God Tongue

~2015~

It was a sunny day out and I was called to Totsuki. I had to come over, but Gin offered to drive me to Totsuki Academy for the opening tryouts. I accepted and we were there in 30 minutes. My mom had to go to the doctor for something so she couldn't come to see me pass.

As we got there, Erina was waiting for me. It looked like she was in a good mood, despite hating me at first.

See, Erina was known in Japan as the God Tongue. The reason for that? She knows food inside and out. She was called that because Erina, like it or not, she knows taste and knows what kind of food was from to the prefecture, the district, the city, and more importantly, the country. But what Erina really liked to do, what she really liked to do was insult anyone who thinks isn't worthy of being a chef. I mean, she actually enjoyed it.

Erina was the God Tongue for sushi, rice bowls, meat, vegan and vegetarian foods, vegan and vegetarians were the best, and they always have been.

Erina: Hello Y/N. How are you?

She said, extending her hand, smiling.

Y/N: I'm doing fine, how about yourself?

I said, shaking her hand.

Erina: I cannot complain.

Y/N: So this is Totsuki Academy?

Erina: That is correct. My grandpa is the founder and administrator. I heard you were sous-chef at Gin's friend's sushi restaurant, am I wrong?

Y/N: Yes ma'am. Not wrong.

Erina: You seem to be very polite and respectful. I like that from you.

Y/N: Really?

Erina: Yes, but do not think I am nice to you because of Gin. I had doubts, but I proved wrong. You earned my respect.

Y/N: I did?

Erina: Yes. Do not be surprise if the opening ceremony a waste of time. There are usually wimps who are royalty in parents' chefs from all over world. Many come from humble beginnings or are stupid and lazy enough to be chef. You on the other hand are talented, but do not let it go to your head. Understand?

Y/N: Yes, ma'am, but how did you learn english? I thought you only spoke Japanese. No offense.

Erina: None taken. I learn from listening to Gin. He traveled to America before.

(A/N: Anyone who read the original should know that the English Erina and many others spoke was so bad, so, for this remake, I decided to make her English speaking ability slightly better than what I intended, same with the characters in this fanfic because I saw some people complaining about the way it was handled, so I thought I might do them a favor.

Also, soon enough, the original will be taken down due to stupid ideas and whatnot I had for it. Anyways...)

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Gin learned English, by coming to America and then Erina learned how to speak it by overhearing Gin. I like that! No wonder he spoke it pretty well. I need to have a talk with him about it sometime.

We came to the main lobby and we found Erina's grandfather, chatting with Gin.

Gin: Y/N!

Y/N: Hey Mr. Dojima.

Gin: Call me Gin. You remember Senzaemon-san?

Y/N: Yes. Ohayōgozaimasu.

Senzaemon: Ohayōgozaimasu.
