Chapter.40 Cooking Competition

“I woke up because I was hungry. Your back is so comfortable that you don’t want to get up. There’s a problem with your back! “It’s so warm!”

“Is it wrong to be warm? “Even if you give me a piggyback ride, this is nonsense.”

“Hehehe.”

It looks like he has no intention of getting off his back after waking up. He hissed and gently put his face on the back and didn’t move a single inch after that.

“It’s not nonsense. There’s a problem… “It’s warm and I’m sleepy again.”

I can’t stop you.

Besides, now is not the time to chat like this. You have to choose the time and place. First, let’s take out the group of thugs in front of us. As he hurriedly approached, an impatient gangster glared at Licent and started yelling.

“Are you Licent?”

“No.”

Then Licent denied it. This is a very bold denial.

“They say no?”

Is it really possible to tell the truth? If that’s the case then you really are an incorrigible fool.

“Of course you’ll say no, you idiot!”

Wow!

Then the gangster was kicked by a colleague next to him and rolled away.

The quality of the gangsters is so low that I’m speechless. The situation itself is too unrealistic. There is zero sense of reality.

Licent is shaking his head, covering his nose with a torn handkerchief to prevent a nosebleed.

He continues to say that he is not Riccent.

“Not really!”

“Don’t be ridiculous. Here is a picture. “It’s the same!”

“no. Look at this. “Your nose is different!”

“A nose?”

“There’s nothing like this on the nose in the picture!”

He speaks confidently, pointing to the handkerchief I gave him. What is this?

It’s getting to the point where I can’t even listen to it any more.

“Mr. Licent.”

“yes?”

“Come here. “Did I tell you?”

“What what?”

“Look, you’re Riccent! “Answer what that guy says now!”

“Oh really. Didn’t I tell you? I’ll destroy anything that gets in my way. And he takes first place in cooking. Whether it’s interference from the judges or something!”

“yes yes… “It was like that.”

“First of all, I’m looking forward to destroying this trivial obstacle. “Rulin, blow them all away.”

“Where are you going to fly it?”

“Just sky high? “Whether you live or die, it’s luck.”

“Oh oh. “That would be fun!”

Lulin was excited and immediately the people in front of him ascended to the height of the sky.

Shoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

It’s an amazing whirlwind. Looks like I got caught in a tornado.

“Hehehe. “I lost everything!”

At the same time, a scream is heard.

“Aaaahhh!”

“Aaaahhh!”

“What is this!”

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, this was Mr. Licent’s scream. Lulin blew away everyone in front of him. No, I told them to throw everything, but we had to leave out our side.

“Hey dude!”

“why why why! Are you shouting… .”

“Right now, carefully put down that woman with the tissue stuck in her nose.”

“Huh? “You told me to blow it all up, so I did!”

“First of all, he’s on the same side!”

“Same side?”

Even if you ask with an accent that says you have no idea about such things. Well, for a human to settle into Lulin’s brain, it would be impossible to meet him once or twice.

“That’s enough, put him down.”

“i get it. “Because it’s not difficult.”

Lulin used magic again and Licent landed in front of us. Licent was so surprised that he looked at me blankly with a bewildered expression.

My nose was already bleeding, and my hair was all messed up from flying around, making it look unappealing.

“What is this…” Is it work?”

“I’m surprised?”

“Of course everyone is surprised! What is this… ! Why all of a sudden… .”

“I said I would break it. It’s magic. Magic. “Actually, this guy is a wizard.”

“yes? “Wizard?”

Licent was shocked and astonished.

“Really?”

After flying through the sky, it came down and began to approach Rurin with shaky legs.

With a look of respect in his eyes.

“ah! i get it. “You’re the kid I was eating those cool, hot noodles just yesterday!”

Then Lurin suddenly clapped her hands as if she had finally remembered. Have you been thinking about that this whole time?

***

After hearing that Lulin was a wizard, Licent became calm. Mainly in front of Rurin.

The liver and gallbladder are being held in a position to be removed. It seemed like they thought that since the wizard was on our side, we might actually win.

Well, it’s easier if you think of it that way.

Anyway, I explained that sabotage can be defeated, but anyway, winning first place in a cooking competition is purely based on taste, so I presented the dish again for that purpose.

Since the cooking competition is only a part of the festival and you have to actually sell a lot of dishes to people the next day to win, I thought it would be better to choose something that was easier to make rather than making a separate dish and eating it with dip, so I decided on Maa Skewers.

“I made five different types of skewers. “Actually, there are an infinite number of skewers, but it would be overwhelming if there were too many types, so I guess I should say that I focused on 5 types.”

“Oh my, it smells so good!”

Licent started jumping up and down as he looked at the five different types of skewers I had made.

“First, let’s taste each type. Hehe. This is the most common skewer. “It has a slightly spicy taste.”

I held out the skewer to Licent. Lulin is already holding a skewer.

This is the same dish as grilled chicken on skewers, which is most commonly sold on the streets of Korea. Of course, the material is Maa.

Surprisingly, the skewers went better than the soup. It was easier to catch the unique smell than soup.

“Let me taste it.”

Licent grabbed the skewer handed to him and brought it to his mouth.

“oh! This is also very delicious! taste… .”

Licent said once that it was delicious and was about to repeat it again, but suddenly he made a face where something came up to the top of his head and eventually exploded.

“Hhhhh! Veryoooooooooo!”

I jumped up and started running around wildly. In the end, he was hit on the forehead by a pole. However, the sharp pain seemed to be worse than the pain, so I started jumping up and down.

“What is that creature? Tsk tsk.”

Lulin, looking at the recent, moves the skewer himself. He held the skewer tightly and opened his mouth.

“Yes, if you are trained in spicy chicken fried noodles, this level won’t be that spicy.”

“Ah, that! Fire chicken! That thing is not for humans to eat! This is okay because it doesn’t suck that much. “The problem is always red.”

Serena suffered a mysterious loss. Anyway, Lurin opened her mouth, took out a piece of the skewer, bit it, and chewed it. The sauce sticks to Lulin’s mouth.

When the shape of a skewer and Rurin meet, it can be said to be a natural result.

“Tsk tsk tsk. Well, it’s no big deal. What can I do with this much… That’s such a mess… .”

“huh? what? what’s the matter?”

Lurin suddenly stood up without saying a word. And opened his mouth.

“Hey, you can’t believe it… No way, I’m going to use breath… .”

“… … .”

“Kwaaaaaaaaaa! no. Stop!”

I don’t know magic, but I can’t breathe.

I had to cover his mouth with my own. I kissed you unintentionally.

“Uuuuuuuup!”

An emergency measure to prevent Breath from being fired.

And he quickly summoned milk. Because I don’t have time to go looking for milk.

Then, Lurin began to run wild as if she was in pain, even as she drank the milk.

Now that I think about it, why does my mouth hurt after covering Lurin’s mouth? Does it feel tingly? Is this a spicy pain?

Something is a little strange.

So Lurin took a bite of the finished skewer. Tsk. This isn’t spicy, it’s almost torturous.

Even though it was spicy, it was so spicy that I just spit it out.

In a way, it’s natural that if you eat something like this, you’ll go crazy like those two.

Why?

I used Korean red pepper powder, but why is it so spicy? I was embarrassed and went into the kitchen. Storing Korean red pepper powder in a bag… Isn’t it written like this?

To make the most important sauce for the skewers, I brought all the ingredients from Rare, but it seems I brought the most important red pepper powder by mistake.

What I wrote is the peppers that grow in this world.

Were you confused because it looked similar when you made it into powder?

The color of this one is similar to Korean red pepper powder. The color produced by using red pepper powder from Korean peppers is similar to the color produced by using this pepper.

But the spiciness is like heaven and earth.

It boasts a spiciness comparable to that of Earth’s Bhut Jolokia, and even just a little bit can make someone who can’t handle spicy food faint.

I kept it because I thought it was amazing that something spicy like this existed in this world. So you brought it?

So why do the colors look the same?

This is only used to annoy someone. I came out again and looked at Rurin and Ricent.

The restaurant was already being devastated. The table was smashed.

Even I, who spit out after eating, must feel awkward with sweat beading on my forehead.

It was an hour later that the two calmed down. The amount of milk consumed is over ten packs.

Moreover, Licent was still having hiccups.

When I handed him the second skewer, he responded with a shocked look on his face.

“Hi, that’s that…” If you don’t eat it… Hi… No? “How could the ingredients be wrong?”

“I said I was sorry. Instead, this isn’t spicy at all, so don’t worry.”

“Is that true? Hi!”

“yes. No problem at all. Not at all. Come on Rurin! You try it first. “Do we, Rurin, absolutely trust me?”

“you… !”

“why? What? “What is that lack of faith in your eyes?”

“… “Think about what you did earlier!”

Lurin growled in disgust. I have nothing to say. I did something wrong, so I should at least go into the mouse hole.

Still, I cannot give in because I have to regain my lost honor.

“Still believe it?”

So I looked again earnestly. Then he sighs and lowers his head.

“It’s against the law to look at me like that! I believe it. Even if you try to kill me, I can’t help it because I will believe you. Give it to me!”

Lurin excitedly picked up a skewer. I think it shines from your confident appearance? Hehehe.

Anyway, there is zero chance that this one will be spicy.

It’s not Korean-style chicken skewers, but Japanese-style yakitori. It didn’t contain any of the spicy additives that make it so spicy. Soy sauce is the base. Rather than being spicy, it has an exquisite sweet and salty taste. Would you say it is the quintessence of sweet and salty?

What Rurin picked up now was a skewer made from Maa’s thigh meat covered in soy sauce. The thigh meat skewer made from chicken is called momo in Japan.

The fat is adequate and it is a little more savory than the typical cut. Its savory taste is its charm. The sweet yet rich taste of soy sauce is also Rurin’s favorite taste.

So there is no problem at all.

Rurin opened her mouth wide, but then, as if remembering something from earlier, she timidly took out only the end. Should I say that it is rather unsightly compared to what I picked up with great excitement?

“Huhhh yum yum. “Huh?”

He chewed with a frown on his face and was wary, and then suddenly he became angry.

I roll my eyes back and forth, roll my tongue back and forth, and taste it. I soon realized that I liked the taste and started eating the remaining skewers. It was an instant until only the skewer remained in Lulin’s hand.

Then he put a lot of grilled skewers in his mouth and spoke while chewing.

“Hey Maida! “Oh, it’s a falcon!”

This is delicious and this is not spicy! Lurin shouts. I shrugged and looked at Licent. With a look on his face.
