The last time Asuna came, she was wearing a simple garment made of linen.

His eyes were disgraced and desperate, as if he would commit suicide by cutting his wrists in the next second.

This time, she was wearing a white knight's uniform embroidered with a red ribbon as a decoration, and a thin sword hanging from her waist, and the whole person looked heroic.

Some of the mercenaries couldn't help but whistle, and even the eyes of the few female adventurers over there looked at her with admiration.

What has changed the most is her eyes, which are full of unparalleled confidence and determination, and are full of charm.

If she was still a village girl last time, this time she has completely transformed into a goddess.

More than half of the eyes of the entire restaurant were attracted by her, which is the best proof of this.

"Boss, I'm here again."

The crisp voice and soft tone make people feel healed.

This time, Asuna actually took the initiative to greet Qian Chen.

Qian Chen couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled with relief.

The last time he cooked for her, he was incredibly focused.

As he cooks more and more, Qian Chen gradually discovers that the more focused the chef is when making the food, the richer the emotions he pours out, and the stronger the ability of the chef to impress the food.

Generally speaking, the ability of food to impress diners is affected by four aspects: the quality of the chef's heart, the level of the chef's heart, the chef's concentration during the meal, and the willpower of the other party.

For the time being, everything else is quantitative, but the chef's concentration in cooking is manageable.

To put it simply, you can use 'kitchen heart' as 'condiment', and concentration is the amount of 'condiment'.

The more 'condiments' you add, the more obvious it will be for diners.

Last time, Qian Chen saw from Asuna's eyes that she had suicidal tendencies, and had to increase the amount of drugs... Ahem, the injection of 'kitchen heart' has been increased.

Now it seems to be working out pretty well.

rescued a lost lamb and let her return to her love of food, which made Qian Chen feel a great sense of accomplishment.

What Qian Chen didn't know was that it was precisely because he drugged too violently (crossed out) and poured too much into the kitchen, and the effect was too good.

Asuna, the future good wife and mother, was directly trained by him to become a top foodie.

Asuna's world is a game world called 'Sword Art Online', and as a next-generation online game, this game has a high degree of freedom.

Cooking, on the other hand, is a type of support skill, and there is no fixed recipe, so it is all up to the player to develop it themselves.

As a result, Asuna not only loves to eat, but also recruited a group of enthusiasts to form a huge informal guild 'Food Research Society'.

The members of this guild come from all over the world, and it can almost be said that some of the major guilds in the game are members of this guild, and the number of them is huge, which can be described as the largest guild in the 'Sword Art Online'.

In addition to strategy games, their biggest hobby is to study the combination and practice of various ingredients in the game.

It's a game, as long as it's an edible ingredient, there's nothing they don't dare to eat, including the boss on each floor.

A certain behind-the-scenes boss is so angry that he wants to flip the table.

You're playing a game of death! Die? Lose? Swim? Play! Not a casual game! Can you be serious! Professional point! This makes me a game developer very shameful!

Here Qian Chen chatted with Asuna for a while, and he found that Asuna was obviously much more cheerful than the last time she came.

Sure enough, his choice of using cooking to influence others is the right path!

And after chatting, he discovered a fact that surprised him immensely.

Asuna doesn't seem to be interested in cooking and cooking.

Qian Chen was originally just talking about her recent situation with her, and chatting and chatting about cooking.

So Qian Chen found an opportunity and asked tentatively.

"Asuna, if I want to invite you to my restaurant as a cook, would you do it?"

"Okay."

Qian Chen originally thought that Asuna would at least hesitate, but he didn't expect to agree so quickly.

The surprise came too suddenly, so that Qian Chen didn't react for a while.

"You, you mean you agreed!?"

"Yes. But I also have a small condition. ”

A hint of cunning flashed in Asuna's eyes.

"You say."

"You have to teach me how to cook, and I have to use the ingredients at will."

"Deal!"

Qian Chen readily agreed.

Asunati's requests are entirely within the purview of a chef.

Moreover, the ingredients of the restaurant in another dimension are completely provided by the system, and the supply is unlimited, so there is no waste at all. (Poor Miss Sakiya, I hope she was abducted by Qian Chen, and after knowing the truth, she will not insert a few knives in Qian Chen)

"Without further ado, let's take office today. I've been busy with strategies these days, and I don't have time to cook, and I feel that my skills are rusty. ”

"Huh!?"

Qian Chen couldn't help but show a surprised expression, are the young ladies so active now!?

"Why, isn't the chef welcome?"

Asuna blinked.

"Welcome! Of course welcome! Hands up welcome! ”

(Qian Chen couldn't help but burst into tears in his heart: The restaurant finally has someone who can help me share the work!) o(╥﹏╥)o）

At this time, the system spoke directly.

- Do you hire Asuna (Asukina Yuuki) as a chef at a restaurant in another dimension?

- There are two types of employment:

One. Hired on a temporary basis, the host only needs to spend 20 positive points each time.

Two. Permanently employed, the host needs to pay a one-time payment of 2000 praise points.

Let's talk about two different modes. ’

Qian Chen hurriedly said in his heart.

- Temporary employment, as the name suggests, is a temporary worker, and there is no guarantee at all. Similarly, the other person can refuse to help the chef when the restaurant is open.

Qian Chen: ...

- Perpetual employment, when the restaurant is opened, the time of the other party's world is frozen, and the chef will be forcibly teleported to the restaurant.

At the same time, the lives of the chefs will also be protected by the restaurant. In the event of a deadly danger, the character will be teleported directly to the restaurant, and the identity will be automatically created in the real world, allowing it to live in the host's world.

Qian Chen immediately understood.

To put it simply, permanent employment is equivalent to buying a super insurance for the cook, which can directly save your life.

However, after the protection mechanism is triggered, the chef will not be able to return to his original world.

This is a lifesaver for those in a war-torn world.

It is also a guarantee for Qian Chen, in case the chef he worked so hard to cultivate is killed or seduced away by some bastard, wouldn't he have to be re-cultivated?

At this time, the system added another sentence.

- Note: If you choose the second option, permanent employment model, the target must have the highest recognition of the restaurant.
