The Magic Chef of Ice and Fire (冰火魔厨)

Subtitle by Kingcastillo, thank you for faithfully watching

Stop.

We are on a guarding mission.

We can't let an unidentified person leave.

You showed up at the border in a time of war.

We can not just trust everyone.

Your identity needs to be further verified.

Sirs,

the Ice Moon Empire Knights we've been following are injured

and retreating.

What?

They are bullies.

Good boy.

You will not be valued in Ice Moon Empire.

Maybe you should consider

joining the Mage Association of Oran Empire.

I am sorry.

Who is he?

He went too far.

Young man,

are you here to attend school?

I know the principal of Orchid Dream Academy.

Do you need

me to introduce you to him?

Do you mean it?

I'm an honest person.

I wouldn't lie to you.

Besides,

it never hurts to check it out.

You'll be able to join the Orchid Dream Academy after passing an easy test.

But it will cost you some money to have me recommend you.

I'll charge you

one gold coin.

One gold coin?

You might as rob somebody.

Boy,

you're too petty.

I'll pay you once everything is settled.

If you refuse,

I can do this on my own.

One silver coin it is.

But

I'll only make sure to take you there.

(and then find the strongest magic scholar to ask about)

This is it.

Excuse me.

Are you mistaken?

This doesn't look like an academy.

This restaurant is

the assessment site of Orchid Dream Academy's Culinary Arts Department.

Culinary Arts?

Quit talking.

Give me the money for my recommendation.

I'll take you to do the assessment.

Another one?

How many people have you brought here today?

Miss Meng,

here is the thing.

I came across this boy outside of the gate.

He wants to learn cooking.

Thus I took him to you.

Him?

He doesn't seem to be here to learn cooking,

but to eat, drink and have fun.

Send him away.

Boy,

my job is done here.

I...

Didn't he tell you

you could go?

Do not disturb others here.

I'm here to do the assessment.

That guy makes a living by charging high recommendation fees.

He recommends everyone.

Consider what you paid him the money for a lesson.

I haven't done the assessment.

Why do you send me away?

I've seen many people like you

who want to take a shortcut and pay your way into the Academy.

We don't welcome people like you.

Do you judge people by outward appearance?

That's nonsense.

Orchid Dream Academy is the one of the best academies in the whole Yangguang Continent.

We value nothing but real abilities.

We'd never judge people by outward appearance.

(really knows how to achieve real Ice and Fire from the Same Origin.)

Why don't you give me a chance

and let me prove myself

by cooking a dish?

No need to cook a dish.

Since you want to learn cooking,

knife work

is a basic skill.

Let's compete our knife work.

Peel a potato with a knife

and make sure that the peeled potato is round.

This is just a basic skill.

This does not meet the admission criteria.

Let me show you

what

real knife work is.

Go ahead.

The pattern carved like this

must be very rough.

Not necessarily.

I'm done.

What?

You could carve such a fine work.

Again.

Good knife work.

It seems

that I have more reasons to learn here.

Wait till you pass my test.

Insignificant skill.

So?

Orchid Dream Academy

has so much to offer.

You know
