People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"That's true, but Elma, are you okay living here? After all, you can't generate magic on your own."

"Ah... I've already solved this problem. Didn't I sign a contract with Bai Yu? And Bai Yu is invincible, right? So my life leveled up. It's the contract Yuko signed."

"So now I can convert energy super efficiently, maintain my functions with minimal energy, and absorb some of the surrounding magic more efficiently, so I can easily get full."

"Huh?! That's amazing?"

"Ok!"

Chapter 692 Understanding Tatemu's Little Thoughts, the Casual Lucoa (Please Subscribe~)

Lucoa was quite surprised by this, not expecting it to have such an effect. This would be extremely useful for dragons living in the human world, especially dragons like Elma who cannot generate magic on their own.

"So, Elma, did you sign the contract because it allowed you to advance your life?"

Elma shook her head and said, "Not entirely. First of all, life advancement is definitely a good thing, but I wouldn't just sign a contract with someone so easily. I really like life here, and I plan to live in the human world. Lucy and the others are very nice to me. Besides, I asked Bai Yu a question..."

"what?"

After Elma finished speaking, Lucoa nodded in surprise and said, "She really is a very special person. If I couldn't generate magic power freely, I would have signed a contract with her."

"Huh? Lucoa, if you're going to sign a contract too, and you can generate magic, then what's the purpose of your link? It's not just to be able to eat, is it?"

"That's part of the reason, but I mostly eat just to enjoy the food. I originally planned to stay in the human world, and I also intend to take care of Sagiri. Sagiri trusts Mr. Shiraha, so I want to give it a try."

Erma propped her chin on her hand and said, "Eh? Is that so? It seems like you and that girl named Sagiri really get along very well, Lucoa."

"Hmm... because she's really well-behaved, like she's taking care of a younger sister. The key thing is that the girl gives me a familiar feeling, just like I used to be, all alone in this world."

"Sagiri really wants to muster up the courage to leave her room and come to the shop for a proper meal so she can have a normal conversation with Mr. Shiraha, but she just hasn't been able to muster the courage. But I feel like Mr. Shiraha can do it, so I'm really curious."

Erma breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You're really confident. But it's not a big deal. Shiraha is indeed very powerful. So, if Sagiri doesn't come out, you're not planning to go out?"

"That's not it. I just don't really feel like going out for leisurely strolls, like grocery shopping or going out to buy clothes. I usually stay at home with Sagiri."

"Hmm? So what do you all do at home?"

"Hmm... watching movies, reading the novels that Sagiri received, doing housework, sleeping, being Sagiri's model, and things like that."

"A model? What does she do? Why do we need a model?"

Lucoa tilted her head and said, "She's an illustrator, and she's really good at drawing illustrations. Sometimes she'll look at some weird comics and say she doesn't have any inspiration, so she insists that I be her model. She always says... Lucoa, you just need to sit there."

"Sit down?"

"Hmm, she said that just sitting there doing nothing is already very tempting... Huh? Is it?"

"Uh..."

Lucifer and the others nearly choked to death! What on earth was Izumi Sagiri drawing?! And does Lucoa have absolutely no awareness of her own body shape?! Or is she just pretending to be cute?!

Elma and Lucoa were chatting, and Lucifer and the others would occasionally chime in. However, since the two were having such a mundane conversation, there was nothing juicy to hear, so Lucifer and the others didn't feel like joining in and just went about their own business.

"Huh? A hot spring? It sounds nice... but I still have to take care of Sagiri..."

Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If only that girl could come out. The family is very curious about her. She's completely different from Xiao Qiong back then. We still don't know what she looks like... Eh?"

"Well?"

Lucifer's eyes lit up and he said, "Miss Lucoa, you must have seen Sagiri's true face!"

"Of course, why?"

“Miss Lucoa, would you mind sharing that girl’s memories?”

"Memory? Oh! You mean that kind of projection-like magic?"

"So you knew, huh? You just wanted to see what that girl looked like."

Lucoa nodded and said, "That's no problem. That girl is very cute, but none of you have seen her before... Oh right, I almost forgot that Mr. Shiraha has never seen what Sagiri looks like either. Let's wait until Mr. Shiraha arrives to see her."

"No problem, but you agreed so readily. I thought you wouldn't show it to us because Sagiri doesn't want to see other people."

Lucoa thought for a moment and said, "No, you didn't actually see Sagiri in person anyway, and Sagiri is really cute, so there's nothing wrong with seeing her, besides..."

"how?"

Lucoa shrugged helplessly and said, "Anyway, she doesn't know either."

"Uh..."

Do you think it's fair to say that Izumi Sagiri trusts you? However, while the words may be blunt, the reasoning is sound. Izumi Sagiri doesn't know either, and Lucoa really doesn't need to worry about anything. If Izumi Sagiri can sense this, then she's definitely beyond human capabilities.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Shinonono Houki finished practicing her sword and returned to her dormitory, intending to find Laura for dinner. However, she saw that Karashita Tateru had also arrived at her dormitory door.

"Hmm? You know Senior Sister Geng?"

"Yo! Houki!"

Seeing that Karashita Tateru had suddenly hugged her, Shinonono Houki sighed. After spending the summer together, she had become quite familiar with Karashita Tateru, and it seemed that this guy even wanted to be her older sister, so she didn't immediately kill him.

"Senior Gengshi, what brings you to my dorm? Is there something you need?"

"Hou, the school festival is coming up soon, it's time to get started. I'm planning to go to the store this Friday, do you want to come?"

"I can't go. I'll meet you again on Saturday. Brother Baiyu has some business to attend to on Friday, so he'll go to the hot springs in the evening and won't be open. The shop will only open on Saturday."

Narashita Tateru paused for a moment, then said, "Eh? Soaking in a hot spring? As expected of him... um... hot spring... hot spring... heh..."

Shinonono Houki said with a look of disgust, "Senior, why do you smile like a villain in a movie?"

"what?"

Chapter 693 What Karma Wants to Say, Lucoa's Surprise (Please Subscribe)

Thor also ran over midway and was very excited to see Lucoa. After learning about Lucoa's situation, Thor nodded in understanding and felt much more at ease. After all, Lucoa was no ordinary person, and her status and identity were also exceptionally high.

Xiaolin isn't here today; she's still working overtime. She messaged Thor, asking her to bring her some late-night snacks when she gets back, as she wants to eat something and get some rest early.

Before long, Lucoa's dinner was served. Lucoa's eyes widened. Goodness, it was a very sumptuous meal, and it looked exceptionally tempting.

Because Lucoa clearly intended to have a chat, and had quite an appetite, although she could generate magic on her own, so there was no need for her to consume as much food as Erma, she still swallowed hard when she reached the table of food in front of her.

Wow! What a sumptuous meal!

"Yes, it is indeed a very lavish meal. It seems that you really prepared it according to Elma's appetite, Manager Shiraha."

Eluma's eyes twitched but she didn't say anything. Bai Yu chuckled and said, "The sliced ​​roasted lamb leg and lamb chops, tofu and beef, braised duck, steamed grouper, a platter of roasted meats, and for the main course, I chose pork leg rice."

Lucoa swallowed hard and said, "This is pig's feet? Huh?"

"It's called pork knuckle rice, but actually it's mostly pork hock. There's not much to say about its characteristics: the skin is soft and chewy, the meat is tender and smooth, and it's fatty but not greasy, tender but not sticky. So, please enjoy, and also, Elma, your sake."

Lucoa breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Erma, you can eat with us."

"Huh? But I'm full... Hmm... I've finished my snacks with the drinks. Hey, Thor, have you eaten?"

Thor nodded and said, "I've already eaten. I just came to chat, but this looks very lavish. It would be great as a snack with drinks. Next time I come with Kobayashi for a late-night snack, we can order one."

"Xiao Lin?"

"Yeah, we used to live together, but now that you're here, I don't have to worry about any dragons causing trouble. It really puts my mind at ease."

Lucoa tilted her head and said, "Actually, it wasn't a big deal, since dragons generally don't have much interest in coming all this way to cause trouble."

“That’s true…”

"Right? Mmm! This is so delicious... As expected of Mr. Shiraha, your cooking skills are truly amazing. But this pork knuckle rice looks incredible. Mr. Shiraha, can this pork knuckle rice be ordered for delivery?"

"Of course, but you'll need to pack the pork hock and rice separately. They're essentially the same, or I could help you remove the meat from the pork hock so it will fit."

Lucoa nodded and said, "This is so satisfying to eat. The skin is so tender and the meat is so smooth and juicy. With the other ingredients in the rice, one bite feels like a complete cure."

"It's not that serious, but a meal that you can eat in big bites can definitely make you feel better."

"Hmm! Eh? Thor, if you come here and continue living with that Miss Kobayashi, does your father know?"

"I don't know...and I don't want to tell him..."

"Alright, whatever you want."

While looking at her phone, Lucifer asked with some confusion, "Honey, I just saw Kira and the others playing cards. Is there any significance to that?"

"They're probably just bored and want to play cards. After all, the battle for the student council president initiated by Kirari is practically over now, so they don't need to do anything. They might as well play cards to pass the time."

"I thought there was some kind of meaning behind it, but now that they're all done, they'll all be going to Shion's house. I feel like Akemi and Mashiro are going to be under a lot of pressure. Sigh... There's no news from Gion either. Karina hasn't sent any messages since she went back, so we can't go there yet."

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Why can't we get through?"

"Because if we went there, we definitely wouldn't be able to suppress our killing intent and would turn that Celestial Dragons' lair to ashes. Just thinking about it makes me angry. Hmm? Why haven't Zi and the others arrived today? Are they having another banquet?"

While drawing blueprints, Yuko Ichihara casually said, "Zi and the others are indeed having a banquet. They said they won't be coming today because they need to discuss some things and make a list."

"What list?"

"Honey's going over there, so I'll definitely have to cook a big meal again. Why don't you just have them make the menu? But speaking of which, honey, what about that bet you made with Yuuka? Are you planning to make it happen when you go to Gensokyo?"

Bai Yu paused for a moment and said, "No."

Yuuko Ichihara looked up and said, "That doesn't make sense. Why didn't you go and pick them yourself, or did Yuuka bring them back? Where did the flower field go? Huh?"

"We'll find out soon enough."

"Seriously... so mysterious... But Katarina is leaving too. Actually, she seems like a pretty nice person. Sigh, when will there be less conflict?"

....0 .......

"Once people develop a sense of power and values, conflicts are inevitable. However, I should take some time to visit Soraka's world."

Lucifer paused for a moment and asked, "Honey, where are you going?"

"It feels like a worthwhile trip, and who knows, I might even find some interesting ingredients and dishes..."

"Sure enough, just like when I play games, I have a strong desire to explore this kind of world."

"Well...actually, I also hope to meet Miss Karma."

"Why? If you have any questions about Ionia, why not just ask Akali? Why bother asking Miss Karma? Is it some kind of legendary story? Or some very secret?"

Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No... you could say that. Soraka gives me a strange feeling. Miss Karma should know something about it, because when Miss Karma came last time, I made eye contact with her a few times, all unintentionally, and I could sense that she seemed to have something to say."

"Is that so? Then we should definitely go and take a look. When do you plan to go?"

"We'll see. I should have time this month."

"Hmm..."

Chapter 694 Lucoa's Vigilance, the Sudden Arrival of Joichiro (Please Subscribe~)

Lucoa and the other two had a great time chatting. Knowing that Lucoa had some psychological trauma about alcohol, the three of them drank three bottles of peach blossom wine. They mainly chatted, but because of the two of them and Sagiri, and because Lucoa had a good impression of Shiraha, she soon started chatting with Shiraha and the others as well.

Just then, the shop door opened. There was no light; the customers were just ordinary people from this world. Lucifer and the others looked up, startled, and said, "Eh? Mr. Dojima, why are you here alone? Where is Grandpa Nakiri?"

"Ah, the Commander-in-Chief is on his way. I came to see him today. Manager Bai Yu, there's no need to order yet. I have something I want to talk to you about."

"Ok?"

Dojima Gin coughed lightly and said, "Someone booked out the Imperial Palace this Sunday to hold a banquet. They invited quite a few graduates to come along. One of the people in charge came over today and said they specifically invited you. Is that true?"

Bai Yu chuckled and said, "Yes, I promised them I would go, but who told them?"

"The name is a bit strange, it's called... Hellish Blizzard, just like what Miss Blizzard said. It seems that's right. I was a little surprised. I didn't expect that I could actually get you to come. It seems that you two are good friends."

"They are friends, and we have a good relationship... It depends on how you define it. However, they said I could just cook something simple, but since they came to see me in person, it would seem a bit casual if I cooked something too casual. As for the banquet... could you help me prepare something?"

"Hmm? Okay, go ahead and tell me, I'll get ready right away."

Bai Yu smiled and said, "No rush, I'll send it to your phone later. You can prepare tomorrow. Everything is provided by the palace. I'll bring anything that's not there myself."
