Cheating Is Absolutely Forbidden / Eat What You Want to Grow

"You're guaranteed to make money?"

The Queen Sheba replied matter-of-factly, "I'm the house! Of course I have to take a cut, after all, I also bear a lot of risk."

Risk my foot!

And is this just a little bit? Is this only half a bit?

Yuxian had no intention of disturbing the Queen Sheba's business, but he himself felt he wouldn't get involved. It was better to stay away from such unscrupulous merchants, lest he be sold out and then have to count the money for her.

Elizabeth Báthory had arrived at some point and ran over to Yuxian, saying, "Manager, let me be the host this time!"

Yu Xian thought about it for Yuxian and thought it was fine, so he nodded in agreement. Elizabeth Báthory happily ran to adjust the microphone and speakers.

As long as there's no singing, everything is fine. Having a host does make the atmosphere better and makes it seem more formal.

Teacher Qiao was already adjusting the focus of his DSLR camera from various angles, trying to select the best shooting position.

One by one, the Chaldea arrived, and the scene gradually became noisy.

Even though the Shokugeki is still a long way off, everyone's enthusiasm has already been fully unleashed.

Da Vinci walked over and praised, "Master, you've finally done something reliable. Look, everyone is very happy."

"Was I really that unreliable before?" Yuxian pouted and said with dissatisfaction.

Da Vinci looked at Yuxian with a smile, "You'll have to ask your Master yourself... Well, you can ask Mash too."

Yuxian said he didn't want to talk to Da Vinci; he wanted to chat with other people. He hadn't seen many of them in a long time, and as their Master, he needed to greet them and not neglect anyone.

The Tōtsuki Academy building is completely closed today. The food supplies in the warehouse have been prepared in advance, and students passing by can occasionally hear noise coming from inside the building.

The appearance of so many Heroic Spirit before mortals is not an easy thing to explain, and keeping it closed to the public can avoid a lot of trouble.

This is a carnival belonging to Chaldea.

It's been a long time since we've all gathered together in such a lively atmosphere.

Even before the official program started, the atmosphere on set was already festive.

Section 510, Chapter 43: Cheating is Absolutely Prohibited

The entire venue wasn't entirely filled with Chaldea members; there were also outsiders present.

For example, Erina Nakiri, the new headmaster of the Tōtsuki Academy.

She was ultimately elected as the commander-in-chief, which was probably what everyone expected, since no one was more suitable for the position than her.

She stood there, a little dazed, still reeling from the scene after being pulled there by Xiao Ai.

"Xiao Ai, are these all your companions?"

Xiao Ai tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering, "... There are also enemies."

Anyone who tries to steal her dessert is an enemy, no doubt about it.

Erina knew what Xiao Ai meant by "enemy," but she didn't take it seriously.

"I feel like there's something... something..."

Erina racked her brains but still couldn't find the right words to describe it. Even if she was completely ignorant of the ways of the world, she knew that the people at the scene were extraordinary. The sight of them appearing suddenly as if by magic was enough to shock her.

"Xiao Ai, why can Illya fly?"

"Have no idea."

"How did they suddenly appear?"

"Have no idea."

What is that big bird that the children are surrounding?

"Have no idea."

Erina stared speechlessly at Xiao Ai, who knew absolutely nothing about the matter.

"How come you don't know anything? Aren't they all your partners?"

"I joined because there was dessert!"

The reasons are very valid.

Erina finally realized that she probably wouldn't get any information from Xiao Ai. She wasn't so curious as to ask around, and just stood quietly with Xiao Ai and watched.

Besides Erina Nakiri, Megumi Tadokoro was also brought here by Tamamo Cat.

Compared to Erina, Megumi Tadokoro is much simpler. She doesn't ask questions, but simply follows behind Tamamo Cat closely, as she is shy.

Tamamo no Mae saw Megumi Tadokoro, she gave her a kind smile; she had already heard about the girl.

Without hesitation, Tamamo Cat took a step and shielded Megumi Tadokoro behind her.

She warned Megumi Tadokoro, "That's a bad fox, remember to stay far away from her! Woof!"

Megumi Tadokoro nodded. Although she didn't think Tamamo no Mae was dangerous, but rather felt a sense of familiarity with her, she trusted Tamamo Cat's words.

Yuxian happened to be nearby and said to Tamamo Cat in an annoyed tone, "Don't impose your personal feelings on others!"

He introduced her to Megumi Tadokoro, saying, "Don't be afraid, that's Tamamo no Mae, she's very easy to talk to."

Yuxian's words made Megumi Tadokoro, who was not afraid at first, become frightened instead.

"Great, great, great... great demon... Tamamo- Tamamo no Mae?"

Tamamo no Mae suddenly appeared behind Megumi Tadokoro, patted her shoulder, and said to Yuxian with a reproachful tone, "Is Master talking badly about me?"

"Look how scared they are!"

She smiled and said to Megumi Tadokoro, "Don't listen to them, I'm very virtuous and gentle."

"It will eat people!" Osakabehime made a face, deliberately trying to scare Megumi Tadokoro.

Megumi Tadokoro's heart skipped a beat, and she began to wail incessantly, "I'm going to be eaten! I'm going to be eaten!"

Tamamo no Mae- no-Mae glared angrily at Osakabehime, "When did I eat anyone!"

"Yes, yes, you never eat people. You're a kind and good monster. You just accidentally bring down a country occasionally."

The two then started playfully fighting, completely disregarding their monster image.

Megumi Tadokoro suddenly felt less scared and blinked, thinking that monsters weren't so scary after all.

There are indeed people in this venue who are genuinely afraid.

The butler who had always been by Artoria's side was now terrified.

He was looking down, seemingly lost in thought.

Unlike Erina and Megumi Tadokoro, who are both elderly, his limited experience makes him extremely uneasy.

"Da Vinci, bouncing around like a little girl; Francis Drake, laughing heartily; Jeanne d'Arc; Nero; and Heracles, all muscle."

Each of them was a legendary figure, and he dared not look up for more than a moment, for fear of being silenced if he were not careful.

They'll definitely be silenced for knowing such a secret.

"No need to be nervous," Artoria reassured him, noticing his tension.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The butler's attitude was exceptionally respectful. If at first he was only respecting Artoria because of orders from above, now his respect was absolutely from the bottom of his heart.

"King of Knights! So I really am serving the King of Knights! What an honor this is!"

His heart was screaming; at this moment, he wished the whole world knew about it, but he knew it could only be buried deep in his heart.

No one can tell you; this secret must be taken to the grave.

Three bystanders, not belonging to Chaldea, were fortunate enough to participate in this carnival with different feelings.

This is indeed their glory, but it is also what they deserve.

Being brought here means they are trusted. Whether it's Artoria, Xiao Ai, or Tamamo Cat, they were all brought to this rare and grand occasion because they trust them.

Time passed slowly amidst the noise and commotion, and finally the last person arrived, bringing everyone together.

After receiving the message that it was time to begin, the Elizabeth Báthory made a dazzling appearance as the host.

"Good evening, everyone! I'm your lovely and charming super idol Elizabeth!"

"Tonight we will have a major program for Chaldea!"

"The Battle of the Grand Order Chef!"

The Elizabeth Báthory delivered her opening remarks with great flair, showing that she was indeed working hard to pursue her idol path, which drew cheers from the crowd.

"Let me first introduce today's main character."

"Standing to my left is the head chef of Chaldea, Emiya, who, after retiring from the battlefield, plunged into the kitchen and found a second spring in his Emiya!"

Thunderous applause erupted. Emiya pursed his lips, but finally broke into a wide smile.

"Uncle Emiya will win!"

"Go Emiya!"

There were waves of support; Emiya had quite a few supporters, after all, he was the head chef of Chaldea.

The Elizabeth Báthory gestured for quiet before continuing her introduction.

"Standing to my right is the culinary instructor from Chaldea, and the reliable proprietress of Enma-tei — Kurenai Enma!"

Kurenai Enma's expression was serious. At this moment, she had to show her true abilities; Emiya was a formidable opponent.

"Teacher Hong will win!"

"Teacher Hong is the best in the world!"

Many people also voiced their support for Kurenai Enma, especially those who had studied in her classes; their voices were particularly loud.

"Both athletes are ready."

While engaging the audience, the Elizabeth Báthory continued to preside over the event according to the established procedures.

"This Shokugeki will determine who will become the Grand Order Chef of Chaldea. The judging panel will be composed of everyone present, and each person will cast their own sacred vote."

"Here, Elizabeth wants to reiterate: absolutely no cheating!"

This was Yuxian: this time, we absolutely cannot let those troublemakers cause trouble and ruin this rare spectacle.

"Finally, the Chaldea Master will announce the topic of this Shokugeki."

Chapter 44, Section 511: What You Eat Replenishes What You Need

Yuxian slowly walked up and took the microphone from Elizabeth Báthory's hand.

"The ingredients and seasonings for this Shokugeki are limited to those currently available in the warehouse area, and the title is only one word."

"Dragon!"

"Go ahead and give it your all!"

After finishing his brief remarks, Yuxian handed the microphone back to Elizabeth Báthory.

As soon as Elizabeth Báthory picked up the microphone, she patted her chest and said, "You scared me to death!"

"Those of you who, like me, have the dragon attribute, don't worry about being turned into food. The ingredients this time are limited."

"Whether the dish looks like a dragon or tastes like a dragon, it's all within the scope of the topic."

"By the way, what does dragon meat taste like? I really don't know, can anyone tell me?"

The Elizabeth Báthory's words immediately sparked a flurry of discussion.

"Let's go hunt one down and try it next time, it should be quite interesting."
