’

It was a dish unlike any he had tried before.

It was unique, refreshing, but delicious all at the same time.

It almost felt like someone used magic on it.

‘How is this possible?’

‘I’ve never had anything this delicious before.’

Min Sung looked at the stir-fried beef noodles in awe. He tilted his head and then proceeded to move his chopsticks.

It was definitely dry.

But it became moist when he chewed on it.

‘What kind of magic is this?’

On top of that, the green bean sprouts were crunchy while the soft beef added to the sweet flavors, and the key player in the sweetness was the grilled onions.

The onions smelled of fire.

It was absolutely delicious.

So much that he almost lost his mind.

Min Sung glared at Ho Sung Lee.

In response, Ho Sung Lee flinched.

“I-is it that bad?”

“No. It’s sensational.”

Ho Sung Lee knitted his brows.

“You startled me.”

Min Sung looked down at the stir-fried beef noodles.

The color made it obvious that the dish was soaked in soy sauce, but the fact that it wasn’t salty was what made this dish outstanding.

Even when he took a big bite of it, it didn’t burden his tastebuds at all.

Min Sung focused all of his energy on the stir-fried beef noodles.

The combination of the xiaolongbao and the stir-fried beef noodles was perfection.

***

After finishing his meal and showering, Min Sung’s party headed toward the port in order to take a boat to the inner continent.

They thought it was going to be empty, but the port was filled with people waiting to board the ship.

But there weren’t many players. They were mostly Beatrice natives.

And all of the Beatrice natives were checking in their luggage, and it appeared that they were going for trade purposes.

Since they were in a different industry, Min Sung didn’t mind them and looked to Ho Sung Lee.

“When’s boarding?” Min Sung asked.

“We’re leaving soon. They’ll call us when it’s ready.”

Min Sung crossed his arms and nodded.

The ship then let out a large horn sound in order to notify everyone that it was about to take off.

“I guess it’s time,” said Ho Sung Lee.

Soon afterward, one man called out the names and numbers and asked everyone to board.

Since science had yet to be developed in this word, the man had to shout for a very long time.

After checking the numbers one more time, Ho Sung Lee and Min Sung headed toward the entrance of the ship.

Upon confirming their seats, Min Sung looked at the scenery outside the window.

“How long does it take to the inner continent?” Min Sung asked.

“A long time. I think it’ll take at least half a day, but the engine is cast with a spell, so it’s on the fast side, but not as fast as where we come from of course.”

Min Sung nodded.

It was faster to tread the water himself, but he didn’t want to be bothered.

Even if the monstrous tree called Iris was swallowing up the earth, he didn’t feel all that responsible.

He needed a break.

After all, he had used his magic energy without break until now.

Min Sung decided that if he ran into an enemy, he would suck up their life force.

Min Sung was in the VVIP section, but he heard a lot of noise from above.

There was some kind of commotion.

He tried to ignore it, but since his sense of hearing was particularly developed, he couldn’t.

“Go up and check what’s going on and then tell them to be quiet,” said Min Sung with an annoyed face.

Ho Sung Lee bowed and left the VVIP room.

***

Ho Sung Lee passed the halls and went up the stairs to the top of the ship.

Underneath the blue sky and around the ocean scenery, a loud commotion was taking place.

‘Is it a player…?’

Ho Sung Lee walked toward the scene with a worried look on his face.

There were quite a few people gathered there, and most of them were just spectators.

One player was holding a whip and was hitting a little girl with a flushed face.

Ho Sung Lee knitted his brows at the fact that a large man was whipping a little girl so hard that she was covered in blood.

He then thought for a moment.

Since he didn’t stand a chance against a player, he had to either call Min Sung or try to step up himself.

The first choice he made between the two was the latter.

“Stop!”

Ho Sung Lee shouted and pushed his way through the crowd.

In response, the player with the whip stopped and glared at Ho Sung Lee.

“Who do you think you are, you asshole?”

The tall man with long black hair down to his back flexed his big muscles and glared at Ho Sung Lee.

“Do you want to die?”

The player with long black hair jolted his eyes open and his lips pursed.

Ho Sung Lee was scared.

The thought of him dying at the hands of this man and his whip made his legs tremble.

After all, this world only contained the most powerful humans of all the stars.

He built up the courage, but he couldn’t help but feel scared.

“Why are you hitting her?”

Ho Sung Lee asked in a way that wouldn’t irritate him too much.

“What’s it to you? Do you want to die?”

When the player whipped his whip once, a blue Aura made a large ripping sound in the air.

The sight made all spectators take a step back.

Ho Sung Lee dripped in a cold sweat and gulped.

His palms were sweaty.

‘Damn it. We haven’t even started.’

He didn’t even want to open his item window.

“How can I not interfere when you’re cruelly hitting a little girl? Please explain yourself.”

Ho Sung Lee got ready to either open his item window or run away and stared right into his eyes.

“Haha… You’re acting like there’s something wrong with me.”

The player with the whip in his hand clenched his fits.

“That’s why I’m asking you for the reason.”

“I’m going to kill you now, but I’ll give you your explanation.”

The player pointed at the girl covered in blood and lying on the ground.

“This little bastard messed with my supplies on board, so let me explain what that means.”

The player glared at the girl and continued, “This bastard touched my goods so it can’t be used anymore, and that means this shipment is screwed. She lost us so much money…!”

The man swung his whip at the girl one more time.

Slash!

The sound of the girl’s skin ripping could be heard.

Ho Sung Lee kricked his teeth.

“Are you sure that girl did it?”
