“Hey, wouldn’t it be a good idea to stage a protest?”
Lieutenant Kim spoke with a trembling voice.
Upon hearing this, the faces of several soldiers, myself included, grimaced.
Some soldiers nodded in agreement with Lieutenant Kim’s words.
“Now that our food supplies are completely depleted, we have to abandon the base and moveout to somewhere else.”
“Well, we could… since our unit is in the mountains, we could dig for wild vegetables like bracken or hunt…”
“No, that’s not what I mean…”
Sergeant Park from the radar team interjected with frustration, but the fear in the eyes of the unit members remained palpable.
Understandably so.One month ago, out of nowhere, monsters suddenly appeared in the world, and many people died due to this unforeseen event.
Attempts to contact outside the unit proved futile; not only regular communications but even the emergency network within the unit failed to function.
No internet, no phone signals, no radio frequencies, nothing that seemed to work.

Even military frequencies were dead.
Anyone could predict that the situation outside was in complete chaos since the emergency network didn’t even work.
“Isn’t it safe here for now?”
“Well, it has been until now.”
A unit located in the high mountains where even monsters found it difficult to reach.
And most importantly, the defensive barriers surrounding the unit.
That’s why our unit has managed to survive so far.
It would be suicidal to abandon these advantages and move.
But now, with food running critically low, we had no choice but to abandon the security of our military base and relocate.
However, seeing the excessive fear in the unit members…
“Alright, it’s lunchtime. Let’s eat first, and then discuss further.”
I must feed them.
“Well, today’s lunch is Sari gomtang*!”
It was a popular menu among soldiers for its decent taste.
The high-calorie content in the rich beef broth was perfect for soldiers engaged in strenuous tasks.
And if you added a special sauce, it would be even better.
I pretended to add salt to the boiling sari gomtang and secretly used my skill.
[Chef’s Secret Sauce – Courage]
[Tasty food moves people’s hearts]
[It will increase the user’s courage on consumption]
Done.
Soldiers hesitantly took a spoonful of the beef soup with worried faces.
Lieutenant Kim still looked pensive as he took a spoonful of the sari gomtang.
“Anyway, try eating while you listen. Even if we must go out, gulping down food right now…”
“Are you scared?”
Lieutenant Kim paused at my words.
“Going out… I… going… out…”
Sounds of spoons dropping to the floor could be heard around.
Lieutenant Kim stood up abruptly and shouted, “Let’s go out!! Let’s go out! Pack your bags! You cowardly bastards! Is it right for soldiers to be this afraid? These deer-like brats!”
As he spoke with courage, the rest of the unit began to respond to his brave outburst.
“Damn it! It’s just going out!”
“We’ve been confined to the base for so long, let’s take a walk and hunt some monsters!”
“Heh, it’ll be perfect for post-meal exercise.”
“Yeeeaaaahhh!”
“Long live the Republic of Korea Army!!!”
With the sound of Lieutenant Kim’s courageous exclamation, I smiled contentedly.
“As expected, people need to eat.”
Sergeant Shin Young-joon.
23 years old.
I am the cook responsible for this unit.
