Hunter x Hunter: Card Master, the Strongest in the World.

After adjusting his state, Lynn had a thought in mind and conjured a new card.

He stayed in Jeram for half a month, and finally the trait bar produced a card.

The feature bar has reached its limit, so this is the only card left.

【Name: Egg Tempura Rice Bowl】

[Grade: B-]

[Type: Item Card]

[Background: Gourmet Destroyer]

[Description: This special dish, created by Soma Yukihira, contains unique energy. Despite using ordinary ingredients, it is still quite delicious. Ordinary people may experience clothing damage if they eat it, but it can restore physical strength in a short time after consumption.]

A bowl of rice?

Upon seeing the egg tempura rice bowl with a B- grade rating, Lynn blinked instinctively, thinking he was seeing things.

After seeing the words "Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma," he understood.

In that world, eating can even cause clothes to burst and glow, and this particular dish was made by the protagonist and has the effect of restoring stamina, so a B- rating is reasonable.

The thought of Soma Yukihira made Lynn's mind start to wander again.

Increase physical strength - Find delicious food - Find ingredients - Submit to Toriko - Obtain the delicious food - Successfully increase strength.

This is his current process.

However, there are still many areas for improvement.

The delicacies he finds are usually of low quality, and he can't cook high-quality ingredients, such as the disaster Sluk, so it's difficult for him to get high-quality delicacies even when he submits them to Toriko.

Even his trade with Toriko was almost unequal. Toriko would always give him food that was above the level of the traded items. Otherwise, he would never be able to eat delicacies like the Gala Crocodile or Rainbow Juice.

The problem of ingredients is difficult to solve, but it can be addressed gradually. The immediate issue he can resolve is finding a skilled chef.

Someone like Soma Yukihira can make delicious food with ordinary ingredients. He can not only eat it himself, but also give it to Toriko. Presumably, the food obtained through trade would be even better.

Unfortunately, good chefs are hard to find, so we can only hope that winning the championship and going to the Gourmet Paradise will solve the problem.

You can either get a chef-type card character in the Gourmet Paradise, or you can recruit a Gourmet Hunter there.

After regaining his senses, Lynn hesitated for a moment before deciding not to eat it himself, but to give it to Toriko, as this would yield greater benefits.

【Successful transaction】

Satisfaction rating: B+

[Client's review: A unique rice bowl dish, tastes good, the chef's skill level is very good, using simple ingredients to create a dish that exceeds expectations. I look forward to eating more delicious food in the future. This onion is for you.]

[Reward: Dionysus Onion (B+)]

……

【Name: Dionysus Onion】

[Grade: B+]

[Type: Item Card]

[Background: Gourmet Devil]

[Description: This is a level 15 onion, bursting with a concentrated, rich aroma of alcohol. It has its own flavoring properties and can be eaten directly as a salad to accompany drinks. Consuming it can enhance physical fitness.]

Lynn picked up the Dionysus Onion, and his nose reacted before his eyes.

An amazing aroma wafts up, not the pungent, tear-inducing smell of a regular onion after it's been cut, but a mellow, aged brandy-like fragrance.

Dionysus onion, it's said that just eating a small slice can make you feel like you've drunk countless bottles of alcohol... I hope it doesn't make him drunk.

Each slice of Dionysus onion has an amber-colored, translucent texture, like a crystal formed from solidified liquor, with slightly curled edges that refract a pale golden luster under the light.

"It smells so good." The door opened, and Chopper walked out with a dazed look in his eyes. His little nose twitched, and just smelling the aroma of alcohol in the air was enough to make one feel slightly tipsy.

Soon, Chopper, Yuki-onna, and Gastly approached him, all curious about the magical onion.

After thinking for a moment, Lynn gently picked up a slice of onion, as if grasping a thin piece of ice, yet with the unique suppleness of a plant.

The faint aroma of wine intensified the moment it touched my finger, as if the thin cell wall had ruptured, finally releasing the long-sealed wine. Then, the onion was placed in a large glass of water to dilute the concentration.

He has important business to attend to today; he shouldn't let "drinking" ruin it.

In just a moment, about a liter of drinking water turned into a mellow old wine. Not only did the color change, but the smell also became intoxicating. You could not tell that it was clear water just a second ago.

Lynn poured a glass for everyone, then picked up a small glass, took a small sip, and the crystal-clear liquor rushed into his mouth, the strong flavor bursting forth.

It felt like someone had spilled a whole barrel of aged wine in his mouth.

A warm current surged up from deep in his throat, like taking a big gulp of fine brandy. A line of fire slowly flowed down his esophagus to his stomach, and streams of warmth flowed to his limbs and bones. His spiritual energy began to fluctuate gradually.

"It's so spicy." Chopper's cheeks turned red, and he subconsciously fanned himself, but he couldn't help but take a second bite.

Before long, the four of them had finished the entire liter of wine... As for Hyakume-ki, he had no room for improvement and was just a temporary henchman.

The effects were quite noticeable after drinking it. Lynn took a deep breath to calm herself down and felt that her spiritual energy was more active on her body.

This is only a quarter of the amount of one onion.

He figured that once he finished eating this onion, the rating on the panel would be changed to B+, and Chopper would be about the same.

Because Dionysus Onion is too powerful, he dares not drink too much. That's all for today. He still has to go to the Food Tower for one last competition.

After accumulating points for half a month, he is currently ranked second in the Food Tower rankings, and today is the day he will challenge for first place.

If he wins, he will not only gain 50 points, but his opponent will also lose 100 points, which means he will be guaranteed to be the champion.

This battle will be the decisive one to determine the champion of this carnival.

After a short while, Lynn set off, leading Hyakume, Chopper, and the others to the Food Tower.

The 50th floor of the food tower.

The venue was roughly circular, with the ring at the very center and the audience seating around it. The venue was packed with people, and the atmosphere was noisy.

Among them is a petite and adorable little girl.

The little girl was wearing a princess dress, had golden hair, and wore two little pigtails.

She was also wearing a wine-red cloak, the same color as her exquisite eyes.

But who would have thought that beneath this adorable little girl's appearance lies the true face of a tall, muscular woman!

She looks extremely young, but in fact she is a middle-aged woman in her fifties.

It is none other than Bisge, a master of the Heart Source School and a veteran Nen user in the Hunter Association!

She happened to be in Jerram for some business, so she took the opportunity to watch the food tower finals.
