The night dawned.

  I’ve been up all night.

  However, the discussion between the demon king, Miyo, and Governor Ifrus, which is taking place at Marla in Big Roof Shashaato, is yet to end.

  I thought of going home first but I’ll just receive a report about this later so I’d rather wait.

  I have some questions to ask too-

  0-

  However, not all of us want to see the conclusion.

  Like Gucci, Prada, and Hermes, they left immediately saying they had their own things they had to attend to.

  They told me that I’m free to call them whenever I need them…


  And how do I call them up?

  Do I call them by making a Guronde scale mirror like what I did some time ago?

  No, Gucci strongly prohibited me from doing it again.

  Well, I’ll leave the calling them to Dors and Doraim.

  Beton-san, together with the members of the Joro Merchant Group, who came to pick her up, went to the administrative building of Shashaato City for explanation…and it will be before Governor Ifrus himself.

  Governor Ifrus is here though. Why do they even need to go there?

  After explaining the situation, they would apologize to Governor Ifrus there?

  Oh, so there’s a person who’s in charge of formality there and they’ll meet him first.

  However, is that person in charge of formality working at this hour…


  Already waiting at the entrance?

  Well, I guess that you have to explain your circumstances as soon as possible to make a good impression but if you overdo it, it will have the opposite effect.

  Don’t overdo it.

  Governor Ifrus and Miyo wrote something on a wooden board and handed it to Beton-san.

  I hope it won’t be something harsher than the demon king’s punishment.

  Alfred, Ursa, and Tiselle returned to the academy.

  They still have to attend classes.

  Naturally.

  They are scheduled to return to the village during school vacation so let’s talk again when the time comes.

  Beezel sent the children back using his teleportation magic.

  I apologize even though you’re already tired.

  And thank you.

  When Beezel came back using his teleportation magic, he returned to the royal castle in the royal capital together with Randan, Glatts, and Hou. Of course, he used his teleportation magic again.

  Good luck with your work.

  However, is it okay for you to leave the demon king behind?

  Well, there are teleportation gates so I guess he can go back alone.

  Next, Bronn.

  It seems like he has a job of picking up someone after this so he decides to head to the inn to get some sleep.

  Sorry for keeping you until morning.

  Also, half of the high elves and all of the lizardmen had returned to the village using the teleportation gate.

  A good number of people have come out of the village.

  Considering the work we have to do today, I hope everyone can go back early and get some rest.

  ………


  You need to rest.

  You can work later.

  Like me, Dors, and Doraim, Ann and the oni maids, did not return to the village and started doing their thing.

  They are now equipped with aprons and are using Marla’s equipment to cook.

  What they are cooking is not breakfast.

  We already ate before coming to Shashaato City.

  It must be some kind of nuisance fee for renting this place.

  Ah, of course, we got permission from Marcos, the acting manager, before renting this place.

  I mean, Marcos is cooking with us but, is this okay?

  「It’s a study session.」


  Ah, so what they are making is your new curry.

  I see.

  By the way, the new curry they are making is a radish curry with radish as the main ingredient.

  Oh, it’s not just a curry with radish.

  It’s a dry curry which means it is cooked without water.

  Since no water is used, all its liquid comes from the vegetables but this causes the main ingredient, radish, to fall apart.

  However, if you cook radish separately, the radish will not soak up and won’t have that much flavor.

  This is a dish that takes a lot of skill which Ann and her team can do.

  Doraim, why are you calling Ann “teacher*”?

  Note: Not sensei but shishou.

  Dors’ expression looks kind of funny.

  Also, it takes time to cook waterless, right?

  No, I don’t mind but you guys are up all night too.

  Dors and Doraim are dragons so they can probably handle staying up all night for a day or two but Ann and the other oni maids are…ah, you’re fine too?

  You can even go seven days straight if necessary?

  Oh, don’t work too hard.

  Though I’m not the one to say that since I stayed up all night too. Let’s get a good night’s sleep later-

  0-

  The rest stayed around as my guards.

  The high elves are hiding so it looks like there’s only me and Loo here.

  It’s like we’re on a date.

  ………


  What is it, flying carpet?

  Why are you between me and Loo?

  I can’t see Loo’s face.

  You shouldn’t interrupt our date.

  It doesn’t look like a date because Loo is armed?

  It looks like I’m being interrogated?

  Hahahahaha.

  Loo, go borrow the employee’s waiting room and get changed.

  Also, the katana-like swords of the oni maids with you.

  They put them on the desk because it’s in the way of cooking but that’s dangerous.
