Food Wars, my food not only glows!

　After a long while, the old man with white eyebrows watched the three figures leave, let out a long sigh, and said with a touch of emotion.

　"Japan...

　No, the entire culinary world is about to be turned upside down!

　Beside him, the sous chef, who was not much younger than him, also spoke with a complicated expression.

　"That has nothing to do with us old guys anymore. It's the era of young people now, and our era has long passed."

　The chef, whose eyebrows were turning white, joked, then shook his head with a wry smile, buried his head in the kitchen, and continued to stand guard at his post.

　He'd pretty much seen the end of his life; he'd spent his life in the kitchen with a few old buddies, without achieving much. Fortunately, the Nakiri family paid him a high salary.

　Let's retire here. In a couple of years, my grandson will go to Totsuki Academy to train and have a bright future before retiring!

　The day passed quietly.

　Under Bai Yuan's guidance, Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri lived a carefree and happy life, catching shrimp in the river and hunting in the mountains.

　As darkness fell, the three of them set up an open-air barbecue by the stream behind the mountain, with a tent set up nearby, enjoying a simple picnic.

　The ingredients used for the picnic were obtained from the mountains during this trip, including not only meat but also a lot of river fish and mushrooms, a complete selection of delicacies from the mountains and the sea.

　"This little bit of flavor comes right up with a scratch!"

　As soon as a handful of spices were added, a rich aroma filled the air, which brought a look of enjoyment to Bai Yuan's face, and he couldn't help but praise it.

　"Teacher Bai Yuan, why do my skewers taste so different when I use the method you taught us? They're not nearly as delicious as yours at all!"

　While chewing and looking at the skewers in her hand, Erina Nakiri's brows furrowed with doubt before she approached Shirabuchi and asked him curiously.

　Why is there such a big difference in taste when the same preparation method is used?!

　"It's mainly a matter of details."

　Before Shirabuchi could even speak in response to Erina Nakiri's question, Alice Nakiri answered first.

　The skewers the other person grilled weren't bad either, reaching the level of a first-class chef, but they were still quite far from being top-notch, mainly because they didn't grasp the details.

　"I've done everything I can, and I followed Teacher Bai Yuan's instructions from beginning to end. Are there any details I need to control?"

　Erina Nakiri frowned, clearly not agreeing with Alice Nakiri's words.

　While speaking, he kept his eyes glued to Bai Yuan's hands, wondering if the other party had hidden a secret to make the skewers more delicious.

　No matter how she looked at it, Bai Yuan's movements seemed so ordinary, yet the skewers he grilled were so radiant that they reached the level of luminous cuisine.

　"Alice is right, the key to making delicious food lies in the control of details."

　Seeing that Erina Nakiri was still somewhat skeptical and kept examining his hands, Bai Yuan nodded and said, "The secret to improving your cooking level is the details!"

　"Look at the size of these pieces of meat. Doesn't the fat look bigger than the lean meat, but it's relatively thinner, about half the thickness of the lean meat?"

　As Bai Yuan spoke, he held up the skewers in his hand and showed them to the group.

　"Hmm, is there a problem with this?"

　Looking at the skewers in the boy's hand, Erina Nakiri asked in confusion.

　"Of course! Fatty meat is mostly oil, and it shrinks after grilling. If you cut it into pieces the same size as lean meat, you won't be able to see it later."

　But such a large piece of fatty meat would definitely be greasy if you took a bite, so I reduced its thickness to achieve a fatty yet not greasy effect.

　Bai Yuan continued to explain, grabbing a condiment from the side as he spoke, rubbing his fingers together and lightly sprinkling it on, letting the oil and flames bring out the aroma.

　"If we combine what we've learned today, we can replace all the lean and fatty meat on the skewers."

　After all, some varieties of pork fat are more fragrant, but the lean meat doesn't taste as good.

　Some breeds of pigs have more flavorful meat but less fat; we can combine them together.

　Besides, seasonings are also key to delicious barbecue; only by using them properly can you achieve the desired flavor.

　Looking at the rising and leaping flames in front of him, Bai Yuan talked on and on, his voice becoming more and more excited as he spoke. He even reached out and grabbed Nakiri Erina's soft hand, teaching her hand by hand.

　"Master Bai Yuan has gotten carried away again."

　Seeing this scene, Alice Nakiri muttered a complaint under her breath, then took two steps forward and sat down next to Erina Nakiri to listen.

　Master Baiyuan's teachings are very rare, depending entirely on his mood. If he's in a good mood, he'll teach you more, and if he's in a bad mood, he'll teach you less.

　In her memory, it was rare to find a presentation like today's, which was packed with valuable information from beginning to end; it only happened when the other person was in a very good mood.

　So the three of them stood in front of the small fire, watching the skewers sizzling and dripping with oil, their faces filled with excitement and joy.

　As time passed, the pile of kebabs in front of them disappeared at an alarming rate, replaced by the two women's swollen bellies.

　"Brother Bai Yuan, you're the one who caused this situation, you have to take responsibility!"

　Alice Nakiri's voice was charming and slightly coquettish as she spoke, taking Bai Yuan's hand and placing it on her stomach.

　"Don't use such a misleading way of saying it!"

　Upon hearing Alice Nakiri's words, even though Bai Yuan's Dao Heart was very stable, he couldn't help but blush. He then tapped her on the head in an annoyed manner.

　"Huh? I don't think there's anything wrong with what I said. Not only me, but Erina's belly has also gotten bigger with Shirabuchi-sensei! Huh?"

　With a pout, Alice Nakiri reached out to pinch Erina Nakiri's chubby belly, but Erina deftly dodged her.

　"Humph."

　Seeing the bewildered look on Alice's face, Erina Nakiri gave a smug snort, then went to Shirabuchi's side and made a face.

　Not to be outdone, Alice Nakiri jogged forward and engaged Erina Nakiri in a fierce battle centered around Shirabuchi.

　"Alright, it's getting late. Are you going back to rest, or come with me into the tent?"

　Seeing the two bickering, Bai Yuan sighed and then grabbed the back of their collars, forcibly making them stop.

　As they spoke, Bai Yuan opened the tent in front of him, revealing the carefully decorated scene inside. Although the tent was not large, it was more than enough to accommodate three people.

　"Get into the tent!"

　"Iris Nakiri said excitedly."

　"Go back and rest..."

　Before Erina Nakiri could finish speaking, she heard Alice's reply. She looked at Alice with a complicated expression and gently bit her lower lip.

　This guy is truly shameless!

　"Fine, I'll stay then."

　Thinking that something unspeakable would inevitably happen if the two of them, a man and a woman, were alone together, Erina Nakiri changed her mind.

　As soon as she finished speaking, her face turned red, and she didn't dare to look at Bai Yuan's face. She buried her head and crawled into the tent.

　"Take off my boots first!"

　Seeing the shy Erina Nakiri, Bai Yuan's brow twitched. He then took off his shoes, put them outside, and walked into the tent, coming to stand in front of the girl.

　"Sit down. Since you're unwilling to do it yourself, I'll help you take it off!"

　Seeing Erina Nakiri's blushing face and her shy, slightly evasive demeanor, Bai Yuan's lips curled up, and he sat down, patting the bedding in front of him as he spoke.

　"Help me...no need! I can do this myself!!"

　Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Nakiri Alice was stunned for a second, but quickly reacted and frantically shook her head in refusal.

　"This is not something you can choose. After all, it's your punishment for running into the tent with your shoes on and getting my bedding dirty."

　The girl's shame suited Bai Yuan's tastes perfectly; in fact, he deliberately chose to see it.

　Those who said these things to her.

　"Punishment? What kind of punishment is that..."

　Bai Yuan's words made Nakiri Erina mutter to herself, while she couldn't help but shrink back a little.

　However, because the tent was too small, she couldn't escape at all. In the end, he grabbed her ankle and she sat down.

　Fortunately, the ground in front of me was made of bedding, not mud or grass, which was not only cold but also prickly.

　"Actually, the punishment is just an excuse for Teacher Bai Yuan. This guy is an absolute pervert, and he has an insatiable craving for the delicate feet of young girls. You'd better be careful, or you might fall into his trap."

　"Huh!?"

　Seeing the nervous Nakiri Erina, Alice Nakiri grinned mischievously and whispered in her ear.

　After he finished, he even blew a breath of air on it.

　It was this warm breeze that made Erina Nakiri feel numb all over. She had originally been prepared to put up a little resistance, but now she just collapsed to the ground.

　She was as delicate as a little white flower.

　“Punishment is necessary, otherwise how will you learn from this lesson?”

　Bai Yuan naturally heard what Nakiri Alice said, but he did not deny it. He just smiled and said this to Nakiri Erina.

　Before Erina Nakiri could even agree, he reached out and grabbed the girl's ankle, then slowly took off her boots.

　"If you're going to take it off, then take it off. Don't dawdle!"

　Sensing Bai Yuan's slow movements, Erina Nakiri pressed down her skirt to avoid revealing too much skin.

　Overwhelmed with shame, she didn't know where to look and could only urge him on with a hint of impatience.

　"This is punishment! If it were to pass so easily, how could it be called punishment?"

　Bai Yuan smiled like an old fox, and as he spoke, he even reached out and tickled the soles of Nakiri Erina's feet.

　This action caused its toes to curl up, and it then struggled violently.

　"Hmm, it itches!"

　However, despite her fierce struggles, Shiro Abe's grip was strong enough that no matter how much Erina Nakiri struggled, he held her ankles tightly and she couldn't move an inch.

　"Bad man, bad teacher! Perverted sex fiend!"

　From childhood to adulthood, Erina Nakiri had never been treated like this before. Especially when she saw Shirai staring intently at her feet, her face turned red with embarrassment, and curses kept escaping her lips.

　The words Alice Nakiri had just said echoed in his mind, his heart raced faster and faster, and his eyes became unfocused.

　"I'm a good man, don't you dare slander my innocence."

　Thank you for your hospitality.

　He placed a pair of boots outside the tent, and gently squeezed Erina Nakiri's incredibly soft black-stockinged feet a few times. Bai Yuan then put his hands together and said something.

　"What do you mean by 'thank you for the treat'?!"

　Erina Nakiri shouted, her face flushed.

　"Didn't we just have barbecue? I'm just expressing my gratitude for the barbecue."

　Bai Yuan spoke in a serious tone, and as he spoke, he placed his hand on Nakiri Erina's foot, pulled her into his arms, and began to caress her gently.

　These black stockings are so beautiful, I never get tired of them!

　"Haha, I hope so."

　Erina Nakiri withdrew her foot, feeling both embarrassed and ashamed. She then spoke in as indifferent a tone as possible, though the blush on her cheeks clearly indicated that she was not entirely calm.

　"I changed my pantyhose today, why don't you try mine on, Brother Bai Yuan?"

　Seeing that Erina Nakiri had withdrawn her foot, Alice Nakiri took the initiative to extend her foot in front of Shirayuki. Her instep was arched straight, making her look incredibly charming.

　"The main function of stockings is to enhance the appearance of the legs, making them look smoother and more delicate. Pantyhose, on the other hand, are designed to extend from the waist to the feet and are usually highly elastic, which can enhance the leg lines and create a perfect figure."

　Compared to stockings, pantyhose are more suitable for winter wear because they are relatively warmer, and their thick texture feels pleasant to the touch.

　Bai Yuan played with Alice Nakiri's small feet, which were clad in pantyhose, while making comments. His extremely professional remarks earned him an eye roll from the girl.

　"He even claims he's not a pervert, yet he knows so much about things related to stockings!"

　Erina Nakiri kept complaining in her mind, but dared not say it out loud, for fear of being punished again. She didn't want her feet to be grabbed and pinched by him again.

　That extremely strange feeling, which should have been hateful but couldn't stop the excitement, especially the thought that the other person might see under her skirt at any moment, made the excitement reach its peak!

　"Alright, it's about time to go to sleep."

　He gently pinched Alice's little feet, then lifted the blanket and crawled inside. If he continued, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself.

　It's one thing if I can't control myself normally, but the real problem is that I have Erina by my side now.
