The Green Nitro reminded Yuuki of the difference between the Saiyans of Universe 6 and Universe 7 in the world of Dragon Ball—one was savage and brutal, the other a peace-loving race.

It just went to show that even within the same species, there could be massive differences. As for the Red Nitro, they fell somewhere in between.

You couldn't exactly call them peace-loving; their nature was quite ferocious. But you couldn't call them purely savage either, as some of them were capable of coexisting peacefully with other races.

"We might be able to offer some advice on the ingredients you're looking for. We've sensed certain ingredients that are impossible to touch or observe, but we can vaguely perceive their presence."

"So, we've pinpointed the locations of these ingredients. We're still researching how to actually interact with them."

After Yuuki explained that he was searching for these special ingredients, the Green Nitros gave their answer.

"Then I'd be very grateful!"

Hearing this, Yuuki knew they were willing to help. It might not be for free, but for him, searching blindly like a headless fly was far less efficient than relying on the Green Nitros.

Their technological level was even higher than the Blue Nitros', it was just that the Green Nitros had no desire to leave their own universe.

In fact, the Blue Nitros hadn't wanted to leave their universe either, at first. The only reason they had was because of NEO.

In the Green Universe, a being like NEO didn't exist.

So, although the Green Nitros had mastered the technology for inter-universal travel, they had never used it.

"No need to thank us. We have our own selfish reasons. We want to know what these ingredients are, and how to touch them."

"That's right. This is very important to us. We detected the existence of these ingredients who knows how many years ago—but our research has made no progress."

The Green Nitros were frustrated—

In the past, they had encountered tough technological nuts to crack, but "tough" didn't mean "impossible." With their endless lifespans, the Nitros had all the time in the world for research.

They had cracked countless tough nuts, but when it came to these special, dimensional ingredients, they were completely stumped. After all this time, their progress was still at zero.

So, now that they had run into Yuuki, who was searching for these very ingredients, they naturally needed to find out from him what they were all about.

"Telling you isn't a problem, but you might be disappointed. Even if I tell you, you still won't be able to touch these ingredients."

"I call these ingredients the Food of the Gods. With your advanced technology, you must have observed those massive, untouchable lifeforms before, right?"

Yuuki asked. Having existed for so long, it was impossible for the Green Nitros not to have observed the Gourmet Gods.

Although the Gourmet Gods existed in a higher dimension, they could still be observed on rare occasions.

"Massive lifeforms? You mean those beings the size of entire galaxies?"

The Green Nitros suddenly remembered. Over countless years, they had observed such massive lifeforms a total of three times.

They had wanted to pursue them, but the sightings were always fleeting.

The Green Nitros quickly brought out the three photographs they had taken over countless years.

"That's right, them. The Gourmet Gods. The dimension they exist in is higher than our own."

"The ingredients you can't touch are, in fact, the food these Gourmet Gods eat."

"As for how to touch such ingredients, you need something called 'Divinity.' It's a substance that only the Gourmet Gods possess. I'm an exception, and I've spoken with them before."

"So, you are destined never to touch these ingredients, unless the world itself is willing to elevate you to the level of a Gourmet God... But that's impossible. The world is like a massive system. As long as there are no problems, the system won't do anything extra on its own."

Yuuki shook his head.

After he finished speaking, the Green Nitros fell into deep thought. They could also see that he wasn't lying.

If it wasn't a lie, then Yuuki's existence was a miracle.

If it had been the Blue Nitros, they would have probably already made a move on him. After all, he possessed the substance known as "Divinity."

For the Blue Nitros, the perfect research material had delivered itself to their doorstep; they naturally wouldn't hold back.

But these weren't Blue Nitros, they were Green Nitros.

The Green Nitros were a peace-loving race. So, after learning this, they had no intention of attacking him and decisively gave up on their research.

After all, according to Yuuki, unless the world was willing or a miracle like him appeared, their research would never yield results.

Since these were the rules of the world, the Green Nitros would naturally follow them.

Yuuki couldn't help but feel a bit emotional about this. The Green Nitro race was a completely idealized, peaceful civilization—something that would never appear among humans.

Among humans, the vast majority might be kind, but there was always a small, completely different minority.

Human nature was just too complex.

Afterward, the Green Nitros gave Yuuki the star map of the Green Universe and the locations of those ingredients.

Yuuki was incredibly grateful for this; it would save him a lot of trouble.

"You're welcome, Mr. Yuuki. Although we know we can't prepare the Food of the Gods, at least we now know what it is."

The Green Nitros were quite philosophical about it, without any strong obsession. Now that they knew what the ingredient was, they were already very happy.

——————

Yuuki couldn't help but nod at this. Just as he was about to study the star map, he suddenly felt the void begin to tremble, as if the entire universe was fluctuating violently.

"Mr. Yuuki, have you observed anything?"

Other creatures would have a hard time detecting such fluctuations, but the Green Nitros could.

However, they couldn't find any changes, so they guessed it might be related to the Food of the Gods or the Gourmet Gods themselves.

The only one here who could observe those two things was Yuuki.

"There is indeed something. That is…"

Yuuki said, looking at the massive gate that had appeared in the universe.
