Ruckhardt and Stayhardt commented on the tasting.

Sion is impressed by the way they have thought of the menu.

And the result: .......

<>

The audience cheered so loudly that they shook the room.

For the first time, Reiko Jin had fallen far down in the standings. It seems that personal preference had a big effect.

(Ah, I guess my taste is not well accepted by the public after all.)

Jin was smiling bitterly. Then he smiled at Reiko, who was hanging her head, and nodded her head.

Reiko realized what Jin was trying to say and looked up.

<>

The first place was 90 points and the second place was 89 points, almost no difference, but it seemed that there was a slight difference between the two.

The next highest score was 88 points for number 2, Mary from Shu, number 3, Melanie from Eugene, number 5, Allen from Shireen, number 8, Clara from Florence, number 9, and number 10, Kathy from Florence. Number 8, Clark of Florence, Number 10, Alice of Rubina, and Number 12, Momoko of Rhodes.

The last-place finisher was only three points behind the first-place finisher, with 87 points.

The two other teams were number 6, Liddell of Sydney, and number 9, Silas of Elvis.

<!　The guest commentator, Mr. Zion, will give you a theme, and you will have one minute to draw it. All the audience will evaluate the result! >>

<<

The moderator, Mr. Luckhardt, forgot to say something, and the commentator, Mr. Stayhardt, added something else.

<<>

>

"What?

Jin seemed to be the only one who thought "......", and everyone else greeted this subject with applause.

>

All the participants went to the board at once. They moved their pencils at a blinding speed.

They all know Jin's face so well that they can draw it without even bothering to look at it.

<>

The hands stopped. All of them had finished their drawings.

<

The drawings are projected on thirteen large magic screens.

The audience will see them and grade them.

>

>.

(Really? ......)

Most of the people there were looking at the screen seriously, but only Jin looked down in embarrassment.

<<< Now, please cast your vote. ...... will tally the votes. Please write in your terminal ...... and we will tally the votes. .................. Result, here it is! >>

<>

(Please don't do that! ......)

Jin himself is already too embarrassed to look up.

<>

This is another subject that everyone knows. Everyone started drawing immediately.

Looking at the large < that shows each of them, it seems that each of them now has its own characteristics.

Theon utters the same line as before.

And he is right, everyone is good at what they do.

<<>

The scoring and tabulation is done in a short time and the results are announced.

>

A picture is projected on the large <. They were so precise that they were more like photographs than pictures.

The audience could not decide the best or the worst of them.

>

>

Sion pondered.

Jin also,

(...... artistic, rather than realistic ...... because it is a perfect copy, a reproduction ......)

).

Certainly, the painting of in this case was more like a scholarly illustration than an artistic one.

.

Zion, who had been struggling for a while, seemed to have finally decided on a subject.

Since no one has seen this one before, I have no choice but to draw it from my imagination.
