-With Akiro-

You know, it is tiring that you told me that the quest is supposed to be a group effort. But now I'm playing it solo and those ingredients are really hard to find huh.  Akiro thought as he slices his ingredients.

-Flashback: the time when Inui started answering Akiro's question -

"Ding! The task is generated and your task is to make a Japanese main dish with the ingredients from the area. The reward is 1000 shop points and failure leads to expulsion and cannot use the system for 5 years." Said the system.

Well, I'll try my best. But really the punishment is too harsh. Akiro thought.

"Just start doing it already!" Said the system.

Ok, ok. Akiro thought.

As Inui stop talking, Akiro started to run out to the area and started hunting. As he hunts he got chased by bees and got bullied by chickens.

-End of Flashback-

Yeah, I almost got stung didn't I? Akiro thought.

Soma and Takumi are going to have a cook-off and saw Akiro. In the end, they dragged Akiro to do this cook-off but surprisingly there is no system alert. Akiro started prepping his chicken with incredible speed.

-With Lan- 

"So, what things you need me to prep? Arato-san. We are doing Seafood Stew." Said Lan.

"Clean the seafood and vegetables. I'll do rest." Said Arato.

"Ok." Said Lan as he starts doing what she asked. After a few moments later all the seafood and vegetables are clean. The two continue on cooking their stew and finish quickly.

"I hope Akiro-sama didn't do anything stupid though." Said Lan.

"So, why do you even think that so highly of him? He is not even as great as Erina-sama." Said Hisako.

"He is my master like yours. Your master is Erina, right? My wish to help him in any way I could. I am a butler to my master and a friend who walks beside him. I came here to help him and develop my own cooking so I can walk on the same path as him. That is my resolve and what's yours?" Said Lan.

"Heh, I think that master of yours is nothing compared to Erina-sama." Said Arato.

"Why do you think that? If you have seen his skills before." Said Lan.

"Because no one is better than Erina-sama." Said Arato.

"Look here the world is a vast place. There is always someone better. So, let me reword this. What is Nakiri-san to you and what do you want to achieve? That's all and we should be going now. I hope you find your answer, Arato-san." Said Lan.

Arato is just huff at this comment and leaves with the others to the bus and on the hotel.

- With Akiro -

The Aldini brothers are finished with their hunt and Akiro is giving his dish some finishing touches. As he finishes the dish and walked to the chef to give the dish.

"Please judge this, Inui-chef. It is Chicken Teriyaki." Said Akiro
