In the reception room, seats are arranged according to priority.
After serving tea and snacks, Xiaolan and Kagome left the living room, leaving the space to Lin Yu and Nakiri Senzaemon.
The coffee table was filled with the finest snacks and fruits from all over the world, but neither of them had the appetite to taste them.
Holding the fragrant tea given by Suzuki Shiro, whose name he didn't know, and taking a sip, Lin Yu, the host, spoke first:
"General Nakiri, I wonder what brings you to my humble abode."
Holding the cup lid, Nakiri Senzaemon had no intention of tasting the tea.
His face showed hesitation, entanglement, struggle... and other emotions that were not in line with his sophistication.
Lin Yu did not disturb his meditation, sipping the fragrant tea sip by sip, as steady as an old dog.
"Why!"
After a long time, Nakiri Senzaemon gritted his teeth, as if he had made some kind of decision.
After the sigh, all the pessimism disappeared, replaced by determination and decisiveness.
Reincarnating himself into the "food devil" who could almost scare his students to death, Nakiri Senzaemon put all his chips on the line, just to plan a bright future for his granddaughter and the Nakiri family.
"Mr. Lin Yu, I wonder if you have heard of the Nakiri Group and the Totsuki Saryo Culinary School."
"Yes, I know. It's the most famous culinary school in Tokyo."
Nodding, Lin Yu did not deny, nor did he hide his desire to conceive his granddaughter, Erina Nakiri.
"If you hadn't come, I was planning to visit your academy later to recruit some excellent chefs, including your granddaughter, Erina Nakiri."
"oh!"
Hearing this, Nakiri Senzaemon's eyes lit up.
This result is much better than the best result he expected.
Originally, seeing that Lin Yu was surrounded by three cute and lovely girls, Suzuki Sonoko, Mouri Ran, and Higurashi Kagome, Nakiri Senzaemon thought that his granddaughter might need to compete with them for a position in the future.
But now it seems that perhaps his granddaughter can rise to the top with her abilities, without having to rely on her body.
Sacrificing one's looks to gain a position and relying on one's strength to occupy a position will lead to completely different results.
Without asking Lin Yu why he needed to recruit an excellent chef, Nakiri Senzaemon immediately threw out a bait that he originally thought was useless.
"Mr. Lin Yu likes little Erina, it's her blessing."
The wily old man, Senzaemon Nakiri, belittled the value of his granddaughter in order to elevate Lin Yu's status.
Lin Yu was unmoved.
Lin Yu has a clear understanding of himself. The reason why he is where he is today is not because of how outstanding he is, but because of his good luck when he traveled through time.
But he also won't deny devaluing himself.
Winning at the starting line is also your own ability.
Someone once said that the biggest watershed in life is actually amniotic fluid.
In his previous life, he was not as lucky as others and his reincarnation was not as good as others.
In this life, luck has come and it is your turn to win at the starting line.
Same to you, very fair.
Seeing that Lin Yu was not surprised by praise or criticism, Nakiri Senzaemon's admiration for him increased a little more.
He no longer concealed it and immediately told the biggest secret of his visit here today.
"I wonder if Mr. Lin Yu knows about the Tongue of God."
"oh!"
Hearing this, Lin Yu instantly became alert.
"Could it be that the Tongue of God still has some secrets that I don't know?"
On second thought, it seems quite normal.
"Since multiple worlds have merged, it is not surprising that the Tongue of God has undergone changes."
"I just don't know what kind of secret would make Nakiri Senzaemon be so secretive."
Seeing Lin Yu sitting upright and straightening his posture, Nakiri Senzaemon's eyes flashed, and he slowly told the biggest secret of the Nakiri family.
Every owner of the Divine Tongue is born with the ability to use special telepathic powers.
Unlike Lin Yu's acquired abilities, they were born with the same telepathic ability.
Psychic ability: God's cooking technique
Features: The owner of the Divine Tongue has an innate awakened telekinetic ability.
Through special cooking methods, a portion of the telekinetic energy in the food is converted into telekinetic energy that can be absorbed by the diners without any side effects, slightly enhancing the diners' energy.
"I see. A man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure."
The ability of the Divine Tongue is nothing to Lin Yu.
But for ordinary people in this world, this is simply a cheating device, one that has no side effects and can be used at will.
The battle between Nen users is very similar to that of Naruto.
In the early stages, various operations are required, which test the intelligence gathering ability and emphasize the coordination of combat experience and skills.
But in the later period, all turned into powerful brick throwing.
Netero, the strongest man in the world, uses his telekinesis and combat experience in a fancy way, but when facing the Ant King Meruem, he is still crushed by the opponent's hard power.
No matter which world it is, in the late stage it will eventually turn into a crushing of absolute strength.
After all, a person's potential is limited.
No matter how much training an ordinary person does, even after decades, they will never be able to catch up with those monsters.
But with the help of the Tongue of God, it can be said that everyone will have the potential of the Ant King Meruem.
If such an ability were known to the outside world, even the Hunter Association or even V5 would probably try to snatch it at all costs.
By then, what awaits the Tongue of God may not just be turning into a cooking machine, it will definitely be turned into a breeding machine.
The divine tongue of the Nakiri family is inherited by females.
In order to obtain more Divine Tongues, Lin Yu couldn't imagine what tragic end Erina Nakiri and her mother Managi Nakiri would encounter.
Tapping his fingers on the table, Lin Yu instantly understood what Nakiri Senzaemon was here for.
"So, for the sake of his granddaughter's future and safety, Mr. Nakiri Senzaemon came to me."
Lin Yu had no objection to protecting Erina Nakiri and the Nakiri family.
Not to mention that he had long valued Erina Nakiri's abilities, the fact that she was the heroine of "Food Wars! Soma" alone was enough to make him take action.
But knowing the purpose of Nakiri Senzaemon's visit, Lin Yu is now more concerned about another thing.
"Well, Commander Nakiri, I have a question. Could you explain it to me?"
Playing with the exquisite teacup in his hand, Lin Yu looked at Nakiri Senzaemon with a serious look.
He spoke each word clearly, his voice not loud, but it was like thunder, making Nakiri Senzaemon's heart beat wildly.
"I don't know where Commander Nakiri got the news about me, and how he confirmed that I have the ability to protect Erina Nakiri and the Nakiri family. I wonder if you can give me an explanation."
