The pendulum of an old-fashioned pendulum clock hanging on the wall swings silently.
Naoki suddenly sat up from the bed, his chest heaving up and down, and he was breathing heavily.
What is this place?
Naoki subconsciously looked around, his heart filled with confusion and confusion.
This is a small cabin.
There is a single bed placed against the wall in the room. Opposite the bed is a log-colored desk, with a bulging mountaineering backpack casually placed on it.
There is a yellowed calendar hanging on the wall next to it, which looks old. On the other side of the room is a wooden cabinet. On the stove next to the cabinet are stacks of things similar to coal stoves, as well as soup pots and iron pots.
Kitchen utensils.
Looking at this unfamiliar scene, Naoki became even more confused.
What's going on?
Shouldn't he be working overtime at the company now? Why is he here?
"Hiss... my head hurts so much!"
Suddenly something appeared in his head, which made Naoki feel bloated.
A large number of memories came in like a flood. After digesting them, Naoki suddenly showed an expression of disbelief on his face.
Traveled through time?
After a brief period of shock, Naoki slowly understood the current situation.
He has indeed traveled through time.
Sudden death from fatigue caused by working overtime for five consecutive days traveled to this world.
This is a world completely different from the earth.
In addition to humans, there is another kind of creature called "Pokémon" living here. Whether in the sky, ocean, or land, they can be seen in every corner of the world.
"It turns out to be the world of Pokémon!" Naoki was a little surprised.
He can't be said to know much about Pokémon, but he has played and watched them all, whether they are games or anime.
When I was young, I also longed for the life in this world.
As we all know, this place is famous for being relaxed and laid-back. As long as humans are over ten years old, they can receive starter Pokémon and travel with them around the world.
Now that he has traveled through time, can he travel as he pleases like Ash in the anime?
When he thought that he could get rid of 996, get rid of housing and car loans, and no longer have to be a useless social animal, Zhi Shu felt a sudden change in his heart.
But soon, he calmed down again.
The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.
The name of the person he traveled through was also named Naoki, and his hometown was the Padia region. When he was young, he moved with his parents to the Hoenn region to live.
Shortly after that, both of the original parent's parents died of illness - and they went to the Fengyuan area just to recuperate.
After the death of his parents, he sold his real estate and wandered around for many years without any worries.
Finally, at the age of twenty, he chose to return to his hometown of Padea, the pasture left by his grandfather who died early, and ended his life here.
Although this is the world of Pokémon, the original person never conquered Pokémon because he didn’t want to worry about it.
With these memories appearing in his mind, Naoki felt a little sad, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Cuckoo..."
His empty stomach growled in protest, and Naoki glanced at the time.
2:00AM
It’s two o’clock in the morning. Judging from the current situation, the original owner does not seem to have had dinner.
Naoki sighed, apologized in his heart, then got out of bed, opened the original owner's backpack according to what he remembered, found a pack of ramen from it, filled a pot with some water, and put it on the coal stove
Burned.
While waiting for the water to boil, Zhi Shu looked around and found nothing else edible except for some basic seasonings.
Although this is a pasture, because it has been abandoned for many years, the fields in the pasture have long been occupied by weeds and rocks. Naturally, it is impossible to have any vegetables and fruits, let alone eggs.
The memory of when the ranch was prosperous still remains in my mind.
At that time, the pasture was lively and prosperous, with various crops growing in the neat fields, and the branches of the fruit trees were covered with heavy fruits.
The Pokémon house houses a group of large milk cans imported from the Johto region and braided sheep from the Galar region. There are rows of beehives on the grass outside the house.
The three bees will collect nectar from outside and send it to the hive to brew honey. Every few days, they can receive jars of crystal clear, sweet and mellow, golden and sticky honey.
At this time, the water boiled.
Just when Naoki opened the package of ramen and was about to put it into the water, a piece of information suddenly came to his mind.
[Instant ramen: a basic food with low quality and little nutrition. However, it is favored by many field workers and travelers because of its convenience in cooking. The effect is unknown.]
Huh? This is...
Naoki inexplicably felt that this thing was familiar.
When the ramen noodles are put into the water, as the water boils, the originally hard noodles quickly soften.
Naoki put the seasoning inside.
He can't be said to be proficient in cooking, he only knows a little bit.
Because he lives alone, he mostly prepares three meals a day by himself, because it saves money, and he learned to cook over time.
Soon, the ramen will be cooked.
Without thinking much, Naoki put it into a bowl and sat down at the desk to fill his stomach with it.
But at this moment, the familiar information appeared in his mind again.
[Cloth noodle soup with too much salt (D-): Low-level cuisine. Because excessive salt is added, it loses its original beneficial effect. It can only be used to satisfy the hunger. Eating too much will make you thirsty. If you like salty taste,
Pokémon may like it. Evaluation: Although it is bad, it will not make Pokémon faint after eating it.]
Naoki's brows jumped.
Good guy!
He finally remembered where this familiar feeling came from!
Isn’t this the cooking introduction interface in a game called [Cooking Master] developed by their game company?
That is a rubbish game used to defraud people in the name of delicious food.
The game is a development type, and the setting is that players have magical abilities.
The dishes they make can provide various attributes and buffs to the characters inside, as well as other weird and magical abilities.
The magnitude and quality of the gain are related to the level of cooking made by the player. Like most junk games, the level of cooking there ranges from F- to SSS.
The level of the cuisine is closely related to the rarity and quality of the ingredients, as well as the player's cooking skills.
D- can only be said to be average. If F- tastes worse, it will even bring debuffs to the villains in the game, reducing their attributes and causing them to die suddenly when fighting enemies...<
/p>
"What's going on?" Naoki was a little dazed, and couldn't help but think of the online novel he had read, "Could this be my golden finger?"
While Naoki looked at the words "Pokémon" in the description above, he picked up the bowl and ate the noodles.
As soon as the noodles enter your mouth, a salty taste immediately fills your entire mouth.
Naoki: "..."
Sure enough, there was too much salt.
Although I'm not used to it, this is the only food left in the house.
Naoki endured eating while continuing to study the situation of the golden finger.
In other words, the food he makes now can bring various magical abilities and benefits to the Pokémon that eat it.
