"Gulp."
When Geno put down the manuscript in his hand, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
As a senior food editor who had been in the industry for 30 years, he hadn't been moved by words describing delicacies for a long time.
But today, after reading Derrick's article, a strong desire arose in him. He wanted to taste the eggplant with garlic sauce himself and see if it was really as delicious and tempting as Derrick had described.
Even a table full of sumptuous meat dishes was not worth mentioning in front of the eggplant with garlic sauce.
"These are words with soul, a real food review article," Geno praised. Geno praised before grabbing a handful of his hair in frustration. "Why didn't I discover such a good article earlier?! If I had discovered it earlier and carried out the publicity in advance, the sales might have increased by a lot. "
"Isn't that so? The first printing of 'Vegetarianism' was only 5,000 copies, and it gradually became popular because of word of mouth from the readers. There was almost no publicity at all. This is simply a miracle in the history of magazines," the young editor said with a nod.
Geno closed the manuscript in his hand, and said with a determined gaze, "Since our own printing company can't keep up with the progress, then find another two printing companies to start work at the same time and print this issue of 'Vegetarianism.' We have to continue the miracle of this food magazine and let the entire industry see hope."
"Alright," the young editor replied. He placed the report on the table and left the office quickly.
"Derrick and this Mamy's are simply HAL's saviors. After I'm done here, I have to thank them personally," Geno said with a smile. He picked up the report on the table and looked at it seriously for a while. Then, he took the report and a folder and left the chief editor's office quickly.
…
Rodu, the palace.
A resplendent palace. The pink and gold colors were almost proportional, making the entire palace look very pink and adorable.
A young girl dressed in luxurious clothes was lying on the bed, reading the latest issue of "Vegetarianism" with great interest.
After a long time, she put down the magazine in her hand. Hearing her stomach growling, a pained expression appeared on her exquisite face. She turned over and pressed the magazine against her stomach. With a look of despair, she said, "Oh my god! Why did you make me read this in the middle of the night! It's already the 36th time, but why am I still so hungry after watching it?! "
"Princess Vanessa, it's time for you to go to bed." The young maid standing beside the bed said with a smile.
Princess Vanessa sat up on the bed and looked at the maid with a worried expression. "Lora, I want to eat something.
"The queen has instructed that you cannot eat anything before you sleep." Lora looked at the princess who was lying on the bed and shook her head helplessly.
"Can I just have one piece of candy? Just a small piece, just a small piece will do. "Vanessa stretched out her little finger.
"The queen said that you can't eat sweets until your teeth are healed." Lora shook her head. She looked at the black hole in Princess Vanessa's teeth and felt her heart ache.
Princess Vanessa was the king's only daughter. She had inherited the queen's beauty and was already a little beauty at the age of 16.
However, her teeth had a lot of decay and decay because she often ate sweets before she slept. It was fine if she didn't show her teeth, but when she smiled, her mouth was full of rotten teeth like that of a seventy or eighty year old woman, completely ruining her temperament.
Magic casters had a way to repair her teeth, but the treatment was too long. Furthermore, Princess Vanessa often ate sweets, so the treatment was very mediocre.
Because of this, Princess Vanessa didn't attend any public gatherings since she was 14 years old. She locked herself in her bedroom every day. Occasionally, she would go to the manor in the suburbs for vacation, but only had one maid, Lora, to serve her.
Over the years, her greatest interest was reading all kinds of gourmet magazines. The king doted on her, and as long as she wanted to eat something, he would invite a chef to the palace to cook it for her.
The queen had already given Lora an order. She had to keep an eye on the princess and stop her from eating sweets. Otherwise, she would be severely punished.
Vanessa stared at Lora for a while before lying back on the bed. She knew about the queen's order. She couldn't bear to see Lora being punished because of her.
"Lora, do you think that eggplant with garlic sauce is really that delicious? I've been dreaming about it for the past few days. I really want to go to Chaos City to try it for myself. " Vanessa lay on the bed, and looked at the ceiling that was inlaid with luminous pearls that emitted soft light.
"It must be very delicious if it can make the princess miss it so much." Lora smiled, and said, "I heard that Mr. Meg won the title of the best chef during the king's birthday celebration. Every dish he made was highly praised by the king."
"Ahhh …"
"I regret it so much!"
"Why did I go to the suburbs for a vacation those few days! I feel like I missed out on a delicious feast!!! "
Vanessa kicked her legs with a despondent look on her face.
Lora covered her with the blanket carefully, and smilingly said, "If the princess really wants to eat it, you just have to tell His Majesty, and he will definitely invite Mr. Meg over from Rodu to make you a delicious eggplant with garlic sauce."
"Really?!" Vanessa's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on her face. "Alright, then I'll go look for His Majesty tomorrow, and ask him to invite Mr. Meg to the palace."
…
Meg finally coaxed the two little ones to sleep. He tiptoed out of the room, and walked to the balcony.
He had a bountiful trip to the sea today. Not only did he obtain an army, but he also obtained a strength point as a reward.
The opportunity to break through to the 8th-tier was right in front of him. Meg was obviously not someone who could keep his cool.
He went to the balcony, and closed the door carefully. After that, Meg took off his bathrobe and put it aside. He walked to the center of the balcony, and heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he opened his arms, and said in his heart, "System, I'm ready. We can begin."
"Boom!"
An explosion suddenly erupted in the sky. Eight bolts of lightning twisted together to form a lightning pillar, and fell on Meg's head.
The lightning illuminated the balcony, and Meg, who was only wearing a pair of shorts, was bathed in the lightning. His muscles and bones seemed to have become transparent, and were being torn apart and reconstructed in a frenzy under the lightning.
Three minutes later, the lightning finally dissipated.
Meg, who felt as if a century had passed, suddenly opened his eyes. He clenched his fists, and could feel a special internal force flowing through his body. He could easily control it with his mind.
"Is this what it feels like to break through to the 8th-tier?" A smile appeared on Meg's face. It was a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling.
