Labyrinth Restaurant

"Hello, Angelica, Eric."

"Ah, yesterday's sister"

"Hello"

After a little time, the brave man (I) returned to the venue to speak up when he saw the two people he met yesterday. The two seem to be pinching sweet objects such as fruits and treats prepared in the corner of the venue.

"The treats here, they're all so delicious"

"We rarely eat sugar sweets in our villages."

And I came up with three hands of marshmallows from a mountain of sweets, and I said unto them both.

"If you like sweets, how about this kind of eating?

I stabbed a marshmallow at the end of the holy sword, which I did like a skewer, and moved to a nearby baking table. And I seared the surface of the marshmallow so lightly that my eyes burned, and offered the skewers to both of us.

"Yes, go ahead. Be careful not to burn me."

"Uh, thank you. Wow, hot... yummy"

"Thank you. Wow, it looks like the sweetness got stronger when I put it through the fire"

The passing of fire through the marshmallows adds sweetness to the fragrance and the contents melt moderately to change from the original elastic texture to a troll texture. It's a classic way to eat at camp and barbecue in Japan, but apparently they both liked it.

"Would you guys like to try it?"

Did they inspire curiosity when I recommended them, or they stabbed the finished marshmallows they had taken from the mountains of sweets and started baking them themselves.

"Wow, it's melting!?"

"Angelica, wasn't the fire too close?

"The trick is to cook it well over an open fire."

The first few seemed to fail to melt or have a shallow fever, but they both improved quickly enough to cook marshmallows well.

"Marshmallows are delicious even if melted in warm tea."

"Oh, that looks delicious. Let's try it."

Then I'll get you some tea.

Looks like you two were going to try the way you just taught them to eat quickly. Eric went to get tea to the place where he was distributing drinks.

"Angelica is close to Eric, right?"

"Oh, so it looks...... can you see it?

"It's not a salutation, it's an easy way to talk. I'm sure he's not that far away from home."

"... the only kids in the village that are as old are the eagles, so Eric and I have been together ever since we were babies"

"You're childhood friendly."

"Yeah, Eric would be quiet even though he was a boy, and he was a very crybaby when he was younger than he is now. Well, now that I remember it, I think the eagle was mostly making me cry. Cowardly, crying, blunt... but you're so sweet."

I heard the last thing I added and pinned it. This, I mean, I guess that's what this is about.

"hehe, good luck"

"Yeah, I'll do my best. Thank you, sister."

Eric with three cups of tea there is back.

"What were you two talking about?

"Don't tell Eric, eh?"

"It's just a girl's secret, hehe"

I laughed face to face with Angelica.

The melted marshmallows are sweet enough to melt, but a little bitter too. Maybe this is what love tastes like.

"Demon King, please take this pork skewer next."

"Thank you, Alice. Yeah, yummy."

As I broke up with Angelica and walked through the venue, I found myself looking like the Demon King and Alice. Apparently Alice cooks one after the other and the Demon King eats it for her.

"Hello"

"Oh, brave man, how about one if you like"

I received a pork skewer offered by Alice and took a bite, being careful not to let the fat jump on my clothes. The flavour of the meat and the sweetness of the fat spreads in the mouth juicy.

"Demon King, do you want to turn it into a vegetable next? It's bad for your health when it's all meat."

"Then I guess I'll get a vegetable skewer next time"

Alice is sweet enough to take care of the Demon King. It also doesn't look very different from your usual work of serving in a restaurant, but I'm very excited to see if you enjoy taking care of the Demon King.

I've already eaten quite a bit today, too, but I was starving when I saw the demon king eating it looking delicious. I took the mushroom butter roasted on the baking table and took it to the dish. Shiitake, eringi and enoki cut into bite sizes, shimeji, and those mushrooms are well tamed with the taste of butter.

I took the soy sauce from the seasoning container prepared by the side of the baking table and sprinkled it, squeezing the lemon further and adding the acidity. Butter soy sauce and lemon flavors have been added to the original mushroom flavor, making this the only dish that will give you the satisfaction that seems to put up the main dish.

I spoke to the demon kings while eating mushrooms.

"Today's barbecue is a huge success"

"Well, it looks like you've all been happy."

"Yeah, maybe we could hold these kind of events on a regular basis for this"

Looking around, humans and demons alike, young and old, all seem to enjoy themselves. Many of the participants on the human side are great from all over the country, but today it seems that most of them are eating and drinking as they please without escorts because of their rudeness.

If you look elsewhere, a swordsman-style human young man is single-handedly engaged in swordsmanship rigging with a tuno-grown demon man and alcohol. We seem to be having an intense discussion about the difference between the theory of swordsmanship in the demonic and human worlds.

All the participants on the human side are adults, but some of the Demons seem to be coming with children. The kids seem to enjoy running around with sweets and toys in their hands. It's harrowing to see if they'll fall or not, but the kids are cleverly running through people's gaps with no worries.

Some people, both human and demonic, are still solidified between themselves as to whether there is a separation from each other, but it doesn't seem as if those people have a separate hostility towards the other. Looks like people are starting a conversation with Potty Potty because of his alcoholic and culinary powers.

"What's going to happen to this world?

I asked the Demon King and Alice, and against myself.

"I think we'll all get along and have a better world."

These are the words of the Demon King. I think it's a simple or pure, demon-king kind of answer. In contrast, Alice's answer was a little more realistic.

"... between those with appearance, values, life expectancy, and many other differences, and there will be many incompatible parts. We are getting along on this occasion today, but that is why I am too optimistic that we can do the same throughout the world, I think. But..."

Alice cut the words once and then continued with a grin.

"Nothing about strife even happens in the same species, even if it's not between different worlds. Still, the demon world and the human world have managed to do something about it before, so I'm sure we'll be able to do the same."

That was Alice's answer.

"Right, I'm sure you can handle it"

I remember the days since I was summoned to this world, and then I answered that with a certainty from the bottom of my heart.

◆ ◆ ◆

Problems are piling up and difficulties await that will be inevitable in the future. Maybe you regret connecting the two worlds.

Still, humans and demons can do it this way somehow. The two worlds I've seen are only a fraction if seen from the whole, but the people I've met deserve to believe. Whatever happens, there's no such thing as a brave man, I can believe they can live hard on their own.

"Haha."

Nature and laughter spilled. I'm sure this is how you feel about shoulder loads dropping.

I don't need brave men in this world anymore.

I don't need me in this world anymore.
