Shinji was a bit nervous. Of course he knew that An-Chan was an excellent baker. Many years at Fudomine had given him a number of opportunities to enjoy her culinary skills. That said, he was unsure of this interloping baker challenging her at cake baking.

In any case, Shinji wanted to cheer her on as any good friend would do. Having Kamio help with said cheering would make it twice as good in his opinion. He held one side of the cake-shaped poster and nodded at Kamio.

“One... two... three!” Shinji said and held up the cake poster with Kamio so he knew she could see it.
