[3rd Person's Point of View]

You overthought too much last night so you woke up late at night. You made a cup of coffee and was headed back to your room then you saw Megumi standing

by a doorway. "Megu is something wr-"

"You should hear this well, Tadakoro-kun and (Reader)." Gin-san said.

"Ah, I already heard that but sure." you said then sat beside Gin while sipping your coffee. He placed a picture on the table. It was the picture of the quadro; Saiba-Gin-Azami-Saito.

"This photo was taken when you were students." Megumi said.

"I still remember it like it happened only yesterday. The shining star of our generation was undeniably Joichiro. By my count, of the 121 times he and I had a Shokugeki, I won 20 times and lost 101 times."

"Eh? / Even you Chef Dojima?" Megu and Taku said surprised. "You lost that many times?"

"Your rank in the Elite Ten is determined not only by Shokugeki outcomes, but also by factors such as grades and contributions to the Academy. Joichiro may have been number one in terms of culinary skill, but he was late on classes. Even after joining the Elite Ten, he ignored his responsibilities." Gin said.

"You can't blame Saiba-san, attending classes is boring." you said.

"I heard that you skipped classes many times! Are you sure you're Kazu's daughter?" Gin asked you which made you laugh. You then sipped your coffee. "Maybe you're Joichiro's secret love child." Gin-san said which made you choke on your coffee.

"Gee Gin-san just continue the story." you replied then he nodded.

"He was also known as an eccentric."

"Like peas in a pod, those two. / Like father, like son." Taku and Megu commented.

"Alike huh, anyway all of us met him Saiba Joichiro, the chef with his genius in full bloom." Gin-san said then you slapped the table.

"Based on what I heard, Azami-dono was a crybaby before?" you asked then Gin laughed.

"Well Joichiro was being mean to-- Hey will you stop giving off that vibe that you're admiring Nakamura?" Gin-san asked so you pouted.

"I find crybabies cute what's wrong with that? Boo Gin-san." you said then he frowned.


/A-N: I mean-- When Azami-dono was young he looks like a cinammon roll :<



"What's with you and your father's taste?" Gin-san said then continued the story.

{Gin's P.o.V : Flashback}

It was very noisy and there were party popper and confetti around. There was a banner on top of us and I was hiding behind Joichiro.

"Congratulations on joining the Elite Ten Council!" they all congratulated.

The girls then hurdled around us. "Kaz-senpai, Joichiro-senpai, Gin-senpai, you're both so cool!" they said.

"You've become the 6th, 7th and 8th seats just as you're about to become third-years! Well done!" Fumio-san said.

I was sitting beside Kazu who was drinking coffee. I feel exhausted then a girl served me a drink.
