Chapter 59: Mimasaka's Mentor

[3rd Person's Point of View]

"Mimasaka." you yelled.

"Yeah!" Mimasaka yelled back. "I don't know about that Tsukasa-senpai!" Mimasaka yelled then tossed a jar of brown liquid to Kuga which he caught.

"We're allowed to help our other teammates with their preparations. That's one of the rules in a Team Shokugeki, isn't it?" Mimasaka asked.

"Good work, Mimasaka-chin." Kuga said while holding a paper full of tea leaves.

"Mimasaka used his Trace on Kuga-senpai, even though he's our ally." Taku said.

"Go, Perfect Tracer Mimasaka Subaru!"

Mimasaka then strike a peace pose imitating Kuga. "Heyo, heyo, heyo!" he called out mimicking Kuga's happy-go-lucky voice. "Today's the day I'm finally gonna show that Tsukasa who's boss."

"Yeah, please don't." Kuga said while looking very serious. 

"But good work, Mimasaka-chin!" he said using his happy-go-lucky voice

"But good work, Mimasaka-chin!" he said using his happy-go-lucky voice. "Kuga Terunori's just starting to cook!"

"Oi Kuga, didn't you say you want to face Tsukasa-san yourself?" Eizan asked.

"Shut up." Kuga replied. "Despite how I look, I'm an adult! I won't let my silly pride get in the way. My job right now is to make sure I completely defeat you Tsukassan."

"I see. So you have the resolve to win even if you have to abandon your pride." Eishi replied. "You definitely do seem a bit different, Kuga." he added.

"I'm going to end your undefeated streak here." Kuga said

"He's facing a considerable opponent himself. The current 4th seat of the Elite Ten, and the greatest sushi chef of the generation, Saito Somei." Anne said.

"S-S-Sushi Chef?" the Polar Star exclaimed. "Mimasaka-kun managed to pull a tuna card against a sushi chef?!" Megu asked color drained out of her body.

"He's the king of bad luck! Mimasaka has worse luck than Yukihira!" Yuki said.

"Why are you guys surprised?" you asked then Yuki shook you.

"Why aren't you surprised?! / Yeah yeah! / Did you know that he's a sushi chef?"

"Somei-nii is my cousin." you replied.

"EHHHH?!" they yelled in unison.

"We're not really close those, right Somei-nii?" you asked. Somei then grinned at you. "Besides, look." You said while looking at Somei and Mima.

"Yeah, Mimaka looks like he has something up his sleeve." Soma added.

Somei took his katana out and filleted the tuna in an instant. While Somei was wiping his katana Mima imitated how Somei filleted the tuna and wiped his katana.

"Flash!" Mima said then continued to imitate Somei without stopping a second. "Perfect Trace Flash!" Mima said.

"When did he manage to raise the bar this high on his copying technique!?" Yuki asked which made Mima laugh.

"(Reader)-chan trained me well, right?" Mima asked while looking at you which made you sweat-drop.

[FlashBack]

"Put everything to it! Do it like your whole life's riding it." you said and slapped the table.

"Y-Yes!" Mimasaka replied saluting while you laughed evilly.

[End of FlashBack]

"Ehh..." / "I don't know what to feel." / "Neither do I know how to react."

"I don't know whether I should be proud or what." You said then Mima gave you a thumbs up.

"Amazing! / Good grief, talk about promising. / I knew you'd come through, Mimasaka! / (Reader) thought him that Flash techinique? / Yeah."

"Min name is Saito Somei. I walk down the culinary path." Mimasaka said imitating Somei's voice.

"The way one learns the sword is through mimicry. You have excellent skill." Somei complimented Mima. "But though I practice bushido, even I would never use 'min'." Somei said.

"Uh, yeah, you do." Rindo said.

"You sure do!" Eishi said.

"Yup." Momo added.

"Yeah you do." Eizan said.

"You do." Megishima said then Somei looked at you. He looked like he was begging for his cousin's help.

"What? Are you expecting me to say you don't, when you actually do?" you asked.

"Not you, too!" Somei said. "Very well, but a moment please." Somei said and filleted the rest of the tuna. He wiped his sword and gave it to Mima. "Use it."

"Your knife is not up to par. You are going to chip your blade. If you do not use my beloved blade Isanagiri, you go against my bushido." Somei said.

"There he goes again." Rindo said while stirring her pot.

"Saito's annoying habit has kicked in." Megishima said. "He has bushido on the brain to the point where he'll force it into anything."

"I thank you, now min Trace is even closer to perfection!" Mima said and accepted the sword. He then filleted the rest of the tuna like Somei did.

"Now that we are both done with filleting, the real battle begins." Somei said. "Follow me!"

"Of course!" Mima said while activating his Flash.

"Just like Kuga-senpai, Mimasaka is doing whatever he needs to do to win." Taku said.
