Chapter 828 The Last Daily Life 8
"Xiao Lin, look! Look at this notice!"

Just one day, Kobayashi was hanging out in the Adventurer's Guild with Aqua. When the two were trying to find a suitable task to do, Aqua tugged at his clothes and pointed at a task list, saying this excitedly.

Xiaolin thought it was a mission suitable for her. After all, with the ability of the stupid goddess, only the tasks of purification and expelling the undead were suitable for her, so there were very few missions she could do. However, she didn't expect that it was not such a mission, but she didn't expect that this was not a mission either, but -

"Huh?" Xiao Lin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after seeing the notice clearly. "Competitive eating contest... the date is a week later, and the champion prize is a year's worth of dried meat and sparkling wine... is that the notice?"

It says that the new store is holding a big eating contest to celebrate its opening and attract enough customers. It was posted in the Adventurer's Guild probably in the hope that more people would participate.

Aqua's eyes sparkled as she said, "Look, Xiaolin! It's a very precious high-grade bubble wine! I want to participate! And I must win the championship and get the highest-grade bubble wine!"

As expected of her, she is called the Silly Goddess. As soon as she saw the bubble wine, her eyes lit up and she couldn't walk. She didn't consider any other factors at all and just blindly targeted the high-grade bubble wine.

Xiao Lin sighed helplessly and said, "Although Aqua is indeed greedy, she is just greedy. Can you really beat those who come to participate in the big eater competition?"

"There is still a week left, and I will do special training during this time!" Aqua said confidently: "First, I need to expand my stomach. To achieve this goal, I have to eat non-stop!"

"Hey, let me make it clear first. If you really want to participate in the eating contest just for the sake of a year's worth of jerky and high-grade sparkling wine, I advise you to give up on this half-hearted mentality as soon as possible. If you give a lot but end up with nothing, and then make yourself feel like you're in heaven, then you're really putting the cart before the horse."

"No way! I'm a goddess! Aqua, the goddess of water! I can easily win a big eating contest! Look here, a year's worth of jerky and high-grade sparkling wine, I'll take them!"

Aqua acted like she wanted to be a big eater. Kobayashi always felt that this guy would make big news in the end, and he would definitely be the one who got hurt.

But this girl kept doing this, so Kobayashi had no choice but to help her with special training.

His job is to keep making food for Aqua.

"Thank you so much for the treat... Ngh, I can't fit any more in."

"You guys, you've really only been thinking about eating these days."

Kobayashi looked at the silly goddess slumped on the sofa. This girl had been eating every day these past few days and had no intention of stopping at all. Not to mention whether she would hurt her body, this attitude of doing nothing was already a headache for people.

“Wait a minute, I can’t pretend I didn’t hear that!” Aqua stood up and shouted, “Please give me some praise for persisting in this cruel training—Ugh!”

She no longer had the energy to argue with anyone, and she looked like she was going to spit if he said one more word, which made Xiaolin sigh helplessly.

Brutal special training...

In Xiaolin's opinion, she was just eating what she liked until she was full. But a real big eater would eat anything. What if the food she had to eat during the competition was something she didn't like?

While he was thinking, the stupid goddess suddenly collapsed on the sofa, looking like she was about to faint, and reluctantly reached out her hand to Kobayashi.

"Xiao Lin... please prepare some bubbles for me after dinner, please..."

"You guys ate so much and you still want to drink!?"

Kobayashi looked at the stupid goddess who was forcing herself on herself in surprise. Although there is a saying that people ooze after eating, wouldn't it be better not to add more burden to herself since she has already eaten to this extent?
However, Aqua was unexpectedly stubborn. She clenched her fists and said, "This is indeed very uncomfortable... But I still want to drink the bubble wine! Because this is special training!"

"You don't look uncomfortable at all, you look very happy, okay!?" If you don't know, you might think she has to endure a lot of suffering, but isn't this guy so excited? Is she really not overeating?

A few days later, the eating contest began.

Aqua looks very confident. You know, she has been eating until her stomach is full these days in order to expand her stomach. But she has not shown any signs of gaining weight, which makes people sigh that the goddess has a strong physique.

In addition, Xiao Lin did not expect that so many people would come to participate in the big eater competition today. Some of the powerful adventurers he knew were basically all present, which surprised him a little.

It seems that the store has done a lot of publicity.

"Aqua-sama, I, Hibiki Mitsurugi, will also cheer for you! Please make sure you win the championship this time!"

Hey, Mitsurugi, Aqua still doesn’t remember your name until now. Is it really okay to be such a bootlicker?
“Waaaa! Aqua-sama! When you win, please spread the word about the Axis Cult!”

Cecily, do you really want to promote the Axis religion? This town will become uninhabitable.

"give it to me!"

Aqua on the stage patted her chest and said confidently, "Goddess Aqua will definitely win the championship of this competition!"

Hey Aqua, is it really okay for you to be so confident? You should know that every time you get too carried away, you will bring bad luck upon yourself.

Kobayashi shook his head helplessly, hoping that Aqua could get a better ranking this time. After all, in addition to the champion's one-year jerky and bubble wine, there were also some insignificant prizes. These things would be nice for her as consolation prizes.

Just as Xiaolin was thinking this, he looked at the competition stage to see who Aqua's opponents were. However, he soon discovered something was wrong.

"There are ten contestants in total... No, there is an empty seat. It seems that nine people are participating in the eating contest."

Xiao Lin nodded.

These nine people don't seem to be that powerful, but with Aqua's hard work during this period, she should be able to get a better ranking.

At this time, the host on the stage began to announce.

"The food we're going to treat you to in today's eating contest is—this is it!"

As many waiters pushed up a huge cart and lifted the white cloth covering it, a large piece of fragrant barbecue appeared on it, and everyone in the audience cheered.

Cecily wiped the corners of her mouth and said with shining eyes: "What is that huge piece of meat? It is roasted just right and looks delicious..."

"It's almost as big as an ancient dragon..." Yu Jian Xiangye was a little surprised. He whispered, "With a size like that, even if there are a hundred people, they can't eat all of it, right?"

"Please cut it up and distribute it to the participants' tables. The rest will be made into jerky and given to the champion!" The host said excitedly, "Look! For a year, it's more than enough!"

Indeed, this ancient dragon was probably an adult, at least over a hundred meters long and nearly fifty meters high. It would take three or four years, let alone one year, to eat such a huge piece of meat.

But Aqua was lucky, the food for the competition was not something she was unwilling to eat. Rather, she had been eating grilled frogs and the like during this period, and grilled meat was her specialty.

As expected, after seeing the barbecue, Aqua said confidently, "It looks delicious! My enthusiasm is flowing! I have done so much special training, I will definitely win the championship of this competition! Just wait and see!"

She raised her knife and fork in anticipation, waiting for the host to announce the start of the eating contest, while the host looked at the missing table on the stage with some regret.

"Everyone has had their share of meat. It seems like one person is late, but the game is cruel... The winner won't wait, so we have no choice but to start the game. So... Ready, go!"

As the host hit the broken gong next to him hard, the contestants immediately stuffed their mouths with barbecue.

“I’m going to go!” Aqua said loudly, as if to encourage herself: “Let me show you the results of my special training!!!”

Then he buried his head in eating.

Mitsurugi Hibiki said excitedly, "She is eating at an alarming speed! She looks so beautiful while eating, you are worthy of being called a goddess! Come on, goddess!"

“Hehe, I expanded my stomach just for this day. My eating speed is different from other contestants! From now on, I just need to maintain this speed…!” Aqua had a good idea, but after a while, her expression turned a little gloomy and she said, “This is not easy either. It’s uncomfortable to eat meat all the time. And I’m starting to feel a little uncomfortable eating the same flavor all the time…!”

This is the shortcoming of a big eater. Sometimes, eating alone does not satisfy a person. Even if the food is delicious, eating too much will make people feel sick. However, Aqua is smart. She found a way to relieve her appetite.

"At times like this, we need to... drink! Flowers, birds, wind and moon!"

"Oh! Miss Aqua, the participant, suddenly started to perform a water spraying performance? It's really exciting!"

The host exclaimed, and the onlookers in the audience gave enthusiastic praise.

Xiao Lin was a little surprised and said, "You suddenly started to perform flowers, birds, wind and moon. Did you give up the competition?"

"No!" Yu Jian Xiangye retorted loudly: "I am moving my body to promote digestion and take this opportunity to eat more!"

“Ahh, what a sacred gesture… Lady Aqua, that’s it!” Cecily also shouted excitedly.

By the way, isn't this really an over-interpretation?

Xiaolin twitched the corner of his mouth.

Aqua also shouted: "After the exercise, my stomach has freed up space. I'm going to make the final sprint!"

But at this moment, there was a sudden thunder in the sky.

The host was startled. He shouted in fear: "What is that sound? It's such a sunny day, is there a sudden thunder...!?"

"My stomach is... so hungry."

A girl came over.

"No, it's the girl's stomach that makes the sound!" The host seemed shocked and shouted, "Oh, it seems that the last late contestant has finally arrived!"

"The last contestant!?... I have a bad feeling about this."

Aqua even stopped what she was doing.

The girl who suddenly appeared raised her nose with a happy expression on her face, "This meat smells so good... It's ready to eat, right? Then without further ado, I'm going to eat it!"

Afterwards, the girl who suddenly appeared ate up all the food at a speed as fast as whirlwind.

Aqua won the second place.

"...I didn't expect that we would lose even though we had such a big gap."

"This girl's appetite is really amazing. It seems that the amount she eats exceeds her body size... Is it my illusion?"

Xiaolin always felt that this girl had an amazing appetite.

"How could this happen!" Aqua screamed unhappily, "I've worked so hard, shouldn't hard work be rewarded?!"

"I said, why is she crying?"

The girl seemed to be attracted by Aqua's crying and ran over to ask Kobayashi.

"Maybe you feel aggrieved that your efforts have gone to waste, but this is not your fault. Anyway, congratulations on winning the championship."

"Woo woo woo, my premium bubble wine..."

As expected, Aqua was aiming for this thing.

"Bubble wine?" The girl looked at the bottle in her hand and said in surprise, "Are you referring to this? I don't need this. I'll give it to you."

"……Eh!?"

"A year's worth of jerky is all I need."

“Really? You’re such a good kid!” Aqua hugged the girl tightly, tears welling up in her eyes. She invited her, “Thank you, thank you! Let’s celebrate tonight!”

"Are you going to have a party? Great! In that case, if it's just a little bit, I can share my jerky with everyone!"

"How generous!"

Hearing the girl say this, Aqua also became excited. She said happily: "Then I will call everyone over, and let's drink the most advanced bubble bar together!"

That's how I decided to attend the party.

Aqua was moved to tears. She wiped her eyes and said, "Now that I think about it, the week before the competition, I really had to go through brutal special training every day... But I don't have to work hard anymore! From today on, I'm going to eat and drink to my heart's content—"

As she said, she ate a lot, but because she had participated in the big eater competition, she had a psychological trauma about overeating, so she vomited everything she had eaten and was severely scolded by her teammates. But that was what happened later.
