Chapter 221 - Your the bad guy arent you... (1/2)
They enter Tsukasa's booth...or restaurant
They were greeted by a greeter
Greeter: Welcome Kobayahi-sama, today's menu is a nine-course meal, please go down this hall
The atmosphere...the setting felt like a high in. 1st seat cooked his meal in front of them
Megumi: Its like were watching a stage Tsukasa-senpai in his own world
Soma: There are only 3 tables
Rindo: Tsukasa handling all the cooking himself, The other staff only serve customers. So you need to reduce table count to make the setup work
Soma: he's handling a nine-course meal himself
Megumi: he must have a lot of confidence if he's taking on so much work
Sanji: (Or he just doesn't trust anyone...)
Rindo then confirms he was worried so much he would be unable to cook
The meal is presented to them and Soma and Megumi are in Awe of the food but Sanji felt something different
Sanji: (its good...he has a natural talent but it lacks something...)
Rindo notices Sanji's expression: what's wrong...oh you felt that too
Sanji: yeah...he didn't put his passion into his dish...
Tsukasa comes by and says: I don't need to put passion in my food. My work involves erasing all evidence of my involvement in the dish. I focus only on the quality of the ingredients and enhancing them, but paradoxically, that work involves expressing myself in the dish, that defines my cooking...well please enjoy my cooking
Sanji: I have a feeling our cooking path don't mess
Rindo: hmm...well gourmands have described him as someone who kneels before all ingredients and dedicates himself and his pride onto them. The white knight of the table...doesn't that sound cool haha but you know who has another cool name
She points to Sanji
Soma and Megumi didn't know his nickname
Rindo: he is known to be the most ruthless chef. one whose food may break you. The food is so good that it's evil. if you eat his cooking all food will taste bad after The white-haired devil
-----------------------
Sanji had separated from the trio and headed first to see his girls
As he entered he saw his maids greeting him with a smile that wasn't a smile...it looked like she wanted to kill someone. it was the blond maid stacy
Sanji: stacy, how are things
Stacy: oh its your young master
she seemed brighter when she saw it was him.
Stacy: f.u.c.k, things are rocking but I'm tired as hell
Sanji: i'll give you a massage later then
Stacy: huh, REALLY, then I'll take you up on it. No take backs alright
Someone coughs and her expression changed and she told him where the others were
Sanji sees Anna and Eri and walks up to them
they see him and ran over to him and hugged him
Anna/Eri: papa
They start telling Sanji about there day and saying how good of help they were
Sanji: that's good.... but its getting late you two should get some sleep...
Sanji had Jinchu Lee, Stacy (Eri's maids) and Roberta (Anna's maid) take them back home
Sanji went to the kitchen and saw Alice cooking
Sanji: Milady!
Alice: oh, hi...tired...so tired. your so mean. I can't believe you left me to do all this work. What kind of servant are you
Grayfia: yes, he is a poor excuse for a servant
Sanji: geese you two are as brutal as always. but...if I was here... I'd just fan over Anna and Eri...
--------------------------
Erina POV
I still am shocked about him...I always was able to beat Alice in everything but, I guess she beat me in something
I was hoping a chance to talk to him but he seemed to avoid me...maybe he has forgotten about our promise...but then why did he lead me on all these...no I told him that I didn't like him...but he should have known better...maybe he was just fooling around...
Hisako: Miss Erina?
Erina: is there a problem
Hisako seemed to want to say something but shook her head
I still had reserved a table to him and Saiba-san hopefully they...
Suddenly we heard a knock
Hisako: huh all the guest who have reservations have arrived...I'll go check
Could he have come...I hope he does...I mean...I would like to have a word with him...
Hisako: Excuse me sir, This establishment is for reservations only.
her face then went pale so I went over to her
Erina: Hisako?
a man with slick black hair with a streak of white hair swept into the back. He is pale-skinned with black eyes and a notably grim-looking face. he was wearing an all-black outfit
all my strength seemed to have left me...and I could only look down
Man: Its been a while, Erina
Erina: Father...
