Whenever she thought about the video of herself shouting "I will definitely defeat Erina Nakiri!" and how it was still being watched repeatedly by countless people online, Tadokoro Megumi really felt that it would be better for her to just drop out of school.

"Ugh…!"

Sighing, Tadokoro Kei walked towards the Polar Star Dormitory.

Totsuki adopts a full boarding system, and all students are assigned to a dormitory. Megumi Tadokoro was assigned to the Polar Star Dormitory when she was in junior high school.

It is said that Polar Star Dormitory once had a very glorious history, and the boarding students there were many of the Top Ten Students of Totsuki. There was even one year when students from Polar Star Dormitory took up all the seats among the Top Ten Students.

Even in this declining era of Polaris Dormitory, there is still one of the Ten Greatests who came from Polaris Dormitory, and that is Isshiki Hui, who is ranked seventh among the Ten Greatests of Totsuki.

Logically speaking, it would be very stressful for Megumi Tadokoro to live in the same dormitory with such a big shot, but fortunately, senior Isshiki Kei is a... very "friendly" person.

In short, for Megumi Tadokoro, Polar Star Dormitory was the only place where she could relax - that was how it used to be.

Whenever she thought about how she would be ridiculed when she returned home today, Tadokoro Kei couldn't help but feel once again that it would be better to drop out of school.

——Although she was so desperate, Megumi Tadokoro was treated kindly by her roommates.

"I'm back, Tadokoro."

"How's it going? You must be tired after school starts today, right?"

"Welcome back! To celebrate the start of school, let's have a fun party together tonight!"

"Don't be my room anymore!"

"Woo woo woo, everyone~"

Megumi Tadokoro looked at her roommates with tears in her eyes. She was so gentle and didn't even mention the video. It was so nice.

"I will definitely defeat Erina Nakiri."

“Ahhhhhhhhh, why are you here?!!!!”

Tadokoro Megumi collapsed and screamed, looking at the man who suddenly appeared in her sight with despair on her face again.

I said seriously, "I was also assigned to the Polar Star Dormitory. This is fate between us! Let's get along well from now on. I will patiently teach you how to stop being nervous."

"No! I'm not nervous anymore. Don't torture me anymore, you devil!"

"Huh? Yukihira-kun? You're the one who uploaded that video?"

"Yes, Xiaohui said she gets nervous easily, so I tried to help her. Now she's not nervous anymore. Even when facing Teacher Chapel, she got an A."

"Don't mention it again, please."

"What are you talking about? I will definitely defeat Erina Nakiri?"

"Aa ...

"You're such a demon, Yukihira-kun."

Looking at Tadokoro Megumi's disappearing back, Isshiki Hui sighed, then patted my shoulder and laughed.

"This method is too radical."

"Strong medicine cures diseases quickly."

"I'm worried that Xiaohui can't handle it." Sakaki Ryoko said worriedly, "Won't the pressure be even greater this way?"

"Too much pressure can lead to self-destruction," I said nonchalantly. "If it were anyone else, this wouldn't be a good idea. But for Xiaohui, this kind of self-destruction can actually fully unleash her true strengths. She'll forget her identity as a student, no longer feeling the pressure to stay at Totsuki. In this situation, she'll simply serve customers as a chef. A Xiaohui like this is no worse than anyone else, and her cooking has a charm all her own."

"Yukihira-kun seems to understand Xiaohui so well?" Yoshino Yuuki said, touching her lips in surprise, "Did you know each other before? From what you said when you were talking to the transfer students, I thought you were a difficult person to get along with."

"I know her, but she doesn't know me." I answered this question first, then I said nonchalantly, "The transfer student just wanted to make a cool remark suddenly, don't take it seriously."

"That's a cool statement..." Isshiki Hui smiled, but suddenly his eyes turned serious and he said, "If you say something like that, it would mean declaring war on the whole school. Are you ready, Yukihira-kun?"

I asked, puzzled, "Does it require any special preparation?"

“…” Isshiki Hui was suddenly silent. Three seconds later, he laughed again: “It seems that those words were not a joke.”

"I never said it was a joke. I just suddenly wanted to show off."

I said lightly:

"As for the content of the words, they are completely true. But you don't have to be too sad. After all, I am different from you. I am the only one in the world who can cheat like me. You don't need to compete with me."

“Hahaha, I see.”

“What a remarkable speech.”

"You can't pretend you didn't hear it."

All the students in the Polar Star Dormitory were instantly enraged, looking at me with eagerness to fight, as if they really wanted to challenge me and teach me a lesson.

In response to this, I could only sigh helplessly, "Forget about competing with me, it's too much trouble. In order to stay in the Polar Star Dormitory, I made a pot of soup for Aunt Wenxu. There should be some left now. Each of you can get a bowl. If after drinking it, you still want to compete with me, then I will give you a chance."

After saying this, I left and went to take a shower.

"You're quite confident, Yukihira-kun."

The smile disappeared from Isshiki Hui's face.

"Do you think a pot of soup can destroy our confidence?"

Not only Isshiki Hui, but everyone was already feeling furious at this moment.

The dormitory manager Wen Xu, who had been watching from the sidelines, looked at the angry children in front of him and couldn't help but sigh with pity.

"It may seem bad to say this, but I advise you not to drink it. Otherwise... all your enthusiasm for cooking might disappear."

"Aunt Wenxu?"

"Mother-in-law?"

Everyone couldn't help but look at Aunt Wenxu in surprise.

Wen Xu closed his eyes and shook his head.

"I really don't know whether it's your luck or misfortune to be born in the same era as such an unprecedented monster."

Volume 27: Chapter : Hot Blood

Isshiki Hui was sitting on the floor with a decadent mood.

Not only him, but also Zenji Marui, Yuki Yoshino, Ryoko Sakaki, Shun Ibusaki, Daigo Aoki, Shoji Sato... except for Megumi Tadokoro who was lucky enough to run back to the room, and Soma Yukihira who caused such a scene but was taking a shower, everyone was either collapsed or in a state of decadence.

The reason lies in Soma Yukihira's cooking.

despair.

At this moment, they finally agreed with the nonsense that Soma Yukihira said when he was speaking as a transfer student.

No.

Now no one is more convinced than them that it is not just nonsense, but a bloody reality.

It felt like my heart was hollowed out.

Target?

That kind of monster... can be considered a target?

No matter how hard I try, no matter how hard I try, can I ever reach that monster?

——Even Isshiki Hui, one of the Ten Greatest Ones of Totsuki, couldn't help but have such thoughts, so you can imagine what others would think.

As Wenxu said, their passion for cooking has almost been completely destroyed.

If you simply eat such food as a diner, it would definitely be an honor of a lifetime, but as a chef, if you eat such food, you can only feel despair.

Can't win, can't surpass, can't even reach.

That is what existence is.

"Have you tasted my cooking yet?" After everyone in Polar Star Dormitory collapsed for half an hour, Soma Yukihira finally emerged from the shower. "Well, now that you've experienced the difference, then just give up on competing with me."

Isshiki's eyelids twitched, and then he suddenly gritted his teeth: "Who wants to...give up?"

"...Yes, my love for cooking is more than just this."

"It's just that I can't reach you now. There's still a long time in the future."

"Besides, even if I can't touch you now, it doesn't mean I have to give up... You said that, right? As long as I can still challenge you after tasting your cooking, you will accept the challenge, right?"

"Oh, yes." Yukihira Soma nodded and smiled slightly. "I admire your fighting spirit, so I'll give you a chance. Let's have a party. Shouldn't I, a newcomer, have a celebration? At the celebration, each of you will cook a dish, and I will taste it carefully. Not only now, but you can let me taste your food at any time in the future. I will taste it carefully and seriously evaluate whether it touches my heart."

“That’s exactly what I wanted!!!”

Their fighting spirit is burning, they are indeed the protagonists, they cannot be subdued so easily.

But this is exactly what I want. From now on I can eat for free every day.

At the following banquet, Tadokoro Megumi looked back and forth with a puzzled look on her face at everyone who was looking at Soma Yukihira with high-spirited expressions, while Soma Yukihira tasted everyone's food one by one and gave corresponding comments one by one.

Overall, there is no need to say much about Isshiki Hui being the strongest, but it only took him more than one second and less than two seconds to copy Isshiki Hui. It seems that the level of the Ten Great Masters of Totsuki is about this. Compared with Yukihira Joichiro's three seconds, there is still a big gap.

As for the others, they all completed the copying in about one second.

We should praise them for being the protagonists. None of them completed the copying in an instant, and they all have their own unique skills.

However, the one that I gave the highest praise to among all the dishes was Sakaki Ryoko's alcohol-rich juice.

It was unexpectedly delicious! And the tipsy expressions of Sakaki Ryoko, Yoshino Yuuki, and Tadokoro Megumi were a delight to watch.

As expected, a food anime is a food anime, and the Spirit of Spring Halberd is the Spirit of Spring Halberd. Traveling to this world will not disappoint me.

Well, my wonderful life of eating well and sleeping soundly started from here!

Admiring Ryoko Sakaki's beautiful legs, I began to think about whether I should use these legs tonight. Yes, as I was looking at them, I suddenly became interested. I just do whatever I want.

At this moment, Isshiki Hui, the only one who hadn't passed out from the juice and was sitting cross-legged with his head bowed, suddenly asked, "With such ability, why do you need to come to Totsuki to study?"

I casually replied, “There are many beautiful women here.”

"...What a simple and unpretentious reason."

Isehui smiled bitterly.

"Is there no other reason besides this?"

"Is having a very two-dimensional feel a reason?"

"A two-dimensional feeling?"

"Think about it, a school where cooking determines everything, and the ten strongest students even have power over the lecturers. Doesn't this setting feel very 2D?"

“…Now that you mention it, it does seem so.”

"Erina Nakiri is a tsundere young lady, Akane Kubo Momo is a legitimate lolita, Megumi Tadokoro is a pure and beautiful girl, and even you, Isshiki-senpai, who likes to wear nude aprons...you are simply a living anime!"

I smiled softly.

"As a homebody, this kind of school is really something I love."

"I see. You came to this school with a playful mindset." Isshiki Hui gave an even more wry smile. "I can't sense your love for cooking. How can you be so strong?"

"By cheating, of course."

"Cheating?"

"It would be too much trouble to start explaining, so forget it. It's not a normal way to become stronger anyway." I looked at Isshiki Hui and said calmly, "Like I said, there's no need to compare yourself to a cheater like me—you've already lost the moment you had that thought."

After all, no matter how much stronger you become, once I take one look at your strength, it’s mine.

Yes, my copying ability can be updated.

For example, if I copy Isshiki Hui's cooking skills now, then in the future, no matter how much stronger Isshiki Hui's cooking skills become, I can update them by copying them again and update his stronger strength to myself.

Not only can the copying of abilities be updated, but also the copying of characters can be updated. For example, I have copied Emilia now, and if the original Emilia becomes stronger in the future, I can update her stronger strength to the copy by copying her again.

Faced with such a cheating person like me, the idea of challenging me was actually stupid.

"I don't think you're lying, but I can't just give up." Isshiki Hui said seriously, "If I choose to give up the challenge when you have no passion for cooking, then my life will be over."

"That's good too."

I smiled at him seriously and said:

"I just like your two-dimensional passion."
