Love comes after eating halberds

But what Hoshino Sora didn't know was that after he left, another person in venue B got a good score of 29 points, tied for first place with Mashiro Shiina.

----------

In the evening, Yaoriliao held a celebration banquet.

Tadokoro didn't come because of the banquet at Jokusei Residence, but Hiisako and Alice were both present and sat together.

"Hmph, how are you, little secretary?"

"How about what?"

"Hoshino-kun, you must have tried it all, all kinds of things."

Patting Haisako's shoulder, Nakiri Alice deliberately spoke in an ambiguous tone, and upon hearing this, Haisako finally understood what Alice meant.

This is embarrassing her!

He glared at Alice subtly, but still managed to be patient: "I'm sorry, Alice, I don't know what you are talking about."

"Erina told me how crazy you were last night, even more so than the night I took her..."

Seeing the stubborn look on Nito Hisako's refusal to admit it, Nakiri Alice kept talking, and while speaking, she looked at Erina who was sitting next to Hoshino Sora. That look was as real as possible.

"Stop talking, Erina-sama, why do you keep talking about everything..."

Hearing Alice's words, Nito Hisako's expression was stunned, and her cheeks turned red visibly, and this redness exposed all her thoughts.

"Hahahaha, Fei Shasha, you are really easy to deceive. This won't work, you will be deceived by a boy. No, it seems that you have been deceived by a boy now."

Holding her stomach and laughing loudly, Nakiri Alice looked at Hoshino Sora with a pointed look. The guy at the dinner table had a completely stupid look and a gentle personality.

From his appearance, there is absolutely no clue that he is an expert at picking up girls!

It was precisely because of this that so many girls threw themselves into his arms. They thought they were the only ones, but in the end they were just a small fish in his brother's fish pond.

But what can you do if you have already entered?Although it is a fish pond, it is a fish pond that allows carp to jump over the dragon gate. At least they are all vested interests and have no right to say anything.

Feeling the surging power in her body, this power is really magical. It makes her become like a superman. Not to mention, the strengthening of her five senses has indeed enhanced her cooking skills a lot.

Although there are no girls who do not desire one-on-one relationships, if there is no other way, they will settle for the next best thing. Anyway, Hoshino Sora's attitude toward them has not changed because he has more wives.

Still as sincere as when we first met.

"Well, it's true, Alice-sama!"

Knowing that she had been deceived, Hisako puffed up her cheeks slightly and spoke angrily. She was really doubting Erina-sama just now. What a shame!

"Take me with you next time. Erina and I have tried together, but we can't defeat that guy. Really, that guy's energy is too strong. I feel like there's no way I can make him collapse without five or six people."

Holding her chin with her hand, she spoke astonishingly. Alice Nakiri had long wanted to see where Hoshino Sora's limits were. Two people would definitely not be able to do it, and it would probably be difficult for three people, so there would only be more.

"Five...five or six people?!"

Seeing Alice thinking seriously, Nito Feisako knew that she was not joking. She said with a shocked expression, are all the boys in this world so powerful?

"Well, this is my conservative estimate. At least he didn't feel tired at all that day. I don't know how many kidneys he has. Even the Super Kidney Fighter is not that outrageous..."

Thinking of the party at her villa that day, Nakiri Alice said with emotion, while Hiyoko was stunned for a while, obviously unable to understand what Alice meant.

Alice was not prepared to explain, mainly because she had no way of explaining it, so she lowered her head and silently showed off her rice.

On the other side, Hoshino Sora's eyes swept across the dining table, but he never found Mahiru Shiina. He looked for her with some worry.

"What happened? Why are you in the room alone?"

Knocking on Shiina Mahiru's door, Hoshino Sora asked patiently at the door.

"It's nothing, just leave me alone." The girl's voice came from the house.

"Is it because he didn't advance?" Standing at the door, Hoshino Sora paused. Today is a celebration banquet, and this seems to be the only reason why the other party didn't come out.

"A little bit..."

"Let me in. Even if you don't attend the party, you still have to eat. At least let me give it to you."

Hearing the voice, Hoshino Sora did not leave, but continued to say at the door that he had always given special care to the crane tail of Yaoriliao.

Special training, guidance, cooking Q&A.

In the Yaori dormitory, the two of them spent the most time together, and the other party relied on him very much. However, the progress was extremely limited, at least compared to others.

"Squeak..."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, the girl in the room hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to open the door.

It was a face with slightly red eyes and a slightly haggard look.

Chapter 15 Mahiru seizes the 'future'

"You weren't crying in your room just now, were you?"

Looking at the girl's slightly red eyes, Hoshino Sora said half-jokingly, and then walked into the room.

"Didn't you say you would bring food here..." Looking at Hoshino's empty hands, Shiina Mahiru looked a little confused.

"You believe that kind of nonsense, you are such a little fool."

As he spoke, he closed the door of the room again. Hoshino Sora sat next to Shiina Mahiru's bed and lay down. It was soft and very comfortable. He had slept on it once, and it was much better than his hard bed.

"fraud!"

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Shiina Mahiru didn't know that she had been deceived. She immediately said something with a puffed face and walked up to him, her eyes twinkling.

Hoshino Sora saw De Zhi inside.

"Hoshino-kun, why are you so weak? You have been practicing every day and never slacked off for a day, but everyone has advanced and I am the only one who failed..."

It took a long time for Shiina Mahiru to speak. Although her current strength is ranked above the middle among Totsuki's first-year students, she often gets A-level evaluations in her courses.

However, when placed in a larger environment, she appears to be very incompetent.

She only scored 12 points in the trials for Division C, which was considered among the best among the participating first-year students. However, Tadokoro's 27 points really gave her a big blow.

She should obviously be happy for it, but she doesn't know why she only feels jealous. No, it's not just jealousy, but also disappointment in herself.

I was disappointed as to why I was so useless. Although I was receiving special training from Sora Hoshino every day, I couldn't perform much when I actually went to the competition field.

She may not really have any cooking talent.

"I haven't accumulated enough, and my techniques are relatively clumsy. I feel like you haven't understood many things. Even though you practice every day, you haven't made any significant progress. Do you feel that?

But even so, your skills have surpassed the vast majority of people in the first grade. This is the result of working hard day and night. "

Speaking of this, Hoshino Sora paused again: "Actually, I think you are one of those late-blooming types. If you continue to work hard, you will get it sooner or later."

"Um..."

Speaking of this, Shiina Mahiru still had no expression, just lowered his head and looked depressed, obviously not really believing Hoshino Sora's words of comfort.

"Ahem, in that case, I have another way, but you may not be able to accept this way, and I don't want you to do it because of this..."

Seeing Shiina Mahiru's appearance, Hoshino Sora's words revealed hesitation. He had the means to make Shiina Mahiru stronger, but the gourmet cells had to be in close physical contact before they could be transferred.

If the other party is unwilling, then this method is invalid.

"You're talking about doing that kind of thing, right? I know it, Xiao Hui once told me." Hearing Hoshino Sora's pinched words, Shiina Mahiru said with a sudden blush.

"Is that so? Since you are unwilling to try this method, there is nothing I can do..."

After hearing Shiina Mahiru's words, Hoshino Sora had the answer in his heart. Since the other party knew about the matter and did not take the initiative to find him, it meant that the other party was unwilling, so this trick would not work.

There was no persuasion or coercion. After all, no matter what method was used in the end, it was Mahiru Shiina who had the final choice. He had no reason to force the other party.

"No, I... Of course I am willing. I have been willing a long time ago. It's just that you have always been cold to me and don't seem to have feelings between men and women, so I..."

After a pause, Shiina Mahiru suddenly started speaking with a blushing face. Her voice became softer as she spoke, revealing unconcealable happiness in her voice.

"Really?"

As he spoke, Hoshino Sora looked at her face, as if he couldn't believe it. He already regarded Mahiru Shiina as his sister, but the other party actually told him that she liked him.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, this was all he meant inside and outside the words.

The days when the two of them had special training in the kitchen came to mind. If he remembered correctly, he had made many hints when teaching each other in the kitchen, such as inadvertently touching his hands when handing over ingredients, and when teaching about the cooking methods. Hug her from behind.

But every time Shiina Mahiru ran away decisively, with a subtle look of disgust on her face. It was also because of seeing that expression that Hoshino Sora completely stopped thinking about her.

Since then, she has been treating Shiina Mahiru the same way she treats her sister, keeping a certain distance and not doing anything that goes beyond the rules.

The two of them had been getting along like this for several months. In this case, the other party actually told him, "She has actually liked him for a long time, but she just didn't say it because he was too cold."

He couldn't figure it out. Hoshino Sora really couldn't figure out the answer. It might be small things in daily life or small collisions at work. In short, the other party didn't seem to have a bad feeling towards him.

After thinking about this, Hoshino Sora couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Actually, I have always liked you, but I was worried that you wouldn't like me. I made many hints before but got no response. After that, I always regarded you as my sister."

"Are those hints? I thought it was accidental..."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Shiina Mahiru immediately remembered the time when the two first met, when the other party always made physical contact with her intentionally or unintentionally.

At that time, the rules of the world had not been changed. Regardless of whether you were a boy or a girl, you would be cast aside by society if you had more than one career.

Therefore, the reason why Shiina Mahiru had a bad attitude towards Hoshino Sora at that time was because she did not want to be the third party in other people's relationships.

But now that the world view has changed, and society can accept capable men and women having a harem, she feels that this kind of thing is not particularly difficult to accept.

So during the daily special kitchen training, she gradually developed feelings for Hoshino Sora. It was weak at first, but as time went by, the feelings gradually became deeper.

This is a long-lasting process.

But Shiina Mahiru has been holding back because she doesn't feel much love from Hoshino Sora. This is also understandable. You can see it from his attitude towards Alice and her.

So even though she knew that Hoshino Sora could give her a peerless talent and help her become stronger quickly, Shiina Mahiru remained silent and pretended not to know.

"Well, luckily I tried asking today and found out your attitude, Mahiru-chan, otherwise we might really have missed it."

As he spoke, Hoshino Sora showed a happy expression on his face.

If he hadn't been too depressed to see the other person today, so he suddenly revealed his secret, he might never know Mahiru Shiina's thoughts in this life.

They were obviously the first people to get to know each other, and they had a period of ambiguity with each other, but their relationship ended like a joke.

The reason is also very simple, that is, neither of them takes the initiative, and both hold back their inner thoughts, which is why this situation is created.

Standing up and hugging Mahiru Shiina, Hoshino Sora didn't have any evil thoughts, but felt happy in his heart because he almost lost such a cute girl.

"Come to my room tonight, I have something to show you..."

After confirming Hoshino Sora's intention, Shiina Mahiru also became brave. She opened her mouth and whispered softly in his ear. When she said the last word, the girl's cheeks turned red.

"it is good!"

Hearing Shiina Mahiru's words, Hoshino Sora's eyes suddenly lit up. After replying with a "good" word, he was about to leave. Before leaving, he turned around again: "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook it for you."

"Just eat whatever you want. I can support myself very well."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Shiina Mahiru spoke half-jokingly. Her innocent look was really cute, and there was no trace of the haze in front of her at all.

Although the game was lost, love was gained.

Although this love needs to be shared with many girls, at this moment, Shiina Mahiru found that she didn't care much, but felt a little excited.

And I can be best friends with Xiaohui forever!

Thinking of this, Shiina Mahiru smiled even happier.

----------

After delivering the meal and leaving Mahiru Shiina's room, Hoshino Sora went upstairs, returned to the room, closed the door, and entered the food manor directly.

With a flash of white light in the sky, Hoshino Kong disappeared in place. When he opened his eyes again, he had appeared in a field full of fruits and vegetables.

At this time, most of the fruits and vegetables in the manor were ripe. Hoshino Sora ignored them and walked straight to a pepper field in the distance. Most of the peppers used in Sichuan cuisine are grown here.

Looking at the bright red peppers hanging high on the branches, Hoshino Sora had a look of satisfaction on his face.

After picking off a two-thorn tree, all the information about this chili pepper immediately came to his mind.

Ingredients: two vitex trees

Grade: Bronze

Applicable dishes: spicy chicken, fish head with chopped pepper...

"The fruits are actually Bronze-level. I remember that the seeds I planted were Black-Iron-level seeds. And these, although they vary in size, are all Bronze-level ingredients."
