Chapter 57

Ever Soul Knife, the legendary kitchen utensils. It could effectively improve the freshness of food. The knife produced by the system was extremely effective. Shijun looked at the tender meat of the Australian Lobster in front of him with satisfaction.

He was unaware that his identity had been discovered by the Elite Ten. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care because of his character.

He didn't intend to hide his identity. It's just that there's no need to advertise it everywhere.

Glancing at Erina. The other party's blue lobster has been shelled, leaving only the head and tail.

Looks like she was going to make baked shrimp, he just didn't know the specific kind of dish she wanted to make.

But when Erina took out the other ingredients, everyone in the room instantly understood.

Matsutake, mushrooms, broccoli!

Baked Lobster with Cheese. A world-famous American western food.

"I didn't expect Miss Erina to choose French and Western food?"

"The meat of blue lobster is more suitable for American cuisine!"

"Yeah, mustard and cream are a must for the perfect blue lobster."

"..."

Everyone was a chef, and naturally knew the difference between the two cooking styles. French was more about half-cooked or raw food, obviously not suitable for blue lobster.

Because the astaxanthin in the blue lobster only undergoes a qualitative change after it was fully cooked, forming an extremely unique delicacy.

Shijun didn't care what Erina cooks, he's just a little curious. Continue with another Australian Lobster.

This time, everyone's eyes were fixed on the kitchen knife in Shijun's hand. They finally didn't need to replay, and they could see the flowing dragon pattern on the blade.

"What kind of kitchen knife is that? Such an exaggeration!"

"Is there any expert to explain? Why does the dragon pattern on the knife move?"

"This Chinese international student was really hidden, there are such amazing kitchen utensils!"

"So what? The final competition of topic is cooking!"

"That's right, Erina-sama will never lose..."

"..."

...

On the cooking table. Erina looked blankly at the kitchen knife in Shijun's hand. She had also vaguely guessed the identity of the other party. In fact, she had this conjecture a long time ago.

It just felt unrealistic at first. She did not expect, the descendant of the Xie family, one of the three imperial families, actually came to Tōtsuki to go to school.

Erina couldn't understand Shijun's brain circuits.

'Could it be for Rindou-senpai? ' Erina, who loves shojou manga, had such an idea subconsciously.

'It seems like Shijun was a family member who came to school to pursue the girl he loves'

This was often the case in comics she had seen. She couldn't help but glance up at Shijun. Unexpectedly, he was still a pure-hearted person. But that didn't change her dislike for him. Erina shook her head secretly and continued to concentrate on making her own dishes.

Although Baked Matsutake Lobster with Cheese was a famous dish. But Erina's approach was obviously different from traditional cuisine. After pulling out the tendon of the shrimp, she actually picked up the carving knife. Clearly wanted to show off his knife skills on the Lobster.

Erina's knife work was very delicate. The soft little hand held the carving knife and waved it on the Lobster. Like dancing a moving dance.

Everyone stared at the big screen, for fear of missing a single detail.

"Oh my God, Erina-sama who carves the ingredients is so beautiful!"

"I seem to see Kaguya-hime descending into the mortal world, composing the music of delicious food with her light hands."

"I haven't seen such a serious and dedicated lady for a long time!"

"..."

It is different from the senses of the people. Shijun who was the closest from Erina, saw meticulous seriousness, movement, expression, speed.

Every step was as rigid as a textbook, with no ego rhythm at all. The movements seemed graceful and light, but they were actually not happy.

Shijun felt that Erina did not enjoy the fun of cooking at all. Instead, she deliberately forced herself to pursue the ultimate in cooking. Every step of the way was forcing yourself to be your best. As if something was driving her to do so.

Shaking his head, Shijun was too lazy to think so much. He picked up an Australian Lobster with one hand and held it in the air.

"Hey, what does Shijun want to do?"

"Does he want to show off his knife skills like Miss Erina?"

"This is a man who can perfectly cut tofu in the air. I really look forward to his carving"

"..."

Although many people dislike Shijun, they have to admire this guy's knife skills. The scene of cutting tofu at the beginning was still reverberating in many people's minds. What they didn't expect was that the other party was still holding a kitchen knife.

'No way? Is he going to carve with a kitchen knife? What a joke! ' Such a thought arises in everyone's mind.

However, they haven't had time to discuss.

The kitchen knife in Shijun's hand was already dancing. Fast enough to blur!

If Erina's knife work was like a moving dance. Then Shijun had only one word "fast".

The speed was fast to the extreme! The knife light was so fast that everyone's eyes couldn't keep up. Only the slow motion playback on the big screen they finally could clearly see the other party's movements.

However, shockingly, swinging a kitchen knife so fast. The Lobster in front of Shijun was changing shape rapidly.

From the initial prototype, it quickly turned into a finished product. It was not difficult to see from the high-definition screen. This Australian shrimp had already turned into the appearance of a shrimp head and a dragon body.

That body is lifelike, even the slightly raised scales were lifelike.

"How is this possible?"

"It's just cheating, right? How can you finish the engraving so quickly?"

"And it's still a kitchen knife, can this thing also carved?"

"f**k, this dragon scale is exactly the same as the real thing, how did he do it?"

"I feel like I've learned all my cooking in vain"

"Ditto"

"..."

After everyone on the scene was shocked, they fell silent. They were slapped by the reality. For a while, the audience was silent.
