The all-powerful middle schooler

Hanegawa Izumi answered casually.

After all, it is a masterpiece of childhood sweethearts, and it would be unreasonable not to collect it.

Although a lot of it was forced in by Eriri.

After the tour, everyone stopped on the second floor.

This is a vacant room with a balcony.

Izumi Hanegawa cleaned up the room in advance and used it as a backup activity room for the Far East Magic Society. The layout was rather rough, with a sofa and a small square table, similar to the one in school.

"Do you have any questions?"

Hanezegawa Izumi sat opposite and asked everyone,

The girls looked at each other and asked different questions.

The questions they asked were all about aspects that their roles were not good at, but the minister's answers could be heard by everyone to avoid the possibility of their identities being exposed.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye it was almost dusk.

"Okay, you guys continue your conversation. I'm going to go prepare dinner for today."

Having said that, Hanezegawa Izumi turned around and went downstairs.

Half an hour later.

The dining table downstairs is located with an induction cooker in the center.

There is a nine-grid pot on the stove. The soup in the pot is boiling, exuding a rich aroma, which is the taste of chili, pepper and various spices, making people salivate.

On the dining table, all kinds of ingredients were neatly arranged. The emerald green vegetables, bright red meat slices, golden tofu skin, and seafood soaked in clear water all looked so tempting.

“It tastes really spicy.”

Rikka Takanashi was slightly embarrassed.

"Wow, what a bright red soup pot! This is my first time eating death, it smells so good!"

Toumori Sanae fanned the air with her hands, sniffed the scent, and said with an intoxicated look.

"This color is not good, right?"

There was a hint of fear in Natsukawa Masuzu's eyes.

"Are you scared now? If you can't stand it, then give up and go buy a pack of instant noodles now."

Seeing this, Nibutani Morika quickly provoked the other party.

"Who said I was scared! It's just a little chili."

Xiachuan Zhenliang immediately patted his chest and waved his hand.

“Kukuku… This feeling is exactly what I want!”

Xiaojiu, who always had a strong taste, tapped his chopsticks and became even more excited.

"It's ready, put your favorite ingredients in it."

Izumi Hanegawa estimated that the time was right and looked up and said.

Everyone started to take action and put the ingredients into the nine-square grid close to their position. As the ingredients rolled in the pot, the unique aroma became stronger, making people want to pick up their chopsticks.

"I'm gonna start now."

When the ingredients are cooked, everyone starts to eat.

The first bite...

"The taste is not as spicy as I imagined."

"It seems that I am scaring myself."

“The peppers look plentiful, but they’re actually not very good.”

A few minutes later.

"Minister, please give me soy milk, I can't stand it!"

"Oh no, my tongue is starting to fail..."

"Hiss~ Not spicy death!"

Twenty minutes passed.

"Why is it getting spicier the more you eat?"

"But it feels so good, I can't stop."

"Uh... I've heard that if you eat too much chili, you might..."

"Stop talking! We're eating!"

The girls were already sweating and their faces were red.

A long time passed after the meal.

Their expressions gradually returned to normal.

"I told you not to force it."

Looking at everyone's miserable condition, Izumi Hanegawa made a joke nearby.

"Not at all forced! Next time, Toumoshi will want death again!"

“It’s actually quite delicious.”

“It’s nice to eat once in a while.”

"Minister, to be honest, this is the first time I feel so excited. You have successfully cured my anorexia!"

They expressed enthusiastically.

Although I was not used to the taste, after the seasoning of Hanezegawa Izumi, I still ate it until my stomach was full even if I complained.

"Speaking of eating... I suddenly remembered something."

Izumi Hanegawa smiled, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.

"In fact, if you want to increase your spiritual power, you can also do it through food supplements."

Food supplement? Increase spiritual power?

The girls listened attentively.

This is the most important point!

"Yes, if it were now, there would be some 'fantasy ingredients' that did not exist before. Eating them would increase spiritual power... Just like modern people want to build muscles, in addition to scientific exercise, diet is also indispensable. This is the so-called food supplement."

he continued.

"Then won't we be able to...recover to our full glory soon?"

A glimmer of hope appeared in Natsukawa Masuyoshi's eyes.

"Of course, this process is extremely wasteful. Unless you have the power of the 'gourmet cells' system, it is impossible for you to rely on this to quickly increase your spiritual power... and there aren't that many 'fantasy ingredients' in this world, right?"

He shook his head.

The girls all showed a hint of disappointment.

"But..."

His next words aroused everyone's emotions again.

15 The source of the second

“If the chef reaches a high enough level and can cook ‘fantasy ingredients’, he or she can also extract the essence of the fantasy ingredients to a certain degree for the diners to absorb.”

He continued.

"What do you mean by a high enough level? Is the level of a Saint Conditioner enough?"

Rikka Takanashi asked tentatively.

"Of course the cooking level is good enough, but if there is no way to awaken it again, it will not work...Spiritual power is an indispensable part."

He shook his head.

"Then can we learn it by ourselves? According to what you said, seeker, what is required is the level of cooking skills, not the awakening of related abilities, right?"

Nibutani Morika keenly grasped this point.

"Although anyone can become a food god, are you sure you can do both? It's impossible for most people to do both."

His question instantly stumped the girls, leaving them all speechless.

It is not worthwhile to deliberately give up one's advantages and do things that one is not good at. What's more, it is not necessary for them.

However, even without a spiritual chef, fantasy ingredients are always useful.

"Sage, can the Soul-Losing Grass also be eaten?"

Suddenly, Toumori Sanae's eyes moved.

"You little clever guy."

The corner of Hanegawa Izumi's mouth twitched.

"In theory, yes, but I don't recommend it because it has a greater effect in other aspects... Fantasy ingredients don't just refer to plants and animals that contain spiritual power, they also have different 'medicinal properties'. If you're not careful, you might even kill yourself if you eat them."

“What a pity.”

The girls' expressions all conveyed the same meaning.

You are really hungry.

He complained in his mind.

"Kukuku... Your topic is really interesting."

Xiaojiu, who had been listening for a long time without understanding anything, said something to save his face.

outside the gate.

"Minister, are you sure you don't want to keep me?"

"determine."

The silver-haired beauty put on a very hurt expression, but was still ruthlessly rejected by him.

"Don't go crazy here."

"I don't want it, I don't want it! Don't separate me from the Minister...!"

Nibutani Morika couldn't bear it anymore, so she reached out and grabbed her shoulders and dragged her away.

"Goodbye, sage."

"Sage, say goodbye to death!

Rikka Takanashi and Sanae Toumori waved goodbye one by one.

"Goodbye, everyone."

He also waved.

Just after they walked a distance away, the girls' expressions suddenly became serious again.

"I think we all have the same idea about what the Minister just said, right?"

Natsukawa Makoto's ice-blue eyes sparkled brightly under the moonlight.

"It's really too slow to practice on our own. It would be great if there was a way to improve it."

Nibutani Morika nodded.

Spiritual power is the foundation of spiritual practice. The stronger the spiritual power, the stronger the ability that can be displayed after awakening will naturally be.

So, there is no way they would give up on this.

Since they themselves are unable to take on the role of spiritual chef, they have no choice but to choose someone else to take on the role.
