"Senior Eizan actually knelt down!"
"But there's no other way, is there? That's the bet!"
"Senior Eizan actually knelt down to that transfer student!"
The students present were all in disbelief. The Elite Ten had always been at the top of the student hierarchy, and in the eyes of all students, they were high and mighty.
The existence of the Elite Ten Council also granted the Elite Ten immense power, second only to the Head Chef in the entire Far Moon.
But now, a first-year new student had defeated an Elite Ten member and made him kneel in apology!
This was truly beyond their imagination!
Tadokoro Megumi and others, however, were exceptionally excited.
"As expected of Satou, this is more like it!"
Yuki Yoshino cried out happily.
"Haha, Satou actually got ahead of me."
Yukihira Soma also laughed heartily, "It seems I need to work harder too!"
Erina Nakiri also breathed a sigh of relief, but then immediately, her expression stiffened as she thought of something.
In contrast, Eishi Tsukasa and others were a bit silent.
"If Eizan hadn't focused too much on making money, today's outcome might have been different."
Eishi Tsukasa said lightly, showing no sympathy for Eizan Etsuya.
On the contrary, Kuga Terunori felt a bit regretful, saying, "Eizan probably brought this upon himself, but this year's first-years are exceptionally arrogant. I heard there was also a transfer student who spoke shamelessly at the entrance ceremony this year."
"Is that so? Besides me and Satou, is there a third transfer student?"
Yukihira Soma asked with a puzzled expression.
Tadokoro Megumi and the others were already too lazy to comment on this.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
Eizan Etsuya knelt on the ground, his face already turning purplish-red, his fingers tightly gripping the ground, saying through gritted teeth.
What happened today was definitely the greatest humiliation of his life; it made him feel worse than being killed!
Not to mention, this was in front of so many students.
"Mm. In that case, I forgive you, Senior Eizan."
Satou smiled faintly and said.
"The matter ends here."
Senzaemon Nakiri stood up and smiled slightly at Satou, saying, "I look forward to your future performance."
"I also have high hopes for your potential."
Gin Dojima also followed, looking at Satou as if he saw his past self.
At that time, he and his Polar Star Dormitory companions also sought out Shokugekis everywhere from their first year, continuously expanding the Polar Star Dormitory's territory, unafraid of any challenge.
"Thank you, Head Chef, thank you, General Manager."
Satou quickly said.
"Mm. Get along well with Erina from now on."
Senzaemon Nakiri smiled slightly, becoming more and more satisfied with Satou.
Upon hearing his words, Gin Dojima and Chapel were a bit puzzled.
Senzaemon Nakiri laughed heartily, didn't explain anything, and simply left.
When Satou returned below the stage, Eishi Tsukasa and Nene Kinokuni had already left.
However, Kuga Terunori and Kobayashi Rindo were still there.
"I say, you're also good at Chinese cuisine, right? Are you interested in joining the Chinese Cuisine Research Society?"
Kuga Terunori, acting familiar, put his arm around Satou's shoulder and asked, "I'm really looking for talented people like you."
"Thanks for the offer, but I already have my own research club."
Satou said.
"Alright then."
Kuga Terunori shrugged, turned and left, waving his hand as he walked, saying, "If you're interested in the future, you can come and take a look. My mind isn't as narrow as Eizan's."
Satou nodded, feeling that Kuga Terunori wouldn't cause him trouble just because he refused.
Just then, Alice Nakiri walked over, happily patting Satou's shoulder, and said in an old-fashioned tone, "Satou, I really didn't misjudge you. To thank you for helping me save my research club, I agree to you dating Erina."
"My business needs your approval? And he and I have no relationship whatsoever!"
Erina Nakiri was furious.
"It's great that Satou won! Let's celebrate at Polar Star Dormitory tonight with Erina Nakiri!"
Tadokoro Megumi said happily.
"Great! Satou, remember to bring ingredients!"
Yuki Yoshino cheered happily.
"Oh? Ingredients? Can I join? I want to come to the party too."
Kobayashi Rindo and Alice Nakiri immediately came closer when they heard about ingredients.
Satou was quite speechless, but a lively gathering once in a while was nice, so he said, "Alright."
However, just then, he suddenly saw Erina Nakiri trying to sneak away and couldn't help but call out, "Erina, are you trying to leave?"
Erina Nakiri, who had just snuck out not too far, stiffened and immediately froze. It was a while before she turned around and forced a smile, "I wasn't trying to leave."
"Hmm, then let's go to Polar Star Dormitory to celebrate tonight?"
Satou said with a smile.
"I understand."
Erina Nakiri sighed and said.
Having defeated Eizan Etsuya, the proposal was naturally withdrawn, and Satou also breathed a sigh of relief. Then he returned to the mansion with Erina Nakiri.
As soon as they entered the mansion, Miltank and Chansey gathered around.
Combee flew happily in the air, then rubbed against Satou's face.
Satou took out some fantasy ingredients and fed them to the little Pokémon, who were all especially happy to get food.
Next, Satou and Erina Nakiri went to Polar Star Dormitory together and celebrated with everyone.
Satou also specifically brought a lot of fantasy ingredients. Everyone ate with great satisfaction, but Erina Nakiri was clearly preoccupied and remained silent the whole time.
After returning to the mansion.
"Erina..."
As soon as Satou spoke, Erina Nakiri jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and said, "I'm so tired today, I want to go to sleep right away."
Then she tried to walk upstairs.
Satou watched her speechlessly and continued, "Erina..."
However, he was interrupted again halfway through.
"Oh right, I want to take a bath first. Don't come in."
"Erina..."
"Speaking of which, we should make tags for those children to wear so no one dares to steal them."
"Erina, are you avoiding something?"
Satou looked at her with a half-smile and asked.
"Wh-what avoidance? What am I avoiding?"
Erina Nakiri's cheeks were slightly red, and she said very guiltily.
"Of course, it's what you promised me before."
Satou said with a smile, "I remember that if I won against Eizan, you were going to be my girlfriend."
PS: Happy Double Eleven.
Thanks to the book friend for the reward, but there's no nickname, so I can't thank you directly.
Anyway, thank you.
