Chapter 1 Naoki

 He opened his eyes.

 It’s quiet all around.

 The pendulum of an old-fashioned pendulum clock hanging on the wall swings silently.

Zhi Shu suddenly sat up from the bed, his chest heaving up and down, and he was breathing heavily.

What is this place?

Zhishu subconsciously looked around, his heart full of 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 hiking backpack casually placed on it.

There is a yellowed calendar hanging on the wall next to it, which looks to be old. On the other side of the room is a wooden cabinet. On the stove next to the cabinet are piles of things similar to coal stoves, as well as soup pots and iron pots. Kitchenware.

 Looking at this unfamiliar scene, Naoki became even more confused.

what happened?

Shouldn’t he be working overtime at the company now? Why does it appear 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.

 Through time travel?

 After a brief moment 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 completely different world 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’s actually 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 in both games and anime.

 When I was young, I also longed for a life in this world.

As we all know, this place is famous for being relaxed and laid-back. As long as humans are ten years old or above, they can receive starter Pokémon and travel with them around the world.

Since 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 the mortgage and car loans, and no longer have to be a useless social animal, Zhi Shu felt excited 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. His hometown was the Padia region. When he was young, he moved with his parents to live in the Hoenn region.

Shortly after that, both of the original parents died of illness—and they went to the Hoenn region just to recuperate.

 After the death of his parents, I sold my real estate and wandered around for many years as if I had seen through the world of mortals.

Finally, at the age of twenty, he chose to return to his hometown of Padia, the pasture left by his grandfather who died early, and ended his life here.

Although this is the world of Pokémon, the original owner has never conquered Pokémon because he doesn’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.

                        …

His empty stomach made a cry of protest, and Naoki glanced at the time.

  2:00AM

 At two o'clock in the morning, judging from the current situation, the original owner did 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 It burned.

While waiting for the water to boil, Zhi Shu searched around and found nothing else edible except 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 the pasture’s prosperity still lingers in my mind.

At that time, the pasture was lively and prosperous. Various crops grew in the neat fields, and the branches of the fruit trees were also covered with heavy fruits.

There are 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.

Three bees will collect nectar from outside and send it to the hive to brew honey. Every few days, they can harvest jars of crystal clear, sweet, 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…

Zhi Shu felt that this thing was somewhat familiar for some reason.

 When the ramen noodles are put into the water, as the water boils, the originally hard noodles quickly soften.

 Zhi Shu put the seasoning into it.

 He cannot 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. Over time, he learned to cook.

 Soon, the ramen was 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 might like it. Comment: Although it’s bad, it’s not enough to make Pokémon faint after eating it. ]

 Zhi Shu’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 **** 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 the cooking made by the player. Like most junk games, the level of cooking there ranges from F- all the way to SSS.

 The level of cooking 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 it is an even worse F-, it will even bring debuffs to the villains in the game, reducing their attributes and causing them to die suddenly when fighting enemies...

"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?"

Zhi Shu looked at the word Pokémon in the description above, picked up the bowl, and ate the noodles.

 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.

Zhi Shu endured eating while continuing to study the situation of Golden Finger.

In other words, the food he is making now can bring various magical abilities and benefits to the Pokémon that eat it.

perhaps?
