Chapter 309 Is it smooth or not?

"It feels like the development of things has become a little strange..."

Mu Xiu flipped through the stack of resumes in his hand one by one, his expression became more and more strange.

"Let's say it goes well, but it's not what I originally imagined. Let's say it's not smooth, but I think it might be better like this..."

The stack of resumes in his hand was very thick, and it looked like there might have been hundreds of copies.The reason for this is because he bought all the maid coffee shops in Tokyo, and planned to transform them into a chain business according to his own wishes.

It doesn't matter even if you lose money, he was just trying to cast a wide net, not to make money.

After all, if only one coffee shop is recruiting, it is difficult to ensure that the two demons who are almost out of water and ammunition can be accurately captured.

He didn't have a master ball in his hand, and instead of thinking about it, he might as well buy a rice cooker and exchange it for the "Magic Seal Wave" skill.

But if you take down all the coffee shops in the city, set out recruitment terms that those two devils can't refuse, and make sure that the advertisements are placed where they can see them no matter where they are... that's a different matter.

It can be said that the chances are much greater in this way, and it can even be said that it is a sure thing.

however--

"Unexpected..."

Mu Xiu nimbly picked out two forms from the stack of resumes in his hands, staring at the names and the applicant's profile photo, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

In the photo column on the first resume, there was a tall and gentle-looking young man with silver hair and brown eyes. His name was "Shiro Ashiya" written in proper handwriting.

The next column is the basic information such as "height 185cm", "weight 75kg".

Fortunately, at least he didn't write down "Age: 1500 years old", "Region of birth: Demon World", "Special skills or hobbies: Conquering the world"... etc., such cheating and real information.

Even if you say that, no one will believe it.

"It seems that the adaptability of those two demons is really strong enough, they can basically pretend to be normal earthlings..." Mu Xiu muttered to himself, but then frowned.

Because only Ashiya Shiro submitted a letter of intent, but Maou Sadao did not, which was completely contrary to the situation he had imagined before.

Although Ashiya Shiro is more talented in housekeeping than Maou Sadao, as long as he systematically trains for a period of time, even if he is not as good as an SSR-level housekeeper in debt, the difference is not too great...

It's just that Mu Xiu doesn't really want a housekeeper.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be good for him to use the man-making function of the big light sphere to create the most caring, loyal and excellent housekeeper?
Mu Xiu shook his head, denied that idea, and then thought carefully about how to deal with such a change.

He originally chose this method in order to restrain the two demons naturally, if he deliberately beat Ashiya Shiro back and replaced him with Maou Sadao...

——It seems a bit too purposeful, right?
"Creating humans? Wait, you guy...have the ability to create life on your own?"

Penglai Shan Huiye looked up from the PSP screen in surprise, she wondered if she had heard wrong just now, is it easy to step into that field?
"..."

"..."

"Ahem, Kaguya, what you said sounds really strange—I'm neither a hydra nor an earthworm, how could such a thing be done by myself!"

The corner of Mu Xiu's mouth twitched a few times, and then decisively chose to deny it.

"Well, just to remind you, I remember that earthworms are also cross-breeding!" Penglai Shan Huiye replied coldly, and then she continued to stare at Mu Xiu whose eyes were shaking violently.

"By the way, Your Royal Highness, what should I choose now?"

After a moment of silence, Mu Xiu blinked, pretending nothing happened, and handed over the two resumes in his hand.

"You should learn how to change the subject more effectively and without a trace, it's too stiff..." The girl with long black hair twitched her brows, but she also put down the phone in her hand and took the two resumes .

Mu Xiu pretended not to hear: "Shiro Ashiya can actually do it too. As the commander-in-chief of the devil and the right-hand man of the devil king, as long as he is restrained, the effect will be the same, it might as well be even better..."

"Then why don't you just choose him directly? Why are you still talking about this topic with my concubine?"

Penglai Shan Huiye frowned, showing a puzzled expression.

"The problem is another person, so I can't make a decision right now."

Mu Xiu laughed and said, "The other one is my classmate. She probably decided to come out to work because her parents' company went bankrupt. It's no wonder why she has always been depressed these days. I don't know why she chose to our coffee shop."

"...Is this what your clairvoyance foresaw?" Her Royal Highness was slightly confused.

She knew that Mu Xiu was not from her own world, but she didn't know that Mu Xiu was not from this world either.In her opinion, the guy who can even know his own original world is probably a guy who specializes in prophecy.

It just so happened that the other party had indeed awakened EX-level clairvoyance not long ago, and was able to see through the past and future, so it seemed reasonable.

"You can put it this way, it's not important anyway..."

Mu Xiu could only answer vaguely, he is now extremely glad that his explanations to Her Royal Highness and the various homework resources he gave her all screened out things about Gensokyo and the world he lives in. Any type of clue.

Otherwise, it's really hard to fool the past now.

"So? Are you planning to help her?"

Kaguya said casually, not bothering about it.She took a careful look at the resume in her hand, but she didn't find that this girl had any potential to be a maid, nor did she have any experience, so she frowned slightly.

"After all, he is one of the few friends I have... Well, I'm not boasting, I'm very confident that I don't have many friends!" Mu Xiu said with a normal expression, smiled heartily at her and gave her a thumbs up .

"It's really not boasting."

Penglai Shan Huiye took a deep look at him: "Since you think it might be embarrassing, then leave her as a concubine, and she is also a girl, anyway, it is much better than this."

She casually threw Ashiya Shiro's resume back, leaving only the one of Harukaze Chizakura.

"Since you've made a decision, it's fine, so let's do it for a week! It's not so abrupt to tell them that they were hired separately because of their outstanding performance after this period of time."

Mu Xiu nodded and made a final decision.

He really wanted to keep Harukaze Qianying, but considering that he was familiar with her, even if he pretended not to know her, it would probably be embarrassing, so he didn't make a decision right away.

But it's much easier to handle now, not as her own, but as Kaguya's maid, I think Chi Sakura will be greatly relieved by such an arrangement, right?
"Then, I'll go over and make arrangements—" Mu Xiu sorted out all his resumes, turned around and left the house.

"Well, see you later."

……

……

Time: March 3, 26:34 am.

Location: A Japanese-style room with a size of three pings can be seen everywhere.

"Master Demon King, after a week of hard work, I have finally been chosen!"

"Well, so what?"

In the center of the room, two men were sitting facing each other, facing the bruised kotatsu, seeming to be having a conversation.

"However, Lord Demon King. The job I found now is a full-time housekeeper."

The slender young man stood up slowly, and said to the person opposite him respectfully.

"Even if you can choose to come back to spend the night after eleven o'clock every night, and you can have a day off on Saturdays, you may need to take care of yourself at other times..."

The black-haired young man of moderate build raised his eyebrows, and immediately appeared very dissatisfied, but his dissatisfaction was due to another reason——

"It's annoying, Ashiya! Do you think that if I leave you, I will be an idiot who will starve to death!"

"No, that's not what I meant!" The slender man with silver hair and brown eyes said quickly, his calm and deep voice sounded a bit embarrassed.

"Although there is not much money left in the account, my job has stabilized. If you are willing, Lord Demon King..."

"I don't want to! I hate loans!" Maou Sadao resolutely vetoed, "What's more, there is a handling fee for the installment payment, right? I don't want to spend money on things that don't have a substance, so you don't need to talk about it anymore No, I won't agree."

"However, if you change to a better residence in advance..."

"No need, Ashiya, you have to remember that our original goal was to conquer the human world, not to improve living conditions!"

The devil said some strange words, stood up and waved his hands vigorously, "Now we have the capital to start gradually, and the next most important thing is to save..."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and took a deep breath: "—instead of wasting those capitals on such small things as moving, improving food and living conditions!"

"..."

"..."

Ashiya Shiro was silent for a while: "I'm very sorry, it's really because I'm too useless to wait. However, during the period of patience for the comeback, Lord Demon King is the symbol of leading us. You should work tirelessly and pay attention to your health. Set an example and be a role model, don’t you?”

After being told by his loyal subordinate, the Demon King bowed his head and seemed to be introspection.

However, Ashiya Shiro did not stop there, but continued with a sigh: "Konjac, cucumber, and milk... I always eat these things every day, and I hope that before I return there, I won't die suddenly of civilization disease." gone."

Their current situation is almost the same as that of humans, and their weak magic power can almost only be used to release the simplest hypnosis.

"It's annoying! Wordy! Alsiel, if you want to preach, you have to wait until we go back successfully!" Maou Sadao changed the subject impatiently, "There are concepts of demon kings and magic power in this world, and the concepts must have their roots , do you have a way to find out a way to restore the magic power?"

"I already have some clues, Lord Demon King, there is another form of mysterious power in this world, and the evil spirits and exorcists we encountered these days are one of them." Ashiya Shiro said in a low voice.

"And the person who recruited me also said that this job may last for a long time, and it needs to be exposed to the extraordinary side of the world, so I thought it through before I agreed, so I agreed to be his steward and work for him."

It was for this reason that he agreed to become a real full-time butler, otherwise he would probably prefer to stay in the coffee shop and play the role of a butler to greet the customers. Although the salary is not too high, it is at least enough.

"That's right, Ashiya, your choice is correct. Now that you have the clue, let's go and do it. I'm the devil king. I can take care of myself without you being around all the time!"

Maou Sadao was overjoyed.

Demon Grand Marshal Alsiel nodded heavily, but he didn't say a word.

Just as the devil Satan is gradually adapting to life in this world, and his size is getting smaller day by day, they have now become human beings both externally and internally.

It seems that it is gradually losing its direction for the future on the original path.

I always feel that if things go on like this, Lord Demon King will soon lower his goal from "conquering the world" to "being the manager of a part-time shop".

And I am afraid that I will gradually become a competent devil steward... Well, isn't this kind of future too bad?
