When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

On the hot iron plate, some fat and tender octopus pieces made a "sizzling" sound as soon as they fell onto the plate, and the oil jumped in joy, instantly emitting a fresh and fragrant aroma.

Kitahara Akira quickly flipped the octopus over with a spatula. The octopus meat changed color rapidly under the influence of heat, from sparkling white to an attractive golden yellow.

While it’s still hot, fine cumin flutters down, like covering the octopus with a layer of fragrant clothing, followed by bright red chili powder to add a pinch of hotness, and finally it’s brushed with a secret sauce, which permeates with a rich, salty and fragrant flavor.

The hot air, carrying a strong and rich complex aroma, rushes straight into the nasal cavity, making the taste buds cheer and making people salivate just by smelling it.

"Try it?" Kitahara Akira hung two pieces of prepared octopus meat in front of Kato Megumi and Yukinoshita Yukino.

The two of them pushed the hair beside their cheeks behind their ears and bit into the octopus meat.

The next moment, the chewy and soft texture exploded between the two people's teeth, fresh and chewy.

The richness of the sauce and the burnt aroma of charcoal fire bloom on your taste buds one after another. Every chew is a wonderful collision of the sea and fireworks.

"Wow!" Kato Hui covered her mouth in surprise. "Delicious!"

"If Xiaojun stopped being a superpower and opened a shop selling grilled octopus, it would definitely be a big hit!"

Even though Yukinoshita Yukino has eaten countless delicacies from land and sea, she couldn't help but praise Kitahara Akira's secret octopus meat.

She looked at Kitahara Akira in a strange way. "I didn't expect that Kitahara-kun would be so capable."

"I was living alone before, so it's good to have many skills," Kitahara Akira shrugged.

The corners of Yukinoshita Yukino's mouth curved up. "But if those people saw a dignified natural disaster-level superpower making charcoal grilled octopus here, they would definitely be shocked."

"I don't really care," Kitahara Akira said nonchalantly, "As long as you and Hui like to eat it."

Seeing this, Universe Daba and Long Ritian, who were helping Kitahara Xiao not far away, felt ashamed.

This universe is a game for them, but it is the real universe for Kitahara Akatsuki and those NPCs.

Every natural disaster-level person can be said to be a genius, so naturally they are arrogant. But the outlier Kitahara Akatsuki is actually willing to be a chef and cook for them...

The two glanced at Kitahara Akatsuki and the other two who were talking and laughing.

Can we just say that this is the power of love?

As a veteran of the 2D world, Long Ritian is already envious to the point of being unrecognizable.

After finishing his meal, Kitahara Xiaogang handed the dishwashing job to two shadow soldiers, and then an emergency communication sounded through the communicator.

After the call was connected, Hilde's incredibly beautiful face appeared on the virtual screen.

"Hilde?" Kitahara Akira said in an unnatural tone, the scene of being almost kissed last time was still vivid in his mind. "What do you want from me?"

After hearing that it was Hilde calling, Kato Megumi and Yukinoshita Yukino, who had been relaxed, immediately turned their eyes over.

Hilde smiled and didn't care about the two women's defensive attitude.

"I have a commission that I think you might be interested in."

As he spoke, Hilde sent over the details of the commission.

Kitahara Xiao glanced at him, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. "The escort commission is to escort the target from the Ancient Star Desert to the Black Hole Boundary Star Region together with several Calamity-level mercenaries from other mercenaries..."

"That's right," Hilde nodded. "In addition to the most basic money, the reward also includes the advanced knowledge of supernatural powers that you are most interested in."

She glanced at Kato Megumi and Yukinoshita Yukino who were standing silently behind Kitahara Akatsuki, and said in a strange tone, "If I wasn't tied up right now, this commission wouldn't be yours."

"Who made me a busy legion commander? I have to consider the development of the legion~"

"...I feel like you are implying something about me" Kitahara Akira complained

"No, I'm just telling the truth~"

Looking at Hilde who suddenly changed into a green tea tone, Kitahara Akatsuki sighed silently.

"Okay, leave this commission to us."

After hanging up the phone with Hilde, Kitahara Akira thought for a moment, then turned to look at Kato Megumi and Yukinoshita Yukino.

"Megumi, Yukinoshita, would you like to go together?"

Kato Megumi took out her weapon and said, "Well, after all, we have been in the trial for so long."

"Of course." Yukinoshita Yukino combed her long hair into a high ponytail and tied it behind her head. "Megumi and I have been waiting for you."

The three of them have been in Xingyao Port for nearly two months. During these two months, Kitahara Xiao has been doing high-level commissions outside to build up his fame.

The two women used the complete set of advanced knowledge on supernatural powers and martial arts that they bought for several million dinars to study while fighting against Long Ritian and the other man to gain combat experience.

Now is the time to test your results!

"Wait!" Long Ritian suddenly called out to Beiyuan Xiao

As soon as Kitahara Xiao turned his head, he saw Long Ritian sliding on his knees and ignoring the friction, sliding in front of him.

"Take us with you, Boss!" His eyes were full of sincerity. "The escort commission will definitely take a long time. We can't let you and your sisters-in-law do everything on the spaceship. Daba and I can handle these trivial matters for you!"

Kitahara Xiao opened his mouth and was about to refuse, but suddenly stopped as if he thought of something.

"Okay, let's get on the spaceship later."

As soon as he finished speaking, a commissioned task suddenly popped up on Long Ritian and Yuzhou Daba's game panel. The experience reward was so generous that it could even equal a month's normal efforts of the two!

The two looked at each other and both smiled heartlessly.

.................................................. .........

Several people rode the Gray Gu Storm through the Civilian Star Cluster and arrived at the neighboring Miss Star Cluster, then jumped to a dark red desolate planet similar to Mars. A small fleet was staying above the planet.

After successfully completing identity verification and stepping into the fleet, Kitahara Xiao skillfully controlled the vehicle and parked it steadily in the large hangar.

After everything was ready, he first arranged his accommodation and other living matters one by one. Before he had time to catch his breath, he received an invitation to attend a meeting - a consultation meeting on the escort commission was waiting for him.

"Swish!" The door opened, and Kitahara Xiao slowly walked into a small secret meeting room. Four natural disaster-level superpowers had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this, Kitahara Akira said with some apology, "Sorry, I'm late."

"Finally here..." A man with a cloak and an unclear face couldn't help but say, "My spirituality has been somewhat eroded by time..."

"【Spiritual Master】please stop playing tricks. There has to be a limit to how much you can act pretentiously. You were chatting happily just now, but when you heard the last person coming, you started pretending all the time." A bald man with a naked upper body and blood-red magic runes tattooed all over his body couldn't help but complain.

The [Spiritual Master] twitched his lips, glanced at the bald [Fen Yan] with his deep purple eyes, then turned his head away and stopped looking at him.
