Days passed, and under Hoshino Sora's intentional guidance, Kanroji Mitsuri and the other girls got along increasingly well, quickly becoming familiar with each other.
A week later, Kanroji Mitsuri reluctantly left. Butterfly Ninja arrived the day after she left, and that night, the two had another extremely intimate, close-quarters exchange.
Under Hoshino Sora's diligent guidance, Butterfly Ninja successfully activated her Markings at one in the morning.
And the first to experience the power of Butterfly Ninja's Markings was naturally Hoshino Sora. The reason he worked so hard to develop Butterfly Ninja's talent was, of course, for 'that' between a man and a woman!
Upon learning of Hoshino Sora's thoughts, Butterfly Ninja rolled her eyes in exasperation but still agreed to his request, raising her body temperature to 39 degrees Celsius.
Although his purpose in helping her was not pure, she indeed gained much stronger power. Unfortunately, this power was not used for its intended purpose, at least not the first time.
However, it must be said, this feeling was truly wonderful!
The quality of sleep that night surpassed all previous nights. The next morning, Butterfly Ninja was still a bit unsteady when she got up, complaining to Hoshino Sora while he helped her walk.
In the following days, Hoshino Sora gave Butterfly Ninja the entry and exit token for the Gourmet Manor and also told her to get along harmoniously with his other concubines. The specific plan was to collectively participate in the 'conquest battles' against Hoshino Sora.
Butterfly Ninja's powerful combat strength was greatly appreciated by Alice Nakiri, who bestowed upon her the title of Butterfly Vanguard. Every conquest made Hoshino Sora suffer.
After a week, Butterfly Ninja departed. At Hoshino Sora's request, she prepared to build a restaurant near her home. This restaurant would become the branch restaurant of the Dimensional Restaurant in Demon Slayer.
Of course, building a restaurant requires a lot of time. Hiring craftsmen, drawing blueprints, and other tasks would take at least one or two months, but Hoshino Sora was not in a hurry.
Just like that, a month quietly passed.
Today was the third to last day of summer vacation, and also the day Hoshino Sora and Mr. Li had agreed upon. He brought a group of his concubines to the Totsuki Academy's Headmaster's office, where Senzaemon Nakiri was seated.
Because Erina Nakiri was about to go to China for her studies, she voluntarily resigned from the position of Academy Headmaster before her departure, allowing Senzaemon Nakiri to regain control.
Looking at the man sitting on the Headmaster's throne, no one in the room spoke, all waiting for him to speak.
"Your trip to China represents the face of Totsuki. Go forth and challenge them! Severely strike down those arrogant geniuses in China!
Go fight! With the strength you have shown, you will surely shine brightly on the Oriental Cuisine List!"
Looking at Hoshino Sora, who represented the highest combat power of Totsuki Academy, Senzaemon Nakiri's voice was impassioned. All the fame the other party achieved at the Oriental Academy would belong to Totsuki Academy.
After all, Hoshino Sora represented Totsuki Academy in BLUE and made his first public appearance as the Ten Elite First Seat, which already bound him to Totsuki Academy.
In other words, even if he later joined the Oriental Academy and shined brightly on the world stage, most of the fame he achieved would still belong to Totsuki Academy.
"Take good care of Erina and Alice. Going to China, the two of them are my biggest concern. Without the protection of the Nakitiri Family, how far you can go depends on your luck."
After that came a series of instructions and pleasantries. As they were about to part, Senzaemon Nakiri took Erina's and Alice's hands and placed them in Hoshino Sora's, instructing him to take good care of his two precious granddaughters.
"Don't worry, whether it's Erina or Alice, they are both very important people to me, more precious than life itself! I will take care of them no matter what."
Hoshino Sora said with utmost sincerity, and these were his true feelings. He naturally valued Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri, two girls who had been by his side for a long time, very much.
"You may go. Besides you, I have also selected many other talented chefs. When you arrive at the Oriental Academy, remember to look out for each other, and by no means disgrace the name of my Totsuki Academy! Go."
As he spoke, Senzaemon Nakiri turned his back, his towering figure looking somewhat lonely.
"Grandpa…"
"Grandpa…"
Erina and Alice murmured softly, a hint of reluctance in their eyes.
Hoshino Sora nodded at his back, then resolutely left. As he left first, the girls behind him quickened their pace to follow.
Soon, a group of nine arrived outside the teaching building and saw Dragon BuFan and others waiting for them not far away.
"Over here, over here!"
Looking at Hoshino Sora, who was leading a team of female soldiers, Feng Xuanya enthusiastically raised her hand to greet them. Soon, both groups converged, and Hoshino Sora also found many familiar faces in the team.
"Ah, Soma Yukihira, Hayama, Kurokiba, Takumi, and Miyoko, you are also going to the Oriental Academy this time. Please take care of me from now on."
Looking at the few people standing behind Feng Xuanya, Hoshino Sora greeted them with a smile. At this moment, he was in a good mood and high spirits, as he was about to embark on a journey to the place of his previous life.
Ancient China, the Capital of Cuisine.
"Yes, Master! We stood out in the assessment and are going to China with you as Totsuki chefs to participate in the Oriental Academy's entrance examination.
But I heard that Master, you were directly admitted, and the other party paid a considerable price. You truly are Master!"
Hojo Miyoko praised him sincerely. She had returned home for the summer vacation.
With the unique skills she learned from Hoshino Sora, she used her excellent abilities to make her family's restaurant the most popular one on the Chinese Cuisine Street, and it also became their golden signboard.
Of course, Hojo Miyoko would not become arrogant because of these empty titles. She knew that Hoshino Sora's strength was extremely strong, and after learning that he was going to participate in BLUE, she immediately recognized him as the champion.
And the outcome was just as she expected: her Master was the best in the world!
"I was just lucky. You also have to work hard. I believe in your accumulation. As long as you can exert 100% of your strength, you can definitely pass their assessment."
"Of course! With such an amazing Master, if I can't even pass the entrance exam, wouldn't that be too embarrassing? I will definitely not embarrass Master!"
Hojo Miyoko said firmly, her eyes filled with adoration for Hoshino Sora, an almost fanatical admiration, as if everything he did was absolutely correct.
"Hoshino, I will definitely defeat you when we get to the Oriental Academy!"
Soma Yukihira looked at Hoshino Sora and said earnestly, word by word. Although he had fallen to him many times, this did not make him give up; on the contrary, it infinitely stimulated his fighting spirit!
"When we get to the new school, I won't lose to you again."
"Ryo-kun, you should defeat me first before challenging Hoshino-kun. Our record in Shokugeki is already 33:12, you know. After this period of refinement, I am getting stronger every day!"
Hearing Kurokiba Ryo's provocative words, Hoshino Sora had not yet spoken, but Alice Nakiri stepped forward first, standing in front of him, her words full of confidence.
After entering the second year, she and Kurokiba Ryo had competed in a total of 45 matches, of which she won 33. The other 12 matches were ones where she encountered dishes she was not good at, which led to her losing.
Moreover, the matches she lost were mostly in the early stages; the fewer times she lost, the further along she went, which shows that her progress was much faster than Kurokiba Ryo's, and all of this was thanks to that man.
Hoshino Sora looked at Alice Nakiri, whose expression hadn't changed much, and Alice Nakiri didn't hide the fondness in her eyes.
"Alright, stop chatting here. If you don't leave now, you'll miss the plane."
Mo Lang glanced at his watch and urged them to leave, casting a few surprised glances at the 'ladies' army' behind Hoshino Sora. The women standing behind him were all stunning beauties!
