The Epic of Leviathan

Chapter 406 - Totsuki Entrance Examination (I)...

A completely white Rolls Royce limousine stopped in front of the Totsuki Tea Ceremony and Cooking Academy… a lot of people stopped to stare at the beautiful luxurious car… the doors clicked open and six extremely beautiful teenage girls came out of the car… 

Everyone around the car gaped at their beauty… all six of them were breathtakingly beautiful by their own standards and they also had a certain type of aura surrounding them. No one even dared to approach the group of girls. 

"Nemuri spent 3.6 trillion to acquire this, right?" Ororo asked with a frown but Fleur shook her head. 

"Non, Nemuri spent 3.6 trillion to acquire Totsuki… not just the school but she acquired all the hotels and businesses related to the Totsuki too…" Fleur pointed out. 

"How long do we have till the exam starts?" Jean asked from the side. 

"About an hour… let's go and wait inside…" Momo said and all of them decided to go inside. As soon as they entered the Totsuki premises, they started to notice various groups of students waiting along with their butlers and maids… 

The scene was pretty much unreal but it was something new for all of them. "Do you want to make a bet?" All of a sudden Luna spoke up with a dazed look on her face. 

"Luna… we aren't stupid" Nat said with a thin smile on her face. 

"...I understand that you are scared… It's completely fine Nat, I understand" Luna said with a bright smile on her face and a tick mark appeared on Nat's head. 

"So Luna, what can you tell us about the entrance exam?" Jean asked curiously and Luna bobbed her head sideways… she remained silent for a few moments until the smile on her face widened. 

"There are going to be three invigilators for the Examination… At first, there was going to be only one invigilator but Nemuri decided to put her foot down… the initial judge is still going to be there, she is not a good invigilator, she would have failed everyone just because of her personal feelings" Luna said and the rest of them frowned but nodded their heads in understanding. 

They didn't even notice how the time passed and it was already time for the Entrance Exam. The group finally arrived at the hall where the examination would be conducted… A huge crowd was already gathered inside the room but the hall was completely silent. 

"Welcome to the Entrance Exam of Totsuki Tea Ceremony and Cooking Ceremony… I am going to be blunt with you, only the best of the best are going to be selected" a female voice was heard from the front. The group simply shrugged because they already knew that they were going to be selected, having a true seer in your group has its own perks. 

"To be honest, I have better things to do and I don't want to be here so the time is going to be short… now, you have a minute to withdraw from the exam" the female voice spoke up once again and surprisingly the examinees started to run away from the Examination hall. 

"I was talking about her… her name is Nakiri Erina" Luna said with a smile when everyone besides them were gone. 

"Ah… Nakiri. Now I understand where her arrogance comes from…" Fleur muttered and Nakiri Erina's eyes finally landed on their group. 

"So, you girls are going to take the exam?" Nakiri Erina called out haughtily. 

"Yes" Momo said in a determined tone… Nakiri Erina was slightly surprised but didn't say anything and nodded her head. 

"Fine… I will call the other two invigilators" Nakiri said and snapped her fingers. The pink-haired woman standing behind Nakiri Erina walked out of the room and only after a few minutes she returned with a middle-aged man and a young man with a goatee. 

The middle-aged man had a moustache while the man with the goatee was wearing a golf hat on top of his head. "Now, let me introduce the other invigilators too… this is Shigenoshin Koda" Erina said pointing towards the man with the moustache. Then she pointed towards the man with the goatee. "This is Katsunori Okamoto" Erina said. 

"Now that you know the names of your invigilators, let's start your examination" Erina said and the group simply nodded their heads. 

"Is this everyone?" Koda asked and Erina sniffed. 

"Yes, these six are the only ones who stayed ba…" Erina started to say but she was cut off when someone cleared his throat from the side. 

"Uhmm… I am here too" a red-haired boy raised up his hand and spoke up from the side. The girls knew about his presence but apparently, Nakiri Erina had completely ignored the kid. 

Nakiri Erina didn't look too happy when she was interrupted even though it was her mistake to ignore an examinee. Well, haughty people were always unreasonable. 

"Fine… now for the test. You can make anything with the ingredients available in the kitchen… you have half an hour" Erina said and sat down at the corner of the room along with the pink-haired woman and the other invigilators. 

'Hah… do you take us for fools? You can make anything but you only have 30 minutes… there aren't a lot of things you can make in 30 minutes' Momo yelled inside her mind but she didn't say anything as this was a genuine challenge. 

Jean rushed towards the refrigerator and the other girls didn't even bother and started to check other ingredients… Jean was already using her powers to connect their minds so that they could talk with each other through their minds. Nat also had similar powers, that is why Nat was rummaging through the spice cabinet. 

The group's odd behaviour alerted the judges and the red-haired boy but nobody interrupted them as helping each other wasn't against the rules and it was completely debatable if they were even helping each other as the group didn't even talk with each other… hell, none of them has even looked at each other. 

'I am going with the egg-noodle stir fry' Jean said as soon as she heard from Fleur that there were noodles in the flour cabinet. Nobody opposed as everyone had their own plans. 

'I will be making charred spring onion tofu' Momo declared and Jean helped her with the ingredients while Nat passed her the spices. 

Before Momo could even say anything. Luna passed her the kitchen life stand… in other words. The group was having an easy time. 

'I will be making tomatoes stuffed with pesto rice' Luna's cheerful voice rang out throughout all of their minds. Ororo passed Luna the tomatoes. 

'I am making veggie-filled bread' Ororo declared, that is why she already had an assortment of veggies in front of her. 

'I will be making orzo and tomato soup' Fleur declared. 

'I will be making courgette lasagne' Nat declared and with that, the whole group finished deciding on the dish. 

While the group was preparing the dishes while helping out each other from time to time without any form of communication, an odd conversation was taking place at the judge's table. 

"How are they communicating with each other… I didn't even see any one of them making eye contact" Okamoto whispered to Kado who nodded his head with a similar type of confused look on his face. 

Nakiri Erina was also carefully watching the group as they were doing something which is only possible if you have worked with each other for decades… even after that, your coordination won't be perfect like this… this was simply unreal. The blonde woman with the dazed look on her face already knew what was going to happen before it even happened… 

It was like the woman could see the future… again something completely impossible… the aroma of their respective dishes started to spread throughout the whole kitchen… Nakiri Erina couldn't help herself getting slightly excited though she would never admit that. 

Hisoka Arato also looked really interested in the group of girls preparing food in front of them. The four of them had already forgotten about the red-haired boy. Even the red-haired boy was staring at the group from time to time. He had never seen anything like that… it was like a dance. 

The girls finally started to finish their food one by one… even though the red-haired boy kept glancing towards them from time to time, he still paid a lot of attention to his own dish. His experience in the diner would never allow him to do that…

The timer finally reached zero and it all seven examinees had finished setting up the plates… the red-haired boy was the first one to approach the invigilator's table and with that, the final and most important part of their examination has begun…
