70.1

Ch. 70.1 - Item (5)
Now, even if a story that didn't exist in the original appeared, it was not particularly surprising. Even the scene where Hong Bi-Yeon was sitting in front of Baek Yu-Seol, skillfully grilling samgyeopsal with tongs, didn’t faze him.

{TN:- Samgyeopsal refers to a Korean dish called "samgyeopsal," which consists of grilled pork belly slices. The tongs are used to handle and flip the meat while grilling it. In Korean cuisine, samgyeopsal is a popular choice for barbecues and is often enjoyed with various side dishes, lettuce wraps, and dipping sauces.}

It really didn’t suit her. But no matter what she did, she was so beautiful that even the scene of grilling meat looked like a photoshoot.

… But had the princess ever grilled meat before?

Sizzle!

"Hey, turn it over! Grill it!"

"... I was going to."

"Hey, give me the tongs."

"No. Today, I'll take care of it..."

"Ah, shut up and give it to me."

To burn and eat this precious meat...

It was as if she was the incarnation of fire, burning everything skillfully.

Hong Bi-Yeon patiently waited, her chubby face resting on her hands, while Baek Yu-Seol skillfully flipped the samgyeopsal and cut it into bite-sized pieces with artistic precision.

"Here, eat."

Since she was born as a princess, she usually only ate high-class food, so even the expensive black pork was nothing more than cheap food to her.

Still, Baek Yu-Seol intentionally chose this kind of food. If he randomly picked a fancy restaurant, he would be overwhelmed. He had to bring Hong Bi-Yeon to a place she didn't know so that he could sit confidently.

"... It's decent."

It meant that it didn’t taste good. Normally, when she tasted something that didn’t taste good, Hong Bi-Yeon would contort her face and forcefully spit it out. But today, she somehow managed to swallow it reluctantly.

He knew the reason why.

It was because a product of "Alchemy Engineering" had been developed in the Alchemy City.

The information had not been disclosed to the public yet for the prevention of technology leakage, but Hong Bi-Yeon would have obtained it through the information network of the Adolveit Royal Family long ago.

Perhaps she wanted to have a direct connection to the "Item Business" through him.

By introducing the innovative technology called "Item" through a person like Hong Bi-Yeon, it would provide power to the person herself.

However, he had one question.

"Did they intentionally let you know that I am the co-author? But why me? They could have contacted Assistant Alterisha directly."

"There might be some misunderstandings. While the Item is important, I consider the connection with you as an individual even more important."

"Huh?"

"Because you are a very capable talent. It won't hurt to have some kind of relationship with you."

‘I see. I didn't know she thought so highly of me.’

Sizzle!

Hearing the sound of samgyeopsal being grilled, he thought about Hong Bi-Yeon.

She was in a very precarious situation.
