He Didn't Want to Be the Center of Attention, Hence, after Defeating the Demon Lord, He Became
Chapter 56 The Road to Snowmelting and From Apprentice to Master
The evening part opens, and customers come to the store one after the other. I looked at the face of the Demon King Crusaders wearing masks and wondered if I could still feel the beauty underneath the masks. The male customer was worried about his bare face, but he did not ask for any innocence.
Cody is popular with female customers, and this is the first time she's been there. Eileen also pleasantly guides the guests to their seats and passes the order with a passing voice.
A regular slum-dwelling man toasts, a woman dressed for no reason plays her favorite blend in the corner seat, and Rigel and McKinley face each other on Ale's jock, and rarely Zeke joins the seat.
Lia, Liza, and Sakuya seemed concerned about their master. Our master swallowed his work faster than I imagined, and with Cody Eileen, the hall went around without a problem to the extent that he was a little concerned about the lack of customer service.
The master was watching to be here any time while he was doing his job. Mia, trapped by the collar, is still afraid of her master.
Master hasn't said an apology yet. He told me he was involved in Miami's kidnapping, and he thought he'd be punished by his father, Gustave, but he didn't.
Even after my daughter was taken, Gustave - no, I'm older, so I should be honored. I was surprised that Mr. Gustave didn't blame his master.
The werewolf parents and children are now sitting at the counter and looking restless. Her daughter Mia is shrinking herself with her hands on her lap, but the hustle and bustle of the tavern seems fresh and the fluffy tail shakes fluffily with the sound, indicating that she is intrigued.
"... the beast over there usually shows his ears. When I walked outside, most people hid it in the hood. Are you sure this tavern doesn't discriminate against beasts?"
"Not everyone in King's Landing is biased against the Beast. Rhea's master is a human woman who heads the Knights. We both trust each other so much that we can't imitate each other."
"Well... not all the beasts who live in King's Landing are under contempt."
Mr. Gustave strokes the wolf's hairy beard and draws his triangular ear. The Beast had feelings in his ears - it was the same with Mimia, taking the hood while listening. I wonder if it is worn in my ears.
Still, his father was Goki himself, but his daughter was small - and so was Yuma's house, so Yuma seemed to feel close to her parents and children. Under Verlaine's guidance at the counter, he pours the black ale bubbles that he puts on Mr. Gustave. Miralka volunteered to make a drink to serve to Miamia. Like a professor, he weighs the ingredients using scales to make recipes without any craziness.
"Thank you for your patience, customer"
"Nh, I haven't asked for anything yet."
"Your customer... no, it's the owner."
It was the same flow as usual, but if it wasn't from a drunk drinking in the corner, there was something subtle and embarrassing. Mr. Gustave received the black ale and was stunned for a while, but smiled at his mouth.
"Mia, can I have a drink? Dad, I'm not getting drunk today."
"... you don't have to worry about me. Dad, I like alcohol, so drink plenty."
At a seemingly inferred age, the way you talk is because the shock of being caught is still there - and if you think so, your chest gets stuck.
"I don't think you need to worry about anything... but the Moon Rabbit Clan named Sakuya led me to my daughter. It was your guild that helped my daughter. I don't know why your buddy made that collar, but I don't know what's hard for me. One thing I can tell you is that Mia won't be happy where I avenged her."
"... I'm still scared that he made a collar. But if this guild helped me, they'll see to it that he doesn't do anything wrong. Then I can rest assured."
Master is looking at us from afar and listening to the conversation. When I look at those eyes, I don't even know what I'm thinking.
"With my simple head, I can't catch up at all. It's too complicated for a benefactor to have a hateful opponent. Especially if that abominable opponent becomes such a girl. If you're going to do evil, I want you to look more vicious."
"... Mr. Gustave. Mia, will you forgive me?
"... to tell the truth, I don't remember when I was a beast, so I stayed with the doctor and my father came. That's why I was scared only when I was wearing a collar. But it's already off."
That's what she says to show her neck. There were no bruises (bruises) from being held in captivity even after the collar. It will also depend on the resilience of the Beast.
"I wanted to thank you here. Sakuya-san said he serves the great people here."
Mia found out why this guild and us are relatively favorable. Because I'm grateful to Sakuya for helping Mia and bringing her in with her father.
And it was Sakuya-san's way of speaking that I never suspected that I was working with my master to capture the Beast. Normally, it's no wonder they suspect me of conspiracy by looking at my relationship with my mentor.
"Sorry to interrupt your important conversation. Yale is a bubble to enjoy, so please drink it before it disappears."
"Oh, I see. Now... I've taken care of my daughter. Let me thank you again."
"... Dad, how about a toast?
Mia folds Mr. Gustave's elbow. And he smiled bitterly, and pulled his body so that his daughter could toast, and the three of them put together a cup.
Cheers.
"Oh, I'm sorry. My daughter seemed to admire this kind of interaction in a tavern."
"When I grow up, I can drink like my father, so I'm looking forward to it... but it's not like I'm drinking."
"It's a little early for you. In King's Landing, drinking from the age of 16 isn't a problem."
Mr Gustave knows the laws of King's Landing. He who came to help his daughter didn't seem to have a good impression of the capital, but he didn't seem to want to know anything about it at all.
The Beasts are trying to show understanding to humans. Still, many people throw themselves away because of the fear that "Wesen are stronger than humans and can be destroyed if they become a group."
Some areas are actually controlled by beasts, so some parts are impossible. But what humans do in King's Landing is domination by wielding power as a majority and exerting pressure on the Beast.
"Differences in race may not be acceptable to all humans. However, I think it would be better if I could reduce the amount of waste now. Never again will human beings use beasts."
"... if there are more people like you, maybe that's not impossible. No, I know I should do something. My father is already old, so I will soon be the next chief. As a representative of the werewolves, I want to work with other Werewolves and have a place to reconcile with humans."
Mr. Gustave and Rico, the grandson of the Tiger clan chief. With their help, representatives of all the beasts of the Kingdom of Albain and of the human side may meet together to think about the future of all species.
There is also the tendency to negotiate with His Majesty the King and have him call a meeting of all races on a large scale. But the first thing I need to do is move in the shadows and get an understanding of each species, as I have always done.
The Beast is vigilant of kingdom interference and lives dispersed around the world. It won't be easy to get them together. We need to convince the kingdom's veterinarians beforehand, soften attitudes, and guide mutual understanding. Otherwise, tragedies can happen.
If humans and beasts reconcile, it will be an event that will remain in the Kingdom's history.
I want to leave the engraving of the name to the person standing on the front stage. All I do is set the table - yes, let Manarina, the son of His Majesty the King and heir to the throne, have flowers lasting for a hundred or thousand years. Of course, we need to talk to her and draw on her intentions.
Everything is not because I want to apologize on behalf of my master.
Just as I talked to the Beasts and found out what I was thinking, I just felt like doing something.
"... let's put aside the hard story for now. I've never had a drink like this in my village."
With his mouth shut on the black ale jock, Mr Gustave drank a lot.
So, when he solidified - he poured the remaining black ale all at once into his throat.
"Eh... kahh... what is this? What's the matter? This liquor... is good. Too much...!
The eyes were already red with a full eye and Mr Gustave said excitedly. Mia was surprised next door, but after watching her father drink, she saw her own drink.
"White Moon" is a drink divided into two layers, white and yellow, with a pulpy syrup of "Moonberry" favorite by the werewolves in the milk. Did you notice it just because of the fragrance? Mia held it with both hands and put her mouth around the glass.
After a quick sip, Mia's eyes begin to shine. Verlaine and I, and Miralka and Yuma in the counter, look at each other and whisper, but they don't make a sound - they're too impressed.
Mr. Gustave puts his hand on his daughter's head and calms her down. Mia blushed her face with embarrassment, but put her mouth on the drink again.
The beast loves the fruit of the land where he grew up, and the young and the old eat it in every way. The taste of the favorite was brought out this time in the direction of sweetness.
The honey used to make Moonberry syrup was a special honey harvested in a monster's nest called "Queen Killerbee", and she seemed to like its elegant sweetness.
"... I've never eaten such sweet moonberries. It looks delicious even if you apply it to bread."
"We have some bottles for you to take home, so please bring them as a souvenir if you'd like. I think I can take it back to the village because it will last a long time."
"Oh, I want to feed my wife as well as my daughter. Even if you want to eat something sweet, it's a land that's hard to get...."
Sugar is a precious commodity and is not available at all in the Kingdom of Albain and in some regions. In such places, sugar brought in by caravans is rarely exchanged for gold of the same weight.
Queen Killerby is a poisonous and dangerous monster to the general public, but I'm not afraid because I can detoxify it, and I've dived into the nest and looked into its ecology. As a result, Killer Bees may be able to keep bees and mass produce honey, but if they can tell the Beast how, they will also get sweetness on their own.
"We don't know each other's cultures well. I think that the Werewolf specialty can move many human hearts, just as Black Ale delighted Mr. Gustave. It may be a cash idea, but that's how I want to bridge the gap."
"... perhaps I just like unparalleled alcohol? I just wanted to say that. You have a point."
Yuma pours another ale, passes it to Verlaine and serves it to Mr. Gustave. The second cup came out, and Mr. Gustave put joy on his face like a boy, weighed himself in front of his daughter, and coughed.
"Kohon. I didn't think about food culture interaction... Maybe there's a way to convince our brothers. To be honest, the werewolves have a lot of liquor like me... huh? This fragrant smell..."
"It's not just about alcohol. This is a rib rose vanilla grill."
When I served the food thinking it would suit my liquor, my parents' and children's stomachs rang as if they had not eaten anything.
"... is this a trident tool and a knife to eat?
"Now I'm going to tell you a little bit about how to do this."
Werewolves usually eat with their hands. The Tigers used dishes, but there seemed to be a difference between the races.
Mimia used dishes to look around, put up with what she was about to eat with her hands, and initially carried the meat that Verlaine had cut into her mouth.
"Mugh...!
"~ ~ ~ ~!"
Both tails bounce. Mia was so impressed that she jumped on the chair that she slapped her father in the back with excitement. Looking at them from the hall, Cody and Eileen laughed with joy.
"What is this meat... the area near this bone shouldn't be so soft. What the hell am I supposed to do...?"
"If you put it in fruit juice or soak it in milk, the fiber of the meat becomes softer."
"... I know you're going to say something like this when your cheeks fall off. Wow... this meat is not meat. I think it's something more delicious."
Meat also changes taste depending on the cooking method. I think we should not leave it to humans alone, but also tell the beasts who say they love unparalleled meat.
And they didn't eat any vegetables at all, so they ate the salad that Miralka brought from the kitchen and tasted the unknown impression again - but they were happy no matter what they ate, so the cook looked happy from the kitchen.
◆ ◇ ◆
Until the shop was closed, Gustave's parents and children pounded on drinks and alcohol, and at the end Gustave was in a good mood and singing shoulder-to-shoulder with Rigellians. At these times, the brightness with which anyone in Rigel can interact is reliable.
Zeke was involved, but when he and Mizha found out that they were brothers and sisters, Mr. Gustave introduced Mia to his daughter and Mizha was pleased. Knowing that their situation was approaching, they quickly became closer, Mia's mouth increased, and smiles became visible.
--But the fun time is too soon.
Gustave finally called out to Mimia, who was talking to Mizha until the store was closed.
"Mia, it's time you took your time. There's gonna be some cleaning up."
"... okay. See you later, Mizuha."
Yeah, come back, Mia.
I'll escort the two of you to the store. Mr. Gustave said to his master, who had been looking at him from a distance, without saying anything for a long time.
"Me and Mia got help from this guild. For that, I'll take care of what you did. But if we forgive you, the laws of this country will judge you."
"I'll get any punishment. It's the only way to respond to what you've done to me, Dee."
I see. Then I'm done. Mia, what do we do?
When Gustave heard, Mia walked in front of her master as if she had decided.
"... you have to tell oniichan I'm sorry, not me."
"... yeah. From now on, it's not enough to apologize every day."
How Mia perceives my relationship with her mentor is sharper than she imagined.
"It's never going to be bad again," says uncle. I'll see you later. Alliance master "
"Be careful on the road. If anything happens, you can always count on us."
The werewolf parents and children leave the store. At the end, Mia lowered her head and went after her father.
"... well. Dick, I've just finished a big job and I think there's a lot of work to be done. Is there anything I can do for you?
Cody says Rigel and McKinley come out from the side and interrupt.
"Niisan, that wolf's uncle was so happy! It's been a long time since I saw my daughter laugh!
"I'm glad we made friends at the same age. This is also because people are gathered under the virtues of the master."
McKinley once in a while says a nasty smell from a superior man, but I think that's the good thing about this man. They can also do well with hot blood type Rigel.
And next, Rhea and Sakuya come with their serious faces. They've been drinking with each other all day, and they seem to have gotten closer.
"Solving Wesen and Human Problems… Sometimes I thought it wasn't part of the problem dealt with by the Adventurer Alliance. But this alliance led by the Master....."
"I follow the will of the master. Ever and ever. Use as much as you can."
"Thank you both. I'll see what I can do to meet my expectations."
The Demon King Crusaders worked hard until late today. I'm just borrowing more from them.
"Never stand out again... Is there anything we can do to help?
"That was a big idea for you, but I don't think it's bad. If anyone opposes reconciliation, they will be destroyed."
"Anyone who talks will understand. And we are all led to the promised land."
"It's like I'm going to heaven... Yuma, so I'll tell your father that I can't help it, so I can be the representative of the demons. I've always wondered because of the close proximity between the Wesen and the Ghosts. We should get along anyway."
All four of them, as long as they are still unanimous and reliable. But if we were old people, we wouldn't have had the motive to "make the world better."
Cody, who was thinking about it from the beginning, is as righteous as ever. After five years, I think I was able to catch up with her.
"My brother and I were thrilled to hear your story. It was fate to join this guild."
"Alliance Master, I fully agree with that desire."
"I can't believe how serious Dick is... because he met someone like you?
Mizha and Zeke are followed by Lisa. The Master was introduced to all the guild members who came to the store today.
"... I'm not a master anymore. Dee, there's nothing to teach you anymore, so I'm in a position to teach you."
"Oh, can you teach me... is that a hands-on move? You mean you're not going to sleep tonight?
"That's my line... I'm not gonna say it all my life."
"So, what is Master going to teach you? Let me know for the after-school."
In response to Verlaine's question, the master thought for a while - for the first time since wearing the maid's clothes, he replied with a faint smile.
"Everyone laughs when they hear it. I'm sure everybody knows the obvious, Dee."
The answer will come after the Master has been able to atone for his sins.
hurting people, trying to trample their minds. Master will never repeat that again.
Will that end in expectation or will it? He was once a disgraceful apprentice, but I wanted to keep an eye on her from now on.
