"Hey, Galahad, don't you use cooking magic? It turns out you are the manual type."
Dorothy selected suitable ingredients from the existing pile of ingredients next to the stove. While selecting, she secretly glanced at the movements of the petite knight next to her, and then asked with some confusion.
Galahad was holding a kitchen knife in his hand and was carefully processing a piece of dragon tail meat.
Well, this is really a good ingredient. Although the otaku witch didn't know what kind of dragon tail meat it was for a while, she could tell at a glance that it was definitely a rare and top-notch ingredient. Then
The texture and texture of the dragon meat were so beautiful that she couldn't help but sigh at how beautiful it was.
However, although the unknown dragon's tail meat was quite beautiful, what really attracted Dorothy was Galahad's superb knife skills displayed at this time.
Cut, chop, slice, slide...
The chef's knife flew up and down in her hand, as dexterously as a butterfly, and with her movements, the top tail meat was processed quickly and perfectly.
Well, what a beautiful knife work.
Dorothy appreciated this very much.
Knife skills are the basic skills of a chef. Although not all people with good knife skills are good chefs, a good chef's knife skills will never be bad.
However, judging from Galahad's beautiful knife skills, the witch knew that the halfling witch chef's cooking skills were absolutely excellent.
After all, the unknown dragon's tail is not an ingredient that only knife skills can handle perfectly.
That's dragon meat.
The dragon's strong body has amazing defensive power. Even after it is killed, it is not easy to dismember the body of the dragon. Ordinary swords cannot cut the dragon's flesh at all, and even ordinary magic weapons can't cut it.
It's a bit overwhelming.
Not to mention that the tail meat in Galahad's hand obviously did not come from an ordinary dragon, so it would definitely be more difficult to deal with.
Although the chef's knife in the halfling witch's hand is of high quality, it is not a magic weapon. It is a standard kitchen knife that was already placed next to the stove.
It is obviously not easy for such a kitchen knife to cut through high-grade dragon meat, but Miss Galahad's movements are very easy and smooth.
In addition to her own super strength and superb knife skills, it was mainly because she knew the structure of dragon meat very well.
Just like the story Dorothy heard about the butcher's dismemberment of a cow in her previous life, if you kill too many cows, and you know the cow's body structure and muscle texture well, then it will be very easy to dismember a cow. You only need to follow the between muscles.
Just cut the texture.
Of course, this kind of thing is quite simple in theory, but it is not easy to achieve this kind of proficiency, especially if the dragon is not a common livestock like cattle and sheep. If you want to do this with dragon meat,
Dorothy couldn't believe how many dragons this child-like Miss Galahad had dismembered in the past.
In short, her knowledge of the ingredients is evident.
Good knife skills and understanding of ingredients are more than half of the qualities of a good chef.
However, just as Dorothy asked, she was quite surprised that Galahad turned out to be a manual chef. In a magical world like the Witch World, there are not many chefs who are willing to cook by themselves.
The house witch looked at the other stoves in the royal kitchen around her and found that almost all the royal chefs were actually waving their wands to perform cooking magic, and then the ingredients and kitchen utensils started to move on their own.
Well, magic, this is a very convenient thing, it is much more flexible and easier to use than clumsy hands.
Dorothy thought so too, and she also felt that magic was much easier to use than hands.
After all, she is a lazy person, and the witch's series of spells were created just for laziness.
"No, I'm not a purely manual person. I usually use magic to cook, but occasionally when I do some particularly important cooking, I will do it myself. This way I feel that I can use my full strength.
Come on, of course, this is just my personal habit, Miss, you don’t have to mind."
Galahad finished handling the tail meat in his hands and then answered with a smile.
Only then did Dorothy understand.
Well, she understood. This halfling witch lady turned out to be a "soul party". Only food made by one's own hands has more soul.
The otaku witch is a pragmatist. She doesn't think it's more noble to use hands or magic. After all, whether it's magic or hands, it's all about form. What's ultimately important is the cooking heart that goes into the cooking.
However, since Galahad has said that she will only do it when there are some important dishes, so now that she does it herself, it means that the other party feels that this discussion is very important.
Well, since people respected her so much, Dorothy felt that she must reciprocate the same respect.
At that moment, she decided to do it manually for the first time in a long time.
It's just that she doesn't have as high-grade ingredients as the tail meat in Galahad's hands. Even with her current strength, she can't handle it. She may not be able to chop it off.
Therefore, Dorothy did not go out of her way to save face and suffer the consequences by choosing ingredients that were too high-grade.
After all, this time is just a competition. The exchange is about cooking skills, not comparing whose ingredients are superior. An ingredient that can be easily controlled and can perfectly show one's cooking skills is enough. Forcing high-level ingredients that cannot be controlled will be counterproductive.
Not very good.
Although the ingredients that appear in the imperial dining room are not low-grade.
"Are Galahad preparing to cook barbecue? Then I'll cook barbecue too."
The otaku witch has a bit of difficulty in choosing. She was originally struggling with what dish to eat, but after seeing the actions of the halfling witch, she decided so.
Well, it's easier to communicate with the same dishes.
So, she also selected a sea dragon's tail from the food storage nearby.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Judging from the magic power left on this tail, this Seadramon should have had a strength of about 60w Mana when it was alive. It is definitely powerful.
It's a big monster, and this level of strength is the limit that Dorothy can perfectly master with her current strength.
This was also thanks to the Dragon Flame given to him by the Dragon King. If this were the case in the past, if she did not borrow power from her senior sister, she would only be able to process ingredients with a magic power of about 300,000 to 400,000 Mana.
After selecting the ingredients, she did not directly take the standard kitchen knife on the stove.
Well, she doesn't have the strength of Galahad. She can use her strength to strengthen any knife to the point where she can slay a dragon, so she'd better not be a show of strength.
At that moment, she stamped her foot, and a long bloody knife rose up from her shadow.
This is the Demon Sword Red Shadow.
"Long time no see, Chiying, you have become stronger again."
Dorothy looked at her Demon Sword Girl whom she hadn't seen for a while and sighed with emotion.
During this period of time, Akei has been receiving compulsory literacy education from the New Era Witch on Youkai Mountain with the Hyakki Witch. After all, Japan Island has been disconnected from the outside world for too long.
Goodbye now. Judging from the sharp edge that can be felt before Chi Ying even takes off her sheath, she has really studied hard during this period.
"I am a sword, and the sword cannot drag down the sword's master's edge."
Facing the otaku witch's praise, Chiying said this, this child is still so cold.
"Then Lord Sword Master, where is the enemy..."
The cold Demon Sword Girl was summoned again after a long absence. She was ready to show off the sharpness she had honed during this period, but looking at the scene around her, a question mark still appeared on the hilt of her sword.
Well, if she read correctly, this is the kitchen, right?
Dorothy: ".........."
The otaku witch also scratched her head with some guilt. She didn't know how to explain to Akei for a moment that she was not an enemy, but just to cut vegetables.
But there is no other way. She has no other suitable knives in her hand. If she doesn't summon Akekage, she can only summon Ibuki Yugi's Amazong Yun.
But although Chiying was a bit cold-tempered, she was not stupid. After looking at the piece of dragon tail placed in front of her sword master, she realized her responsibility.
"...."
After a moment of silence, she urged.
"Sword Master, please draw your sword, I can do it."
She said very seriously.
"that....."
Dorothy was still thinking about whether to explain further.
But the handle of the two-meter-tall giant sword in front of her had already fallen into her hands.
"You are the sword master, and your will is the meaning of my existence. As long as it is what you want to kill, I will cut it off no matter what it is."
Taking the hilt of the knife into her hands, Chi Ying's voice also sounded in her heart.
In this state where the human and the sword merged into one, Dorothy could sense that her Demon Sword Girl was indeed not angry, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and then her eyes became serious.
Dragon's Breath, activate.
The scarlet sword light flashed away in an instant, and a red flower of the other side bloomed from the tail of the sea dragon beast on the chopping board.
The flower blooms and then withers, and the tail meat is scattered with it.
The food is processed.
"Thank you very much, Chiying, but don't rush back just yet. Bring some food before you leave."
Dorothy sheathed her sword and looked at Miss Demon Sword who wanted to retract her shadow, she quickly stopped her.
Chiying thought about it for a while, and then obediently transformed into a human form. She did not really watch from the sidelines, but very wisely stepped forward to help the otaku witch.
Well, sometimes I pass the ingredients, and sometimes I help wipe sweat and so on.
The otaku witch, on the other hand, has already concentrated on cooking.
She took out the golden pot that Astros had just taken from her not long ago, and then with a thought, the Ruyi golden pot turned into a golden barbecue grill.
Dorothy stretched out her right hand and opened her palm towards the stove. Then the Dragon King's mark on her arm lit up, and dark dragon flames spurted out from her hand.
Well, it’s full, and the equipment is really full.
The otaku witch glanced at Galahad, who was grilling meat as unpretentiously as a mortal next to her, and then looked at her full set of magical costumes. She always felt as if she had become a supporting character in the novel who was about to be slapped in the face.
"What are you thinking about? Start baking, start baking."
Dorothy reached out and patted her cheek, then concentrated on turning the barbecue grill with her hands.
Just like that, a quiet barbecue started on both sides.
However, the movements on their side gradually attracted other people in the imperial dining room.
Well, in fact, some people have noticed the situation between the two of them for a long time, but out of awe of the authority of Chef Galahad, everyone just took a sneak look and didn't dare to pay too much attention.
But now, it is difficult for them not to pay attention. After all, as the barbecue continues, the aroma of the barbecue that makes people salivate and whet their appetites has spread.
Obviously everyone in this royal dining room is a well-experienced royal chef, and they have eaten all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas. They have a strong resistance to delicious food, but at this moment, they seem to have just finished school and discovered that meat is being cooked at home.
Like a child, he can no longer control himself and wants to grab a piece from the pot to try it.
Well, the barbecue served by both the head chef and the unknown lady next to them is the most delicious they have ever seen in their lives. This is so appetizing.
Fortunately, no one with strong self-control can stay in this royal dining room for long. Although everyone's mouth was almost drooling, no one really dared to come forward and disturb these two people's cooking.
Finally, more than an hour later, Dorothy raised the grill in her hand and looked across.
"I'm done."
"Well, I just finished it."
Galahad on the opposite side also raised the grill in his hand.
The two of them just raised the grills in their hands toward each other, as if two swordsmen were raising their swords to each other.
Well, the golden and glossy barbecue on this "sword" is a bit too tempting.
"Hahaha...."
Both of them were amused by the other's actions and looked at each other with a smile.
"Okay, let's taste it in exchange."
Dorothy threw the grill in her hand towards the opposite side and said with a smile.
"Well, I can't wait any longer."
Galahad also threw the grill in his hand to the otaku witch and agreed.
However, after the two exchanged the barbecue, neither of them started to eat it directly.
After all, the dragon's tail meat is very large, and both the grill in Dorothy's hand and the grill in Galahad's hand are behemoths that are seven or eight meters long and three or four meters wide.
It's not easy to chew it directly, so cut it slightly, and such a large portion needs to be shared with others.
Dorothy thought so. She took out her knife, fork and plate, and just wanted to take a piece of the huge tail meat to taste, and then the rest could be served to the Dragon King as the main course later.
dining table.
However, Galahad on the opposite side stopped her.
"You can just chew on it. This whole piece of barbecue is just for you. My cooking is special, and the ingredients are even more special. You can only take effect if you eat them all. If you want to share it with others, just use your skills."
The halfling lady said so seriously.
Well, after all, it was a dish she specially made for her sister, and it was Nidhogg's tail meat. This was not something that everyone was qualified to eat. Normally, a witch would die violently if she took one bite of it.
No kidding, it literally exploded.
"Forehead......"
Dorothy was a little confused, but she still listened to Galahad's words.
Although this behavior of eating alone made her a little uncomfortable, since it was the way of eating specially instructed by the chef, she had no choice but to comply.
She thought so, and then took a bite.
And then...
A terrible feeling of hunger came over her, and the house witch was directly dominated by this terrifying appetite and began to bite into the barbecue in her hands.
And when she regained consciousness and woke up again, she looked at her round belly and fell into deep thought.
