"Why would you bother to interfere if you're not even a member- UH?" Ikumi looked surprised for a moment. "You that transfer student, from the opening ceremony. You must be very confident in your skills to challenge me for something your not even a part of."
"Lets go with your specialty. We wouldn't want you to be without your meat. Either way, I'm going to Win.
"I don't think so" Ikumi retorted back. "When I beat you, you will have to leave the academy."
"But, I don't-"
"I'm in"
"huh"
"But, In exchange if you lose. You'll have to join the rice bowl research society"
"Huh?"
"Yeah, that's right" Soma smiled "You'll contribute to the growth of the rice bowl culture. Sorry if it isn't really your thing."
"You honestly think you can defeat me" Suddenly, she smiled "Attention everyone that will be all for today." She then left with a smug smile on her face. "Alright, I will allow you request for the food war theme. The main ingredient will be meat and we'll be making rice bowls. The battle will take place in three days." Was the last thing she said.
"What are you thinking" Said depressed guy.
"Well, thinking expensive meat is everything, is an insult to mom and pop dinners everywhere. But more then anything it would be a shame to see this place go."
"Soma, do you have some sort of plan for winning." Megumi said.
"Guess I better think of one." He said
"Oh dear god" Megumi did a hundred percent flip as she panicked.
"Huh, where did Kano go" Soma said notching that his sister suddenly disappeared.
Miyu was sitting on top of an unknow person while texting, when she stood up he disappeared. "There have been more and more outsider lately." Miyu's mission is to protect the main character from outsider and help him reach the end. Whenever she finds and outsider, she gets them booted out, well, at least the one's with hostile intensions to overthrow the main character.
This guy in particular was also said one of them. As things heat up Soma is going to be in danger of being sabotaged by outsiders wanting to get rid of him quickly. She texted her dad about Soma getting into a food war, when its already day 3 since the start of the term.
He laughed.
By the time Miyu returned to her room, it was already night. She, picked up her watering can and started to water all of the flowers in her room. After she finished and took a bath she saw Soma walking toward her.
"What's the matter" Miyu said opening the door to her room and he followed her in.
"You set up shop fast" was the first thing he said.
Miyu nodded her head and sat down on her bed. "So, are going to ask to borrow one of my samples." Miyu paused as she got up.
"Just a test." Soma looked at his sister.
"I had already texted dad about and asked him to wire some money for ingredients." Miyu handed him a credit card. "As for the sample, I will only give it to you when you figure out a way to enhance a meats flavor to A grade."
Soma thought for a moment.
"I won't give you any hints and make sure to spend some time in that research place. Remember a rich bowl is meant to be Fast, easy and Cheap." She said and after a while of processing the information her brother left.
After a few days passed with life continuing normally, Soma was at her room the day of the competition. With a meant dish, Miyu tried it without question.
"A Six out of Ten" Miyu muttered. "This is enough to beat your opponents grade A meat, you won't through all this just to get one of my samples. When you don't even need it."
"As you have said it was a Six out of Ten. I want it to go higher. Don't worry I'll make sure to save you a bowl."
Miyu sighed as she walked out to a locked cabinet and took out a vile. "Remember, only one drop. More will cause and in balance."
Later, at the Food war. Miyu sat on the sidelines with Megumi and the depressed guy, as her brother popped out he was booed immediately. Miyu was supporting Megumi.
'Their trash-talking is terrible.' Miyu thought, Miyu is around Rachel way to much, who often takes a condescending tone toward things. Watching them cook is also pretty funny to, Miyu wondered what would happen if Gordon Ramsey was here.
It got to the scene when her brother brought out some meat that was on for sale and everyone was getting upset again. The other two by her side panicked, Miyu just rolled her eyes. Finally they finished and are now presenting their dishes.
Ikumi Mito gave the judges an A5 grade beef cooked at a perfect fire's angle, the meat carved into beautiful flower petals, with each bite giving a sense of extra deep deliciousness. Coupled with superb garlic rice fried with beef tallow and butter, the aromatic fragrance will keep your mouth watering and wanting for more.
In a moment the judges went and had a foodgasim, since that is a thing now. Until her brother presented his dish. The Chaliapin Steak Don or rice bowl was his dish they where also capture by his dish. He won, and the Ikumi cried when she tried his and Shenanigans happen next.
'Ugh, can I go home now.' Miyu thought in a bored tone.
"Hey, Sis" Soma came to her with a bowl and handed it to her. He was more excited for her response.
"A Seven out of Ten" Miyu responded back and put the bowl down only taking one bit.
"What!" Soma yelled.
"Through the course of preparation, you move made several errors in timing, also you didn't used my sample to its full effect. You added it to the meat instead of the sauce." Miyu ended with that and complete turned around to head back to the dorm. Afterwards her days where somewhat peaceful other than her brother causing problems
