Chapter 940: Ga La Ha De

The next day.

Dorothy got up early as usual according to the habit of cultivation, and after finishing washing, she came to the imperial kitchen of the Long Wang Palace.

Well, after all, she had received the reward from Long Wang-sama before and had the right to dispose of those precious ingredients in the treasury. This naturally couldn't just take the benefits and not work.

Let's not talk about the future for now; at least during the few days she lived in the Long Wang Palace, the Home Witch felt that she should show something.

So she decided to come to the imperial kitchen to see the situation first.

However, when she arrived at the imperial kitchen, she found that the imperial chefs here had started to get busy early. Smoke was rising in the kitchen, and the aroma could be smelled from far away.

Clearly, the imperial chefs had already started working to prepare breakfast for the palace.

You know it was only a little past six in the morning at this time. Dorothy thought she got up early, but looking at the battle formation of the imperial kitchen, she estimated that the imperial chefs might have started working at two or three in the morning. Compared with them, the Home Witch seemed very lazy.

"Tsk, they all say that working in the palace has good treatment and high status, but now it seems that it's not easy either."

Looking at the busy appearance of the imperial kitchen, Dorothy sighed in her heart.

The scale of this imperial kitchen is very large. Looking at it, there are about hundreds of official imperial chefs busy on the stove. If you count the helpers or some maids who help, then this imperial kitchen has a configuration of nearly a thousand people.

And judging from the mana aura on these witches, there are no mediocre people here. Even the serving maids are at least elite witches, and the vegetable-cutting helpers are all Great Witches. As for the official imperial chefs who can master the stove, let alone, their auras are stronger than the other, and the leading few witches who look like head chefs are even peak-level.

One can only say that it is worthy of being the Long Wang Palace. There are really hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this palace. Great Witches are not as good as dogs, and peak-level ones are everywhere. Just the configuration of this imperial kitchen can form a quite powerful battle group if placed outside.

However, considering that Long Wang-sama loves food, the imperial kitchen of the Long Wang Palace is the hall representing the highest culinary level of the Witch World before the Witch of the Forest debuted, so this configuration is not exaggerated.

After all, in this day and age, taking a civil service exam is like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge, let alone entering the palace for such a good thing.

You know that entering the palace means having the opportunity to see the Three Kings, which is an honor that no witch can refuse, and also the opportunity most likely to reach the sky in one step.

Therefore, whether it is the God Wang Gong, the Long Wang Palace, or the Demon Wang Gong, any position that has the opportunity to enter the palace will be snatched up. That opportunity is not something that ordinary witches can touch.

In this day and age, entering the palace requires status and family background. Even if it is just to become the most ordinary maid in the palace, it is an opportunity that noble girls from many small and medium-sized witch families fight for.

And important positions like the palace guards are almost held by those loyal families with long traditions, and it is generally not the turn of witches born in ordinary families, unless that civilian witch is truly heaven-defying in aptitude.

Although the status of the imperial kitchen of the Long Wang Palace is far less than that of the guards, it also belongs to the characteristic position of the Long Wang Palace and has a certain reputation, and it is also the position most likely to contact Long Wang-sama and receive the grace of the crown. Then the number of witches eyeing this place is naturally not small.

Don't look at this imperial kitchen having a scale of a thousand people, which seems like a lot, but the Witch World has a total population of fifty billion. Even excluding big shots and young people, the number of suitable job seekers is still terrifying.

Not to mention that the imperial kitchen doesn't recruit people every year. The positions here are basically one radish and one pit. Usually, it is only when the old people retire that there is an opportunity for newcomers. Then the competition pressure can be imagined.

Therefore, the witches who can finally win a position in this imperial kitchen in the hands of many competitors are all the best of the best, whose appearance, talent, and family background are all far ahead of ninety-nine percent of witches.

Well, although you have to compare appearance to apply for a chef, it sounds a bit absurd, but there is no way. Who told the opponents to be really too many? You say that if the professional level of both sides is the same, who will they choose in the end, the good-looking one or the bad-looking one?

The workplace is such a cruel place.

Dorothy didn't go in to disturb everyone, but stood at the door and watched for a while.

It has to be said that every imperial chef here is very professional and very serious. None of them are slacking off. Everyone is focused on the dishes they are making, not daring to relax at all. Every step they take has taken out twelve points of caution, for fear of a little mistake. After all, these dishes will appear on Long Wang-sama's dining table and be tasted by that supreme crown.

Even if Long Wang-sama is not the kind of tyrant who would take someone's head because of a meal, on the contrary, He is very benevolent and never overly blames everyone in the palace. But once a problem really occurs with a dish, the crown's magnanimity doesn't mean that others in the palace won't care about you.

The palace is indeed a good place that everyone wants to enter, and it is also a Shura field where everyone is in danger.

Countless people are eyeing the position under your butt. Any mistake may directly cause you to be pulled off the horse by latecomers.

Therefore, the imperial chefs are really serious, and the atmosphere in the entire imperial kitchen is also very tense, even to the point of being murderous.

But this also made the Home Witch shake her head involuntarily.

"Sigh, I said why the dishes I ate these two days always have a taste of work."

She thought helplessly in her heart.

She is not criticizing anything, and Dorothy doesn't feel that she has the qualification to criticize these imperial chefs. After all, she can also see that everyone has worked hard and has also tried their best to pursue the way of food. No one has the qualification to say that they are not good for such hard-working people.

Do not advise others to be kind without experiencing others' suffering.

Dorothy is lucky; she doesn't need to experience the involution and cruelty of this workplace. Her talent and talent make these troubles destined to be far away from her, and she also knows very well that not everyone has her talent, and is as lucky as her.

Therefore, if she were to say high and mighty that your cooking is really not good, it would really be a bit absurd like "Why don't you eat meat porridge."

That would be too arrogant.

However, Dorothy is also not the kind of person who would avoid talking about mistakes because of this.

Therefore, she is thinking about how to tactfully remind these imperial chefs that they have worked in the wrong direction.

In the Home Witch's view, everyone in this imperial kitchen has really gone a bit astray. They are just like those samurai witches on the Dong Ying Island, always pursuing the sword art itself too much, while ignoring the more important sword heart.

Sword art has sword heart, and cooking naturally has cooking heart.

A chef's mood when cooking will directly affect the taste of the dishes she finally makes.

So many imperial chefs in the imperial kitchen have almost perfect cooking skills. Many of them use the Witch's Kitchen series of spells, and their proficiency is very high, especially those few head chefs, whose proficiency is almost at the "entering the sage" level. The spellcasting is so perfect that even Dorothy, the Witch of the Forest herself, can't pick out any major flaws.

But true magic is the heart that believes.

But with this group of imperial chefs now being cautious and serious, how can they make the kind of dishes that can make people feel relaxed and happy after eating?

So, Dorothy said that the food in the imperial kitchen these days always has a taste of work.

But this kind of problem is not easy to solve. After all, this is not something that can be solved by her running out and shouting at everyone, "Relax, think about happy things."

The Home Witch thinks from the perspective of others. If she were also in the situation where any mistake could be replaced by colleagues who are eyeing her, then she wouldn't be optimistic and cheerful at all.

Sigh, it's hard to handle.

And just when Dorothy was worrying about how to solve this matter, someone came to her side.

"This young lady, is there anything about our cooking that makes you dissatisfied? I just saw you shaking your head."

A quite gentle voice asked like this.

This also made Dorothy, who was thinking, wake up.

Because she didn't want to be too conspicuous and disturb the work of the imperial kitchen, she was in a disguise state.

Now that she has learned the Heavenly Demon Dance, her disguise has become very simple. She no longer needs to use makeup or glasses to cover it up like in the past. She only needs to guide it a little through the Heavenly Demon Dance, and her image in others' eyes will change greatly.

The Face of God itself has the characteristic of all living beings. Anyone can see the appearance of their dream lover in the Face of God, and using the Heavenly Demon Dance to control the authority of this Face of All Living Beings, she can easily distinguish herself from the "famous" Big Miss in others' eyes.

At this time, although Dorothy didn't have makeup on her face and was still her original appearance, in others' eyes, she was just a relatively beautiful witch and wouldn't associate her with Big Miss.

Therefore, this witch who suddenly asked naturally didn't recognize her identity. Otherwise, with Big Miss's status in the Long Wang Palace recently, the entire imperial kitchen would have stopped their work at this time and come to pay respects to her.

After all, she is a distinguished guest designated by Long Wang-sama.

Dorothy also turned to look at this witch who asked.

Well, undoubtedly a beauty, although her figure is a bit petite, not reaching her waist, her height is even shorter than Alice's 1.2 meters, about 1.1 meters.

But, this is a strong person. Dorothy can't guess the other party's strength, but it's at least a high-ranking peak.

"Are you the head chef?"

The Home Witch asked like this.

Although she didn't know this beauty who looked like a child but had an inexplicably mature temperament and a big sister flavor, but now the entire imperial kitchen is busy, and this young lady who should be a halfling can still find her to talk, so idle, that status is definitely not ordinary.

Eight or nine out of ten is the supervisor of this imperial kitchen, that is, the so-called head chef.

And halflings, this kind of extraordinary race similar to dwarves and gnomes, are not strong in strength, but they are famous for their ingenuity and have a food culture.

Few witches will use halflings as an evolution template. After all, this really doesn't bring much combat power bonus, and sometimes it will have the opposite effect, weakening the witch's strength. But if you pursue culinary skills as a goal rather than combat power, then the halfling template is one of the best templates.

And for Dorothy's rhetorical question, this halfling witch nodded refreshingly and admitted her identity.

"Well, I am the head chef. You can call me Ga La Ha De."

She smiled and stretched out her hand to the Home Witch, and then introduced herself.

The Home Witch also politely squatted down, tried to keep her line of sight parallel to the other party, and then shook hands with her.

"Dorothy..."

She said her name.

Well, there was no need to hide it at this time. After all, she was not unfamiliar with the name Ga La Ha De. This was one of the original Round Table Knights.

She really didn't expect such a big shot to work in the imperial kitchen.

"Haha, who doesn't love food? I not only like to taste food, but also have some interest in making food."

Seeming to notice the Home Witch's confusion, this halfling "little" sister explained with a smile.

Dorothy also immediately felt that this Ga La Ha De-sama was a person who was easy to get along with. Her personality was very pure. Although she was a quite old witch, she was as pure as a child.

"However, it turns out that it was you, Big Miss, who came. Your disguise is really powerful. I didn't recognize you directly. Then I can understand why you shook your head. I have eaten the squid balls brought by A Si Te Luo Si at the banquet before. That is the most delicious food I have ever eaten in my life. In terms of cooking, we really can't enter your eyes."

Ga La Ha De said with some frustration.

Dorothy was a bit embarrassed by the other party's frankness.

"No, no, everyone's cooking is quite good, just..."

Facing the gaze of this little sister who looked like a child but had eyes as pure as a baby, the Home Witch didn't know how to explain for a while.

"It doesn't matter, just say it. In terms of cooking, Big Miss, you are a pioneer. We are actually very willing to accept your guidance."

Ga La Ha De saw Dorothy's hesitation and hurriedly encouraged her sincerely.

Dorothy observed again and again, confirming that the big shot in front of her was not the kind of person who would turn her face if she didn't agree, and then she opened her mouth with confidence.

"It's just, do you really like cooking? I mean, do you really enjoy the fun of cooking and feel that cooking is a relaxed and happy thing?"

And hearing her inquiry.

The pure knight's eyes also lit up. She looked at Dorothy with eyes that saw a confidant.

"Big Miss, do you want to taste my craft?"

She invited like this.

Witch cooking...

The cunning Long Wang started to cater to her preferences. It's too bad. Qian-bao will fall sooner or later. ===== CHAPTER 941 =====
