131 Oh Yeah!

Once Alexander returned to his kitchen, the staff girl who saw him was surprised to see him returning so fast

"What is that box?" She asked, as the overseer of his exam she had to ask.

"My ingredients," Alexander said as he walked past and took his tools out.

"From where did you get that?"

"Delivery service..." Alexander opened the toolbox and took out a knife and sharpened it.

The staff girl took out a book and wrote something, it was to record Alexander's actions.

Alexander opened the black box and took out the noodles that were sent to him, and to his surprise, there were additional spice and ingredients.

'Vlad... you're really...' Alexander thanked God for having such dependable men.

'Now...what kind of dish should I make? We are in Sapporo, one of the famous dishes is Miso Ramen, easy and delicious... let's go with that.' Alexander decided on the course of his actions.

First, he took out 4 eggs and placed them in a pot to boil them, and after boiling them he peeled each one and sliced them in half.

Then he cooked the vegetables, he started with the spinach and then bean sprouts.

Next was the Ramen tourn. The staff girl who was watching Alexander was fascinated, he was moving easily, his expression was calm and focused as if he is afraid of messing something which clearly would never happen.

Alexander added the ramen noodles in the pot to be cooked. After that, he rinsed it with cold water to stop the cooking.

Then in a large pot, Alexander added the stock, instant dashi and soy sauce. Bring to a boil over high heat. Removed it from the heat and stirred it in the miso. Then he tasted the soup and added an additional 1.5 tablespoons of miso.

And finally, he was done, Alexander ladled the soup into one big bowl and topped it with green onions.

"Now...are you the one who is going to judge my dish?" Alexander took the large Miso Ramen to the servant girl as she stood up and nodded in response

"Due to the lack of judges, some servants in the hotel have been given the authority to judge students and help run the exam." She said as she eyed the Ramen with hunger. Hunger was the first emotion that Alexander saw on this girl's face which amused him.

"Then, please don't hold back..." Alexander handed her the Ramen and she did not waste any time and took the first bite.

With no prior warning, the creamy texture of the miso assaulted her taste buds as she felt her self flying up in the cold skies of Sopparo but she never felt cold as her insides were kept warm by the ramen. Her cold expression finally broke and she smiled in joy as she ate more and more.

After she was done eating, there was a combination of cheese and nuts taste lingering her mouth reminding her of the heavenly food that she had just tasted.

Alexander smirked as he knows that his food did the work "Saiba Alexander, you pass the second exam!!" the girl said with a smile on her beautiful face.

"Of course..." Alexander said as he walked past her "There is still a little more on my station if you want a second." He said.

"Eh! Really?!" The girl thanked Alexander before he left the hall and headed to his room.

On the way, he saw a few of his friends still cooking with proud expressions. And before he could exit the exams area, he pumped in Alice and Erina who were taking the exam in the same area.

"Oh! you girls are done?" he asked.

"Of course!!" Alice said with a Victory sign, this kind of exam and schemes were nothing for her genius brain, she could see through their trick a mile away.

"Yes, I had everything prepared for me so i didn't take a lot of time. Since Alice finished a few minutes after me, we decided to go and see you, but here you are." Erina smiled

"We have until tomorrow, the teacher from before said that since there is a storm outside, we can return to our rooms until it goes away," Alice said as she rubbed her arms, it is very cold, especially since she is walking in just her chef uniform

"Great, let's go get warmer..." Alexander said as he took Erina and Alice's hands

"To where?" both of them asked.

"To my room." Alexander chuckled as he made Erina and Alice feel shocked but they could do nothing but just follow him.

The next day, those who passed the exam were given envelops that has a train ticket for the MoonShadow.

[You need to be at the station 10 minutes before the set time, the free time until the departure is yours to enjoy.] the officials said.

When Yuki heard this, she jumped high in the sky "Yahoo!!"

"4 hours of free time in this city!!" Ryuko thought for all the possible places they could visit.

"Oh! We can go see the diffrent food stalls in the city!" Soma dashed to the nearest shop.

"Wait for me, Soma-kun!!" Megumi called as she followed behind Soma.

"Yukihira you rascal, don't leave us behind you!!" Mito Ikumi dashed behind Soma too.

Alexander had Erina and Alice on his left and right as they watched everyone take their leave.

"Let's go see for ourselves, Hisako-san!" Takumi said as he walked away with Hisako's hands in his hand. Hisako hesitated as she looked at Erina who was speechless at what she has seen before she calmed down and smiled at Hisako and gave her a thumbs up allowing Hisako to go with no guilt of leaving her duties.

Alexander and Alice were as shocked as Erina, their jaws were open from disbelief 'Since when everyone got this close with each other!!' they thought.

They Alexander, Alice, and Erina saw Ryo and Isami were the only people beside them as everyone was sightseeing.

Ryo frowned "Your gaze makes me wanna punch you in the face...and I am still in my passive mode." he said.

"Indeed, I can see what they are thinking and that makes me want to punch them too," Isami said before he separated himself from the group as he went to see some clothing stores.

Ryo headed north to look for the market.

"Oh yeah, I forget that everyone else had a life," Alexander said.
