New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 83 Competition
This day is finally here.

Early in the morning, Lei Ye was awakened by the sound of magic fireworks exploding. He looked out the window sleepily and saw balls of magic exploding in the air.

Judging from the number of magic fireworks, they must be the work of the maids.

Today is a very important day for the Aier family. After this day, the head of the Aier family will be replaced.

This is also a very important day for Lei Ye. This is his last day in this save file. After today, he can go find Buyadi.

He stroked Jiejie's little head in the quilt, but did not wake her up.

Put on your clothes and go outside.

He stood alone in the corridor, listening to the sound of the little pink-haired kids running on the carpet, the sound of magic fireworks exploding outside, the sound of high heels tapping the ground, and there were several new pink-haired guests in the reception room, mature women like Mama, who were discussing something loudly.

It seems to be talking about how Madam Mama suddenly became younger.

After mastering the production and assembly of the magic will-o'-the-wisp, Lei Ye has been living a peaceful life waiting for this day. At this moment, his heart is quite calm, and he is even thinking about how he can die without so much pain.

I didn't pay much attention to it when it happened hundreds of times in a row, but I really need to be mentally prepared for it to happen again after a month.

He did not go to meet the new ladies, but went to the competition venue alone. There was no one there, so he found a seat in a corner and sat down.

There probably won't be any alchemy classes today because all the alchemy equipment has been moved to the stage over here.

As a family of alchemists, the first game is naturally alchemy.

The content is also very simple. Use the same materials to make five potions, conduct comprehensive evaluation, and the one with the highest score wins.

It really feels like a sports meet.

Lei Ye wiped his face and sat quietly for a long time. Buyadi's face appeared in his mind.

He calculated carefully, and excluding the erased time, the time he and Buyadi spent together was not very long, only about a month.

However, the impression this girl left on him was extremely shocking. That girl with a great figure and a twisted personality, Lei Ye still felt that she would suddenly come out while sitting here, and sit next to him carelessly, looking at him with her bright red eyes, and said, "It's strange, you got along well with other girls during these days when I was away."

Even if it was because of pressure, Lei Ye wanted to see her a little.

This longing made him feel relieved, and he felt that he could say goodbye to this archive with confidence.

After a while, people began to enter the room and Lei Ye stood up and left.

Returning to the bedroom, he threw his clothes to Lestar.

I went to Hillius two days ago and bought a slightly exaggerated Gothic dress there, just like the one Jiejie was wearing when I first met her.

Today is Jiejie’s last dance, so let her perform on stage in a gorgeous way.

"Oh, oh, it's great to have such beautiful new clothes to wear, Miss Jiejie." Rasta, who was helping Jiejie get dressed, took over the dress and immediately took off the coat Jiejie had just put on and put on the new outfit. At the same time, she stole a glance at Lei Ye and whispered, "Oh, it's so great. When can I get new clothes from the master? If it's the reward for the job of hugging pillows, I'm willing to do it too."

71.

Using the magic eye, I saw that her favorability was catching up with Buyadi.

Perhaps, after the favorability exceeds the limit of 49, even if you do nothing, as long as you don't do anything specifically to lower your favorability, this value will slowly rise on its own.

It may also be because Lasda is a succubus and has a unique and wonderful way of self-attack at night.

But.

Since it was today, it didn’t matter. She probably had no chance of catching up with Buyadi.

Lei Ye rummaged through his storage bag and took out a beautiful maid outfit, which he had bought when he went to Hillius.

Compared with the maid outfit on Lestar, it is not as attractive. It is more similar to the authentic maid outfit worn by the maids in the Aier family. It cost a lot of money and is a custom-made good outfit.

He threw the clothes to Lestar.

“Eh, eh eh eh? Master, master, master?!”

There really was a gift for her, but Lesta was stunned in disbelief.

However, who else could the maid outfit be given to except her? Although Lasda was stupid, she soon realized this. She took the expensive maid outfit at a loss.

Squat down a little bit.

He held the clothes in his arms and pretended to wipe away his tears.

"Wu, ah, someone like me also has new clothes to wear. I've already noticed that the master has no interest in me and I'm trying to suppress my feelings. In this case, what should I do..."

What are you doing, Lesda?

It's just a piece of clothing, it's so easy to handle.

"Thank you, Lesda, for taking such good care of me. Thank you for liking me. Next time, and the next time, I will prepare new clothes for you and continue to let you be my personal maid."

Lei Ye held Jiejie under his armpit, patted Lasda on the shoulder, and walked out the door.

"I'm sorry, Lesda. As for the next time and the next time, I will try my best not to make you like me again."

He didn't say anything or look back.

Bring Jiejie back to the venue.

Although Jiejie's appearance did not create a shocking effect for the whole audience, this new outfit also made the eyes of the pink-haired kids, big and small, brighten. Lei Ye glanced at the stage without paying attention to other people's eyes. It seemed that he successfully skipped the boring opening remarks. At this moment, some pink-haired kids had gone up to start refining potions.

Lei Ye found a seat in a corner and asked Jiejie to sit next to him and watch silently.

There are also gaps among alchemists.

The little pink-haired girl on the stage may look a little taller than Jiejie, but she is a real child. Her technical skills are far worse. Although she is skilled in operating the instruments, she is not so good at identifying the materials and controlling the dosage. One of the five bottles of medicine she produced was even burnt black residue.

Lei Ye used his magic eyes to take a look and found that the other four bottles were all common potions on the market, and their quality did not seem to be very good.

But since they are kids, this is great.

However, unlike the happy little pink-haired girl who had been running around in the past few days, she was trembling and gritting her teeth on the stage. Rather than being unwilling, she seemed to be cowering from something.

Following her occasional glances at the audience, Lei Ye saw a certain pink-haired guy glaring at her with disappointment.

Oh, this is so boring.

Lei Ye suddenly felt a little bored. He squinted his eyes and closed them to rest, not planning to continue watching.

After a while.

Someone sat quietly beside him.

"It feels like I haven't seen you for a while. Are you doing well here these days?"

Lei Ye tilted his head and saw that it was Ai Er Mei Mei who was dressed up. This woman who had rarely appeared in public had a confident smile on her face today and looked very proud.

Glancing at Jiejie who had changed into new clothes, her smile froze for a moment.

"Fortunately, my opponent is my mentally retarded sister, not you. I heard that your foundation is very good. After only one month of training, mom said that you have reached the level of a high-level alchemist, and occasionally you can make potions that have never appeared before. In a sense, you may be more talented than my sister."

"Suddenly flattering me?"

"I'm not flattering you. I'm just telling you the truth. It's unheard of to have such talent. You deserve this praise. So I thought about it and I have something to discuss with you." Meimei's smile became a little charming. "You should still remember the deal at the beginning, right? You learned alchemy, and then you canceled Jiejie's slave contract and gave her freedom."

"But that doesn't apply to me. After I become the new head of the family, I will kick him and Lili out of the mansion. Seeing her like this, it would be better for her to stay with you."

"Birth." Lei Ye commented concisely.

Meimei's face froze again, as if the next sentence she was about to say was stuck.

She gritted her teeth and took a deep breath without making any expression.

"How about marrying me?"

Only then did he spit out this explosive statement.

Neuropathy.

It took Lei Ye a few seconds to understand what Meimei was saying. He immediately used his magic eyes to check Meimei's favorability towards him and found that not only had it not increased, it was actually lower than at the beginning.

So she suddenly talked about getting married. Did she finally want to do something to herself? Was she poisoning me?

Although he was regarded as a succubus, Lei Ye was not interested in such romantic opportunities. He looked at Mei Mei coldly, waiting for her next words.

"Brave man, if you work hard, you will become a noble. Your power can protect this place. You are also a truly excellent alchemist. The formula in your mind is even more important than your status as a noble. The rise of the Aier family requires some powerful new formulas. For example, the potion you made that made my mother's skin younger will definitely sell well and bring the Aier family's potions back into the public eye."

She nodded her head with her finger and leaned closer. "So, you are fully qualified to be a man of the Aier family, and what I can provide you is a huge amount of money. As long as you don't squander it too much, the assets of the Aier family are enough for you to not work for the rest of your life. Of course, the premise is that you can provide those interesting formulas."

"I see. A long-term, stable transaction, huh?"

Lei Ye nodded, understanding what she meant, and then asked back.

"Then the question is, my formula is so good, why don't I set up Lei Ye's family, and then sell it myself and make money? Without the middleman to make a profit, it is obvious that I can make more money."

Hearing this, Ai Er Meimei's face turned dark.

After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out the words to respond.

"Your medicine is suitable for the high-end market, and it doesn't have the reputation of Aierjia for promotion."

Lei Ye took out a small sign.

(Teacher Ohno's egg fried rice)
It says so.

Looking at this thing, Ai'er Meimei's face became even darker. She had indeed investigated Lei Ye and knew what 'Teacher Ohno' meant, but at that time she thought that no matter how famous he was, he was just a cook, so it didn't matter, until recently she learned from Madam Mama about the special effects of Lei Ye's food.

In a sense, 'Teacher Ohno' has already successfully opened up the market for Hillius, and it can be resurrected as a legendary brand at any time. Its commercial value is self-evident.

Meimei took a deep breath, as if she had finally decided to use her trump card.

"I am still a good woman, right? Women in the Aier family are essentially devoted. Marry me. I know you don't like me, but I am willing to cooperate with whatever way you want to play."

Lei Ye couldn't help laughing.

Ugly!
What an ugly thing!
He shook his head in disdain.

"Then here comes the question, Miss Meimei. I am so rich, how could I still be in need of a good woman?"

Talking about this topic, Lei Ye couldn't help but feel a little proud. "Besides, even if I'm not that rich, I don't look like a man who is unpopular with women. My charm has been so strong recently. Not to mention others, there are many maids in this house who have a crush on me."

Hearing this, Mei Mei tilted her head in surprise and looked at Lei Ye.

After hesitating for a moment, she asked back with a look of doubt.

"But, I think you still look like a virgin."

Lei Ye was unhappy.

His heart instantly turned red, and he even subconsciously picked up the holy sword.

As soon as the Holy Sword stretched out his hand, the magic bubble disappeared. Ai'er Meimei, who had been twisting her body and getting close to the Holy Sword, suddenly stepped back and stared at the Holy Sword with a look that was difficult to interpret.

Just at this moment, the silhouette of the holy sword flashed before Lei Ye's eyes.

An expression as if she had mustered up the courage to step out of the room flashed across Shengjian's face, and then she couldn't hold on for a few seconds, and knelt on the ground, retching violently.

Since the day she was sealed, she would occasionally appear suddenly like this, and then disappear with a hideous face.

The cold look when we first met is long gone.

In a sense, the Holy Sword is not a bad thing. At least even after being treated like this, she did not show any hatred towards Lei Ye. Instead, she would occasionally beg for mercy from Lei Ye during her repeated struggles, saying that she would definitely help him in the future.

To be honest, it's pretty cool to see her like this.

It's like the meticulous but clumsy study committee member in the class was coerced and compromised by the bad boy in the class.

However, because it was indeed a bit disgusting, Lei Ye didn't want to deal with it for the time being, so he just sealed the holy sword with a magic bubble.

It will be rolled back anyway, it's okay.

The next save will be clean.

As for the formula, he will give it to her when the time comes. Lei Ye will watch Jiejie complete the game and the transaction with Holy Sword. As for whether Holy Sword will go back on his word at that time, he is not worried. Anyway, there is no limit to the legendary materials and they can be filled up at any time.

And now
Lei Ye hurriedly used magic bubbles to seal the holy sword again, but a certain unpleasant smell still gushed out, causing Mei Mei to step back again and again.

Her expression became increasingly unflattering.

The conversation ended here, and the little pinkies had finished making the potion.

Next is Lili's turn.

The big guy was quite good at making potions, at least not too bad, enough to crush those little pink-haired girls. As she went on stage, Meimei also stood up with a sigh, adjusted her dress and walked towards the stage.

She turned around and glanced at Lei Ye.

"Anyway, this is what I mean. I know you don't like me, and I also know you know I don't like you, but I have to admit that you are really amazing. Consider my proposal. I'll be waiting for you."

"Then you have to win first." Lei Ye snorted.

Meimei, who was walking forward, suddenly raised her neck arrogantly.

A certain sense of pride in her victory was her response to Lei Ye's words.

Lei Ye crossed his legs and turned his head to the side.

Jiejie, who was sitting obediently beside her, still looked silly.

He took out the bottle of intelligence recovery potion that he had prepared earlier and fed it to her.
