Kamen Rider from the ancient times

Chapter 517 Agito vs. Crimson Demon
How did things turn out this way?
What were they originally here for?

They're definitely not here to compete in cooking skills.

Kana Okamura rubbed her head, feeling a bit of a headache. Seeing that the confrontation on the other side was beyond repair, she could only look apologetically at Kawahara.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kawahara, we seem to have caused you trouble."

"What trouble could it possibly cause me?"

Kawahara chuckled with interest, "Since the manager thinks it's alright, that's fine. It just so happens that we'll have someone to help entertain the guests tonight."

Kana Okamura looked over there and saw a smile on the face of the shop manager, Shitama. He, who was usually slow and lukewarm, had become much more enthusiastic.

So Kana Okamura couldn't help but smile.

Perhaps because it was a rare opportunity for everyone to get together and have some fun, the shop manager of Shiyu not only didn't find it troublesome, but even found it interesting. He was now taking out a handwritten menu to offer suggestions for the two people's competition.

The dinner rush is just around the corner, and the necessary ingredients have already been brought over by Minoru Godai and Shoichi Tsugami.

In addition to the regular menu at PolePole Cafe, the two will each need to add a signature dish to the new menu and then compete to see who sells the most portions that night.

Perhaps to accommodate Tsukasa Kadoya's inability to master the Golden Curry after an entire afternoon of learning, the new menu is not limited to curry dishes.

As it turned out, neither of them chose curry rice.

Shoichi Tsugami brought out his signature AgitΩ special set meal from his own AgitΩ restaurant, while Tsukasa Kadoya followed suit and chose a Decade special coffee.

The war started with curry rice, but in the end it had nothing to do with curry at all.

However, it must be said that since the new menu was implemented, Tsugami Shoichi in this game has been made to look honest by Kadoya Tsukasa's little tricks.

Hikari Natsumi and Kazetani Mana volunteered to serve as waiters, while Ashihara Ryo, who was baffled by the development of the situation, didn't get involved and just sat in a corner of the shop with Mizutani Risa to watch.

The evening sun shone in through the shop entrance.

From the moment the first customer stepped into PolePole café, an invisible battle began to ensue!

Tsugami Shoichi, wearing a white chef's hat, smiled confidently and was full of fighting spirit!
However, half an hour later.

He noticed that almost every customer would order a coffee while dining, after being persuaded by Tsukasa Kadoya's sweet talk, and finally realized that something was wrong.

broken!

This isn't a profit war, it's a sales war!
After all, the AgitΩ special set meal is a filling main dish, and no matter how delicious it is, not everyone will want to eat this kind of main dish.

However, coffee is a beverage that doesn't make up a large proportion of meals, and with Tsukasa Kadoya personally stepping out from behind the counter and marketing with a dashing and confident smile, Shoichi Tsugami is completely outmatched!
It turns out we were caught in a conspiracy from the very beginning!
"How is it~"

Tsukasa Kadoya didn't even need to look at the sales figures that the shop manager was calculating; just by looking at the coffee cups on the table, he already knew he had a sure win.

Kawahara squinted: "It's too bright."

Realizing he had been tricked and was doomed to lose, Tsugami Shoichi, filled with resentment, cooked with incredible speed, his fighting spirit igniting the light power within him.

Kawahara rubbed his temples, looked away, and then glanced at the Decade specialty coffee in his hand: "So what is this?"

"It's just culinary inspiration from Kuuga's battle stories, don't be shy~"

A confident smile played on Tsukasa Kadoya's lips as he crossed his arms and spoke slowly.

Shoichi Tsugami, who was working hard to stir-fry the food in the kitchen, saw that Tsugami was still leisurely outside. He became even more indignant and started tossing the wok. Light power gushed out, and for a moment it was even brighter than when he fought the Black God. Kawahara even suspected that Tsukasa Kadoya had planned to take revenge on Agito from the very beginning.

He truly is a destroyer of the world!

……

As night fell completely, this war that began with curry came to an end.

No matter how hard Kazetani Maki tried to promote the AgitΩ package, the honest and simple Agitator ultimately lost to the cunning Magenta Devil.

"I actually lost..."

Shoichi Tsugami sighed in frustration. He had been so focused on showing off his cooking skills that he hadn't considered that winning the competition wasn't solely dependent on culinary talent.

Kazatani Mana comforted him, "It's okay, look, Shoichi sold a lot of AgitΩ sets today, and everyone says they're delicious!"

Upon hearing this, Tsugami Shoichi glanced at the sales list recorded by the store manager, but after seeing that Kadoya Tsukasa's coffee had sold more servings, he turned his head away with a sullen expression and sighed.

"This kind of competition is just for fun, there's no need to take it seriously," said Ryo Ashihara, sipping his Decade-themed coffee.

"..."

Tsugami Shoichi looked at him, his gaze falling on the coffee in his hand, and sighed again.

"Yeah, Brother Xiangyi, you don't have to be so sad. I really love the AgitΩ set meal you make!" Xiao Lei, who had just stirred things up, comforted him.

"........."

Tsugami Shoichi looked at the milk coffee he was holding with a resentful gaze.

“You should accept your loss, Mr. Tsugami!” Kana Okamura patted him on the shoulder.

"..."

Tsugami Shoichi lowered his head in defeat.

Regardless of the outcome of their battle, the onlookers certainly found it very entertaining.

……

After 8 p.m., the number of customers lingering in the store gradually decreased.

Just as everyone was jokingly comforting Tsugami Shoichi, the store manager, Shikitama, who had been helping to clean up the kitchen, suddenly brought out a new plate of curry rice.

"Seeing you all here just now gave me a new inspiration! Look—this is the Sparkling Curry!"

The people who heard the sound looked over in surprise.

The curry rice on the plate looked almost identical to the golden curry, with nearly the same ingredients and presentation, except for fewer side dishes, and a bright orange-red egg yolk resting on top of the plump, round rice ball.

"This is the sun, the sun!"

The shop manager of the jade ornament store introduced it in a very serious manner.

"So why is it the sun?" Tsukasa Kadoya suddenly asked.

"Ah~ It's rare to see everyone so happy tonight, it feels like we've seen the sun, haha!" Shopkeeper Shiyu said with a hearty laugh.

Anyway, his culinary inspiration just popped into his head.

But Kawahara, looking at the small amount of curry sauce and side dishes on the plate, rested his chin on his hand and suggested, "It tastes a bit bland this time. Would it be better with some soy sauce?"

Isn't that just raw egg mixed with rice?

And if you pour dark soy sauce over white rice balls...

Several AgitΩ looked at the new curry rice that looked very familiar, and after a moment of silence, they glanced at Kawahara. Involuntarily, a gloomy scene of them being surrounded by ultimate darkness popped into their minds.

Upon hearing this, the shop manager of Shiyu seemed thoughtful: "Is that so? It's rare for Ayuan to mention a particular flavor, so I'll try adding sauce..."

As soon as the words were spoken, the group of people suddenly came to their senses.

"etc…!"

"No, this is perfect!"

"Curry rice isn't just rice mixed with soy sauce!"
