" As the Divine Tongue, I came here not only to perform my duties as a taster... but also to meet with various authority figures and key members of the culinary industry. Someday, I will shoulder both the Nakiri family as well as Japan's culinary world. It was imperative that I be shown off so as to impress upon the right people that I was a person to be respected and followed.
It was simply a business transaction, one meant to further Nakiri interests. Whenever I left the Nakiri mansion, it was always for some official business like that.
Looking back on it now... I think that the young me was so used to being led around that she never tried to look at things for herself."
"That can't be right. Um... as the daughter of the Mito Group... I got to officially meet with you a time or two when we were both kids. Even back then, I thought you were amazing, Miss Erina. A-as another kid from a big business family... I know what you're going through."
"Mito?"
"Um! N-not to imply that my family is anywhere near as important as the Nakiris! And I'd never do anything so rude and disrespectful as imply that the two of us are in any way equal!
It's just... I know what it's like to be bound by family duty."
I will not have the Mito family heir showing any signs of meek girliness! Listen, Ikumi. You must be strong! Think of nothing else!
"But in my case, the pressure from my family got to be too much. It overwhelmed me, and, well... I kinda went off the rails until recently.
You had to be under way more pressure than I ever was, Miss Erina.
But you always appeared graceful and acted with dignity. "
