[You have achieved the feat of making the first spicy and refreshing freshwater shrimp soup in the tower.]

[The recipe for spicy and refreshing freshwater shrimp soup is registered under Cooking Lv. 6.]

[Your proficiency for Cooking Lv. 6 greatly increases.]

[Your proficiency for Cooking Lv. 6 is filled, and the level increases.]

An achievement message appeared as the shrimp soup made with the freshwater shrimp caught by Theo was completed.

“Hehehe. Nice.”

Furthermore, with the message that his cooking level had increased, Sejun smiled contentedly and took a spoonful of the shrimp soup to taste it.

Slurp.

“Ah, so refreshing.”

Sejun made a satisfied expression after tasting the shrimp soup. The flavor of the shrimp soup was spicy yet refreshing, and the more he chewed the shrimp, the more the savory taste came out. With this, the shrimp bait was completed.

“Guys, let’s have breakfast.”

Sejun called the animals.

Krueng?!

[Daddy, is this edible?!]

Cuengi looked at the shrimp in the shrimp soup Sejun was offering and asked. He had seen shrimps while picking balanidae, but he thought they were too small to eat.

“Yes. Give it a try.”

Krueng!

[Okay!]

Trusting Sejun’s words, Cuengi started eating the shrimp soup without doubt, and

Peng!

The penguins, who had already tasted it before, eagerly ate the shrimp soup with the freshwater shrimp.

“How is it? Delicious, right? If you guys catch shrimp, I’ll make another tasty dish with freshwater shrimp for lunch.”

This was the reason Sejun had worked hard to make shrimp soup since morning. He couldn’t see the hidden freshwater shrimp himself, so he was making animals catch the shrimp for him, using the shrimp soup as bait.

Krueng!

[Understood!]

Peng!

Cuengi and the penguins nodded enthusiastically at Sejun’s words.

“Now let’s eat too.”

Slurp.

Chomp chomp.

Gulp.

After successfully assigning the shrimp-catching task to the animals, Sejun fed Theo homemade churu and ate his shrimp soup.

While they were having breakfast,

“Huh?!”

Next to Sejun, Kona and the other penguins who were eating shrimp soup started to become transparent one by one and disappeared.

“Chairman Park, what’s wrong, meow?”

Theo stopped eating his churu and asked Sejun, who looked panicked.

“Vice Chairman Theo, suddenly Kona and the penguins… they disappeared…”

“What are you talking about, meow? Can’t you see Kona right here, meow?”

Theo looked next to him and said, seeing Kona still eating shrimp soup just fine.

“They’re still there?”

When Sejun cautiously reached out to where Kona was, his hand touched something in mid-air.

“Peng? Lord Sejun, what’s the matter?”

Kona, who had been engrossed in eating soup, asked Sejun.

“Is that you, Kona?”

“Yes.”

“I suddenly couldn’t see you.”

“You couldn’t see me?”

“Yes.”

Kona looked puzzled by Sejun’s words because Kona hadn’t done anything.

“Ah!”

Realization dawned on Sejun, and he hurriedly checked the soup’s options.
