Chapter 338 - Chapter 338. A Chef with a Stand

The phrase "tears falling like rain" was indeed quite fitting for Miyauchi Hikari right now.

Before coming here, Miyauchi Hikage had reread this arc of the manga.

But seeing his older sister exhibiting symptoms almost identical to Nijimura Okuyasu in the manga, Miyauchi Hikage still could not help but touch his forehead.

Indeed, the image of his older sister in Miyauchi Hikage's heart was not much different from that "genius" Nijimura Okuyasu.

After learning the news that Shinomiya Kaguya had invited them to travel together for three days and three nights, Miyauchi Hikari had barely had a good night's sleep these past few days due to being overly excited. She was constantly thinking about what to do on this trip and even specifically made a checklist of things to accomplish.

According to her own words, this was an invitation from the Shinomiya family, symbolizing that their Miyauchi family had officially entered the upper class.

And then there was the world-famous Morioh Town black abalone. Just hearing the adjective "world," her inner vanity was about to burst off the charts.

With her spirit so hyperactive, this dinner should be able to properly condition Miyauchi Hikari's body.

Miyauchi Hikage actually knew his sister's condition, which was why he simply brought them here to eat from the very beginning.

In fact, after the other girls besides Miyauchi Hikari drank this glass of water, although they also felt it was the best mineral water they had ever tasted, they did not have much of a reaction other than feeling their eyes become more refreshed.

This was also the characteristic of Tonio's Stand ability.

For people in good health, these special dishes were simply delicious and had no other effects.

But as long as there was something wrong with the body, even just a minor ailment like a stiff neck or a mouth ulcer, Pearl Jam's ability would activate and manifest in an exceptionally exaggerated form.

Seeing Miyauchi Hikari crying there with a bewildered look on her face, the other girls who felt nothing also found Miyauchi Hikari a bit strange.

Although this water was indeed delicious, it was not so delicious as to make one shed tears, right?

At first, everyone thought this was just Miyauchi Hikari acting out her naturally exaggerated personality, until her tears flowed more and more, and she even looked completely abnormal, did everyone realize the problem.

"Eh... what is wrong with me," Miyauchi Hikari, whose tears simply could not be stopped, could not understand her current situation either.

"Hikari, are you okay?" Shiina Mahiru looked at her friend with some concern, feeling that the other party's state seemed a bit off.

But what was even more worrying was that, as the tears flowed out recklessly, even Miyauchi Hikari's eyeballs seemed to rapidly shrink and dry up due to losing too much moisture.

It even looked as if her eyeballs would fall right out of their sockets in the next moment.

"What is going on?" Shiina Mahiru, sitting next to Miyauchi Hikari, let out an exclamation.

And Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was further away, subconsciously stood up and wanted to use her Water Affinity power to heal Miyauchi Hikari.

But in the next moment, just as her power was released towards Miyauchi Hikari, she found that Miyauchi Hikari's dried-up eyeballs actually quickly became round and plump again, and even looked much more crystal clear than before.

And Miyauchi Hikari, whose tears suddenly stopped, touched her eyes with some surprise, seeming to feel an unprecedented comfort.

"So.. so refreshing," she touched her eyes like this, and then looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha who was preparing to treat her.

Previously, she always thought that Kasumigaoka Utaha was just a senior who had a pretty good relationship with Miyauchi Hikage, and did not know the other party's other identities.

It was only recently that she heard from Miyauchi Hikage and Shiina Mashiro that Kasumigaoka Utaha had recently obtained some supernatural power, but she did not know exactly what the other party's power was.

So looking at the water droplets swirling around Kasumigaoka Utaha's fingertips, Miyauchi Hikari froze for a moment, thinking it was the other party's help that made her recover, and quickly said thank you.

However, Kasumigaoka Utaha also waved her hand, and then retracted the water droplets in her hand, "It is not my power; I have not used it yet. I just wanted to check your current condition. You recovered on your own."

She stared at Miyauchi Hikari's eyes, wanting to figure out what exactly happened to them.

"Is that so?" Miyauchi Hikari rubbed her eyes and showed them to everyone. "Did you notice anything? I just feel that looking around seems much brighter, and my whole spirit feels a lot more relaxed."

"But what... what exactly is going on with me?"

Since Kasumigaoka Utaha did not see anything using her power, she could only sit back in her seat, and then looked at the water glass in front of her, "I can feel that this glass of water seems to contain some power that I cannot understand. It should be this power that caused those symptoms on Hikari-san just now."

"Could this also be some special power of Morioh Town... or is it the power of a Stand?" Kasumigaoka Utaha's gaze narrowed as she voiced her guess.

As the several girls present showed suspicious and surprised looks on their faces, their gazes then fell on Miyauchi Hikage again.

Because it was Miyauchi Hikage who brought them here.

With Miyauchi Hikage here, how could they possibly encounter any accidents in this place?

Hearing Kasumigaoka Utaha mention a Stand, Miyauchi Hikage chuckled lightly and looked towards the kitchen.

"I am not sure if it is a Stand. After all, I have not awakened the power of a Stand yet, but I can indeed see that the Italian chef possesses some kind of special power."

"Although Hikari's appearance looked quite scary just now, I indeed did not feel any malice from the other party. And judging by the result, Hikari, your current body has indeed become better than before. It seems that the special power of the other party must have been attached to that glass of mineral water just now."

Hearing this, Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes looking towards the kitchen suddenly changed.

Sure enough, she still had to follow Miyauchi Hikage.

This time, Shinomiya Kaguya and Yotsuya Miko, the two girls who had relatively more contact with Miyauchi Hikage before, did not follow along. According to Shinomiya Kaguya, Jujutsu High had given them some commissions here in Sendai, and they had to go over and greet the jujutsu sorcerers here in Sendai first.

However, their group, including Miyauchi Hikage, also had eight people, and the ones who possessed diaries were her and Katsura Kotonoha.

She wondered how many of these eight people would eventually awaken a Stand.

But the most important thing now was to learn from this supernatural chef, who had a high probability of being a Stand user, how he awakened his Stand, and see if there was any reference material to be gained from it.
