My Elf System - Chapter 226

Chapter 226: 226. Culinary Tournament 3:- Second Round.

However, on the other side of the arena, Lilith’s supporters continued to cheer for the succubus princess with a fervor, similar to what Orion’s supporters displayed.

“Yeah!! Princess Lilith made it to the second round,” A male demon shouted.

“This is just the beginning,” A second demon added.

“Princess Lilith is definitely going to crush them all,”

“You can do it, Your Highness!!!”

Lilith’s supporters continued to cheer her on but while this happened a few of the neutral supporters looked at the separate list that contained the names of the teams that didn’t make it to the next round.

Solar Hall Team 2:- Scar, Pumba and Mufasa.

Terra Hall Team 2:- Spencer, Carly and Freddie.

Lunar Hall Team 2;- Lydia, Jackson and Kira

Solar Hall Team 1:- Aladdin, Jafar and Iago

Since the four teams had been eliminated, their names had disappeared from the leaderboard and so they had to pack up their stations.

Seeing all these, a look of sadness appeared on a couple of students faces.

“It’s kind of sad to see them go ~nya,” A female student uttered out.

“Yeah, they worked really hard as well ~nya,” Another female added. Both were sitting close to each other and they were best friends as well.

Oh, they were also from the Neko tribe in the beast men kingdoms, and this meant that they had beautiful cat ears and tails.

Hearing what the two cute Neko girls were saying, a beautiful girl from the merfolk kingdom placed her comforting hands on the shoulders of the two cat horns, saying. “Yes, it is sad to see this but that’s the nature of what a competition should be. Some will win and others will lose, the main point is to learn and grow from these losses,”

The two cat girls nodded in understanding before drifting their faces back to the cooking arena because the second round was about to begin.

Daisy stood up from her seat to address the semifinalists. “Congratulations contestants, for making it to the second round. Your theme for this round will be Global Fusion:- A Blend Of Different Cultures,”

Hearing this, the crowds murmured with excitement and the magical screens updated to display the new challenge.

Teams were required to combine ingredients and techniques from two distinct cultures into an harmonious dish before presenting it to thee judges and many couldn’t wait to see what the four teams would present.

Meanwhile, Mia’s ears perked up the moment she understood what the judges expected them to make, and so she leaned over her table to look at the ingredients they had with them. “Hmm, we still have a few elven spices over here, so what do you think we should make?” She asked and Dahlia replied.

“I think we can try blending elven cuisine with that of the beastmen dishes. Would that be enough to impress the judges?” Dahlia asked Orion and he replied with a nod.

“Yes, it could work. The spices from the beastmen Kingdom are strong, but the vegetables we have with us, should be able to provide the right balance we need to balance them,”

“Alright, team. Let’s start cooking,”

With their minds made up on what they wanted to do, their opponents had also decided on what to make as well.

The contestants in the arena sprung into action as the teams dove into their preparations. Orion, Mia and Dahlia began their preparations as well and were moving in synchrony.

“Dahlia, I’ll need you to chop those vegetables finely,” Orion instructed with a calm voice before turning towards Mia.”Mia, you can start preparing the slice mix,”

“On it,” Mia replied cheerfully and her silver tails flickered excitedly behind her as she measured out the vibrant beastmen spices.

Dahlia nodded as well and her steady hands carefully sliced the elven vegetables into delicate ribbons.

A few minutes later, Orion tossed their thinly shaped ingredients into the wok and the aroma of their ingredients swiftly began to fill the air.

Meanwhile, Lilith’s team worked with an intense focus in their movement. The succubus princess directed her attendants with precision but her eyes subtly glanced towards Orion’s directions from time to time.

Of course, Orion’s ever vigilant girlfriend noticed a certain succubus princess, checking out her boyfriend.

“Oh my, it seems the demon princess is checking you out,” Mia teased and Orion smiled while stirring the pot of sauce in front of him. “Who cares if she’s checking me out,”

“Are you sure about? She’s pretty, you know. Maybe she’s trying to see just how good a handsome prince can cook,”

Orion smirked but he didn’t look at Mia, instead, he continued to stir the sauce in front of him. “I doubt she has that in mind, Mia. She’s probably glancing towards this direction because she sees us as a threat to her chance of winning the contest,”

“I guess, you’re right,”

“Yes, now focus on what you’re doing,”

“Aye aye, babe,” Mia saluted before Orion but he didn’t miss the sight of his girlfriend’s boobs jiggling while she saluted towards him.

With a smirk on his face, Orion rolled his eyes before refocusing his mind back on what he was doing.

Time passed by in a flash but now the aroma of Orion’s team’s dish began to permeate the air.

It drew the attention of the crowd and even Lilith’s supporters who were initially supporting her a few minutes ago, couldn’t help but turn towards Orion’s directions.

Initially they had been singing and cheering for Lilith but the moment the scent of Orion’s cooking reached their nostrils, their cheering grew quiet instantly and now, everyone cocked their heads to Orion at the same time, like a horror movie.

They took in the air of the aroma and a satisfied sigh escaped their lips. “Ahh,”

“That smells amazing,” A male demon murmured.

“Yes, but I never thought a prince could know how to cook so well,”

“Yeah, you’re right about that because I felt the same way as well,”

“Maybe Prince Orion was actually a lot better than we thought he would be,”
