As the others prepared to get off the bus, they noticed the nervous Megumi Tadokoro and reassured her, "Megumi, don't be nervous, everything will be alright!"

"Maybe the teacher inside has a very nice personality and is an excellent cook."

Megumi Tadokoro was on the verge of tears. She stammered, "This is where Erina internship..."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing that Megumi Tadokoro and Erina had been here, everyone immediately turned their attention to them.

"Xiao Hui, how is it here? Tell me quickly."

Megumi Tadokoro didn't know what to say, and she stood there silently.

Erina, standing to the side, spoke up, "The chefs inside are incredibly skilled!"

She used "very" three times in a row, immediately whetting everyone's appetite and making them exclaim how lucky they were.

Someone who receives such high praise from Erina must be exceptionally skilled in cooking. To be able to learn from such a master chef is an opportunity that comes along only once in a lifetime.

Erina said calmly, "You are indeed very lucky..."

After saying that, she didn't say anything more. Anyway, she wasn't on the training camp roster this time, so she didn't point it out.

Erina was even looking forward to the scene of these people being trained by Kurenai Enma; it would definitely be very interesting.

Because we rushed here overnight, it's already very late, and Enma-tei has long since closed for the night.

Yuxian stepped forward and knocked on the door.

With a creak, the door opened.

Attila glanced at Yuxian in front of her, blinked, and closed the door again.

"Hey, Attila, don't be so heartless!"

"We're closed. Please come early tomorrow!" Attila's voice came from behind the door.

She didn't show any joy at seeing Yuxian, but Attila, with her excellent intuition, knew as soon as she saw Yuxian that trouble was coming.

Yuxian finally managed to get Attila to open the door and let them in.

The group arrived at the backyard of Enma-tei. Unlike Attila, Kurenai Enma chatted happily with everyone.

"Teacher Hong... Teacher Hong..."

Megumi Tadokoro stepped forward and greeted Kurenai Enma politely; it would have been even better if her body hadn't been trembling.

"You're here too, chirp. Have your cooking skills improved, chirp?"

Megumi Tadokoro remained silent, unsure of what to say.

She hadn't made any progress in just a few days, but she didn't dare say anything and could only lower her head and remain silent.

Yuxian quickly stepped forward to help her out of the predicament. He said to Kurenai Enma, "Teacher Hong, I have something to ask of you this time."

He recounted the whole story to Kurenai Enma, "And asked Teacher Red to give them a month of special training."

"Okay, chirp."

Kurenai Enma nodded in agreement without refusing. Teaching students to cook was something she had always done, so having a few more wouldn't be a big problem.

Attila, however, complained a bit, muttering, "I knew nothing good would come when the Master arrived."

"We're very busy, okay?"

Yuxian didn't know how to respond. Attila seemed to have something on her mind, so he secretly made a mental note of it.

Kurenai Enma waved her hand and said, "It's alright. Tell the other chefs to take a break. They'll take over the kitchen work from now on."

Once you're in her kitchen, you have to listen to her; in her eyes, these students are no different from other chefs.

The backyard of Enma-tei was spacious enough for the group to squeeze in, so they decided not to look for another place to stay.

All the students from Totsuki Academy went to rest, Yuxian found Kurenai Enma to discuss the specific plan with her.

At the same time, Emiya was also summoned here with the materials prepared by Da Vinci.

"Thank you for your hard work, Emiya."

Yuxian nodded to Emiya, explaining that calling him over to help was also part of the plan.

Emiya smiled and said, "I don't care, it's the same wherever I am."

"However, the other people in Chaldea are very resentful. Master, you should consider how to appease them."

The head chef was called away by Yuxian. If it weren't for Da Vinci stopping him, the Chaldea group would probably have come over to protest to Yuxian.

Hearing what Emiya said, Yuxian felt a chill run down his spine.

However, now was clearly not the time to worry about such things. He picked up Da Vinci's materials and began to examine them carefully.

It must be said that Da Vinci truly lived up to his reputation as a master of theory. Through the information on the students that Yuxian had transmitted, Da Vinci meticulously planned the training arrangements for each person, leaving no room for error. Even the Kurenai Enma could not find any flaws in his plans.

"Do it this way!"

Yuxian said to the two of them, "You've worked hard this past month. It's okay if you lose, just do your best."

Ultimately, this competition was just a battle of wills and had no impact on Yuxian himself. He would leave sooner or later after finding the person, and it didn't matter who became the commander-in-chief of Tougetsu.

It's just that I feel a little embarrassed.

But is Yu Yuxian someone who cares about saving face? Face can't put food on the table.

Emiya shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Master, I'm afraid we can't lose."

"Why?"

"If I lose, I'm afraid Da Vinci-chan might kill someone..."

Yuxian was taken aback. He had forgotten about this. If he really slunk back, Da Vinci would probably really be furious.

Damaging her reputation as a genius is far more serious than making her work overtime.

Yuxian's expression immediately changed. He slammed his hand heavily on the document on the table and said decisively:

"Then let's win!"

Chapter 25, Section 491: When Faker Meets Faker

The next morning, after getting up, Yuxian gathered everyone together.

"These are the two teachers I found for you, Emiya and Kurenai Enma."

He introduced Emiya and Kurenai Enma to everyone, and then took out the training plan prepared by Da Vinci, distributed it to everyone, and let them read the arrangements on it themselves.

"Time is tight, you all need to give it your all." Yuxian said with a frown, "I've changed my mind. This time you must win all six Shokugeki. If you lose, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Teacher Hong, the rest is up to you."

Kurenai Enma nodded, took over the conversation, and began to seriously arrange the work.

She was not polite at all. She made sure everyone was mopping the floor, wiping the tables, and washing the vegetables, treating them like employees.

"What are you standing there for? Go help wash the vegetables!"

Erina was taken aback. She wasn't here for an internship; she had been standing on the sidelines waiting to watch the show, but suddenly Kurenai Enma turned her gaze to her.

"Um... Teacher Hong, I didn't come here to learn this time..."

Before Erina could finish speaking, Kurenai Enma glared at her, "You're not going to be a chef anymore, huh?"

To the Secretaryko's astonishment, Erina actually started washing the vegetables, and she did it quite well, her movements were very skilled, not at all like a young lady who never did any manual labor.

"Ducks, ducks..." Satoshi Isshiki, seeing this, smiled and seemed about to say something.

However, Kurenai Enma instantly looked at him with sharp eyes, and Satoshi Isshiki's face stiffened. He very consciously picked up the mop and started mopping the floor.

He realized that this teacher was definitely the kind of tyrant in the kitchen. He had seen Erina's performance and knew exactly what to do.

"Hey you lazy cat over there, get moving! Stop slacking off, you'll die if you sleep a little less! kiss"

Once you enter Kurenai Enma's kitchen, you have to listen to her.

Yuxian and the children understood this perfectly well, and refused to go inside no matter what, choosing instead to play outside on their own.

Listening to the bustling sounds coming from the kitchen, everyone was full of enthusiasm, hoping they could maintain this drive in the next few days.

Emiya received instructions from Yuxian Xian to give special attention to Soma Yukihira.

Compared to Soma Yukihira demeanor, Emiya appeared very relaxed and composed.

However, his movements were not slow at all, Soma Yukihira could hardly keep up with the pace.

Emiya was deliberately slowing down. You have to understand that Chaldea can take care of so many people in Emiya, including several big eaters. How could Emiya's cooking speed be slow?

At this point, he's practically resting.

Emiya was already taking into account that Soma Yukihira was just an ordinary person with insufficient physical strength, and was afraid that he would collapse from exhaustion.

"Is it alright?"

"No problem!"

Emiya glanced at Soma Yukihira and, seeing the satisfied smile on his face, immediately sped up.

On the other side, Tamamo Cat was processing meat with a few other people.

She swung the knife wildly, making a series of loud thuds as if she wanted to tear the flesh in front of her into pieces.

However, after she finished cutting, the group found that each piece of meat was just right, with no flaws whatsoever.

They stared at Tamamo Cat with utter bewilderment, their faces full of question marks.

How do I learn this?

The kitchen was bustling with activity, while customers came and went from the restaurant outside.

Soma Yukihira was finally exhausted and out of breath, so Emiya stopped pushing him too hard.

Emiya even had the leisure to bake a cake while taking care of Soma Yukihira.

Early that morning, several children had secretly begged him to do this.

Emiya would never refuse the children's requests. He was happy to make desserts for them and felt a great sense of satisfaction seeing them happily eating with their mouths full of sweets.

Subaru Mimasaka had been watching Emiya's every move from behind. Seeing how meticulous Emiya was in making the cake, he immediately felt confident.

Subaru Mimasaka followed Emiya's lead and started making a cake too; he was trying to imitate him.

Emiya had naturally noticed Subaru Mimasaka's actions, but he smiled noncommittally and even deliberately slowed down his movements so that Subaru Mimasaka could see more clearly.

When it comes to imitation, Emiya is second to none.

He was not opposed to imitation at all, and the idea of testing Subaru Mimasaka in his heart arose.

The two cakes were finished almost simultaneously.

Emiya said, "Take it out and give it to the children."

Subaru Mimasaka immediately took out two cakes that looked exactly the same and went to find the children.

"The cake is here."

He placed both cakes in front of the children at the same time, deliberately not saying which one he made.

The children's eyes lit up, and they quickly began to share the cake.

"Uncle Emiya's cake is absolutely amazing!"

"Xiao Ai, you've finished your portion, stop grabbing!"

"Exactly! If you want to eat something else, go eat the other one!"

Xiao Ai glanced at another cake on the table, pursed her lips, and ultimately didn't touch it.

After eating Emiya's cake, why would she go and eat another one? She's not stupid.
