Crossover Anime: Starting with a Fusion of Master Chef, a Top-Tier Master Chef

Borrowing is much more acceptable.

After all, a piano worth 1000 million yen is truly unworthy of such a price.

Their relationship hadn't reached that point, and even if it had, she wouldn't accept such an expensive gift so easily.

"Won't you give it a try?"

Lin Youshu asked with a smile.

Touma's heart fluttered.

Unable to contain myself any longer, I sat down at the piano.

With her fingers dancing across the keys, music begins to play, showcasing her charm as a piano prodigy!

Lin Youshu leaned against the piano stand, looking at Touma's earnest profile, and his heart fluttered.

Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Principal Requests to Give the Teachers a Lesson!

If Hayashi Yuuki had a romance system installed, he might be able to see that Touma Kazusa's affection for him was increasing significantly.

Unfortunately not.

However, Touma's personality cannot be completely changed in a short period of time.

Fortunately, compared to her previous cold demeanor, she is now quite gentle.

If we persevere, we will surely see a completely new Touma Kazusa sooner or later.

Take your time.

Lin Youshu wasn't in a hurry.

On the contrary, he enjoys this GALGAME-style gradual progression.

Besides that, Lin Youshu was more concerned about: "Where can I get some experience to advance from a one-star master chef to a two-star master chef?"

After so many missions, he is now only 699 experience points away from becoming a two-star master chef.

It can be said that it's just a matter of one task.

However, it is precisely these 699 experience points that have become the chasm between one-star and two-star levels.

It tickled his heart.

He couldn't help but complain: "Where did the system go? Couldn't it just give me any task to make do? The TEBLE Championship is next month after my exams. Although the pressure isn't too great, every bit of skill I have increases my chances of winning!"

"Lin Sang."

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard his homeroom teacher call out to him: "The principal wants to see you. Go to his office."

headmaster?

Lin Youshu found it strange, as he had no connection with Suzuki Mikawa, except for a small moment of attention at last week's cultural festival.

What could it be?

With these questions in mind, Lin Youshu went to the principal's office.

"Principal, you wanted to see me?"

"Oh, it's Lin."

Suzuki Mikawa put down his pen, adjusted his glasses, and smiled, saying, "It must be strange to suddenly ask you to come here, right? Well, it's like this, your class's results at last week's cultural festival were very impressive, and you deserve a lot of credit, Lin-kun. Then some parents asked if you could give their children some private lessons."

"Of course, considering that you are in the process of entering a new school and have a busy academic schedule, I can only politely decline on your behalf. However, considering the parents' eagerness, after discussing it with a few teachers, I came up with a compromise. Do you think it would be possible for you to teach a class to the home cooking teachers at the school, sharing some cooking techniques to improve their skills or one or two signature dishes, and then they can pass them on to the students?"

What? !

Lin Youshu was taken aback.

Suzuki Mikawa summoned him, actually wanting him to teach cooking to the school's homeroom teachers?

hiss……

I didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Ding! Mission: The Master is My Teacher!"

"Option 1: Refuse. Indicate that you are busy and ask him to find someone else. No reward."

"Option 2, Agree. Knowledge has its order of acquisition, and skills have their specializations. Upholding the ideal of promoting Chinese culinary culture, teach the tutors at Minegashiro University Affiliated School an authentic Chinese dish! Reward: 700 experience points, 800 million yen, and a special item, a bottle of Secret Recipe Oil (ml). Secret Recipe Oil is a blend of various plant oils and dozens of natural spices, obtained through a special method, fermented with natural yeast for over three years, and refined through aroma extraction. Aroma +15."

ohh~

Upon hearing the mission notification, Lin Youshu instantly forgot his earlier annoyance.

What do you mean by "someone brings you a pillow when you're sleepy"?

He's just missing that last bit of experience to upgrade to a two-star master chef. Once he completes this task, everything will be fine!

Not to mention the other bonuses of money and items!

Secret recipe flavored oil, aroma +15, wow, this looks like a good stuff!

It's done!

Lin Youshu made a decision quickly.

……

However, it's definitely not something that can be agreed to so readily on the surface.

So Lin Youshu pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Oh, Principal, you know I'm in the process of getting into a good school right now. For me, academics are more important than anything else. Besides, what kind of student teaches a teacher? I'm not being modest, but you should find someone else."

Suzuki Mikawa cursed the little fox inwardly, but put on a kind smile: "Lin-san is too modest. Everyone has seen your level. Even Mr. Yoshino admits his inferiority. You are fully qualified to give a lesson to everyone. Please don't refuse."

Lin Youshu quickly shook his head: "Principal, I really can't do it."

It seems I have to offer some incentives.

Suzuki Mikawa waved his hand: "If you have any requests, please feel free to make them. As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely make it possible."

Lin Youshu asked in surprise, "Then, is it okay if I don't come to class anymore?"

Suzuki Mikawa almost choked: "Cough cough, you still have to attend classes. Although I know your grades are good enough to handle the entrance exams, just to be on the safe side, you should study hard under the guidance of your teachers."

Lin Youshu spread his hands: "I only have this one condition."

Suzuki Mikawa sighed: "Classes still need to be attended. How about this, at most you can be late or leave early in the future, and I'll let them turn a blind eye."

This is equivalent to giving him the same treatment as Touma Kazusa.

Well, they're both geniuses, so it's understandable that they're a bit unconventional.

Lin Youshu did not bargain further.

I'm already very satisfied with this result.

Mr. Lu Xun was right; the best way to open a window is to first tear off the roof.

……

The news that Lin Youshu was going to teach a home cooking class quickly spread among the teachers.

Some people are looking forward to it, some are curious, and some are dissatisfied.

"Is it that culinary genius from Class 3-A? Does anyone know his name?"

"Lin Youshu!"

"Isn't it ridiculous to have a student teach us?"

"Not necessarily. It is said that Mr. Yoshino once fought against him and lost to him. He even sent him an invitation to participate in the TEBLE tournament."

"Hiss, are you sure it's the TEBLE Chef Championship, the highest-level culinary competition in Japan that's only held once every four years?"

"Many people have seen it, how could it be fake?"

"I'm starting to look forward to it! You guys don't have to go, but I definitely will!"

"Who said they're not going? Anyway, it won't hurt to watch, it doesn't cost any money, and we can see if he's all hype!"

"..."

On the day of class, all the homeroom teachers from the school came.

Although there weren't many, there were still about ten people in total.

To their surprise, Yoshino, the head of the cafeteria, was also there!

Chapter 40 Are you a T800 disguised as a human?

Yoshino's experience and skill level in the culinary world are undoubtedly higher than those of these teachers.

Therefore, when they saw him, they quickly greeted Yoshino and then found a place to sit down at the back. No one dared to speak loudly, and the whole classroom was unusually quiet.

Lin Youshu arrived almost at the last minute.

This made some people frown.

"What's so great about being arrogant? Don't you know how to respect your seniors?"

"Young people these days are really no good."

"..."

However, to everyone's surprise, after seeing Lin Youshu appear, Yoshino, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly stood up and bowed to him as a junior!

"Lin Sang!"

It was absolutely astonishing.

Nani?

what's the situation?

Although it's rumored that Yoshino lost to Hayashi Yuuki in the food battle, there's no need to be so overly polite to a junior, is there?

Doesn't that mean Yoshino admits he's inferior to Hayashi Yuuki, yet is willing to be his student to learn even better culinary skills?!

hiss--

This has truly baffled the teachers.
