The Level Up+ System

"It's determined! The 2nd round was won by the number 4!" Say Event Host!

*(Applause sounds)

*(Applause sounds)

*(Applause sounds)

Dian smiled broadly hearing herself make it to the final round of "Yes!!" Say it in the heart.

He only needs to win 1 more round, with that, he will be able to earn 1 million rupiah later.

Dian was waiting for the next direction from the host, the old plate of spaghetti that he made just now looked clean empty on his desk.

That's because the judges liked the dish so much that they scrambled for feed for Dian dishes, they said if Dian cuisine is a rare cuisine that may be equivalent to a chef in a famous restaurant.

Even they had time to covet Dian to work with them, but because Dian could not arbitrarily decide, he just smiled in response.

"All right, then. Let's head straight to the final round!" Say Event Host.

The 19-year-old who was Dian's opponent before took off the stage with a disappointed face, Dian actually felt bad for her. But because it's a race, inevitably he has to accept it.

A stage organizer flocked to Dian's kitchenette and her former opponent to clean it up quickly.

Afterwards, they said that Dian only needed to stand still on stage, and wait until the next direction from the Host.

"Alright, since the kitchen has been tidied up, let's call the participant who won the first round before, participant number 2. Please come on stage!" Call the Event Host.

On the other side of Dian's kitchenette used by her previous opponent, a black-haired woman she saw in the early rounds walked up the stage and occupied it.

The woman has a beautiful face, her body is slim and well-groomed, and her skin has a color as smooth as milk.

Dian had not paid much attention before. But when he saw the woman facing him, Dian felt enchanted.

"OK, straight away, the Western food theme for the final participants is..."

Dian was again made aware by the loud voice of the Host of the event, he immediately patted her on the cheek a few times before directing his gaze towards the Host of the event with focus. "I need to focus now." Thought in the heart.

"Brake!!" Continue Host Events

Hearing that the dish she was going to make was pancakes, Dian slightly sighed. It was because he thought he would be told to cook the next steak dish.

Even though he knew there was a system that could help him, still he felt grateful that it was a dish he was familiar with.

"Event organizers please provide the materials!" Call an Event Host.

The organizers of the event came from both sides of the building and distributed the materials to both participants.

After it was done, the Event Host turned on its mic again and said. "Then let's start! Since this was the final round, the time limit would be reduced by 5 minutes to a total of 10 minutes! The participants had to finish their dish before passing it, so without further ado. Let's start the final round!"

*(Applause sounds)

*(Applause sounds)

*(Applause sounds)

Dian immediately started by looking at the ingredients, after a while. A picture of the pancake cuisine he was about to make appeared in his mind.

"Okay, let's get started!" Dian said excitedly.

Dian also started by taking wheat flour, butter milk, and 4 eggs. He then mixed all the ingredients in one container and stirred it evenly.

After that, he added cinnamon powder, powdered ginger, and extra vanilla, then stirred it again until evenly distributed.

He did not forget also to add baking soda and baking powder, because that is what makes the pancake batter soft.

"Yosh after this.." Dian took the pot and put it on the stove.

Dian lit the fire under it, and put butter on it to melt it.

He then waits until there are small bubbles on the dough that indicate that it is ripe. While waiting, Dian poured milo powder and strawberry pieces as a topping in it.

He then turned the dough to ripen evenly after engaging the small bubble, and turned off the pan afterwards so that the pancake batter was not damaged. Because pancake batter is quite sensitive to hot temperatures.

After that, Dian repeated the process for 5 times to make 5 pancakes, and put them on 3 different dishes to start putting the topping and decorating it.

Dian only added chocolate jam and sprinkled Milo on top of his pancakes as a topping, he then also poured a little on the sidelines of the plate to make it look elegant.

After doing that to his 3 plates, time ran out. Dian was grateful that he was not short on time.

The fragrant aroma of pancake baked dough meets around the stage even inviting the audience outside the event to come watch out of curiosity. The audience this time is more rame than ever.

Dian glanced at the opponent's table next to her, and the woman who was her opponent just sat speechless while looking towards her pancake batter with a serious face.

The host immediately turned on the mic to announce the theft. "Time is up! Then let's do the final judging to determine who will win 1 million rupiah!"

The audience applauded in response to the host's remarks, the three judges who were judges in the previous round went upstairs from the right side of the stage with smiles on their faces.

"Then the jurors, where are you going to start judging?" Ask Event Host.

After 3 judges discussed for a while, they decided to judge number 4 first.

"We think we'll judge number 4 first, because we're already interested in the smell." Jury 1 (male)

"Yes, the spaghetti dish he made earlier was also so amazing that it made me feel in love with his cooking." Jury 2 (woman)

"Woahhh, the number 4 participant has a golden sign that he will be the winner! But who knows? The judging process will begin!" Say Event Host.

Juror 1,2,3 came to Dian's table and looked at the three plates containing 2 layers of pancakes that Dian had made before.

They are still fascinated by the way Dian's amazing dishes are arranged, they start by taking a small spoon and cutting a small pancake batter into their mouths.

Their reaction was as excessive as before, they were very happy to have tried Dian dishes this time.

"What a son! that's incredible!" Jury 1 (male)

"Hummm.I'm so grateful that I was chosen as a judge in this race!" Jury 2 (Female)

"Son, you have the potential to be a famous chef, no. You will definitely become a famous chef!" Jury 3 (Male)

Hearing all the jury dates on her positive, Dian politely lowered her head. "Thank you." Her speech.

He screamed very loudly in his heart for joy. The judges finished all the pancake dough he made and walked straight to the next table to continue the assessment.

"Then let's see how the jury reacts on the 3rd participant's table!" Say Event Host.

The three judges looked towards the pancake batter that the number 3 participant made. They immediately took a small spoon and put a small batter of pancakes into their mouths.

"Uhmh! It's!" Juror 1 was surprised.

"Taste, delicious!" Jury 2

"Hmm-hmm.lumayan, this can be said to be the artificial chef pro." Jury 3.

The number 3 bowed his head hearing the three jurors make positive comments to him. "Thank you very much."

"Woahhh, participant number 3 also no less get positive comments from the judges! who will win the game this time and bring home 1 million rupiah?!" Say Event Host.

The atmosphere between the stage and the audience was calm, they were curious about who the winner was in this race.

Dian was inevitably also worried, it was because the response given by the jury was equally positive for both participants.

"Then, let's hear the final verdict from the judges! Jury, who do you think deserves to win this race?" Ask Event Host.

The judges discussed for a while, and after 3 minutes, they took a mic from the show host and said.

"We had a discussion, and we think both are very good both in terms of technique and taste. It's a difficult decision to choose yet..."

After a while, juror 1 resumed his talk.

"We consider that the number 4 player won this match!"
