Chapter 41: The role of a head chef (3)

It is does not belong to me. It is translated by KobatoChanDaiSuki

Anderson could only wonder. Was he going to refuse or not? But looking at Jacob's eyes, it was obvious that even if he did refuse, he was going to be taken by force. And if that did happen, he would only hurt his teammate from the start and waste a forceful move.

In the end, it seemed that he didn't have the right to refuse. Anderson moved. Jacob laughed and shook Anderson's hands.

"Thank you for coming."
".......Who are you going to pick next?"
"Let's think about that after looking at who Kaya chooses."

They both directed their eyes to Kaya.

Kaya was looking with a complicated face to the people that were in front of her. If she had to choose someone she was close with, then those will only be Chloe and Marco. Kaya hesitated for a minute and opened her mouth.

"Chloe. Come here please."
"Whew. Thanks."

Chloe let out a relieved sigh and walked towards her. But the one left was Marco. He sent a nervous expression. However Jo Minjoon didn't worry. Because Marco's skills weren't properly revealed until now. Because the other participants only knew that Marco had a little skill in baking. So he thought that there would be no way Jacob was going to pick Marco.

"Marco. I will be grateful if you come."

So at Jacob's words, Jo Minjoon couldn't help but get surprised. He had never imagined that Jacob would actually choose Marco. And that was the same for Marco. He couldn't do anything and just stared at him.

However, Marco's decision was already decided. He forced a smile and walked towards Jacob. Although Jacob could take him by force, it wasn't a good thing to decline. In the first place, even if he didn't have the right to take him forcefully, Marco was a person that didn't know how to decline to a person that said that wanted him.
'If things are like this, then the forceful move has no meaning.'

Jo Minjoon let out a sigh. Well, didn't the judges also know of that and gave him that right on purpose? Because all of the skilled chefs couldn't be gathered in Kaya's team.

When the sixteen people found their own teams, there was no one that declined the proposal. Kaya picked from the participants that chose her, and Jacob had the forceful move so they didn't think of declining.

It was a bit unfortunate for those that didn't wish to be on Jacob's team, but in the end, it was a good result. At least, they didn't get hurt, and could balance the overall skills.

Emily opened her mouth.

"Good. The teams are decided. Then, I will now announce the theme of the mission. This mission....."

Emily paused. But nobody was curious about what she would say next. Because it was really obvious. When they split in two, they could only think of one reason for that. Emily laughed as if it wasn't fun and said.

"Well. Everybody should have expected it. It's a full course. Saying it in french, it would be a . But of course, there's no need to make it only with french dishes. You have to make a full course that's similar to haute cuisine."

Nobody got surprised. They just let out a sigh or looked at Emily with an excited face as if they had known all along. Jo Minjoon was one of the excited people. Full course. Haute cuisine. All of that was a chef's romance.

Emily continued speaking.

"Of course, I won't ask of you to design your menu and prepare right now. The time limit is tomorrow. Consult with your teammates and design your menu. And there's one thing you should keep in account. We aren't going to be the judges tomorrow, but you have to set your dishes for a total of forty people, all from different social standings. The losing team will do the eliminating mission, and three of those will leave Grand Chef's house."
