The King of Elden's Multiverse Life
Page 138
Before Nakiri Managi returned, Nakiri Senzaemon gave a brief introduction to the WGO that Nakiri Managi was in charge of to those who were unaware of it, so no one was too surprised by Anne's identity.
Erina eagerly grabbed Luo Yu's arm and said, "Yu-kun, can you help me check on Mom's God Tongue?"
Although she looked alright, Erina knew from the fact that her mother was on an IV drip in the car that her condition was not optimistic.
Luo Yu nodded, then led Lani to Nakiri Managi.
“Although no specific examination has been conducted yet, I can see that you are facing serious mental health issues; the nutritional intake problem is a minor one.”
Nakiri Managi raised an eyebrow and looked at Luo Yu, saying, "You've already noticed? It's definitely more of a mental issue for me. Well then, I'll have to trouble you."
Without needing to stick out their tongues or anything, Luo Yu and Lani joined forces to release their magic, which easily seeped into Nakiri Managi's skin to begin a detailed examination.
Feeling the unique sensations on her tongue and face, Managi Nakiri exclaimed with curiosity, "Is this magic? I've seen some magicians overseas, but none of them could do this!"
As the head of WGO, the World Gourmet Association, Nakiri Managi naturally knows many secrets and has met quite a few Devil Fruit users.
But I've never seen anyone like Luo Yu and Lani before.
It seems there's really hope for my tongue?
Chapter 296 Successfully Suppressing the Tongue of God (1/2)
After a five-minute check, Luo Yu and Lani recovered 104278 units of magic power.
After thinking for a moment, Lani looked at Luo Yu and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that the method we devised earlier needs to be adjusted."
Luo Yu nodded and said, "Indeed, the situation is very troublesome. Erina, prepare a quiet room for us. Lani and I need to prepare the medicine."
"I understand, come with me!"
Erina led Luo Yu and Lani upstairs and handed over her study to them.
After closing the door, Luo Yu took out a large pile of various materials from his inventory and began working with Lani.
Erina didn't disturb them and quickly went downstairs back to her mother's side.
"Mother, don't worry, Yu Jun and the others will definitely have a way!"
Nakiri Managi nodded, then looked at Akanekubo Momo, who was sitting next to Kobayashi Rindou and still maintained a shocked expression.
"It seems some people here don't know about magic."
Erina looked at Momo Akanekubo, only then realizing what was happening.
Yes, Kobayashi Rindou knows, but Akanekubo Momo doesn't.
Rindou Kobayashi also looked at Erina.
"Can I tell you?"
Erina nodded: "Of course, I didn't intend to hide it from Momo-senpai."
Then, Kobayashi Rindou gave Akanekubo Momo a brief explanation, which broadened her worldview.
"Monsters, evil spirits, cursed spirits, all sorts of superpowers—is this really what the world is like?"
Momoko Akane swallowed hard, her face full of disbelief, but the actions of Luo Yu and Lani just now proved that all of this was true.
Erina explained, "It's normal to be surprised, but even without these things, our world is special. Many of those late-night chefs have special abilities, which can be considered a kind of superpower. My God Tongue can be included in that category."
"Oh! Is that so?"
Momoko Akane knew a little about the Midnight Chef, but she really didn't know anything about his special abilities.
After all, unlike Kobayashi Rindou, who was always out and about, she mostly stayed at school, researching various desserts.
Nakiri Managi gently waved her fan and looked at the girls present, saying, "There are indeed people with special abilities among the Midnight Chefs, but they are not many, and they are not special abilities; they are all suitable for cooking. There are quite a few cases of ordinary chefs defeating Midnight Chefs. Moreover, given the level of protection here, those Midnight Chefs with underhanded methods cannot get in."
Senzaemon Nakiri nodded in agreement: "That's right. All those who smuggled in this time have been expelled, and quite a few people were arrested as well."
After finishing discussing the matter of the ability users, Nakiri Managi turned to her daughter: "Erina, tell me in detail how your God Tongue solves the defect."
Erina nodded and told her mother about her experiences during this time.
After hearing this, Nakiri Managi couldn't hide her surprise and looked at her daughter, saying, "So, besides God Tongue, you have other abilities now?"
Erina smiled and raised her right hand, and a flame appeared directly in her palm.
Momoko Akane's eyes widened, while Senzaemon Nakiri, seeing his granddaughter display her special abilities outside the kitchen for the first time, came over with great interest.
"Yes, the temperature of the flame is very high. If you use it in cooking, you will definitely need to get used to it."
Erina put away the flames and said with a smile, "This is indeed difficult to use, but the effect is really good. Even though I'm not very skilled at it yet, it can still add a very strong flavor to dishes, especially meat. It will be even better when grilling meat, and it will take less time. In addition, not only me, Alice, Hisako, Megumi and Ikumi have also learned it."
"Have many people learned it?"
Nakiri Managi looked at Alice and the others thoughtfully, "They really don't hold back at all."
Alice said happily, "That's right, Yu-kun is really nice! Of course, there are conditions, like joining their faction or something. Of course, we don't need to do anything. In terms of strength, we are no match for Yu-kun and Lani-nee-nee, and even Yukino is much stronger than us."
Nakiri Managi looked at Yukino, who was sitting quietly on the opposite sofa, and said with a smile, "Yukinoshita family, on the plane back to Japan, I learned about you girls. Now I also know about Luo Yu-kun's abilities. Since it's Erina's own choice, I won't interfere too much. Besides, I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother over the years, so I have no right to ask questions. As long as Erina is happy, that's all that matters. But Alice, it seems you haven't told your parents about your own affairs yet?"
Seeing Nakiri Managi looking at her, Alice stuck out her tongue and said awkwardly, "Hehe, if I told them, Dad is too busy to say anything, but Mom will definitely fly over immediately, and that would be troublesome. It's not that I'm afraid Mom won't agree, but if they find out about the abilities I've gained, they'll definitely drag me into all sorts of experiments, and then I won't have a chance to play with Yu-kun."
Thinking of her older brother and sister-in-law, Nakiri Managi smiled and squinted her eyes.
"I won't say much, but they are all from the Nakiri family after all. I believe that it won't be long before even my father finds out."
Upon hearing this, Alice resigned herself to her fate and leaned back on the sofa.
"Then I won't care anymore, I'll just take it one day at a time."
Senzaemon Nakiri stroked his beard and looked at Alice, saying, "As for Souei and his wife, they're very busy at the research institute and won't be back for the time being. But after summer vacation, it's hard to say. They value the autumn selection very much, and at least one of them will definitely come back then. Alice, you should prepare yourself mentally."
"It doesn't matter, at worst I'll just hide in Chiba and I definitely won't let them take me back to Northern Europe!"
After clenching her little fist to declare her determination, Alice stood up and said, "I'm going to prepare dinner!"
"I'll go as well."
Erina also stood up and led Hisako and the other two towards the kitchen.
Soon, only Nakiri Managi, her assistant Anne, Nakiri Senzaemon, Yukino, and Letina remained in the living room.
Nakiri Managi was very approachable and asked Yukino about Luo Yu.
After careful consideration, Yukino selectively told Nakiri Managi what she could say.
An hour later, Luo Yu and Lani finally came downstairs.
In Luo Yu's hand, there was a transparent medicine bottle containing half a bottle of golden liquid.
Chapter 297 The Grand Banquet (2/2)
After handing the prepared potion to Nakiri Managi, Luo Yu said, "Try drinking it. This is something I developed based on my research on Erina's tongue. I've made some adjustments to suit your condition. While it can't cure the problem completely, it should suppress the symptoms and help repair your tongue."
"Really? Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
After opening the bottle, Nakiri Managi tilted her head back and drank it down without hesitation.
Anben, who was standing to the side, thought of stopping her and suggesting that the ingredients be tested first, but in the end he didn't say anything and watched as Nakiri Managi drank it.
As soon as the medicine entered her mouth, Nakiri Managi discovered that she didn't dislike the taste at all. In the past, she would have spat out any soup or drink immediately.
possible!
In just a few gulps, half a bottle of medicine was completely drunk by Nakiri Managi under An's shocked gaze.
Wiping her mouth with a tissue, Nakiri Managi commented, "It's a very unique flavor, and even with my God Tongue, I can't taste what ingredients were used in it."
Luo Yu reassured Erina, who had run out of the kitchen looking nervous, and said with a smile, "Since it's not an ingredient and is an unobtainable material, and it has a significant suppressive effect on God Tongue, it's normal that you can't taste it. The potion takes effect immediately. Since dinner isn't ready yet, let's try it with some snacks first, shall we?"
As he spoke, Luo Yu also turned his gaze to Akane Kubo Momo.
The thought of having to serve her homemade sweets to a specific executive of WGO made Momo Akane Kubo nervous, but she still brought out her finished product.
Picking up a cupcake, Nakiri Managi smelled it, then opened her mouth and took a bite.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Nakiri Managi savored the pastries and nodded, saying, "Not bad. Among the cupcakes I've tried, this one is probably in the top two hundred. But the shortcomings are also obvious. The sweetness, baking time and temperature, the use of fruit, and the proportions all have considerable room for improvement."
She talked at length, but Momo Akane showed no aversion. Instead, she quickly picked up a pen and paper and wrote it all down without missing a single word.
As for being in the top 200, for Nakiri Managi, who has tasted almost all the world's delicacies, this is a very high compliment.
After watching Nakiri Managi finish a cake, Luo Yu nodded and said, "Not bad, it seems the effect is immediate. Next, I'll have Erina teach you the methods of meditation and magic concentration, and help you recover your health. At least your God Tongue won't continue to worsen. During this time, I'll also give you medicine regularly, and I'll adjust the formula later. With the help of the medicine, your tongue should be able to be repaired to a very good state in two months."
Nakiri Managi was also extremely excited to find that she no longer had the mental shock of disgust and rejection that comes with eating something.
Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Nakiri Managi let out a heavy sigh and looked at Luo Yu gratefully, saying, "Luo Yu-kun, thank you so much for your help. I haven't felt this way in a long time, the feeling of tasting normal food."
Luo Yu smiled and looked at Nakiri Managi, saying, "You are Erina's mother, so naturally you're one of us. I will definitely help you."
Nakiri Managi patted her daughter's head: "Even so, I am very grateful to you. If there is anything you need me to do in the future, you can just tell me, or have Erina tell me. As a specific executive officer of WGO, there is basically nothing in this world that I cannot do or obtain!"
While Nakiri Managi may not be as strong as Luo Yu, she is incredibly confident in her network of connections, resources, and connections.
Luo Yu nodded: "I understand. I won't hesitate to ask if you need anything."
With her tongue functioning normally for the time being, Erina happily spent some time with her mother before heading back to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
At six o'clock in the evening, a large table of sumptuous dishes was prepared and placed on the table.
Dojima Gin also rushed over after finishing all the work he was doing with Midnight Chef.
After chatting with Nakiri Managi for a while, which hadn't been a long time, I sat down and had dinner with everyone.
As for Nakamura Azami's matter, neither he nor Nakiri Senzaemon brought it up, seeing that Nakiri Managi didn't mention it.
One dinner gave Nakiri Managi a clear understanding of her daughter Erina's current culinary skills.
Although she is currently ranked tenth among the Elite Ten, Nakiri Managi believes that if she wanted to, she could easily secure at least a top-five spot, if not a first place.
Even Kobayashi Rindou, the current second-place finisher, showed a shocked expression after tasting Erina's heartfelt and meticulously prepared dish.
"Compared to the lunch, has it improved in just half a day?"
After taking a piece of meat and tasting it repeatedly, Kobayashi Rindou looked at Erina, a rare hint of nervousness appearing in his eyes.
It seems that I need to work harder in the remaining six months at school to improve my skills.
Otherwise, you'll be easily surpassed by your junior!
Momoko Akane, on the other hand, was much more direct.
After tasting Erina's osmanthus cake, Momo Akanekubo looked at her and said, "Erina, considering how many sweets I made for you, if you want to have a food battle later, don't pick on me. Let me graduate peacefully. Putting aside other dishes, just looking at the sweets, I'm not confident I can beat you."
Erina smiled and said, "It's not necessary to say that. Although I know quite a few desserts, I'm still not very good at them. It's just that I've been studying Chinese pastries more recently because of Yu-kun."
Tilting her head, Momoko Akane said, "I was clearly talking about the food battle, how come I'm being fed dog food again? Oh well, I'm not talking about it anymore, let's just eat..."
As he spoke, he picked up another piece of dragon beard candy.
"Little Peach, don't just eat snacks, try the other dishes too."
"No, I want to try all these snacks first, then I'll eat something else!"
After childishly replying to Kobayashi Rindou, Akane Kubo Momo took a bite of the dragon beard candy and showed a satisfied expression.
Watching the interaction among the group, Nakiri Managi smiled, picked up a piece of braised pork made by Alice using molecular gastronomy techniques, and nodded, saying, "Alice, you've done a great job in your research on molecular gastronomy, and you've also done a good job in integrating it with traditional cuisine. You haven't neglected the basics either."
Not only Erina, but Alice is also quite strong. With them, Totsuki Academy can definitely reach new heights in the future.
Chapter 298 Gojo Satoru's Phone Call (1/2)
After the banquet, Senzaemon Nakiri and Gin Dojima went back.
Because Nakiri Managi and Erina, the mother and daughter, had a lot to talk about tonight, Luo Yu didn't linger and said goodbye and went home at seven o'clock in the evening.
After watching the Luo family's car leave, Nakiri Managi and Erina went back inside.
Sitting down, Nakiri Managi felt her body's condition and said, "Even though I just drank the medicine and ate dinner, I feel like my body is in the best condition it has been in the past few years."
Erina said happily, "With Yu-kun and Lani-nee working together, this effect is a given!"
Looking at her daughter's radiant smile, and then at Alice and Hisako who remained there, Nakiri Managi asked, "So, all three of you have decided to follow him from now on?"
The three of them nodded in unison.
Alice smiled and raised her hand, saying, "Auntie, you don't need to worry! Yu-jun is very good to us!"
Hisako also said, "That's right, Lady Managi, we definitely won't let ourselves be wronged!"
Nakiri Managi shook her head: "I didn't object, I just wanted to confirm it again. And don't think I can't see that you all gave him your first time, right?"
Upon hearing this, all three girls blushed.
Looking at the shy girls, Nakiri Managi gently waved her fan and chuckled, "I've been through this before, so I can naturally tell what's going on in your state. But Erina, be careful about safety, I don't want you to have a child so early, it will affect your studies and cooking training."
