There was a period of time where Sui Xiong had noticed Fira Kenji.
That Pigman chef did not really have any special talent on his own. It was just that he had extremely good fortune. This was not long term, but it was extremely good at specific points in time. Such occurrences were not new, as one's luck usually was like the sea waves, high and low at different points in time. However, normally, one's luck was not so volatile. Those with better luck, such as Kabbalah, would generally have good luck most of the time. For those with bad fortune, they would also generally have bad luck most of the time.
Take Cambrona, for example. One may guess that his marriage with a goddess used up his entire life's good fortune, as his fortune in the past years was rather poor. Cambrona often met with issues at work and life. If not for his steadfastness and positive attitude towards life, he certainly wouldn't be where he was at now.
