Chapter.40 Cooking Competition

“That’s not true!”

Leain Saint was startled and fell down in a sweat, and at the same time, Leain Deren and Leain Saren both fell flat on their faces.

In a territory, the lord is the king.

In a status society, the lord’s orders are law. Until a while ago, Count Belhel was the one who took the money and went along with it, but the situation has changed. So face confiscation. That is the specialty of nobles.

“Who gave money to the head of the market association?”

When I asked the other judges, they all trembled and pointed at Leain Deren at the same time.

“My lord! “That thing!”

Surprised, Leain Deren raised his head from where he was lying down and tried to make an excuse.

“Please save my life!”

“Judges, listen.”

“Yes, my lord!”

Count Belhel calmed down his anger a little. First of all, the problem is not to offend.

As soon as I realized that there was no need to explode and cut off the money line, I changed my face slightly and called the judges.

Because it’s best if you don’t get offended and just quietly go somewhere else.

“Right now, judge fairly based on ability. So bring back the results! He said it clearly. Follow the taste of the dish thoroughly! Do you understand?”

“Oh, I understand!”

The judges were shaking and rushed to the judging table to score again. Everyone was in a cold sweat.

***

As a result.

According to a fair decision, the eastern branch of Merli took first place. The lord only told him to judge fairly and did not pay any attention. But since I had already tried the dish, I knew the outcome.

On behalf of the head of the market association, the judge with the next highest rank went in front of the people and tried each skewer, filmed the food, and explained the taste.

As he talked at length about the harmony of textures, the people watching began to become very curious.

Thanks to this, my curiosity grew, but the first day of the festival ended like that. Since they couldn’t taste it, people’s curiosity grew even more.

Leain Deren was so angry at this result that he began throwing furniture and decorations in the house indiscriminately.

“How much money has that bastard, Count Belhel, earned from the company? He’s suddenly acting like that! “You fucking bastard!”

Quang!

While the decorations were falling to pieces, Leain Seren was talking along with him next to him.

“Iknow, right. Aren’t you crazy? “Did you suddenly pass out while eating?”

“I can not understand it. I do not understand. “I just don’t understand!”

“Your father didn’t tell you to do that, right?”

“How can my father move Count Belhel? All I can do is just observe. “Didn’t you see me really nervous earlier?”

“That’s right. “It was ridiculous.”

“Damn, I’m so ridiculous! Either I’m dirty and born a noble! Damn it!”

Leain Deren started pouring alcohol into his mouth while grinning.

“Why on earth did the guys I sent back then fail? Where has everyone gone? “What happened?”

“It looks like they hired not only a chef but also a bodyguard, but… It seems like they are doing some clever things like that when raising sales at the Merly branch. “Aren’t you planning to become Count Belhel’s concubine because you like him?”

“That won’t be it. Then you must have told him to pull this out right away, so you would have gone crazy like that? “Anyway, it’s a big deal as it is.”

“Then, since people are probably guarding you right now, why don’t you go to the restaurant and ruin all the ingredients? It will take quite some time to prepare again. “If you participate late in the afternoon, you won’t be able to beat our sales!”

When Leain Saren, who is said to be a tactician, expressed his opinion, Leain Deren began to agree.

“Is that good? Send someone immediately! No, I might fail again, so I’ll go myself. “Choose just a few strong kids.”

“I’ll go too!”

In this way, the siblings led their men and moved in front of the eastern branch of Merli at dawn.

“Is there anyone?”

“yes. “There was no one there.”

“okay. good.”

Leain Deren approached Merli’s restaurant while smiling evilly.

“There must be something prepared for tomorrow. “Burn everything.”

“yes!”

And I looked around.

“I’m glad you’re not guarding the restaurant like you said.”

“You must be intoxicated by the afterglow of victory. In the afterglow of a fortunate victory due to the lord’s whim! “Maybe he took them all to protect himself?”

“Hehe, that was our last hope.”

“yes. By the time you prepare the ingredients again, sales are already irreversible! Ho ho ho.”

“I’m going back after confirming that the fire has spread from here.”

Leain Deren, pretending to be cautious, came out to the front of the building and observed the situation.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

However, an explosion was suddenly heard at the Merly Branch, where no one was apparently present, and it pierced the roof, sending everyone flying into the sky.

No one came out.

“What is this? “You mean an explosion?”

Leain Deren and Leain Saren should have been astonished.

Are you saying they even planted explosives?

The two people blinked in disbelief. It’s so detailed. I thought this was nonsense.

***

Impressing Count Belhel was effective. Count Belhel is a man who saved Lulin from almost dying while talking to him during the war, and after that he participated in the battlefield without even being able to say anything.

After remembering that he was the lord of this city, honestly, it was as if my worries about the festival disappeared.

And as expected, it took first place.

Liscent couldn’t help but believe it, but he couldn’t believe the result and was so happy that he was jumping around.

And even now, I can’t calm my excitement.

The only thing I’m concerned about is whether it’s the excitement or the fact that things are in a mess.

“Why on earth did I become so covered in scars in just one day? “Have you been attacked by the Leains?”

“Oh no… !”

Yeah, there’s no way you’ll get attacked. We have put in place protection measures.

“I was running around because I liked being alone, but I kept falling… no! I didn’t fall! This… So, it’s a wound of glory!”

While explaining why he got hurt, he suddenly changes his tone.

In the end, I ran wild and bumped into it again and again, and it ended up like that. Anyone who sees you will think you are suffering from domestic violence.

“But will people really come?”

“That’s natural. Imagine you are an ordinary citizen. Yesterday, the judges praised it as being a special dish, so people couldn’t help but flock to it. Besides, people are almost always weak at rankings like this. It’s natural to want to taste it first. “I also say the same thing.”

“I guess so, right? I still can’t believe it. “Your brother must have bribed the judges, so how did you come in first place?”

“Well, isn’t that because you recognized the taste? “Justice will triumph.”

“… Umm. I think it has something to do with Count Belhel’s brief visit! According to my research, the lord is not a very fair person… .”

“I did something, but it’s a secret. In any case, the truth is that Count Belhel suddenly disliked injustice and ordered a fair evaluation.”

“I don’t know… What happened? “Now that I think about it, I think I’m a greater person than I thought, since I can take a wizard with me as I please.”

“That’s not it. “I am an ordinary person.”

“What are you talking about! It’s not normal! But thanks to you, I achieved what I wanted… . Thank you for that. But it’s not a revenge you achieved on your own… . Something.”

“That is also wrong. I said this before, right? You’ve achieved something by running a good restaurant, right? I only helped because they ruined it, so that’s it. It’s just that the results that should have been obtained were obtained late. Shouldn’t we use this as an opportunity to grow further? “Why don’t you relieve your anger by becoming someone better than me when you’re my age?”

“That… It’s good! Speaking of which, what about the wizard? Are you sleeping again?”

“Don’t worry about that guy. “I am a free spirit.”

“Because you’re a wizard, you must be a free spirit!”

Licent agreed.

He seems to have realized that I have a secret, but he doesn’t seem to have any intention of digging into it.

I guess he has that kind of personality, so I helped him out more.

So we started grilling skewers diligently. Licent has become quite accustomed to the sight of flipping skewers. It’s almost plausible.

“Let’s see… “Then can you please pick that up for me?”

“yes!”

While doing so, two uninvited guests appeared in front of us. He is grinning a lot, but the dark circles under his eyes are very dark, as if he didn’t sleep well.

“you… ! you… ! “Recent!”

He had the appearance of a complete zombie.

What a brat pointing a cocky finger.

Are you unable to admit defeat and come to make a final struggle?

But Licent remained calm. Answer the siblings in a calm voice.

“Why are you doing that?”

Of course, it was Saren and Darren who exploded. Darren screamed.

“you you! What’s wrong with you? “This is real!”

I got annoyed by watching it, so I interrupted by gesturing for them to get out of the way.

“You two are noisy. “Is this a disruption to business?”

“What’s wrong? How dare you!”

Then this time he glares at me. It was just funny, so I laughed. And then he handed over the skewers he was grilling to the two people.

“The reason we won yesterday was because of the taste of the skewers. Would you like to try it? Please try it and rate it. I will accept harsh comments kindly. If there is anything I need to fix, please tell me.”

“Hmph, this must taste like messy trash!”

As Leain Seren said that, he brought the skewer to his mouth. It seems like the intention is to taste it and criticize it.

Next to me, Leain Deren also ate a skewer with the same look on his face.

If you want to give a bad review, you have to pretend to have eaten something first.

“Yes, I ate it! There is no other taste like this! worst… “Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!”

“This…” “My dear!”

The siblings started twisting their bodies at the same time.

“My advice would be to go back and have something to drink. Or are you dead?”

The two people were speechless. It was natural that I couldn’t speak because my mouth was burning.

“Aaaah!”

In the end, he screamed and ran away. Licent asked me about the unexpected result.

“What are you doing? “What did you give me just now?”

“I gave him the spicy skewers that Licent ate back then. No, I used hotter peppers than that at that time. The devil’s spicy taste that can kill you! “If I ate something this spicy, I would probably come to my senses.”

Then Licent was shocked and broke into a cold sweat, probably remembering that taste.

“I’m someone you really shouldn’t make an enemy of… “It’s kind of scary that there was a time when everyone was your enemy!”

“So you don’t like this result now?”

“Oh no! So good! It feels like flying! Did you just see the expression? “A ten-year-old problem has been relieved!”

“Well, I tried to find fault with the taste and ended up getting hurt, so that’s right.”

“Really!… thank you.”

“Oh, you admit it honestly?”

“Being thankful is being thankful.”

Licent began to smile brightly. It looked like he was smiling sincerely, so I was embarrassed.

“excuse me… .”

Someone spoke to us like that. So I turned my head.

“Eh?”

“Huhuhuhuh?”

Licent and I blinked in surprise at the same time.

I expected it, but did you think it would be like this?

“Since when do you start selling the stuff you’re baking now?”

The person who called us asked a question with a face full of anticipation, as if he was a guest who had seen the cooking event yesterday.

“Oh yeah. of course… “We’re selling it now.”

“That’s right!”

We hastily prepared for business.

The customer was not just that one person. The reason we were surprised was because there was a long line all the way to the entrance of the festival site.

In particular, today is the last day of the festival and the last day of the special holiday.

I heard that it was the day with the most people.
