The listener of cooking, food wars x male oc

Follow my lead!

The next day

They are all standing in front of the dorm, all except Erina

Ren is leaning up again a wall when Erina. Walks out with a piece of paper and a megaphone

Ren: (uh ok)

Erina: Eh hem residents of kyoksei dorm

Daigo: what's going on here

Erina: Well from what I can see you've all still got pitiful looks on your faces at this point the end result is obvious even without the advancement exam perhaps it'd just be easier if you left the academy right now

Daigo: What did you get us all out here just to talk a bunch of smack

Yuki: we allwanna stay and we wanna keep cooking our own style of food, but we're not allowed and you don't have to scold us about it

Erina: only a brief time has passed since I came to stay with you and while I have been staying here at the dorm I've had many let's say opportunities to sample all of your dishes, the flavours where often erratic and sometimes a complete mess I can't count the number of times I've delivered my criticism, but I can say this with certainty every dish tasted of freedom, now look you'll never live up too your true potential if you continue staying down in the dumps and allow yourselves to flunk out are you gonna just roll over like this!

Yuki: but even if we do it our way how are we supposed to get through the exam

Erina: it's not a question of getting through it!, you must simple forge your own path with your cooking

Ren smirks: (that's the way Erina you've really taken a liking to soma haven't you)

Erina: if all of you have the will to fight on and wish to continue staying here, I shall use my god tongue and support you in realising your potential, those without the will to fight should just leave right now, I will only face this exam with those of you who have the strength needed to forge on,

Now! If you believe you are truly honourable chefs then step up too the plate and follow my lead!

The find out the advancement exam will be held in Hokkaido, but they start in the south and make their way north clearing trials in each location, there are certain parts where the routes will diverge and eventually the final exam will be held on an isolated island, the theme will most likely been using local Hokkaido ingredients but this time central will be controlling everything

Erina goes full on teacher mode and vows too share everything she knows about Hokkaido

Not to mention she's incredibly strict and brutal saying that in one week they need to learn every single kind of food related to Hokkaido

Then eventually Meat meat, takumi and isami get involved as well

Ren devours the information as fast as he can

Ren: I've been to Hokkaido so many times thay I've lost count, tried the food there, cooked with the ingredients, it's all in my mind I just need to find it and master it and I can definitely do that!

He then sees Soma and Erina talking

Ren: Hey guys what ya talking about

Erina: Ren! Pass the exam that's an order!

Ren: yes mam Although I always thought you wanted me to fail

Erina: first of all I never actually wanted you too fail that was just a response to you being annoying

Ren: oh

Erina: and secondly this goes for you too soma, the person I am now the thought of anyone leaving this school, well I simply cannot abide by it, we'll all become second years together
