A gentle breeze.
Began to appear around Nagiri Mana.
Initially, it was calm and light, only enough to stir the strands of hair on her forehead.
But as time passed, this gentle breeze grew stronger and stronger, until it finally transformed into a series of raging gales!
The roaring sound was particularly shocking, like an enraged lion, constantly roaring.
And each gust of wind ruthlessly crashed into everything around Nagiri Mana, even the windows rattled continuously with "cracking" sounds.
The entire Izakaya was instantly filled with flying sand, stones, and dust everywhere.
Fortunately, this strong wind came quickly and disappeared just as fast.
Only when everything had settled did Annie, standing nearby, stare with eyes almost popping out of her head due to the sudden phenomenon.
...
Just like the General's clothes tearing open.
Nagiri Mana, when tasting delicious food, will also forcibly activate a skill:
Transmission Pulse!
The so-called Transmission Pulse seems to release one's mental power into the air, creating a very powerful shockwave.
Even unrelated people nearby will be affected by this mysterious power.
In other words.
To determine whether a dish made by a chef is delicious?
Nagiri Mana, Erina, Senzaemon Nakiri, Nekiri Sōei, and others with Nakiri bloodline are all qualified to review and judge.
Especially Nagiri Mana in front of her.
If she can activate this phenomenon of Transmission Pulse skill.
That further indicates that the dishes made by that chef are absolutely at an unmatched level in the entire culinary world today.
It is precisely because of this that the WGO Gourmet Organization, represented by her, has become the most authoritative review body in the entire culinary world!
Of course.
It is not easy to conquer Nagiri Mana.
Over the years, countless chefs have come forward, creating countless rare and delicious dishes.
But in front of the powerful God Tongue, these chefs and their dishes ultimately ended in "failure."
Although psychologically, Annie believed that the dish made by Sosuke could satisfy Nagiri Mana.
But what she never expected was that Nagiri Mana could directly activate the Transmission Pulse skill just by tasting a plate of fried rice with vegetables, and only taking two bites!
This means that Sosuke's dish successfully conquered Nagiri Mana, and also successfully conquered the God Tongue.
...
"Delicious."
"It's really too delicious!"
"This vegetable fried rice dish uses ordinary ingredients."
"But it possesses a particularly mysterious power, constantly impacting my God Tongue, making me… making me… ah… I can't take it anymore…"
"I completely can't hold back, I want to eat more, eat more!"
Swallowing, Nagiri Mana, who had activated Transmission Pulse, finally couldn't hide her inner excitement and ecstasy, and slowly shed tears of happiness.
Her eyes were always fixed on that plate of Comet Fried Rice, and after savoring the taste from just now, faint "heart" shapes appeared in her pupils.
Obviously, the appearance of these heart-shaped pupils already indicated that she had completely fallen.
She continued to hold the spoon, then frantically took spoon after spoon, bite after bite, devouring it.
This disheveled and wild eating manner made Annie even more dumbfounded.
And this scene, if seen by the other executives of the entire WGO, they would probably also be greatly surprised.
Who would have thought that the person who was always the most picky about food would, in the end, devour a plate of vegetable fried rice like a dog that had been hungry for days and nights!
...
Delicious!
This is an extremely mystical word.
For thousands of years, all humans have found it difficult to give a standard and definition.
After all, in the eyes of 1000 people, there are 1000 Hamlets, so "delicious" is a personal, emotional perception that cannot be quantified at all.
The fact seems to be true, for example, when asked "Which dish is the most unforgettable for you?"
Perhaps Rindo, as a foodie, would answer: It must be grilled skewers, smoked beef, Mille-feuille, super-sized takoyaki...
But in her memory, the dish Nagiri Mana considered most unforgettable.
It must have been a small side dish in her Wednesday lunch when she was in kindergarten, which she liked the most at that time.
However, unfortunately, with the appearance of the God Tongue curse.
She could no longer experience the feeling of eating wildly because she loved food, as she did in her childhood!
Yes!
How many years has it been?
She has been suffering from the torment of the God Tongue, and her mind and body are almost at the point of collapse.
That feeling of instantly feeling nauseous and vomiting just by touching food with her mouth has painfully accompanied her throughout her life.
Compared to others, her wish might not be very complicated.
Just wanting to enjoy a meal happily like an ordinary person would be enough to let her die without regrets!
But this world, after all, is still too cruel.
Now, she can only barely maintain her life by relying on nutrient solution injections every day.
And her personal destiny, in the end, can only be to continue to detest all food in the world, accompanied by anorexia, anxiety, depression, and so on.
Finally, she would slowly die in hunger, in despair, in unwillingness, and in pain.
...
Before her.
This Comet Fried Rice.
It was like a bright lamp, giving her a new hope in her dark life.
Telling her that the road ahead was still smooth, and she just needed to walk boldly forward.
That combination of spinach, qingjiang vegetable, and rice, that unprecedented taste, that never-before-experienced taste sensation, was indeed like the spring sunshine, making her feel particularly warm!
It might be an illusion, but it might also not be an illusion, but something that is truly happening.
Her physical condition rapidly improved after tasting this Comet Fried Rice.
That spirited state made her look at least ten years younger, transforming from a frail young woman into a very energetic young girl!
Finally, when Mana came back to her senses.
She found that the entire plate of Comet Fried Rice had been eaten clean by her.
Even some leftover rice sticking to the plate was directly picked up by her, and she stuck out her tongue and frantically licked it clean.
...
"Burp~"
"That was so satisfying!"
"Thinking about it, I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time!"
Wiping her mouth, and then gently touching her slightly bulging belly, Nagiri Mana couldn't help but let out a satisfied burp, still wanting more.
She couldn't help but close her eyes again, wanting to savor the lingering taste brought by the Comet Fried Rice, and even more so, wanting to deeply engrave this feeling of fullness in her mind.
