At the beginning, Shinji gave me the elf

It is worth mentioning that Akamatsu, whom Shiraishi had fought against in Liyong City before, is the nominal manager of the grassland area.

He also cordially invited Shiraishi to visit Blueberry Academy.

Now that he was already here, Shiraishi decided to pay a visit to Akamatsu.

So, under Zi Yu's guidance, Bai Shi came to the large square in the grassland area.

In the spacious large square, students from Blueberry Academy were bustling about.

They gathered in groups of three or five, either enthusiastically discussing interesting bits of extracurricular activities, or concentrating on the elf battles.

Bai Shi, accompanied by the Four Heavenly Kings Zi Yu, stood out in the crowd and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Although the enthusiasm brought by winning the Higaki Tournament has gradually subsided, Shiraishi has still accumulated a certain amount of fame.

Therefore, when Bai Shi stepped into the large square, many students of Blueberry Academy recognized his identity.

Among these students, Akamatsu's eyesight was particularly sharp, and he caught Shiraishi's figure almost at a glance.

"Hey, Shiraishi, why are you here? Are you here to have a hot spirit battle with me?"

After seeing Shiraishi, Akamatsu's face showed surprise. He quickly walked up and started talking to him eagerly.

"I was invited by Zi Yu to visit Blueberry Academy."

Bai Shi raised the corner of his mouth slightly and explained to Akamatsu.

"Since you have come all this way, you must try the hot and delicious food I cooked myself."

Akamatsu's eyes suddenly brightened up, and he took the initiative to invite Shiraishi, wanting to give him a good treat.

"Since you have invited me so kindly, I will respectfully obey your order."

Bai Shi didn't hesitate too much and agreed immediately.

"..."

Seeing Bai Shi nod, Zi Yu hesitated to speak, and a very strange expression appeared on his face.

The dishes made by Akamatsu are not something that everyone can easily enjoy.

She had tasted it once before, but it left a big scar on her.

Then, Akamatsu led the two to the kitchen that the academy had specially built for them.

"Bai Shi, today I will let you taste my best flaming fried rice!"

As Akamatsu spoke, he skillfully began to select and prepare the necessary ingredients.

"Old rice, ham, peppers, cherry berries, hot sauce...hiss?"

When Shiraishi caught a glimpse of the ingredients prepared by Akamatsu, he couldn't help but gasp, and thoughts of regret welled up in his mind.

Even though he usually likes spicy food, he might find it a little too much to handle the dish that Akamatsu is about to prepare.

Ziyu looked at Bai Shi with a sympathetic look, as if to tell him: "You will have to rely on yourself for the rest of your life."

"Platymon!"

Akamatsu released the Platypus and commanded it to use fire skills to help him cook.

Under the illumination of the flames spewed by the Platypus, Akamatsu methodically put the ingredients in one by one, and used his skillful techniques to stir-fry and flip the pan continuously.

Make sure every ingredient is evenly heated to fully release its flavor.

The perfect cooperation between the Pokémon and the trainer makes the entire cooking process full of both visual and olfactory enjoyment.

As the cooking progressed, a strong, pungent aroma gradually spread.

"Thank you for your hard work, Platypus!"

As soon as Akamatsu finished speaking, the duck-billed fire beast immediately stopped spitting fire, and the flames were extinguished instantly, leaving only the residual heat lingering in the air.

He smiled and patted the Platypus to show encouragement, then turned around and continued to finish the cooking.

The Platypus stood aside, watching Akamatsu busying himself quietly, with a bright and proud light flashing in his eyes.

It was obvious that Infernape was full of confidence in the dish he had created in collaboration with his trainer.

"Shiraishi, please enjoy my flaming fried rice!"

Akamatsu's words revealed strong anticipation and pride, and he placed a plate of bright red fried rice in front of Shiraishi.

The fried rice looks like a burning flame, with red and golden rice grains intertwined and emitting a pungent smell.

"well!"

Bai Shi hesitated for a few seconds, but finally plucked up the courage and picked up the spoon.

He carefully scooped a small handful of fried rice and slowly put it into his mouth.

As soon as the fried rice entered his mouth, a strong spicy flavor burst out, as if fire was burning in Shiraishi's mouth.

Bai Shi only felt a hot current rushing to the top of his head, sweat quickly seeped out from his forehead, slid down his cheeks, and tiny beads of sweat also secreted from the tip of his nose.

However, after the spicy impact, he gradually tasted the softness of the rice and the rich taste of other ingredients.

The rice is cooked to perfection, soft and chewy, as if dancing on the tip of your tongue.

The accompanying vegetables, ham and other ingredients also retain their own taste and blend perfectly with the rice.

"Akamatsu, the fried rice you made is very layered."

“Although it was a bit too spicy for me to bear at first, the taste was delicious afterwards.”

Shiraishi wiped the sweat from his forehead with a tissue, savored the fried rice, and gave his sincere praise.

"Hahaha, I knew you would like it!"

"I specially adjusted the spiciness of this fried rice so that you can have more surprises when you taste it."

When Akamatsu heard Shiraishi's praise, a proud smile appeared on his face.

"Akamatsu, this fried rice is so delicious, can I share it with my elf?"

Bai Shi ate a few bites of fried rice and couldn't hold it any longer, so he quickly found an excuse.

The reason he did this was not because the fried rice tasted bad, but because he was worried that if he continued to eat it, he would have an unpleasant experience when going to the toilet tomorrow.

"Of course. Making spicy dishes that are liked by both humans and elves is my lofty ideal."

Akamatsu naturally would not object and nodded with a smile.

"Xiduolan, come out and have a taste!"

After receiving Akamatsu's consent, Shiraishi felt relieved and immediately released Xiduolan.

He usually added cherry berries to the treasures he made for fire elves.

I guess the fire-type Xiduolan will like Akamatsu's extremely spicy fried rice.

"This...is this Xiduolan?"

Seeing Xiduolan appear, Akamatsu couldn't help but open his mouth wide, looking quite surprised.

He had never expected that Bai Shi had actually subdued such a precious and powerful legendary fire elf.

Zi Yu, who was standing behind Bai Shi, also had his pupils slightly shrunk, and it was obvious that he was not in a calm mood.

Shiraishi ignored the two's surprise and directly brought the fried rice to Xiduolan.

Xiduolan sniffed it, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He put the whole plate of fried rice into his mouth.

After wolfing down the food, Xiduolan shook his body slightly, as if he was savoring the deliciousness of the fried rice.

"Great! Legend has it that the elf Sidolan also likes the spicy food I make."

Akamatsu couldn't help but smile with pride when he saw Sidoran's satisfied look.

It is undoubtedly a great honor for the dishes he makes to win the recognition of the legendary elves.

Seeing Akamatsu so happy, Shiraishi and Shiyu were also very happy.

They looked at each other, the same joy shining in their eyes.
