16 "16 ""VS Gourmet Brave""" (1/2)

Ho, this is great . Red Dragon Meat Seasoned with Lemon Dragon Fruit, Queen Pineapple Salad and Live Sashimi of Sea Slug Kraken . That's as good as last year's winner, John Freslin. This year's ingredients and flavors are even better than last year's.

The lord sips the sumptuous food served to him with an exclamation of admiration, and the gastronomic group members around him.

By the way, as for the gourmet group members, ”U-Ma-Yi-Zo-Oh! That's all I've heard from somewhere else.

Well, even if it's not that, you can definitely tell that the food is good just by looking at it from a distance.

Many diners have presented their dishes, but John Freestand's dishes lightly surpass them.

In fact, the dishes served so far have been scored, and most of them were rated 5 or 6. At most, it was a seven or eight.

But the score served at John Fleshtrans is 9.8. That's a de facto winning number.

By the way, the owner of John Fleshtrang is laughing as if to say, ”What about you, John Fleshtrang?

Next to him is the gourmet hero, standing quietly with his eyes still closed.

That boy is so quiet, is he sleeping?

Well, be that as it may, it's time for us to go.

And finally, our first participation of the year!　It used to be a modest little diner, but the recent improvement in the quality of ingredients has made some food connoisseurs wince, and the smiling face of the owner and daughter of the restaurant's founder is secretly making her a growing fan club!　A representative of the common people's restaurant Mina Diner!

Mina looks nervous and nervous as the announcer introduces her.

However, I put my hand on her shoulder and posed with my thumb.

Encouraged by this, she smiled and brought the food she had prepared in front of the lord and all the judges.

Meh, the menu is jack-o'-lantern soup. Devil Carrot Soup with Mandragora Flowers. Cockatrice with killer plant sauce. Grilled entree with cockatrice.

All first-class ingredients from our home. The mandragora with flowers was made possible through the courtesy of Dora-chan, who gave me a flower that was attached to the head of the mandragora.

While the main body of the mandragora is better tasting, the flowers were also edible and tasted great.

The only problem is that it takes a few weeks to grow out of the plant once it's harvested, so we can't eat it that often.

First, the lord and the other judges eat the soup and flowers.

They must have exceeded your expectations at that point. You can't help but let out an exclamation of admiration and eat it all.

Then, you'll continue to bite into the fragrant, grilled entree mushroom.

This is ...... wonderful. The aroma before the meal was the same, but the flavor lingers in your mouth to stimulate your appetite. To be honest, I've eaten quite a lot of food up to this point, but the aroma stimulates your appetite and makes you eat more and more.

The members of the gourmet group next to me are still saying, ”Ummm-mah-zoo! And that's saying.

That's a high praise for anyone other than John Freeland. But still, having eaten their food just before, it's a step inferior to that.

Then it's time for the last dish. The lords bring the cockatrice meat with yellow sauce all over their mouths. And...

......!

The judges' forks fall off, including the lord's.

Then, when the scores from the food judging were announced, the entire hall, including us, gasped.

Ten points.

What is ......!

The owner of John Fleshtrans, as expected, opened his mouth at that score, and the brave gourmet girl who had been standing quietly next to him quietly opened her eyes and looked at the number.

Oh, you're awake.

This is .　Big surprise!　With a maximum score of 10 points over John Fletcher Run, Mina Diner is the winner!

A whoop and a cheer. At that, Mina can't help but jump around with Lily.

Please wait.

But at that moment a quiet word brings the audience to a halt.

May I ask why?

It was the gourmet girl who stood in front of the lords, including the judges, and asked them why.

I have captured various high-class food demons from all over the world. The red dragon you captured this time was also the one you defeated at the end of your most difficult quest. As for the Sea Slug Kraken, it's a fantastic squid that appears once every few years in the icy cliffs of the ocean. Capturing it was one or two of the best adventures I've ever had.

Let me ask you. Why was the premium material I gathered defeated?

The girl's question would be the very best. Her adventures have brought her a variety of high-grade materials.
