Cooking Genius With God
Chapter 329
Yi Sun-geol named it "Pure" after "Pure" and "Pretty".
Be a pure and good person.
It''s a simple and good name, and now that I think about it, it''s a pretty tacky name.
Lee Soon-Gul was born that way.
I had a dream since I was young, and I ran out of the house for it and repeatedly came back, but I couldn''t come back at any point.
That was it.
When Soon-geol, who left the house, did not return after a long time, rumors circulated in the village.
Some of the people who used to swear at Soon-geol turned around and comforted her mother, but that was it.
Waiting for the pilgrimage, heating up the stove for the daughter who won''t come. That''s how the time went.
Despite the absence of Soongeol, guests continued to come and go to Hanyang''s inn, and alcohol and food collided.
Some guests told her mother that it would be better to hold a funeral at this point, but she was adamant.
A few more years later, no one was talking about Soongeol. It''s forgotten in the world.
And about 10 more years later. A very snowy dawn night.
"How long has it been...….”
The snowstorm was strong. There was a woman walking in front of a house full of snow.
He wore a black hat on his head and a black blanket on his body. Likewise, black and hollow eyes and lips.
She walked on the snow, but curiously, there were no footprints left. It''s not a person.
Drrrrrrrrrr, a shabby long door opened. The inn, which was full of guests, was already very old.
This is because he closed the door, losing the taste of his hands and becoming unable to cook.
She could have brought in her pupils or hired someone, but her mother didn''t.
That''s why it doesn''t taste like me, maybe it doesn''t seem meaningful.
That''s why she was able to come up to this place now.
The grim reaper fixed the blanket neatly.
In a small room, my mother, whose gray hair had completely leaked, lay quietly.
“…….”
The grim reaper paused for a moment.
The life and death in her hand is clearly over. It was written.
But we''re still a family. It was not as easy to reap as it has been so far.
After catching his breath several times, the grim reaper called his name three times in a trembling voice.
Breathe out the last breath, and the soul escapes. Then the grim reaper was able to face his mother again.
She was always confident, but now she lowered her head for some reason.
A voice came to the grim reaper who had committed a crime.
-Soon-geol."……Yes." - How was your trip? As I wanted, look at it a lot. Did you listen to it a lot?"Yes, mother."
Soon-geol''s mother saw her daughter appear as a grim reaper, but was not embarrassed at all.
As if he knew this would happen. As if he believed in it, he asked proudly.
That''s fine, you''re gone, and everyone else says you''re dead. The mother believed. I''ll be doing whatever I want. So where is my resentment.
So there was little limit to her mother.
The Grim Reaper didn''t even have to make the holy fire. Mother walked into the door on her own.
And before he disappeared, he looked at the grim reaper for the last time and said:
Open the fireplace. I steamed some sweet potatoes to see if you''re eating well, so take the salty food out of the jar and eat it together."How did you know?”
The grim reaper was genuinely surprised by the words.
I prepared sweet potatoes because I thought I would come.
This is because it was impossible without real credibility, apart from simply believing in purity.
Even that''s all.
Because of the law of the underworld, a man who becomes a grim reaper cannot come near his immediate family except when he goes to die.
The grim reaper could not come to see his mother even in the body of a ghost.
If my mother was possessed, she could see ghosts. However, this now is absolutely ridiculous.
……He was a grim reaper who was appalled at the thought, but his mother''s answer was concise and light.
"I kept steaming sweet potatoes because I didn''t know when they would come. Our daughter is here, so we shouldn''t be hungry.”
Is it just a coincidence? Or is it a small consideration of Yeom-ra who was watching from somewhere?
Right after the door opens, and the mother becomes holy.
The snow that poured like crazy from the sky shrank weakly like a lie.
The grim reaper who sent his mother became a human body at the same time.
I stood there for a while blankly in front of the fireplace, where there was no one to light it, and opened the pot.
The white seaweed melted the frozen cheeks, and there were some sweet potatoes in them.
That was the last food Soongeol had.
As all the people who remember him in the world disappeared, Sun-geol became a non-dead or alive being.
Soon after, I forgot my name and memory and became a grim reaper.
But now, hundreds of years later, it''s really not until there''s a lot of coincidences and delays.
* * *
"Turn it off..." "Eat slowly." I''m going to run out of breath. Drink some water. Quickly."
The face of the grim reaper, who was eating sweet potatoes in a hurry, turned pale.
He has a pale face, but his throat is completely clogged and turned purple.
When Haru hurriedly handed over a glass of cold water, the grim reaper shot his chest in one shot.
Then, he breathes out, saying that he will live a little longer.
"It''s delicious." "Is it that delicious?" It''s just a sweet potato chips.
"Is that what the person who knows best about not just sweet potatoes says? It''s the most delicious sweet potato in the world. It''s. It''s made by a day.….”
The food that triggered the Grim Reaper''s memory.
And the last key to reclaiming such lost memories.
They simply steamed sweet potatoes and served them with salty food.
It was really easy to find salty food in the market, and steaming sweet potatoes was something even a child could do.
But it was such a simple dish that I couldn''t eat it for a long time.
It was such an easy food that my mother could make, and it could also be the most delicious food in the life of the grim reaper.
Her soul food. The food that I met after crossing the street from rice soup was steamed sweet potatoes.
"I''m glad you look happy, though. Soongeol."
"That''s what you call it...…. Well, it''s all right. It''s my name that I struggled to find.”
The underworld is the grim reaper, no. I smiled playfully at the pure girl.
It was such a scary underworld, but now it''s like. Image wise, people. It felt a lot more flexible.
Now, you''ve found your memory. I think I''m almost done. Even the king of the underworld visited us.Choi Han-seok stepped out around the time the grim reaper almost finished eating sweet potatoes.
Choi Han-seok standing in front of Yeom-ra with a cool but confident expression.
It seems to be covering for the grim reaper.
In the past, as in Haru, Yeom-ra used to cringe, saying she was a little scared, but for some reason, she seemed confident in the world.
Like a man who has no shame in heaven. I asked Yeom-ra confidently.
- May I ask you now?
"What do you mean?" -Mr. Underworld…… our Soongeol. Is it okay to be a saint? Now
Direct hit. I didn''t beat around the bush, I didn''t add anything unnecessary.
Because he knew he wasn''t the one who could hide something.
Despite his heavy words, Yeom-ra''s expression remained unchanged. He asked in a flat voice.
"Why does Choi Han-seok ask that? Soongeol didn''t ask me to do it. - She asked me before.
"Please..."?-If you find your memory like this. And if there is the Lord of the Underworld in front of us. Maybe you''re too shy, scared, and sorry to say it properly. I want you to open the door.
"Oh, my. Is that Soon-geol? I can''t believe you know how to act so cute.”
Why? I think this is pretty cute.
Choi Hanseok who smiles. The grim reaper slapped him hard on the back, as if not to say anything strange.
Choi Han-seok was so strong that he was pushed forward a little and shouted out loud, but he still straightened his back and said.
-Anyway, yes. Let go of me.
He is not a grim reaper who will keep turning his head when others tell him his story.
She clenched her fist and stood up and shouted in front of the underworld.
"I know I owe you a lot. I was able to see, hear, and experience things that were not within my means."
"Sun-geol, do you really think so, too? Now you want to clean up everything, go back?”
A lot depends on this answer.
"I want to go back. If I answer, can I go back?"
The grim reaper told Choi Han-seok so.
Since the creation of the afterlife, there has never been a single case of the Grim Reaper.
So, of course, it''s impossible, everyone thought.
Also, it''s really unusual and special for the grim reaper to recognize his lost memory for the holy fire in the first place.
There are many different kinds of Grim Reaper in the world, and there are that many Grim Reaper.
Just as there are the underworld and the grim reaper in Korea and Hella and Ripper in the West.
That''s why you''re careful.
Even now, when things that have never been seen in the history of the underworld are happening like breathing.
"The day you saved me by mistake has saved you, who were already dead and forgotten. Yeah, it''s an ironic situation. It''s also something that hasn''t happened in history."
"……Yes, you''re right."
The nuance of the underworld that takes a step back. The grim reaper''s expression became a little vague. but
"But everything we do now is unprecedented. Crucially, the history of the underworld is not that long.”
It''s not long? I heard it''s the underworld that''s been going on since the Joseon Dynasty. But isn''t the history long?
"How old is the Earth? How long was a person born? How much time do you have to live in the future? Considering that, the time I reigned as king of the underworld is an instant."-Huh…I don''t know if I should think of this as a good thing.
"It does feel ridiculous. Like a chef."
Haru and Choi Han-seok smiled blankly.
But I didn''t care too much.No matter what the moment was, it was Haru, Hanseok Choi, and the grim reaper who lived in that moment.
"So let me give you an answer. Soon-geol is."
The underworld opened its mouth.
