Everyone is Young Except for Me Chapter 256

For the first time in a while, I used Weather Cooking and made a variety of dishes using the various meat I obtained from herbivorous dinosaurs that I killed on the way here. The young people in front of me were naturally surprised by the luxurious dishes that were made in an instant. Every one of them responded with admiration and surprise.

“D-Delicious...”

“Isn't this effect huge?”

“The buffs aren't a joke.”

“My whole body is full of power.”

“Isn't this a scam?”

“Oh my god. Giving us this type of food?”

Most of those who made the cries of admiration were those who had never eaten my food. Kim Hyeonu, Eun Jeonghyeok, and Mido nodded like they were familiar with it. They were shoving meat into their mouth.

“I knew Mido's grandfather was a chef, but I never dreamt that Dark Wolf's true identity would be a chef.”

Everyone nodded at Kim Hyeonu's words. In fact, since I revealed my identity, the media as well as the community had been busy speculating about my class. Few people believed that I was a real chef. It wasn't unreasonable to think this way since everything I had shown so far was great.

However, as could be seen, I was a chef. The only peculiar thing was the use of the weather.

“Hehe ♬ Punghee, don't stand there~ I will burn you~ ♪.”

“Puuuung~♪”

Far away, Solar and Punghee were catching up. During this time, Punghee had grown more than I thought. She was as big as me and she was over level 200. She seemed to be very good at hunting with Chunza. By the way, I didn't know if Chunza was doing well. I would have to teach her summoning magic so she could be summoned easily.

“Solar, Punghee, come here~!”

At Mido's cry, Solar and Punghee came forward like dogs who listened well. Mido and Lim Sara had hearts in their eyes.

“So cute~ ♡”

“What should I do? It is too adorable.” 

Mido stretched, pulled, and stroked Punghee's face as she talked. Solar was being held in Lim Sara's arms, who had a perverted face. She embraced Solar like Solar wasn't hot or warm. In any case, Solar and Punghee liked them so I felt better.

“Haha.”

However, the peace didn't last long.

Kwaooooh!

There was a sudden roar. A group of carnivorous dinosaurs was frantically running through the forest. The Korean team saw this sight and showed shocked expressions.

“W-What?”

“Crazy. It must be because of the poisonous gas.”

“Everyone, run!”

The group left what they were in the middle of eating and started running. Then the disaster began.

Kung kung kung kung!

I looked back at the sound of the earthquake and saw a Tyrannosaurus Rex, Jurassic Park's worst predator, devouring the predators in front of it.

“Kyaack!” 

“We are going to get caught here!”

Just then, Punghee came out.  Punghee floated in the air and wrapped wind around the young Korean people. The wind moved and then there was a message that their movement speed had increased.

“Wow, Punghee is amazing.”

“You are really the best!”

“Thank you, Punghee!”

Punghee smiled with satisfaction and approached me to rub her head against me. I stroked her head to praise her, “Well done.”

“Puuuung~”

Solar, who was next to Punghee, puffed up. “Solar wants to be stroked too, Master!”

“Yes, yes. Huhu.”

The worst predator was chasing behind us but I was relaxed. I was the most comfortable moving in the wind, where I was at my fastest. I could cross dozens of meters with one floating step. However, the disaster didn't end here.

Kwaooooh!

Another Tyrannosaurus appeared in front of us as we were running. I frowned at the sight. “Damn rotten thing.”

Just then, Park Muyeol, who had barely caught up with me, asked, “Should I cut it?”

“Can you do it?”

“Who knows? This is my first time cutting a dinosaur.”

“Let's try it together.”

Just as Park Muyeol and I were preparing for a showdown with the Tyrannosaurus in front of us, a bright light flashed in front of me.

“......!”

“......!”

It was so sudden that all my teammates, including me, closed our eyes. The thing that followed was a huge stream of water penetrating the Tyrannosauruses. The Korean team, including me, were dumbfounded. The huge stream pierced the Tyrannosaurus in front and then the one behind. It was a devastating attack. This...

[The first apostle, 'Prometheus,' is frowning.]

It was Aqua Breath. Prometheus seemed to have noticed the identity of the attack. The one who launched the Aqua Breath let out a loud roar from the sky like it had no intention of concealing its identity. It was the moment when the cry from Blash, the water dragon raised by Deucalion, echoed through Jurassic Park like it was the worst predator.

...The goal was me.

Torres' eyes were on me as he stood on Blash's head. These eyes were looking at no one other than me. The other Korean players were at a loss under this great power and stared at the sky.

[The first apostle, 'Prometheus,' is saying sorry.]

“Why are you sorry, Prometheus? I'm fine.”

Maybe this was an opportunity to break the cycle between Prometheus and Deucalion. It was just right. I had something to test out.

“Muyeol, take care of the kids behind us.”

Park Muyeol frowned at me.

“Are you going to fight him? You were pushed the last time because you aren't a good match against him.”

Park Muyeol remembered the fight at that time because he had watched the flag battle on the first day. I barely survived at that time. I would've died quickly if it wasn't for the wood power of the British David. Still, this didn't mean it was impossible.

“It's okay. I have an idea.”

“Bah. Don't die. If you die, I'll have to protect your granddaughter and the kids alone.”

I just laughed.

"Yes.”

Park Muyeol disappeared with the other Korean players and only the wind screamed. Blash's head soon touched the ground and a man descended from there, approaching while taking a drink.

“...You are a drunkard.”

“Please call me an alcohol lover, old man. Kuhuah.”

Our eyes met and sparks appeared. In this tense and quiet atmosphere, it was Torres who revealed his strength first. The water in the water jug behind him soared into the sky, forming a huge hemisphere-like barrier. Additionally, it started to fill with water. He asked me, “Do you know what this is? Hiccup!”

“Are you going to play in the water again?”

“Not water. Alcohol.”

“This or that.”

...He was going to use this from the start?

[You have been trapped in the water jug's barrier, 'Aqua Area.']

This was one of Deucalion's unique constellation skills. It's name was Aqua Area. In simple terms, it was a barrier of water. The funny thing was that if you swam to escape this place, the water barrier would also follow. It could be called a prison that followed the movements of the caster. This meant—

“It is bothersome. I have to defeat you to get out of here.”

[The first apostle, 'Prometheus,' is looking at Deucalion.]

Sparks filled the air. It seemed the staring match between father and son was fighting again. Torres watched the water filling up the barrier bit by bit and asked, “Old man, why does my constellation hate your constellation?”

“That is a very deep story.”

“Old man, you obviously know so why not tell me? I asked my constellation, but he won't tell me. Hiccup!”

“I respect the privacy of the constellations.” (privacy is in English)

“Hoh, you can also speak English?” Torres smiled and took another sip.

“I am an old man. I need to know it if I want to communicate with young people. You're drunk anyway. You'll just forget if I tell you.”

"Is that so? Ahahaha!”

I watched the laughing Torres and took out my weapon. I didn't need the Shadow Dagger because I just used Shadow Play so I only held the fork spoon. In fact, this one was enough. I was going to hold something else in my left hand anyway.

“Since I'm an elderly man, can I attack first?”

Torres extended the gauntlets he was wearing instead of answering.

“Thank you.”

The moment I used the wind, the water split from side to side. Rising Sun couldn't be used here. The only thing left for me was the technique of Wind Flying Kick Technique, Blade Wind. I kicked quickly and released dozens of blades. However...

“Kuhuk. That won't work, old man,” Torres spoke with a mouth that smelled of alcohol and created a thick wall of water in front of him.

No, it was a wall of alcohol.

“Bah.”

[The first apostle, 'Prometheus,' is shouting at you to be careful!]

At the same time, the wall of water rushed over here. It turned into a huge wave that tried to swallow me. I barely escaped by using the wind. In the place where I had been standing, the space of water had been transformed into a cube. It was an underwater prison. This was the skill Underwater Prison, which was one of Deucalion's specialties. It was an absolute prison that trapped enemies inside and drowned them using the power of water. Once caught, it couldn't be escaped from unless someone attacked or the caster released it himself. 

For reference, on the first day, Zhen Sulong was caught in it and was greatly troubled. He couldn't get out on his own and I remembered that I barely saved him. Anyway...

“It is tricky.”

Moreover, the crisis wasn't over.

“......!”

A mirror of water suddenly rose in front of me. I was shocked and quickly lowered my eyes, but it was too late.

Hydroponics Bordeaux. 

Dammit. This was a very annoying skill. It was creating a mirror of water to make the same object. It had a power equivalent to 70% of the original. The water clone formed in an instant and stared at me. The clone that looked exactly like me started to dance.

“...Shit. Blade Wind.”

It seemed to be deja vu of what happened before. The water clone flew toward me quickly, causing waves. It was 70% of the power, but it was of the wind. I was flustered and started to avoid it. The water disaster didn't stop here.

“This damn serpent head...!”

The water dragon, Blash, moved back and forth through the water on the ground and surrounded me with its long body. Now I was caught between the water clone and the rising Aqua Area. Adding in the water dragon, Blash, and Torres, it was a 4-on-1 showdown. I asked him, “Don't you know how to respect the elderly?”

“I'm sorry. I'm an orphan.”

“You damn guy.”

I could call Fenrir, but that wasn't the card I should take out now. Furthermore, I didn't know what future fights would occur. Still, it was as I said earlier. There was one more thing I had left.

...Just a bit more. I watched the rapidly filling water and waited patiently.  It was just that defending against the continued attacks wasn't easy. This place was almost like underwater.

...It wasn't easy. Sure enough, a zodiac was too strong. Soon, Aqua Area was filled with water and there was only an empty space at the top. I felt it was time. “Come out, Ice Tag Fairy.”

The pendant in my hand radiated a brilliant glow.

[The third-grade star, 'Ice Tag Fairy,' is looking at you.]

A star rose about the pendant I held. In an instant, my left arm froze. I looked up at the sky and spoke, “Is Christmas over?”

[The third-grade star, 'Ice Tag Fairy,' says yes.]

“Your strength is needed. It is your special move.”

[The third-grade star, 'Ice Tag Fairy,' is pondering for a moment before  nodding.]

Just then, an indescribable coolness surrounded my left hand. Torres looked panicked as he watched the water start to freeze at a high speed. He was shaking his head from side to side as he became more sober.

I smiled and continued speaking, “...Permafrost.”

Just then, the world became a white winter. Aqua Area froze in less than a second and turned into a pure white glacier. It was a land that was frozen all year round. As the name suggested, it was permafrost. Torres and I stood in the middle of the glacier that started to fall apart. The Aqua Area he created, the water clone, and the water dragon, Blash, became cold ice statues, and collapsed.

“Now, let's start over.”

“...Old man, what the hell is your identity? Damn, I've sobered up.”

“I'm a very ordinary grandfather.”

“Bullshit.”

Torres rushed forward with more serious eyes. Our fight started from now on.
