[Instant Noodle Master: As long as the Shokugeki theme is instant noodles, your instant noodles will definitely taste better than your opponent's]
Jaden silently looked at the sign-in reward, momentarily at a loss for words.
The progress of the Pickle template fusion that came with the sign-in reward felt very satisfying, but this sign-in reward...
If you said it was useless, this sign-in reward was actually useful.
After all, with Jaden's 'World's Best Chef' culinary skill-a skill like this might be a very obvious boost to his cooking.
At least he could win if he competed with others in making instant noodles!
But would anyone actually compete with him in instant noodles?
Jaden looked at the skill, then opened his inventory, where the reward he received from signing in yesterday morning was stored. After spending ten minutes thoroughly understanding its mechanism, he had immediately labeled it as 'trash.'
[Observation Haki Reward Card]
The introduction of this item was very simple-as long as you complete the task written on the card, you will gain the most basic level of Observation Haki!
Jaden was very happy when he first saw this.
After all, he now lived as if he were in the world of pirates, and it felt a bit strange for him not to have the Three Colors of Haki.
He didn't seek the ability to predict the future or hear what others were thinking, which are part of Observation Haki; just obtaining the most basic sensory ability of Observation Haki would be enough.
-If I get Observation Haki, won't I be able to pin Hanma Yujiro to the ground and beat him up!
Jaden thought this yesterday morning.
Then... the moment he saw the task, he tossed the card into the system inventory.
Because the task was-Without relying on the curse and without using any tricks, wait for someone to actively challenge you to a Shokugeki, and then openly win the Shokugeki! (Note: The stake value of the Shokugeki must not be less than 10 million)
Jaden sighed a little when he saw this task yesterday.
Oh well... what am I going to compete in!
Although he wasn't completely incapable of cooking in this life, he remembered how in his previous life, he couldn't even crack an egg without getting shells in the bowl, then spending forever picking them out with chopsticks, only to have other problems arise because the egg wasn't mixed properly, or turning the heat up too high when he turned on the stove, causing oil to splatter everywhere because he used too much.
By the time all those problems were solved... the eggs in the pan would be burnt black on the bottom with a few white patches on top...
Just thinking about it made his blood pressure rise!
So, even though the reward was Observation Haki, Jaden simply kept the card in reserve.
But now it seemed...
"If someone insists on challenging me to an instant noodle competition, will I be able to obtain Observation Haki..."
Jaden muttered this with an expressionless face.
However, despite his demeanor, he intended to find someone to try it out with.
He was looking for someone who was a little foolish, had a lot of money, dared to challenge him to a Shokugeki, and would hopefully take the bait easily!
Then he would compete with him in instant noodles!
Jaden thought this and then went to Erina's side.
Erina was reserved about Jaden wanting to challenge a student to a Shokugeki, but she didn't ask further-only saying that she absolutely would not be a judge.
Then she told Jaden to look through the roster.
Jaden carefully flipped through, and finally, his gaze stopped on a guy with red spiky hair who looked foolish at a glance.
"Yukihira Soma... foolish, easily provoked, willing to challenge me to a Shokugeki, would probably accept instant noodles as the theme, as for the money..."
"His dad is Joichiro, so 10 million is secure!"
Jaden looked around and ultimately couldn't find anyone who fit the criteria better than Yukihira Soma.
So, with this in mind, he planned to go find Yukihira Soma.
And then...
"Yukihira Soma, he went to the neighboring country with Joichiro-sensei yesterday to train his cooking skills."
Jaden was stunned when he heard Erina say this, and then he thought of the candidate he had selected on the roster-Ryo Kurokiba!
"Alice's subordinate went back with her when she returned to Northern Europe a while ago."
"Then what about Hayama Akira?"
"Hayama Akira is still here... but the psychological trauma you left him with during your last Shokugeki hasn't healed, so he is absolutely unlikely to challenge you to a Shokugeki."
"Then... Etsuya Eizan?"
"Eizan... because of his last Shokugeki with you, he will be working for you for the rest of his life. He is running all over the world right now, desperately earning money to increase his share, I believe."
Jaden looked at Erina, who was expressionlessly processing the documents in front of her, and then at Hisako, who was standing behind her handing her materials.
"Arato, this is the request of my lifetime..."
"If you are planning to challenge me to a Shokugeki, then allow me to decline. I apologize, Lord Yuki!"
Uh...
After being rejected by Hisako Arato, Jaden stared at Erina for a while, finally sighing.
"-Then I'll wait until Yukihira Soma gets back."
Jaden was a little helpless, but not overly so.
He had put the reward card in the inventory yesterday, so there was no harm in taking it out and putting it back today.
Just as Jaden had more or less given up, the door to Erina's office suddenly opened.
"Lady Erina..."
The person who came seemed to want to report to Erina, but after seeing Jaden was also there, he quickly greeted Jaden as well.
"Lord Yuki!"
After greeting them, he spoke directly.
"My two Lords... Shinomiya Unyo, the third son of the Shinomiya family, has arrived with people."
Jaden was surprised when he heard this.
Erina slowly narrowed her eyes.
"Although I long suspected that people from the Shinomiya family would try to target Kaguya, I didn't expect them to come knocking so openly."
Saying this, Erina put down the documents in her hands, crossed her arms, and rested her chin on them.
When her gaze fell upon the servant again, her intimidating presence immediately amplified.
"What is their purpose in coming?"
Even though she knew Shinomiya Unyo must be here for Shinomiya Kaguya, since he had come knocking openly, Erina still had to ask for his stated purpose.
This...
The servant hesitated, then finally spoke with a strange look.
"That Third Young Master of the Shinomiya family said he wanted to pay a visit, but he actually brought Chef Boutril, who is very famous in the West and known as the Chef of Harmony, and he also said..."
At this point, the servant's strange gaze fell on Jaden.
"He also said the stake for the Shokugeki would be 100 million just for fun, and the main goal is to snatch the title of World's Best Chef from Lord Yuki... He even said he would give Lord Yuki a handicap, and set the theme of the Shokugeki as-instant noodles."
