"Then, during the assessment tomorrow, you find an excuse to start an argument with him, and I'll take it from there."
Gin Dojima nodded.
Actually, Kojiro Shinomiya was quite a difficult person to deal with.
Although his Culinary skills had stagnated recently, it had only been a matter of the last year or two. Otherwise, more people than just Gin Dojima would have noticed.
The advantages Shinomiya had established before were still there—
—Given his talent, the only person at the Tōtsuki Resort who could confidently handle him was Gin Dojima.
As for everyone else, they were no match for Shinomiya. In Dojima's view, although Yuuki was a Third Class Chef, he was definitely top-tier among Third Class Chefs.
And under certain specific circumstances, even he couldn't compare to Yuuki's dishes—for instance, purely fire-based cuisine...
Purely in terms of fire control, without considering other aspects, Yuuki was invincible—If Yuuki utilized this advantage then, defeating Kojiro Shinomiya shouldn't be difficult.
....
After the two discussed the plan, Yuuki left. After waiting a short while back at the dorm, everyone finally arrived.
"SO delicious! As expected of Yuuki and Alice! I want privileges like this too!"
In a private dining room at the restaurant, the Polar Star residents were enjoying their meal.
With two people—Yuuki and Alice Nakiri—possessing special privileges, at a place like the Tōtsuki Resort, they could enjoy any service available.
Yoshino Yuki, her eyes welling up with emotion, savored the dish before her and sighed. Right now, the other students were still struggling, making their own meals.
They were already exhausted after a whole day's work, finally getting a chance to rest—yet, they had to prepare dinner themselves!
Many of the students, too tired to even move, just ate some fruits and vegetables before going to bed, too lazy to cook...
In contrast, the Polar Star group was here enjoying a feast.
The Tōtsuki Resort's prices were high, but the service was naturally excellent, and the taste of these dishes was fantastic.
"After dinner, we can get a massage or maybe play some games... although, seeing how you guys look, you probably don't have the energy left." Alice Nakiri said with a chuckle.
Looking at their appearance, besides Yuuki, who still looked completely unaffected, everyone else was somewhat tired.
After all, they had spent the entire day on a bus and then participated in two assessments one after the other—the latter one testing physical strength and speed.
Mental and physical exhaustion hit them simultaneously. Even though their Culinary skills were high, reducing mental stress, they were still quite tired now.
"Let's skip the games. But a massage after dinner sounds great. Then, sleep."
Everyone indicated they were up for a massage.
After all, they could just lie there and be pampered. But as for games, they didn't have much energy left and just wanted to rest.
....
After dinner, they enjoyed massages and finally returned to their rooms to rest. It had to be said, the massage techniques at the Tōtsuki Resort were indeed superb. Afterwards, they felt their physical fatigue significantly reduced.
Early next morning, Yuuki and the others' class began Kojiro Shinomiya's assessment.
"..."
Looking at Kojiro Shinomiya, who entered and directly sat down, Yuuki was rather speechless.
This guy was really something...
Unlike Hinako Inui before, who simply sat at the side and observed, this attention-seeking Shinomiya just had to bring a flashy armchair and place it right in the center, then sit there with his legs crossed.
It was an "I AM the master here" vibe. And honestly, facing most students, Kojiro Shinomiya truly was like a master—
—After all, whether the students here were expelled or not was entirely up to him.
However, it was a different story in front of certain students—like Erina Nakiri, Alice Nakiri, and Yuuki.
Although Yuuki wasn't a Nakiri, these graduates all knew what Yuuki's existence meant to the Nakiri family.
After all, the God's Tongue's drawbacks weren't a secret.
It could be said that angering Yuuki was even more troublesome than angering Erina Nakiri or Alice Nakiri.
Kojiro Shinomiya obviously knew this very well, so his gaze repeatedly lingered on Yuuki.
....
Just as Kojiro Shinomiya explained the assessment's content, all the students rushed towards the ingredient pile.
"Megumi, don't worry. No need to push and shove with them."
Seeing Megumi Tadokoro's somewhat panicked look, Yuuki directly pulled her back. Since he was going to confront Shinomiya, the result of this assessment would definitely be voided. So, there was no need to compete for ingredients now.
Besides, honestly, Megumi wouldn't be able to grab any ingredients anyway. Even though her issues were resolved, when she wasn't cooking, Megumi was still the girl-next-door type—she simply couldn't compete with these people in a physical scuffle.
Moreover, Megumi's physical strength was average.
Fighting over ingredients with them would only lead to her being pushed to the ground like in the original story, ending up without the ingredients she needed.
This scene was probably what Shinomiya wanted to see. It could only be said that his personality had become somewhat twisted...
"Are you sure it's okay if we don't fight for ingredients?" Megumi Tadokoro asked with some concern.
After all, this wasn't a classroom setting where you had multiple chances.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. They've mixed in some problematic ingredients. But with our Culinary skills, solving these issues is simple—" Yuuki reassured her.
The ingredients only had some minor problems—using them according to the recipe would affect the taste, but it wasn't a big deal.
So, solving this problem was easy for them—they just had to modify the recipe slightly.
Yuuki had come specifically to find fault, so he naturally needed to get the problematic ingredients.
Actually, at this moment, seeing Yuuki not participate in the scramble for ingredients, Kojiro Shinomiya's expression darkened.
The quantity of ingredients here was allocated based on the number of students. In other words, some students were bound to get the problematic ingredients.
And those students who got them weren't allowed to change the recipe. It was equivalent to directly eliminating those students from the start...
