Gourmet Hunter

Order Description: Gourmet Hunter Toriko wants to taste some delicious dishes he's never eaten before.

Order Content: Delicious dishes cooked with unknown ingredients.

To be honest, this order is very simple to complete.

After all, they are two different worlds, so the ingredients naturally won't be exactly the same.

At least Abel is sure that making a dish with Sea King meat should satisfy the order's requirements.

But it's almost impossible to get a high-star rating this way.

And the more cruel reality is, there might not even be Sea King meat here.

Given his current situation, it's even more impossible for him to find any other precious ingredients.

This is quite awkward.

If he were to force some ordinary dish to get by, he might very well receive a one-star bad review for the first time.

So, after careful consideration, Abel finally decided to use the [Four-Star Good Review Card] he got from opening the beginner's gift package!

[Four-Star Good Review Card] (Limited Edition)

A one-time consumable item.

Effect: Use when submitting an order. The rating for this order will be fixed at a four-star good review.

Note: Only applicable to beginner Wish Orders.

Anyway, this item will be useless once he obtains intermediate Trading qualifications.

So, it's better to use it sooner to help him overcome the early difficulties.

After Baby-5 left, he submitted the roasted meat hidden in the quilt as the trade item and simultaneously used the [Four-Star Good Review Card].

[Confirming order item. Initiating transfer.]

[Beginner Wish Order completed. Customer gave a four-star rating (Unexpected Surprise)!]

[Comment: This is the first time I've eaten meat with this texture. It's absolutely delicious!]

[Four-star rating increases the base Trading Points reward by fifty percent. Remaining rewards have been automatically distributed. Please check.]

[Because the customer is very satisfied, you have received an additional reward - Gourmet Cells implantation (Claimable)]

Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!

Abel was shocked!

The extra reward was Gourmet Cells implantation?!

This time, his luck has truly exploded!

What he didn't expect even more was that the real surprise was yet to come.

[You have gained the recognition of Gourmet Hunter Toriko, who has issued you a special long-term Wish Order. Do you accept?]

Accept, I must accept!

Looking at the system prompt that popped up again, Abel chose to accept with almost no hesitation.

[Acquired a special long-term Wish Order.]

[Order Description: The delicious dishes you provided have greatly satisfied Toriko. He looks forward to you bringing him more surprises.]

[Order Content: Delicious dishes cooked with unknown ingredients.]

[Base Order Reward: Unknown, 300 Trading Points.]

[Order Remaining Time: Unlimited, repeatable.]

[PS: If you repeatedly provide unsatisfactory goods, this order may be canceled.]

"Hahahaha, awesome!"

A one-time Wish Order has suddenly become a repeatable long-term order, and each completion offers a substantial base reward. Is there anything happier than this?

Abel felt like his mouth was about to split from smiling.

This [Four-Star Good Review Card] is too useful. Not only did it help him get 450 Trading Points and a Century Soup for free, but it also allowed him to "milk" Toriko, the Gourmet Hunter, twice.

Otherwise, what level of cuisine would it take to get a four-star rating on this order?

Abel couldn't even imagine!

However, this also serves as a reminder. When he's not confident he can get at least a three-star rating or higher, it's best not to attempt this order lightly.

If he repeatedly fails and causes this long-term order to be canceled, he'll have nowhere to cry.

After all, there are many good things in Toriko's world, and he certainly wants to keep "milking" this cow for as long as possible.

"I wish I had a few more of these good review cards. I wonder if they'll appear in the shop later."

Abel smacked his lips, feeling a bit greedy.

However, he quickly reined in his emotions and prepared to claim the extra reward for this order.

[Gourmet Cells]

Consumable Item

Description: A special type of cell extracted from the Phantom Jellyfish.

Effect: Once implanted into the human body, it activates the body's cells, allowing for evolution after enjoying delicious food.

Side Effects: Requires a large amount of food to maintain cell activity. If food energy intake is insufficient for a long period, there's a chance of backlash.

Abel felt this was the most suitable item to help him get stronger at this stage.

All he had to do was eat.

Safe and painless.

He could even ignore the side effects.

After all, he had found a long-term source of food. Doflamingo wouldn't kick him out just because he ate a lot, right?

The only problem would be having to constantly search for delicious food that could evolve the Gourmet Cells within him, which was a bit troublesome.

But it wasn't a major issue. He still had his cheat!

If one world's food wasn't enough, he could go to two. If two weren't enough, he could go to three.

This enormous advantage was something even the Gourmet Hunter Toriko never had!

In summary, his future was bright.

"Claim extra reward."

[Extra reward claimed successfully. Gourmet Cells implantation commencing. Implantation successful.]

As expected of the system, Abel didn't feel anything, and the implantation was already successful. This kind of technology would make doctors worldwide ashamed enough to commit suicide.

It was way better than that mutated garbage ray from before.

However, he was celebrating too early.

Right after the successful implantation, the Gourmet Cells within him immediately began to work. The grilled meat he had eaten earlier was being digested at an unbelievable speed.

Yet, it still wasn't enough to satisfy them!

He needed to eat, to eat a lot!

This was the intense hunger from his stomach sending signals to his brain.

But it was too late to find food now, and Abel didn't want anyone to see his current state.

So, he immediately took out the reward he had just received from his system inventory—[Century Soup].

[Century Soup]

Consumable Item

Description: The soup dish from the life menu of the Gourmet Four Heavenly Kings, Toriko.

Effect: Upon first consumption, it will deeply repair and purify the human body. If Gourmet Cells are present, they will be greatly satisfied and evolve.

Side Effects: The drinker will be unable to control themselves and will develop a smiling face due to extreme satisfaction. Duration: 1 hour.

Immensely clear and transparent!

It was as if it were air soup; nothing could be seen in the bowl.

But the beautiful aurora formed above the bowl and the intoxicating aroma proved that the soup was indeed in the bowl.

PS: Thanks to book friend 161215195238850 for the 200-coin reward, and thanks to Teacher Ginpachi000 for the 100-coin reward.
