"Who are these two guys again?"

While Asahi Saiba and his companion were talking, Yuuki also glanced at the two out of the corner of his eye.

Asahi's desire for Yuuki's Seven-Star Knives was stronger than anyone else's.

After Yuuki's Evolving Touch improved, he obviously sensed those gazes and immediately locked onto Asahi.

However, Yuuki didn't recognize Asahi; he just regarded him as a particularly greedy fellow.

After all, few Chefs could see his set of Seven-Star Knives and not be moved.

....

Without paying further attention to others, Yuuki directly activated his Inferno special ability.

Four pillars of fire suddenly surged upwards, the huge visual impact making it impossible for anyone to look away.

"So THIS is his Inferno ability! In a way, it's even more scary than your Cross Knives. Speaking of which, can your Cross Knives copy his special ability?" Asahi Saiba's companion couldn't help but ask.

Asahi's ability could copy special abilities, but he was very curious if Yuuki's overpowered ability was among them.

"How would I know something like that?" Asahi Saiba rolled his eyes.

Actually, he was somewhat eager to try. If he could copy Yuuki's Inferno ability, then he would really be invincible.

....

At this moment, Yuuki was making four dishes simultaneously. However, due to the flames obscuring everything, no one could clearly see what exactly he was doing.

On the other side, Sarge had already finished cutting her ingredients and had also started the next step. Various bizarre kitchen utensils appeared, leaving the onlookers speechless.

This match—one of the competitors enveloped everything in flames, making it impossible to see clearly.

With an explosion, Sarge's dish was completed. On the other side, Yuuki's flames disappeared. Sarge's cooking speed had caught up to Yuuki's.

This wasn't to say she could compare to Yuuki in this aspect; there were multiple reasons.

The True Sea Bream Map Yuuki was making—required making four types of dishes simultaneously, so it was more annoying. Sarge's Armed Dish used special kitchen utensils, which sped up her cooking considerably.

And the dish she made was very simple: A very exquisite sandwich.

Yuuki's True Sea Bream Map had actually undergone some changes. The most important point was the outer layer of fish meat.

Yuuki made the outer layer of fish into grilled fish, which could also be considered a dish in itself—

—And after placing the four types of dishes inside, he continued to heat it, using his absolute control over fire to let the flavor of the fish meat permeate into the dishes a second time, making this dish, although it looked like five dishes, also capable of being considered one when fused together.

Whether eaten separately or together, it was an excellent choice.

"This is... grilled fish? You just grilled an entire fish like that?"

Looking at the fragrant grilled fish before her, Sarge couldn't help but frown. Although the aroma was indeed very rich, this grilled fish looked like a very normal grilled fish, the kind without any seasonings.

This made her frown...

"It's not that easy!"

As Yuuki spoke, the kitchen knife in his hand suddenly slashed.

The next second, the grilled fish's body directly opened up, revealing the four dishes hidden within. The shape of the sea bream after opening up was precisely the shape of a map.

"This... It was actually hidden inside! And this shape..."

Looking at the dish Yuuki presented, everyone was stunned. Just the appearance of this dish before them made it impossible to look away.

Although Sarge's sandwich was very exquisite, compared to Yuuki's dish, it was lacking by more than just a little bit.

Placing the two dishes side by side, without even tasting them, Sarge's dish had already lost miserably.

"My dish is called the True Sea Bream Map. We can taste each other's now, right?" Yuuki said.

Hearing this, Sarge nodded.

Although her dish lost miserably in terms of appearance, they hadn't eaten yet. Who knew what the taste would be like? Maybe she could win in terms of taste?

....

The two tasted each other's dishes respectively.

Although it was just a sandwich, Sarge's Culinary skills were very good. And after the sandwich was completed, it was grilled.

The effect of the final detonator explosion was like an oven.

This sandwich was filled with the flavor of fire; the crispy outer skin paired with the internal ingredients—the texture was impeccable.

Of course, the most crucial part was the impact this dish brought—that impact that made one uncontrollably want to regard Sarge as a queen.

This impact was because of Armed Dish.

For others—this dish was devastatingly powerful. But for Yuuki, this dish had absolutely no effect.

Whether it was Soul Soothing Esoterica or his Emperor's Culinary Heart, neither would be affected.

"Why aren't you tasting my dish? What are you waiting for?"

Yuuki saw Sarge wasn't tasting his dish but was staring intently at him and asked with some amusement.

He had roughly guessed Sarge's thoughts: she wanted to see if he would be conquered by the dish.

Actually, it wasn't just Sarge; anyone who knew the effect of Sarge's special ability was now watching Yuuki.

"Looks like my dish can't affect you. What a pity!"

Hearing Yuuki's words, Sarge knew Yuuki hadn't been affected, so she was somewhat disappointed. Afterwards, she turned her gaze to Yuuki's dish.

Yuuki's dish looked so exquisite it made one reluctant to destroy it. However, this competition ultimately had to have a winner, so Sarge still took a bite.

This one bite—deliciousness exploded on her taste buds and quickly spread throughout her entire body. And this deliciousness, while distinct, also seemed to leave one wanting more.

Sarge realized this and immediately tasted the second dish, then the third, the fourth, and finally, the grilled fish.

When the final piece of grilled fish entered her mouth, a deliciousness several times stronger than before exploded.

At the same time, Sarge found herself as if in an ocean of flames. A giant sea bream swam in the sea of fire. Above the sea of fire was an incomparably huge Flame Emperor.

The moment she saw this Flame Emperor, an urge to kneel in reverence arose in Sarge's heart.

And her body uncontrollably knelt towards the ground.

Her consciousness was very clear now. She knew she was being affected, just like others were affected by her dishes. But she couldn't control her body.

Just like that, under everyone's gazes, Sarge directly knelt on the ground.

....

"She... SHE KNELT!"

"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?? In the past, it was always others kneeling after eating Sarge's dishes! How did it reverse now??"

The audience watched the scene before them with astonishment.

In the past, many who had eaten Sarge's dishes couldn't control themselves and knelt to Sarge, even offering various benefits.

But today, it was finally Sarge's turn to kneel to someone else—

"You've comprehended Culinary Heart! Are you already a Special Class Chef?!" Sarge was completely terrified by this Culinary Heart at this moment.

After finally recovering her senses, the first thing she did wasn't to stand up, but to look up at Yuuki and question him.

"That's right. I've already mastered Culinary Heart."

Looking at Sarge's appearance, Yuuki knew that she had been affected by his Culinary Heart; otherwise, she wouldn't have directly knelt.

"I've NEVER felt such a DOMINEERING Culinary Heart! This is... what I've always been pursuing!"

At this moment, Sarge's eyes looking at Yuuki seemed to carry flames. Of course, this wasn't anger, but a kind of craving.

Although she hadn't reached First Class Chef yet, she was close. So, she had also begun to think about her own Culinary Heart.

Yuuki's Culinary Heart was what she had always been searching for. So, at this moment, her gaze towards Yuuki was incredibly fervent.

And she knew very well that this Culinary Heart was definitely not something she could comprehend. Because the moment she knelt just now meant she couldn't comprehend Culinary Heart of this level.

At this moment, she was completely convinced. Towards Yuuki, her initial desire to conquer had transformed into complete submission.

"Yuuki-sama, please allow me to pledge my loyalty to you!"

Although Sarge's body had returned to normal, she didn't stand up but directly chose to submit to Yuuki.

Looking at Sarge before him, Yuuki fell into deep thought.

Honestly, he was tempted.

One reason was that Sarge was very beautiful. He was also a normal man and liked beautiful women.

Another reason was that he had experienced the benefits of having a secretary during this period. Hisako Arato could arrange all sorts of work perfectly, without him needing to worry.

Otherwise, although he could do those trivial matters, he would find them annoying.

When he returned to Tōtsuki, Hisako would definitely continue to be responsible for everything related to Erina.

At that time, he wouldn't have a secretary, so Yuuki also decided to find one.

"I'm lacking a secretary. Try it out first. If it's suitable, then stay—" Yuuki said after thinking for a moment.

Sarge, whether in terms of appearance or Culinary skills, was impeccable.

But he didn't know if Sarge could be a good secretary, so he planned to try her out for a period first.

"I understand, Yuuki-sama!"

Hearing this, Sarge's face lit up. She directly stood up and came to Yuuki's side. It was clear she had genuinely submitted to Yuuki.

"As expected of Officer Yuuki, who has no prior battle record at WGO! To make this queen directly submit!"

Watching Yuuki directly take Sarge as his secretary, the others were very envious.

Being able to subdue Sarge was Yuuki's skill. If it were them, they would only be conquered by Sarge.

So, just being envious was enough.

....

This match ended with Yuuki winning.

Many people wanted to take the opportunity to build a good relationship with Yuuki, so they gathered around at this time.

But Sarge had already entered her role—with a sweep of her chainsaw knife, those who wanted to get close were directly scared away.

However, among these people, there were also some who weren't afraid of Sarge. Yuuki noticed the person approaching—this was the person who had previously shown extreme greed for his knives.

This greed was stronger than others', so much so that even Yuuki noticed it. So, just as Sarge was about to stop him, Yuuki stopped her.

"A pleasure to meet you, Officer Yuuki. My name is Asahi Saiba, a Midnight Chef. Why didn't you let Ms. Sarge stop me?"

Seeing Yuuki stop Sarge, Asahi Saiba introduced himself and then asked with some confusion.

"Asahi Saiba? That surname does sound familiar. As for why I didn't stop you—because just now, you showed strong greed for my knives. That kind of greedy gaze is hard not to notice." Yuuki said.

Hearing the name Asahi Saiba, he now knew why he was staring so covetously at his knives.

Asahi Saiba's special ability mainly worked on knives. Seeing his set of knives, it would be strange if he didn't want to take them.

Yuuki hadn't expected to encounter Asahi Saiba here.

"A familiar surname? I remember Officer Yuuki is from Tōtsuki, right? You must know Jōichirō Saiba. I am Jōichirō Saiba's son." Asahi Saiba introduced himself.

Yuuki wasn't surprised at all that he called himself Jōichirō Saiba's son. This guy was solely focused on wanting to replace Soma Yukihira—

—Yuuki could only sigh; Jōichirō Yukihira's charm was very immense.

It was one thing for Erina Nakiri to regard him as an idol, but this Asahi Saiba was even more exaggerated, directly considering him his father.

"I know Jōichirō-senpai. But as far as I know, he seems to only have one son, right? He's my dorm mate at Polar Star."

Yuuki knew Asahi's meaning and also understood Asahi. But now, he naturally had to feign ignorance.

"It's Soma Yukihira, right? I quite envy him..." Asahi Saiba didn't explain much but said Soma's name.

He now had his own faction among the Midnight Chefs.

"You're Asahi Saiba? That rising star who just recently emerged?" Sarge recognized Asahi.

After all, Asahi had already made a name for himself among Midnight Chefs.

"Looks like I'm somewhat famous. Originally, my target this time was Ms. Sarge. But now, Officer Yuuki has beaten me to it. In that case, Officer Yuuki, would you like to have a match with me?" Asahi Saiba directly stated his purpose.

He had originally come for Sarge.

But now Sarge had already been subdued by Yuuki.

In that case, he could only change his target to Yuuki.

He didn't expect to make Yuuki his subordinate.

His real target was Yuuki's knives. But to get Yuuki's knives, he could only find a way to compete with Yuuki and make Yuuki use the knives as a wager.
