Act VIII

The sudden arrival of visitors broke the solemn atmosphere in the hall, and Ed hurried to greet him as if he had seen a savior.

"Your Excellency, why are you here?"

He saw that Liliana was not alone, the armored knight and the beast-eared girl from the previous day were there, and at the same time, they were followed by another little girl with black hair.

"Because I want to enhance my relationship with my friends, I want to come and go, and only the taste of your place can satisfy her picky mouth, so I came here, did I disturb you?"

Liliana saw the empty hall, and she saw the table of Houston and Marlos.

"Well, no, no. ”

Ed wished that Liliana would come over to relieve the siege, and at this moment he was even more fanning the flames, so he brought them to the table in Houston and opened his mouth to introduce.

"This is Houston, the owner of the three-star restaurant Tongue of God, and Chef Marlos, and this is ......"

Before Ed could finish his sentence, Houston rudely interrupted him.

"Ed, you don't need to make those false things, your restaurant is useless, I really don't know who gave you the qualification to participate in the audition, it seems that he is blind, or, what else did you use?"

He stood up and saw Liliana and the strangely dressed man behind her.

Houston only felt that Liliana was a little familiar, but she was not a famous person, and thought about it for a long time, but to no avail.

Marlos glanced at Liliana, and although she thought that the woman was extremely beautiful, she didn't pay much attention to it.

Ed was also happy when he saw the performance of the two, after all, the Tongue of the Gods had only been in the Rainbow Tower for twenty years, and the last time Liliana returned here was more than twenty-five years ago, and it was quite normal that the two of them had not seen Liliana.

"You are?"

Houston instinctively felt a different aura from each other, and these four people were different, although they had converged a lot, but they also faintly revealed a sense of oppression.

"I'm the blind guy who recommended this restaurant to the audition. ”

Liliana said, her voice flat as water.

"Uh......"

Houston was momentarily speechless.

In addition to the members of the high-level council, the special food critic of the "Mage Daily" is able to obtain the recommendation qualification, no matter who has a great influence on the catering industry, and the woman standing in front of her is really the recommender of this restaurant?

Houston preferred to believe it, he looked at Liliana, then at Eddard, and then at Eddard before continuing, his voice a little more low-key.

"I mean, this restaurant is not stable, so it doesn't deserve to be auditioned, and nothing else. ”

Hearing Houston's soft words, Ed was very happy, and his originally solemn face softened a little.

"Then we'll take our leave. ”

Houston thought that the purpose of this trip had been achieved anyway, and there was no need to entangle with Ed any longer, so he pulled Marlos and wanted to leave.

"It's hard to eat, Houston, you don't have to hide it. ”

At this time, Marlos was not convinced at all, and spoke, looking directly at Liliana.

Marlos prides himself on being a culinary genius, but now he is only twenty years old, but he is already a three-star chef, and his skills have been praised by most food critics, even the adults of the High Council.

And since a year ago, he argued with a food critic and ended up slapping the other person in the face with his cooking skills, and this pride has become even stronger.

For Marlos, the one who can't appreciate his own food is an idiot of taste!

When his words came out, Ed secretly rejoiced in his heart, but he didn't expect the other party to hit the muzzle of the gun himself.

No, this is not the muzzle, it's the muzzle, the muzzle of the main gun of a floating battleship.

"Oh, then I want to know, what's delicious? Can you make it for me?"

Liliana was interested, she had heard of the Tongue of God's restaurant, which had become famous in recent years, but she hadn't had time to taste it due to her itinerary, and now that she had met the other party's chef, Liliana really wanted to take this opportunity to taste the other party's craftsmanship.

She didn't think too much about it, whether it was the arrogant attitude of the other party, the conflict between them and Ed, or the result of the selection, Liliana just wanted to eat delicious food to comfort her empty stomach.

However, Liliana's words seemed completely provocative to the other party.

"Just do it!"

With no place to vent his anger, Malos stood up and glanced in the direction of the kitchen.

"Lend me the kitchen. ”

Ed couldn't refuse, he didn't expect things to come to this point, so he could only nod and watch as Marlos walked into his kitchen.

Liliana sat down with a few other people and looked at Malos, who was constantly busy in the kitchen, with interest.

In Ed's dining room, there is a section of the kitchen that is displayed in front of the diners with a clear glass wall, which is also a setting to increase the pleasure of eating, and at this moment, Marlos is cooking at the same workstation.

He saw his fingers run over the hilt of the row of knives, and from it he picked out a small and delicate sharp knife, and then just glanced at it, he picked out one of the several ice fish, and the knife in his hand flew with a dizzying speed.

"It's a very skillful technique, and it avoids breaking the internal organs of the fish and damaging the flesh, which requires a lot of familiarity with the icefish. ”

Liliana watched Marlos' movements and commented.

"Heck, it's an interesting way to debon, completely separating two parts of the meat that are slightly different, and it seems like a perfectionist...... It's rare to use this spice to treat fish. ”

Hearing Liliana's comments, Ed was a little crying and laughing, he originally expected Liliana to help him breathe, but now it seems that she is more praise for Marlos?

Marlos is still busy, and he operates three pots at the same time, cooking different parts of the ice fish in three ways: frying, stewing, and pan-frying, showing extraordinary culinary talent.

Finally, after a short wait, Marlos asked the waiter to serve three plates of dishes.

"Icefish is a special fish of the North Olympic Federation, which cruises between freshwater and seawater every year, has a unique meat quality, and is a delicacy that many diners are eager for. ”

Marlos triumphantly introduced his dish, looked at Liliana, and then asked the waiter to lift the silver lid on the three dishes.
