I! Cleaner!-Chapter 753 - 688: No Such Thing as a Good Feast?

Okay, it seems the Master Performer successfully deceived the Master of Banquets, I’ve managed to get through this hurdle.

Upon noticing the "gaze" stubbornly locked on him starting to lessen, and more focus shifting to the petite female Cleaner, Leon, who was indulging wildly, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He could accept other director positions, but the Cancer Director’s position truly made him uncomfortable, engaging in a prolonged kiss with a nearly three hundred-pound portly old man was certainly beyond his tolerance limit.

However, although he didn’t want to inherit the Cancer Director position, he was extremely interested in Cancer’s secret technique, as possessing this technique would mean he had acquired five of the Twelve Secret Techniques.

If someday in the future, he managed to learn the remaining secret techniques, directly mastering all Twelve Secret Techniques, he felt it was highly likely he could earn quite an impressive badge, perhaps even reaching the same level as the Immortal of Liquor.

Innocence and badges, I want them all!

Secretly opening the panel, glancing at the four glittering Arcane Inheritor badges, Leon once again firmed his resolve.

To achieve the goal of learning Cancer’s secret technique without being tied down, in this Cancer palace selection, he must not perform too poorly to lose the opportunity to learn the technique, nor too well to truly catch the Cancer Director’s eye.

Considering this big shot’s tendency to slaughter and cook the Pisces Director’s fish, he might not be as reasonable as the Pisces Director, and once fixated on him, even if he forcefully refused, it might not end well.

Therefore, the best strategy was to cling to this flat-chested shield, perform slightly worse than her, but much better than others, emphasizing a "close yet distant," "weak but able to escape," to successfully avoid the Cancer Director’s deadly deep kiss.

Plan works!

...

"What?!"

After finding the only road to a happy end for himself, Leon immediately "shocked," hurriedly putting down his knife and fork amid the disappointed expression of the Cancer Director, he gently touched the fresh sashimi on the plate with his fingertips.

"Buzz"

[Name: Feast of Corpse - Leon Laine (Miracle, Blood, Soul)]

[Appearance: Variable, but usually takes the form of delicious cuisine, currently a plate of fresh black-tailed cold mackerel sashimi.]

[Ability: Feast of Glutton, Blood and Flesh Completion, soul brushing]

[Cost: Paid by the opener, but each intelligent being cannot join the Feast of Corpse again before completely perishing.]

[File: Current Cancer Director of the Clean-up Bureau, entrusted by old friend Chels MacLean before his death, completely stripped his obsession and skills in culinary from his soul after "Master of Banquets" Chels MacLean passed away.

Later, former Aquarius Director of the Clean-up Bureau used "Abnormal Creation" secret technique to create this self-devouring unique abnormal object, based on Master Chels’s skills and obsession.]

Every guest invited to the feast will experience exquisite cuisine made from their existence, and after consuming all the dishes representing themselves, their flesh and soul will be brushed, filling shortcomings, healing scars, eradicating chronic sicknesses, achieving theoretically perfect state.]

[Evaluation: Eating is the primary premise to sustain life; consuming entities that sustain one’s life and being consumed by entities at life’s end is the ultimate fate of almost all creatures, only the Ouroboros, the world serpent that feeds on itself, can sustain existence through self-consumption.

Thus, the Feast of Corpse personally hosted by the Cancer Director is also known as the Tailed Banquet, where all guests will completely consume their old selves like an Ouroboros, and receive an ultimate perfect rebirth.]

[Contamination Value: 60]

Holy crap!

Even knowing from the start that the Cancer Director is unlikely harming others in the selection, the restrictive scene is merely surface, but after seeing the specifics of the Feast of Corpse, Leon couldn’t help but gasp in shock.

Blood and Flesh Completion, soul brushing, healing scars, eradicating chronic sicknesses, achieving theoretically perfect state... every effect here could almost be described as a complete transformation!

Swallowing the tender and sweet, textured "fish meat" in his mouth, Leon couldn’t help but rub his fingertips, discovering the calluses on the Tiger’s mouth and fingertip had unknowingly faded, his skin becoming fair and smooth.

Moreover, besides that, various sun marks left from working under the scorching sun, sores and scars from factory gear injuries, slightly forward bent cervical and spinal vertebrae, and the fingers slightly misaligned from not timely aligning after an injury two years ago...

In the instant "fish meat" entered his stomach, all damages life had left on his body abruptly lightened, even the joints felt faint numbness, there was a peculiar sensation like undergoing secondary growth.

"No worries, eat up."

Subconsciously turning his head, glancing at the kindly smiling Cancer Director, Leon pressed the panic-stricken female Cleaner, patting her shoulder:

"Mr. Cancer won’t harm us, this dish is really good stuff."

"I... I don’t actually disbelieve Mr. Cancer..."

Hearing Leon’s firm judgment, the female Cleaner who knew his capability finally calmed down a bit, awkwardly nodded to apologize to the Cancer Director, then whispered urgently:

"But this is really terrifying! You... Oh! You can’t see exactly what’s happening! You don’t know how scary your current appearance is! If you could see, you absolutely wouldn’t dare take a bite!"

Sorry, I can see it all, but currently eating deliciously.

Glancing at the resistant female Cleaner, considering he planned to use her as a shield to avoid the Cancer Director’s deadly deep kiss, Leon felt somewhat guilty.

After pondering for a moment, Leon raised his fork, gently tapping the plate in front of the female Cleaner, soothingly:

"Just eat, there really are benefits, and very big ones!"

"But... but you all started eating and then cracked open all over, with various parts shaking around like... like..."

"Eat, it’ll enhance your chest."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

After a long silence, the female Cleaner lowered her head in defeat, picked up her plate, sat back at her spot, then tightly closed her eyes, picked up knife and fork fiercely stabbing at a piece of sashimi, trembling and swallowing it whole without chewing.

And then stabbed another piece, stabbed another piece.

After finishing everything on her plate first, yet unsatisfied, she even grabbed the plate, turning around to start licking it with her tongue, even the large block of wasabi for seasoning was licked cleanly with tearful eyes.
