Cutlery: Azami's speech begins...!!
Takumi: ...Anyway, to think Nakiri Erina-san went through such things...
Isami: But, is it ok? I think that a rich lady disappearing would be a major incident.

Souma: For the time being, Arato is bringing her clothes every day,
Souma: And Nakiri Alice and Kurokiba have come to hang with her but it doesn't seem they've noticed.

Azami: It's terribly regrettable but anyone who disobeys
Azami: Will be asked to leave this academy.
Azami: And it seems you all have a mistaken idea...

p10
Azami: The system we had until now was much more irrational.
Azami: It used meritocracy as an excuse to completely abandon drop-outs.
Azami: I didn't consider that all cooks have different personalities and growth speeds.
Azami: Don't you think that was far too violent?
Megumi: ............
Azami: All cooking classes from now on are places to convey the Central's teachings.
Azami: Everyone can receive its benefits equally.
Azami: In other words,

p11
Azami: Elite Ten-level techniques, ideas, and recipes
Azami: Will all eventually be learned by all of you present here.
Kiyoshi: We will
Kiyoshi: Learn cooking of the Elite Ten's level......?

Girl: Won't that be...Really useful

Tetsuji: ............!!
Roland: I firmly disagree.

p15
Man: Chapelle-sensei...!
Roland: Such a thing...
Roland: Is almost slavery!
Azami: No, that's wrong.
Azami: This is a gourmet food Utopia.
Roland(thinks): ......What Utopia?
Roland(thinks): There's those who are free to create new things
Roland(thinks): And those who are only forced to imitate them.

p16
Roland(thinks): This is the demon king of gourmet food dividing the world in two pieces,
Roland(thinks): It's a dystopia!!
