Chapter 518: Elusa: I Want to Win the Championship with Dignity!
Kira didn't know why Elusa was here, but in this case, the reason didn't matter, and he just hoped that nothing would happen in the future.
On the stage, Elusa was wearing a delicate and hot lace cut-out kitchen dress, tied up her fiery red hair high, and held an 80-centimeter-long big spoon in front of the stove to concentrate on cooking.
Even though she wasn't wearing armor, she was still feminine and heroic, and she looked like she was treating the arena as a battlefield.
Thinking that when she was in Kirtina before, Elusa also participated in the 'dessert contest' without hesitation as now, Kira couldn't help but secretly complain, "This guy is really ...... I like to go up in any competition......"
"But I'm the same!"
In this regard, Kira has a clear understanding of herself, after all, he also likes these events, otherwise he wouldn't always hold competitions, isn't it all for the fun?
"Since Elusa is here, Natsu should be there too?"
Thinking of this, Kira swept her gaze from the stage to the stage, and finally found the familiar figures in a corner of the crowd.
The restless Natsu, the drooling Harpy, and Lucy, Gray, Wendy, Charlulu and others, there are a lot of them, in addition, there is Brandish who arrives with them as a tour guide, and Timaria who looks no different from the third person who inserts Lucy and Brandish, but is still trying to hook up with Wendy's little Lori.
"How did the two of them get mixed up with Elusa and the others?" Kira was amazed.
At this moment, several people noticed Kira's gaze and turned to greet him one after another, with a warm attitude, just like in the guild.
However, seeing their attitude, Kira's heart jumped, and a very bad feeling came over her - the last time she felt this way was when her small treasury was spent by Urrutia a few days ago.
After waving, nodding, and smiling stiffly at Natsu and the others, Kira's sleepiness suddenly disappeared, and he mustered up his spirit to pay attention to the changes around him, which was already the limit of what he could do now!
This is the Albarez Empire, not Magnolia! The people here don't have the slightest understanding of the destructive power of the magician of Fairy Tail, and the arena is not well prepared, in case Natsu or Elusa and Gray are careless, and they make a big move on the scene, that scene ......
Gee...... The city can't afford it!
Elusa was one of the 77 people who had passed the first five levels, and at this moment she also saw that Dukira had found herself, so she turned her head and gave him a shallow smile.
Looking through the air dozens of meters between the two, Kira immediately received a silent word from Elusa: "Don't cheat!" I want to win the championship with dignity and win the honor with my real skills!
”
Since returning from the last dessert competition, Elusa has to go to Magnolia's most famous restaurant every three days to learn, and at the same time, she has been practicing her knife skills and improving her cooking skills by leaps and bounds, so she has full confidence in this competition.
As the 'Fairy Queen', you will never fall in the same place twice.
With real skills?
The corners of Kira's mouth twitched, and she roared in her heart: "What are you kidding?!" How do you, a half-cooking enthusiast who is a magician, compare to a group of chefs who are immersed in cooking?! ”
But after thinking about it, Elusa can come here, it seems that she still has some ability, and this also shows that the chefs in several nearby cities are probably not of high level.
From this point of view, the level of this first God's glory seems to be a bit big......
In the previous five levels, the topics were voted by the audience, which involved a large range, and it is difficult for the chef industry to be comprehensive, so there are many who are eliminated.
This is actually not difficult to understand, for example, some chefs are good at cooking seafood and advance to the second level, but they may stop at the third level because they are not good at cooking meat, which does not mean that they are not good at cooking, but they just happened to encounter a field that they are not good at, and they are unlucky.
But the remaining chefs who can pass five levels in a row are undoubtedly experienced in a hundred battles, even if they do not surpass others in one aspect, at least the average line of each type is qualified.
If you use learning as an analogy, then these five levels are to eliminate those who are biased. Even if a student can get a perfect score in mathematics, he will not be able to pass the test if he fails English.
In contrast, the next three levels are to select the talent with the highest single subject.
Kira came as the mayor's assistant representative Erin, an official figure, and the main person in charge of this competition, so naturally she was the first to come up with the question.
"Ahem...... My title is 'Ramen', and the time limit is also 20 minutes! ”
If you want to ask which anime is the most famous, it must be the Ramen of the Hokage next door, and the ramen in the world of Demon Tail is not mediocre, but can only be said to have no bright spots.
But it's no wonder that this is not a gourmet fan, and ramen does not provide spiritual or material needs for some people in the protagonist group, so naturally it is not famous.
In ramen, dough, knife skills, soup, and seasoning are the four most important things, and this competition uses ingredients provided by suppliers, even if some of the chefs have a magical secret recipe handed down from their ancestors, so it is the most basic test.
Soon, the hot ramen noodles are out of the pot, the boiled noodles are slender and tender, the chefs are exposed to the air to cool them thoroughly, drain the original juice and pour it into a bowl, add a few pieces of meat, fish plates and eggs, add spices such as green onion and coriander, and finally pour in the essence of ramen, the soup.
The rich aroma suddenly caused the audience to howl - it was a stomach howl - and Kira screamed the loudest.
At this time, Kira's heart was almost moved to tears: finally ...... Finally there's something to eat!
He thought that as a judge today, he would definitely be able to eat the dishes of the famous chefs around him, so he came over without even eating breakfast, who would have thought that from the beginning of the competition to the present, his stomach has not been full!
Although he tried a lot of dishes before, in order to maintain his image, he only ate a small bite of seafood, poultry, meat, fried rice, and fruits every time, and he was not full at all!
In order to fill the emptiness of the stomach pouch, I had to make 'ramen', which is a very important thing in every bite.
An indescribable warmth spreads from the stomach pouch to the whole body with the soup on the ramen, which is a wonderful feeling of drinking sweet springs in the desert, eating hot pot in the snow, and encountering light in the dark.
After eating the ramen, the power continued to pour out of her body, and Kira couldn't help but smile with satisfaction as she indulged in the happiness of being hungry and satisfied.
However, on the other side......
"I'm so sorry that you've been eliminated!"
The food assistant looked curiously at Elusa's bright red hair, but her mouth said what seemed to be the most ruthless thing in the world.
"Why...... ...... way"
Hearing the news that she had been eliminated, Elusa's whole body was instantly petrified, and her expression of disbelief and surprise was fixed on the pretty face stained with two drops of brown soup, and she was speechless for a long time.
Off the stage, Brantish and Timaria are laughing, Natsu and Gray are sighing, Lucy, Wendy, and Charlulu are lamenting, and Harpy is crying.
"The judges think that you don't have enough control over the heat, you see, the noodles here are all connected, this piece is not cooked, such food is not qualified!"
"No...... Unqualified......" Elusa muttered softly, losing her strength and falling backwards.
"Yes, it doesn't fit...... Hey?! What's wrong with you?! Doctor!
There are no doctors!
”
Elusa didn't hold out until the doctor arrived and left, although it was a pity that she didn't win the championship, but since she was eliminated, she had to admit it, and her 'fairy queen' was not a figure she couldn't afford to lose.
In the uncontrollable laughter of Gray and the others, Alusa was reluctantly pulled off the stage. Before she left the field, she cast a resentful glance at Kira.
Kira, who was struggling to eat noodles, suddenly shuddered.
"How do you feel a chill on your back...... Forget it, it's still important to fill your stomach!
