Background / History

Oscar was born in a remote mountain village that Martial Soul Hall personnel did not visit for Martial Soul awakenings. Wanting to avoid a farmer's life and see the wider world, he left with money provided by his father. By his teens, he still had not awakened his Martial Soul and was working as a waiter at Suotuo City's True Bull Restaurant. 49

Chen Huang recognized his potential and offered him a position at Little Grass Desserts, including a promised Martial Soul awakening. Oscar accepted and became the Suotuo branch's first employee. During the arranged awakening ceremony, he manifested a thick, short roasted sausage and displayed Innate Full Soul Power. Chen Huang immediately warned him to keep that talent secret because it could attract traffickers and nobles seeking high-quality offspring. 50 51

While working at the new branch, Oscar studied Soul Master basics, cultivation, and Martial Soul control. His sausages were added to the shop's menu, with Oscar retaining half of their sales income. Chen Huang identified his best future role as a logistics-oriented support Soul Master and nutritionist rather than a front-line fighter. 53 54 55

After building a basic foundation, Oscar entered the Star Dou Great Forest for his first Soul Ring. Although hesitant to kill the Fruit Fox himself, he did so and obtained Aromatic Fruit Sausage, beginning his path as a proper Soul Master. 61 62

He later received an Immortal Herb, reached level 20, and obtained a Crocodile Turtle Soul Ring. His good fortune in finding the rare, highly nutritious Soul Beast led Chen Huang to call him a “Lucky Star.” 119

Dugu Bo, Tang Hao, and Chen Huang arranged a staged robbery so Dugu Yan could “rescue” Oscar and meet him. Oscar subsequently pursued Dugu Yan; his cooking and growing confidence helped their relationship develop rapidly. 116 120 122 145 167

After gaining Flying Mushroom Sausage from a Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, Oscar continued developing his culinary talents. He later traveled to the Food Wars world with Dugu Yan, trained at Food Forest Temple, and completed Food Philosophy training under Yi Xiu Nuo and Zhen Zhenzhen. 183 346 361 362

Appearance

Oscar is a slender, handsome young man with delicate skin, neatly trimmed short hair, and distinctive peach blossom eyes. When first introduced, he wore a simple gray waiter's outfit. 49

• Slender build; later described as looking less sturdy than when he first arrived in Suotuo City. 61 239
• Soft, delicate voice. 49
• Charming eyes that can make him resemble a pampered noble young master when dressed up. 239

Personality

Oscar is earnest and ambitious despite his late start. He leaves his village to pursue life as a Soul Master, accepts Chen Huang's offer without hesitation, and ultimately kills the Fruit Fox despite struggling with the necessity of it. 49 51 61

He is easily embarrassed, especially by his Soul Skill incantations, and can be timid when faced with direct danger. He envies front-line Soul Masters' ability to carry a team, though he accepts the reality that he is primarily a support-type combatant. 57 62 64

His diligence is inconsistent: he has poor stamina during long hunts and later neglects physical training in favor of studying recipes. However, he is genuinely enthusiastic about food, rare ingredients, and improving his cooking. 167 179 239 350

Abilities & Skills

Sausage Martial Soul

Oscar possesses a Food System Martial Soul that manifests as thick, short roasted sausages. His Innate Full Soul Power gives him exceptional potential for an auxiliary Soul Master. 51

• Produces edible sausages with strong flavor and nutritional value. 53
• His Martial Soul changed his tastes: after awakening, he developed a clear preference for meat over sweets. 53
• Chen Huang considers his meat-based Food System Martial Soul especially valuable for military logistics, student training, and nutritional support. 53 55
• His physical condition was initially poor due to beginning cultivation at fourteen rather than in childhood. 51 61

Aromatic Fruit Sausage

Oscar's First Soul Skill comes from a Fruit Fox Soul Ring. 62

• Effect: Increases the consumer's strength by 10%. 62
• Incantation: “Old man has a fruit sausage!” 62
• The sausage carries a fruity flavor associated with the Fruit Fox and provides nutritional value alongside its enhancement effect. 62

Crocodile Turtle Sausage

Oscar's Second Soul Skill originates from a rare Crocodile Turtle Soul Ring. 119

• Effect: Raises the consumer's attack power and defense by 10% each. 119
• The skill is associated with the phrase “My Sausages Are Hard!” 119
• At the time of gaining this skill, exhausting his Soul Power allowed him to make only around ten to twenty sausages. 119

Flying Mushroom Sausage

Oscar's Third Soul Skill comes from a Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent. 183

• Effect: Gives the user Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent wings and its flight speed for one minute. 183
• Can grant temporary flight to multiple allies if prepared beforehand. 183
• Chen Huang identifies its potential for surprise aerial assaults, particularly when supplied to powerful long-range Soul Masters. 183

Culinary Skill and Food Philosophy

Oscar develops from a sausage-maker into a serious culinary student. His cooking helps him bond with Dugu Yan and earns praise from Xiao Fugui. 167 348

• Learns to process difficult ingredients, including Pufferfish Whales; after two failed attempts, he successfully removes a poison sac by carefully controlling his strength. 357
• His sausages are nutritious enough to stimulate Xiao Fugui's Gourmet Cells and are compared favorably to many ingredients in the Food Wars world. 348
• Completes Food Philosophy training at Food Forest Temple; his basic culinary techniques become second nature. 361 362
• His Martial Soul's sausage scent prevents him from eating Soap Bubble Fruit, which rejects the scent of other ingredients. 362

Antarctic Ice Humpback Whale Soul Spirit

Chen Huang selects a roughly 50,000-year Antarctic Ice Humpback Whale Soul Spirit for Oscar because it consumes large quantities of fish and shrimp and possesses rich nutritional reserves. 345

• Oscar accepts the Soul Spirit after initial reluctance. 345
• Successfully fuses with it and gains a new Soul Ring and Soul Skill, though the skill is not named. 346
