Chapter 98: Miraculous Cuisine (4/31)
Haruka City.
It is known as a leisurely strolling city, located between the sea and the mountains.
Chefs who come here still go to local restaurants to experience the differences in food caused by the regional environment, just like they did in Baitan City.
【You've come to Haruka City, and you can't wait to taste the local delicacy】
The seaside naturally relies on the sea to eat the sea, and pays more attention to the umami of the ingredients themselves than the heavy taste of the seasoning, so they often do not go through too complicated cooking techniques.
[You have tasted the mystery of umami, you and your Pokémon are very satisfied, and the level of cooking has increased]
Kashiwagi always felt like he was watching a food documentary when he saw the narration showing it.
Challenge the gym or something, just piggyback.
The chef who tasted the delicious food invited the chef there to compete in the cuisine as usual, but his actions became much more grounded than in Baitan City.
At least know how to ask the owner of the restaurant first and borrow from him.
Pity.
He is a nobody, neither a major figure in the world of training and cooking like Zhimi, nor is he a god of food and a god of food in the food world.
The chef of a popular restaurant has so much time to talk to him.
and was driven out again.
[You regret not being able to communicate with other chefs, and you decide to challenge the gym]
This gives the impression that the gym challenge can be cathartic.
- Actually, it is.
Kashiwagi sensed that the level of telekinesis of the duck seemed to be closely related to the mental stress of the chef.
Every time the chef encounters something unhappy and uncomfortable, the attack of the duck will always become much stronger, and compared to it, the water attribute move of the water attribute Pokémon system has no sense of existence.
[You came to the Yaoxiang Gym, and the owner of the Gym, Chaklo, accepted your challenge]
I saw the opposite battlefield in the field.
Da Duck used his spiritual power to whip the big rock snake as a whip, holding his head and croaking and screaming, as if he was shouting "let the world feel pain".
Simple and crude.
Neither the honey making machine nor the Big Stomach King diners had a chance to play.
【Your Duck has defeated the Great Rock Serpent】
【Your Duck defeats Baby Tyrannosaurus】
[You defeated the owner of the Haruka Incense Gym, Chaklow, and obtained the Rock Wall Badge]
Chaklow's strength earned Chaklow's admiration, and even more so for the chef's glowing dishes.
Although he is a rock climber, he has a great love for sweets, but he does not dare to eat more, and there have been news reports on TV while staring at the sweets in the window without moving.
The chef knew this, and deliberately used the sweetness of the three bees to make a glowing sweet for Chaclo that was not too caloric but would definitely satisfy his cravings - its glow was comparable to radiation, and Chaclo was wrong just by smelling it.
Bao Buqi's drug is measured in tons this time, which is really scary.
Most importantly.
[You learned about Chaklow's friendship with Shimi, the Four Heavenly Kings, through a TV show, hoping to get Zhimi's cooking level from the other party]
On the screen, the head of the little man who symbolizes Chaklow appears with the chef's head, followed by five stars.
After that, Zhimi appeared again, followed by a long list of stars.
Obviously, although Chaklow was impressed by the chef's sweet tooth, he was still able to give a very objective assessment.
[You realize that you are still very far away from Zhimi, and you decide to continue your journey in search of more perfect cooking skills (increase the dose)]
"Why is there a narrator who speaks with brackets?"
Kashiwagi felt that this side was a lot more skinny.
——
The chef departed from Route 10.
Soon, he came to the small town along the way - Shixiang Town.
There are many merchants selling all kinds of stones, and it is here that Kernie, the owner of the Gym in Sara City, obtained her Lucario Evolution Stone.
This made Kashiwagi wonder if the chef would get a keystone or something.
But he thought too much......
[You came to Shixiang Town, and heard that the rock cuisine here is very famous, so you rushed to the restaurant with excitement. 】
All right.
Restaurants are your forever home.
Kashiwagi sighed, although the chef does not have a Pokémon that can be mega at the moment, but mega is a regional specialty of Carlos, and mega is essential if you want to get excellent results in the regional tournament.
screen.
The chef tasted what is known as rock cuisine – the idea of baking ingredients on piping hot rocks, with each different rock giving the ingredients a special flavor.
Kashiwagi only thinks that this is caused by the shopkeeper's stone not being cleaned.
Suddenly.
The three bees beside the chef shuddered, and then they were shrouded in white light, and they were reborn.
【Your Three Bees Evolved into Queen Bees】
…… Evolved?
It's actually a female three bees, and I haven't seen this one fight? Collecting honey and eating delicious food evolved?
Kashiwagi is extremely suspicious that the chef's cooking is like magical candy, which has the power to increase the level of Pokémon, which makes the three bees accumulate under the excitement.
After a full meal.
The chef was satisfied with the challenge and his application was rejected again, and he was left to wander around the local stone market.
Kashiwagi's sense of anticipation was pulled up.
However.
[You saw a very special Pokémon at a stall, and you heard that this Pokémon has the power to ferment, so you bought it from the stall owner]
[You got the kettle, the fruit fermentation machine - the companion of the journey has increased]
Boy.
Kashiwagi never thought that instead of a keystone or a mega stone, the chef would get a new Pokémon in Shixiang Town.
Or a kettle.
And after getting a new Pokémon, the chef who has gained experience from stone cuisine leaves, and has no intention of continuing to wander around.
[You came to Road 11 and you started collecting ingredients]
The first thing a chef does when he goes out in the field is to gather all kinds of raw materials and wait for the noon and evening picnics.
As a diner who prostitutes every day, the little Kirbymon has exerted its magical power as a food radar, whether it is plant roots or fresh fruits and vegetables, it cannot escape its nose.
However, the "job" of the duck did not come down easily.
Because the road is by the sea, the chef often throws the duck into the sea, hoping that it will find some delicacies from the sea.
Of course.
Chefs don't always make glowing dishes, and sometimes if you misuse the wrong ingredients or don't recognize a certain ingredient, the glowing dishes will turn into deep purple or pitch-black mosaics, symbolizing death.
These chefs almost hit the street with a bite, but the little Kirbymon can eat it with relish.
Kashiwagi couldn't help but suspect that this guy would be the [Immunity] trait after evolving.
——
Sora City.
A city with mysterious stone legends.
But the chef clearly cares more about the local food than the mega stone, which can guarantee the strength of the trainer.
It's a pity that not all towns have extreme cuisines, and the flavor of Sara City is quite similar to that of Haruka City, and the chef has not gained much cooking experience from it.
The chef who was driven away by the boss was hit by a double blow and went to the Sara Gym to challenge.
[You challenged the owner of the Sola Gym, Kernie]
Kashiwagi was full of anticipation and thought that he would see MEGA evolution this time, but found that it didn't.
When Duck and Kirbymon go into battle and take down Kernie's Lucario, the narrator speaks:
[You defeated Kernie and interrupted her small goal of a hundred consecutive wins, much to Kearnie's frustration. To comfort Kernie, you decide to make a meal for her]
A hundred wins in a row?
Yes!
Was the original timeline before Ash's travels?
Kashiwagi remembered that Kernie had defeated a hundred trainers before heading to Shixiang to find Super Stone, and the chef interrupted her winning streak, proving that the timeline was going forward.
