Labyrinth Restaurant

"Demon King, may I speak to you for a moment?

"What's wrong, Cosmos?

Some day, some time.

in the kitchen of the Demon King's shop.

Once again, Cosmos mentioned something unusual.

"Please don't say anything first, eat this one"

"Is this fried garlic? Yeah, fine."

What Cosmos removed from nowhere was garlic fried in oil and shaken with salt. It's more like an alcoholic knob than an intermittent meal (snack), but I don't see anything particularly odd about it. The demon king also said but kept his mouth shut.

"So here's the next one. Enjoy."

"Rice? Yeah, fine."

What the cosmos came out of without putting in their hair was rice where there was plenty of grated yams on top of the barley. It seems to be stretched in stock soy sauce beforehand and can be eaten swirly even as it is. It's a stranger choice than garlic for an intermittent meal, but the Demon King ate without a doubt.

"You kind of make me want some beef tongue. Next time, why don't we let it out on a daily basis?

"Yeah, I was wondering if I could do that too. By the way, demon king. It changes the story, but has there been any change in your physical condition or mood?

"Nothing. Just the way it always is, right?

"Well, let's move on."

Confirming that the Demon King has no such changes, Cosmos has been offering more food after food. Poached eel, fried oysters, stir-fried levanilla, and more. Whatever you take a bite or two, each has about a regular serving or two.

It's no longer a lot more than a regular meal instead of an intermittent meal, but the Demon King also tried his best to eat it all up because it was prepared by his daughter.

"Ugh, a treat. It was delicious."

"No, you were rude. Next time…"

"Um, I'm sorry, but I might not be able to eat any more now on the boulder. I'm already hungry. If there's anything else, I'll take it today and set it aside and eat it again tomorrow."

"Rest assured. All you have to do is drink after dinner. Come on, gooey, take a breath."

"Yeah, well, that's about it... that's kind of an unusual flavor, isn't it?

And the last thing Cosmos has served is a vial to the point where it fits in the palm of one hand. The label is illustrative with mummies, spoons and thoughts. Probably made in Japan from the letters in the ingredients list next to the illustration. The Demon King drank the monstrous drink as he was told.

"Demon King, I ask you again, is there any change in mood or physical condition?

"Hmm, I'm not sure if they say that."

"Hmm, I thought that if I ate all that, it would work somehow, but was it a failure?"

Well, there still seemed to be some thought behind the fact that Cosmos was feeding the Demon King. From this appearance, apparently, it didn't turn out as expected.

"The man pinched it in his little ear when he felt murky and horny when he ate that hand. More specifically, the shape of the flesh has partially changed to become a mode of combat, etc."

"Really?

"It seems so, but maybe it was just a myth. No, it is possible that he was deactivated in the constitution of the Demon King. Well, I can't be sure of all this."

"I'm kind of sorry if I let you down."

The purpose of Cosmos seemed to be to use the supposedly energetic food to uplift the mood of the Demon King in certain directions. Unfortunately, that prospect has ended in failure, though.

"So, Cosmos. Why would you do that again?

"Nothing... The Demon King is dating Alice and Lisa, right?"

"Yeah, right?

"And yet there's no sign of a slight hand in either of them. I mean, I'm not funny."

"No... see, right? That kind of thing has other feelings and conveniences."

"If you've been waiting for the convenience of those hectic women, nothing will change after a hundred years, will it? Even the Demon King wouldn't be a dead grandfather with any interest in that sort of thing. So this is where you are aggressively approaching by creating that kind of atmosphere from the Demon King...... Awwww!?"

While Cosmos was developing some sort of theory, there was a spiffy, whipping sound in the kitchen. Sounds like Alice, who was finally in the kitchen, slapped a good shot into Cosmos' thigh from behind.

"Dear Alice, all of a sudden from behind, I wonder what a low-kick looks like as a lady."

"What it looks like is this line here! If you think you've been talking to the Demon King for a long time, what are you talking about?!?"

"Oh my god, that's about Nani...... oops dangerous. Heh heh, looks like you should disperse this time. But don't forget. As long as there are people's troubles in this world, sooner or later there will be a second and third me......!

Cosmos ran away from the entrance and exit of the room in a strange and speedy motion, like a worm crawling on the ground, now hilarious about the illuminated low kick unleashed in the middle of the word. Once you've lost sight of it, but at the end of the day, it's probably impossible to catch you going after it now.

Only two more were left behind: the Demon King and Alice.

There is an unusual awkward atmosphere where the last minute topic is just the topic.

"Uh, Alice?

"Ha, ha, what is it, Demon King!?"

"No, well, that's what Cosmos said."

"... oh, what is that kid talking about! It's a whole lot of trouble!

Alice is acting like she's ostensibly angry with Cosmos, but this would just be trying to get off topic in the light. That's about what the dull, acclaimed Demon King found out. Anyway, the ripe tomatoes are blushing so much. It's obvious who saw this.

"Uh, the... Alice?

"Ha, what is it, Demon King!?"

"Cosmos said," Well, I'll wait. I think that's better after we feel good about each other properly, and so... well, in time, huh?

"Yes, of which...... of which......"

"Well, then let's get back to work!

"So, right! Good luck with your work, yes!

If we continue with this topic any further, Alice's mental load will have fallen beyond its limits. The two of them broke off the topic quickly and forcefully, to shake off the awkwardness, and they were always going to add more to the restaurant's work.
