Intense Training 2

The students were now riding on Velvet the Mother Snake to the Mors Mountains.

"So what's the ingredient this time?" Kirishima asked.

"Shining Gourami. A translucent and shining fish that is praised for its beauty. It is also known as the "Crystal Fish" due to its bright and gleaming appearance." Aoyama said.

"But we need to go through Mors Mountains to get to it." Hitoshi explained.

"Its a natural region of tall mountains that reach an elevation of 15,000 meters making it the 5th tallest mountain in the world.  There are over 1000 rivers and lakes in the Mors Mountain region." Pony smiled.

"But at its base are the dreaded Death Falls, one of the most hazardous locations ever. Water pours down at a rate of 1 trillion liters per minute, and the waterfall is 1 kilometer wide. It is said no matter how many missiles you fire into it, not one will make it through. The water is also filled with rocks and sand making it even more dangerous. It also causes the water below to turn like a giant washing machine, ripping apart anything inside it. It is said anything, man or beast, that is caught inside will be smashed into unrecognizable pieces. Some people even call it the Executioner Falls." Izumi said.

"Let me guess. The Shining Gourami are in a cave behind it." Kaminari said nervously.

Seraphina nodded. "It has been tradition to train under a waterfall, but this time we'll be training against it."

Soon, the students made it to Death Fall, amazed of its sheer power.

"Now this looks like a challenge!" Katsuki smirked like a madman.

The students also relied on each other again as they went through the waterbombs and Kirishima got better control of his mutation.

Seraphina smiled as their teamwork process flowed as easy as breathing.

Making it to the cave, and with Koda's help, the students got some Shining Gourami.

The taste, with the Melk Stardust and the Mors Oils, made it a delicious fried food.

After another day break, their next target was Meteor Garlic.

But this time they headed for the city.

"So are target is in a city now? What is it?" Sero asked, confused why they had to dress nicely.

"Our next target is Meteor Garlic. A rare and mysterious plant that is said to only grow where meteors have fallen on, but even then, only very rarely. The moment the plant starts to grow, it absorbs all the nutrients in the ground from the surrounding area. Due to the exceptional nutrients it holds, it acts like a very powerful stimulant that is strong enough to make anyone who eats it, power up and go nonstop all day and all night for a whole month without taking a single break. There are some restrictions from the "Eight Gourmet Laws" placed on this ingredient, likely due to the effects it has on the body. But it's so rare you don't see it on the market." Izumi said.

"Wait, won't we be in trouble since it's restricted?" Jiro asked.

"Normally, but Seraphina got special permission as we need it for training." Tokoyami explained. "Its an ingredient that can't be retrieved by normal methods. The reason is because the locations it grows at is almost entirely random. Because of that, it's capture level is 93."

"WHOA! ALMOST A HUNDRED!" Tetsutetsu yelled.

"But to obtain this one, we need to beat the boss of the Gourmet Casino. It's been ranked as the best Casino in the world and boasts the largest size and ability to attract customers. The casino space, which comprises 20% of that, is said to have 100 trillion yen being exchanged each day. In the city, there are top-level 10-star hotels and restaurants all lined up side by side." Izumi said.
