As soon as she returned to the shop, Jyuka changed into the black stockings and high heels, trying to make herself look more mature and more suited to Raven.
"My legs feel a little sore," Jyuka said after taking a few steps, clearly uncomfortable. It was definitely because she had walked for too long during the day.
"Lie down. I'll give you a massage," Raven immediately suggested when he saw her struggling.
"Raven-nii, you can do that too?" Jyuka looked excited. She eagerly lifted one of her beautiful black-stockinged legs and placed it in front of Raven.
Looking at her legs, Raven calmed his mind and placed his hands on her, beginning to use his max-level massage techniques.
He proceeded to massage not just her legs, but also her back and front, leaving Jyuka completely pliable. She felt as though her body and mind had been completely conquered.
"That felt so good..." When the massage ended, Jyuka felt an empty sense of longing, as if she couldn't get enough.
"Raven-nii, can I come to you every time from now on?" Jyuka asked him reluctantly, holding onto his arm.
"Of course, no problem." Raven pinched her delicate little face.
He knew exactly what Jyuka was thinking. This young girl was thoroughly smitten. She was just looking for an excuse, using the massage as a pretext, to engage in more intimate activities.
Well, now I've gotten close to both of Tendo's sisters. And Hiyori had already crossed the final line with him.
He wondered how Tendo would react if he ever found out. A regular person would probably have been hit by several Hyper Rider Kicks by now. Honestly, if Raven weren't so confident in his own strength, he wouldn't dare pay attention to both of Tendo's sisters.
While Raven and Jyuka's intimacy continued, on the other side, the cooking competition between the old butler and Ichiro Ikesu officially began.
The judge was ZECT's general supervisor, Riku Kagami.
As for Tendo, Kagami, and the others, they were currently fighting Worms on the road, completely preoccupied.
Just then, Tsurugi Kamishiro, on his delivery route, met up with them.
"That guy is actually doing delivery?" Because he entered the accelerated state, Kagami clearly saw Kamen Rider Sasword carrying several delivery boxes alone in the distance.
"More Worms, huh? No choice." Since he had plenty of time, Tsurugi unhurriedly placed his deliveries in a nearby area, then rushed forward to assist Tendo and Kagami.
"I will defeat every single Worm!"
Sasword and Gatack worked together, eliminating most of the Worms. But the Worms kept appearing endlessly.
However, at that moment, Hyper Kabuto suddenly appeared and activated Clock Up, instantly annihilating all the remaining Worms.
"What happened..." Tsurugi was bewildered by what had just occurred.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his head. Right in front of Kagami, he transformed directly into a Worm, a pure white Scorpion Worm!
"Isn't that..." Kagami vaguely remembered Tsurugi once saying that he needed to defeat the Scorpion Worm that killed his sister...
This meant that Tsurugi himself was the Worm that killed his sister!
No, that's not right. The real Tsurugi Kamishiro must be dead, and this is a Worm mimicking him!
But just then, Tsurugi's consciousness suppressed the Worm's form, and he reverted back to Sasword. The now-clear Tsurugi said to Kagami, "Looks like the Worms are dealt with. I'll be going now."
Saying this, he calmly picked up his delivery boxes and used Clock Up to leave the scene.
Meanwhile, Tendo, after defeating the Worms blocking his path, had rushed to the cooking competition venue. He arrived only to find that the old butler had lost to Ichiro Ikesu and had fainted from anger.
This was a serious blow to Tendo. After all, his own cooking skills were inherited directly from the old butler, learned through a cookbook written twenty years ago. Now, if the old butler, who had reached the pinnacle of cuisine, couldn't defeat this man, who could?
Back at the café, Kagami and the others also learned about the defeat.
"It seems only Raven might be able to defeat him," Hiyori said with deep conviction.
"But I ate Raven's Mapo Tofu last time, and it wasn't particularly better than anyone else's," Kagami replied honestly.
"That's not true at all," Hiyori muttered unconsciously. In her heart, at least when it came to cooking, Raven could not lose to anyone.
"Hiyori is right."
Just then, Raven walked in from the door.
"Raven?"
"When did you get back?" Kagami asked in surprise. Raven had said he was leaving Tokyo for a while, but hadn't specified when he'd return. Now he had suddenly shown up.
Hiyori also smiled when she saw Raven.
"I came back yesterday," Raven said calmly. After taking Jyuka out for a bit, he paid attention to what was happening here. He roughly understood the situation.
"I have a general idea of what's going on." Raven listened to the absurd plotline, sighing inwardly. Is this a tokusatsu show or a gourmet drama? Now we have the Dark Chef's Knife and the Light Chef's Knife. Do they think this is Cooking Master Boy?
However, with his Max-Level Learning Ability, his cooking skills were naturally already at the peak.
"I'll go face this guy," Raven said confidently.
He knew that Ichiro Ikesu was actually a Worm. It was just that this particular Worm had a unique way of thinking compared to others. It seemed to plan on conquering the world through cuisine. That was quite an interesting idea.
"Tendo, you look pretty shaken up." Raven noticed Tendo looking troubled. He figured Tendo was depressed after facing successive defeats in cooking.
Besides Tendo's low spirits, Kagami was similarly affected. He was currently grappling with the fact that Tsurugi had transformed into a Worm. After all, they had fought together for a long time. The thought that Tsurugi was a Worm made the truth unacceptable. His emotions were complicated, and he didn't know how to bring it up to the others.
