I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1046: 16.92 First Red Star - Cooking (II)

The Second Trial finally begins. After all the prey were weighed, the couple went to the warehouse according to their rankings and took whatever ingredients they needed for cooking. Each couple has three types when it comes to cooking. Either one of the couples is able to cook, both couples are able to cook and neither of the couple canʼt cook. The last pair is quite hard to handle and they can only cook their prey over fire with salt and honey.

The second trial feels like a food variety show in which the participants are judged by the food they cooked. Thankfully the criteria for it donʼt seem strict as long as the food is edible they would be able to pass.

This is the time for the future mates to show that they can feed their warriors. Most female beastmen would do their best to cook the best meals and favorites of their partner. In this trial, the female beastmen or their other halves would try their best to please their partners. As long as they get a hold of their future husbandʼs stomach they should be able to get their attention and love. Of course, there are some couples in which even the warriors do the cooking. These men were collectively known as henpecked men.

Henpecked husband ranked 2 in the Trial, Mayonaka Yoru. He is now cooking a Dinosaur steak for his lover. Even prepared a few appetizers and side dishes before the man. Serve a glass of red wine to fit the meal he made with the meat of the Triceratops.

Mayonaka Yoru ate dinner with his Luna and even asked for his comment for that nightʼs meal, ”Este-chan, how is it? I cooked it to your liking. Medium Rare Dinosaur Steak.”

The scholar looking at a young man gracefully wipes the corner of his lips and lifts his plate. ”Another plate, please.” Esther Dawn said.

Upon hearing this response, Mayonaka Yoru couldnʼt stop grinning as he served another plate for his Luna. Not far from them Keylan Light and Great Elder Tuya were enjoying such delicious steak. They couldnʼt even open their mouths and raise a number sign of 10. In most food contests this is a perfect score.

Keylan Light said, ”This is quite delicious.”

”You are such a great cook, Sonny!” Great Elder Tuya said after swallowing whatever is in their mouths during the tasting. The pair was kind enough to cook a plate for each of them.

Henpecked husband ranked 3. The man was kicked out of the kitchen by his future wife after destroying the chopping board and wasting vegetables she asked to be cut. He can only join the other warriors who were in the same situation as them. Looking at their partner from a distance with puppy eyes.

Asher Light stares at his girlfriend, ”Amy~ I promise I will not destroy the kitchen anymore.”

”No. Stay there. Donʼt bother me when Iʼm cooking!” Amber Dawn said.

(QAQ)

A few while later Amber Dawn asked, ”What do you want to eat? I will make it for you but donʼt enter the kitchen. What will you do if you cut your fingers? Or if you burn yourself, just stay away for a while.” Obviously, worrying about him being hurt as he moves carelessly in the kitchen. But she still asks what the latter wants to eat, obviously willing to cook for him.

A bright smile appeared on Asher Lightʼs face making him look like a real holy son. ”Amy~ I know you love me! I want some braised dinosaur with eggs, BBQ, and then some Egg tomato soup as well as a large serving of white rice!”

After a few hours, the requested dishes were all served on a small table. Eating besides Asher Light were Keylan Light and Great Elder Tuya. They werenʼt like Asher Light who looks like he is wolfing down his food. But it is clear on their faces that the meal was satisfying and delicious.

Keylan Light said, ”You will be a good wife in the future.”

”You have a bright future ahead of you. You two have passed the Second Trial.” Great Elder Tuya announced.

Amber Dawn and Asher Light were the second ones to pass. They wanted to check on the last couple, Conri Lycaon and Carnelian Dawn but when they saw how busy the pair were, they couldnʼt help but think ʼJust how many dishes do these two plan on making?ʼ. But like other dishes, the cuisine this pair is cooking is varied... Thereʼs a burger, macaroni, shawarma, crepe, pancakes, and more. It was as if they wanted to cook all kinds of dishes that are possible to make with all their ingredients.

In the end, Keylan Light and Tuya decided to check on them last and look at the other pair. There are many decent pairs among the participants but there are also some who barely made it. When they tried to eat an almost charcoal-flavored roasted chicken, they almost failed the pair that cooked it.

”Iʼm sorry. Iʼm still learning. The fire was too strong so it got burned but the inside should still be edible.”

The partner of the female beastmen ate the roasted chicken with a smile, ”Miaomiao, youʼve improved! Youʼve worked hard.”

”I... I will definitely make some food that doesnʼt burn next time. I promise. I will practice more.”

Seeing the sweet interaction between the couple The two judges looked at one another and exchanged a nod. They can see that the warrior thinks the food is edible even though it was half burned. At least the chicken itself was cooked well, except for its burned skin.

”You two passed well. Good job, child!” The Great Elder Tuya said with a smile.

The nervous female beastman was so delighted that he hugged his fiance. Because of the age gap between the two of them, his partner would always dote on him but the female beastman wanted to do something for his partner and thus he started cooking. But his practice was too short and the Trial for Mateship had suddenly begun. After his partner asked him whether he wanted to try doing the trial with him, he was hesitant at first but seeing his loverʼs pampering gaze he decided to try it.

His cooking was already at a normal stage but because he is a bit nervous and conscious of the trial that his roasted chicken burned a bit. He wanted to cry but didnʼt want to make it hard for his protector so when he heard from the Great Elder Tuya and Lord Keylan Light then they passed not only the first and second stages. He was extremely glad that they made it.

After checking the rest of the couple, they finally ended up checking on the last couple, Conri Lycaon and Carnelian Dawn. Thankfully, they finished cooking and made a few huge pots of various soups, main dishes, side dishes, and desserts. Keylan Light and Great Elder Tuya were dumbfounded at the sight of so much food.

Keylan Light asked, ”Didnʼt you make too much!?”

”Not much. I still donʼt think itʼs enough but we wanted to give our thanks for saving us this morning and made a lot for everyone to share. I hope the brothers, uncles, sisters, aunts, grandpas, and grandmas as well as the children like our cooking. Thank you once again for saving us!” Carnelian Dawn said.

Conri Lycaon said, ”Please donʼt be shy and get what you want to eat. Letʼs eat dinner together.”

The warriors in the audience cheered. It was indeed quite hard to watch others cooking and eating without having the same thing theyʼve been drooling at the sight of food from the open field and were delighted to hear that they also got some food from the participants. Seeing this, the rest of the participants also made more and shared with everyone. At the end of the Second Trial, a huge dinner feast with everyone in the city had been enjoyed for the whole night.

It didnʼt take awhile for someone to start partying, even bringing out wines, beers, and liquors which made the evening more boisterous and joyous. Everyone enjoyed the dinner at the end of the day resulting in some drunkards laying on the ground asleep and their partners having to be dragged back home. It was such a funny sight to see countless warriors being dragged back home by their mates like a sack of potatoes being dragged on the ground.

During the evening party, it was announced that the final stage of the trial would begin tomorrow and the passing participants were asked to gather outside the Illusion Forest in which the final stage of the Trial would take place. After receiving the instructions, venue, and time, they all continue to enjoy the party.

Meanwhile at the Ancestral Village...

Shen Siwang was busy in the kitchen making some stew as his wifey had requested. He also made all the other favorite foods of his beloved and ate at the former house where Hei Anjing and Ye Xiajie live as Xuebao and Meizhou. The place is completely maintained and after the two wardens cleaned it up for the Lord, the place became somehow livable.

Warden Lou and Warden Yun didnʼt join their two Superiors on their dinner date. They had to go back to their former place to make dinner for themselves as well. They were only here to give guidance to the two esteemed lords after they passed their Lord Godʼs message to his brother. In the end, they can only stay here until the two Venerable Lords complete what they came from.

After all, the two wardens, werenʼt that close with their Lordʼs brother and Lord Heiʼs family. There are subordinates of the two but this is the first time they were tasked to serve the two. Since there was no relationship between them It was quite awkward to speak a word or respond to the couple. Sovereign the Tyrant God was a lot scarier than Lord Hei.

At least Lord Hei would smile at them even though mischievously but Sovereign Lord Mo Baojun rarely smiles. Even in front of Sovereign Ruler Shen Siwang, the expression on his face doesnʼt change at all. Of course, the reactions of the two wardens didnʼt escape the eyes of the two, and felt that this pair was a bit too nervous.

Shen Siwang flashed a big and gleaming smile. Seeing a Sovereign Ruler like this the two wardens felt they had suffered a mind block. They forget to even respond or react upon hearing those words of Shen Siwang.

”Too stiff! Go back home and rest. There is no need to stay by our side all the time. You also came here to investigate something, right? Go ahead and complete your main tasks. We will call you if we need you.” Shen Siwang said.

Mo Baojun also spoke and said, ”Be careful. Tracing the trace of the World Eater is quite dangerous no one knows when his fragment would appear. His fragments had their own mind but move accordingly to their obsession. In short, they cause madness everywhere they are in.” They wanted to stop possible world destruction caused by it and gathered more information about it. The world eater is the enemy of their bosses after all.
