A Lazy Man’s Adventure - Chapter 182
Time flies fast as the day turned into Wednesday, This would be the second time Ye Han would be teaching a culinary course to students. He texted all the ingredients that should be in his class as he thought of a wonderful plan that would make his new students have a brand new taste to create. Before he went to his first and last class for the day, he made a clear looking soup that is impossible to recreate with just the materials within this world. Ye Han knew that Senzaemon already lost his authority as the headmaster of the Totsuki Culinary Academy, but the elite ten and the new headmaster named Azami Nakiri haven’t learned of his contract to teach every wednesday for 2 years.
Ye Han didn’t care about this two important variables, since his contract cannot be touch or modified unless they find a first generation Nakiri Head stamp which Senzaemon had already hidden. Ye Han grab his soup container which has his cooking product for the students and drove to Totsuki Culinary Academy. He was stopped by the same guards who was guarding the door, but they let him enter as they saw his Teacher ID. Ye Han park his car in the same area he parked before, he went to the texted location which was sent to him, when he arrived he could see an empty culinary room with fresh ingredients in the storage. He double check every ingredient to see if there are rotten or poor quality, while he was checking the ingredients.
The students had already open the door and went inside the classroom while chatting with their friends. They didn’t expect to see each other so soon, since this new schedule and subject was only given to them by Senzaemon who didn’t gave a damn about losing his position as the Headmaster since he saw a possible future when Ye Han comes into the equation. The 19 students from the 92nd generation of Totsuki Culinary Academy, Soma, Erina, Hisako, Megumi, Ryoko, Yuki, Zenji, Shun, Daigo, Shoji, Ikumi, Takumi, Isami, Alice, Ryo, Miyoko, Nao, Akira and lastly Subaru. It was funny as the moment they saw each other, Takumi began to initiate a fight with Soma who agreed.
Ye Han could hear them fighting which made him sighed as there were some troublesome students but they do have talent to back that up. He knocks on the metal door of the storage and said
“Welcome to my class, I can see that everyone is very energetic today. That’s great! Anyway come in front I will show you what you guys will be doing for today.”
They curiously look at Ye Han who was carrying a soup container while putting a pot in the stove, Megumi remembered Ye Han buying from their food stall a few days ago. They followed his instruction and all 19 students went in front where they could see Ye Han opening the soup container. They tried to rub their eyes if they were seeing it right, since a aurora sprouted from the soup which look like plain water. Ye Han said while pouring the Century Soup in the pot.
“This is one of my personal creation, century soup, You guys will have three hours to recreate the taste of my soup. This is to see if you have a wide imagination in recreating flavors, grab a spoon and try tasting it.”
The moment the aroma of the century soup spreads into the air, they unconsciously gulp as they grab a spoon from the cabinet. Soma who was close to the century soup, was the first one to experience the happy expression that would make Erina hesitate to taste. The moment he drank a spoon full of century soup is the moment his mind was blown, countless of creatures unknown to him flown into his mind. The multiple flavors made his smile go wild which reach the corner of his cheek. The soup made Soma laugh which made everyone stunned, Takumi shouted
“YUKIHIRA, Why do you look like that?!”
“hehehe, Takumi…You should try the soup hehehe..Its delicious!”
Takumi who was given the baton to taste the soup began to hesitate but his instinct made him go closer as the smell of the soup was really tempting for them, soon his expression became the same as Soma. Each and Everyone of them had the same expression after tasting the soup, Ye Han even took a photo of his student since this is a once in a lifetime picture that could be use to tease. He spoke
“Now try to recreate the soup, don’t worry you won’t get a failing grade no matter what. Just try your best! Ganbatte~”
The 19 students were very silent as they all thought “THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE TO RECREATE!!”, Ye Han easily understood their thoughts since their expression was a deep concentration with a hint of lost. He set a timer which showed 3 hours while he took a spoon and played the sound that was produce by tapping the spoon in the century soup, it took him a few second to play under the sea from the little mermaid movie. The soup’s sound was like a kalimba which made the students ease, this rhythm actually made them thought of possible recipes which made them all go to the food storage to collect their ingredients.
Ye Han purposely used this song since most of the ingredients he used to recreate a simplified version of century soup came from the sea. All the ingredients he texted was everything he used, but he wouldn’t tell that to the student since this is the best time for them to imagine new flavors. All of them might not use all of the ingredients but it would still give off new variation of the soup, never the less the outcome of today’s lesson was already predicted by Ye Han. Unknown to them, Azami in his Headmaster’s office was fuming with anger as he threw a flower vase onto the ground. In his table was a copy of Ye Han and Senzaemon’s contract which they couldn’t modify and terminate or else the council and the headmaster would face serious consequence, He calmed down as he began planning a scheme in the darkness.
