A winner in life at Tōtsuki academy

At this moment, Chappelle couldn't help but swallow hard as he looked at the sweet and sour pork in front of him.

Cooking pays close attention to color and aroma. This "color" is not only worth the color of the food, but also the color and overall appearance of the food.

The so-called tasting is, first feel a tempting aroma, start to imagine the appearance of the cooking, when it comes in front of your eyes, you will see the delicacy of the cooking, then the more intense aroma, and the heat coming from your face, and finally with anticipation.

Finally, taste the meal.

Chappelle sighed and picked up a pair of chopsticks. The pork with a radiant shine from the thickening and the carrots made Chappelle's eyes shine.

He leaned in, approaching the plate as if he were about to reveal a long-kept secret. The succulent pieces of meat seemed to glisten, each piece promising the perfect fusion of sweet and savory. Chapelle picked up a fork, and as he took the first bite to his mouth, his eyes widened. The meat fell apart with the slightest pressure, releasing an explosion of flavors that seemed like a symphonic concert of sweet and savory notes together with the slight heat of pepper.

With each chew, the sweetness of the sauce enveloped your tongue like a warm hug, while the subtle acidity balanced the richness of the pork. It was as if each ingredient was in perfect harmony, orchestrating an experience that defied understanding what it meant to truly enjoy a dish. Chapelle closed his eyes, allowing the flavors to intertwine in his mind like vivid memories—each mouthful transported him to memories of warm homes and family feasts.

Condensing all of these into one dish allows them to maintain their characteristics while being assimilated into existences with the same characteristics.

This dish was a perfect combination of sweet, sour, spicy, salty, and fresh.

"The textures... the combination... it's a perfect dance!", he murmured, his voice choked by the intensity of the experience. The vibrant colors of the dish, from the thick, bright sauce to the pineapple chunks, created a visual spectacle that complemented the gustatory pleasure. In the back of his mind, an idea was forming.

The pork is tender, the vegetables are crunchy and unique. There is no other word to describe it except harmony.

(I need to replicate this masterpiece in my kitchen.)

With each bite, his determination grew, as if he were about to embark on a new culinary battle, where the only goal was to capture the intensity of that experience in his creation. The smile on his face said it all: he had been won over.

At this moment, Chapelle looked like this, with a smile unconsciously on his face, and the students were all stunned.

"I-Chapelle-sensei is smiling!?"

Chapelle also recovered from this delicious food, he went to a rice cooker, filled a bowl of rice and came back, the students were all surprised, what an amazing job, this is Chapelle's dinner?

Damian also laughed and said warmly, "So, Mr. Chappelle, did I pass?"

"Of course, there are definitely more than three flavors, and they are very impactful and delicious. I have a hard time believing this is a student's work. If that isn't qualified, I don't know what is excellent anymore. Congratulations, Damian Gray. Tōtsuki welcomes you."

Damian smiled and nodded.

"Right. Tomorrow is the opening ceremony. You'll also have to give a speech on stage. The ceremony starts at 8:20, so don't be late."

Damian nodded and then said suspiciously, "Will the dormitory also be divided tomorrow?"

Chappelle was stunned for a moment and then suddenly said, "Oh! I almost forgot about that..."

"Well, I will arrange a dormitory for you today, but you can find out which one will be arranged tomorrow, so today you can only stay off campus temporarily."

Damian nodded and suddenly said, "Oh! I see... Then I'll go first..."

"Wait, this is your admission notice, it's stamped"

"You can take this admission notice and check into a hotel near Tōtsuki, you can stay one night for free."

Damian smiled and said, "Thanks, Chapelle-sensei, this will save some money."

"Heh... Right! You're tired after coming all this way, go and rest."

"Yes! I'll see you tomorrow, Chapelle-sensei."

"Hmm!"
