Uma Musume, from entry level to basement

"Of course." Tang Han handed the plate to the Emperor of the East China Sea.

"Thank you~" The Emperor of the East China Sea took the plate, picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"Mmm~ delicious~" The East Sea Emperor's eyes lit up, his ponytail swayed rapidly, and he praised excitedly:

"This fried carrot is super delicious! It's better than anything I've ever eaten! Tang Han is so amazing!"

"Really?" Tang Han tilted his head in confusion, his reaction rather calm.

He learned how to cook when he was in junior high school. Things like this that can be done as long as they are done according to the instructions are not difficult at all for Tang Han. With a little practice, he can basically make delicious dishes, so it is not worth Tang Han getting excited about.

Moreover, Tang Han had made fried carrots several times before and tasted them himself. He felt that the taste was average and not super delicious. So he now doubted whether the East China Sea Emperor’s claim that it was delicious was an exaggeration.

Or is it that the ratio of heat and ingredients was more perfect this time, so it tasted better?

Just when Tang Han wanted to try a piece to test the taste and gain experience, he found that the fried carrots and the East China Sea Emperor had disappeared.

"Huh? Where are my fried carrots?"

Tang Han widened his eyes in surprise, turned around, and found that the Emperor of the East China Sea had already taken the plate to share it with others.

"Everyone, come and try it. This is the dish made by Tang Han Tuoleina. It's super delicious~"

"Really? I want to try it!"

"I want it too! I want it too!"

"Miyu also wants to eat the food cooked by big brother..."

At the invitation of the Emperor of the East China Sea, everyone gathered together to taste the fried carrots made by Tang Han.

"Delicious!" Everyone exclaimed in praise after taking the first bite, and then they couldn't stop eating, one bite at a time, and couldn't stop at all.

By the time they realized what was happening, all the fried carrots had been eaten.

"Tang Han, I'm sorry. It was so delicious that I accidentally..." The Emperor of the East China Sea brought back an empty plate with an apologetic look on his face.

"Sorry..." Mi Yu and the others also realized that they ate too fast. They finished the food right after making it, while Tang Han, the producer, seemed to have not eaten it yet...

"......." Tang Han looked at everyone in silence for a few seconds, then turned around.

"It's okay. If you like it, I can just make a few more plates."

"Great~" Tang Han's answer made them feel relieved and they continued to do their work.

"Tang Han, don't let me teach you how to make fried carrots." The Emperor of the East China Sea looked at Tang Han expectantly.

"A first-class Saint King wants one too." The Saint King Halo not far away raised his hand and trotted over.

"Okay." Tang Han agreed.

Then, the Emperor of the East China Sea and Saint King Halo stood on both sides of Tang Han, carefully observing what Tang Han did.

After demonstrating it several times, Tang Han asked them:

"Have you memorized the steps?"

"Remember." The two horse girls nodded.

Tang Han took a step back, made room, and motioned the two horse girls to come forward.

"You guys try it."

"Good~"

The Emperor of the East China Sea and Saint King Halo walked to the stove and started cooking by themselves, while Tang Han watched from behind and gave them guidance from time to time.

At this time, Aoi Kiryuin had just finished her work and came to Tang Han to greet him.

"Hello, Trainer Tang Han."

"Hello." Tang Han responded politely.

"The fried carrots that Trainer Tang Han just made are delicious~" Kiryuin Aoi said with a smile.

"Thank you for the compliment."

"I think if anyone can become Trainer Tang Han's wife in the future, they will definitely be very happy."

"Thanks... huh?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the pony girls except Ulala and Happy Mickey froze in their tracks.

Especially the two horse girls closest to Tang Han, their necks slowly turned pink, a wisp of white mist emerged from their heads, and their ponytails kept whipping Tang Han's legs.

Tang Han suddenly felt a chill on his back, turned stiffly to look at Kiryuin Aoi, and said:

"Trainer Kiryuin, could you please change the subject? I don't want to talk about this for now..."

"Oh, sorry, I crossed the line." Kiryuin Aoi apologized quickly.

Then she thought for a moment and said:

"By the way, Trainer Tang Han, I'm curious, why do you cover your entire body? Why don't you even take off your gloves when you cook?"

Tang Han was stunned for a moment, then told the reason all along:

"Haha, I have a Chuunibyou problem. I like to dress like this because I think it's cool."

"Really?" Kiryuin Aoi looked at Tang Han all over and nodded.

"Really handsome."

"Ah, this..." This made Tang Han confused.

He just made up a random excuse, but he didn't expect it to be accepted!

At this time, Kiryuin Aoi moved closer to Tang Han, looked at his face curiously, and said:

"Um, Trainer Tang Han, I want to see your face, is that okay?"

Tang Han: “….”

Here I am again, curious about my true appearance.

Tang Han first pretended to look around carefully, then bent down and whispered:

"Trainer Kiryuin, to be honest, I actually look quite bizarre underneath the mask. I have green skin, a pointy mouth, round eyes, a long nose, four arms, and hair all over my body. I look incredibly disgusting."

Huang Jinchuan, who was making octopus balls in the back, suddenly curled his lips in disdain: "Tsk... if only it were true..."

“.......” Tang Han was speechless.

I'm sorry that my real face doesn't look weird, but rather handsome.

Just when Tang Han thought that only the Golden Ship's aesthetic was abstract, he didn't expect that Kiryuin Aoi was even more of a heavyweight.

"Haha, Trainer Tang Han is really humorous. Isn't the image you described very cute?" Kiryuin Aoi said with a smile.

Tang Han: “…”

Does she have some misunderstanding about cuteness?

109. The moon (Luna) is so beautiful

After an afternoon of preparation, all the ingredients were processed.

Most of them were made into various delicacies, sealed with plastic wrap, and then heated in the microwave when the banquet started in the evening, and could be eaten directly at that time.

A small portion was cleaned or made into meatballs, and then put into a pot and cooked together at the beginning of the banquet and eaten while it was being cooked.

In addition, under Tang Han's guidance, the two horse girls, Emperor of the East China Sea and Saint King Halo, also successfully learned how to make fried carrots.

Although they were not very good at it at the beginning and were clumsy, they either coated it with too little flour and the filling leaked out during frying, or fried it for too long, resulting in a stiff skin that was very chewy.

But after many times of practice, they finally made a qualified dish.

After the two horse girls tried it themselves and found it tasted okay, they immediately gave it to Tang Han to try.

"It's quite delicious." Tang Han gave his evaluation after tasting it.

"Although your control of the heat is still a little lacking, you've gone from complete novices to this level in just one afternoon. This shows you have a great talent for cooking. You just need more practice and experience. When you set up a stall during the school festival, I'm sure you'll be crowded with customers."

"Really? That's great~" The two horse girls' ears twitched with joy after hearing Tang Han's affirmative answer.

"Let me try it too." Aoi Kiryuin picked up a piece of fried carrot and put it in her mouth.

After tasting it, she also gave her evaluation:

"Mmm~ It's delicious. I'm sure you two will become excellent wives in the future."

"Hehe, of course. A first-rate Saint King is always perfect in everything he does, even his wife...eh?!" Saint King Halo said halfway when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Wife, wife, wife?!" Her face flushed and she looked at Tang Han at a loss.

"Wife..." The Emperor of the East China Sea didn't react that much, but his cheeks turned slightly red. He lowered his head and hooked his fingers, as if he remembered something.

Tang Han looked at the shy looks of the two horse girls, his eyes widened in horror, and his heart stopped for a moment.

Trainer Kiryuin, are you awake?! Why are you bringing up this whole marital issue again?! Do you know that this nonsense will land him in the basement?

"Ahem, Trainer Kiryuin, isn't it too early to tell them this now..." Tang Han said.

"That's right." Kiryuin Aoi nodded in agreement and began to look for another topic.

She thought hard and finally came up with a question that was suitable for the ages of the people present.

"So...what kind of girls does Trainer Tang Han like?"

"......." The scene suddenly became quiet, and even the sound of chopping on the chopping board disappeared.

"What? Why did everyone stop?" Ulala's puzzled voice was particularly loud.

After Ulala's reminder, all kinds of sounds rang out again, but they were more unnatural than before.

"Wuwuwu..." Tang Han covered his face in pain, wanting to cry but having no tears.

He didn't even need to look to feel that some horse girls were already pricking up their ears to hear his answer.

Trainer Kiryuin, please stop talking...

......

The time soon came to night.

Everyone moved everything back to the training room, then filled the table with delicious food, hung colorful balloons on the walls of the training room, and found two paper crowns similar to birthday hats to put on Ulala and Happy Mickey's heads. Finally, the long-awaited celebration party began.

"Let's toast to the two champions~"

Everyone raised their honey drinks, clinked glasses with each other, and drank them all happily.

"So delicious~" It was the first time for Aoi Kiryuin and Happy Miko to drink such a delicious honey drink. They kept refilling their cups and couldn't stop drinking for a while.

In addition to Tang Han’s delicious honey drink, the various delicacies he made also made everyone unable to stop.

Moreover, Tang Han took into consideration that everyone had a big appetite, so he made a lot of each dish. Therefore, everyone didn’t need to worry about not having enough of what they wanted to eat.

Next, everyone entered into a happy time of eating, and every horse girl enjoyed the meal very much.

And during this joyful celebration, Tang Han deeply understood a fact.

That is, not only are humans not as physically fit as horse girls, but they are also far less able to eat.

After Tang Han ate two dishes and a bowl of rice, he could already feel his stomach rumbling.

But Wulala and the others were different. Even though they were thinner and had smaller waists than him, they could eat several times more! It was like pulling Darwin out of his coffin and slapping him in the face!

Especially Mi Yu. Although she is petite and eats very politely, taking small bites, there are always more than ten empty plates next to her than other horse girls. The amount she eats in ten minutes is equivalent to what Tang Han eats in two days.

"You guys continue, I'm going to go out and get some fresh air." Tang Han, who was full, had nothing to do. He felt embarrassed to continue sitting here and watching the ladies eat, so he walked out of the training room alone.

It was pitch black outside the training room, with only the bright crescent moon in the sky casting silver light on the ground, adding a touch of poetry.

Ignoring the trainer in the training room next door, he was dragged in by his two pony girls and started dancing vigorously. The night was quiet and peaceful.

Tang Han closed the door, blocking out the noise in the training room and welcoming the silence outside.

He sat on the doorstep and looked down at the concrete floor.

There were a few sounds of insects chirping among the trees on both sides of the road, and the breeze blew on Tang Han's hood, bringing him a hint of coolness.

"Huh..." Tang Han felt the tranquility around him, relaxed, and let out a breath.

He has been very tired recently, with all kinds of troubles coming one after another. Tang Han has no time to rest at all, which has caused a lot of fatigue to accumulate in his body. Now that he relaxes, the sleepiness comes over him instantly and he can't stand it at all.

Tang Han slowly closed his eyes, and the color on his body faded away, as if he was about to burn out here.
