## Chapter 1520 – Chronicles of the Sword-Clad Foreigner – Demon God of Another World
As they chewed and swallowed that single piece, their eyes widened more and more.
And then.
“Delicious…! It’s delicious!”
Liz exclaimed, touching her cheeks.
“Hoo… Quite decent…”
“W, what is this?”
Risha and Karin were also deeply impressed.
“Delicious…”
Cloudy even wiggled her ears, saying it was delicious…! Yes! I knew it!
If they tasted proper sashimi, of course they’d be impressed!
Sashimi isn’t some barbaric dish where you just chew on raw fish like Gollum from Lord of the Rings! It’s about taking the most delicious flesh, cutting it out when it’s freshest, and enjoying it!
Of course, the concept is to cook meat before eating it. But sashimi completely breaks that mold. Even though it shattered that formality, it rose to the position of luxury, so the taste is guaranteed!
“What did I tell you?”
ㅡSwish.
ㅡSwish.
ㅡSwish.
Their chopsticks started moving.
Picking up a piece of tuna sashimi, dipping it in soy sauce, and bringing it back to their mouths. Their eyes widened again, and exclamations of admiration escaped. After savoring the taste, they tried the salmon sashimi that came as a side dish. Then, they extended their devilish hands to the grilled black cod next to it.
“It’s different… From the way you chew it, it’s different from cooked fish… But it’s not unpleasant, it’s actually tasty…”
Winia said after eating the grilled black cod and putting the tuna sashimi back in her mouth.
“How can it be so delicious! Is this really just sliced raw fish? No! How can it taste like this? There’s no fishy taste at all, and the oily taste is so savory…! Did you do something to it separately?”
Liz exclaimed again.
“Separate treatment? The moment you do that, it’s not sashimi anymore. Look, what did I say? I said it was luxury cuisine.”
“I’m sorry for screaming earlier! I didn’t know it would be this delicious!”
“M, me too, I’m sorry. I thought the damn foreigner was going to do something weird eating strange food… It’s just delicious.”
“Hehehehe! It’s okay if you understand! Ah! But seriously, I’m introducing food to my women, so of course it’s going to be delicious!”
Anyway, I’m happy!
That they’ve come to know the taste of sashimi!
When we go back, I’ll have to build an aquarium in my castle.
“Honestly, I kind of… thought of it as like… eating a corpse. You know. If it’s raw, it’s like that, right? Blood dripping out, fishy. Something like that.”
“Hehehe, it’s qualitatively different from that. It’s not just tearing off raw flesh and eating it. It’s properly slicing the flesh and bringing it out like this.”
That is the true taste of sashimi.
Just tearing off a whole, wriggling fish and eating it? That’s definitely absurd. Maybe that’s what they were imagining.
“But, Katt.”
“Hmm?”
“It’s completely different from the fish-man meat we tasted back then. Honestly, the fish-man wasn’t tasty. But this.”
Ah.
“Of course it’s different. Fish-man meat was ultimately just a substitute.”
“A substitute?”
“Yeah. A substitute. Now that I think about it, there’s no comparison. Back then, it had been a long time since I had eaten this, so I was just satisfied eating something like that. If you told me to eat it again, I don’t think I could. I won’t even look at fish-men anymore.”
At those words, Cloudy smiled brightly and put her hands together.
“That’s a relief!”
“Huh? Why?”
“No, it’s nothing.”
What is it?
“Anyway, Katt-nim! I’m sorry for misunderstanding too! I was worried because I thought Katt-nim was eating raw things!”
“Really. Earth’s food is even mysterious. Even just this raw fish tastes like this… I have to admit it. Earth’s food culture is definitely more overwhelming.”
Kadia, who likes luxurious things, is also very satisfied.
“I imagined a slightly more unpleasant texture and taste, but the texture is good and the oily taste is also excellent. I like it even more than chicken.”
“I agree.”
“I concur.”
Let’s enjoy sashimi from now on too.
“Seongdo-nim. Are there any other fish? I want to taste a little more variety!”
“Okay!”
I immediately pressed the bell and called the employee.
“Yes! Cheonma-nim!”
“It’s very delicious. Bring out all the types of fish in this restaurant. And looking at it, there are also grilled and fried menus. Bring all of those too.”
“I understand!!”
“We can eat much more than humans can. Keep that in mind.”
“Of course! Ah! But!”
But?
“We also handle pufferfish!”
Pufferfish?
Ah. Come to think of it, there was pufferfish sashimi.
I’ve never eaten that before.
“Pufferfish? What kind of fish is it?”
I immediately pretended not to know and asked.
“The best of all sashimi is made with pufferfish!”
“Hoo.”
“But pufferfish has poison!”
“Poison?”
“The organs of pufferfish contain a deadly poison to humans, but there is a technique to remove it!”
At those words, Liz reacted in our language.
“That. That sounds good! Let’s eat that too!”
Good.
“Then bring that out too.”
“I understand!”
But now that I think about it, there’s no need to remove the poison. Biological poison is just like a spice like chili powder.
“Wait.”
“Yes?”
“I’m also curious about the poisonous fish. You said the poison is in the organs? Bring out the liver too.”
“Yes?!”
“I’m thinking of eating it with it. There’s no need to worry. Biological poison is just a slightly unique spice. To us, deadly poison is just an ingredient.”
“B, but as a fish chef, I can’t do that…”
“Please.”
When I asked strongly, the chef eventually gave in.
“Y, yes…”
Then, while we’re eating pufferfish, shall we taste the pufferfish poison too?
“Ha! I’m really looking forward to it! Another kind of sashimi!”
“Hehehe, you like it that much? No. Is that really the same older sister who was screaming until just now?”
“Please forgive me. It was my fault. Okay?”
“Depending on what you do for me, I might not forgive you.”
“Hehehe, then.”
Anyway.
While we were waiting, the pufferfish sashimi came out.
Along with the liver.
“White flesh sashimi is always with gochujang.”
I immediately set up the gochujang.
No matter what happens, white flesh sashimi is always with gochujang. I never eat white flesh sashimi with soy sauce. Because it’s too terrible.
“Then let’s eat!”
We immediately tasted the pufferfish sashimi.
“Hey! This is good too!”
“It is very tasty. You said it was pufferfish? It tastes completely different from tuna.”
“Right?”
As expected of luxury cuisine, the reaction is good. I also picked up a piece and ate it… This. It’s more delicious than I thought. It was the first time I was eating pufferfish. But if I were to choose, I like tuna more.
“Of course, this isn’t the main thing.”
ㅡThud.
I grabbed the plate containing the pufferfish liver.
“This is the liver, which can be said to be the essence of pufferfish’s deadly poison. It’s a poison that humans can never withstand.”
“Damn foreigner. Do you have to eat something like that? Why eat poison?”
“I have to taste it. It’s okay.”
Then I have to eat it!
I immediately grabbed the pufferfish liver with my bare hands and bit into it violently!
ㅡSplurt!
“Kuaaaaaa!”
Indeed, the taste is…!
“O, ooh…!”
A taste that makes your eyes widen!!!
“This is the taste of tetrodotoxin!!!!”
Deadly pooooison!!!
It’s unique! It has a unique taste! Is this the taste of tetrodotoxin that sends people to the afterlife! Somehow, it seems to go very well with pufferfish sashimi! As expected, when it comes to pufferfish, it’s tetrodotoxin, and when it comes to tetrodotoxin, it’s pufferfish sashimi! It was a taste that went well together, like eating bossam with bossam kimchi!
“Where! Where, I want to try it too!”
“Hmm… Ah. It’s delicious. It’s deadly poison. As Father said, humans definitely wouldn’t be able to withstand it.”
“But to us, it’s just a specialty dish!”
That’s how we ate all the pufferfish sashimi.
A sense of satisfaction appeared on their faces.
“To think that raw fish, which I thought was disgusting, was this delicious…! I! I’ve decided! I’m going to enjoy all the delicacies on Earth before I go back!!!”
Liz, who had jumped up, clenched her fist and shone her eyes. No. She was really emitting blue light.
I really can’t figure out this older sister.
“So next! What other delicious food is there?! Let’s go eat that next! If possible, something unique! Something unique and special! I think it would be good to eat something like that!”
Something unique and special?
“Insect cuisine?”
“Insect cuisine? What’s that?”
“Dishes made with insects.”
“Kyaaaaaaaaak!!!!!!!!!”
Don’t scream.
Of course, insect cuisine doesn’t belong to fine dining and doesn’t taste good either. It’s definitely not a luxury food.
* * *
That’s how we diligently ate the sashimi and fried foods, enjoying dinner. It felt like we had already eaten tens of kilograms of sashimi.
“Hehehe, this fried shrimp is really delicious. The meat inside is soft, so it tastes different from chicken.”
“Right?”
Cloudy seemed to be obsessed with fried shrimp. It’s definitely completely different from chicken. Because of its unique soft flesh, fried shrimp is called the emperor of fried foods.
Anyway, we ate not only tuna, but also flounder, rockfish, and amberjack. Of course, they considered tuna to be the best. Let’s eat it often in the future.
“Hya. Anyway, today was good. I shot guns to my heart’s content. This sashimi was quite delicious too. Yeah. It’s been a while since I’ve had a proper play. I feel so refreshed. I’m really relaxing with peace of mind.”
As we came outside, Karin stretched and said.
“Hehehe, was it that good? But was shooting guns that fun?”
“It has a different taste from a sword. Anyway, it’s really fun… I want to see more of those war movies too. Isn’t there anything else? Let’s watch it when we get back.”
War movies are good.
“There’s a lot. I’ll choose them for you.”
I think everyone will like the first Starship Troopers movie.
“But I think something else would be good too.”
“What? Something else?”
That.
“There’s something called FPS games.”
Should I teach them how to play games?

The next day.
As originally planned, I used the Cheonma Gate to visit the President.
The destination is the main gate of the Fortress Cheongwadae.
Cheongwadae, which was destroyed by the Gate incident, had now completely transformed into a fortress-like appearance. Large towers and huge naval guns were installed at each corner of the square building, and there were no windows on the outer walls. Even the rooftop was equipped with anti-aircraft Vulcan cannons and a permanent garrison.
It was truly a fortress in itself.
Of course, I had a free pass, and in less than 5 minutes, I met the President. I shook hands with him, greeting him warmly, and said.
“President. You must know that I went to experience Earth’s weapons this time.”
“Of course I know. It was a really surprising report. I heard that the Queens were having fun shooting guns, but I couldn’t believe it at all. I was even surprised to hear that you were holding a howitzer like a pistol and shooting it. So how was it? The weapons of Korea?”
It was good.
Everyone enjoyed it, so I was very satisfied.
“It was fun to play with. Definitely. They were weapons that very effectively tore apart weak humans. I could feel that the technology of weapons was extremely developed because there were no transcendents.”
“That’s right. And the final destination of those weapons is the nuclear bomb. But… Cheonma-nim’s instant annihilation of the Otherworlded Chinese continent is something that can never be imitated.”
Of course that would be the case.
How could a weapon created by mortals reach me?
“That’s right. Anyway. The reason I came here like this is because I have something else to say.”
“What is it?”
“Why does your Korea still maintain a slave soldier system?”
“Yes?”
“When I talked to the warriors, they said they only received 300,000 won a month. It’s an absurd level. Why are you maintaining such a slave soldier system?”
“Th, that’s…”
Perhaps because it was an unexpected topic, he flinched for a moment.
“I am the god of humans. As the god of humans, I will never, ever recognize a slave system.”
“…”
“I have not only prohibited wars between humans. I have also prohibited slavery. I can’t condone the atrocity of enslaving warriors who protect the country, even if it’s done to punish those who are guilty. I’ll give you a chance to fix it.”
If you don’t fix it, it’s an inhumane flick on the forehead.
“…”
The President, who had been watching my reaction for a moment, replied.
“Th… That’s right. It was a problematic system. Yes. I will fix it within this month.”
“Do so. I can’t recognize the slave system.”
