[Western Fantasy] The Hero's Cookbook

A farming story about a hero meeting a foodie, with running a business, cooking, and more. Foodie: There isn't a monster that can't be turned into an ingredient, or a recipe I can't come up with! Hero: This is the slime that was my sworn enemy in my starting village. Foodie: Toss it in a salad! Hero: This is the ghoul that was my sworn enemy on my journey. Foodie: Stir-fry it! Hero: This is the Demon King, my sworn enemy at the end of my journey. Foodie, drooling: Look at that plump, sturdy Demon King. Every part of him is a treasure! Hero: ...I never thought I'd one day put all my sworn enemies in a pot. What a thrill! The hero used to be a champion. But after slaying the dragon and sealing away the Demon King, people said, "The hero? He's useless now." The banished hero repeatedly teeters on the edge of going dark. Fortunately, he picks up a foodie and is gradually healed. When the Demon King appears again, people cry, "Hero, come save us!" Hero: Huh? Sorry, I'm busy farming and spoiling my foodie. No time.
