Invitation declined: Multiverse Mall is now open for business

Page 189[Rule 3: The first person to finish eating decides the next round of food and starts the next round.]

···

After the young chef finished speaking, everyone’s eyes turned to the food next to them, their expressions filled with fascination.

Because the ethereal aura emanating from these delicacies is so captivating, it enchants the soul.

However, upon seeing a pile of 570 palm-sized steamed buns next to them, many people’s expressions instantly froze.

Ten!

You have to eat ten before you can enter the official competition. That’s way too difficult.

Amidst the surprised and uncertain expressions of the others, Hinata Hyuga, her face flushed and steam rising from her forehead, walked over.

This is a strong performer that Erina Nakiri specially invited to avoid awkward silences.

”I attended!”

Among the crowd stood a beautiful young woman with long, black hair that cascaded down to her slender waist, crimson eyes, a black and red dress, straight, snow-white legs, and a voluptuous figure. Her gaze lingered on the steamed buns and other delicacies before she finally stepped forward.

Name: Akame.

[Identity: Assassin in the world of Akame ga Kill!]

”Kanna is participating too!”

A soft voice sounded.

A little girl who looked only five or six years old, dressed in Lolita fashion, with short, gradient purple hair, blue eyes, and white stockings, ran excitedly out from the crowd.

Name: Kanna.

[Identity: Dragon Clan from the Dragon Maid World.]

Kanna had attended the World Food Festival once before.

”I want to participate too.”

A petite girl with waist-length silver hair, green eyes, and fair skin, dressed in a white nun’s robe with gold trim, walked over cautiously.

Name: Index.

[Identity: A nun from the world of A Certain Magical Index.]

A male customer at the Myriad Realms Mall was left bewildered.

Why are they all cute girls?

Where are the male contestants?

Chapter 158 A Grand Move! A Truly Grand Move!

”Holy crap! Do girls who are cuter and prettier eat more?”

”Where are the men? Why are only women signing up? Where are our male customers from the Myriad Realms Mall? Show some courage!”

”How embarrassing! Not a single man is participating, only cute girls. If not a single man participates, we male customers of the Myriad Realms Mall will lose all face.”

”Don’t let just anyone go up. What if someone can’t even finish ten steamed buns? It would be embarrassing for them to go up there.”

······

The male customers at the Myriad Realms Mall were furious, their faces showing embarrassment as they seemed to notice the disdainful looks directed at them by the female customers around them.

Shame!

What a shame!

Even a little girl dares to participate, yet not a single one of these male customers has signed up so far.

······

One Piece World.

”So hungry~”

On a wooden boat, a boy with messy short black hair, a scar under his left eye, wearing a red vest, denim shorts, a straw hat, and straw sandals, lay listlessly on the boat.

Luffy never expected that the first difficulty he would encounter upon entering the sea would not be the treacherous ocean environment, but rather hunger.

After he finished the food he had brought on board, he still couldn’t find a place to resupply.

He hadn’t eaten for many days.

”A massive eating contest at the Multiverse Mall? Free food?”

Just then, a message appeared in Luffy’s mind. Luffy immediately filtered out most of the information in his mind, leaving only the key information.

”I want to participate!”

The next moment, Luffy disappeared from the spot.

······

Naruto World, Konoha Village.

”Naruto, I’m sure I’ll win this time too.”

A chubby boy looked determined and full of energy.

Choji Akimichi was a member of the Akimichi clan, a prominent clan in Konoha.

”I’m definitely not going to lose this time!”

Naruto Uzumaki said with a defiant look on his face.

Behind them followed a boy with his hands behind his forehead, looking at the two of them with a lazy and helpless expression.

Nara Shikamaru is a member of the Nara clan, a prominent family in Konoha.

Choji Akimichi, Naruto Uzumaki, and Shikamaru Nara already had a good relationship, and after Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki were resurrected, their relationship became even closer.

”I’m going to eat twenty bowls of ramen this time.”

Choji Akimichi had already made his bold statement, but before he could finish, a message appeared in his mind.

”The Multiverse Mall: Commerce connects all realms; everything can be traded, everything can be purchased...”

”A massive eating contest at the Multiverse Mall? Free food?”

Choji Akimichi’s eyes suddenly lit up, radiating a brilliant light.

”agree!”

His parents had told him that he should never offend a force called the Myriad Realms Mall.

Since the other party invited him to participate in the competitive eating contest, he naturally could not refuse.

It’s definitely not for eating!

”Buzz.” [~]

The next moment, Choji Akimichi vanished from the spot.

Naruto Uzumaki, who was standing nearby, also disappeared along with Choji Akimichi.

Shikamaru, ”...”

Shikamaru was left standing there, completely bewildered.

······

The world of fox demons.

”Ugh, I’m out of money for food again!”

A boy wearing a blue school uniform, with medium-length hair, a thin braid wrapped around his neck, and a cowlick, spoke listlessly.

His entire being, and even his very demeanor, exuded the sole word ’poverty’!

He is Bai Yuechu.

”If I don’t eat today, I can save money on a meal.”

Bai Yuechu comforted himself.

Poverty kept him from going hungry.

”The Multiverse Mall: Commerce connects all realms; everything can be traded, everything can be purchased...”

”A massive eating contest at the Multiverse Mall? Free food?”

A message appeared in Bai Yuechu’s mind. The next moment, as if under a spell, Bai Yuechu’s eyes lit up and he drooled.

”agree!”

”I agree!”

”I want to participate!”

···

Bai Yuechu shouted loudly.

·······

”Finally, a male customer has joined!”
