People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Lucifer and the others watched with amusement, and as Bai Yu fought, he sighed, stood up, and said, "Alright, then how do we determine a winner?"

Hong Meiling said in a deep voice, "Whoever reaches the ground first loses!"

Bai Yu nodded, and Hong Meiling struck a pose with a hint of excitement in her smile, saying, "Hong Meiling, please enlighten me."

"Can we start?"

Hong Meiling nodded, and then felt her feet slip and fall. When she came to her senses, she had already fallen, but she didn't actually fall to the ground. Bai Yu caught her with the back of his foot.

"I should have won."

Hong Meiling was stunned for two seconds before she rolled over and stood up, her eyes shining as she said, "Manager Bai Yu, you're amazing! What just happened?"

Simply put, I just kicked the sole of your foot.

"Huh?! Is it because my lower body is unstable?"

"You probably didn't realize it yet."

"Oh... But Manager Shiraha, you're amazing! I didn't even feel anything happen!"

Just as Bai Yu was about to speak, he heard Hong Meiling shout, "Please, Shopkeeper Bai Yu, take me as your apprentice!"

Bai Yu sighed and said, "Why is everyone taking on apprenticeships lately? The restaurant is turning into a cram school."

Lucifer rolled his eyes and said, "You're doing alright, I'm the one who should be having a headache..."

Hong Meiling was stunned for a moment, then said excitedly, "Manager Bai Yu! You agree?!"

"I..."

"Master! Please give me your guidance! I will study hard!"

Bai Yu sighed and said, "I haven't agreed yet..."

Hong Meiling scratched her head before smiling and saying, "Master! I'll make you change your mind!"

Seeing Hong Meiling's serious expression, Bai Yu said somewhat helplessly, "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me. As for becoming my apprentice... well, never mind, that's it then. It really is either zero times or countless times..."

"That's wonderful! Master! I won't let you down!"

When Hong Meiling ran back to deliver the good news, Bai Yu was holding his forehead with one hand, feeling a bit of a headache. With Saki, Izayoi Sakuya, and Hong Meiling, Bai Yu felt that he would never be able to have any peace and quiet at night again.

Chapter 901 The Seventeen-Year-Old Beauty's Final Test (Please Subscribe~)

That's roughly what happened. In short, Yakumo Cheng became the group's darling and really liked Cerberus, perhaps because Cerberus was a hellhound.

Patchouli became a regular at exchanging magical techniques, and Hong Meiling pestered Shiraha every day to learn combat skills. Marisa, seeing this, even remarked, "You guys are really starting to treat this place like your second home."

Sakuya Izayoi was taken aback, but Remilia said with a smile, "I didn't even notice until you mentioned it... But it's too boring if it's just Sakuya and me here."

Eirin Yagokoro, only then realizing what was happening, said with some surprise, "It seems that everyone from your respective places is here except for Marisa and our Eientei."

Yuuka Kazami's eyes twitched. She was the only powerful youkai living alone, surrounded by a flower field, and that was it. Reimu was about to speak when Marisa said疑惑地, "Hmm? Really? Reimu, isn't that what you're doing over there..."

"What does her being a guardian of the arrow have to do with my Hakurei? That idiot is far from being good enough."

Yukari Yakumo chuckled and said, "Oh my, Reimu, you're surprisingly reliable."

"I think it's because Yuyuko hasn't contacted you that you've been so relaxed lately."

"Forehead..."

Yakumo Yukari stopped talking. She suddenly felt that her status was very low. Thinking of this, Yakumo Yukari took out a mobile phone from the gap and started chatting in the group.

This group is naturally the one for Kobayashi Rindou and the others, and what's really interesting is that Yakumo Yukari's nickname is: "A beautiful girl of seventeen...".

Lucifer and the others were stunned. Where was their integrity?! Seventeen years old?! That's not even a fraction of seventeen! But Yukari Yakumo firmly insisted that she was really only seventeen. In the end, even Ran Yakumo couldn't stand it anymore and went to the side to listen to them talk about magic.

Hong Meiling looked at Bai Yu with some confusion and said, "Master! Why do you seem to be in a bad mood? Did something happen?"

Yuuko Ichihara asked in confusion, "Yeah, I noticed that too. What happened?"

Bai Yu said softly, "Tomorrow is the last day of Erina and the others' field study."

"Huh?!" xn

Lucifer remarked with a touch of melancholy, "Time flies... But perhaps only Little Peach will be able to stay, since she's going to be tested to become a pastry chef at WGO, right?"

Shiraha nodded without speaking, while Yakumo Yukari said with a slight headache, "It suddenly feels so deserted... But they can come back on the weekend, right?"

It would be unrealistic to say that there was no affection between them during this period. They probably all regarded each other as part of the store, and they felt that something was missing if any of them were gone.

Bai Yu said gently, "Gentian will definitely stay, and there's a high probability that Little Peach will stay, since it's practically the same as her graduation. As for the rest... summer vacation is coming soon, and they might come over, but they have their own work to take care of. Alice will probably go back to Northern Europe to find her mother."

"Sigh... So it's really hard to part ways after we've all come together."

Upon hearing Yuuko Ichihara's words, Lucifer retorted irritably, "How dare you say that? Erina and the others may be gone, but at least they're still in this world. You, who ran off to another world, dare to say such a thing?!"

"I...I'm here on official business!"

"You don't even have time to come home for dinner when you're busy with important business? What does your being busy with important business have to do with you not connecting to the world? You don't come home, you order takeout and then complain about it? You secretly died once and you're making a fuss about it?!"

Yuko Ichihara immediately covered her head and said, "Lucy... can we not talk about this?"

"Hmph! So you, this stubborn and willful guy, have no right to say that!"

Yuko Ichihara stopped talking and just sat quietly, holding onto Shiraha's arm. Lucifer had now perfectly inherited Yumiko's will. Yuko Ichihara suddenly thought about what it would be like when Lucifer and Yumiko got together in the future, and her head was about to explode.

Patchouli said softly, "Purple, it looks like your life is going to be very interesting."

"Um... I hope I won't do anything wrong."

Lucifer rolled his eyes and didn't say anything. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Bai Yu, should we remind them tomorrow?"

"There's no need. They remember this better than anyone else. There's no need for that. Let's give them a final assessment tomorrow. What do you think would be a good task for them?"

Yuko Ichihara said softly, "How about having them cook dinner?"

Everyone nodded. After thinking for a moment, Bai Yu smiled and said, "I think I know what kind of assessment to give them. I think the old man will like this assessment."

Lucifer was taken aback and asked in confusion, "You mean... you want to invite Grandpa Nakiri over for dinner?"

"No, Grandpa Senzaemon has been quite busy lately. What do you think would happen if we let Erina and the others each make a dish, and then let Klara and the other two rate it?"

Lucifer was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "You want them to improve one last time?"

Bai Yu nodded, and Hong Meiling asked in confusion, "Huh? What does that mean? Why is the evaluation 'another improvement'?"

Kazami Yuuka said softly, "Krachi and the others are already used to Shiraha's cooking and are quite picky eaters. Plus, Erina and the others often cook, so Krachi and the others are very familiar with it."

"so what?"

"So if it's for the sake of a score, and there's a fixed theme, and it's very formal, they'll improve again to impress Klara and the others. After all, if they do the same thing as usual, there's nothing to evaluate, right?"

Hearing Yakumo Yukari's words, Shiraha nodded, and Kurenai Meiling said in realization, "I see, as expected of Master! He really thought of everything!"

Yuuko Ichihara smiled and whispered softly in Shiraha's ear, "Shiraha, let's go on a date the day after tomorrow..."

Bai Yu turned to look at Ichihara Yuko before nodding and saying, "Sure, but you..."

Before Bai Yu could finish speaking, he saw Ichihara Yuko cover Bai Yu's mouth with one hand and whisper, "It's a secret~"

Chapter 902 Yumiko's Vacation, Shiranui's Return (Please Subscribe~)

Lucifer glanced at Yuuko Ichihara but didn't say anything, turning back to his phone to continue chatting. After a long while, he said in confusion, "Eh? Shiraha, Seigaku has a match tomorrow..."

"With whom? Yamabuki?"

"Huh?! How did you know?!"

Bai Yu waved his hand and said, "There are only a few junior high schools with the fighting strength to reach this level. I've seen a kid named Sengoku Kiyosumi from Yamabuki play basketball. He's not bad. If you think about it, this is basically the only school that can do it."

Yuko Ichihara asked doubtfully, "Shiraha, do you think Seigaku can win the championship? It's this tournament."

"Who knows? Overall, Hyotei isn't that weak. It would be interesting if they competed in the national tournament."

When will the national competition be held?

"Summer vacation is better, after all, many schools can't let students miss so many classes, especially schools like Higa Junior High and Shitenhoji, which are quite far away. Generally speaking, summer vacation is better."

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "Huh? Now that you mention it, I suddenly feel like this summer vacation is going to be very fulfilling. Let me think... going to the beach, watching competitions, WGO, parties..."

Bai Yu paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "A party? What kind of party?"

Lucifer coughed lightly and said, "You don't need to know that. This is our private gathering. In this matter, your job is just to stay alive."

"Um... I have a feeling you guys are going to discuss something really weird."

“Not strange at all! This is perfectly normal, right, Yuuko!”

Yuko Ichihara thought for a moment before nodding and saying, "Hmm, that makes a lot of sense. Speaking of which, it seems like everyone who's coming this time will be there."

"Of course... Eh? Shiraha, is the vacation that Yumiko wants the summer vacation you mentioned?"

Bai Yu nodded and said, "That's right, and then Yumiko will have to continue working overtime after summer vacation to prepare for the next long vacation."

"The next long holiday? Winter break?"

Bai Yu shook his head and said, "No, have you ever seen a winter vacation in November, which is still late autumn?"

"November? Huh? What month is that...?"

Bai Yu didn't say anything, only that it was an interesting training camp. In the other room, Qingxingdeng looked at Shiranui and asked in confusion, "A-Li, do you really want to go back?"

Shiranui sighed and said, "I don't want to go back. I want to stay by Baiyu's side forever, but... Liren Pavilion can't leave me either, can it?"

"Do you remember what Yuuko said? You will face a calamity, and the only place in that world where you can encounter this calamity is the Liren Pavilion. If you don't go back, perhaps nothing will happen to you?"

Shiranui shook her head and said, "No, it's not just my calamity, it's also the calamity of the Liren Pavilion. Aoandon, do you think that if it really is my calamity... if I'm gone, the Liren Pavilion will be alright?"

"That's true... The Pavilion of Parting Can't do without you. That powerful figure will eventually find out you're gone and will definitely hold a grudge against the Pavilion of Parting. After all, Cerberus and the others said that there isn't much magic power left, and it should be running out soon..."

Shiranui sighed and said, "That's why I have to go back, even though I have a life I can't even imagine now. Liren Pavilion is where I was raised. I don't know how much longer I can dance there, but I do know that this may be the last time I go back."

Aoandon said with a slight headache, "Okay... but I'll probably go back a few more times. Ari, are you really not planning to travel with me then?"

"Aoandon, I am not you. I don't have such lofty ambitions. I just want to live according to my own wishes, to be a quietly blooming flower here, or a butterfly fluttering beside him..."

Aoandon sighed and said, "Alright, once I've traveled all over Japan, I guess I won't leave anymore..."

"Then your ghost stories...."

Aoandon chuckled and said, "I think the biggest mystery in the world isn't creation, but disappearance. Because once something disappears, no one knows whether it's true or false. Many people have seen me, but I suddenly vanished. Don't you think that's the biggest mystery?"

Shiranui paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yeah! And Aoandon... you don't really want to go back, do you...?"

Aoandon blushed and coughed lightly, saying, "I'm not you, we're different."

"What's the difference! It's just that you've never understood matters of the heart!"

Aoandon said irritably, "What relationship problems? Never mind... What I meant by different is that I'm floating, while you're standing."

"Huh?! That's cheating! It's your light that's floating, not you!"

"I am Aoandon, and the lantern is a part of me. Why would I be considered cheating?"

"You're cheating!"

While Aoandon and Shiranui were chatting, Erina sighed in the other room and said, "Tomorrow is the last day..."

Hisako said dejectedly, "Erina-san... there's nothing we can do about it..."

While watching TV, Kobayashi Rindou said irritably, "Why are you three so disappointed?"

Alice said with a pained expression, "Because the field trip is ending soon... and we have to go back to school soon, I don't want to leave..."

Erina and Hisako nodded in agreement. It was much better here than at school. Every day was lively and they could learn new things. Nakiri Managi was also here. This period had been the happiest time for Erina and the others.

Kobayashi Rindou said irritably, "You can come back to stay on Friday night and go back on Monday or Sunday night. It makes no difference, and summer vacation is coming soon."

Alice paused, then sighed and said, "I should probably go back to Northern Europe..."

"Then where do you want to go?"

"Of course I want to stay here!"

"Why don't you just say it? The commander-in-chief will agree. As for Erina, you can try the food. You don't have classes, and you have plenty of free time. You still have to come back at night anyway, so it's no different. Just think of it as a kindergarten kid going to full-time daycare."

Erina's lips twitched as she said, "Something feels off, but I don't feel so disappointed anymore... As expected of Rindou-nee..."
