Three Meals of a Reincarnator - Chapter 289
Chapter 289: Chapter 289
‘He’s not… trying to eat my bread, is he?’
‘He’s a dragon.’
While Min Sung watched him with caution, Repone opened his mouth.
His head, which was much bigger than his body, then charged toward the bread.
Min Sung jolted his eyes wide open and grabbed Repone’s mouth with his hand.
In response, Repone wriggled in shock, and meanwhile, Min Sung slowly got up from the table and looked back at Ho Sung Lee.
“Ho Sung, make something he can eat, so he won’t go after my bread,” commanded Min Sung in a bleak voice.
“Y-yes, Sir.”
Ho Sung Lee immediately went to open the fridge.
While Ho Sung Lee panicked and wondered what to feed Repone.
“He seems to eat anything, so don’t make anything and bring whatever you can find,” Min Sung instructed.
“Yes, Sir!”
Ho Sung Lee hurriedly looked for something to feed Repone.
Meanwhile, Repone stared at the bread with flaming eyes and flapped its wings as if it wasn’t going to give up.
Min Sung knitted his brows at Repone.
‘Did he lose his intelligence when he became a baby?’
‘What kind of dragon likes bread?’
While Min Sung questioned such things, the system notified him of the situation.
[Repone will be in the adjustment period for 1 year after initialization.]
[Caution: His intelligence is low while his tendency to attack is high.]
“Fwoosh! Fwoosh!
Fire breathed out of Repone’s mouth.
And Repone’s strength was so impressive that his arm, which was holding onto his mouth, was throbbing as a result.
Min Sung stared at Ho Sung Lee.
Right as he was about to say something.
“First…!”
Ho Sung Lee put the bread aside and placed a salad on the table.
But that only made Repone angrier.
Repone flapped his wings more vigorously. It seemed like lasers were about to shot out of his eyes, and intense energy radiated from his sturdy body.
Ho Sung Lee, who immediately sensed danger from his behavior, immediately took out a steak from the fridge and threw it in front of Repone.
The steak plopped down right in front of Repone.
And when Min Sung saw Repone flapping his wings in an offensive manner at the steak, he immediately let go.
Repone flapped his wings in the same place before landing on the table and putting the steak in his mouth.
And then…
Munch! Om nom!
Gulp!
Repone finished the steak in one bite and licked his lips.
Surprisingly, Repone was no longer violent once he had his meal.
Upon calming down again, Repone settled down on the table and fell asleep.
It was only for a short moment, but Ho Sung Lee was so tense from the situation that he huffed and puffed and dripped in sweat as he watched Repone sleep.
“…”
“If I was a little late, that could have been really dangerous.”
Min Sung nodded in response.
“He’s going to lack intelligence for 1 year because of his adjustment period. Make sure to feed him well.”
“Oh my god… I have to feed a dragon now, too?”
Ho Sung Lee grabbed his hair and dropped his shoulders out of defeat.
Min Sung ignored him and ate his pizza bread.
The taste of the sweet ketchup and the crispy vegetables. Also, the bread and sausages that were being chewed in between his teeth tasted delicious.
It was different from a regular pan of pizza.
Min Sung, who escaped the danger of Repone, enjoyed his pizza bread in peace.
Meanwhile, Sia Jang still thought Repone was cute while Woong Jang stared at Repone with caution now that he was afraid.
“Sia, don’t get too close…”
Woong Jang tried to talk her out of it, but there was no use.
“It’s scary but so cute!”
Sia Jang twisted her hands together and wriggled while looking at Repone.
She was in love with Repone, but it was Ho Sung Lee who had to make sure to feed him his meals.
As for Chef Jang, he was afraid of Repone.
And While Min Sung focused on his bread, Bowl came out of his pocket and watched Repone with Ssol.
At a table filled with family, Min Sung quietly moved on to his next bread.
It was a relatively peaceful life for them after a slight disturbance.
“Milk,” said Min Sung.
In response, Ho Sung Lee immediately fetched him a glass of milk.
Min Sung finished all of the bread that he had bought and gulped down his refreshing milk.
As much as Min Sung waited for his bread, it tasted spectacular.

“Damn it!”
“Why aren’t they fighting?”
“… I didn’t know he was so weak-willed.”
“That dragon surrendered to a mere human…!”
The Dionysus Gods trembled with rage after realizing that Repone, who was actually a red dragon and a ranker of Beatrice, agreed to become Min Sung’s subordinate.
And it wasn’t any old rage.
The Dionysus Gods were about to lose their minds.
They had sent Repone over to the human world in order to catch player Min Sung Kang.
But the red dragon became Min Sung Kang’s subordinate, meaning rather than killing him, he was going to help him.
As a result of the unexpected turn of events, the gods had to come up with another plan.
“We can’t just back down. We have to decide who to send next!”
One Dionysus God shouted while the other gods also agreed.
Of course, the owner of the Demonic Realm, Veld, was still unable to say anything.
While the Dionysus Gods raised their voices, the atmosphere became rougher.
“But the rankers that are left are not interested in our proposal, and they’re not even the type to be convinced.”
“Then do we just give up?”
The Dionysus Gods continued their discussion.
And then few of the gods stepped up to mediate the discussion, followed by a still silence.
The uncomfortable moment lasted quite a while.
Time passed, but they hadn’t come up with a plan.
Since they felt angry yet couldn’t find a way to solve the problem, the Dionysus Gods were on the verge of going crazy.
Repone was a dragon and one of the highest-ranking players in Beatrice.
So they believed that they could get revenge against Min Sung Kang through Repone, but that was nothing but false hope.
And the bigger problem was that they didn’t have any other plan.
The Dionysus Gods groaned.
If they could, they all wanted to go down together and take care of Min Sung Kang once and for all.
But according to the law, it was illegal to get involved with the human world themselves, so they were in a sticky situation.
“I thought we caught a big one…”
The Dionysus God with blonde hair closed his eyes and mumbled to himself, and the other gods sympathized.
The human named Min Sung Kang was an unprecedented player.
When his rank increased like crazy after appearing out of nowhere like a comet, the Dionysus Gods believed that their investment in him was wise.
That was how much potential Min Sung Kang showed.
If Min Sung Kang had stayed in Beatrice and participated in the ranking war, no one was able to doubt that he would have taken 1st place.
Seeing how he managed to take Repone under his wing before fighting for real, he was a human that was in a turf of his own.
Min Sung Kang was human, but they couldn’t see him that way.
While the Dionysus Gods grumbled, the blonde god glanced at Veld and opened his eyes wide.
His face reminded him of something.
The blonde god slowly lifted his arm and pointed at Veld.
“The king of the Demonic Realm, Veld,” called the blonde god, and the other Dionysus Gods all glanced his way.
***
As soon as Veld noticed the Dionysus Gods looking his way, he stood in a respectful stance.
Since he possessed the weakest territory, he naturally had to show such an attitude.
In reality, Veld felt just as wronged as everybody else, but Veld thought differently inside.
When Min Sung Kang first cut down the Iris Tree, Veld lost all hope and felt like the world came to an end.
But once he came back to his senses, there was a small beam of hope.
And that had to do with a characteristic of the Demonic Realm.
The Demonic Realm was separate from Heaven, but that didn’t mean no exchanges could be made.
In addition, the Demonic Realm had the ability to have physical influence over the human world.
The Demonic Realm fed off of chaos.
Furthermore, since the owner of the Demonic Realm, Veld, wasn’t considered one of the major gods, he was able to participate in the human world.
That was a tempting trait for the Dionysus Gods. He could be used to their advantage.
“Our best alternative is to use Veld,” the blonde god said.
Veld was waiting for that topic to be raised.
For the Dionysus Gods to use him to bring Min Sung Kang down.
That was what he was waiting for.
Since there was a difference between the Demonic Realm and Heaven, there was no reason for Veld to be on this occasion.
He could have just hidden away, and the reason why he attended the uncomfortable gathering wasn’t because of his sense of responsibility, but it was to get revenge against Min Sung Kang.
This was his opportunity, and Veld’s plan was successful.
The Dionysus Gods of Heaven took his bait.
In order for the Dionysus Gods to use him, they had to give him power, and that was a once-in-a-life opportunity for Veld.
