#410 - Can you get stronger just by eating?

"How long have you known me? Let me tell you, you can't judge a book by its cover. Who says someone who looks thin and tall is necessarily weak?"

Hearing Feng Qi's words, Seiya picked up a piece of grilled meat and started eating it while rolling his eyes and complaining.

"But aren't you a chef? And according to Yukihira Soma, you all learned to cook from your parents since you were little. So why are you so skilled in combat?"

"Could it be that besides cooking, your mother also taught you powerful kung fu... That's right, you come from a mysterious Eastern country, that must be it!"

Looking at Feng Qi in front of him, who seemed to be imagining something again, with an excited expression on her face, Seiya was too lazy to complain.

Who says chefs can't be strong? Are people not allowed to have a side job?

"Seiya, how did you practice martial arts when you were little? Was it like in TV shows, hitting wooden stakes like this and that?

"And is your family's martial art also not allowed to be passed on to outsiders? If possible, could you teach me a move or two, so that when I go to the Gourmet World with you, I won't be a complete burden."

Even though she was eating grilled meat, after eating a few skewers of elephant bear meat, Feng Qi's flushed expression was as if she was drunk, seeming unusually excited.

And looking at Feng Qi, who was in a different state than her usual "drugging" state, Seiya originally didn't want to pay attention to her.

But when he saw Feng Qi waving her fists like she was demonstrating martial arts, and directly smashing a piece of gravel on the ground into powder, both Seiya and Feng Qi were dumbfounded.

Feng Qi: "(▽｀) Seiya, what's going on?"

Seiya: "(_; I was just about to ask you what's going on! Didn't you say you were a combat power of five trash before?

Could it be... do you also have a side job?"

Feng Qi, who was previously intoxicated by the delicious food, looked at the shattered stone in front of her, and her face showed a dull expression.

She didn't have any side job. After coming to the city from the countryside, she had always been a diligent white-collar worker.

Because she used to do farm work in the countryside and had been a hardworking worker at the bottom of the company for a long time, she was indeed much stronger than ordinary people in terms of physical strength.

But smashing a rock with one punch, and her hand was only red, Feng Qi had never thought she could do such a thing.

Could it be... did she really awaken some powerful martial art or superpower like in TV dramas?

Compared to Feng Qi, who was a brain-imagining monster, Seiya was much more sober. Feng Qi was a combat power of five trash, Seiya, who had lived with her for several months, could confirm this.

But Feng Qi had just shown amazing strength far beyond ordinary people.

Until just now, Feng Qi was normal, until she ate the grilled elephant bear meat...

Looking at the tempting grilled elephant bear meat in his hand, Seiya also closed his eyes and carefully felt the changes in his body after taking a bite.

And after a moment, he quickly opened his eyes in surprise.

Because he was surprised to find that after eating the grilled elephant bear meat, his body strength had actually increased slightly!

Of course, the so-called slight increase was for Seiya, because his foundation was too strong, so he couldn't feel such an increase when he ate the grilled elephant bear meat before.

However, for ordinary people, the slight increase for Seiya was quite exaggerated.

Just like Feng Qi, who was just an ordinary office lady before, after eating a few skewers of grilled elephant bear meat, she could now even break rocks with her bare hands!

In order to further confirm his inner thoughts, Seiya looked at Feng Qi in front of him and asked, "Feng Qi, did you have any special feeling after eating the grilled elephant bear meat?"

Facing Seiya's question, Feng Qi was stunned for a moment and then said, "Special feeling? It just feels like my body is hot, as if I have endless power, does that count?"

"Damn, why didn't you say so just now?"

Hearing Feng Qi's answer, Seiya had basically confirmed that the reason why Feng Qi could break rocks with her bare hands was the elephant bear meat.

"Otherwise? Did you really think you were the chosen one, suddenly awakening superpowers or abilities?"

Looking at Seiya's annoyed expression, Feng Qi glanced at the skewer of grilled meat in her hand and asked suspiciously, "But I don't feel much difference from the dishes you usually make..."

"But since eating this meat can make me stronger, doesn't that mean that as long as I keep eating, I can keep getting stronger?"

After confirming that she could become stronger just by eating meat, without any hard training, Feng Qi became even more excited.

She originally liked to eat, and now she can eat delicious food and increase her strength. There is such a happy thing in this world.

After eating the skewer in her hand in one bite, Feng Qi unceremoniously reached out and snatched the skewer in Seiya's hand and said, "Since this grilled meat skewer doesn't have much effect on you, then in order to maximize its value, I, this lady, will help you deal with it."

The latest novel is first published on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!

Two catties of elephant bear meat, Seiya only ate about half a catty, and almost all the rest went into Feng Qi's stomach.

With a satisfied expression, Feng Qi, feeling like she had endless power all over her body, walked to a small tree with extreme confidence, trying to break the tree with one punch.

"It's about what I thought. Although this elephant bear meat can increase the strength of the eater to a certain extent, the increase should also be limited."

"Otherwise, if you keep eating, your strength will keep getting stronger, wouldn't humans be invincible long ago?"

"And not only is the increase in strength limited, but I can also feel that the feeling of power filling my body when I first ate the meat is gradually fading with the passage of time."

"In other words, you probably can't even break rocks with your bare hands like you did just now."

"But one thing is certain, that is, this elephant bear meat does subtly improve your strength attribute to a certain extent."

Hearing Seiya's words, Feng Qi, who was blowing on her red and swollen fist, turned her head and glared at Seiya and said, "Damn it, since you knew this would happen, why didn't you remind me just now, and let me hammer the big tree like an idiot!"

"Because my thoughts just now were just speculation. Wasn't it because I saw you looking so confident that I just let you verify my thoughts."

"Come, here is a stone about the same size as just now, you can see if you can smash it."

Feng Qi: "(ToT)/~~~ Get lost!"
