"Oh, this is great. Guren Dragon meat flavoured with lemon dragon fruit, queen pine prawn salad and live see-through kraken. That's the winner of the previous year's John F. Restaurant. This year, more food and seasoning than the previous year."

The lord enters the lavish cuisine served with admiration, and the members of the gourmet society around him.

Incidentally, about the members of the gourmet party, I said, "Uh-uh-uh!! I only said what I heard.

Well, even so, I know it's definitely good to just look around like that.

Various restaurants have shown off their cuisine so far, but the dishes served at Johnfrey's are still slightly better than that.

In fact, the dishes served so far are scored, many of which are 5-6 points. Most of them had 7 or 8 points.

However, he scored 9.8 at Johnford Restaurant. It's a virtual winning number.

By the way, the owner of Johnfrey's restaurant laughs happily.

Next door, the gourmet hero stands quietly with his eyes meditated the same as before.

She's a big boy, but you haven't slept a bit?

Well, it's finally our turn.

"And finally, participate for the first time this year! Previously, it was an irresistible small restaurant, but the recent improvement in the quality of ingredients has made some foodies roar, and the smile of the shopkeeper and signage makes the fan club rise secretly! A typical restaurant for ordinary people, the Mina Restaurant restaurant!

Mina seemed nervous without thinking about introducing the announcer.

But I put my hand on her shoulder and put my thumb in a guzzle.

Encouraged by that, she smiles and brings the dishes she prepared before the lord and the judges.

"Me, the menu is Jack au Lantern soup. With Devil Carrot and Mandragola Flowers. Cocatrice Killer Plant Sauce. It's a baked Entoke."

All of our first-class ingredients. Mandragora's flower accessories were divided by the flowers on her head at Dora's pleasure.

The main unit of Mandragora tasted better, but the flowers seemed to be better eaten, and the flavor and taste were good.

It only takes a few weeks for it to grow once, so I can't eat it that often.

First, the lord and the judges eat soup and flowers.

I suppose that was more than I could have imagined. I accidentally ate them all with a voice of admiration.

Then, the smell continues to stick to the scented baked entrails.

"This is... wonderful. The fragrance from before eating was the same, but the flavor still remains in the mouth and stimulates appetite. To be honest, I've been eating quite a bit of food so far, but this fragrance stimulates my appetite and makes me eat unexpectedly."

Next door, members of the gourmet party said, "Uh-uh!!".

Apart from Johnfrey Restaurant, it is highly regarded. But I still had the impression that they were eating their food just before, so it would be a step worse than that.

Then the match is the last dish. The lords carried the meat of the cockroach to their mouths, sprinkled with yellow sauce. And then...

……

The forks of the judges, including the lord, fall.

Afterwards, when the scores from the cooking screening were announced, the whole venue, including ours, was breathtaking.

10 o'clock.

"Nh....!

The owner of Johnfrey's restaurant also opened her mouth to the score, and the gourmet brave girl who stood quietly next to her quietly opened her eyes and looked at the number.

Ah, he was awake.

"This is it! No way, it's getting bigger! The Mina Restaurant wins with a maximum of 10 points spinning up the Johnfrey Restaurant!!

The cheers burst out. Mina didn't even think about it and flew around with Lily.

"Please wait"

But at that moment, a quiet word stops the voice of the venue.

"May I ask why?

It was that gourmet brave girl standing in front of the lord, including the judges, asking why.

"I have captured monsters from all over the world that serve a variety of luxury ingredients. The Guren Dragon we caught this time was also crushed at the end of the most difficult quest. The see-through kraken is a fantastic squid that appears once in a few years in icy waters. Capturing it was enough to compete in one or two of my previous adventures.

Let me ask you something. Why did the luxury materials I collected lose?

Girls' questions will be the most extreme. The luxury materials that her adventures have polished.

I don't think you can honestly convince me that it was defeated by us.

"If you eat this dish, you'll know the answer to that."

That's what the lord offered you, is it Cocatrice's killer plant sauce?

Of the dishes we served, the ingredients that were obviously considered luxury were baked entrails. Instead, I was offered a Killer Plant sauce of Cocatrice, which is supposed to be a common ingredient everywhere, so naturally a gourmet hero with a question mark.

But the moment I put it in my mouth, her expression, which had no expression until then, changed.

"?! This is...!

Got it?

With that bite, you understand everything, and the gourmet brave expresses his unbelievable expression.

Then he walked quickly to me without putting in his hair and asked me.

"You're the one who provided this ingredient, right? How the hell did you find this? Tell me."

My face is pretty close. Well, in anticipation of this, I brought the monster who will be the main guest of the cooking this time.

"I see. Now, let me tell you. This is the secret monster of the dish."

That's what I brought from behind is a killer plant that I put in a pot. I'm alive, by the way.

If you look at it, there will be a lot of noise all over the venue.

"I don't know, what a thing! Here's the killer plant that the Mina Cafeteria's ingredient supplier brought out! Or I'll attack people indiscriminately! What are you thinking!

A gourmet brave man who immediately reached out to his hip sword after seeing what I brought.

Eventually, however, I noticed a strange point and began to relax.

"... what do you mean? Why aren't they attacking us?

Yes, the killer plants that we brought in have zero signs of attacking people. Of course, the teeth are already ripe and growing from the mouth. However, the movement is slow, and it seems like there is no temper to attack people.

And finally the voices of doubt rose one after the other, even if people in the venue noticed it.

"It's simple. Probably because this is what the killer plant looks like."

Instead of answering my question in the hall, even the gourmet brave man in front of me began to puzzle his face.

"... please explain"

"First of all, he wasn't raised on ordinary flats, forests, or places with dirt. This is a killer plant grown in the wilderness from here to the north, where no grass, no water, goes through."

"?! Stupid, you can't grow a killer plant in such a place!

Well, it's normal to think so. Not just killer plants, but normal plants and monsters don't grow there.

"But the killer plant grows. Rather, I grew up in a killer plant."

"What do you mean?

"I've seen it in a cartoon. Fasting farming."

It was some famous delicious cartoon that used the minimum amount of water and fertilizer necessary to drive the plants into a state of starvation and maximize their natural power.

I've had one question about this killer plant before. When it grows up, it's about aggressively attacking people.

No, it wasn't a predatory or nutritional attack, not just on people, but on neighboring Jack Au Lantern.

So I reversed my idea. Perhaps the killer plant has grown too much and has become too energetic and fierce on the contrary?

The fruit that the killer plant produces is tomatoes. And I hear tomatoes get fat when they give too much fertilizer.

I mean, the environment in which the killer plants were growing was actually overweight for them.

So I dared to raise them in a spartan farming method in the wasteland, with minimal water requirements.

As a result, the fruit was not red but yellow. And even after they matured, they didn't attack people, but rather focused on making their own fruits come true.

"And this yellow fruit is ready. This is the original fruit of the killer plant. To that end, sweetness, all go far above the fruit of the existing killer plant. The taste of those fine ingredients was hidden in those common monsters."

That's how I throw the yellow fruit from the killer plant I grew at the gourmet hero.

With a bite of it, the gourmet hero leans down quietly as if convinced.

"So now we both have no objection? This match is a victory for the Mina Restaurant and the amazing Monster Grower Kyo who contributed to it!

The proclamation was now crowned with cheers and congratulations from the audience.
