Chapter 203 Please Call Me a Massage Master (4K)

Xia’an people are in the demon town of the food world, and they have no idea that their personal business cards and information on the igo application are updated so quickly.

However, Xia An never had any doubt that his cooking skills had reached the pseudo-Lin level.

What he lacks now is only the accumulation of pseudo-Lin-level answer recipes.

But soon, his first pseudo-Lin-level answer recipe will be born.

After using all the crab legs and crab roe of the three ruby ​​crabs in the [Spiritual Storage] for cooking practice, in the second half of the night, Xia An looked at the information about the dish that had soared to 98% completion, feeling a little unwilling.

He felt that he only needed one or two more attempts to reach the 99% perfection line, but unfortunately the ingredients on hand were exhausted.

Alas, he had no choice but to cheer himself up, take a break and recuperate, so as to be in the best condition for tomorrow’s feast.

……

The next day, it was dawn.

“clang–“

The distant sound of bells rang out from the shrine on the mountain.

Soon after, a team of shrine maidens carrying various banquet tableware were busy going back and forth between the shrine and the platform on the mountainside.

The people of the Monster Land gathered early, all of them smiling and talking happily.

“I didn’t expect that the new Chosen One would hold a banquet today!”

“This Chosen One’s cooking skills must be amazing…”

“Of course! Of the three chosen ones in recent years, the first two took a week to prepare carefully before hosting the banquet. But the third one seems to have full confidence in his cooking skills and doesn’t even need to prepare!”

At the same time, the sound of the bell could also be seen as a call to action, and the three demon kings, seven great demons and many small demons quickly filled up another platform on the top of the mountain.

The thick black fog in the sky above seemed to be within reach. Except for the three powerful demon kings, the other monsters were a little restless.

If they were not attracted by the delicious food at the banquet, they might not have risked being further eroded by the black fog to attend the banquet.

“Bai, did you see this third Chosen One yesterday?”

The one who spoke was one of the demon kings who was sitting in the main seat on the platform at the top of the mountain.

This is a handsome man, dressed in classic Onmyoji costume, with a pair of huge black crow wings hanging naturally behind him, exuding a strong demonic aura.

He is clearly not human—

Its true form is Daitengu, one of the most well-known monsters in Neon Tales.

The bird named Bai took its seat and transformed into a human body. It turned out to be a beautiful girl wearing feather clothes, with snow-white hair and skin as crystal as jade.

The young demon king said calmly: “Yes, he does have the cellular power of Sequence 4 Pseudo-Lin.”

The handsome man transformed by the Great Tengu couldn’t help but smile: “Really? Then I’ll look forward to it. After all, the cooking skills of the last Chosen One named Higashino Tsuyoshi were just average. The banquet he hosted could only be rated as ‘passing’ at best by me.”

Suddenly, a charming voice sounded:

“What about Sun Ning, the Chosen One of the Greatest Gods? You seem to have been thinking about the feast for this genius chef all the time?”

The girl Bai, the handsome man, and the monsters present all looked at the third monster king who had spoken.

This is a fox girl, with eight white and furry fox tails vaguely appearing behind her.

According to the Shenzhou Zhiguai, this fox girl has profound Taoism skills and has cultivated eight tails. The only thing left is the legendary nine-tailed fox. By then, her magical power may be even stronger than that of the cat god Spot.

Compared to the young girl Bai, the fox girl’s human form appears mature and elegant.

She was wearing a dress with exquisite embroidery, which could not hide her full and exaggerated curves. Her facial features were gentle and charming, and between her eyebrows and eyes, in addition to the charm that came with her race, there was also a kind of indifferent and detached temperament that came from years of seclusion.

“Long, aren’t you also satisfied with Sun Ning’s banquet?” the handsome man said with a smile.

The fox girl named Long said expressionlessly, “I am satisfied, but not as excited as you are. You almost signed a divine contract with Sun Ning.”

The handsome man did not deny it, and sighed with regret: “Yes, but I hesitated for only a moment, and the Snow Girl got there first.”

After saying that, he took the initiative to change the subject:
“Speaking of which, have all the little demons sitting here signed contracts with the Spirit Master?”

The girl nodded and said, “Feng Li has already followed Dong Ye Gang. Now there is no one under the great demon who has not signed a contract.”

The banquet venue on the mountaintop platform fell into silence.

The coexistence of humans and demons can be said to be the fundamental system that has been passed down to this day in the demon land of this desperate dark continent.

Monsters use their magic power to help humans open up a space for controlling spirits. As a result, humans become spirit masters and are able to initially control monsters and have the power to hunt big evil creatures outside the monster land.

In other words, this is actually an alternative system of chefs and food hunters.

The Spirit Master is a human and a demon who practice by devouring delicious food together, and at the same time uses the food to purify the pollution of the body and mind.

Therefore, the system of spirit masters where humans and demons coexist, strengthening themselves by devouring gourmet cells, can be said to be a characteristic of the demon land, and it is estimated that it is difficult to find a similar inheritance in other places.

Most of the little demons that did not sign a contract with anyone could not hold on, and now they are almost extinct.

Those that can tenaciously maintain their monster bodies without any mutations, such as the “Wind Fox” that signed a contract with Dong Ye Gang two or three years ago, their practice is already very close to the level of a great monster.

In other words, there are no more monsters below the Great Demon Realm in the Monster Land that people can sign contracts with.

What about the seven demons?
The girl’s expression was slightly strange. She looked at the seven demons present carefully and thought to herself:

“Six of the great demons have signed contracts with the shrine maidens. They cannot vacate their positions unless they pass away.”

Finally, her gaze turned to the seventh great demon who had not signed a contract with anyone.

This is a petite woman.

He has horns on his head and short dark purple hair that reaches his shoulders.

She was drinking heartily at the table, one bowl after another. The wine kept overflowing from the corners of her mouth, soaking her whole body. Even the seat was gradually covered with traces of wine, and the smell of alcohol was overwhelming.

Even with the temperament of the girl Bai, she couldn’t help but twitch her eyes slightly when she saw this: “Shuten doesn’t like the shrine maidens. She has never been close to any of them. The shrine maidens of all generations have never chosen this rebellious and perverse little girl.”

At this time-

The voice of the Great Tengu sounded beside the girl’s ear, using his demonic power to transmit the message: “I don’t think the new God’s Chosen One will be recognized by Shuten and sign a contract with him.”

“Nonsense!” The girl twitched her lips. “Even if his feast can satisfy the entire demon country, it will never make Shuten give in.”

“What should we do?” Fox Girl Long joined the discussion with great interest. “Ban values ​​this new Chosen One very much, but it seems that no monster is willing to sign a contract with him, even though his feast is amazing enough.”

The voice just fell.

Another lazy voice sounded, and the person yawned lazily:

“That’s not the case—”

“Don’t you still have your demon king?”

The three demon kings were all stunned:?

When they reach the level of demon king, they can resist the erosion of negative energy that is everywhere in the dark continent and protect others without the need for a contractor.

But nothing is absolute. What if this chosen one is truly amazing?

The handsome man in the Great Tengu incarnation had a twinkling gaze, and he whispered in his heart: “I still regret missing out on Sun Ning last time. If his talent is not inferior to Sun Ning, I will sign with him.”

……

Two hours later, it was around ten in the morning. The banquet on the hillside below the shrine was very lively, and the residents of the demon village had dinner together as families according to the household registration numbers on the seats.

The main course has not yet been served, but a lot of Japanese sweets such as nerikiri, daifuku, dango, taiyaki, etc. have already been served. The styles are rich and exquisite, and they are obviously made by the shrine maidens.

In addition to dim sum, there are also various appetizers, all of which are lightly pickled vegetables in Japanese style.

Such as radish, cucumber, cabbage, etc.

Serve with kelp, shiso or plum.

It is pickled for a short time with vinegar, soy sauce, miso, sake lees and other condiments. It has a refreshing taste and greatly stimulates people’s appetite.

The chef has yet to show up.

But there were already witches busy in each kitchen.

Shion Miko, or Shion Chief Priest, is the person in charge of the shrine. She returned with the hunting team in the early morning with a fruitful harvest, and then she immediately supervised every aspect of the “feast”.

A complete and grand “feast” does not rely solely on the cooking skills of the chosen ones, but the shrine maidens also have to assist in completing other aspects.

Pay first, that is, the appetizer;
The bowl, or soup, of matsutake mushrooms cooked with seasonal ingredients is ready to be served;
Xiangfu, which is a sashimi platter, is also a classic fish dish in the [Life Menu].

Twenty kilometers west of the Monster Town is the Misty Black Sea, which is rich in fish resources.

The person in charge of this link was the genius shrine maiden named Asakura Ritsuki.

At this time, in the sub-kitchen that specializes in slaughtering large seafood.

The cool and elegant Asakura Liyue stood on the blood stain, staring coldly at a giant seafood that was still struggling and bleeding on the floor.

It was a huge, pure golden deep-sea bluefin tuna.

Pure Golden Tuna, caught at level 40, only 6 levels lower than the more rare [Pure Golden Whale].

“Li Yue, are you okay?”

Shion, the shrine maiden, came to inspect and saw Asakura Liyue dismembering a tuna with a kitchen knife. She was not surprised that this talented shrine maiden could hunt down such a rare pure gold seafood. “Matsutake Dobin miso soup is being served. You don’t have much time to prepare for the ‘Xiangfu’ segment.”

“Well, you have to trust my knife skills. I’ll cut out the ‘naked meat’ first.”

Asakura Liyue’s hands kept moving. The huge deep-sea fantasy fish was like a toy in her hands. It was easily disintegrated into several parts, and the fish head was separated from the body. She used a kitchen knife to cut it: “Here, the ‘naked meat’ is.”

“Pfft-“

A moment later, perfectly sliced ​​slices of deep red lean tuna sashimi filled plate after plate.

The other servants in the kitchen skillfully placed the sashimi on an ice plate, ground the wasabi, and added a little soy sauce to make the sauce.

Nakadashi, which means leaner fish;
Mid-belly refers to half fat and half lean, with a balanced ratio of fat and lean meat;
The big belly is the top-grade sashimi, with marbled fat that melts in your mouth.

After Asakura Ritsuki cut the naked body and middle belly meat of the pure golden tuna, she cut out the remaining top-quality belly part and supplied it specifically to the monsters on the top of the mountain.

Shion Miko continued to inspect the next kitchen.

Next, the fourth part of the feast is meat dishes and meat dishes.

“Meat dishes, big meat dishes.”

“The dishes of the Chosen One, or rather, he is in charge of this aspect.”

A recipe called “Crispy Ruby Crab Legs” came to Shion Miko’s mind.

That’s right, when she was describing the various aspects of the banquet yesterday, she repeatedly asked and confirmed the banquet aspects that Xia An would be responsible for and the recipes that he would demonstrate his cooking skills with.

Standing at the door of the large kitchen reserved for the banquet chef, Shion Miko looked a little strange.

Strictly speaking, the recipe for “Crispy Ruby Crab Legs” should be classified as the third category of fish.

But she respected Xia An’s opinion.

Since Xia An said that “Crispy Ruby Crab Legs” is suitable to be presented in the meat dish segment, let’s arrange it that way.

“Sigh–“

There was the sound of frying in oil, and bursts of rich aroma wafted out from the door of the big kitchen.

Shion Miko and the two substitute little miko behind her felt their appetites instantly aroused, as if the appetite demon in their hearts had broken free of a cage and were shouting excitedly.

After suppressing her appetite with great difficulty, Shion Miko walked into the kitchen, looked around, and said softly:

“Hey, Chosen One, are you having any trouble preparing the meal? Is there anything I can help you with…”

Before she finished speaking, Shion Miko stopped, her eyebrows twitching.

The two substitute little witches followed in and were also shocked by the scene before them.

No wonder we could hear the frying sounds and smell the rich aroma outside. It turned out that all the stoves and cookers in this large kitchen exclusively for the feast chef were in operation.

The oil pans were erected high, and the heat flow collided violently in the air, like a volcano awakening.

“Difficulty…help?”

Xia An was busy moving the tenth oil pan, turning on the fire and observing the oil temperature. Hearing this, he thought seriously and said, “Then you help me keep an eye on the oil temperature of these ten oil pans while I go coat the crab legs with batter.”

When it comes to preparing food, even with the magical skill of [Silver Chopsticks and Ten Pots Return], it is difficult for him to complete the miscellaneous work of ten people by himself.

The ancient skills will only be effective during the formal cooking process.

If he had known earlier, he should have told Kobayashi Ryodan at the end of the festival to let the female disciple stay on Cat Island on standby, so that he could teleport back through the coordinate point and bring the female disciple to help.

Moreover, it is not a problem to bring a companion with them for teleportation. The shrine allows them, the chosen ones of God, to bring relatives and friends, but only one person is allowed.

Shion Miko nodded and asked two substitute little Miko to help.

She herself walked to the slaughtering scene out of curiosity.

Looking at the Ruby Crabs that had lost their legs, these fresh level 46 diamond pseudo-scale ingredients were the ones she led the team to hunt down overnight.

She reached out her hand and felt the smooth cut surface, and couldn’t help but say, “It seems that you, the Chosen One, have a kitchen blade that can cut through iron like mud.”

The witch knew very well how hard the turtle shells of these ruby ​​crabs were.

Xia An was coating a large bowl of chopped crab legs with batter: “I’m still not used to the name of God’s Chosen One. You can just call me Chef Xia or Chef Xia An.”

“Okay, Lord Chosen One.”

Xia An:?
This witch sister is a bit naughty.

His eyebrows were slightly raised, but his hands were still skillfully and smoothly coating the crab legs with batter, revealing a kind of immortal charm.

“What kind of eating skill is this?” The Shion priestess was surprised. She was attracted by Xia An’s slender white hands. She walked closer unconsciously and stared at him closely.

“Please call me the Massage Master.”

Shion Miko: ? ?

The witch’s face flushed and she spat softly, “How dare you use such a metaphor.”

“I’m serious. It’s a very healthy and harmonious health care technique. There’s nothing dirty about it.”

Xia An glanced at the food skills panel.

The [Soothing Touch] and [Large Massage Hands] with perfect proficiency, due to the powerful Sequence 4 cells in his body, are in an unprecedented state, and are fully fired at the same time.
