Offer blocks to the end times

By the time Ram came to call the two for dinner, the stack of documents, several tens of centimeters high, had been finished. Senju casually remarked that his World War had gone well, everything was going according to his expectations. Then he saw Ram pull out another stack of documents, a meter high! Just how many documents were still unprocessed?!

Chapter 1575 Posters and Acquaintances

Because there were too many documents, Senju, who was initially in high spirits, ran away after dinner, leaving them to review the documents. He said he would deal with anything important when he returned in the evening.

After a moment of silence, the two maids didn't press Senju to approve the documents. In truth, these documents weren't urgent at all, and it didn't matter whether Senju looked at them or not. The truly urgent documents were handled by the five departments first, and only when they couldn't handle them did they come to Senju.

Senju, who was strolling around outside, wasn't worried about his subordinates' betrayal. Putting aside their friendship and relationships, Senju could guarantee their strength. Even those transmigrators like himself, once they entered his world, Senju could also borrow their power.

Thinking of transmigrators, Senju thought of the system. This is what transmigrators must rely on at the beginning, otherwise, hehe, Senju seemed to see himself dying in the snowfield.

Thousand Hands casually looked around and noticed that there were many posters on the surrounding buildings. There were also many students discussing it. Thousand Hands glanced at them from afar and realized that it was a preview of a food battle between the two Saiba. It really needed something like this to make things exciting.

Judging from the students' excitement, you can tell how high-level this competition is. By the way, I also saw quite a few people from outside the school looking at the posters, and they were very excited too.

"As expected of Shura and his disciple," Senju said, then felt that something was off, but then again, nothing seemed wrong. This place really idolizes chefs.

Then Senju sensed someone approaching, turned around, and saw it was Kobayashi Rindou. "Senju-sama, aren't you going to challenge Commander Suzuki? He stole your position as commander."

"Hehe," looking at the girl who seemed to thrive on chaos, Senju shook her head helplessly.

He reached out and ruffled her hair. "I'm not really interested in cooking. Whoever wants to sit in that seat can sit there. You can sit there too."

"Don't touch a girl's head like that," Kobayashi Rindou took a step back, looking disappointed. "I misjudged you, Senju. I didn't expect you to say you're not interested in cooking. It's a good thing you didn't become the Supreme Commander."

“Yeah, I think so too,” Senju shrugged. He wasn’t interested in the commander-in-chief here anyway. He used to be the principal of the Hyperdimensional School, even if it was just a title.

However, Senju then thought of something. With a snap of his fingers, all the facilities and personnel of the school were instantly copied, and the copies appeared in the school world and then merged into it.

"Uh," Kobayashi Rindou, seeing Senju's expression, didn't know what to say. The other party had already stated they weren't interested; what could he say? Should he return the badge? How could that be possible? His cuisine specialized in rare ingredients; what could be rarer than ingredients from another world?

Thinking about it, Kobayashi Rindou licked his sharp teeth. He thought to himself, "My teeth seem much sharper these past few days. I can easily crush all kinds of hard snacks."

Seeing the girl's thoughts, Senju waved and left. "I have something to do, so I'll be going now. Tomorrow night's match is sure to be exciting, so remember to come watch!"

"Hmm, hmm?" Kobayashi Rindou nodded, then realized something was wrong. He was the chef, of course he should go and see, so why was he being told to go and see?

After giving Kobayashi Rindou a persuasive answer, Senju continued forward. Looking at the other person's name, Senju wondered if Kobayashi and Tohru had already started a relationship. She also wondered if the gift she gave last time (the book of magic for women to conceive) had worked.

Although wandering around was boring, Senju didn't go to the Polar Star Dormitory, since there were still people there preparing for the battle. However, after wandering around for a while, Senju saw a lot of people lying down under a poster, and there was a female ghost classmate laughing "hehehe" there.

Isn't that Nao Satsuka? Senju used 'purifying (stench) perfume' on her last time, but why are the students still collapsing? Senju took out her odor analyzer and felt around, only to find that the purifying perfume's effect had diminished by more than half. Although it still emitted fibers, its ability to purify the stench was insufficient. Meanwhile, she was carrying herring canned food with her. The combination of the two resulted in an exponential increase in lethality. The surrounding students were all 'subdued' without even realizing it, and they were all foaming at the mouth.

Looking at the information on the odor analyzer, Senju's face turned green. That combination of smells was like a nuclear bomb! It was too unfair. Just thinking about it made Senju feel nauseous. He then prepared to slip away. He couldn't afford to mess with such a big shot!

But she seemed to see Senju, and knew Senju, as she floated over quietly with a sinister look. "Wait, you are Lord Senju, right? I have something to ask you!"

"What's the matter?" Seeing her approach, Qian Shou, who was holding a beeping detector, took a step back. "Wait, how did you know mine?"

“I’m also a member of this organization,” Nao Satsuka showed Senju the badge on her chest. “Although I’ve only been a member for a couple of days, I know what you look like. I’d like to ask if there are any ingredients here that could produce a foul odor, like dried goods or canned food.”

"Uh, just for this?" Looking at the girl's eerie appearance, Senju felt that even with the scent barrier, the surroundings were still very dangerous. So he quickly pointed to Nao Satsuka's badge and added a lot of strongly scented ingredients to her, such as rotten flesh, fruit-type youmu juice, dried youmu, and so on. "It's done. Good luck."

After saying that, Senju ran away. The constantly beeping odor analyzer was really worrying about the surrounding air. After leaving that place, Senju felt that the air around him was much fresher.

However, Senju wondered who had recruited her. After looking at the number of badges, Senju realized that they had already developed a group of over a hundred people. The largest master-disciple chain had already reached seven generations, and Satsuka Nao was the fourth generation in one of those chains.

Thinking about it, Senju felt it was quite normal. After all, this followed the formula of Accel World, so wasn't it normal for this to happen? However, there wouldn't be a zero-score uninstall here.

Looking at the number of people inside, Senju suddenly had an idea: should they adopt the Accel World system? But then he shook his head. If the scores didn't change, fairness could be guaranteed to some extent, but if there were battles, or rather, food battles, many students would probably think, "Wait, there's a difference between battles and food battles. What are they thinking?"

Chapter 1576 Pre-match Time

Not quite understanding everyone's thoughts, Senju asked all the badge holders whether to start a virtual food battle mode. More than ninety holders agreed, so Senju referred to the competition rules of Accel World and established a virtual food battle world operating mode.

So, what should this be called? A Speeding Food War? A Running Dish? Well, it doesn't really matter anyway. Even if my points run out, I can still earn points by uploading dishes.

Then Qian Shou looked at the uploaded dishes; there were already over four hundred, though many were duplicates. She shook...

The system has been patched. For similar dishes, if the rating of a later upload is not as high as the rating of the previous upload, the points will be halved. The points will be halved again for the second similar behavior, and so on.

Even the best dishes will have low ratings after a few times like this. Of course, those who try to upload dishes alternately with good, bad, and good ratings will be dealt with in the same way, unless someone keeps raising the rating of a dish. Only a genius would do that.

After checking, Senju found that apart from a few bizarre dishes (high ratings but terrible smells), the other dishes were all great. It seems that the people who joined were not mediocre at all. Well, Senju felt that she could make these herself.

Senju took some pastries, ate them, and then returned to her residence. Ram and Rem were still working. Senju scratched her head, sat down, and started looking at the documents. After all, this was her job. So she spent the rest of the afternoon reviewing documents.

Well, although it was hard work, I still managed to finish processing the stack of documents that was over a meter high. I learned a lot from this experience, and with the company of two maids, I wasn't too impatient.

Dinner was ordered from a famous restaurant, and it tasted great. This made Senju realize that although Totsuki Culinary Academy is very important to the world, it is, in the end, just an academy. There are many, many more excellent chefs in the outside world.

After dinner, Senju played games while Ram reported on tomorrow's schedule. There was nothing planned for the daytime, but there was a food battle in the evening that Senju had mentioned, so they had already made a reservation to watch it.

"That's good, it's not bad to go and take a look," Senju nodded casually, continued playing on her phone, then washed up and went to bed, and the day ended just like that.

The second day was similar, but instead of reviewing documents during the day, he met with the heads of various departments. It was then that Senju realized that when he got serious, there was actually so much work to do.

William reported on the various large-scale paranormal events that had occurred in the world recently, including conflicts between magicians, the summoning of otherworldly creatures, wanton experiments, and the rampage of monsters, among other chaotic things, but all of these had been suppressed.

All of this was within Senju's expectations. The only thing that bothered him was that with the promotion of the land god system, the appearance rate of fairies and monsters in various places had also increased. However, Reimu on the other side looked drowsy and didn't care about any of this. After all, she was in charge of this area.

However, Reimu argued that she was only one person and it was already difficult enough to take care of Gensokyo. She couldn't possibly manage all the youkai in the world. Meanwhile, Yukari Yakumo suggested training the newly born youkai so that they could become the second largest species after humans.

Well, all things considered, since youkai are a second species, Senju thinks it's not bad. So, this task will be left to Yukari Yakumo to raise youkai with the right values. However, Yukari Yakumo says that this task would be more suitable for Kaguya, who is in charge of culture.

Kaguya, who had been secretly laughing to herself, immediately turned serious. She realized that this matter was indeed a matter for the Another Club, and that getting involved would be overstepping her bounds.

Then Senju watched as those bastards passed the buck back and forth, until finally, the blame fell on Senju. Senju couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Fine, if that's how it is, then all the monsters born in the future will have a natural understanding of what they should and shouldn't do. Those who violate the rules will be exiled to an alien planet for modification, and those who go too far will have their souls scattered."

“I agree,” Reimu lazily raised her hand, Kaguya shrugged indifferently, and Yukari Yakumo nodded indifferently as well. “That’s good. However, Lady Senju, I hope to guide some talented youkai into Gensokyo.”

“Sure, whatever you like,” Senju nodded, not caring about the matter. After all, Gensokyo was already quite large and could accommodate more alien life forms.

Then everyone adjourned, but they didn't leave. After hearing that this was a food planet, they went out to eat, and even William went to buy things to take home.

Watching them leave, Senju lay back in her chair, pondering what to have for dinner and what changes the food battle that evening would bring. Something felt off about this world; it was as if she had overlooked something.

As Senju was thinking this, Ram brought over tea. "Master, is the meeting over? Take a rest."

"Hmm," Senju nodded slightly and leisurely sipped his tea. Then Ram started taking out documents again, and Senju couldn't help but complain, "Isn't there a better way? A computer is good too."

“No, I feel more at ease with paper documents,” Ram said. Senju didn’t pay much attention to it; after all, there was no difference between paper and electronic documents to Senju.

After leisurely sipping tea for a while, Senju Yuzai and Ram were reviewing documents together. However, Senju Yuzai felt that something was not right about this, while Ram was quite natural, saying, "This is the duty of the master as the owner of the world."

"I see," Senju nodded, and the afternoon came to an end. Night fell, and the students began to gather at a huge building on the mountaintop, which was the Moon Sky Pavilion.

Senju also led Ram and Rem inside.

The venue was quite large, with seats for thousands of students from the entire school and hundreds of people from outside the school. The three members of the Senju group were also sitting in the audience, but in the last row. There was no one there; everyone was crowding forward.

However, this distance was child's play for the three of them, and they could see everything clearly. After everyone finished entering and took their seats, Senju noticed that with the thoughts of the many students, the laws here also began to surge. Well, mainly the laws of cooking, especially in the area that everyone was watching, where the laws were extremely active. Competing on the field would bring many benefits.

Chapter 1577 The Lively Arena

Originally, the head coach should have spoken next, but since the head coach was also a contestant, he didn't speak. Instead, the young female host, Kawashima Rei, whom Senju was very familiar with, introduced the two contestants and several judges.

However, there was a slight problem with the girl's introduction. When introducing Seiichiro Saiba, she used derogatory terms such as "overestimating himself," "a down-on-his-luck chef," and "certain to fail" from over ten years ago.

Introducing Saiba Asahi with a bunch of positive words like "great," "creating a new world of cooking," and "ahead of his time," while also getting the students chanting slogans together, isn't that home-field bullying? Senju was speechless, but Saiba Seiichiro was very calm, even watching with a smile. This kind of small scene was too ordinary for him.

Then the young female host introduced several judges, who were also very impressive: two "God Tongues," Erina Nakiri and Managi Nakiri, and the "Food Demon King," Senzaemon Nakiri. The Nakiri family was the judge this time, and the surrounding students cheered as the host introduced them.

As the host heated up the atmosphere of the competition, the roof of the originally enclosed space between the moon and the sky was opened up a bit, forming a long gap. With the introduction, the students learned why this place was called the space between the moon and the sky.

The food battle here begins when the moon appears in the gap and ends when the moon leaves the gap. As the moon moves across the sky, the chefs compete under the moonlight, hence the name "Moonlight Space".

Of course, Senju was thinking that if he pulled some dark clouds over now, would the competition be canceled? Or maybe a lunar eclipse or something. However, Senju didn't do that in the end. After all, it seemed that the power of heaven (the moon), earth (between the moon and the sky), and people (students and chefs) had been used to form a magic circle that activated the origin of this world.

As the moon appeared, the competition finally began. The ingredients on the stage were all from this world. The two of them, without prior agreement, did not use the ingredients from the other world. They simply looked at and touched them, and then they obtained the best ingredients they needed.

After selecting the ingredients, Saiba Asahi took out three knives, each radiating an intense culinary aura. After a routine boasting session, Saiba Seiichiro also took out a seemingly ordinary kitchen knife from the box, and then they began to cook.

The people around were very excited, but Senju, who was sitting in the last row, didn't pay much attention. He was studying the overall structure of the magic circle-like building. Rem next to him was watching seriously, while Ram looked uninterested.

After studying it for a while, Senju discovered that the suppressed world consciousness had indeed become active. There was something wrong with the Moon Palace. Chefs who held food battles there would receive its blessing. There was definitely something wrong with it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have chosen 'reaching the top of the Moon Palace' as a condition. It was planning to cheat from the beginning.

After studying it for a while, Thousand Hands stopped caring and casually suppressed the emerging world consciousness. The two on the stage trembled at the same time. With the sudden disappearance of the various halos around them, they found that their wonderful ideas had been interrupted. After being stunned for a moment, they continued to cook.

Meanwhile, Senju, who was sitting at the very back, started playing on his phone. In the pitch black all around, he was the only one who was shining, but no one paid any attention to him. The classmate closest to him was ten rows away. Senju wondered what might happen.

“Master, if you’re bored, we can leave,” Ram whispered in Senju’s ear. Her voice was so soft that even Rem didn’t notice. Senju shook her head slightly and had a private conversation with her in her mind. “Although it’s boring, it’s worth watching. I want to see what it will be like in the end. Does the current winner count as having reached the pinnacle of the Moon Realm?”

"I see," Ram responded in her mind, then fell silent. To be honest, she didn't know why so many people were so crazy about the cooking competition between the two chefs. Seeing her owner playing on his phone, Ram also took out her tablet and started chatting.

While playing on her phone, Thousand Hands glanced at it and realized that it was also a chat group. Ram was the group owner of several groups, such as 'Best Sister Group', 'Maid Group', 'Twins Group', 'Sister is the Best Group', and so on. Thousand Hands was speechless.

However, Ram is now in the maid group, and Senju is looking at her phone intently, but the screen on her phone has changed to the group chat interface.

Looking at the members inside, Senju found that she actually recognized a few, such as Little Devil, Izayoi Sakuya, Wilhelmina, Tohru, and quite a few others, but they all seemed to be maids.

A group of people were showing off their personalities inside.

Senju found a bunch of photos of strangers inside, but Ram didn't upload many. Those few were photos of her next to Senju while she was sleeping. Looking at these, Senju felt a headache coming on. Those must have been photos taken when Senju's clones traveled to other worlds and showed them their bodies.

There were a few photos of Senju alone, but judging from the angle, Senju knew that Ram had taken them with her eyes. She could take a picture and upload it in the blink of an eye, since the essence of this chat group was connected to consciousness.

Then Senju looked at the photos uploaded by the other maids. Well, they were mostly people she didn't recognize, except for Remi, MuQ, Shana, and Kobayashi. After flipping through a few photos, Senju left and looked at the chat content. She found that they were discussing one of the maid's many skills: cooking.

After watching for a while, Senju looked towards the arena. The two chefs were already cooking. From their perspective, only one-fifth of the total time had passed. Senju even wanted to help push the moon, but in the end, he did nothing. He was only there to witness the final result.

Perhaps in the eyes of other chefs, their skills are simply art, but in Senju's view, they are just so-so. They both rely on superpowers to cook, and once they lose their powers, their skill level will drop significantly. Their foundation is not as solid as Yukihira Soma's.

Feeling slightly bored, Senju leaned back in her chair to sleep—or rather, to rest with her eyes closed. It was quite dark around her, and Senju soon became sleepy.

Of course, the much-anticipated scene of her tilting her head and leaning against the person next to her didn't happen. Senju remained steadily leaning against the chair. However, at that moment, a deafening shout from the students in the room suddenly woke Senju up.

Chapter 1578 Awakening

Senju glanced at the stage. Could it be that someone on stage used an unimaginable cooking technique? It looked quite ordinary. Senju was slightly puzzled, but after listening carefully, she realized that it was Saiba Asahi who had used incompatible ingredients.

While most claims about food incompatibilities are rumors, there is a slight possibility. In everyday life, this is nothing to worry about too much. However, this is a food war, equivalent to the final of the world's strongest chef competition, and it's really disappointing that Asahi Saiba made such a basic mistake.

However, the two on stage didn't seem to have changed much. As top chefs, how could this be a mistake? It's just that the students around them were too low-level.

After watching for a while, Senju noticed that both of them looked very confident. He shook his head and continued looking at his phone, waiting to see how the world's will would react after the winner emerged.

"What an amazing fragrance!" Rem suddenly spoke up after a while. She closed her eyes as if she was smelling something. Senju was puzzled for a moment, then carefully smelled the area around Ai and sensed an extremely strong fragrance. It seemed to be emanating from the stage a hundred meters away, or more specifically, it was coming from Saiba Seiichiro's dishes.

"It's amazing that a mere dish can be made to this extent," Qian Shou exclaimed. It really is a world of food. Even though he was so far away, he could clearly smell the aroma. Qian Shou glanced at the students in front and saw that their faces were indeed flushed.

“Now it seems, he is indeed a good cook, but such a strong aroma is not what I like,” Ram said, frowning and shaking her hand, as the aroma around her dissipated.

Speechless, Senju glanced at Ram and was about to say something when he felt as if he had been punched. A stronger aroma surged over him, suppressing the original scent of Saiba Seiichiro's dish. "Could this be...? What a cliché."

As she said this, Senju looked up at the stage. Sure enough, it was Saiba Asahi who had finished cooking. His cooking completely overwhelmed Saiba Seiichiro. It seems that even the world's strongest chef, the legendary Shura, will become a relic of the past because his son is the protagonist.

Senju felt like he could already see the ending. Sure enough, although two of the referees were biased towards Saiba Seiichiro, the result was still 3-0. The famous Shura suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of his disciple. Yukihira Soma and Nakiri Azami were looking on in disbelief. To put it nicely, they looked like they had been struck by lightning.
