The entire dining hall suddenly fell silent, and almost all the chefs looked at the waiter who walked quickly towards Mag, with shock on their faces.
"This...how is this possible!" Sibal opened his mouth wide, almost unable to believe his ears.
Nandeli's eyes went white and he fell backwards. The frightened disciples on the side hurriedly stretched out their hands to support him, and they were extremely panicked.
Everyone had guessed who would win the best prize at this palace banquet, but no one would have thought that the best prize would be won by an unknown chef, and he was also a chef from the City of Chaos.
A tall and thin chef next to Bierman stepped forward, looked at the waiter with a ridiculous face and shouted: "This is impossible! Butler Tailen, is this a mistake? How can the best dish be served by a famous person?" An unknown chef wins? Isn’t His Majesty the King’s favorite food the food cooked by Chef Bierman?”
"Yes, Master has won the best dish for nine consecutive years, how could he lose?"
"Master made more than ten dishes today, and he only made a few dishes? There must be something wrong!"
Bierman's disciples all questioned, with a faint look of anger on their faces.
Other chefs also agreed. There is only one best. Compared to awarding it to a young chef from a chaotic city, awarding it to a highly respected chef like Bierman would obviously make them feel more accepting.
Bierman also stopped wiping the stove at this moment. His expression was somewhat lonely, but he did not appear too excited or angry.
Tai Lun stopped. As an inner court attendant trusted by the king, he naturally knew that in the past few decades, Bierman was indeed the king's favorite chef, but the dark horse that suddenly appeared today was indeed too much. He was so powerful that he won the best prize at the palace banquet, which made Biermann look a little lackluster. It was understandable that his disciples had doubts.
However, it is not a trivial matter to question the king's decision. Tai Lun's expression became a little serious and he looked at everyone and said: "This is the best dish for the palace banquet that His Majesty the King appointed in front of all the guests. There is nothing wrong with it. It was presented by Mr. Mag All three dishes were praised by the king and the guests. The best dish was well deserved, and he was even called to the palace to receive the reward. There is no doubt that Mr. McGonagall is not an unknown chef. The chef personally invited by His Highness the Second Prince."
Tai Lun's words were like a basin of ice water poured down, and the dining hall became quiet again. The faces of the chefs changed slightly, and they did not dare to speak.
Now that His Majesty has asked Mag to go to the palace to receive the reward, the best has naturally become a certainty. What surprised all the chefs was that Mag was actually invited by His Highness the Second Prince. This level of status is not something that ordinary chefs can dare to do. Anyone can be provoked casually.
A chef from the City of Chaos defeated all the top chefs from the Norland continent.
This will probably be the most incredible topic in the chef world this year.
"Wow! Uncle Mag is so awesome!"
"I cooked the whole process by myself and won the best dish at the palace banquet. Uncle Mag is my idol!"
Lukaka and Ruluka looked at Mag with admiration. For them, the best palace banquet was something they could only look up to, but now it was taken by Mag. They suddenly felt like their dream had come true. .
Kalulu's mouth was still open, and he looked at Mag and praised: "This is probably the legendary... the real person doesn't show his face."
"Mr. Mag, please, your Majesty and the distinguished guests are still waiting in the hall." Tai Lun walked up to Mag, a little surprised by Mag's youth, but still said with a smile.
If nothing else happens, this young chef may be His Majesty’s favorite chef for a long time to come.
Of course, if His Highness the Second Prince is the successor to the throne in the future, he may still be the master of this dining hall.
Mag reached out and took off his apron without showing too much excitement. He looked at Tai Lun and nodded with a smile: "Please."
Isn't he happy?
No, he was so happy!
The success of the mission is of course something to be happy about. The Sword of Damocles hanging over your head has been removed, and you no longer have to worry about this mission of the system.
Mag smiled and nodded at Kalulu and his son, and followed Tai Lun towards the door. These three father and son were pretty good people.
As for the envious and jealous looks from the chefs, he accepted them with a smile.
It's really fun to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger. Looking at the eyes of these little people who want to beat him to death but can't do it, my mood becomes even more pleasurable.
When he was about to reach the entrance of the hall, Bierman wiped his hands with a dry towel, stepped forward, stretched out his somewhat old right hand towards Mag, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Chef Mag."
Mag stopped and looked at the smile on the old man's face, which already had many fine wrinkles. After a little hesitation, he stretched out his right hand and held his hand, "Thank you."
"Although I haven't been able to taste the dishes you cooked, the names of the dishes should be very interesting. I hope that young chefs can be as innovative as you. This is a blessing for our chef community." Bierman looked at Mag's eyes were filled with relief and emotion.
"I think so." Mag felt the strength and warmth coming from the old hand and nodded with a smile.
The smile on Bierman's face grew stronger and he let go of his hand, "Let's go then. Winning this award for the first time is still somewhat interesting. Of course, when you win more, you won't take it to heart."
"Okay." Mag nodded looking at the smile on Bierman's face. He was a wealthy old man and took two quick steps to keep up with Tai Lun.
In addition to the dining hall, Tai Lun led Mag towards the main hall. On the way, he also specifically told him a few taboos and etiquette after going to the main hall.
After all, it was his first time going to the palace, so Mag naturally remembered everything in his mind. In this kind of feudal society, a bad person would have his head chopped off by the king.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for defeating chefs from all over Nolan Continent for his spicy grilled fish and winning the title of the best dish in this palace banquet. He successfully completed the system task and received a super reward: a chance to briefly regain his peak strength! At the same time, the restaurant was upgraded. It is level 3. Please check the various permissions and upgrades opened by the restaurant after you return to the restaurant!"
At this moment, the system's voice sounded in Mag's mind.
"Fuck!"
Mag couldn't help but blurt out after listening to the system's words.
"Um?"
Tai Lun, who was walking in front, looked back at Mag with some confusion.
Mag was a little embarrassed and said: "I'm sorry, my reflex arc is a bit long, which means my reaction is a bit slow. I was a bit too excited to see the king for the first time."
