I Want to Go Out and Have Fun

But Du Pont quickly calmed down.

Just looking at the system's introduction, this Gourmet Hunter wasn't much different from a normal Ranger, and even had a lower attack bonus.

The biggest difference was that this class could use strange magical creatures to create delicacies, providing some additional attributes.

But how much this attribute could actually improve was hard to say.

However, the Smoked Meat Pancake in his hand was now different from before.

[Excellent Smoked Meat Pancake]

Crafting Requirements: Dough, Braised Pork, Cooking Utensils

Base Attributes: Reduces hunger by 20 after consumption, reduces hunger increase rate by 10%, increases thirst by 5%.

Additional Attributes: Your Constitution is temporarily increased by 1 point, movement speed is reduced by 5%, lasts for one hour. This effect is not stackable.

Note: The additional attributes cannot be activated temporarily without being a Classed individual as a Gourmet Hunter.

Sharing Effect: When you share an Excellent or higher-grade Smoked Meat Pancake with others, your Charisma is temporarily increased by 1 point. This attribute can stack with the Quirky Chef effect and when tasting other dishes, disappearing after 3 days.

All attributes are ineffective for those who dislike meat. Forced feeding results in Charisma -2, lasting for 3 days.

Magical creature ingredients can be used to enhance attributes.

Looking at this information, Du Pont had a hint of doubt.

System, did the things I made after gaining insight into this class have attributes, or does the food itself have attributes?

[Food itself has base attributes. The user can trigger additional attributes and sharing effects after gaining insight into the Gourmet Hunter.]

[Additional attributes cannot be triggered currently. Sharing effect is triggered normally.]

[Unlocking more recipes grants Gourmet Hunter exclusive experience, which can be used to increase the Gourmet Hunter level.]

[Exclusive experience cannot be used to level up other classes.]

Du Pont was still silent, but the others had no idea that Du Pont had obtained so much information. The butcher joked, "Judy, what kind of bad idea did you come up with? How much money can you make opening a tavern? Even if you become famous and cook for the Royal Capital, how many gold coins can you earn? Even a legendary chef cooking for those noble 'fathers' probably only gets a salary of 1000 gold coins a month, right? Not to mention how much effort it takes to get to that point, just the stipend for becoming a High-level Mage is more than that, not to mention the adventure income from raiding a wealthy Dungeon. There's no comparison at all."

Judy was deflated when he heard this.

Legendary chefs were much fewer than High-level Mages, but their income was far less.

Although chefs could gain a certain status after getting acquainted with some high-ranking people, the respect and treatment they received were completely different from those of true High-level Classed individuals.

It could be said that they were completely outclassed, but who told chefs to be a no-threshold class that ordinary people like militiamen, hunters, and farmers could also Classed individual as?

At this time, Du Pont came back to his senses and laughed, "Talking about the future is too far away, but my love for food won't diminish. When I'm tired of learning spells, I'll just make some small dishes and eat with my friends, chat and brag. As for the rest, it's all too far-fetched."

Judy nodded when he heard this. The Halfling's free and easy personality quickly threw the previous unhappiness to the back of his mind. "That's right, enjoying food is a happy thing in itself. Why bother thinking so much? An outstanding mage becoming a chef is a complete waste of talent. If you really encounter danger, even just a formal mage can bring a sense of security that a chef can't match."

"It's just a different division of labor. Food can also make people happy and forget those troubles." Du Pont said, looking at the big pot, "The pig liver cooks faster. I'll go scoop it out."

Pig liver naturally didn't have the aroma of meat, but when cooked properly, it had a unique taste and a dense texture, making it a suitable refreshing side dish, which quickly received unanimous praise from the two.

Pig heart and pig stomach were naturally also delicious, which made the two hesitate slightly in front of the amber-colored large intestine, but they still bravely tried it, quickly getting two thumbs up.

"Although this large intestine looks ugly and disgusting, it's truly beautiful and extraordinary in the mouth, with a chewy exterior, a glutinous interior, and a unique fragrance." Judy exclaimed, glancing at the butcher who was just gobbling it down without a word, and shook his head, "It's a pity that Lavoisier's aristocratic sickness is a bit too serious. I'm afraid he can't stand this kind of delicious but unsightly thing, ultimately missing out on a treat."

Du Pont blinked when he heard this. "Lavoisier is?"

Hearing this, the two looked at Du Pont as if he were a monster. Judy wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth. "You don't know who Lavoisier is?"

Du Pont shook his head. "I usually just take classes here and don't even go out the door. How would I know who he is?"

The butcher chuckled. If he hadn't heard that the kid's heartbeat was normal, he would have thought this guy was pretending to be stupid. Now it seemed he was really a bit lacking in the brain department. "You little guy is really strange. Even if you haven't heard of Haluar's most outstanding male mage in the last hundred years, it's strange that you don't recognize your own Dean."

Du Pont couldn't help but cover his face when he heard this. He had indeed asked a stupid question. "Ah? You're talking about the Dean? I fell recently and my memory isn't very good. I couldn't remember for a moment..."

The other two didn't take it seriously, only thinking that this guy had a bad memory and was trying to save face. They quickly skipped over this topic. Judy asked, "By the way, what are you doing this courage training for? Are you tired of staying in the academy and planning to go out and find excitement early?"

"That's right." Du Pont generously admitted, "This world is full of treasures. Maybe I'll dig out treasures left over from ancient times in some unknown corner. Then I won't be a mage anymore and just hire some adventurers to try to become a noble lord, marry a rich and beautiful woman, and reach the peak of my life. Then all the Bards in the taverns of Faerûn will sing my deeds, and my name will be on a separate page in the chronicles. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

The two burst out laughing when they heard this. The butcher wiped the ale from his beard. "With your strength, you're going to dig up ancient treasures? Treasures of that scale will at least have Iron Golems as guardians. With your small body, you'll be smashed into meat paste with one punch. It would be good enough if you could clean up the Goblin Lair's scrap metal."

Du Pont smiled when he heard this. "Of course I understand what you're saying, but you have to have dreams, otherwise, when I graduate, I'll honestly become a mage playing with mud and skeletons, running around everywhere to live for a salary. Just thinking about that kind of life is boring."

"Then you may be a little disappointed. At least there won't be any large Dungeons within 300 miles around here, because when this academy was established, Lavoisier took his Golem Legion and leveled the monster gathering places around here. At that time, it could be said that they dug three feet into the ground."

The Barbarian showed a nostalgic look on his face as he spoke. "Now there are some small gathering places around here, but they are basically just small pests that even High-level adventurers are too lazy to look at. These are still suitable for you."
