"However, I did discover something."

"What?"

"Let's talk about this when Hancock gets here. It's a very strange thing, and I feel like we should have a meeting."

"Huh?" x引n

Chapter 148 The Final Eight: The Immense Pressure on Hisako (Please Subscribe~)

While Bai Yu was preparing coffee jelly, Lucifer and the others took the opportunity to have a good chat with Robin and the others. It was clear that Nami couldn't talk about many things right now, so they didn't ask, even though Harley Quinn and the others were almost frantic with worry.

Whether it was Karina's vivaciousness and shrewdness or Robin's gentleness and intellect, Lucifer and the others were very fond of her. Lucifer also mentioned the truth about his plan to call Azazel up. Nami just shrugged and didn't say anything. Obviously, it was enough for her to know about this.

"So, for the next few days, you two will stick with me. I'll definitely show you around properly! This area can practically be our own territory now!"

Karina clicked her tongue and said, "Look how smug you are, talking like you have a lot of influence."

"I'm fine when I speak, but when our whole family gets together, it carries a lot of weight, you know."

"Tsk... Mr. Bai Yu! We're here!"

Before Karina could finish speaking, she saw Bai Yu walk out of the kitchen. The next moment, she changed what she was going to say to this sentence. Bai Yu also smiled and nodded, saying, "I heard you. You've been chatting for a long time. Welcome, both of you. Your room has been arranged, 910. Nami will take you there at night."

"Thank you, Mr. Bai Yu! So, may we order now? I'm starving."

"Of course, what would you like to eat?"

Karina blinked, then said somewhat strangely, "But, where's the menu?"

Robin suddenly remembered something and said with a smile, "I remember now, Nami and Zoro said before that there is no menu in the shop, any dish can be made as long as there are ingredients, there is no signboard, and it can't be found on the map. It's really true."

"Huh? How do I order food...?"

Nami propped her chin on her hand and said, "It's very simple. Just order whatever you want to eat. If you don't know what to eat, just tell me what kind of dishes you want, whether they are meat or vegetables, and what flavor they are. My husband will determine the type of dishes for this meal based on the types of dishes we order."

Robin pursed her lips and said, "That being said, it's the first time I've ordered like this, so I'm really not sure. Nami, you guys go ahead and order."

"Okay, okay, I'm used to it. Every time I go back and come back, I have to start... um... Gion-nee, Tina-nee, let's eat Asian food, like Chinese or Japanese food. It feels weird for six people to eat Western food."

"Anything is fine, you can order."

Nami thought for a moment and said, "Hmm...then I'll order a braised beef stew. Gion-nee, what do you guys want to eat?"

Momousagi said with a headache, "To be honest, ordering food at Manager Shiraha's restaurant is really a brain drain. Let's just have a chicken dish, nothing too bland, but if possible, not spicy either. Something that goes well with drinks would be great."

"no problem."

Tina thought for a moment and said, "Then Tina will order a seafood dish!"

Karina scratched her head and said, "I don't know what to order, but I want something spicy, and something sweet...something to go with drinks would be great!"

"Okay, no problem. Meat or vegetarian?"

"Eat meat!"

"Heh... As expected, so, Miss Robin and Nojiko, where are you two?"

Robin sighed and said, "It seems there aren't any vegetarian dishes available right now. I'll just order a vegetarian dish, anything is fine, how about Nojiko?"

"It looks like you're all going to drink, so let's skip the soup and order a cold dish instead, which will go well with their drinks."

"Okay, to be honest, I would be very happy if all the guests ordered the snacks to go with their drinks."

"why?"

"Because snacks are easy to make." (bbei) Pfft... I knew you'd say that, honey. Anyway, let's have peach blossom wine and beer today, I feel like we have so much to talk about.

"Okay, Hisako, Alice."

"Eh!" x2

"The old man just sent me a message, saying that you should check the official website yourselves. Your match time, opponents, and themes have been released. Since you are not at school, I won't write to you."

"Huh?!" x2

Hisako and Alice were completely dumbfounded. Good heavens, how did this suddenly happen?! They were just chatting and slacking off, and suddenly the intensity increased so much?!

Hisako and Alice ran upstairs immediately, and Erina and the others also took out their phones to look at their phones. After a long while, Momoko Akane said blankly, "Oh my god... Momoko is so worried about Hisako's mental state."

"What's wrong?"

Momoko Akane swallowed hard and said, "In the quarterfinals, Hisako will face Hayama Akira, who scored 99 points, and the theme is... is... mutton..."

"Huh?!" xn

Sachi sighed and said, "It's really difficult. You all know that mutton has a natural gamey smell. You either need to remove the gamey smell and focus on the freshness, or you don't need to remove it all and use a lot of spices. And that Ye Shanliang's spice technique is far beyond that of ordinary students."

Gurefia nodded and said, "That's right, Hisako only has one path left: freshness. However, if the freshness level doesn't reach Hayama Akira's spice level, the chances of winning are very slim. After all, strong flavors can overshadow the light flavors, whether the judges are in the first or second round."

Kobayashi Rindou, sitting cross-legged, said, "It's not just Hisako; I also think Alice is in trouble. She's facing Yukihira Soma, and the first match was already stressful. Now the theme is bento. If she uses molecular gastronomy, she'll definitely lose. If she doesn't, her cooking skills might not be able to beat Yukihira Soma."

"How so?"

"A molecular gastronomy bento box. Putting aside everything else, Asuna, you guys often bring bento boxes to school. What do you think a molecular gastronomy bento box would look like?"

"Uh...I didn't expect that..."

"See? Soma Yukihira's family runs a regular set meal restaurant, but they're definitely very skilled at this kind of cooking. Add to that their impressive culinary skills and their quirky culinary ideas, and these two girls have probably met their toughest opponent yet..."

"This..."

Chapter 149 The Sisters' Teamwork and Hancock's Criticism (Please Subscribe~)

Just like Kobayashi Rindou and the others thought, Hisako panicked, and Alice was also thinking about how to apply molecular gastronomy to bento boxes.

However, this is a settled matter, and there's nothing they can do about it. But as we said at the beginning, they've already shown their progress, so they can just do their best in the upcoming competitions. Anyway, neither of them will be chefs, and the Elite Ten isn't that important.

Although that's what they said, their mindset will definitely change, and they'll be under a lot of pressure. However, this is a good thing for Lucifer and the others.

If Hisako isn't there, then only Fujimine Yukiko is unaware of the other world. So, if Fujimine Yukiko goes upstairs or leaves temporarily, then they will know what Shiraha did today and what Nami was talking about.

The group exchanged a quick glance, and then Yuno Gasai went straight to Yukiko Fujimine, who was engrossed in her phone, tugged at her arm, and said, "Yukiko...- ."

"Yuno, what's wrong?"

"Were you a very talented actor before?"

"Of course! I wouldn't say I'm a huge star, but I'm at least super popular! Yuno, you're not going to suddenly ask me for an autograph, are you?"

Yuno Gasai shook her head and said, "No, it's because I have a senior in college who is an actress. She's been having some problems lately, so I wanted to ask her some questions."

"Is it just acting experience?"

"Yes! There are also some ways to relieve stress."

"I actually have a unique perspective on this! Shall I tell you now?"

"Ah, no need for that now. Sister Zi and the others might come later, so..."

Lucifer waved his hand and said, "Yuno, Yukari and the others are all lazy, so you'd better ask them quickly. Klara and the others will be upstairs at night, so you can have a chat."

"Oh... well, Yukiko... let's go upstairs to talk."

"No problem! Let me tell you, while talent is very important in acting, mindset and attitude are equally crucial. When it comes to your work, the first thing is to respect and understand each other..."

After the two people left, Lucifer immediately asked excitedly, "Nami! Nami! Tell me, what happened today? What did your husband do?"

"Oh, let's talk about it when Hancock arrives. My husband did something incredible today; the whole ocean is probably going to explode. Just wait and see, maybe Hawkeye, Shanks, Ace, and Uncle Rayleigh will all be coming over in the next few days."

"You're driving me crazy! I'm asking you what happened, and you still won't tell me."

"The main thing is that you can't ask me about this. I only know the result. The ones who actually saw this scene were Little Fox and Gion-nee. Robin and I were shopping at the time."

"Tsk... Hancock, she's usually here early, why isn't she here today? Did she trip and fall and knock herself out?"

Pandemonica said softly, "Never mind, we'll find out sooner or later anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's just an hour or two. Let's wait a little longer. Nami insists on waiting for Hancock to arrive, so it seems to be related to Hancock."

"More than that! If Hancock knew, she'd probably burst into tears."

"Huh?" xn

The judge produced an iron chain from who-knows-where and said, "Nami, either you speak now, or you stop making things sound so fantastical, or you'll end up like Baphomet."

Nami's eyes twitched, and she covered her mouth without saying a word. Karina said with some doubt, "This chain looks so thin, and where did it come from?"

Lucifer chuckled and said, "This is just one of the chains... You can think of it as a representation; the real entity is not just large, but infinite and without end."

"Huh? This is outrageous! Who exactly are you people?"

Robin thought for a moment and said, "You must be the Demon King Lucifer that Nami mentioned."

"Oh? How did you guess?"

"Because compared to them, you have more distinctive features, more angular features, and we can sense your subtle aura and temperament. This kind of temperament cannot be faked; only naturally ambitious and strong women possess it. The more you gain, the more you conquer, and the higher your position, the more obvious it becomes."

"And you and that lady in the red dress over there, you both have this feeling, even if you act very easygoing, it's in your blood, so you must be that one."

Lucifer laughed and said, "Not bad! You're really smart. And I can tell that you're not just going along with Nami. You're genuinely interested in the stories Nami and Zoro told you and this world, so you remember them very well."

"Thank you for the compliment, but I don't know the specifics. And this person... your identities, and your worlds, Nami didn't tell me. She only said that you are very powerful, come from different worlds, and get along well. She only told me the details without introducing your identities."

"Yes, because Lucy and the others have a simpler way. It's tiring for me to explain it once, and it's definitely not as effective as if they introduced it themselves. Besides, Lucy can explain it to you in a flash, but I might have to talk for an entire afternoon!"

"In an instant?" x2

Karina was also puzzled. Just as she was thinking, she saw the two of them freeze at the same time, their shoulders trembling. A few minutes later, Robin covered his eyes and said with mixed feelings of surprise, "Unbelievable... I had imagined you guys to be very capable, but the result has obviously far exceeded my expectations."

Karina swallowed hard and said blankly, "Your family is terrifying! No wonder Gion-nee and the others were so worried before..."

"Worried?"

Momousagi sighed and said, "This is the same thing that Nami said we could only talk about when Hancock arrives. However, I hope you guys can calm down a bit when the time comes, and we can talk about it slowly then."

"Alright, alright, but the more you guys talk, the more we want Hancock to come! Why isn't she here yet?! Where did she go...?"

Chapter 150 Karina is drooling with envy, and Hancock is very anxious (Please subscribe~)

Yuno Gasai has been listening to Yukiko Fujimine's various acting insights without getting annoyed. She thinks she can really tell Mai Sakurajima what Yukiko Fujimine says, even though Mai Sakurajima is still at home pondering something.

Upon learning each other's identities, Karina and Robin were both a little reserved, but they quickly relaxed under the influence of the homey atmosphere. They started chatting, and since Karina and Robin were both very good-natured and had high emotional intelligence, they got along perfectly well.

"Mmm...it smells so good! What kind of dish is this...?"

Erina said earnestly, "Based on our understanding, this tastes like the braised beef stew that Nami ordered. It's delicious and goes very well with rice."

"What I'm more concerned about is how long until we can eat. It smells so good, I can't even imagine how delicious it will be."

Sachi thought for a moment and said, "Based on my husband's skill level, plus your cooking... it should be ready in about ten minutes, or maybe it will be done already. The main problem is that I don't know what some of the dishes are."

After enduring the aroma for two or three minutes, just as Karina was about to drool, Bai Yu pushed the food cart over. Karina immediately sat down obediently, but her eyes never left the food cart.

"So... the dishes for everyone: Nami, your braised beef stew; Tina, your hibiscus shrimp; Miss Karina, your drunken spare ribs; Gion, your three-cup chicken; Miss Robin, your crab roe tofu; Nochigo, your braised meat platter; and everyone's peach blossom wine, beer, and rice."

Looking at the fragrant and steaming dishes, even though they had been here twice before, Momousagi and Tina still swallowed hard. No, they had to go back and exercise, otherwise they might really ruin their faces. In their world, if a woman got fat, it wouldn't be as simple as just ruining her face.

Karina stared blankly at the dishes on the table, swallowed hard, and said, "This is so lavish... Mr. Shirayu! You're amazing!"

"Thank you for the compliment. Please enjoy your meal. Just call me if you need anything. Of course, you can also call Nami if she's willing to move over."

Nami puffed out her cheeks, glared at Bai Yu, and said, "Honey! I won't!"

Bai Yu just smiled and didn't say anything. He returned to his seat and looked at the book he had been reading recently. Beelzebub still didn't miss any opportunity to stick to Bai Yu and leaned over to read it together.

Karina swallowed hard, picked up her chopsticks, and looked at the platter of braised meats in front of her with some confusion. "This looks so plentiful," she said. "What are all these things?"

Nami glanced at it and said, "Oh... this contains dried sausage, dried tofu, braised beef, pig's head meat, pig's ear, braised liver, and honeycomb tripe. It's all for drinking with alcohol. I've had it several times during summer vacation, and basically, there's always one of these left over when we're eating and chatting."

"If Lucy and the others want to chat, two plates of this, some sashimi, and some random stir-fried dishes, and the whole group of them can eat, drink, and chat all night long."

Lucifer smacked his lips and said, "To be honest, it really goes well with alcohol. I really didn't expect that the second type of cooking I've made a breakthrough in besides desserts would be mixed dishes!"

"That's right!"

Just as Karina was about to speak, she saw Nami holding a bowl and saying irritably, "Aren't you the one who's starving?
