No one knows King Arthur better than I do

But after hearing what Merlin said was reasonable, she fell into deep thought.

Merlin was still smiling.

He didn't care about Arturia's thoughts at all, because he knew Artoria very well, so he naturally knew that this meant that he had convinced her.

as predicted...

Artoria thought for a while, then took the skirt from Merlin's hand.

"You're right, so be it, Mei Linqing."

……

9. Cooking (EX)

Carl's tavern was open as usual, empty as always.

It's just that compared to usual, today's Carl sat at the table in the middle of the tavern, and arranged meat, fish, eggs, and vegetables in the four corners of the room in advance——

Although this is not in line with science, it is definitely in line with metaphysics!

Open the skylight at the top of the tavern casually, let the sunlight gather into a beam along the top of the head, directly covering the tables and chairs in the center of the tavern, and at this moment, Carl placed a basin here, repeatedly After washing my hands and face three times, I finally breathed out.

"It's time to draw again, this time draw me an Ultraman Transformer!"

Carl's lottery draw can be drawn at regular intervals.

She has been smoking for such a long time, but apart from the novice gift pack, the things she draws are generally plant seeds, weapon forging methods, agricultural encyclopedias, wine making techniques, system +1 and the like.

If it was before Carl saw the white dragon, then these things would actually be good enough.

But after he saw the white dragon, he really wanted to smoke an Ultraman's transformation device.

Make sense.

To deal with that huge monster, it really needs to be dealt with by Ultraman.

As one of the few heroes that Karl has seen and can leave an impression on him, Karl feels that Kamen Rider is not professional enough to deal with such a huge monster, and it really needs Ultraman!

If he can become Ultraman, that white dragon will definitely not be his opponent!

At that time, the idea of ​​​​running to Saxon to become the emperor of the land may continue to be extended.

so...

"please!"

With this in mind, Carl pressed the draw button.

As the huge turntable began to shake, after the pointer rotated rapidly, it finally landed on one of the countless options.

[Culinary skills: EX (the world's top)]

amount……

After all, although Karl didn't know how the system's evaluation from E to EX came from, this was indeed the first EX-level reward he drew, and it was still a skill.

but...

"Why cooking!?"

"If you think about it this way, it seems that the ones I opened before were all crops and the like... Could it be that I got these things because I opened a tavern?"

"In other words, if I want to be a hero, I will be given the Ultraman Transformer..."

Knowing that the things drawn by the system are all random, Karl shook his head helplessly. After sitting here and talking for a while, he gave up the idea that was born in his head.

"But cooking..."

After fusing the skills, Karl could clearly feel that there were a lot more things in his mind.

At first, because this was the first time he had received an EX-level reward, Karl had no idea what the EX level represented.

But after he sorted out the sudden extra knowledge in his mind, moved his hands a little, and felt his extra muscle memory, Karl finally understood how terrifying the EX that was rated as the highest level by the system was. .

Cooking (EX) was originally in Carl's thinking because he thought that the food he made should become delicious.

But in fact, because of the influence of cooking skills (EX), Karl can obviously feel that his physique has improved slightly.

You know, he can give Bailong a sword.

For ordinary people, he definitely feels like a superman.

And the influence brought about by cooking skills can actually make his body stronger... This was something Carl hadn't expected at the very beginning.

Not to mention those recipes in your head...

"Glow cooking... isn't this something that only appeared in the animations I watched when I was young?"

Although Karl doesn't know many new animations, he still has impressions of some of them he watched when he was a child.

I remember that at the end of the animation, there was even a means of using cooking skills to manipulate the high-level.

Because his cooking skills have reached the highest level, his cooking skills must have surpassed that animation, so what the chefs there can do, Karl must also be able to do it.

What super five senses, what emits flames, even in his mind there is a recipe that makes people blush unconsciously after eating, and even burst clothes (

Really super able to cook.

However, Karl just recalled the relevant memories, and quickly threw them aside.

After all, animation is animation, and some unreasonable things are normal.

But the world he lives in now is a reality for him. Although there are unreasonable things in the reality, if you look carefully, there must be traces to follow.

Manipulate the high-level with cooking?

Ha ha.

This Camelot, the future top management of Britain is the Eternal King Arthur, and there are other legendary figures such as Merlin, Lancelot, and Morgan.

These guys look like foodies?

So this cooking skill can only make him eat better and improve the business of the store.

Carl shook his head at this, and closed the skylight above his head-this time the lottery also failed.

Just when Karl went to clean up with such thoughts, the door of the tavern was pushed open very rarely.

Following Carl's gaze, the sunlight from outside the tavern came in along the door, and standing at the door was a woman who had a stronger sense of existence than the sun and was more holy than clean sunlight.

And behind her was a bearded old man who looked very wretched.

"Mei Kejin, is this the place you mentioned?"

Merlin in the form of Meckkin nodded to Arturia who was dressed in women's clothes and wore some makeup and a princess braid, and walked straight into Karl's tavern.

"That's right, Al, it's here."

……

10. Arthur deserves the title of the Chosen King

What did the British eat?

Some people may say mashed potatoes, but in fact the origin of potatoes is South America, and they only flowed in at the end of the 15th century, so in fact there is not even mashed potatoes in Britain at this time.

What are they eating now?

Hunting wild animals, grilling meat, stewing meat, and then there are fruits, vegetables, and bread made from wheat that is not very productive.

But there is a problem involved here.

That is sugar, salt and the like are scarce goods at the moment.

Not to mention sugar, most of it is honey.

The salt is only rough sea salt, and there is no way to purify the refined salt.

Moreover, people in this era do not drink milk. Before the sterilization technology is mature, milk is not a good thing, and it may even cause diseases if you drink it.

So in this day and age, it’s basically just a plate, with a slightly salty steak, some fruit, and a bowl of uncomplicated broth is a pretty good meal.

Basically drink.

Even just a rough ale is guaranteed to have a taste in your mouth.

so...

Arturia and Merlin, who were aliased as Al and Meckkin, almost opened up a new world after they came to Carl's tavern.

Grilled soft steak, sprinkled with a lot of spices, salad mixed with special seasoning, and baked golden apple pie in the middle.

smells good.

Artoria thought so, and took a knife and fork to cut off a piece of apple pie. When she put the apple pie in her mouth, it was crispy, sweet and sour, and full of flavor!

The instant burst of taste in her mouth made her narrow her eyes subconsciously.

then…

Although her eating movements are still as elegant, the overall speed has increased significantly.

A large apple pie, two large steaks, a large bowl of salad and a pot of stew that Carl served afterward.

All these things entered Artoria's stomach in less than half an hour.

And Merlin just drank some wine and ate a little.

——It’s not that he doesn’t want to eat, it’s that he can’t get anything to eat from Arturia’s hands.

It wasn't until the meal was almost finished that Artoria wiped her mouth, and then nodded sincerely to Karl.

"It's really delicious, thank you for your hospitality."

Seeing that Arturia had finished eating, Merlin was relieved.

Originally, according to his idea, he planned to order a little something after entering the door, and then ask Carl about some things he was curious about during the meal.

But in fact, it was obviously not asked.

Because just now he could feel that if he disturbed Arturia's meal, then something bad might happen next.

"No, I was originally a tavern owner, so it's enough to satisfy you."

"The things you have here are really good—boss, anyway, I haven't finished my wine, and there are no customers in your store at the moment. Would you like to sit down and have a chat?"

Merlin spoke directly, and it was only then that Artoria remembered that the two of them came out for business.

So her gaze also fell on Carl.

Carl didn't refuse, just nodded, and then pulled a chair from the side.

"Is there anything you want to ask?"

From the time Miss Al and Mr. Meckkin entered the door, Karl felt that the two of them should not be ordinary civilians or businessmen.

At least it's from a knight's family. Judging from the fact that Miss Al was able to maintain her elegance while maintaining her eating speed just now, there is a high probability that she is a nobleman.

His tavern is located in the back street of Camelot's main road, and it is not impossible for noble guests to come here to eat something.

"Don't be so serious, we are just killing time while eating now. Boss, can I ask you a little bit about King Arthur?"

Merlin pretended not to care, talking while drinking.

But what he said made Karl stunned for a moment.

Is this too much to drink?

In Camelot, there are indeed faint rumors that King Arthur doesn't understand people's hearts, but the rumors are all stolen, especially after King Arthur's big victory not long ago, and now Arthur is in full swing, how dare you talk about it? .

But people who drink too much are the worst to kill.

So Karl didn't refuse, just smiled, and then spoke.

"King Arthur—that's the chosen king, definitely not a mortal. Just like the legendary Irish Son of Light, he should have colorful hair, seven pupils in each eye, seven fingers, and wait until the king is angry. It should be deformed!"

"The eyes will be sunken, the mouth will be grinned to the ears, the head will become abnormally large, with a strange light, and all the hair will stand on end like bristles - it is said that as long as the king shows this posture during the battle, the enemy will be shocked when they see it." Will be scared to death!"

Hearing Carl's voice, Merlin didn't take a sip of the wine, and almost choked himself to death.

Arturia also looked strange, but she couldn't say anything,

——Because the rumors about Cu Chulainn are really like this (
