As I finished cooking with Liora, I stepped back and looked at the lined-up breakfast dishes, all placed neatly along the countertop.
I picked one of the plates obviously the one I'd cooked and grabbed a spoon.
Scooping up some egg, I took a bite.
Hmm. Not bad.
"How is it?" Liora asked, looking up at me from her wheelchair.
"It's good enough," I said, smiling slightly.
I moved to the side, grabbed the food trolley, and carefully loaded the dishes onto it. Plate after plate. Twenty in total.
Once everything was in place, I pushed the trolley toward the dining room, the place where most of the students had started gathering for breakfast.
The room was half full. Since only half of Valery students join the competition.
As soon as I entered, clothes still a little dirty from cooking, sleeves rolled up, pushing the cart with Liora beside me—
The room went silent.
Dozens of eyes turned toward us — Valery students, heirs, nobles, all staring.
At me.
Kael Valery.
