Chapter 1023: Chapter 1022: Reactions
Clap!
At the IGO headquarters building in Denmark, ‘Scalpel’ Karl put down the office phone, his expression was strange, with a hint of anger, but more confusion and puzzlent, “…What does Lance’s call an?”
“Xia Yu and his party of four have boarded the plane?”
“They will soon arrive in Denmark?”
Karl’s low tone carried complexity.
He turned his head to the female secretary in a business suit standing silently at the office door with her hands crossed, and said, “Inform Amor and Bastian to co to the Miracle Garden for an ergency eting!”
The female secretary was stunned for a mont, then replied, “Amor Sage is in seclusion studying advanced new stove equipnt, and Bastian Sage is not in Denmark; he is inspecting the IGO spice farm on the diterranean coast. This year, there have been new research breakthroughs on dill, parsley, and lemon balm, and Bastian Sage took a large team there…”
Karl waved his hand to interrupt without turning back, “Just contact them and say that people from the Chinese Realm have co… to demand the ‘Greedy Wolf Pot’!”
The female secretary’s face changed dramatically, she bowed her head slightly, and her high heels clicked rapidly on the floor as she hurried away.
Amor Sage, the ‘Master of Fire’, promptly rushed over upon receiving the notice from the headquarters’ Culinary Technology Agency. As he walked through the core area of the headquarters, nad the ‘Miracle Garden’, a voice ca from afar through the dense and exotic plants, reaching the central pavilion, “Have people from the Chinese Realm really co? Who is the envoy?”
Karl sat on a chair, his fingers showing a slightly anxious expression as he tapped the table, frowning at the remark, “Amor, you’ve been following the incident at the xican Giga Owl’s estate, right?”
Amor was pulling out a chair when he froze, his eyes widening, “Could it be that Young Dragon Chef, the newly erged Kirin Child of the Chinese Realm?”
His face instantly beca uncertain.
“It shouldn’t be.” Amor forgot to sit down, frozen in place, his expression could be described as impressive.
It was rare to see a situation that could provoke intense reactions from the three sages of the IGO while leaving them wary and hesitant.
The ‘Greedy Wolf Pot’ itself, as a legendary cookware, was imnsely valuable.
The envoy from the Chinese Realm, also the newly famous Young Devil.
Amor softly inhaled and said, “That Young Dragon Chef just caused a huge commotion in xico—everyone knows he’s acquired the ‘Magic Saint Copper Artifact’. Yet, instead of returning ho imdiately, he’s flying straight to Denmark. Is he planning to seize all the legendary cookware in one fell swoop?”
As he spoke, a trace of anger appeared on his face, along with a bit of sarcasm, “What audacity!”
Karl didn’t engage in broad ‘sarcasm’, but sighed softly instead.
“Half an hour ago, Lance called my office directly to inform of the Young Dragon Chef’s itinerary and flight tis.”
“What?!”
Amor’s face turned very grim.
The call from the leader of the Gourt Association had a rather intriguing purpose.
…
“Hmph!”
On a luxurious island villa’s courtyard in the blue Aegean Sea, Gaius’ lips curled with a cold smile. He pressed the button to end the call, then rose from a reclining chair and walked to the white fence of the courtyard, standing with his hands behind his back, looking out at the vast ocean with vigilant eyes.
“Is Lance warning ?”
“Unable to demand the cookware from , he’s deliberately leaking information to the envoy from the Chinese Realm that the cookware is in my hands, forcing to face the pressure from the entire Chinese Realm? Ha, a food confrontation among Heavenly Kings—how many cases have there been in these decades since the war? Even if that old immortal Zhu Ji challenges with a culinary confrontation, I can completely ignore it. Knowing I can’t win, why not hide instead? Who would engage in a certain-to-lose culinary confrontation? Ridiculous!”
Among the current generation of Heavenly Kings, Zhu Ji is implicitly regarded as the chief.
The use of the word “implicitly” is because there’s no ranking battle among the Heavenly Kings.
In fact, let alone ranking battles, only a singular public culinary confrontation has occurred since the IGO institution was established, marking the advent of a new era on Earth with Food Dominator and Fantasy Ingredients invasions.
That’s right.
A culinary confrontation on the Heavenly King level has only happened once before!
Each Heavenly King is akin to a culinary nuclear bomb, primarily serving as a strategic deterrent. If Heavenly Kings participate in brutal culinary duels, comprehensive gourt warfare would ensue.
“Father!”
A woman with long brown hair and a stunning figure was summoned by Gaius.
“Doris, my daughter, I have sothing to entrust to you. It concerns our family’s interests.” Gaius’s expression was serious as he recounted the cookware incident in detail to the woman.
Compared to other Heavenly Kings, Gaius appeared “isolated and weak.”
He had few formidable specialists under his command.
Not even a single Dragon Chef.
His daughter, Doris, with her excellent appearance and Aegean-blue eyes, had culinary talents that the local populace along the diterranean coast described as the “embodint of the ocean goddess.” She possessed an innate affinity for all flavors of freshness, being able to judge the quality of seafood by scent and sound.
Doris was already in her early thirties and had a daughter, with elegant and noble grace, known far and wide in the diterranean Region as a prospective female Dragon Chef.
One reason Gaius didn’t want to lose the “Spiritual Treasure Vault” was due to his daughter. This legendary cookware’s handling of the ‘flavor of freshness’ was simply perfect. If it were passed on to his daughter Doris, the Gaius family could likely produce a second Heavenly King, and a female one at that.
However, on many culinary concepts, Doris differed greatly from her father.
“Father, since people from the Chinese Realm have co, why not return the legendary cookware to them?”
Her exquisite features showed determination, while her blue eyes revealed curiosity about the fad Young Dragon Chef. Doris said softly, “It’s him as the envoy, right? What if we send him away this ti? If we block the first attempt, we can’t block the second or the third. Since the news that the cookware is with our family has been leaked, we might be facing the entire Chinese Cuisine World!”
“Moreover, this Young Dragon Chef might soon be approaching the Heavenly King tier. Father, in a few years, you wouldn’t want to face him with a strong sense of threat… and be unable to predict the culinary confrontation’s outco, would you?”
“Enough!”
Gaius barked low.
He realized calling his daughter to handle this matter was absurd. He insisted on relying on “cookware” to strengthen his culinary arts, while his daughter Doris was of a naturalistic approach, advocating simplicity, returning to the essentials of ingredients, and sparking more and better freshness flavor through one’s own intentions.
With a wave, Gaius, his expression livid, said, “Leave, and pretend you know nothing of this matter!”
Doris lightly nodded, turned, and walked towards the mansion, where a roughly six or seven-year-old girl, a delicate little beauty, broke free from the maid’s hand and rushed into her mother’s arms, her small head nuzzling vigorously, quickly creating a patch of creases on the woman’s dress.
“Mom, mom, continue telling the Demon King’s story, especially the part during the sumr advanced exams—what happened next, what gourt dishes did the Demon King use to defeat many brave warriors?” The girl abruptly looked up from the embrace, her large eyes sparkling with curiosity.
Given the cultural environnt and the discussions among her little peers, the young girl was fascinated by the so-called stories of the Demon King.
Doris chuckled softly.
Intrigued by the “Demon King stories,” seeing them as fairy tales, Doris believed that as her daughter grew older and gained more experience, she would certainly co to understand the path of a chef more profoundly.
It’s never wrong to cultivate from a young age.
Suddenly, Doris frowned, watching a middle-aged male secretary in a suit, sent by Gaius, proceed from the hall towards the courtyard, standing respectfully before Gaius, listening to the Heavenly King’s instructions.
“Father still won’t give up,” Doris sighed softly.
Even a revered Culinary Heavenly King can have his vision obscured by treasures.
That Young Dragon Chef, Young Devil, rising like a cot.
The culinary world across nations agreed that a new Heavenly King in the Chinese Realm was inevitable soon.
If by then, her father Gaius remained unwilling to part with the legendary cookware, it’s likely that the second instance of a Heavenly King culinary confrontation since the new era of fantasy would erupt!
Doris worried deeply, thinking, “It absolutely can’t drag out until then. Looks like I need to et him as soon as possible and find a way to resolve this issue.”
