Besides the Star Soul Fruits, there were also changes within the personal pocket dimension.
During these past few days, Takeru also took some time to purchase ordinary poultry and livestock. He then directly used them as materials, fusing them with the meat of mutated animals or magical beasts, creating existences similar to magical beasts themselves.
Most importantly, these magical beasts were completely different from Hakuto or Pokémon that Takeru had previously manifested. These were intended by Takeru to be ingredients. Speaking of ingredients, what this food lover most yearned for, above all else, was a certain anime from his previous life: Toriko.
With the increase in precious materials he possessed and his growing proficiency with the manifestation ability, Takeru finally began attempting to create cuisine unique to special worlds.
Because the meat of many mutated animals was already top-tier ingredients, Takeru now sought to create even more delicious existences through creation magic.
Although difficult, this was no longer an absolutely unattainable goal.
Moreover, what Takeru pursued was flavor, not enhancement. Although these magical beast-like delicacies contained energy, even without deliberately seeking to strengthen the consumer, this effect would still exist. Of course, the strengthening effect might be diminished.
Furthermore, for Takeru and the others, even ingredients of Hakuge's level provided scarcely any strengthening effect.
In comparison, special resources like Life Water or Star Soul Fruits could still strengthen them.
The topic has drifted. Through Takeru's experiments, he had already manifested over ten types of special, delicious magical beasts. Besides terrestrial species, there were also aquatic and plant types.
Currently, the most numerous magical beast Takeru had manifested was the BBQ Pork. A giant pig who is already completely roasted.
Once someone entered its territory, it would mercilessly roast the enemy. It was an extremely ferocious pig. To enjoy its meat, one had to defeat it instantly, otherwise, it would become excited and its meat would turn to charcoal.
When creating them, Takeru had also attempted to remove their dangerous nature and the drawback of their meat burning. However, after removing these traits, the deliciousness of these BBQ Pigs plummeted dramatically, leaving Takeru extremely surprised.
Seeing this, Takeru stopped dwelling on it. Since these BBQ Pigs posed no danger whatsoever to Takeru and the others, he preserved their characteristics.
Then, due to material limitations, Takeru created six BBQ Pigs, each about two meters tall, and placed them in a grassland area to grow and reproduce.
Besides the BBQ Pig, Takeru also manifested four Red Hair Pigs and Crab Pigs among the porcine species!
The Red Hair Pig was a giant pig covered entirely in red hair. Possessing a powerful physique and a fierce temperament, it had sharp tusks.
Its meat was also very delicious, tender and juicy. Simply lightly grilling it could bring out the most primal flavor of the meat.
As for the Crab Pig, although its body was round and plump, it could move agilely using its six short legs. Its body was very firm, and its fat content was lower than its appearance suggested. The meat concentrated a rich deliciousness within its light taste. It tasted like eating top-grade crab.
The materials used to manifest it included not only ordinary pork and mutated pork but also a large amount of mutated crab meat.
As for how Takeru knew the taste of this pork, naturally, the moment he manifested them, he cut off a portion to taste. Then he healed them and allowed them to recover.
Although the Red Hair Pig and Crab Pig reached two meters in length, like the BBQ Pig, they were still in their growth period.
They needed to grow for some time before reaching maturity. Only after they began to reproduce and expand their population would Takeru start hunting and consuming them.
Spice Beef: Cattle with a strong, spicy, delicious flavor. Mature, juicy beef, blended with the flavors of various spices, melting instantly in the mouth while retaining the beef's original chewiness. Rich fat flows from the meat.
Sake Dragon: Its meat possesses the mellow flavor of top-grade brandy. The entire body's flesh contains alcohol components. Although Takeru was not a heavy drinker, he could still consume alcohol. Happening to have suitable materials on hand, he synthesized this creature.
Cheese Rabbit: The protein within its body easily coagulates. Its meat is as rich as cheese. Extremely fast, it prefers digging burrows and instinctively stays away from the ground. The moment Takeru manifested them and they regained consciousness, they directly burrowed underground.
Unfortunately, within Takeru's telekinesis domain, he directly pulled them out, cut off a portion to taste, then healed them and released them back.
Peach Furry Beast: Its meat is as light as poultry, but the peach on its head is exquisite. Its body is giant. After the peach is harvested, it will regrow after a period.
Potato Carrot Onion Chicken: Its meat fuses the deliciousness of these three ingredients. Simply simmered to produce a thick broth, it becomes an excellent curry sauce. The meat is tender and flavorful.
Tiger Chicken: A ferocious beast possessing the ferocity of a tiger and the wings of a chicken. Besides the deliciousness of its eggs, its meat is also an ultimate delicacy.
Ruby Crab: Its habitat is mines. Its flesh is extremely delicious, and its shell is quite good quality gemstone. Although named Ruby Crab, its shell is not necessarily ruby… it can be ruby, sapphire, or magic crystal.
Soy Sauce Locust: An insectoid beast that stores top-grade soy sauce on its back. Adults yield more mature soy sauce than larvae. However, even larvae reach one and a half meters in length.
Besides terrestrial creatures, there were also magical beasts within the ocean that Takeru had modified and manifested.
Lobster Fish: A large fish with crab claws! The body length of Takeru's initially manifested specimen was about 2.5 meters. At this size, it had not yet entered its growth period. Its fish meat was quite light and required careful seasoning to be delicious. However, the deliciousness of its crab claw portion was in no way inferior to top-grade crab.
Tuna Octopus: The front part was tuna, the rear part was squid. Its flavor was extremely delicious. The belly of the female fish contained delicious roe!
Smiling Manatee: Its rich fat was not at all greasy when chewed. The only pity was that Takeru could not grant it the special effect of its original world counterpart, where one's mouth corners would gradually lift and one's mood would become extremely joyful while eating.
At most, one's heart would become slightly joyful, similar to the happiness-inducing effect of Chansey eggs, but the effect was extremely weak.
Besides creatures, there were also several successfully modified and manifested plants.
Chocolate Mushroom: Its surface is covered with rich, mellow chocolate sauce, possessing unparalleled texture and flavor.
Almond Cabbage: A cabbage with a taste and texture close to almonds, possessing the same high calories as almonds.
Bacon Leaf: A yellow-green vegetable containing high fat comparable to beef, accompanied by a high salt content.
Banana Cucumber: Its texture is similar to cucumber. It is best paired with Bacon Leaf. The outer Bacon Leaf is tender, salty, and fragrant, while the inner Banana Cucumber is crisp and sweet.
Cocoa Mayonnaise Tree: Ripe fruits accumulate abundant oils. When squeezed out, it yields Cocoa Mayonnaise, a flavor blending the bitterness of cocoa and the sourness of mayonnaise.
White Apple: Its sugar content is higher than ordinary apples. Its texture is crisp and refreshing. Its juice is also suitable for mixing cocktails.
In fact, besides these species, Takeru had manifested many others, such as Earth Dragon Turtle, Sake Shark, or Beauty Lobster. However, upon tasting them, he found their flavors quite mediocre, and some were even unpalatable.
As for creatures like French Fry Butterfly, after Takeru manifested them, they possessed no vital signs whatsoever, as if some step had gone wrong.
Currently, the successful ones were only those listed above. Moreover, the large stockpile of materials previously reserved was now mostly depleted after manifesting these magical beasts. Takeru used the remaining portion to directly create Pokémon.
After all, he could slowly gather materials and attempt to create delicacies again later. Takeru wanted to transform his personal pocket dimension into the most amazing and desirable place.
Besides cuisine, gentle-natured and adorable-looking Pokémon were essential. Furthermore, the existence of Pokémon could also regulate these extremely dangerous ingredients.
After all, even the high-grade ingredients Takeru manifested had very average affinity towards him.
Through the different time flows within the personal pocket dimension, those he had placed inside two days ago had already begun preliminary growth. Perhaps within a few months, Takeru would be able to harvest and consume them.
Through Takeru's continuous observations, these manifested high-grade ingredients were also surviving well, showing no abnormalities due to environmental or other factors.
As for the future, it remained to be seen whether the flavors of these beings would become even more delicious or diminish upon reaching maturity.
It is worth mentioning that, perhaps because they were manifested within this personal pocket dimension itself, the presence of these magical beasts and Pokémon did not impose much burden on Takeru when he used tenfold time acceleration.
Therefore, after Takeru left, time within this world could still flow at ten times the outside rate.
