Can you handle my Hikigaya's cooking?

Ibusaki: "After all, Mito is pretty famous in the high school department. As one of Erina's generals, many people are looking forward to her making new dishes from Shokugeki."

Isshiki: “Well, this is becoming more and more interesting.”

Kawashima Rei's hosting continued. She waved the microphone high and shouted energetically:

"First, let us welcome our meat master, Mito Yumei!"

"Ohhh! Your breasts are so big."

"Next is our transfer student, Hikigaya Hachiman!"

"Who...?"

"have no idea..."

"Hey, I heard that this guy got praised by Teacher Shepper on the first day."

"Tsk, so what? His opponent is Mito, the guy who never got below an A in meat cooking. I think he, hehe... is doomed."

The comments of the people around him had already reached the ears of everyone in Polar Star Dormitory, and for a moment Marui could no longer sit still.

"Hey, hey, this atmosphere seems to be bad... I hope Hikigaya won't be affected."

Isseki still had a calm smile on his face:

"Don't worry, once Hikigaya-kun starts cooking... no one will bother him anymore... Odadoki knows this, too."

Prompted by Isshiki-senpai's words, Tansho quickly remembered Hikigaya's terrifying concentration.

She nodded sharply, her eyes full of determination.

Kawashima Rei: "Well, let me confirm again."

"There are three judges, the theme is vegetable dishes, and the main ingredient is meat."

"If Mito-san wins the Shokugeki, not only will Hikigaya-san be expelled, but Polaris Dormitory will also be demolished and replaced by a new food storage building."

"And if Hikigaya-san wins the Shokugeki, Polaris Dormitory will not be challenged for demolition or seizure, and Mito-san will also have to join Polaris Dormitory and provide labor."

It can be said that the battle between these two people no longer represents themselves.

Mito: "Come on, let me see what you can do."

Hachiman: "Oh...Oh."

Audience: "....He really has no temper at all."

Just as the food battle began, Erina Nakiri appeared in her personal VIP room.

Chapter 35: Erina's Arrival, a One-Sided Situation

"Hey, look..."

"Erina-sama?!!"

"Wait, what's going on? Not to mention that I've never heard of that transfer student, how come even Lady Erina came to watch this little food battle in person?"

"This is incredible. This is really incredible. You know, Erina-sama's time is very precious. I am really looking forward to this food battle. What kind of sparks will erupt?"

With the excitement in the audience again, the whole stadium became excited.

Mito quickly revealed a confident smile: "Lady Erina... just watch carefully, I will defeat this guy."

Hachiman: "It's this troublesome girl again... It seems like she really wants me to drop out of school."

At the same time, Polaris Dormitory was also completely caught off guard.

Yoshino: "No way...how could that be?"

Marui: "This small-scale food competition actually attracted one of the Ten Elites to come and watch. Although Isshiki-senpai is also here, Erina is completely irrelevant."

Ibusaki: "Is it because Mito Izumi is from the same faction as Nakiri Erina?"

Ryoko also showed a worried expression on her face: "Is it really just because of this reason?"

A faint smile soon appeared on Isshiki's face:

"Nakiri..."

Erina sat in the VIP room that belonged to the top ten, watching the competition below the stage with an eager expression.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing Hikigaya get expelled from school."

There was a look of helplessness on Feishazi's face.

Kawashima Rei: "Then without further ado, both parties should take their positions at the stove!"

"The loser will lose everything. This is a competition on the tip of the tongue. The competition officially begins!"

Hachiman moved very quickly. He just picked up a pot of vegetables and started processing them.

Erina and Isshiki watched his movements. Although compared to the level of Totsuki students, it was definitely not fast and could only be considered barely acceptable, but...

Compared with the previous few days, there is a huge difference. With such progress, is this guy really a human being?

While watching the fight, even Erina herself didn't realize that her hands had been clenched into fists.

On the other hand, Mito was not in a hurry to start. Two hours was more than enough time for her. She just picked up a knife and looked at Hikigaya's unremarkable movements. She sneered with disdain for a moment:

"Transfer student, I don't know where you came from, but since your opponent has chosen me, you must be prepared to fail, otherwise you will have nowhere to stay after leaving this academy."

Hachiman's answer came slowly, his voice was still so calm, as if there was no emotion: "As for defeat, I can be said to be a strong man who has experienced hundreds of battles, so... I have never been afraid."

Mito: "Tsk... it's just for show."

"Look, what are the ingredients you really need to make a good dish?"

She lifted the curtain behind her, and a huge piece of beef immediately shocked the whole audience.

Marui: "Sure enough, it's A5 beef."

Tadokoro Megumi's expression already revealed her fear: "It's so big..."

Ibusaki: "Next is her best area, Mito."

Hachiman glanced secretly at the huge A5 beef behind him. His hands never stopped moving, but he had to sigh that it was the first time he had seen such a big piece of beef.

Mito: "Hey, at least take a look."

Hachiman: "Yes, yes..I have seen it."

On stage...

"This guy is too disrespectful to Mito."

"I guess Mito must be furious. After all, her family has always been famous for its beef, but it turns out that it is not taken seriously."

"The most important thing is that this guy never stopped moving his hands."

"It really is..."

Mito's face was covered with invisible black lines. She clenched the kitchen knife in her hand. Perhaps she was irritated by this guy's self-righteousness, so she used more force than before.

The sword flashes like a shadow, chopping off all the beef!

At a speed barely catching with the naked eye, the few powerful swings of the knife were like giving the beef a full body beautification. In just a moment, cracks that were impossible to ignore were carved out.

Ibusaki: "The meat cleaver used for cutting meat, with such a large knife, it can accurately cut the tendons of meat."

Marui: "How should I describe it... Is this brute force?"

Yoshino: "Hey, hey, I've never seen anything like this before. This is such an incredibly delicate and marinated beef. It's over, over, over..."

Ryoko: "Both fat and lean meat have a lustrous sheen..."

Tadokoro Megumi wrote the word "人" on her palm and swallowed it into her stomach, then she muttered: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes...Hikigaya-san, yes, yes, yes..."

Seeing Mito's big moves, it was like he was acting like a crazy bullfighter, while Hikigaya's...

She was still slowly processing the vegetable leaves and cooking a soup made of unknown ingredients.

It can be said to be mediocre.

Once again, there was a mocking voice from the stage:

"The game is over...there is nothing to compare."

"I think this guy is just here to make people laugh."

"How can he win when he hasn't even started processing the meat yet?"

“Even if we take out the meat, it won’t be able to compete with Mito’s A5 beef.”

As expected, the atmosphere at the scene was becoming more and more wrong. As the sound gradually reached Erina Nakiri's ears, a faint smile slowly appeared on her lips.

"Hikigaya Hachiman, I'm going to make you pay for insulting my cooking."

Mito's cooking continued. She put the marbled beef into the pot, which instantly caused it to boil. Then, butter was poured on top, covering the entire piece of meat. The venue was instantly filled with a rich aroma.

This process can lock the juice on the surface of the meat. After the beef is briefly baked in the oven, the pervasive aroma bursts out, instantly attracting everyone in the venue.

At the same time, Hachiman finally took out his meat.

When no one was paying attention to him, he stood on his own battlefield without being affected at all.

Simply prepare the ingredients, simply chop the meat, simply cook a stock, everything is so ordinary.

Chapter 36: This is the Secret of the Hikigaya Style

From beginning to end, there was only one person whose eyes were always on him.

"Tsk... this guy is going to serve up this kind of unremarkable dish again... I won't admit it."

Marui: "Huh? Did you notice Isshiki-senpai?"

Ryoko: "Ah... He said he was going to the bathroom."

Yoshino: "No way, going to the bathroom at such an important time... I'm so nervous, Xiaohui, how about you?"

Tansho Kei seemed to have heard nothing and continued to mutter:

"Hikigaya-san can do it, Hikigaya-san can do it, Hikigaya-san can do it, Hikigaya-san can do it..."

Yoshino: “Okay…”

Mito almost captured the attention of the whole audience. With her delicate skills and sensibility, she measured the temperature of the beef with her lips. Then, like a pianist playing a smooth solo, she continued to interpret this rhapsody of meat.

After completing your process, you only need to wait a little and your cooking will be done.

Mito breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the man behind him with curiosity. However, he seemed to be still frying his own meat.

"No way, you are still doing this step."

"You started earlier than me, but ended later than me. It's incredible. You're really useless."

Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, Mito was already a little disdainful. She put her hands on her hips and said self-righteously:

"Now you are silent and retorting. You are so useless."

However, no matter how Mito mocked him or what he said, Hachiman seemed unmoved and was not affected at all.

There seemed to be an invisible wall between her and him, no... between him and everyone in the venue, and people outside could not disturb him at all.

This selfless state made Mito, who was still mocking him, unable to bear it any longer. She walked forward, just wanting to find out what Hikigaya was doing.

"!!!"

When she got close to Hikigaya, Mito was instantly speechless due to the invisible pressure. It felt like she was being strangled by the neck and could only watch the other person.

Hachiman's eyes were dull and he looked like he was resting with his eyes closed. He was just constantly feeling the progress of the cooking.

"Hey, what on earth is this guy doing?!"

"Are you giving up?"

"No way... it's over..."
