Entrance Exam part 1

Nakiri Erina, famed for her exceptional qualities in tasting food, has just expelled another student from Totsuki Culinary Academy. Also known as God's Palette, her face scrunched in disgust as her eyes shifted into an air of coldness, smiting the offender and their dish with a quick banishment from the Sanctuary that was the Academy.

As the granddaughter of Nakiri Senzaemon, the director of Totsuki Culinary Academy, she was given unlimited range on her powers, by having the ability of expulsion on the spot due to her high standards of dishes. No one in history of cooking has ever experience the praise of Nakiri Erina… 

save for one boy of the same age that satisfied her tongue when she was a child, Saiba Souma. To hidden knowledge, Erina had a small crush on the little chef and still did to this day.

Erina-sama, you have a meeting coming with the Elite Ten in an hour, followed by another meeting with Nakiri Senzaomon-sama, a thirty minute break, then followed by a two-hour session with your Research Society…" As Arato spoke, the duo were making their way to latest event on the agenda. The Transfer Exam.

As Arato continued, Erina flipped her hair with a dainty hand, before scoffing, allowing the aide to take a breath from her ramblings.

"If anything, Hisako, everything should be pushed forward an hour. The Transfer Exam will bring nothing like disappointment like every other time. I might as well not bring a "pass" stamp with me!" She exclaimed, clutching the a red stamp marked with the words "fail" and a green one with "pass" in her hands. Erina thought for a second, before shaking her head. "Rather, I should break it in front of the transferees to let them know that their efforts are futile."

Hisako could only wince at the harshness of her... friend, as they neared the exam site. Knowing Erina, she meant 100% of what she said. It was rumored that Erina was a sadist when it came to cooking, and anyone that was caught talking about it within her hearing range were quickly dispatched with a quick expulsion and eternal damnation. As they neared, the two could hear the excited chattering of the potential failures that were here today. As she made her way through the back to the stage, she made it an effort to clomp her feet onto the wood to catch their attention. It worked pretty well, as all eyes were drawn to her being. Her eyes caught looks of admiration and fear, as she approached the podium.

"Hello, potential students of Totsuki Culinary Academy…" Erina started, resisting the urge to roll her eyes. If one were looking carefully, they would notice the slight twitch of eyebrow as she continued. "My name is Nakiri Erina, your proctor for the Transfer Exam." She concluded. She paused to catch her breath as she continued.

"Your exam is to impress me with your dish using a key ingredient." She followed up by taking an egg from Hisako, holding it up. The air grew tense as Erina made it her motivation to deter the transferees by means of maliciousness. "Out of all… 300 of you, I will guarantee that less than 10 of you will make it." The audience tensed, digesting the words of the famed God's Palette with an unmatched seriousness.
