Zongman, Rebirth of the Heaven-Defying Kirito

Puffer whale, a delicacy from the 'captive of gourmet food'.

But how come he is here?

As Kirito continued to sink, he seemed to have found the answer.

At the bottom of the lake, he found the dimensional wall that he had released earlier.

Logically speaking, these dimensional walls would only appear in places where there were no players (except Kirito of course), so it was a real surprise to see them here.

In other words, this dimensional wall brought the delicacies from the world of "Captives of Gourmet Food" to the world of SAO.

This is a big discovery.

It seems that the use of the dimensional wall in SAO is correct. It is safe and harmless, and can also bring surprises to yourself.

Then a mouthful of air came out of Kirito's mouth - he was running out of oxygen.

Kirito immediately swam to the surface of the lake, while also thinking of how to deal with the puffer whale.

The puffer whale is a dream whale known as the "delicacy of the deep sea". After becoming an adult, it will migrate to the deep sea. The originally huge body is compressed by the pressure of the deep sea to its current size of half a meter.

While all the essence in the body is compressed, the toxins in the body are also compressed, forming a poison sac containing highly toxic substances.

In addition, puffer whales are extremely sensitive by nature. Not to mention a slight touch, even if it is frightened, the venom sac in its body may rupture, causing the entire puffer whale to be poisoned instantly.

No wonder so many people are discussing being poisoned by pufferfish. It would make sense if it was a puffer whale.

After all, even if the venom sac of the puffer whale ruptures and becomes poisonous, it is still delicious and will still be a blow to the SAO world.

After all, in the original world, it is known as "delicious food that people want to try even if they will die after eating it", and about 10 people die from it every year.

Kirito was once again thankful that he opened the dimensional wall in SAO. He couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if such a thing were circulated on the market.

Asuna saw Kirito come to the surface and asked, "Kirito, did you catch anything?"

Kirito came ashore and explained, "No, I ran into a little trouble."

There are two troubles: one is catching it, the other is cooking it.

After telling Asuna what she knew, she made a gesture of "leave the cooking to me".

Kirito joked, "That's in another world, a technique only a dozen people have mastered. Can it really be done?"

"Don't underestimate me. When it comes to cooking, there are very few people in SAO who can compare to me."

Then Asuna shared her cooking level.

【Cooking skill level 100】

Kirito was shocked by the exaggerated level. Asuna's cooking skills had reached the maximum level.

You should know that in SAO, each level up will give 10 ability points, and ordinary players will allocate them to their favorite attributes, such as attack, speed...

However, SAO also added some so-called "secondary occupation attributes", which are completely useless in combat, and only production players will click on one or two of them.

These include leisure skills such as cooking, blacksmithing, and fishing.

Each time you max out a secondary job skill, you will need to spend 10 attribute points to level up.

Strategy players like Kirito don't even want to touch the secondary job skills, and even thinking about it feels like an insult to their IQ.

Maybe only semi-casual players like Asuna would max it out.

If you think about it carefully, wouldn't the maximum level of cooking skills be able to process all ingredients?

After all, SAO's skills are rule-based, so even cooking doesn't have to be done by hand, all you have to do is hold the kitchen knife and give instructions.

Thinking of this, Kirito felt that it was worth a try!

At the same time, he also thought of a way to capture puffer whales - a way to salvage them ashore without acupuncture.

Kirito first took out a wooden container of water from his backpack, preferably a larger one, about two meters in diameter.

Then fill them with lake water.

Everything is ready, and Kirito dives into the lake again: "Asuna, just wait for my good news!"

The necessary ability required for capture is naturally the invincible dimensional wall!

Kirito reached out his hand: "Go ahead."

Then he released a dimensional wall from his palm.

The location of the dimensional wall is exactly on the path that the puffer whale must take, and the exit of the dimensional wall is placed in a water container on the shore.

In this way, the puffer whale will swim silently and automatically into the container on the shore.

During the entire process, no one stimulated the puffer whale, so naturally its poisoning would not be triggered.

"Okay, just as expected." Kirito breathed a sigh of relief, half of the plan was completed.

What? You ask if the puffer whale hits the wall in the container, won't it be stimulated and poisoned?

Kirito naturally thought of this, so he arranged a second layer of insurance.

A dimensional wall is also arranged on the edge of the container, and this time the exit is also in the container.

Whenever the puffer whale is about to touch the container, it will be teleported to the tail end of the container.

In this way, the puffer whale will never reach the reality of 'hitting the wall'!

Looking at everything he had done, Kirito nodded with satisfaction. After all, there was no delicacy that he could not catch, even if the other party was a puffer whale of capture level 29!

Asuna praised him, "That's amazing! You've already caught five."

"Of course." There was no hiding of the complacent expression.

Asuna saw something blurry on the wall of the container, and every time the puffer whale entered it, it would reappear at the back.

I thought it was very novel, so I pointed and asked, "What is this?"

"Just some special abilities." Kirito said openly.

Asuna mistook it for a special skill in SAO and did not ask any further questions.

Then Kirito asked, "How is it, can you handle it?"

If there is delicious food in front of you, you must never let it go. Even if you die of poisoning, you still have to taste it. This is Kirito's creed of food.

Asuna took out a kitchen knife from her backpack and started cooking directly on the container.

If it were placed in the world of "Gourmet Prisoners", the moment the kitchen knife touched the puffer whale, it would feel dangerous and poison itself.

But this is SAO! The rules are different!

Asuna was seen using a kitchen knife to gently cut across the puffer whale, making a cutting motion.

Even though he hadn't touched the fish's bodies, he had already dissected all five fish, revealing the purple poison sacs inside them.

Then Asuna lightly clicked on the menu bar, and the poison sacs of the five fish disappeared instantly. It seemed that they were directly removed by the game system.

Kirito was surprised and said: "It's so simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple. If Kirito maxes out his cooking skills, he can do the same." Asuna said with a smile.

This will cost a lot of attribute points, so let's just forget it.

Immediately afterwards, the puffer whale, whose venom sac had been removed, emitted a dazzling golden light.

The scene was like the advent of god-level cuisine!

Kirito's intuition told him that the puffer whale would taste delicious even if he ate it with his hands!

But he suppressed his appetite and waited for Asuna to prepare more.

When Asuna saw the glowing food, she also showed a curious expression and asked, "How would you like to eat it, Kirito?"

Any hesitation would be disrespectful to his appetite, so Kirito immediately said:

"Use the tongue to fry food; use the dorsal fin to make soup; use the fin to soak in wine; use the meat from the back to make sashimi..."

I asked you to choose how to eat it, and you told me the name of the dish?

Asuna immediately interrupted Kirito: "Stop, there are too many. I can only choose one at a time."

"Then carry the meat sashimi!"

Asuna nodded, took out a fish from the container, and placed it on a plate.

Then she used a kitchen knife to make a light cut, and a menu of dishes appeared in front of Asuna.

Click on Sashimi dishes.

In an instant, the puffer whale's body split open like a blooming flower, revealing the most delicious meat in its body to the two men.

The fish body is automatically broken down into countless thin slices by the game system. Each slice is similar in size, transparent throughout, and extremely delicious.

Then Asuna poured the sauce on the sashimi. It seemed to be soy sauce used to enhance the flavor, but the taste was more mellow.

I guess the sauce must have been prepared by Asuna herself, and it tastes like this because of her top-level cooking skills.

Asuna gently handed over a pair of chopsticks: "Please use it."

Kirito took it, picked up a few pieces of sashimi and put them in his mouth to taste.

It has a sweet taste and is chewy, with the smooth texture of premium bluefin tuna and the sweet fat of premium whale.

Then the fresh fragrance of the sea slowly spreads through the fish meat, making people feel the taste of heaven.

I was so moved that I almost shed tears.

How can there be such delicious food in the world?

Asuna took a small sip and felt the same way.

Then the two of them sat side by side, admiring the scenery of the lake while enjoying the food.

Asuna took this opportunity to ask, "I didn't expect that it was Kirito who helped me..."

Afraid that Kirito would play dumb, he added: "…about Yuuki."

"That can't be helped. Asuna looked so sad at that time. I just don't want to see that expression..."

Seeing that Kirito was still demonstrating, Asuna didn't intend to expose him: "But anyway, thank you, Kirito..."

Then Kirito felt a weight on his shoulders, and found Asuna lying on him.

“…Asuna?”

Kirito called softly and found that the other person had fallen asleep. He could still feel the other person's even breathing at such a close distance.

That's right, Asuna has been worrying about Yuuki's affairs these days, so it's normal for her to feel tired.

Kirito brushed the hair around Asuna's mouth back, then leaned back and gently placed the person leaning on his shoulder on his legs.

Now Asuna was enjoying Kirito's lap.

Then Kirito fell into thought.

Ok?

Something seems wrong, as if the characters are reversed and Tiangang is reversed.

Shouldn't I be enjoying Asuna's lap pillow? Why is it the other way around?

But looking at Asuna's comfortable sleeping expression, she would occasionally rub her thigh, as if she had dreamed of something good.

Kirito shook his head, this seemed to be a good idea.

Then he put the matter behind him, as he had more important things to do - the sashimi that the two of them had not finished was now his alone!

Kirito thought about it again and turned on the camera function.

After adjusting the viewing angle, a photo was taken of the two people in their current pose.

In the photo, Asuna was leaning on Kirito's legs with her eyes closed and an unconscious smile on her face.

Very good, this is Kirito's evaluation of the quality of the photo.

Reviews alone are not enough, we also need audiences.

Please welcome our victim, Ms. Yuki.

Click on Yuki's chat box and send the photo.

Then the text reads: [Give up, now Asuna and the pufferfish are in my hands! ]

Sure enough, Yuuki replied not long after: [What? You actually found the pufferfish without my knowledge? Where are you...]

He sent several angry expressions in succession, as if he was angry because she was not taken to eat good food.

Kirito nodded and showed a 'crappy' smile, which was exactly the expression he wanted to see.

Today's contest was a complete victory for Kirito!
