Aoba nodded.
The enhancement of his super taste ability allows him to taste details he had never noticed before.
In other words, with the help of super taste, Aoba's culinary skills have successfully entered the superhuman realm!
Upon hearing Aoba's assessment, Hisako frowned and her expression turned serious, stating directly:
"It's already a great honor to be able to taste Lady Erina's cooking, how could it possibly be considered 'not bad'!?"
Are you questioning the strength of the Elite Ten?
The voice just fell
"Fei Sha!"
Erina turned and stared at Hisako.
"The manager's cooking skills are amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
"Much stronger than me!"
"Apologize to the store manager!!"
Even Erina, who was kidnapped by Rize Kamishiro, was moved by Aoba's cooking.
At certain times, it remains the unquestionable tongue of God.
"Sorry……"
When Erina insisted on an apology, Hisako had no choice but to bow her head and admit her mistake to Aoba.
"fine."
Aoba shook her head.
Being questioned is not a big deal.
"Hahaha, there are very few people in the world who possess the talent that Erina can praise!"
Senzaemon Nakiri laughed loudly, looking at Aoba with admiration:
"Manager, if possible, please come to Totsuki!"
"It is home to nearly 90 percent of the world's top chefs."
"For a chef surviving alone in the culinary wilderness, finding like-minded companions is absolutely essential!"
Grandpa... he actually recruited the shop manager?
Erina Nakiri looked at Aoba expectantly.
Although I've already been rejected once before, what if the store manager agrees?
"Feel sorry……"
Aoba calmly shook her head at the three people's burning gazes.
It seems that Totsuki, which is hailed as a chef's paradise, is not as good as this izakaya.
"you……"
Hisako's eyes widened as she glared angrily at Aoba.
This is an invitation from the Supreme Commander of Totsuki Academy, known as the 'Demon King of Food'!
This guy actually refused like that!?
Chapter 10 Once Upon a Time? A Young Girl's Mind is Hard to Decipher!
"Is that so?"
Senzaemon nodded, his mind clear as a mirror.
He was not surprised by Aoba's rejection.
Many of the world's top chefs have their own philosophies to varying degrees in order to find their own path.
This is how Nakiri Azami is...
Seiichiro Saiba was the same way...
"If you change your mind later, you are welcome to come to Totsuki anytime."
Senzaemon handed Aoba a business card.
His name was printed on it.
"besides……"
Followed by.
The silver-haired old man stood up from his seat, his tall and upright figure standing out conspicuously next to Erina.
He solemnly lowered his majestic and proud body.
"Thank you so much for saving Erina!"
Erina and Hisako, who were standing nearby, also bowed at a 90-degree angle simultaneously: "Thank you!"
This scene left Aoba somewhat helpless.
Do people in this country all like to bow?
However, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.
He nodded slightly, just as earnestly:
"No need for thanks, Erina is a very good girl."
"And perhaps seeing her efforts made me want to show off my skills too."
Done.
Aoba glanced at Erina with an appreciative smile before returning to the kitchen.
The three were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Lady Erina..."
Hisako looked at Erina blankly, wondering what Aoba meant by wanting to show off his skills.
Senzaemon and Erina, on the other hand, looked expectant.
"Just a moment."
With the commander-in-chief speaking, Hisako had no choice but to remain silent.
……
In the back kitchen.
Aoba deftly cracked the eggs, poured in the oil, and lit the fire...
Having cooked tens of thousands of dishes, I have mastered all the techniques and skills.
But perhaps it was his heightened sense of taste that gave him the illusion.
He felt as if he had returned to his apprenticeship, practicing until the wee hours of the morning to perfect a dish.
He seems to have rediscovered that flow state where he is completely absorbed in cooking.
Outside the pot, sparks flew everywhere!
Inside the pot, a golden-yellow color appeared!
With the final addition of vibrant green scallions, the dish is finally complete!
It's done cooking!!!
In less than two minutes.
Aoba handed the packaged food to Erina.
"Give."
"Thank you, Mr. Manager."
Erina accepted the dish with great anticipation.
Although she didn't see what it was, the strong smell alone was enough to convince her!
"Let's go."
Sennaemon smiled and took out a stack of yen and placed it on the table.
"Manager, this is Erina's meal payment."
"We'll come again next time we have the chance."
After saying that, he left with Erina and Hisako.
Aoba looked at the stack of yen on the table and smiled.
As expected of the Food Demon King of the Far Moon Group, he has a firm grasp on interpersonal relationships.
-
late at night.
Time passed bit by bit.
Only Aoba and Kasumigaoka remained in the izakaya.
Kasumigaoka lay on the table, making cute, snoring noises.
It seems that the child is not going to wake up.
Aoba leaned against the wooden door of the izakaya, gazing at the stars in the sky.
I'm carefully counting down the years since I opened the shop.
Although there aren't many customers, it's enough to cover the izakaya's expenses.
In addition, there are sometimes some very generous guests.
For example, Karasu and Senzaemon contributed 200,000 yen today.
