Chapter 265: Polaris Cabbage (Hundred Fortunes)
"Let me down~"
Alice was hung up, swinging in the air. A dizzy feeling lingered in her brain.
Damn it! Erina, you tsundere! Where did you learn the tortoise-shell rope-tie? Tying me up in such a shameful way!
Kenji was impressed. After being tied up in the kikkō shibari, Alice's figure was even more accentuated. It was truly a feast for the eyes. She really knows how to play...
Elysia reached out and poked her, making Alice blush with shame. Where are you poking?!
"What's the password?"
Erina ignored her and held Alice's phone. The dark history had to be deleted. That situation just now was too embarrassing.
"123456."
Alice blurted it out directly. A password of ultimate simplicity, so simple that one would suspect it was fake.
Photo album... delete!
Erina breathed a sigh of relief. If her other acquaintances had seen that, she would have suffered a complete social death.
After deleting the photo, Erina let Alice down.
"Here. There won't be a next time."
Alice smiled mysteriously and tucked her phone into the crevice of her cleavage.
The photo in the album may be deleted, but couldn't I have saved it somewhere else?
My foolish sister, you are still too naive. You don't know the evils of society.
When I see that little follower of Erina's, I'll show this picture to her.
You're not coming over here!
The Space Taipan was on the verge of tears. Another piece of its meat had been cut off. Why was he picking on it to fleece? No, I must move. There is no place for me here.
"So stingy."
Kenji held a mountain-sized piece of snake meat in one hand and complained about the Space Taipan's stinginess. It was just one piece of meat. It would grow back in a little while anyway.
After storing the snake meat, Kenji went to another star system. He had heard from Don Slime that there was a giant white turtle that moved around the universe. It was as massive as a galaxy and carried a vegetable garden on its shell, which was a fragment from the Final Land. The vegetable garden contained a God Ingredient of the same rank as the Streaming Light Mermaid.
The White Turtle was surrounded by a special Back Channel that, in addition to accelerating time, had the terrifying ability to devour life force. Even a creature with a Capture Level of tens of thousands would have its life energy sucked dry in an instant if it entered its range. Even using the Back Channel couldn't resist it. Besides absolute strength, one could only rely on the power of Food Luck.
"Found it."
Kenji's eyes lit up. He sensed the trace of the Back Channel and vanished directly.
His Food Luck formed a barrier, and the life force in his body was as calm as water, showing no signs of flowing outward.
"What a big cabbage."
The giant white turtle carried countless vegetables, but Kenji's gaze was drawn to the giant cabbage at the center. The other vegetables were just a backdrop, their presence completely suppressed.
The Polaris Cabbage, also known as Polaris Hundred Fortunes. As a God Ingredient from the Final Land, a single part of a leaf could easily buy a planet. The whole thing had the luster of both glazed porcelain and jade, like a work of art. The leaves were a translucent, verdant green, and you could see a galaxy-like brilliance flowing within them, changing every moment according to a mystical law.
"Ping!"
Kenji flicked his finger. A star shot out at extremely high speed. The leaves, thin as a cicada's wing, were indestructible. It only made a crisp sound, and a halo of light rippled out.
"Stellar Knocking—Star Stream Quake!"
POW!
The White Turtle moved within the Back Channel and appeared in reality. As it moved, it would destroy countless stars. As long as he used Knocking to seal the White Turtle's movements, its force field would be thrown into disarray. This was the method to capture the Polaris Cabbage.
RUMBLE—
With a force that could shake the stars, Kenji forcibly pulled the giant cabbage up. A single speck of light suddenly fell off and landed on the White Turtle's back. It was a seed. "A wildfire can't burn it all, it grows again when the spring wind blows." This seed would, in countless years, grow another Polaris Cabbage, just like a cycle of reincarnation.
Kenji opened a space and placed the Polaris Cabbage in it alone. The salad course was now this.
"No reaction at all?"
The Knocking was released. The White Turtle didn't even glance at him. Kenji was speechless. Was it really this carefree, or was it just a robot turtle?
Kenji returned to Earth. This cabbage was bigger than the planet itself; he couldn't take it all out at once. To correctly pick a leaf, one needed to use supersonic vibrations, and when the frequency matched that of the leaf, it could be easily plucked.
"Crunch, crunch..."
He took a bite. The ultimate in crisp sweetness and freshness bloomed on the tip of his tongue. Hundreds of distinct flavors blended together harmoniously. The clarity of highland snowmelt, the fragrance of tropical fruits, the mellowness of primeval mountain delicacies...
"Delicious..."
"It really is delicious. If I give a part of this to Hua to make her 'Ever-Green', I think she'll be very happy," Elysia nodded.
"Ahem, pickled cabbage, huh? That's not a bad idea," Kenji coughed lightly. Such a high-class ingredient... he hadn't even thought about pickling it. After all, they always ate it fresh. If the cabbage were pickled into sauerkraut, it would be great. Then they could have a deluxe iron pot stew. Add some blood sausage, various beast meats, and rice made from Paradise Rice... just thinking about it...
Hiss...
Kenji wiped his drool. With such a large cabbage, he had to try different ways of eating it.
The heart of the Polaris Cabbage was the most precious part, known as the Polaris Nectar. A single drop could rejuvenate a withered star, and its flavor would also be greatly enhanced.
"It's so magical. When you come to another world, you don't have to worry about that kind of exaggerated reaction." Alice's cheeks were a little flushed, but she hadn't lost her composure too much. Even though the taste far surpassed any ingredient she had ever eaten, no criminally seductive moans were produced.
"Yes. So, moving to another world was a very correct choice," Erina said in agreement. If she had eaten a bite of this in the Shokugeki world, the scene would have been too beautiful, too shameful to even imagine. She wanted to wash her brain and get rid of all the eye-searing images she had ever seen.
"My mother and the others still have things to do. They can't just come over directly. We'll talk about it later." The two sisters were young and had no responsibilities, so they could easily slip away.
"Kenji, do you have any recommendations for a place for us to live?" Alice asked.
"That's up to you. Even if you want to go and live on the moon, it's no problem," Kenji said casually with a shrug. "If you don't want to live on Earth, I can rub a planet together for you. We'll call it 'Transmigrator Star'."
Alice and Erina broke into a cold sweat. Rub a planet together... do you have to say it so casually?
"No need. We'll just live near you," Alice shook her head. Two people living on an entire planet was too extravagant, and it would be very boring.
"Mm, got it." Kenji dialed a number.
[Is that you, Kenji? A rare guest! What can I do for you?]
On the other end of the line was Smile. He was now the most famous gourmet architect, so popular that his booking schedule was filled for who knows how many years.
"I need a house built near my place. You and I are quite familiar, Smile, so I came to you."
[A small matter! I have something to do right now, but I'll come find you tomorrow.]
Smile knew the ways of the world, and who to prioritize.
