404,

A mega annual event held once every ten years.

【Dragon Festival】

A ceremony held to honor the strongest race and the strongest being in this world, the "Dragon".

Although it originally started as an offering of the most delicious food to the Dragon, in order to bring peace to the land, over time, the Dragon Festival has developed into a large-scale competition to determine who can cook the most delicious dishes.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of the street opposite the shops, Little Dragon's debut battle is about to begin.

"I never thought we would be not only partners but also competitors~"

At the rooftop of a certain building, Ms. Bernan, with her hands crossed, is watching the first match of Little Dragon together with Cyclone.

"You're also participating?"

"No, it's just my husband."

"..."

At that moment, Cyclone wanted to make a sarcastic comment.

This person actually has a husband?

But as he thought about it, the emcee of the competition has already started speaking.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your patience!! As soon as lunch ended, the preliminary round for Group 53 is finally starting!!"

With the opening remarks of the emcee, the audience started to get excited.

"Let me first introduce on my right, the macho chef from Soap Village! Mr. Billy, the Neko-Eared Tribe!!"

With the perfect choice of words, the emcee summed up all the features of the opponent, covered in disgusting muscles. But perhaps because of these features, there were also some boos coming from the audience.

"And on the other side! On my left, we have the beautiful goddess of cooking from Babecaner! Little Dragon, the Auron!!"

In that instant, the pedestrians on the street stopped in their tracks.

Little Dragon was not wearing her usual naked apron at home, she was simply dressed in ordinary clothes with an apron on.

Cyclone didn't really think much of it, but the onlookers couldn't help but cheer loudly.

"So beautiful!!"

"Goddess!!"

"Little Miss Dragon, please marry me!!"

"Mm! Your wives... Every one of your wives is stunningly beautiful. I really don't know why they're all following you."

Seeing Little Dragon suddenly gaining support from many male fans, Ms. Bernan muttered disapprovingly.

Naturally, Cyclone couldn't hear in the midst of the crowd's screaming.

However, Yuna's ears were sharp, not only did she hear it, she heard it very clearly.

But Yuna just smiled and chose not to respond, continuing to watch the show.

Anyone has the chance to participate in the Dragon Festival.

As long as they are recognized by any one of the judges, they can compete.

In the housewife conference of Babecaner, one of the judges, who happened to be a housewife at that time, tasted one of Little Dragon's dishes and was lucky enough to qualify for the competition.

The purpose of this preliminary round is to eliminate a large number of qualifiers, until there are only thirty-two people left, and then find the strongest chef through one-on-one matches.

Don't think that this is a small-scale competition that can be finished in a week or a month.

Once every ten years, for a period of 350 days, equivalent to the dragon's gestation period.

When the previous strongest dragon gives birth to the next strongest dragon, the newly appointed Dragon King, "designated" by the Dragon, will never harm this land throughout their life after eating the most delicious thing in the world.

Legend is over, the Heavenly Dragon and all that, Cyclone couldn't care less.

"That creepy old man over there, Little Dragon will kill him off in no time."

"Even though this is just a preliminary round, don't underestimate your opponents. Anyone who can satisfy those picky judges here is a monster!"

"Oh, really?"

The competition is about to begin, and the staff opens the large box that was placed between the two contestants.

As the box is opened, several forest tentacles slowly crawl out.

Upon seeing the designated ingredient for this match, all male audience members inexplicably become excited.

"No, it can't be..."

"Eileen, stay calm. The match has already begun."

Unlike in the past, Little Dragon appears very mature.

"Oh, facing tentacles in the first match, I hope your wife..."

While Ms. Bonnan worries for Cyclone and his family, all she sees is Cyclone's confident smile.

"You are the one to talk, Aunt Bonnan. Don't underestimate...my woman."

The bell for the match rings, and Little Dragon's debut battle officially begins.

"Alright!! The match starts!! Bet everything on the chef! Present a dish that will please even the Heavenly Dragon!!"
