Leveling Up through Eating-Chapter 11.1: Fullness System

Chapter 11.1

Translator: ChubbyCheeks

The reason why she had a misconception was because she wasn’t aware of the system’s current outbreak.

Besides, Minhyuk was exercising diligently. He kept on swinging his sword.

He only stopped to take a rest when his arms started to become numb and by then he would lie down and start to do sit-ups.

When his muscles started to scream in protest, he would then go and look around his surroundings.

“Look at that user, he’s exercising. Pfft, if he studied instead of exercising inside the game then he could go to a good university.”

“That’s right, if you play games instead of studying won’t your mom scold you?”

“Sh— shut up!”

The other users looked at him curiously but Minhyuk did not care.

I have to exercise so I can eat!

Roina watched him closely.

He’s not really resting and he kept on doing it with an indomitable will.

‘The look in his eyes… they’re different.’

And Roina saw it clearly… Minhyuk’s eyes looked different. He wasn’t smiling nonchalantly like before when he stood in front of her.

He looks like he’s exercising to live.

Did anybody hear of something like that? Well, for Minhyuk it was something like that.

He did it to live.

It was a very somber reason.

However, his reason right now was different. He was doing it so he could eat more and more delicious things today and in the future days to come.

He moved his sword without stopping. He felt an extreme sense of hunger and it was like there was someone talking in his head.

Eat, eat, eat, eat!

Even in reality, Minhyuk would always exercise like crazy. He felt like it would disappear, even for a bit, when his body was working to the extremes.

It was the same with his situation right now.

He worked out hard, moving with a craze that anybody else did not have.

When the four hours were up…

Minhyuk was able to complete it as usual.

“Oh yeah!”

Then he halted.

“…Oh yes, I want to eat.”

Minhyuk touched his stomach as he started cooking chicken again.

Early morning.

Lee Minhwa has just got up from her bed. Recently, she has been getting off work at the break of dawn due to endless meetings and plans for the new event to replace the golden chicken event.

She stretched her tired body as she slowly went to her kitchen. When she opened her refrigerator, all she could see were eggs and the sour kimchi she got from her mother.

‘There’s nothing to eat.’

She suddenly paused as she was slamming the door of the refrigerator shut.

‘Wait…!’

She took out the eggs and kimchi then she grabbed her frying pan and lit up the fire.

Sizzle!

The sizzling sound came out as she cracked an egg over the frying pan.

“He…”

Lee Minhwa grinned widely.

Just recently, User Minhyuk ate some soy sauce egg rice.

When that happened, the only thing Lee Minhwa could do was stare at it blankly. The light, savory taste of the egg seemed to linger in her mouth.

“Mix with your left hand~ mix with your right hand~”

She sang the song that the user sang unconsciously.

She flinched.

“Why am I singing this song…”

That user really had a strong talent for this.

It could always bring a smile to her face whenever she observes him.

Even though Lee Minhwa would always work overtime, strangely enough she would laugh and smile whenever she looked at that user.

‘Does eating make him that happy?’

It was but a small part of her life but to him it looked as if he was very happy as long as he had this small part of his world.

Whenever he smiles she couldn’t help but smile too.

‘Did I make it right?’

Lee Minhwa wondered as she had a big bite of her soy sauce egg rice topped with sour kimchi.

That user really liked it.

I wonder if he really started exercising?

Will he do it just so he could eat?

She finished her meal in a flash. She then hurriedly went to the office after she finished all her preparations.

Team Leader Park went to work very early. He was looking at user Minhyuk on monitor 3.

“Hello.”

“Yeah.”

Team Leader Park nodded and turned around to face her.

“Employee Lee Minhwa, your hunch was right.”

“Eh?”

“That user. He did it.”

“…?”

“He exercised for 4 hours straight just to burn all the calories. That user is really amazing.”

Team Leader Park raised his arms and shrugged.

“Ah…!”

A smile bloomed widely on her face. Team Leader Park looked at her suspiciously.

“Hmm? Why do you look so happy?”

“Ah, no.”

These days, watching Minhyuk eat was like a drink of healing water to Lee Minhwa.

Team Leader Park was puzzled.

5 hours later, they saw Minhyuk start exercising again to burn calories. They also saw the number beside his fullness stat increase from /7 to /8.

If Minhyuk stopped eating then the number beside the / would have continued to fall. However even if he burned the calories he ate it still continued to increase.

Tsk, he’s getting closer to the God class.

And at that moment.

A string of words floated up.

“….!”

Team Leader Park and Lee Minhwa’s eyes were rounded in shock.

“Da… Day after day. This… Again… What the hell.”

He had a defeated expression on his face while Lee Minhwa pulled up the screen monitoring User Minhyuk.

Instructor Roina was in front of Minhyuk.

“Team Leader, aren’t the skills given by NPCs much stronger than the skills of the same rank?”

“Yeah. It was originally very rare, besides you can even compare its power with a unique skill.”

Even if the skills were on the same rank, there would be a huge difference between learning from a skillbook and learning from someone personally.

“He has now received a good skill.”

Team Leader Park and Lee Minhwa unknowingly smiled.

[1] 바르디 검술 – I used the lit. translation which is Bardy Swordsmanship. If you look for it bardy means bold, insolent and forward. I don’t think it sounds nice as a swordsmanship name so I still retained bardy.
