Capítulo 6: The Seventh Seat
After passing, Fumio's test with flying colors, Soma was now a resident of the Polar Star Dorm.
Right now, the man was in one of the other resident's room as he was invited to a welcoming party for himself.
"Glad to have you onboard," a cheerful orange hair girl spoke as her name is Yoshino Yuki.
"Never thought someone else passed Fumio-san's test so easy," a purple-haired girl spoke as her name is Sakaki Ryoko and she was pouring some drinks into a plastic cup
"Man, you just made one hell of a dish," a man wearing tank top said as he is Daigo.
"Yeah, One dish that blew her socks away!" a man with blonde hair commented as he is Shoji.
"It was nothing much," Soma said as he holds a plastic cup and was being poured a drink by Ryoko.
"Now that we all know each other," a man wearing glasses spoke before he looks annoyed, "Can you all leave?! I have a written test tomorrow! Get someone else's room, will you?!"
"Just give up, your room is way bigger than any of ours," a shaded haired man said as he is Ibusaki Shun.
As the group converses, Tadokoro came in with a bowl.
"I got the dumplings," Megumi said with a smile before seeing Soma.
"Soma-kun!? You entered into Polaris Dorm?!" Megumi looks surprised at Soma who was equally surprised
"Oh! Tadokoro! Small world, huh?" Soma said with a grin.
"Now everyone! Let us welcome our new member with cheers of joy!" a man wearing an apron spoke out as he is Isshiki Satoshi, a senior member of the dorm itself.
The gang started a little party of themselves as Soma was the main star in it.
They partied long as the moon in the night sky shines down.
Nearly everyone had fallen asleep except for Soma and Ishikki.
"Man, You guys party harder than my friends from middle school," Soma said while scratching his teeth with a toothpick.
"It's not surprising," Isshiki said as he puts a blanket over Megumi, "We always do this for a new member of the Polaris."
"Thanks for it," Soma said with a smile.
"Still hungry? I can make something quick," Isshiki said while getting up.
"Oh, sure. Thanks," Soma said as Isshiki went to the room's kitchen and started to cook something up.
After 20 minutes of waiting, he came back with a dish at hand.
"Here you go, enjoy," Isshiki said as he handed Soma the dish.
"Hmmm," Soma hummed as he takes the plate and grabs some chopsticks.
He took a bite of the dish as he felt spring went pass him.
"Texture is soft yet the skin is crunchy and the flavors meld together so fast." Soma said with a smile to Isshiki who smiled, "as expected of our senior."
Soma ate the dish as he chewed it before swallowing it.
"Now then," Soma said as he stands up and takes off the cloth on his hands before putting it on his head. "Let me make you one of my dishes."
"I'm very curious about what you make…" Isshiki said with a smile before his eyes glint seriously "…Soma-kun!"
"Just wait here, Senpai," Soma said with a grin as he went to the indoor kitchen counter and cracks his hands a bit.
As the wait continues, Ryoko, Ibusaki, and Yoshino wake up to a powerful smell.
"What's that smell?" Yuki asked while getting up.
"Must be Yukihira," Ryoko said while rubbing her sleepy eyes, "He must be still hungry."
"No, It's a cook-off," Shun said sitting up straight, "apparently our senpai started it"
"Really? Isshiki-san is the one who started it?" Ryoko asked surprise as the three watched Soma cook.
Fish meat being fried, vegetables, and herbs getting cut and minced, bowls were placed around as the scene was incredible.
"F-fast," Yuki said amazed at the amazing cooking skill, Soma was showing.
"How long has he been cooking for?" Ryoko said as she was rubbing her eyes again to make sure that she wasn't seeing things
"Done!" Soma exclaimed as he made four bowls and each bowl had a rice ball filled with green liquid
"Ochazuke?" Yuki said as she takes her bowl and looks at the dish.
"Seaweed Ochazuke," Soma corrected as everyone grabs their chopsticks and take a piece of the rice.
They ate the piece and instantly felt the ocean's breeze blowing upon them.
"The fish is so juicy and the skin is crispy! It's like there's more and more flavors, every time you bite it!" Ryoko exclaimed as she takes another bite and smiled so brightly to the delicious flavor
"Not only that, the fish has the smell of sea salt in it, making the fish taste even better," Ibusaki stated out.
"How did he do such a thing?" Yuki asked confused as she takes a bite of the fish
"Poele," Satoshi spoke out, "He made it with Poele."
"Keen eye, Isshiki-san," Soma said with a smirk. "I used Poele to make the fish's skin more crispy and fine."
"You learned this from?" Isshiki asked as he takes a sip of the seaweed soup.
"From a teacher of mine in France," Soma said as Isshiki was bewildered of the amazing flavors.
Isshiki and the others eat the dish as they instantly finished it with pure ecstasy bursting through
"Happy to serve," Soma said taking off his headband as the four had a joyful smile from eating his dish.
Megumi wakes up from her sleep as she rubbed her eyes and sees Soma and Isshiki shaking hands.
"Uh….did I miss something?" Megumi asked.
Midnight came as everyone left the large room in its giant mess.
"Let's get some sleep, I'm so tired," Yuki said stretching her hands up.
"We'll clean up your room next time, Marui," Daigo said.
"Promise!" Shoji added in.
Everyone left the room except for Isshiki and Soma.
Soma was cleaning his knife while Isshiki was throwing away some rubbish into a garbage can.
"Sleep tight, Marui," Isshiki said with a smile as he cleans up the room a bite while being quiet to its sleeping occupant.
"He sure sleeps well," Soma said as he stashed away his knife into his suitcase.
"Well, We always a party in his room after all," Isshiki said with a smile.
"I see," Soma said as he locked his suitcase and turns to look at Isshiki. "Isshiki-san, can I ask you a question?"
"Sure," Isshiki replied while throwing some cans into the garbage can before Soma's next word stopped him in his place.
"Did our small cookoff count as a Shokugeki?" Soma asked with a serious stare as Isshiki slowly looks to him. "Did it? Seventh Seat?"
Flashback
Soma was in the Nakiri Mansion as the man was playing a game of poker with Erina in her room.
"The Elite Ten?" Soma asked as he placed a card onto a stack.
"Yes, it's a council made out of the top ten students in the institute," Erina explained while placing another card into the stack and draw another one. "I am a member."
"Hmmm," Soma hummed in amusement as he got one card taken from Erina, "so this Elite Ten thing, is it a big deal?"
"It is if you want to climb to the top, that is," Erina said as Soma's hands wave around the cards in his hands before he took one card and add it into his hands.
"I win again," Soma said as he showed his hands and it was a straight flush
"Again," Erina said with her cheeks puffed and she took all the cards and started shuffling it
"so I can get their seat if I beat them in a cook-off, right?" Soma asked as Erina nodded while dealing with the cards.
"Correct, but only a few of the Elite ten members are in the school as some had business out of the country," Erina explained, "the only one who remained here is me and the Seventh Seat, Isshiki Satoshi."
"Hmmm, the Seventh Seat, huh?" Soma said while rubbing his chin before taking his cards as he looks deadpanned to his cards as all the cards, he has in his hands are just a bunch of fours and an ace
Flashback ends
"Maybe," Isshiki said as he puts away the trash, "but if it was a real Shokugeki, then I would've cooked up my specialty."
"So it's a no, huh?" Soma said with a smirk before the two went back to their rooms for the night.
Isshiki walks back into his room as he closed his door before falling to one knee.
"Not bad, Soma-kun," Isshiki said as he had sweat gliding down his cheeks, "Not bad at all."
He looks to his hand as it was shaking.
"Never in my life have I tasted such a dish," Isshiki's lips curved into a smirk, an excited smirk.
