Since guests had arrived, Granny Aya took out all the various ingredients she had stored.
"If you don’t mind, let give this knife a little maintenance."
Seeing her kitchen knife, Yuuki couldn’t help but speak up. Though it looked fine to the naked eye, in the eyes of a master sharpener like him, it was in terrible condition.
It was normal. A chef’s knife needed to be maintained. It was clear that she had learned so basic maintenance thods, but compared to a professional sharpener, especially a master like him, it was a world of difference.
Even Setsuno’s knife needed to be sent to lk for maintenance after a period of use. Granny Aya’s knife had been used here for decades and was now covered in scars.
"Then I’ll leave it to you!"
Granny Aya was stunned for a mont, but then she suddenly rembered that Setsuno had said he was a master sharpener. Since Setsuno had said so—she naturally believed it.
She also knew very well that her own maintenance thods were quite poor. So, it was better to leave it to him.
"One mont. I’ll go find a whetstone."
With that, Yuuki vanished. He was so fast that only Setsuno could see how he left. The other two only saw him disappear into thin air.
"SO FAST!"
Seeing this, Granny Aya’s eyes went wide. She had originally thought that a young man like him, even if he was strong—couldn’t be that strong. And he was also juggling so many professions.
But the speed he had just displayed completely baffled her. It was so fast that she couldn’t see any trace of his movent. This showed that the power gap between them was huge—otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened.
After leaving, Yuuki returned after a short while. He now had a whetstone in his hand. This wasn’t the lk Stardust—he wouldn’t just carry that around with him everywhere.
This whetstone was one of the many he had in storage. He had just made an excuse to leave their line of sight to get it. It wouldn’t be good to just pull it out of thin air.
He didn’t want to expose his spatial ability just yet.
There were surely many suitable whetstones on this island, but he was too lazy to look.
....
After he returned with the whetstone, Granny Aya handed him her knife.
Taking it, Yuuki began to sharpen. Just like the two lks, his sharpening speed was terrifyingly fast, even faster than the second generation.
As he sharpened, the song of the blade and a bright light beca a continuous stream. The group was very surprised. Though Setsuno knew his sharpening ability was strong, she hadn’t expected him to be this strong.
His performance in this area was frightening.
"The lk Style of sharpening... you need to do it correctly to produce the song and the light. But now, every single ti is a success. It’s unbelievable. I thought only the two lks could do that!"
Setsuno couldn’t describe how monstrous Yuuki was. His proficiency as a Reviver was already on par with Yosaku’s. She didn’t even need Yosaku to tell her that—she knew it. After all, Yuuki had used Reviver techniques to research the fusion of Food Imrsion and Damage Knocking.
She never thought that his sharpening skills would also be so strong, so strong that even she was completely shocked.
"This is the lk Style of sharpening? So he’s the new generation lk?"
Granny Aya was completely isolated from the outside world. She only knew of the first-generation lk.
"No, he’s not the new generation. The current second-generation lk is the first generation’s adopted daughter. As for Yuuki, he just studied with her for a while."
Setsuno shook her head. After hearing her words, Granny Aya fell silent again.
She had already witnessed his strength as a Gourt Hunter and a sharpener. What about the other two? Chef and Reviver... they probably weren’t weak either.
"How old is he now??"
She couldn’t help but ask. She was curious. Was his current youthful appearance his actual age, or was he an old man using a special Knocking technique?
After all, she herself often used Knocking to restore her youthful state.
"He’s not even twenty yet."
However, Setsuno’s one sentence made Granny Aya fall silent again. Not even twenty, yet he had reached such a high level in these fields... she was speechless.
"Unbelievable. Are all the youngsters nowadays this scary?"
She muttered to herself. She was starting to wonder if the entire outside world had beco this unreal. Had it changed so drastically in the few decades she had been out of touch?
"Granny Aya, not everyone is as unreal as Chef Yuuki. At least, I’m not!"
Nono spoke up. She explained that his situation was a one-in-a-million case. The other young people couldn’t compare to him.
After all, whether it was her, Teppei, or the second-generation lk, they were all very strong in their respective fields, with exceptional talent. But in front of him, they were just diocrities.
So, Yuuki was a special case. You couldn’t use him to represent all young people.
"I see. A special case? I understand!"
Granny Aya nodded. After about ten minutes, Yuuki’s work was done. Maintenance and forging were completely different. Forging took a lot of ti, but maintenance didn’t need to be so troubleso.
But her knife had too many problems after decades of use, so it took him over ten minutes.
"It’s done. Granny Aya, take a look!"
After finishing, he handed the knife to her. The mont she took it, she felt that her knife was completely different. After all, she was also a powerful chef—she could feel it.
At this mont, the knife felt as if it had just been forged. You know, this knife had been with her for decades. She never thought it could be restored to such a state.
"Give your knives too. I’ll take this opportunity to maintain them. It’ll save you a trip to the second-generation lk later."
Yuuki said. Nono’s and Setsuno’s knives also needed maintenance, especially Setsuno’s.
Though her knife was a transformable knife, it didn’t an it didn’t need maintenance.
"In that case, thank you so much!"
Setsuno directly took out her knife—Takitsuba—and handed it to him. Seeing this, Nono also imdiately took out her own.
Their knives also hadn’t been maintained for a while. They had originally planned to send them to lk Mountain for maintenance. But now that Yuuki, who had sharpening skills that surpassed lk’s, was here—giving them to him was better, and also more convenient.
Sending them to lk Mountain for maintenance would take half a month to a month for a round trip.
Taking their knives, Yuuki inspected them and then began to sharpen them.
In the end, Setsuno’s knife took ten minutes, and Nono’s took less than one.
Setsuno’s knife didn’t have too many problems, but due to the quality of the whetstone and the very precious material used for her knife, the sharpening took so ti.
If he had used the lk Stardust, he would have been even faster. It was just that it wasn’t suitable to take it out here.
"As expected of you, Yuuki. In any field you dabble in, you reach a formidable height."
Looking at the knife in her hand, Setsuno said. A good knife was very important for a chef. Of the orders the second-generation lk received, so were for maintenance of damage as small as a thousandth of a milliter.
This was because the more advanced the chef, the more precise their knife needed to be. Otherwise, there would be big problems when preparing so special ingredients, and a high probability of failure.
"It’s all because everyone was eager to teach —Or else I wouldn’t have had anywhere to learn, would I?"
Yuuki said with a smile. He wasn’t wrong. Whether it was Knocking, cooking, or the techniques of a Reviver and a sharpener, everyone had taught him without reservation. Or his growth wouldn’t have been so fast.
He wouldn’t deny this and think that he had achieved everything on his own. He was very clear that he was a cheat-player. His achievents today, besides his own efforts, were mostly due to external forces.
"Let’s stop with the pleasantries. Since the knives are done, I should also get moving!"
After getting her knife, Setsuno was itching to get to work. After that, everyone threw themselves into cooking. During this ti, Granny Aya discovered sothing that left her completely shocked again.
That was that Yuuki’s culinary skills had also surpassed hers. This was the most terrifying part.
The shocks he had brought her were too many. She felt she was becoming a bit numb.
....
During the al, Yuuki also ntioned the purpose of his visit.
"What? You ca for that ingredient? No, that ingredient is sealed. It’s too dangerous to release..."
Before she could finish, Granny Aya saw Setsuno and didn’t know how to continue. If you wanted to talk about strength, the person in front of her was the most horrifying.
Aya had t Setsuno when she was young. It wasn’t until she was middle-aged that she had built a good relationship with her, and then they slowly beca friends.
But not long after becoming friends, Girim had chosen to leave. In the end, she had chosen to stay here and guard it.
Because she knew very well that he would definitely find his way here. Because Acacia’s Hidden nu was here.
Girim was truly tragic. To find Acacia’s Hidden nu, he had joined the Gourt Corp. But his own partner had been guarding it all along. If he hadn’t abandoned her, he wouldn’t have had to go through such a big circle.
The reason he was whitewashed in the end was probably because he was severely injured by Toriko. The power of his fists was not sothing to be taken lightly. In the end, Girim needed a cane to walk.
It was because of this that Ichiryu and the others hadn’t bothered him. Or else even if there was so relationship, they wouldn’t have let a guy like him continue to stay here.
....
"Don’t worry, Aya. That ingredient isn’t that scary. With this kid’s strength, he can totally handle it. And even if he can’t, aren’t I here?"
Setsuno said with a smile.
"In that case, I won’t stop you. But give so ti. The ingredient that powers the sealing device is the Corona Sunflower. It absorbs sunlight to provide energy to the seal."
"To undo the seal, you need to cut off the energy supply first. I don’t want to destroy those Corona Sunflowers, so give so ti to transplant them."
Granny Aya said. The living environnt of the Corona Sunflower was also very harsh, so its quantity was very rare.
But she knew how to nourish it. After all, it was one of her and Girim’s partner ingredients.
So she had long figured out the specific situation of the Corona Sunflower. Give her so ti, and in less than a day, she could move all of them.
"Then thank you so much, Granny Aya. By the way, can you give so Corona Sunflowers when you transplant them?"
Yuuki asked. Granny Aya didn’t refuse. After all, the number of Corona Sunflowers wasn’t small, and she could also nourish more. She knew very well that since he was here to collect ingredients, he certainly wouldn’t let the Corona Sunflower go.
She also didn’t see any problem with it. Though it was her and Girim’s partner ingredient, it didn’t an others couldn’t eat it.
For soone to like eating the Corona Sunflower was also a good thing for her.
"In that case, let’s start transplanting tomorrow. Before that, didn’t you co here for other ingredients, Yuuki? Go and capture them first. By the way, take Nono with you."
Setsuno said, entrusting Nono to Yuuki’s care. He didn’t refuse.
These two had been reunited after a long ti—let them have a good chat. Taking Nono with him wasn’t a problem. There was no danger for him here, so he could take her.
If it were the Gourt World, then he wouldn’t take anyone else with him. After all, the Gourt World was too dangerous. He could only guarantee his own safety.
