The ingredients available on the market are generally below B-grade, with B-grade ingredients rarely appearing.
Firstly, these ingredients are rare in themselves, and secondly, ordinary people find it difficult to accept ingredients of this grade.
Only Nen users can withstand them!
Therefore, those who can eat food of this grade are either Nen users or people of extrely high status with proper protection.
It wasn't until the two finished eating and looked around that they realized several Sand Animals had gathered around them at so point. They must have been attracted by the aroma of the delicious food...
The sand tapir has an overall black skin, with a yellow stripe in the middle of its belly, and a pair of slightly large ears. Its head looks a bit like a rabbit, while its body resembles that of a wild boar.
Due to its cute appearance and ease of care, the sand tapir is also considered a common pet kept by people in the desert.
Looking at several sand tapirs with round bellies and adorable faces, the two exchanged glances and shared a knowing smile. They casually tossed so unused scraps for them to eat.
"Huff, huff..." Although sand tapirs look very cute, their eating sounds are like pigs feeding, sowhat unpleasant to hear.
So Akira had Gardevoir teleport the sand tapirs along with the scraps to a distant location.
A flash of intense pink light passed. The sand tapirs, not yet realizing they were no longer in their original spot, continued to eat the scraps intently.
After the al, nchi withdrew all the materialized items.
As if of one mind, the two didn't imdiately return to their respective tents like on previous nights. Lying on their own spread-out blankets, they gazed up at the starry sky as a post-dinner rest.
Although neither ntioned it, after successfully eating the white sand scorpion, both realized that the mont of parting was approaching.
Everyone has their own life, and separations are bound to happen.
They both understood this clearly. After all, they had only known each other for less than a week, so they wouldn't be too reluctant to part. But before leaving, they could chat a bit more and relax their minds.
That night, they talked about many things. nchi spoke about her childhood experiences with food and how she fell in love with it. nchi was born in a small village and grew up in the deep mountains. Due to the abundance of wild animals in the surrounding environnt, most villagers made a living by hunting.
nchi first learned hunting techniques from the people around her. nchi seed like a female version of Gon, equally curious about nature. However, nchi focused solely on ingredients and creating delicious food. From hunting ordinary beasts as a child to now cooking rare ingredients, nchi had only taken a little over ten years!
This shows her extrely strong talent in this field!
Akira talked about his hopes for the future - wanting to be a carefree traveler. To see more local customs and eat more delicious food! During his narration, Akira also ntioned the Dark Continent, clearly expressing his intention to explore it in the future.
In the firelight, Akira face was slightly visible in the darkness. His deep eyes seed to reveal a desire to explore the unknown. The speaker ant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart. nchi rembered Akira casual remark...
That night, the two seed to have endless topics to discuss, chatting until late into the night before finally going to sleep.
...
At the airport in the city.
"Well, I'll see you off here. I hope your culinary innovation is successful!" Akira bid farewell to nchi, who was about to board the airship, waving his hand.
After a night of thorough conversation, the two headed to the nearest city.
nchi was there to take an airship to her next ingredient destination. Akira didn't want to stay in the wilderness anymore and wanted to rest in a hotel
. nchi had her own path in the culinary world. Akira still needed to stay in the Samok Desert waiting for his progress bar to fill, so they ultimately faced their parting.
Gazing at Akira who was waving goodbye, nchi held her phone in her hand and said with a beaming smile.
"I'll co see you again next ti. I did promise to take you to Gourt Paradise, after all."
...
nchi sat in the cabin of the airship, looking out the window to see only a vast expanse of blue sky dotted with white clouds. In the end, she still hadn't ntioned the food partner matter to Akira.
She felt it would have been too abrupt to bring it up.
Let's talk about it when we get to the Gourt Paradise!
nchi recalled the impressions Akira had left on her over the past few days, and after a long while, she smiled brightly.
"Since you want to go to the Dark Continent... Then I must work even harder!"
