It was very fragrant.

Senzaemon Nakiri, theoretically, had already developed a slight immunity to the aroma of food. Normally, a common fragrance wouldn't be able to stir his appetite. But this simple home-style dish, as if under some spell, emitted an aroma that greatly stimulated Senzaemon Nakiri's appetite. On another tray, Renz lifted the lid of a clay pot. Immediately, a refreshing medicinal aroma mixed with a peculiar savoriness poured out.

Senzaemon Nakiri took a deep breath; as the scent entered his nostrils, his tongue involuntarily began to salivate. His appetite... was roused.

And this aroma...

"Such a pure medicinal scent," Senzaemon Nakiri couldn't help but say. And to use the food's aroma to stimulate appetite, what recipe did they use? Senzaemon Nakiri's soft exclamations did not affect Renz and Erina's pace in preparing the dishes.

Erina had always presented a strong image, but no matter how strong a woman is, she has her tender side. For Erina, one of her soft spots was her children. From childhood, Erina's parents had never given her the warmth of familial affection. When she was very young, Erina actually envied Alice for having loving parents. Although the Old Man served as a guardian and cared for Erina diligently, he was still not her parent.

Sometimes, Erina had desires she couldn't express. The Old Man never took her to amusement parks, nor did he coax Erina outside of cooking. In this upbringing environment, Erina, despite saying she wouldn't spoil her children, was more devoted than anyone else in her heart. She didn't want her children to experience the lack of parental love she did as a child.

Whenever she cooked for her children, Erina was full of vigor and wholly committed. Especially when preparing dishes for Mirai Nakiri. Erina had inadvertently hurt Mirai before, so her affection for Mirai was the deepest.

"What dish are you two making?" Senzaemon Nakiri's voice sounded in Erina's ear.

"It's a dish for Mirai," Erina's attention was fully concentrated on the cooking. Startled by the sudden question, she blurted it out.

"Mirai?" Senzaemon Nakiri was a little confused.

"It's a dish dedicated to a beautiful future," Renz explained with the fastest reaction speed of his life. He was just trying to make it work.

"That doesn't seem to have any connection, does it?" Senzaemon Nakiri was slightly taken aback. This was clearly a medicinal dish. How could medicinal cuisine relate to a beautiful future? It was too off-topic.

"Syrup," Erina asked from the side.

"Coming," Renz reached out and handed her the specially prepared, finely ground syrup liquid.

Erina also realized she had misspoken, but she knew how to break the deadlock. A mix of truth and falsehood, just express her feelings.

"This medicinal dish expresses the path I wish to pursue," Erina said deeply. "Living a peaceful life, having children, and then picking up cooking utensils to make the dishes I want for my children."

"Although I have nothing now, there will be a future, right?" Thinking of this, Erina smiled.

"Is that the explanation for 'future'?" Senzaemon Nakiri didn't delve deeper. The dish in front of him had already captured his attention, and he was eager to taste it. Renz, however, hadn't expected Erina to be able to smoothly navigate the conversation like that. However, when Renz heard Erina's words, a faint smile also curved on his lips.

On the table, dish after dish gradually took shape. Rock Sugar Hawthorn, Tremella, Lily, and Lotus Seed Soup, Crystal Glutinous Rice, Quail Broth, Steamed Egg with Gigeria Galli. These were not particularly difficult dishes; even beginners could learn them quickly. However, the dishes made by Renz and Erina still had their unique qualities. While broadly similar, there were many subtle modifications in the details.

They arranged them neatly on the plates. Their team dish was officially ready. Although Senzaemon Nakiri had wanted to taste it much earlier, he didn't rush to act first. Instead, he let the evaluation team members from the audience come over with their cameras to photograph it, capturing the overall presentation of the dishes.

Time passed by, minute by minute, and dishes from other tables slowly made their debut. Eishi Tsukasa and Momo Akanekubo made a "White Knight's Dessert Paradise" set meal. Alice and Ryo Kurokiba's group made a "Wild Seafood and Scientific Gastronomy" set meal.

Hearing that name, Renz was momentarily stunned. He knew Ryo Kurokiba specialized in seafood, and Alice researched scientific gastronomy, making dishes with scientific methods. But he hadn't expected them to combine in such a way.

Because each of them only knew how to make their own style of dishes, they simply finished their own dishes and put them together as a team dish. To symbolically represent a team dish, they named it "Wild Seafood and Scientific Gastronomy" to hide their awkwardness. Oh, you guys really did that. Truly typical of them.

"Excuse me, what is the name of your team's dish?" A lady in an OL outfit, wearing heavy, sophisticated makeup, asked in a charming tone. As Erina, the possessor of the God's Tongue, was in this group, these evaluation teams were either from major TV food programs or assessment groups for food competitions. A high-profile, popular figure like Erina naturally became the center of attention.

Renz and Erina were both caught off guard by the question. The person hadn't specified who she was asking. Both of them froze, thinking in their minds. The original name was "Mirai Nakiri's Growth Set Meal," but since both of them were bad at naming things, they usually resorted to very practical names. However, for this dish, using the original name was definitely not an option right now.

"A dish dedicated to 'the future'," Erina and Renz simultaneously thought of a good name. It was a dish made for Mirai Nakiri, and also a dish dedicated to that beautiful future. This name was perfectly fitting. However, neither Renz nor Erina had expected that the name they both thought of would coincide. As they spoke the answer, Renz and Erina exchanged glances, then both chuckled softly, and the atmosphere became cheerful with their shared laughter.

At this moment, Senzaemon Nakiri, holding the golden steamed egg from Erina's table, was still observing why this dish could emit such an appealing aroma. The corner of his eye noticed Erina, surrounded by the evaluation team, receiving interviews and questions. He showed a thoughtful expression.

Erina seemed to be smiling... That brat also seemed to be smiling along with Erina... Why were these two smiling and looking at each other? And their eyes were shining like fluorescent lights? Hmm? Hmph?!
