Shiji: taste bud reversal

221 The trembling of the tongue of God

"W-What?!"

At the moment before Nagi Nagi's hand was about to touch the plate, the dish that had not shown much of a difference just now suddenly erupted with a momentum that could overwhelm people, Nagi Nagi thought it was her own illusion at first, but after the Tongue of God transmitted the feeling of slight numbness, she was already convinced that this dish could indeed make people feel so weirdly oppressive.

Generally speaking, it is very common for a chef to change his or her momentum when cooking, such as Ryo Kurokiba, who seems to be a different person as soon as he makes a dish, is a typical representative.

In the same way, some dishes will also give people a sense of grandeur visually when they are cooked, such as some carved dishes with exquisite knife skills and huge volumes, such as a student in the 51st class of Engetsu Gakuin who made a 1:100 scale Mt. Fuji dish when he graduated, which was visually striking just from a distance.

For example, the special ingredients used in the cuisine, or the spices that are unique to each place, are difficult to fully display in front of diners just by virtue of the appearance and smell of the food.

This is only for ordinary diners, people like Erina and Nagi Shinagi who have the 'Tongue of God' will not be easily shocked by the appearance of the food or the complicated cooking method, and under the terrifying tasting ability of the Tongue of God, no matter how complex the cooking method and seasoning ingredients can be hidden, what can make them feel amazing is nothing more than the 'creativity' that the chef has condensed in the dish.

The fact that the Nagi family has been able to develop so far with the 'Tongue of God' is enough to see what kind of status this ability has in the culinary world, in other words, it is not an exaggeration to call people who possess this ability and elevate it to the pinnacle.

Before today, Nagi Managi thought the same thing.

The reason why the tongue of the god can be named 'god' is because its dominance in the field of cooking is completely worthy of the level of 'god', as the possession of the tongue of the god, Nagi knows exactly how terrifying this ability is, and at her level, most of the dishes don't need to be tasted, just by analyzing the molecules scattered in the air around the food, you can discern the way the food is made. The principles of using ingredients, and even the detailed cooking steps, were so familiar to her that ordinary cooking could not interest her at all, let alone compete with the Tongue of the Gods.

It was precisely because there was no food in the world that could meet the minimum tasting requirements of the 'Tongue of God' that she was reduced to the point where she needed to rely on nutrient solutions to survive.

...... Even herself, as the level of the 'Tongue of the Gods' increases, she is gradually unable to make dishes that can satisfy herself.

And yet, now...

If it weren't for the extraordinarily conscious mind, Nagi would have wondered if he had been infused with too much nutrient solution, so much so that his body was hallucinating.

Her God's Tongue... It's chestnut now?!

The sense of taste, smell, sight, and even hearing are all closed, completely losing the ability of the God's tongue to discriminate, even if you can't analyze the spices used in the dish, at least the brain of the ingredients used in the dish has now become a mess, at this time Nagi Makai is as if she is suddenly blind, in the case of the surrounding environment seems to have become a vacuum, the strange sense of oppression is getting stronger and stronger, and Nagi can clearly hear the sound of her powerful heartbeat.

The degree of sensory loss is getting more and more serious, I don't know how long it has passed, she even feels as if she has completely lost the ability of the Tongue of God, close her eyes, and what appears in front of her is no longer dark, I don't know if it is because of the loss of perception of the Tongue of God, or simply affected by the lights of the restaurant, she always feels that there is a palace of shadows far in front of her.

The silhouette of the palace looks unusually beautiful, and it is not only full of architectural beauty from beginning to end, but also gives people a mysterious feeling of wanting to kneel down and pay homage immediately.

After the idea of visiting the shrine subconsciously rose in his heart, Nagi Managi suddenly found that his sleeping senses seemed to be gradually recovering, as if his vision was slowly recovering after suddenly seeing a bright light, and the power of the God's tongue was gradually awakening.

This would have been a good thing, but now, with the awakening of the 'Tongue of God', Nagikiri's expression is gradually solidifying to the extent that it is almost visible to the naked eye.

It's not just her, but Erina next to her has a similar expression.

Several executive officers who were about to lose consciousness seemed to notice something at this time, sat up straight a little dazedly, and looked at the opposite Nagi Shinnagi, but they were surprised to find that at this time, her clothes were soaked with thin sweat, and she sat stiffly in place, and there was no movement for a long time, her pupils contracted slightly, as if she had seen something very amazing, and her elegant lip line was slightly open, as if she wanted to say something, but it was stuck in her throat.

"Nagi-sama?"

The executive officer, who had regained some consciousness slightly, just wanted to stand up, but on the way to stand up, he was stunned to find that his body had been completely paralyzed at some point, and his muscles were completely unable to exert his strength, and even if his head could react, his body could not cooperate with the corresponding movements.

Her gaze followed the edge of the dining table (Good Money Zhao) in the direction of Nagi Managi, and as she expected, Nagi Managi at this time was under an unimaginable pressure, and the source of this pressure was the dish in front of her that was becoming more and more mysterious in her eyes.

"What are you kidding... Is this what it means to make me surrender to this dish?!"

Nagi Managi's fingers were only clenched together, her nails had sunk into flesh and blood, as the special executive of WGO, a person who had the absolute right to speak in both the table and the cooking world, how could she have bowed her head to anyone, even the most famous chef, had to let go of all arrogance in front of her, let alone bow her head in the face of a cuisine, this is simply a fantasy.

For the first time, the tongue of the gods, who used to be invincible in the face of cooking, sent her a message of 'surrender.'
