"Well, let's save the games for later now let's go to work" Haruta left the locker room with her Filipina all over her body, the full body white suit "Everyone knows their own positions and everyone is clear about the order of the dishes to prepare"
Under Haruta's orders, both Isshiki and Kuga nodded their heads and moved to their designated spaces with their knives in hand, Suzaku on the other hand followed Haruta since his job was to support the black-haired man in the preparation that is to say that he was now Haruta's assistant.
Ogata stayed near the kitchen but in the space that Haruta had made for her like that there would be no problems and the flow of cooks would not stop.
Soon there was a small silence in the kitchen as everyone prepared the ingredients in their respective spaces, then the sound of the knives was highlighted in the place and soon the pots were ringing.
The noise in the kitchen increased dramatically and with it the pressure on the cooks, for Suzaku it was difficult to keep up with the rhythm and correct coordination with Haruta but thanks to the training he was able to keep up.
Inside the kitchen time passed with great speed, the elegant dishes came out the door supported by the waiter.
Ogata watched the whole process and witnessed the true skill of gourmet class chefs, she witnessed the skill of Tootsuki's ten advisers.

"We finally finished" Kuga dropped her body on a chair while fanning her face using a fan "All the dishes that Haruta-chin had on the list were complicated, it is fortunate that I had enough time to practice them properly"
"They were original recipes, you should be grateful that I shared them with you in exchange for coming here to help me" Haruta was sitting at a table together with Ogata who was trying one of the dishes prepared by the black-haired man.
Kuga kept calm as he rocked in the chair "I hope you don't forget that I want a shokugeki to take away your title"
"Even when Haruta-kun left school, the two of you are still as friendly as ever" Isshiki appeared from the locker room in his totsuki uniform "Of course now, if you allow me, there are still many things to do in the other room, after I'm all also an influential person you know? "
"Whatever you say, heir of the Satoshi family" Kuga only made movements with his hand letting Isshiki come out of the kitchen "I'll stay here for a moment, I like the attention, but I don't like so many influential people in the same place"
"I still have to wash all the dishes and I'm the same type as Kuga" Haruta moved and picked up some pots to take them to the wash, following Haruta both Ogata and Suzaku helped him.
Minutes after starting to wash the dishes, Isshiki went through the kitchen door again "Haruta-kun, they are asking for your presence, they want to meet the legendary Zao Shen"
Kuga laughed out loud "It looks like Haruta-chin will get caught up in big shots, this is Zao Shen's title weight"
"I suppose it's a deal that you will never know Kuga" Haruta scoffed before cleaning his clothes again and following Isshiki closely to enter the main room where all the guests had gathered.
Haruta could see a large number of people in the room, many were unfamiliar but others did not go unnoticed at the sight of the black-haired man.
Before Haruta could be noticed Isshiki made a si
Haruta followed Isshiki silently to one of the tables that were at the end, several people were gathered in the place "Councilor Satoshi I see that he fulfilled his task" Hearing the kind male voice Haruta knew immediately who it was, He unconsciously took a step back and clenched his hands tightly, coming into contact with Haruta's past was not pleasant but he also knew that the time would come to face all things.
"It's good to see you again Haruta, I can tell that your skills did not decline in a single aspect" Haruta's height only reached up to the shoulder of the old man, who kept looking at the black-haired man with a warm smile "I was worried about your health, if something had happened to you because of us I could not forgive myself. Of course I do not expect you to forgive us for what happened but I am also pleased to know that you are well "
Haru took a strong gulp of saliva before smiling "Don't worry about small details Senzaemon-dono" In the past Haruta only referred to Senzaemon as old man or director but he had never mentioned his name, this was not a formality but rather a that Haruta held a certain dislike towards the headmaster and sought to gain repudiation for having nothing to do with the elite ten, now that Haruta was out of Totsuki there was no need for it.
Senzemon's eyes widened slightly, he could understand the hidden meaning behind Haruta's words. I don't need to go back to Tootsuki to learn, calling the headmaster by his name meant that there was nothing I could teach him now.
"Your cooking lives up to your renown Zao Shen, it won't be long before the world classifies you on the same level as Ashura or the Legume Wizard" Senzaemon continued to praise Haruta's food before he turned around and introduced the black-haired to his acquaintances.
Haruta's eyes sharpened instantly when he saw familiar faces "These are Tootsuki's partners, the Takagi are indispensable in the school's technology, in return we function as mediators in other countries or other firms to carry out negotiations, I present to you Soichiro Takagi the current head of the Takagi family and current head of Tokunosu prefecture "
In front of Haruta stood a man not shorter than Senzaemon but much larger, with an elegant suit from head to toe, the man looking at Haruta as if he were prey.
Haruta stared at the man but unconsciously his eyes turned blue under the representation of Aahrtu, basically between Haruta and Soichiro an animal competition was created to see who of the two would dominate.
"You have really fantastic eyes boy, not many can stand in front of me without looking away when they first meet me"
"The truth is it is not usual to see someone who wants to scare me with their eyes" Haruta replied while shaking the man's hand but without losing his strength either.
gn for him to follow "Come on, someone wants to see you before everyone finds you"
