Chapter 16

"Yamashita-san, how are you doing today?" Although I spent the last week with Miyuki and she had become a bit more casual in speech, she still kept a formal attitude throughout the time I spent with her.

'She kept the format act for most of the week, but she displays one hell of a sexy face when she eats, this world isn't too bad' I come to think of the past week in Osaka and Miyuki's reactions throughout the week.

[Hey Rin, so have you finally given in to this world?]

'Come to think of it I may as well just accept this world's logic. There's no real reason to understand the food reactions other than what triggers them so I can use it to my advantage'

[But the only definite information we have is that the reaction is triggered once a dish reaches or passes the 8/10 rating. I think there is more than that.]

'I agree. When we meet more people and increase my skills, we will understand it more. I've only eaten with Miyuki for the past week. We don't know the triggers if the reactions differ from person to person'

[Hm, I guess we'll learn more in Tokyo]

We arrive at the restaurant 'Mastudaya', a restaurant famed for its Omokase sushi.

"Hello, we have a reservation for 2 people under the name Yamashita Rin. We are a little early" I say politely as the waitress looks for the reservation.

"Yamashita-sama, your seats are available now. Please follow me" The lady smiles and then guides us into the restaurant.

'This place is tiny' I look at the room with only 7 seats sat before an open kitchen where a chef is making the sushi.

"Mastudaya-san there are 2 more customers" the lady says loudly to the chef. She then hands us a menu and a two glasses of water.

The chef had a shaved head. He wears a white chef shirt showing he's the head chef, or maybe the only chef.

'But one thing is for certain, he is definitely skilled to handle the front by himself' I look at the old chef and cannot help but think he must be a sushi master.

'Analyse'

'This is the highest gastronomy level I've seen so far' I look at his gastronomy level in awe.

'Hey Amara, why is there such an enormous difference between gastronomy and cooking' I ask her telepathically.

[Maybe it's because he only specializes in sushi. I'm not too sure. I guess the food will tell us what level he is.]

"Are you ready to order now Miyuki-san" I ask her and then put down my menu.

"Yes, let's order now" she smiles.

"Sumimasen!" I call the waiter and then tell her what we want to order. In the end, we both ordered the same items as each other.

'It should be interesting to see how he makes sushi. Maybe I could learn something.'

The way the chef holds his knife I could tell he was an experienced cook.

'He's good' I comment inwardly whilst watching him make the sushi with precision.

Each slice of fish that was delicately cut out with precision, and the presentation of the sushi really presented the perfectionist side of the chef.

The rice was set out in perfect proportions whilst the toppings were placed perfectly. It was obvious from one look that a master made it.

'It looks perfect.'

I look at the dish of Nigiri sushi and then at Miyuki who has a little drool coming from her mouth as she looks at the sushi.

'Analyze'

The dishes continue to come until we have a platter of different sushi. 'I wonder if he can keep the rating' I say to myself whilst being curious of the chef's actual abilities.

I then continue to analyse the platter of sushi in front of me. 'All of them are 9/10' I become shocked by the consistent ratings of each dish.

'Well, this will be a wild ride' I say to myself before picking up the sushi.

I give a brief look at Miyuki before I see her eat it and her face displays pure euphoria.

'Fuck it' I take a bite of the sushi.

'Oh. my. fucking. god' were my last words as i go into a foodgasm.

[Foodgasm world]

I silver haired fish man appears on a throne in a grand palace. The throne was placed at the back of the room in order to oversee the throne room.

A line of red carpet lead from the main door to the room to the throne, giving those who walk into the throne room a grandiose impression.

The fishman had a golden crown lied on top of his head, although most of his body seemed human like. Some distinct features of a fish can be seen.

Small gulls can be seen just under the corner of his eyes, whilst there are two fins at the lower part of his face which extending to the middle of his neck. His skin had a slight blue tint to it, and his mere presence had an imposing royal aura to it.

"Your Majesty." Several fishlike maids with plump tits walk into the throne room.

"Your dinner is ready your Majesty." The silver-haired king follows the maid into what seemed a dining room.

Several types of sushi were being served. Maids came one by one to feed him the sushi of their retrospective race.

"Eat me your Majesty." before handing me the sushi the maids press their boobs together, showing their incredible busts.

"Mnh" the silver-haired king has an impression of pure elation whilst radiating a powerful aura.

"Ahh" as they feed the sushi to their king, their clothes strip from his aura.

"Awh your majesty" the maids scream in joy.

The previously clothed maids can be seen lying on the floor with an expression of pure pleasure, whilst the king had his eyes closed, satisfied with his feast.

[Back to the real world]

[Rin POV]

'The 7/10 rating doesn't do the chef justice' I comment after recovering.

"That meal was the best meal I've eaten in both of my lives" I mumble as I gaze at the empty plates.

[Didn't you realise you committed cannibalism whilst in that dream?

'You act like I could have controlled myself whilst in there'

*sigh*

'The visions seem to get weirder and weirder'

I notice that Miyuki is still in a foodgasm. 'I'm gonna miss that expression' I look at the sexy face of the busy Japanese lady.

I see Miyuki open her eyes and then display an odd smile whilst blushing.

'She must have had a really strange one.'

"That was the best sushi I've ever had. Thank you for treating me Yamashita-san" Miyuki recovers and says with a satisfied grin on her face.

"No problem Miyuki-san" I say to her and then continue to talk to Miyuki for a while.

"Miyuki-san how about we set off" I say to her.

"Sure" she says before we both get up and walk towards the till. 'It's a good job I'm rich' I comment inwardly as I look at the bill.

We both get in the car and she drives me back to my apartment. I gazed multiple times into the rear-view mirror and each time Miyuki redirects her eyes from me as her face looked slightly depressed.

As we pull up to the parking space, I hear Miyuki "I guess this is goodbye. Thankyou for letting me accompany you for the week Yamashita-san" Miyuki turns around and says to me with a smile, but it couldn't hide the depressed look on her face.

"I know it's your job, but thank you also for accompanying me. When I come back to Osaka, I will have you accompany me again"

"It would be my pleasure!" sparkles recover in her eyes as she replies.

'Damn foodie' I comment inwardly.

"Goodbye Miyuki-san" I smile back and exit the car.

"Good evening master Rin. How was your day?" as the elevator opens, Alfred greets me.

"It was good. The food was amazing! Is everything organised for the flight to Tokyo tomorrow?"

"Yes, everything is sorted. I will also accompany you in Tokyo" The old man smiles as he responds.

"Sounds good Alfred. I'll have you accompany more when I visit restaurants. I've eaten some great food this week"

"I will pack now and then go to bed" I say goodnight to Alfred and walk into my bedroom.

"I don't think I'll have to pack much as I'll be staying at my Tokyo condo. Maybe I'll take the rest of the books and a watch" I murmur whilst packing my suitcase.

"Okay, I'll get some studying done and then I'll sleep" I say quietly and then open a book.

[Rin, I told you not to overwork yourself. *sigh* don't study too long or you'll burn yourself out.]

'Don't worry Amara' I study for an hour and then go to sleep.

I wake up early in the morning and get ready for the flight. "The flight is at 12PM so we should set off soon master Rin" I hear Alfred speak at the other side of the door.

"Okay, I'm ready now so let's go" I say loud enough so Alfred can hear me. We both head downstairs and then ride to the airport.
