After three years of dormancy, the Gourmet Tyrant was born.

Do I look like someone who doesn't keep their word?

"The future head chef and manager of Xuan Yu restaurant!"

"I will keep my promise when you have your own restaurant."

"As long as you can accept my food battle challenge at any time, I don't need a salary."

"This is just the beginning, don't get too cocky!"

Despite losing face, Shinomiya Kojiro remained defiant and continued speaking arrogantly.

Lu Xuanyu seemed to remember something and made a peace sign at Alice:

"Alice, do me a favor!"

Alice immediately understood and quickly pulled out her phone.

"Understood, understood. Lord Xuan Yu and Senior Shi Gong, let's strike a pose together!"

Shinomiya Kojiro wanted to refuse, but then he saw his hands suddenly being held by Dojima Gin and Donato Gotoda!

Mizuhara Fuyumi and Inui Hinako grabbed Lu Xuanyu's arms from the left and right respectively.

"What are you..."

Dojima Gin immediately said:

"Since we're going to take a picture to commemorate the occasion, let's have all the mentors together!"

"Everyone, give me a hand signal: left hand for paper, right hand for rock!"

Shinomiya Kojiro: "Five to zero, huh! Dojima-senpai, that's enough!"

Lu Xuanyu and the other celebrity mentors captured the wonderful moments together!

This is the meaning of taking photos.

night.

The crowd dispersed from the duel.

Dojima Gin stood by the window in the restaurant, holding his phone, and did not leave.

"That's how it happened."

"Commander-in-Chief, to be able to beat Shinomiya's chef at this age..."

"Lu Xuanyu, perhaps he will become the next Joichiro of Totsuki, no..."

"Perhaps his talent surpasses that of Joichiro!"

now.

The man who spoke with Gin Dojima was none other than himself.

It is none other than Senzaemon Nakiri, the Supreme Commander of Totsuki Academy!

Since Lu Xuanyu secured a place among the top ten students the day before his graduation.

Senzaemon Nakiri had been silently watching him all along.

Senzaemon Nakiri was not too optimistic about his challenge against Kojiro Shinomiya.

Unexpectedly, he won the victory with an absolute advantage!

"I just found out about this myself. Lu Xuanyu, like my granddaughter Erina, possesses that terrifying talent."

Hearing the voice on the phone, Dojima Gin's eyes twitched:

"You mean... the Tongue of God!"

"No wonder, no wonder they have such amazing ideas about the construction of flavor."

"Why wasn't this discovered before? And Lu Xuanyu seems almost no different from a normal person."

"Isn't the God Tongue quite picky about ordinary food, even... unable to eat it?"

Gin Dojima has a very thorough understanding of the God Tongue.

I learned more not only from Erina, but also from her mother, Managi Nakiri.

"It's not clear yet, based on the observations of the 267 people I've arranged at the resort."

"Erina knows that Lu Xuanyu possesses the God Tongue, and seems to be wary of a duel with him."

“I am well aware of Erina’s competitive nature among her peers.”

"Especially when they know that the other party also possesses the God Tongue, they will regard the other party as an opponent."

"Her reaction only proves one thing..."

　Dojima Gin now understood what this meant.

"I'd lose to Lu Xuanyu, and Erina's afraid of losing!"

"At her current level, she has no problem surpassing others of her age."

"Only Lu Xuanyu is truly lacking."

"How could the Tongue of God hide itself so well as an ordinary person?"

"They can still live a normal life with a normal diet..."

"Commander-in-Chief, if this is really possible, is it possible that Nagi...?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

If Dojima Gin could think of this, how could Nakiri Senzaemon not?

……

Inside Lu Xuanyu's presidential suite.

Tonight is my last night at the resort.

Having just achieved such a great success, it's only natural to have a proper celebration.

Because Lu Xuanyu had just finished a food battle, he wasn't asked to cook tonight.

Instead, according to the rules of drawing cards, the three people with the lowest scores are chosen to cook together for everyone.

Hisako Shinto!

Megumi Tadokoro!

Miyoko Hojo!

I'm honored... but unfortunately, I was chosen to be tonight's head chef.

After arriving in the kitchen.

At first, Hojo Miyoko didn't feel anything unusual, but when she got into the cooking mode...

It was obvious that the two women were secretly competing with each other.

Of course, they do have the ability to compete; they are all outstanding individuals with exceptional skills.

In order not to be left behind, Hojo Miyoko had no choice but to bring out her best Chinese cuisine as well.

after an hour.

The aroma of wine filled the living room.

With fine wine, delicious food, and beautiful women around him, Lu Xuanyu was having a wonderful time.

"..."

Hisako Shinto: "Master Genyu, what do you think of the taste?"

"Is there anything else that needs improvement?"

Lu Xuanyu: "Add three grams less turmeric, and simmer for another twenty seconds. You can remove one gram of perilla without masking the flavor of the other ingredients!"

"Yes, thank you, Master Xuanyu!"

"..."

Yoshino Yuuki: "Young Master Genba, you actually beat Shinomiya-senpai! He's going to be an employee at your shop from now on!"

"Young Master Xuan Yu, if I ever find a restaurant that doesn't want me, could you take me in?"

"I can wash dishes and bowls; I'm very quick and efficient."

Lu Xuanyu: "Hahaha, Youji, how quick are you? I'll have to check you out when we get back to Polaris Dormitory!"

"..."

Miyoko Hojo: "Chef Genyu, is my spicy chicken up to standard?"

"Could you tell me more about your suggestions? They've been very helpful to me!"
