Ishitsumugi no Shou 21-3N

The path of gluttony - 3

[Eating contest]

Meb: Why did she even enter if she doesn't eat much!?

Aka: A strong sense of duty... I guess? She really hates to lose.

Kir: Dontcha think she just wanted to show off to her new friends? We're talking about Rokku here.

Shi/Suz: Ah...

Mino Wagin: Karanohana is done with his super spicy soup! Ahead by one person, their team begins the sweet course!

Aya: Renge-senpai! Please do your best!

Ren: Heh. Miroku always does her best, no need to mention it. A mere soup like this... *slurp* ...Mhm.

Mino Wagin: Miroku's hands have stopped!

Tam: Yo, that's way too fast!

Ren: ...This is shockingly spi-... d-delicious. I could keep eating this forever... Yeah.

Tou: She eats a spoonful and stops, another spoonful and stops again...

Wak: Could it be that it's not just the amount, but she's bad with spicy food as well!?

Yum: A-Ancestor! The flavour! You should change the flavour!

Ren: Ah! I can hear my descendant's voice from the heavens. The flavour... That's it! The sweet course is here too!

Mino Wagin: Unbelievable! She's asking for the 2nd round's dish! Oooh!? The organisers are okaying this!

SON: Waaah! It's the ultra jumbo parfait we all ate at my birthday party during our first year!

Ren: This is what Miroku was supposed to be eating from the start... *nom* Heh, laughable. I can't taste it at all!

Kar: Your tongue is done for!

Ren: Heh. Thanks to that, the thick whipped cream goes down like soup... *gulp* *gulp* *gulp*

Kir: Rokku! That's not the parfait! That's the soup! The actual spicy one!

Mit: Aah! Maybe she's confused, but she's intensely gulping down the soup!

Yuu: Hurray! Keep at it and eat the parfair too! Ren-chan, keep up the good fight!

Ren: I don't need to be told that! *omnomnom*

Its: What power! Is she so paralysed that even her satiety centre broke down!?

Ren: Rgh... Rrrrgh...

Shi: Ah, looks like her satiety centre's still working.

Suz: Her mirokuness is off the charts...

Yum: Oh, my poor ancestor! But please, please, hang in there, somehow!

Ren: Watch this, Yumiko. Watch Miroku's willpower. For Miroku, a parfait is little more than dessert!

Anz: I think the same is true for the majority of people...

Mino　Wagin: Just now, Amaoshuu in charge of the sweet course, has finished his jumbo parfait! The team moves on to the udon course! [1]

Ren: *nom* *nom* Mrgh, I can still do this... Miroku's capable of much more... than... this...

Aka: Renchi! You can't go any further!

Ren: Aaa...

Aka: Ren...chi? Aah! Renchi! She's already... finished...

Fuu: Good work, Renge! Now, just leave the rest to Inubouzaki Fuu! Haaaah!

Mino Wagin: In this crucial moment, the Hero Club's president makes her appearance! The spoon in her hands moves with lightning speed!

Sum: H-Huh...? The audience suddenly got quiet.

Mino Wagin: U-Unbelievable... There was more than half of the parfait left, but it disappeared in a blink of an eye!?

Fuu: Snack time is over. Come on... Let's begin the real meal!
