Demon hunter's Cooking Manual-Chapter 946 - 3 The Vow That Shouldn’t Be Ignored!

Screams, sharp and abnormal.

As if they would tear the eardrums apart.

Even in the chawan, layers of ripples were stirred up.

Beneath the layers upon layers of ripples, that beautiful face became unbelievably bizarre.

Jason frowned slightly.

It was not the appearance of the other that caused this, but he could sense a slight discomfort in his body when the girl in the chawan screamed.

However, it wasn’t serious.

With his physical condition, he just needed to take a deep breath, and he was completely recovered.

Without a doubt, this was ’food’ putting up resistance.

Jason had no further thoughts about this, was he not going to allow the food to resist a little when he was about to consume it?

He wasn’t an unreasonable person.

Thus, he picked up the chawan and once again drank in one gulp.

Then, he continued to pour water.

This time, no figure appeared in the chawan.

But inside the room, a chill began to emerge.

As soon as this trace of chill appeared, it rapidly expanded. Even though it was the height of summer, the room suddenly became as cold as a refrigerator set to quick-freeze mode, the entire room turned exceedingly cold.

Then... the sound of wind.

Whoo!

From weak to strong.

In a flash, it turned into a chilly wind.

A light mist clung to the windows.

Instantly, the sunlight was blocked out.

The entire room dimmed.

But then, it brightened again immediately.

However, not with warm sunshine.

Rather, it was a ghastly, pale green ghost fire.

Cold and bone-chilling.

Casting light on Jason’s rugged face, it immediately made him appear extremely fierce.

Especially when Jason opened his mouth.

Whoo!

Another gust of wind.

Much louder than the previous chilly gale.

The air in the whole room flowed towards that open mouth.

Including the three ghost fires flickering in front of Jason, which entered his mouth first.

Then, they were swallowed whole.

Jason didn’t like to do it this way.

He wanted to savor each bite of food, but these three highly active ghost fires, once entering his mouth, instantly lost their vitality, turning into what felt like marshmallows - fluffy at first but then tense, before reaching the stomach.

Not that marshmallows don’t taste good.

How could food possibly not be delicious?

It’s just that, seeing the ghost fires leap, Jason thought he’d be eating popping candy.

[Consumed small ghost fire (X3)]

[Physical Strength, Energy, Minor injuries recovered slightly!]

[Satiety +3 (X3)]

[Satiety: 1028]

...

Smacking his lips, Jason savored the sweet taste.

Then, he poured water again.

The girl in the chawan still did not appear.

Ghost fires did, though.

But as soon as the three pale green ghost fires appeared, they turned into three armored figures.

The armor was that of ancient samurai, very complete, and the faceplates even bore fierce green faces with sharp teeth.

The deep eye sockets gleamed with the color of the ghost fires from before.

The three ghost fires turned into samurai, wordlessly drew their long swords from their waists, and charged at Jason.

Jason frowned.

The three ghost fires turned into samurai were not strong, nor troublesome.

It was just that the ghost fires that turned into samurai no longer had the ’flavor’ of food.

This was somewhat unacceptable to Jason.

Therefore, facing the chopping swords, Jason did not hesitate to strike.

His fist, covered with the aura of [Protection Against Evil], struck the three samurai swiftly before their swords could even touch him, and in an instant, the three ghost fires turned into samurai dissipated into ash.

Nothing was left behind.

Not to mention food.

Jason glanced around and continued pouring water into the chawan.

This time, the girl in the chawan appeared again.

"We can talk."

"Mm."

Jason nodded and drained the chawan in one gulp.

"I didn’t mean to offend you."

"Mm."

Jason nodded again, continuing to drink in one gulp.

"I had no choice just now, I’m a pitiable person too."

"Mm."

Jason still nodded, still drinking all in one gulp.

"Please let me go."

"Mm."

The girl in the chawan continued to plead, and Jason once again drank it all in a single gulp.

On the fifth time, after Jason continued to pour water into the cup, the girl appeared again.

This time, the girl did not speak but rather frowned doubtfully at Jason.

"Are you brushing me off?"

The girl asked.

Then, without giving Jason a chance to lift his cup.

Crack!

The chawan shattered directly.

Water flowed all over the table from the broken chawan.

The aroma of the food dissipated.

The water that could provide satiety turned into normal water.

Looking at the shattered chawan and the water on the table, Jason twitched his nostrils, confirming this information.

"Did you figure it out?"

Jason was still thinking that he could have another ten or so cups because the girl in the chawan seemed rather unintelligent.

But who knew, she suddenly became aware.

She cleanly severed the connection with the chawan.

"Have you recovered from the initial shock?"

Jason recalled the expression of the girl in the chawan when she first saw him.

It was surprise and fear.

"Has she seen me before? Or is it simply from sensing my aura that she gauged my strength?"

Jason pondered.

If it’s because of the aura, it suggests that the girl in the chawan is stronger than expected, with some special strength, and should taste more ’delicious.’

But this is unrealistic!

If the girl in the chawan really had such an ability, she probably would have run away the first time she saw him, and everything that followed would not have happened.

Thinking back now, it seems a bit like...

A probe!

She was trying to test him through her words and actions!
