Chapter 259: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 62

"Allow me to introduce the three Judges for this cooking competition," Evelyn gestured towards the entrance of the backstage. "Firstly, we have the esteemed Maria, the sixth member of the Assembly Knights, who is beloved by all."

ραΠdαsΝοvεl ƈοm A round of applause echoed as Maria's small and petite body walked out from the backstage.

Maria waves her hand to greet the whole crowd cheering at her before going over to take a sit on the first judge.

"Our second Judge, the right-hand man of Chief Kylo, and also the third member of the Assembly Knights, our beloved Wesley!"

Wesley walked out from the backstage.

Unlike with Maria though, Wesley received countless boos. This was evidently because the event is related to food.

Wesley was already used to it. So, he just waves his hand briefly before going to the sit of the second judge.

Maria and Wesley greeted each other in courtesy.

"And our last judge, the Messiah of War, and the second member of the Assembly Knights, Christopher,"

The moment Christopher emerged from backstage, Kayn's gaze instantly became piercing, and murderous intent could be felt around his body.

Natas immediately understood the reason for Kayn's reaction.

Christopher was one of Kayn's treacherous allies. In the future, the former was officially given the title Messiah of War by Nicholas after escaping from 'The Bridge', implying his prowess and great capability when it comes to fighting in huge battles. Though the real reason for it was that wherever Christopher goes, there's a high chance for war to follow after.

Eventually, after Kayn entered the 'Tower' for the last time, Christopher received the title Monarch of War from Nicholas, evidently because he was one of the main players for Kayn's death.

Kayn just found right this instant during the time Christopher was inside 'The Bridge', he was actually a member of the Assembly of Freedom. If he had known about this piece of crucial information back then, he would have never trusted the latter. But on second thought, it's next to impossible for him to find out considering that the entire Assembly of Freedom was defeated by Old Mayor George. Even though there were surviving members, they would surely keep a low profile or possibly change their identities altogether in hopes of starting anew.

Gilbert instantly noticed Kayn's unstable emotion, so he patted the latter in hopes of pulling him back. "What's the matter?"

"Change of plans," Kayn started calming down.

Gilbert looks at Christopher who is currently waving at the crowd as he mutters. "Do you know that man?"

"Yes," Kayn nodded as murderous intent slightly appeared in his eyes.

"Is that one of the people who you said betrayed you?" Gilbert still vividly remembered when Kayn talked about being betrayed by some people in the past.

"Yes," Kayn confirmed once more.

"Understood," Gilbert turned serious. He doesn't have to ask Kayn about what he plans on doing to Christopher as it's quite clear to him already that Kayn is going to make the man suffer a life worst than death. "From now until you enact your revenge, I'll follow whatever you tell me to do,"

"Thank you," Kayn appreciates Gilbert's offer. "But, I'll have to deal with this myself,"

It is a personal vendetta, after all.

"Don't hesitate to tell me if you need anything, alright?" Gilbert still offered to help.

"I will," Kayn isn't a fool. As soon as he realized that he needs help, he will ask for it immediately. He will not hesitate because the main goal here is to make them pay for betraying him, not to die while doing so.

"The competition is about to begin soon, so let's prepare," Kayn informed Gilbert as the two of them went to the contestant's booth.

Each of the participants was allowed to take one assistant with them. In this way, they will be able to finish preparing their meal quickly.

The primary motive is evident — there is no time to spare for this event, especially with war looming on the horizon. Its main objective was to simply uplift people's spirits and provide a temporary distraction from the chaos and disaster of yesterday.

And as one can see, it was proven very effective.

After announcing the judges for the cooking competition, the host informed all participants to go to their cooking stations as the elimination round would begin shortly after.

Numerous contestants quickly went to their respective cooking stations and prepared for the announcement to start.

As expected, because of the presence of quite a number of professional chefs, barely anyone from the crowd decided to join.

Since this was still the elimination round, not the main competition yet, the Judges personally pick the theme for it.

The theme was; favorite food.

"This is clearly to eliminate those people who aren't professional chefs," Kayn muttered. It is quite obvious the theme favorite food means the judge's favorite food.

As long as one gets the approval of at least one of the judges, one can immediately pass the elimination round. Unfortunately, only professional chefs know about the favorite food of each judge, so it is next to impossible for ordinary contestants to pass this round.

"Are we going to cook fried chicken?" Gilbert asked Kayn.

"We will, but we'll also cook the favorite food of the other Judges," Kayn smiles as he glimpses at Christopher.

Unlike the other professional chefs who only know or have an idea of the favorite food of one of the judges, Kayn knows all of their favorites.

Maria likes fried chicken.

Wesley likes fish.

And Christopher is gourmet, so he likes his food unique from what is commonly served in any restaurant. In other words, a one of a kind dish.

It might seem difficult to meet Christopher's standard, but in truth, as long as one mix and match different ingredients to create a one-of-a-kind dish and make it taste great, he'll instantly like it.

The reason is that Christopher honestly just wants to pretend that he is sophisticated. But once someone digs deeper into him, they'll easily understand that he doesn't even know practically everything that he is doing. And that he is nothing more but a dog with great strength who only does things that his master orders him to do.

"You go prepare the fried chicken, while I take care of the fish," Kayn ordered Gilbert before quickly preparing for the three dishes he intended to serve.

Gilbert nodded and swiftly started moving.

The rest of the contestants also started as soon as they heard the theme.

On the other hand, the ordinary contestants did their best to observe the professional chefs in order to get an idea of what the Judge's favorite dishes are.

As if prepared already for that, all professional chefs pulled a curtain around their cooking station to block the other chefs from seeing what they are trying to prepare, this includes Kayn and Gilbert, as well.

With no other choice, the ordinary contestants ultimately decided to just prepare a dish that they personally love. Anyways, the theme was favorite food. If they are lucky, the judges might reconsider as long as they like their dishes.
