Chapter 1292

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Too cruel, '2253'!"

Of course, especially Tien Qie Hui Li.

You clearly know the food is so delicious, why still livestream it and make us watch helplessly as the President and others eat?

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "Regardless...

From any angle, this is way too unfair!"

Bai Hu Zi: "Indeed, watching you all eat so enjoyably...

Even this old man feels a bit pained... no wonder the Black Cat is so heartbroken.

Gula-lala!"

Hou Jue: "... Boring!"

Marquis Wo Ban claims he is a cold and aloof person, no matter how delicious the food may be.

But if he can't eat it, he won't lower his proud head.

Yes! That's exactly it.

He is Old Wo Ban, a solitary, proud wolf king.

His pride is innate.

Tien Qie Hui Li: "Everyone! Don't be too sorrowful.

This is only the first World Gourmet Conference! There will surely be a second one."

Tien Qie Hui Li: "When that time comes, let's all go to our world together and taste the food."

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Clan: "!!!"

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Clan: "... There can be such a move?"

Jianghu Chuan Ke Nan: "Having such a move is normal... After all, it was clearly stated from the start that this was the first World Gourmet Conference.

Moreover, without Guild members' participation, the authority of this World Gourmet Competition would be questioned, wouldn't it?"

"Indeed! Yet we have tasted delicious food.

The status of chefs in the Food Battle Spirit world has also risen! This should count as a win for everyone."

Ghost Thief Kid: "I'm a bit concerned! If they really hold a Gourmet Conference there, and Guild members keep showing up to support it..."

Ghost Thief Kid: "Then in the end, won't the status of chefs in the Food Battle Spirit world be distortedly inflated?"

Tien Qie Hui Li: "... Probably not. I discussed this with my grandfather, and our conclusion was that chefs' status will rise—but only to that extent, at most becoming the most popular profession."

Tien Qie Hui Li: "As for distorted inflation... you're not the ones who control culinary arts. You're people who wield immense power! In the end, you're just cooks... Even if their status rises, how far can it possibly go?"

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Clan: "..."

My Little Sister Isn't Cute: "..."

Levi: "..."

Miss Xia Shizi: "You're right—it makes perfect sense. I can't refute it."

Lelouch: "... Everyone, I've gained some understanding of the Yugong Society's functions. So... listening to your discussion, I suddenly had a question."

As a sage, after joining the Guild, Lelouch naturally absorbed all the Guild's intelligence and functions.

One could say that, compared to other late-joining Guild members,

his understanding of the Guild—including all its functions—is already on par with some of the Guild's veteran members.

Lelouch: "Since everyone has thought about it, why not let the President and others finish their mission first, return to the real world, then use the free-play mode to form teams and go over?"

Lelouch: "Since everyone wants to, why not let the president and the others finish their mission and return to the real world first, then switch to gameplay mode and go as a group?"

Kill Teacher: ""

Hachigen Taichi: "!!!"

Ainz Ooal Gown: "Damn... there can be such a move?"

Ze Tian Gang Ji: "Yeah... at first glance, this method is shocking—but after thinking carefully, it's highly feasible."

Jianghu Chuan Ke Nan: "Regrettably, the President and others have already returned, and the gourmet competition on the other side has already ended."

Conan Edogawa: "Unfortunately, the president and the others have already returned, and the food competition over there has already ended."

Wudao Dong Xiang: "..."

Sakata Gintoki: "Once, the most supreme banquet was placed before Gin-san! Gin-san didn't cherish it.

He could only drool helplessly, watching the livestream with regret and frustration—until the banquet ended, Gin-san only then learned the way to join the banquet!"

Sakata Gintoki: "At this moment, Gin-san has the urge to challenge the person who came up with this solution to a virtual battlefield—and beat them senseless.

What are you looking at? I'm talking to you! Lelouch."

Look what you're looking at—I'm talking to you! Lelouch."

Sun Wukong: "Yes! This should've been brought up earlier... now it's useless..."

Sun Wukong is also heartbroken; his tail, usually lively, hangs listlessly to the ground.

A chance to eat his fill—with countless gourmet dishes—slipped right through his fingers.

Sun Wukong feels his life has lost all meaning.

Sensing he had angered everyone, Lelouch's lips twitched, and he immediately spoke.

Lelouch: "I thought too shallowly! Everyone... I apologize, I'm leaving!"

Tien Qie Hui Li: "Alright, don't be angry. Wait a moment—I'll send some top-tier dishes into the Guild... just grab the red packets."

Ti Qie Hui Li: "Alright, everyone, don't be angry. Wait a moment—I'll send some top-tier dishes into the guild... just grab the red envelopes."

Make the World Feel Pain: "... Send some dishes made by Miss Tien Qie Hui Li herself?"

Tien Qie Hui Li: "Don't worry—it's still those... top-tier chefs who made them."

Ti Qie Hui Li: "Don't worry! They're still made by top chefs."

My sister is super unlikable: "What kind of divine move is this?"

Tachibana Huirina: "Don't forget one thing! Those... chefs haven't left yet; after this event ends, they'll still need to stay here for several more days to exchange culinary skills."

Tachibana Huirina: "This time, because of Grandpa's previous hosting, our reputation has greatly increased."

And now we're at the Engetsu Academy."

So taking a bit more food is."

"No problem at all!"

Aisi Desi: "...... There are many people in the guild, and a lot of dishes are being brought in — are you sure taking this much food won't cause problems?"

Tachibana Huirina: "...... If it really comes to that, I'll just tell the truth! Say that the President and the others want to eat."

"I'm sure those... top chefs, once they know this, will pour 100% of their energy into preparing the food."

"And they won't object to me taking so much food."

Miss Xia Shizi: "Yes... after all, the President and the others have a well-established image as gluttons."

Fourth Hokage: "...... That's just the Food Cells."

Miss Xia Shizi: "Right! But the people in the world of Food Wars don't know that! They only know you're all incredibly greedy eaters."

Luo Hao Sect Master: "......"

Tony Isn't the Richest: "......"

Su Xiao Xiao: "......"

Bai Hu Zi: "Is that so? Gularala! That's perfect then."

I Am a Hou Jue: "Then! I shall wait quietly."

Tony Isn't the Richest: "Didn't the old Hou Jue just look completely dismissive a moment ago?"

I Am a Hou Jue: "......"

Su Xiao Xiao: "I, Marquis Wo Ban, would rather jump from here —"

"Die right here —"

"Than eat a single bite of your food!"

Su Xiao Xiao: "Mmm, delicious."

Tony Isn't the Richest: "Mmm, delicious."

"

Luo Hao Sect Master: "Mmm, delicious."

"

I Am a Hou Jue: "Enough! I was only slightly curious — I don't care about those... foods."

Tony Isn't the Richest: "Old Hou Jue, we told you long ago — arrogant men aren't cute at all! Especially not old men like you."
