Synopsis
What's the most important thing in cooking? Many would say, knowledge. Another mass would say, mentality and talent. But for Jack, a professional home cook, the most important is not those pretentious answer. Modern appliance! Modern equipment! Thus, the crisis he felt when he was thrown into another world was not his life, but. "Ah! No!! How can I sous-vide without plastic and vacuum sealer?! How can I know the exact temperature of my meat?!! What should I do without my smart oven!!! I could watch Spongebob while waiting, dammit!!" What gave him hope was the existence of magic. And thus, fueled by pure commitment to re-create his smart kitchenware, Jack travel far and wide, hoarding magical knowledge, and sometimes even create his own magic. But, some of these magics are forbidden by nature. And Jack used them consistently, accidentally mastering them, and unknowingly... caused mayhem. "Wh-what are you...?" "... A cook, sir." "Ho! Are ya that mage that spook my brats, eh? Ye'r the real deal, I thought yer not. Lads! I challenge you!!" "... please stop making a ruckus, you'll scare my livestocks. And also, I refuse. I'm just a cook." "I see. You're definitely strong. Huhu, I like you. Join me. I'll give your far better treatment than other organization. I promise in the name of Snow White." "But I'm just a cook, Miss..." Words traveled far and wide, carrying the news of a certain man's impossible achievement. Tall, handsome, strong, and insanely smart in magic. Oh, and a little bit mastery in culinary. Many was envious, and wish it was them. But the subject of this rumors now developed a habit of stress eating disorder, and lack of sleep. And staring at his ceiling at three in the morning, he lament. "Why does things turns out this way...?" "MAGE OF FORBIDDEN! I CHALLENGE YOU---" "Oh, for god's sake!"

Chapter 1 - Prologue

"—for the first time, I distrust my very own eyes. No, I detest it. This eyes that could see what others can't were my pride, my identity. Yet, I wish I did not see that monstrosity in the form of human. It was death. Destruction. Calamity. The very personification of the 'Forbidden'. That man—or, likely, that monster, is more than strong. Strength cannot represent its bottomless power contained in that vessel of a man. So please, heed my words. Do not provoke, do not harass, do not even try to touch 'it', unless you are ready to face whatever terror 'it' would unleash as consequence. Let 'it' be."

- a snippet from the Eight Star Commander of Special Mage Battallion, Hendrick von Volkswisch's report on case 'Abnormality' class 7, to his superior, General Wright von Telschulaz of National Security and Anti-Disaster Bureau.

"I wonder if that kind-looking grandpa was enjoying the food. He looked quite distressed the whole time... well, his granddaughter cleaned the plate twice, so maybe he didn't say anything for the sake of dignity. But I wonder why he made that face..."

I recalled as I calmly dismantle the bull-like monster with two legs that I just catch.

Bull... alright. I'll cook that for today's dinner.
