Final Chapter: The Man Called the Food Overlord
The Santoku Group.
This colossal entity symbolized the very heart of Japan, overseeing not only essential infrastructure such as roads, railways, electricity, gas, and water, but also operating hospitals, schools, and other public facilities. Even the nation itself could not easily defy the Santoku name. With total assets reaching two hundred quadrillion yen and over five thousand subsidiaries, its influence extended far beyond Japan and across the entire world.
In recent years, it had even brought the world of "food"—the culinary industry itself—under its control. All of this was made possible by Santoku Shogo, who had inherited the position of family head at a young age.
He was the man feared as the "Food Overlord" due to his cooking skills that operated on an entirely different dimension. His path to dominance was said to have begun at age fifteen, when he enrolled at Totsuki Academy, Japan's premier culinary school.
92nd generation. Also known as the "Golden Generation."
These were raw gems of talent gathered by Nakiri Senzemon, the current head of the Nakiri family, which had since formed an alliance with the Santoku family. Among them, Santoku Shogo had been selected as a jewel of the highest caliber. Shining so brightly that he eclipsed those around him, he continued to pile up victories and carve out his own path.
From his very first major test as a first-year—the notorious "Stagiare" training camp—he had already demonstrated overwhelming talent. On the final day, he claimed first place with a massive lead over the other students, announcing the arrival of the future Overlord. After that came the Autumn Selection and the Totsuki Festival, where he continued to achieve top-class results one after another.
As a first-year, he accomplished the unprecedented feat of becoming the youngest member of Totsuki Academy's highest decision-making body, the Council of Ten, taking the Sixth Seat. That record still stands unbroken. Although, that achievement was later nullified due to a certain incident.
The Central Gastronomy Agency's revolution led by Nakiri Azami.
Under the newly appointed Headmaster Azami, Totsuki Academy faced its greatest crisis. All previous norms were destroyed, and in the name of "saving all chefs," freedom was stripped away from them. Among the chefs who rebelled—later known as the Resistance—stood Santoku Shogo. As someone who loved cooking, he rose up alongside his comrades.
The battle, which dragged on until the end of the year, ended in victory for the Resistance. Nakiri Azami stepped down as Headmaster and was expelled from Totsuki Academy. The surprising part was that he now worked as Santoku Shogo's personal chef, supporting him. The sheer capacity to embrace even former enemies may well be Santoku Shogo's greatest weapon.
Even after advancing to his second year, his prominence only continued to grow.
He won numerous cooking competitions, making his name resound throughout the culinary world. He wielded his authority as a member of the Council of Ten effectively, steadily elevating the Santoku Group's position in the industry—carefully and without haste.
The crowning achievement was his victory in BLUE, the global competition held in the summer to determine the strongest young chef.
With this, he was the undisputed strongest in the world. On top of that, he publicly proposed to Nakiri Erina, the daughter of the Nakiri family, and even reversed the power balance with the Nakiri family, who had previously stood above the Santoku. No one could stop his meteoric rise fueled by pure strength.
Having claimed the summit of the culinary world as well, the Santoku Group became truly invincible. It rapidly increased the number of affiliated chefs, trained them, and turned them into a reliable fighting force. The sales and reputation of the restaurants run by these chefs went without saying, and the economic impact they generated was immeasurable. Cooking now accounted for nearly half of the Santoku Group's total revenue, proving just how many people in this world were captivated by the art of cuisine.
Santoku Shogo was now twenty-five years old.
In just seven years since graduating from Totsuki Academy, he had grown the organization to this extent. The foresight of his father, who had entrusted the position of head to him based on that ability and leadership, also deserved praise.
It was a well-known fact that every single pillar supporting the Santoku Group—its chefs and talents—had been personally scouted by Santoku Shogo himself.
His right-hand man and the Head Chef of the Santoku Group, who had been taught all of Shogo's cooking techniques—Mimasaka Subaru.
"I just want to be useful to that man."
The bold woman in a vibrant red cheongsam, head of the Chinese cuisine division—Hojo Miyoko.
"Work faster! If you want to stay in my kitchen, clench your asshole and move like your life depends on it! If you betray our employer's expectations, I won't forgive you!"
The complete opposite personalities of the same age, head and assistant of the Japanese cuisine division—Kinokuni Nene and Yanai Mea.
"Mea, you're late. As punishment, I'll tell him… and I won't tickle you tonight."
"Ehhh! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Don't tell him~! Forgive me, Nene-chan~!"
The upright and talented woman, head of the Western cuisine division—Kikuchi Sonoka.
"All of my work exists for Owner Shogo-kun. …Yes, all of it."
The Santoku Group's No.2 chef and her assistant—Kobayashi Rindou and Sakaki Ryoko.
"Alrighty, let's get started! I'm counting on you today too, Ryoko! We've gotta do great work and get praised by Shogo!"
"That's right. I'll support you with everything I have, senpai. We have to do our best for Shogo-kun too."
The First Seat Executive of the international organization WGO—Lanterby.
"Evaluating Santoku Group restaurants is so boring… Of course they're delicious. They belong to him, after all."
The heads of the Santoku Group's Culinary Research Institute—Bertha and Sheila.
"Hey, Sheila. If this research succeeds, do you think Boss will praise us? ♡"
"Yeah, Bertha. Let's get lots… and lots of praise ♡"
Centered around these specialists in their respective fields, the Santoku Group rapidly established an unshakable position in the culinary world.
Santoku Shogo's path of conquest was only just beginning. He would surely continue pressing forward, following his own will.
─Because for the man called the Food Overlord, nothing is impossible.
▲▽▲▽▲▽▲▽▲▽▲▽
"…Umm, I finished reading it."
"H-How was it!? …It's a piece I'm quite confident in…"
"…Well, yeah. …I can definitely feel the passion."
"! Th-Thank you very much!"
As I placed the finished manuscript on the desk, I was feeling unusually troubled. I had no idea how to respond to Yaeko, who was eagerly waiting for feedback, so saying "passion" was the best I could do to gloss things over.
"'The Man Called the Food Overlord,' huh… Are you really going to run a magazine feature with this? …More importantly, did you even need to take on a job like this?"
"Of course I did! Even in this era of rapid transition from print to digital, the influence of magazines cannot be underestimated! Naturally, we're also planning digital publication. This is the perfect opportunity to let people of all ages learn about Shogo-sama!"
"I never really wanted to become a celebrity or anything…"
Yaeko, my secretary, had enthusiastically brought in this project, but honestly, I wasn't interested. My name was already well-known enough, and so was my face. It just felt embarrassing, and I didn't see much benefit.
…Still, seeing Yaeko this happy made it hard to turn her down. Her eyes were sparkling and everything. Hard to believe she's thirty-three. She's so cute I want to hug her.
"…Alright. I'll make some adjustments myself, but we'll go with this draft."
"Shogo-sama! Thank you so much!"
"It's fine. If this is what you want, it's my job to make it happen."
I rested my cheek on my hand and gave a wry smile as I looked over the text that had also been sent to my computer. It was almost annoyingly thorough in describing how amazing Santoku Shogo was. Given that the achievements were real, it was the kind of content that could easily draw complaints. If there was anyone brave enough to do that, I'd love to see it.
"…Hm? …Ah, come in."
The buzzer for entry permission rang, so I checked the monitor and unlocked the door. It was necessary security, but doing the same thing multiple times a day got tedious. I turned my body toward the door while still leaning back in my chair and greeted the visitor.
"Sorry to interrupt. Were you in the middle of something?"
The one who entered with a graceful smile, her beautiful golden hair swaying elegantly, was my beloved wife, Erina. Unlike her high school days, she now kept her hair at shoulder length, giving her a mature, seductive beauty that was less "cute" and more "stunning."
Her white knit top and black tight skirt that reached above the knee suited her perfectly. Her beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings were, of course, captivating. Given the setting, she looked exactly like a capable female executive. In reality, she was the president's wife.
"No, we just finished. Apparently they're doing a magazine feature on me."
"I know. Yaeko-san showed me the draft earlier. It turned out well, didn't it?"
"…Yaeko. You showed it to Erina too?"
"I-I'm sorry. I thought it would be better to let Madam see it as well…"
"Don't scold Yaeko-san. I was the one who insisted on seeing it."
Seeing the two of them laughing happily together, I had no complaints. I raised my hands in surrender. Do as you like. As long as you two are happy, I'm happy too.
"…Sorry, phone call."
The name displayed on my smartphone was "Alice."
She was currently pregnant with my child and staying quietly at my family home. Lately she seemed unsatisfied with just seeing me in person and called two or three times a day without fail. I couldn't always answer during meetings, but there was no issue now, so I tapped the call button immediately.
"Hello? What's up? Got lonely and wanted to hear my voice?"
"Eh? How did you know?"
"I just do. It's obvious."
"Ufufu, Shogo-kun really loves me, doesn't he?"
"Nope. I love you."
"…Mou, you're so unfair. …Hey, Shogo-kun."
"What is it?"
"Once this baby is born healthy… will you make my belly big again?"
"…Of course. If that's what you want, Alice."
I heard a quiet "Yay!" from the other side of the phone. Damn, she's cute. Alice really is a bewitching woman. She knows exactly what men like to hear. And it's completely natural.
"──A-Alice, my lady! W-What are you saying!? That's… so indecent!"
"What's wrong with that, Secretary-chan!? You're the one who gets all excited about having Shogo-kun's baby too~!"
"I-I am not getting excited! Shogo!? I am definitely not… excited!!"
"Yeah, yeah, I know, Hisako."
Hisako suddenly joined the conversation. Like Alice, she was also pregnant with my child and staying at the family home. It seemed they were together, and she couldn't help but retort at Alice's words.
The one difference from Alice was that this was Hisako's second pregnancy. Their first child, Yuka, was already a lively three-year-old girl. Alice's comment about wanting a second child might have come from jealousy toward Hisako.
"Alice. Can I talk to Hisako for a bit?"
"Yeees. Secretary-chan, switch with me."
"Wha… H-Hello?"
"Sounds like you two are having fun. As her senior, give her lots of advice, alright?"
"I-I don't need to be told that. You should focus on supporting Erina-sama in my place."
"That goes without saying. I should be able to make time tomorrow, so I'll come see you both."
"Y-You don't have to push yourself…"
"Yay! It's been a week since I last saw Shogo-kun!"
Unlike the reserved Hisako, Alice openly showed her feelings. I appreciated her concern, but I wanted to spoil the women I loved and make them happy. They could be as selfish as they wanted.
"Stay quiet and wait for me. Got it?"
"Yes, I understand. Darling ♡ …Here, Secretary-chan."
"I-I understand. …D-Darling…! I'm hanging up now!"
"Ahh! I still want to talk to Shogo-kun──"
Despite Alice's protest, the call ended. They were probably having a cute little argument right now. They say people who fight are close, so I hoped they'd get some light exercise as long as it didn't affect the pregnancy.
"From Alice and Hisako? It sounds like both are doing well. That's a relief."
"Yeah. I won't let my guard down, but I'm sure they'll both give birth to healthy babies. …Yaeko, sorry to keep asking, but I'm counting on you with those two. If anything happens, contact me immediately. I'll drop everything and rush over."
"Fufu, understood."
Now then, I had about thirty minutes until the next meeting. Maybe I'd take a short break on the sofa.
"Yaeko. The only thing left today is the meeting, so you can head home now. Stay with Haruhiko. He seemed to really enjoy that game he played with me last time. Keep him company, will you?"
Haruhiko was my six-year-old son with Yaeko. He had a quiet personality but strong concentration. I was sure he'd grow up to be an outstanding person, just like his mother.
"Yes, understood. Then, Shogo-sama, Madam, please excuse me."
"Good work. See you tomorrow."
"Thanks for your hard work. Say hello to Haruhiko-kun for me."
Perhaps because she could go home early and see her son, Yaeko left the room with light steps. I tried my best to make time for my sons and daughters, but it didn't always work out. Since I had caused the mothers a great deal of hardship, I intended to do everything I could for them.
I would pay any amount of money to lighten their burden. That was exactly why I had become the head of the Santoku Group.
"…Haa. …Erina, come here."
Leaning back on the sofa, I had Erina sit on my lap. The faint, pleasant scent of her perfume tickled my nose.
"You look tired, Mr. President. …Or should I say, as my husband?"
"Both, I guess. Though compared to being a husband, being president is pretty boring. That's why the president job actually gives me way more stress. …But when it comes to the women I love, both roles are important."
"I know you're strong, but don't push yourself too hard. The most important thing for all of us is that you stay healthy."
Erina gently brushed my hair behind my ear and gave me a soft kiss. It was just a kiss, yet it was incredibly erotic. Where did she get this sex appeal? From being a married woman? Yeah, she was a wife now.
"Speaking of health, Soma's pretty extreme too. Apparently he hasn't closed the restaurant once except for regular holidays."
"And Megumi's right there with him. Even when she was pregnant, she worked as much as she could. They really have become a perfect match."
"Maybe. …Still, their daughter Sayaka has real talent. She's only five, but I'm excited to see her future."
"Oh? Our son isn't losing either, you know?"
"Masayuki is… kind of an exception. He doesn't have the God's Tongue, but his palate is more than good enough. Plus, his ability to learn is ridiculous. At five years old, he already recreated one of my dishes, even if it was incomplete. Can we really just call that 'talent'?"
"I definitely feel a strong blood connection when I look at your child. That boy will undoubtedly become a chef equal to you—or even greater."
I couldn't help nodding at Erina's words. Masayuki was incredibly serious about cooking. And sometimes… he showed movements that seemed almost guided toward the correct answer.
I had suspected my cheat might have been passed on genetically, but that didn't seem to be the case. He could stop cooking midway even when the dish wasn't complete, suggesting he might possess an even higher version of my ability. If so, he would definitely surpass me. After all, his passion for cooking was on a completely different level. If talent had been given to someone who truly deserved it, I couldn't be happier.
"The future of the Santoku family looks bright. The Nakiri family too, of course."
"You heard from Asahi-oniisama?"
"Yeah. I'm glad for you, Erina. You finally got a little brother."
"Yes, I'm very happy."
Recently, a boy had been born to Azami and Mana. He was the first younger brother for both Asahi and Erina, and Asahi seemed especially fond of him. He even sent photos by email during work sometimes. Total big brother idiot.
"We'll have to work hard so we don't lose either."
"As long as you're here, we'll be fine."
"What's this? Are you saying something cute to seduce me? We've got a meeting soon, you naughty wife."
"Really? But… it doesn't seem like this part of you is complaining."
Sitting on my lap, Erina placed her hand on my crotch. She wore a seductive smile, clearly provoking me.
Honestly, I had been hard ever since the phone call with Alice and Hisako earlier. There was no way my cock wouldn't react after hearing things like that. Knowing that, Erina was boldly teasing me.
"…Erina."
"…Nnh. …The meeting will be late, you know?"
"They can wait. I'm the president."
"…Fufu, you're such a bad man."
Saying that, Erina got off my lap. Who was the bad one here? The one who started it. Meaning, I wasn't at fault. It would be a man's shame to refuse a meal set before him. Especially when that meal was Erina. As a man, refusing wasn't an option.
"…Nhaah. …Mou, you tore my stockings again. You really love ripping them, don't you?"
"It's a man's dream. No matter how many times I do it, it still excites me."
Erina placed her hands on the desk and pushed her ass out. I rolled up her skirt and tore the stockings, exposing her underwear. Her wine-red, incredibly lewd string panties came into view, making my cock even harder.
"Hey, you're already soaked. Were you expecting this?"
"…Th-That's not it. …Just… hurry up and put it in me ♡"
Erina shook her hips lewdly, begging for insertion. Judging from the amount of love juice, foreplay wasn't necessary. I pulled my cock out of my pants.
I moved her panties aside, exposing her pussy, and rubbed my glans against the entrance, teasing it open.
"Aaahn… Put it in properly…! Shove Shogo-kun's thick cock… deep into Erina's pussy…!"
The wet sounds and Erina's voice echoed in my ears. I grew excited at how good this refined young lady had become at dirty begging. I slipped both hands under her knit top and roughly kneaded her breasts. Then I slid my hands under her bra and gently scraped her swollen, erect nipples with my fingertips.
"Nhaaaah! …My nipples… feel so good… Nooo ♡"
"It's not 'no,' right? You're a pervert who can cum just from your nipples, aren't you? ──Go on, squirt hard."
"Aaaaaaaaahhh!!"
I pinched both nipples at once, releasing all the built-up pleasure. Erina couldn't hold back and violently squirted from her urethra. She was soaking my desk with it. I couldn't hold back any longer either.
"Erina, come here."
"Haa… haa… Kyaa!"
I princess-carried Erina and moved back to the sofa. I laid her on her back and made her spread her legs in an M-position. The white skin and pussy visible between her black-stocking-covered legs. Only I in this world was allowed to see Erina like this.
"If you want it inside, spread it yourself. You can do that, right, Erina?"
"…Yes. …So mess me up completely?"
Erina used her fingers to spread her pussy, fully exposing her insides. The twitching, hungry hole had a magical pull I couldn't resist.
I gripped my cock tightly with my right hand and pressed the glans against her entrance again. The even wetter entrance easily welcomed my shaft.
"──Nngaaaaahhh!! …Shogo-kun's cock… is grinding so deep inside…!"
"Aaah… Erina's pussy is so fucking hot. It's squeezing me like a hand… so damn good…!"
"Nngh! Ah, nnh! S-So deep…! More, give me more…!"
Pressing Erina into the sofa, I thrust even deeper. I wrapped my hands around her neck for a deep kiss while continuing my relentless pistoning.
The lewd wet sounds of sex filled the room, along with Erina's moans, driving my arousal higher.
"Erina, I love you. I'll cherish you forever. I'll make you happy for the rest of your life. …So stay by my side forever."
"I love you too! Shogo-kun… I love you so much…! So…"
Erina brought her mouth to my ear and, in a voice sweeter than any dessert in the world, made a plea that melted my very instincts.
"…Cum… lots and lots… inside Erina's pussy… ♡"
I thrust my cock deep and crushed her cervix with my glans.
I unleashed everything I had into the womb that had come down seeking my seed.
"~~~!!! …Ah, aah…!!"
"…Fuck, that feels so good~"
Erina stretched her legs straight out to her toes and trembled all over. The sight of her taking my lust filled me with unbearable affection.
No matter how many years passed, this affection would never disappear.
"…Shogo-kun… One more time?"
"Of course. ──We're just getting started."
"Ahaha… Shogo-kun ♡"
Just as I had done until now, I would continue to follow my desires.
In this second life.
Together with the women who love me, and whom I love.
──The End──

Author's Note: With this, the story is now complete! Thank you to everyone who has read this far. To celebrate the finale, I would be thrilled if you could leave a final Comment or Review!!
Since this is the final chapter, I'd like to give a brief overview of where the characters ended up.
Character Aftermaths:
Santoku Shogo: He successfully became the head of the Santoku family and finally took control of the culinary world as the Food Overlord. Since culinary prowess can equate to absolute power in this world, he has essentially achieved world conquest.
He fathered children with Erina, Hisako, Ryoko, Alice, Miyoko, Yaeko, Nene, Mea, Rindo, Sonoka, Berta, Sheila, and Lantabi—he is currently the father of sixteen children.
SantokuErina : The key figure who helped Shogo grow the Santoku Group at a rapid pace. As a world-class chef wielding the God's Tongue, her name is often mentioned as the strongest chef in existence.
She married Shogo immediately upon graduation and became pregnant shortly after, giving birth to a healthy boy. Recently, perhaps due to Shogo's "training," her libido has increased, and she enjoys their intimacy while hoping for a second child.
Hisako Arato: Works as Erina's secretary. She became pregnant after high school graduation and gave birth to a girl. She is currently pregnant with her second child and lives at Shogo's family home along with Alice.
Alice Nakiri: Currently living under the pretext of helping Shogo with work while hiding her pregnancy from the Nakiri family. She is fully enjoying her life as an expectant mother, finding excitement in the tension of keeping the secret.
Sakaki Ryok : Active as Rindo's assistant. She became pregnant after high school graduation and gave birth to a girl. She balances work and childcare perfectly while looking forward to her private time with Shogo.
Miyoko Hojo: Head of the Chinese Cuisine Division. She became pregnant after high school and gave birth to a boy. While she remains as intimidating and powerful as ever, her greatest pleasure is having Shogo play with her anus.
Kinokuni Nene: Head of the Japanese Cuisine Division. She became pregnant at 19 and gave birth to a girl. Recently, she has developed a fetish for the rope marks left on her body from bondage.
Yanai Mea: Active as Nene's assistant. She became pregnant at 19 and gave birth to a girl. She isn't satisfied unless she reaches a climax through tickling at least once every three days; she often has Nene tickle her while she masturbates.
Rindo Kobayashi: The No. 2 chef of the Santoku Group. She became pregnant after high school and gave birth to a boy. She works quite seriously to meet Shogo's expectations. Lately, she has developed a preference for being tightly restrained and brought to climax repeatedly by Shogo, leaning more toward the masochistic side.
Sonoka Kikuchi: Head of the Western Cuisine Division. She became pregnant at 19 and gave birth to a girl. Shortly after, she became pregnant with twin girls, making her a mother of three. Due to her constitution, she produces a lot of breast milk, and she finds her greatest happiness in "milking play" with Shogo.
Berta & Sheila: Heads of the Santoku Group's Culinary Research Institute. They both became pregnant at the same time at age 18 and both gave birth to girls. Since Shogo grants them a "wish" every time they produce results, they approach their work with extreme seriousness every day. Their favorite act is performing sumata (thigh sex) together on Shogo while in a scissoring position.
Lanterby: A First-Class Executive Officer of the WGO. She became pregnant at 25 and gave birth to a girl. She holds the vital role of assigning stars to the Santoku Group's restaurants. As a secret hobby, she has awakened to the world of cosplay and has become a celebrity in that community.
Minegasaki Yaeko: Shogo's personal secretary. She became pregnant at 25 and gave birth to a boy. She supports Shogo by handling everything from daily schedules to general chores. She has a love for adult toys, and her collection of vibrators has exceeded 100.
Yukihira Soma: Owner of Restaurant Yukihira. He was traveling the world until recently but has since settled down. He looks forward to the monthly drinking sessions with Shogo and eagerly awaits the day they will finally have their ultimate showdown.
Yukihira Megumi: Married Soma at 19 and gave birth to a girl at 20. Perhaps from staying by Soma's side, she has grown remarkably strong, both physically and mentally.
That is all! Thank you very much for reading!!
