"Dad, what are you talking about?" Yukihira Soma looked completely bewildered, while Saiba Seiichiro chuckled, though his smile was full of mischief. He patted his son's shoulder and said, "Soma, I'm sorry, but Dad probably won't be able to play house with you anymore. I'm going to a faraway place to pursue new culinary arts."

"Huh?" After his initial surprise, Soma Yukihira didn't quite understand what his father was saying, but then he expressed his dissatisfaction, "What do you mean by playing house? I'll win in no time!"

"Really? I don't remember such a thing, ahahaha," Seiichiro Saiba laughed smugly, shaking a small notebook in his hand. Soma Yukihira looked very dissatisfied, but he couldn't refute it!

After the father and son finished their banter, Senju waved his hand, dispelling the floating galactic phantoms beside him. "As for the other people's abilities, well, Yukihira-kun, don't expect anything, you don't have any."

"Sigh, how could that be?" Yukihira Soma, who was looking on with anticipation, complained slightly as he listened to Senju's words. Senju then looked at the other expectant classmates, lingering on Tadokoro Megumi for a moment before looking away. "You guys need to keep it a secret."

"Uh," the classmates were quite disappointed, but it was still better than seeing Soma Yukihira pinned down. However, Soma Yukihira, who was pinned down, didn't seem disappointed at all. Instead, he looked determined, "Even without superpowers, I won't lose to anyone!"

"Is that so? Just a mortal, yet he thinks he can catch up with us? That's really laughable," Saiba Asahi couldn't help but say. He had already lost, yet now he was saying he wouldn't lose. There's a limit to how thick-skinned he is! A mortal dreaming of surpassing a genius is simply a pipe dream!

"Well, having superpowers isn't necessarily a good thing, and not having them isn't necessarily a bad thing," Senju said, making everyone roll their eyes. Was she just being naive? Or was she just bored and had nothing better to do? That thing, superpowers, how could it be...not having them?

What about the good stuff?! Actually, Senju thinks so too.

"Don't you believe me? This has to do with the composition of the world," said Thousand Hands, who was holding a cup of fruit smoothie. "This world is made up of two parts: the spirit of cooking and the spirit of destruction. Superpowers are the result of the conflict between the two. However, because of the conflict, people with superpowers are less lucky."

"..." Everyone present looked at Senju with a 'what is this guy talking about?' expression, which made him lose interest. "Fine, if you don't believe me, then forget it. Just pretend I didn't say anything."

“Luck? I feel like I’m very lucky,” Saiba Asahi said with a smile. He felt that becoming Saiba Seiichiro’s disciple was his greatest fortune. Nakiri Azami nodded in agreement. “I think Erina is very lucky too.”

"Heh," Senju rolled his eyes. One was orphaned, the other had encountered a father who was like a ghost. To call that lucky? Senju could only chuckle.

The others, like Seiichiro Saiba, fell into a state of self-destruction when he was young, then found the person he loved, then his wife died, and he adopted a son who wanted to trample him underfoot. Is that what you call luck?

Then look at Azami Nakiri. He is gentle and refined, and seems very lucky. But in reality, his wife suffers from anorexia, he has been driven out of his home, and his daughter hates him. If this is called lucky, then he really is lucky. There is another person similar to him, Senzaemon Nakiri.

Tadokoro Megumi was actually quite lucky. Because of her panic, she couldn't fully utilize her talents and almost got expelled. Is that what you call lucky?! Senju clearly saw her past. In the very end, if it weren't for Yukihira Soma's intervention, Tadokoro Megumi, a chef who was no less than the Elite Ten, would have perished halfway through!

Counting these chefs with superpowers, Thousand Hands noticed that their luck was generally quite bad. However, these people would never admit it. They felt that they were very lucky. No matter how they thought about it, they felt that they were fortunate to have met the right person at a certain time, which is something that many people would rather have than achieve.

Chapter 1583 A Stable School

Seeing everyone's unwillingness to admit it, Senju was too lazy to say anything more. Anyway, there was no point in saying anything. He waved his hand and stood up. "Well, good luck to you guys. I'm leaving now."

"Sigh~ I feel like I didn't explain it clearly enough," Yoshino Yuuki said with some regret. But Senju had already left. The few people who remained looked at each other and then began to discuss how to better combine these exotic ingredients.

After leaving this area, Senju wandered around the school. There were no posters at all! He randomly pulled a classmate aside and asked, but the classmate said he didn't know who Seiichiro Saiba was, and he hadn't heard of any food battles in the Moonlight Realm recently.

"Tch, it's not what I expected," Senju shook her head and continued browsing. She did run into Kobayashi Rindou, who was eating snacks. Her appetite had increased since she transformed into a dragon! She complained to Senju that there was no option to exchange badges for otherworldly cuisine; there was only a problem with not having enough ingredients. She didn't mention anything about the Commander-in-Chief.

After casually adding various culinary creations to the badge system, Senju bid farewell to the girl who had begun to transform into a slightly dragon-like being. Then Wilhelm and Theresa came to report, but the information they gathered seemed quite ordinary, consisting only of photos and names of the dark chefs, as well as information about the strange energy fluctuations they possessed. Further information would require continued monitoring.

"Continue the surveillance, and be careful to protect her," Senju said, though slightly dissatisfied. He didn't say much, but instead gave her Tadokoro Megumi's information. The two nodded and then disappeared.

"Troublesome, hallucinations are still affecting my memory a bit," Senju rubbed his forehead slightly, but then relaxed. "Oh well, let's just treat it as another timeline."

Thinking this, Senju walked in one direction and saw the female ghost classmate who smelled sweet but was deathly pale. She had a lot of salted fish and other things tied to her body, but unfortunately, the smell of those things was completely purified by the laws that Senju had bestowed upon her. "Indeed, that's how it should be. How could it be so easy to get rid of them?!"

But seeing the other person looking like her soul was about to burst out, Senju felt sorry for her. In addition, the people around her were whispering, and Senju realized that this classmate who was known for her 'stink' was now about to be expelled.

Because of the purification ability that Senju bestowed upon her, the flavors of the originally prepared dishes were completely messed up, and the dishes she made were rated several 'E's in a row. The students were overjoyed. This witch has finally met her end! She has finally created divine punishment!

Seeing this, Senju retreated far away and immediately dispelled the purification ability on her. The classmates who had been laughing at her suddenly covered their noses and slowly collapsed. "What happened? Shouldn't it smell nice? Why does it smell bad again?!"

"Hoo~" Nao Satsuka paused for a moment, then took a deep breath, followed by a sigh. "Phew, this tastes the best! Hehehe, Erina-sama, I'll definitely let you taste my cooking. Just imagine how those stinky dishes would make you look so awful, hehehe~"

"Uh..." Seeing the suddenly eccentric girl, Senju thought it best to slip away first. Erina was doomed. Meanwhile, the other students were pounding the ground in disbelief. Based on their long-held impression, Sagami...

When Nao's scent suddenly turned pleasant, they mistook it for a foul odor, their sense of smell was confused for a while. Just when they finally regained their senses, the pleasant scent turned into a foul odor again. Is this some kind of joke?!

He didn't care about them at all, or maybe nobody cared about these background figures anymore. Senju happily went to find Reinhard and got a free meal from him. He had been training with the Food Demon King and had traveled to many places, learning from many great chefs. Now he can cook all kinds of dishes.

So Senju followed Reinhard for a while. Her cooking skills were very good, but there were still some dishes that Senju didn't like. Of course, it wasn't that they weren't delicious, but Senju was very picky about the specific ingredients, the appearance and taste of the dishes. She could accept ordinary meat, but she had no interest in ingredients like pig's trotters or pig's tail.

Seeing Qian Shou's disdainful look, the chef seemed to feel even more sorry for him. "Young man, if you don't eat braised food, you're missing out on a great pleasure in life. Come on, try this tongue. It's braised quite well."

"Um..." Senju politely declined. He understood the existence of this and knew it was delicious, but he just didn't want to eat it! His favorite food was pure lean meat!

The chef who was rejected seemed a little sullen, and Senzaemon Nakiri also gave a wry smile. In his heart, he was convinced that Senju was not a person of the culinary world. It would be too ridiculous to call someone who did not even approve of braised food a gourmet. At most, he was just an ordinary diner.

Then Senju was kicked out by the chef. Standing outside the door, Senju shook his head helplessly, "Tch, it's just eating some shaved ice inside. The taste inside just messes up the taste of the shaved ice."

Thousand Hands, munching on shaved ice, wandered around. Everything here seemed familiar to him, but the various food advertisements around him reminded him that this was not the world he had come from.

After wandering around for a while, Senju shook her head and returned to Totsuki. The world's will here hadn't changed much. After circling around a bit, Senju realized she had nowhere to go. The place she used to rent was now empty. Ram and Rem had gone home to recuperate, while Wilhelm and his wife had gone to investigate.

After thinking about it, Senju decided to stay at the Polar Star Dormitory for a while. After all, the place was full of chefs, and Senju also believed that he had made a great contribution to the place.

"You said you're going to stay here temporarily?" Wenxu tapped the table, looking quite lazy. Senju nodded. "That's right, I'll stay for a few days. I think it's nice here. Everyone is interesting, and the food is delicious."

"Is that so? But if you want to live in the Polar Star Dormitory, you need to pass a test," Fumio said calmly on the surface, but secretly his mouth was watering. The meat last time was so delicious. "You just need to make a dish that satisfies me."

“Sure,” Senju said, walking towards the kitchen. A few seconds later, she returned carrying a bowl of fried rice. “Try it, it’s mixed fruit fried rice!”

Well, this is actually a creation of Seiichiro Saiba from the Senju Deduction World. Although the principle behind it is unscientific, Senju could still easily create it. After all, Senju can also easily create even more unscientific things! Not to mention a mere bowl of fried rice!

Chapter 1584 Checking into the Polaris Dormitory

"Wow, so fast! Let me try it!" Fumio was slightly surprised, then casually took out a spoon, took a bite, and then let out a soft moan. Senju, who was standing to the side, felt very embarrassed. It's just a meal, don't make it so strange!

"Although it's not as good as last time, it's still pretty good. I passed the test." After finishing her meal, Wenxu was a little unwilling and wanted to disagree, but she had nothing to say about the fried rice this time. She felt that the level was comparable to that of Saiba Seiichiro. She could only take out a key from her pocket. "Here, this is for you. It's room 209, but it needs to be tidied up."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it myself." With a flick of his wrist, the key flew into Senju's hand, and then Senju left. Fumio, on the other hand, stared blankly at Senju as he left. "I didn't expect that someone could actually reach Saibo's level. It's a pity he's not a student."

With the key in hand, Senju went up to the second floor and quickly found the room. After opening the door, Senju found that it was actually very clean, with a bed and various furniture. There was no need to clean it; he could move in right away.

With a slight clap of his hands, the space in the room rapidly expanded, and then a castle appeared there. However, Thousand Hands frowned, clapped his hands again, and the room returned to normal. "Hmm, something still feels off."

Senju felt quite out of place after staying here for a few minutes, whether it was a small hut or a huge castle. Shaking his head, Senju looked out the window. In the vegetable garden outside, his classmates were still discussing. It was a pity that protagonists like Yukihira Soma didn't have any deep-seated desires or bitter grudges. Otherwise, once Senju realized he was the protagonist, he would have already completed his mission.

Besides, there's very little that Senju can do to help with cooking. Giving him all sorts of superpowers would just be a waste of his potential. Cooking skills aren't as easy to improve as martial arts; personal understanding is the most important thing.

After watching for a while, Qian Shou snapped his fingers, and the room was hidden. If people from outside came looking for it, they would find that there was no room 209 here.

After changing the furniture in the room, Senju lay down and started playing on her phone.

A moment later, Senju sensed movement outside. "Strange, Granny Fumio said he was in room 209, but where is room 209?!"

"208 is Ibu's room, 210 is over here, but why is the room in the middle gone?!" This sounded like Marui Zenji's voice. He knocked on the wall between 208 and 210. "The only thing I can think of right now is that the door is hidden, but at this distance, there doesn't seem to be a room."

"Is there something you need?" Senju pushed open the door, and what the two saw was that the wall between the two doors seemed to have suddenly lengthened, and then a door appeared. "Um, Lord Senju, it's dinner time now, Granny Fumio asked us to come and call you."

"Hmm," Senju nodded, glancing at Marui Zenji and another blond classmate standing at the door, before heading out. "By the way, who made dinner tonight?"

“It’s Mr. Saiba and Mr. Nakamura,” Marui Zenji said. Then the three of them went downstairs to the small restaurant, where most of the students were. Various cut fruits were laid out on the table, looking very colorful and beautiful. After sitting down, Senju took a skewer and ate some.

"By the way, where's Yukihira Soma?" After eating a few pieces of fruit, Senju asked Tadokoro Megumi, who didn't seem nervous or flustered at all. Instead, she was slowly chewing her fruit. "Soma is helping out in the kitchen."

“I see,” just then, Yukihira Soma came over with a tray of dishes. “Oh, isn’t this Senju? You actually moved in? I thought Fumio-patriarch was joking.”

"Well, it just so happens that Ram and the others have gone home. I'm not feeling too comfortable staying in a hotel, so I thought I'd come over here to join in the fun," Senju said casually, glancing at the dishes on the table. They looked crystal clear, like works of art, but the portions were a bit small.

"Huh, did Ram and Rem go home?!" Tadokoro Megumi exclaimed in surprise, then added anxiously, "But my room..."

"Oh, it's alright, just consider it an expansion," Senju said, already eating. He knew Tadokoro Megumi was referring to the huge space in her room, but it really didn't matter. "This is Nakiri Azami's. Yukihira-kun, go and serve the dishes."

"Yes, yes, yes," Soma Yukihira casually waved the tray and went to serve the dishes. Yuuki Yoshino, however, was a little curious. "Megumi, what happened to your room?"

“Before, Ms. Ram and Ms. Rem helped me make the house bigger, now it’s very big,” Tadokoro Megumi gestured as she tried to explain, but the classmates around her didn’t seem to understand. Bigger? How much bigger can it get? Did they knock down the walls of the adjacent rooms?!

“It’s as big as a town,” Tadokoro Megumi’s next words stunned the others. Sakaki Ryoko touched Tadokoro Megumi’s forehead worriedly, “Megumi, are you sick?”

“Of course not, I’m telling the truth, it’s huge inside,” Tadokoro Megumi said anxiously. The others still didn’t quite believe her. Senju casually remarked, “The space inside Megumi’s house has been expanded by Ram and Rem. The current area inside is about 100 square kilometers, with a length and width of 10 kilometers and a height of about 5 kilometers.”

"100 square kilometers?!" Yoshino Yuuki was startled, then murmured, "What is the current area of ​​Japan?"

“More than 370,000 square kilometers,” Marui Zenji said, somewhat surprised. “That means the area of ​​Megumi’s house is equivalent to 3,700ths of Japan?! How did they manage to do that?!”

“It’s just magic. How about I expand all the rooms in the Polar Star Dormitory?” A brilliant idea suddenly popped into Senju’s mind. “The Polar Star Dormitory has more than thirty rooms, right? If each room is expanded to 10,000 square kilometers, hmm, that’s exactly the total area of ​​Japan. Isn’t that a good idea?”

"Uh," everyone was speechless. Just thinking about living in a house that covered 10,000 square kilometers made them feel really uneasy! But then Yoshino Yuuki became excited, "Senju Senju, renovate my room! There are many of my companions in there, and the large area will make it easy for me to do a lot of things."

"Is that a companion? She looks more like food," everyone thought to themselves, looking at Yoshino Yuuki, who kept all sorts of animals in her house, often caused animal rampages in the Polar Star Dormitory, and was also good at cooking wild game.

Chapter 1585 Dinner

Because everyone's complaints were so intense, Senju also received this resentment and saw the scene that had happened countless times in the past: various animals darting out of her room and running wildly in the Polar Star Dormitory. But what's with the animals?! How did this student manage to keep a giraffe here?! And, is that even edible?!

Even Senju, upon learning of this situation, wanted to complain. He had initially thought this place would only house rabbits or something, but it turned out to be large animals?! "Looks like we really need to expand your space. But, you're not going to keep elephants or whales in there, are you?"

“How could that be?” Yoshino Yuuki waved her hand with a grin, then looked on with a dreamy expression. “If there were that much land, we could build a huge forest and raise all sorts of animals, like deer, bison, bears, and the like. Hmm, just thinking about it makes me happy.”

"Um," Senju shook her head speechlessly. The girl really had a big heart. "In that case, I have a good idea. I'll build you an ancient forest and put tigers, lions, pythons, dinosaurs and the like in it. Wouldn't that be great?"

“Well, that’s good, but,” after hesitating for a moment, Yoshino Yuuki raised her hand, “that is, lions are creatures of the grasslands.”

"Is this what you're worried about? Shouldn't you be focusing on the dinosaurs?" Senju complained, before the girl realized, "Dinosaurs? You mean those Jurassic dinosaurs? Well, I haven't cooked them yet."

"No one has ever cooked it, right? Humans and dinosaurs lived in different eras. All we can see now are dinosaur fossils, which can't be used as food at all," Marui Zenji complained, then looked at Senju. "However, since you say so, Senju-sama, reviving dinosaurs is a simple matter. I wonder how to cook dinosaur meat?"

"Well, you'll have to explore that yourselves," Thousand Hands shrugged, looking at the students. "Don't just focus on these ordinary ingredients. There are all sorts of powerful animals and plants you can cook with later, like dragons, hydras, griffins, and the like. I once had World Tree Leaf Frost Dragon Steak at a lich's place, and it was super delicious. But your strength... tsk tsk."

"Uh, in that case, who knows who will eat whom?" Everyone was speechless. There were no dragons or dragon slayers here. Why were they talking about such high-level things? We're just students right now. Isshiki Satoshi's eyes lit up, though. "Senju-sama is talking about the situation in another world, right? Cooking those legendary creatures, that's really something to look forward to."

"What are you talking about?" Soma Yukihira asked curiously as he brought over the new dishes. Senju shook his head slightly. "We're just discussing the possibilities of cooking with dragons."

“Oh, that? I’ve seen it in the badges too, but it’s quite expensive,” Soma Yukihira said casually. “Although I’ve thought of many ways, without the actual ingredient, I still can’t make a specific dish.”

"Well, there will be more in the future," Senju said speechlessly. Is this what the protagonist is like? Planning ahead, or is he aiming high? Just then, Seiichiro Saiba and Azami Nakiri brought over the dishes. As the dishes were laid out and rice was served, Senju knew that dinner preparations were complete.

Then everyone started eating. But chefs' gatherings are different. Everyone was analyzing the deliciousness of the dishes and the techniques used. Qian Shou didn't say anything. If you asked him to comment, he could have given a lot of opinions, but he was too lazy to say anything.

However, their conversation eventually touched on Senju. "By the way, Lord Senju, please come and watch the Food War tomorrow."

“Yes, I’ll go,” Senju nodded. He also wanted to see how reality differed from the deduction. Yukihira Soma, on the other hand, was a little dissatisfied. “Dad, let me see this food battle too! Keeping it a secret is so annoying!”

“No, this food battle is supposed to be a secret, and only the Ten Masters of all time can enter the Moon Palace. It was only because of Lord Senju’s special status that he was allowed to enter. As for you…” Saiba Seiichiro shook his head. Senju was stunned for a moment. “Saiba, you mean this food battle is a secret? That’s not right. I feel like Saiba Asahi really wants to defeat you in front of everyone.”

“Well, I told him about Lord Senju’s reward,” Saiba Seiichiro smiled, and Nakiri Azami added, “And now, his name is Suzuki.”

"I see. Is it because you don't want to be exposed? Or because you lack confidence?" Senju nodded, then shook his head. "He doesn't think the winner will get a ticket to another world, does he? I promised you, not him."

"Uh," Saiba Seiichiro was a little speechless. He shook his head. He didn't care anymore. If he won, he would leave this world. If he lost, well, hehehe, he hadn't even mastered the local cuisine yet, and he wanted to go outside. It was just wishful thinking. He should just focus on studying the dishes properly.

"By the way, Senju, is that Saiba Asahi's ability really that overpowered? He can use the other person's cooking skills just by getting their cooking utensils, isn't that cheating?" Yukihira Soma then worried about another matter, "If he defeats Dad, won't his cooking skills become more than twice Dad's? That's really troubling me."

"Well, superpowers are inherently unreasonable, but I have faith in you. Your cooking skills will definitely surpass that guy's," Senju casually encouraged the protagonist, and Yukihira Soma immediately became smug. "Of course, I will completely defeat him, including my dad!"

Afterwards, Senju chatted casually with everyone for a while, then said he was full and went outside to take a look. However, he didn't stand on the second-floor balcony, but went up to the roof. There were still some dark clouds in the sky, but with a casual glance, he saw a sky full of stars.

Looking at this vast universe, Senju sometimes wondered if humanity was truly the protagonist of this world. Although he knew this world was largely a product of human fantasy and anime, he couldn't help but wonder: which is larger, dimensions or the entire universe? Or are there fantastical planets with alien civilizations in every universe? Are dimensions simply fantastical spaces surrounding the surface of planets? And is the most real world surrounded by countless fantastical spaces?

After thinking for a while, Senju gave a wry smile, realizing that he now...

Although he is very strong, going back is just a thought. Even if he controls the Milky Way, he is not confident that he can find the way back. In fact, he has never even been to other dimensions, let alone 'reality'.
