"so big!"
The strawberry that Pendragon deliberately left behind caught Rin's eye like a pearl, and it worked quite well.
Miss Rin took a small strawberry, chewed it briefly, and then looked at Pendragon with her bright, beautiful eyes.
How did you wash it?
"Licked clean."
"Ugh! Are you trying to die?!"
Miss Rin reached out and slapped Pendragon's arm, without saying anything about her being disgusting or playing a prank. She then ate the strawberry in small bites, her face turning slightly redder, making her look even more tempting than the bright red strawberry.
P.S.: Merlin's two genitals are in heat. Once her heat is over, I'll take her to have her ovaries removed.

"I'll go to the kitchen and stew the fish."
Pendragon shook the goldfish in his hand, which was still breathing with its mouth open; there was no fishy smell at all.
"Do you know?"
Miss Rin asked instinctively.
"Just boil it in water, right? After all, top-quality ingredients taste good no matter how you cook them."
"That's true... simmer for two and a half hours, using the clay pot on the second shelf of the kitchen cabinet."
"Where's the salt?"
"Just a small spoonful is enough."
"learn."
Pendragon gave her an OK sign, and then he disappeared.
The pot, water, salt, and fire were all prepared according to Rin's standards. Pendragon used his telekinesis to create a barrier on the stove to prevent anyone from stealing the food.
If we get to the vegetable garden now, we should still be able to have breakfast. We can also bring some back for Rin.
Pendragon tried two different flavors of rice balls that interested him and then packed some of Rin's favorite flavors to take back with him.
After all, no matter how delicious rice is, it can never provide the same satisfaction as eating large chunks of meat, or have the same impact as a dessert.
Rin quite liked one of the chicken-filled rice balls, and Pendragon snapped his fingers and conjured two more for her.
"I can't eat that much."
Miss Rin quickly waved her hand. She had already eaten two rice balls the size of fists. If she ate any more, she would have to punch to aid digestion.
Pendragon didn't want to eat it either, so he just tossed it on the table. Without her magic, the rice ball would soon disappear.
After finishing their farm work, the senior students in the dormitory gathered the transfer students together and talked to them about the research association.
It's similar to a club in a regular school, but since this is New Oriental, research groups for various dishes and themed cuisines have replaced the clubs.
Unlike ordinary clubs that only need a small activity room, in this wealthy school, influential research groups can even have their own buildings and astronomical budgets. For example, the demolition maniac, Erina Shogi, always felt that her place was too small.
After listening to what her seniors had to say, Rin, who belongs to the "Go Home After School" club, expressed no interest.
Of course, this was the message she was conveying to Pendragon and Lily, which was on the surface a euphemistic way of stalling for time.
Only Xingping showed interest and took the bus with Xiaohui to check out the service hall.
Pendragon winked at Lily, signaling her to come to his room later for fish soup.
"How about we start a kendo research club?"
Lily turned her head and stared intently at Pendragon.
"Since you are named Saber, you must also hope that swordsmanship can be promoted and developed."
"Don't worry, they definitely won't allow such an ordinary organization to be established."
Pendragon shattered Lily's fantasy: could a magic academy in a Western fantasy world really allow the establishment of a cultivators' association?
They went back to their room to wait for the fish soup to cook. Pendragon opened a book to read, while Rin yawned and went back to sleep.
She was so tired that she fell asleep instantly on the bed without even changing out of her pajamas.
Pendragon estimated the time it would take for the fish soup to finish, then threw a green dome onto Rin's bed, making the flow of time inside eight times faster than outside.
Miss Rin was awakened by a feeling of suffocation. Her nose was pinched and gently shaken, and the eight-fold increase in time flow was enough to restore her energy, so she easily regained consciousness.
However, due to habitual laziness, Miss Rin did not open her eyes immediately. Instead, she pulled the hand that was pinching her nose off and tied her arms around herself.
"Hmm... let me sleep a little longer, I stayed up really late yesterday..."
"If you don't get up soon, the fish soup will be gone."
Pendragon held an unopened casserole in his other hand, and Lily was also in the room.
"Oh!"
Miss Rin opened her eyes and looked at Pendragonto's hand under the casserole, her expression twitching slightly.
Ruthless Iron Hand.
The doors and windows were sealed off to prevent the golden light of the soup from attracting attention.
Rin pursed her lips, not believing that this guy could make food that glows.
"Okay."
Pendragon placed the casserole on the floor and lifted the lid—
A burst of hot steam, accompanied by a rich aroma, spread out, and saliva began to be secreted under the tongue.
Golden light? It doesn't exist.
Pendragon originally planned to manually add some special effects using the Reality Stone, but since everyone was so familiar with each other, didn't they all have a good idea of what a snap of the fingers would look like? So he decided against it.
The fish meat had completely dissolved into the soup, leaving only the golden fish scales reflecting light in the pot; it wouldn't be accurate to say there was no golden glow.
The soup of this fish was exceptionally clear, just like the clear, transparent water in boiled cabbage soup, as if it had been filtered countless times, creating a striking contrast with its rich aroma.
Pendragon and the others each filled a bowl, and while Rin and Lily were still blowing on it to cool it down, Pendragon took the first sip.
The soup was incredibly flavorful, as all the ingredients dissolved into the water. Although it looked like ordinary water, it had a flavor that seemed to stick to her lips.
It tastes much better than the crucian carp soup that the dorm supervisor made, but it's not as good as the one Rin made yesterday afternoon; it's a little off.
It's unclear whether the problem stems from the method used or from a variation artificially created by Pendragon that differs from previous ones.
It also had a strengthening effect on the body, so Pendragon only drank one bowl, and Rin and Lily shared the rest of the pot, which was better than nothing.
If they could eat top-grade ingredients every day in this world for a hundred years, they would probably become like Gudako, capable of tearing apart Servants with their bare hands, when they returned to the Moon World.
That evening, when Pendragon and the others went down for dinner, they heard rumors that Yukihira had accepted a food battle—a meat cooking showdown—when choosing a club.
Speaking of meat... Pendragon thought of that huge, wasted piece of A5 Wagyu beef from the anime.
Given the world's mutations, could it become a premium food ingredient?
Pendragon glanced at the spiky-haired Yukihira. If he were the meat spirit, he definitely wouldn't use a top-grade ingredient to deal with him, unless it was to compete with Isshiki for a place among the top ten outstanding youths.
However, it's a bit of a waste to use such a large piece of A5 Wagyu beef only to make three bowls of rice.
Don't worry, we'll all come and cheer you on!
Pendragon patted Yukihira on the shoulder, and Yukihira's author's stool shook as if it were about to crack.
Yukihira's face flushed red instantly, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if he had suffered internal injuries.
By the time Xingping recovered, only the dormitory supervisor was left in the cafeteria, cleaning up the dishes.
P.S.: Merlin has been showing off on my keyboard these past few days... Yes, this chapter was written by him!

"hiss……"
Yukihira rubbed his shoulders. That slap just now really... made all the bones in his body feel weak. The tingling and itchy sensation from the friction and vibration between his bones was extremely uncomfortable.
After that, you rarely saw Yukihira and Kei in the dormitory anymore; they were always in the activity room researching how to make rice bowls that could defeat their opponents.
As a result, he even skipped theory classes, and Pendragon used the Force to help him cheat and answer the questions.
In exchange, Yukihira will have to make extra rice bowls for the others to try during the food battle.
Three days passed quickly, and because of the food battle, even the regular cultural classes were canceled.
It's estimated that Erina played a small part in this, as these high school students (who were just looking for a chef) started discussing this topic, which had been the hottest topic on campus for several days.
After all, as the only transfer student who made a harsh statement at the opening ceremony, Yukihira had attracted a lot of hatred. Apart from the students in the Polar Star Dormitory, everyone was probably waiting to see him make a fool of himself by being forced to drop out of school.
Meat Charm is a formidable character, recognized by the students for her culinary skills and other abilities.
"Have you heard? Today's food battle..."
"Hmm, Meat Charm and Rice Bowl Research Club, right?"
"Poor Gai Ken, he actually got targeted by Erina Nigiri..."
"That arrogant transfer student, this time we'll make sure he gets kicked out of Totsuki Academy."
"..."
This was all the talk Pendragon and his companions heard on the road.
"Yukihira-kun isn't considered a good candidate at all."
"Well, that's normal. After all, he said some really outrageous things at the opening ceremony without a care in the world."
The people in the same dormitory were also discussing it. When they entered the venue, they found that the indoor stadium, which could originally accommodate thousands of people, was now completely full!
Pendragon thought that they had arrived early enough for the sake of being on the same side, but now there wasn't even a place to sit. They could only stand where the cheerleaders used to be, looking up at the big screen in the air.
Pendragon and the other two didn't need to see the magnified effect. Both Rin and Lily used magic techniques that enhanced their eyesight, so they could see the chef's arena built below the big screen clearly.
"During the opening ceremony, didn't the old principal boast a lot about this being an elite school? How come so many people are watching a small competition... Could they all be shills and paid promoters just to make a show of it?"
Pendragon muttered to Rin in a low voice.
"It's probably the students from the elementary and high school sections who have come..."
Miss Rin isn't interested in this kind of thing, and she wouldn't bother with anyone else.
"It will take them a long time to finish."
Pendragon was a bit bored and not interested in the cute girl hosting the food battle, so he simply started reading.
The contestants' entrance ceremony was just like a real boxing match. Meat Charm, wearing a black cloak, walked out of the contestant tunnel, accompanied by two henchmen in black suits and sunglasses.
Meat Demon walked to the front of the arena, waved her hand and flung her cloak high into the air, revealing her pair of voluptuous breasts, even the outside of the cover was covered with aggressive flame-like patterns.
A cheer erupted from the crowd, especially from the boys, who were treated like superstars, the center of attention.
Next up was Yukihira, and his popularity was comparable to that of Nikumi, who received cheers from the entire audience.
only……
"go to hell!"
A boy made a megaphone gesture with his hands and shouted loudly.
Don't underestimate people!
"You damn transfer student!"
"You said a lot of disrespectful things at the opening ceremony."
"Booooooo!"
The audience booed, and even the cute host was speechless, managing to squeeze out an introduction: "The legendary transfer student who is currently attracting a lot of attention, Yukihira Soshin-kun."
Three figures also emerged from the contestant tunnel. However, apart from Xingping, who was at the front and full of energy like a proud rooster, Xiaohui and the senior with the pompadour hairstyle both looked listless.
"If the opponent is Mito, the outcome is already obvious."
