Quadratic Element from Zero

"Stop talking nonsense, try your best to lead me out, what's the matter?"

Qiye looked at the girl in front of him and said, "If it wasn't for my mood today, your behavior would have long been regarded as a provocation by me..."

"Please don't be impulsive. We, who are also Demon Kings, don't need to fight unnecessary battles..."

The freckled girl shook her head and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't seem to explain the intention, you won't trust me... Then I will say it straight, I will play the Demon King game soon, if possible, please look at the same Demon King. For the sake of it, don't intervene."

"It seems that your purpose is this celebration..."

Qiye glanced at the realm wall behind him and said, "Is it for the fire dragon?"

The freckled girl shook her head and said, "Forgive me for the inconvenience of revealing the details. In short, if Your Excellency does not intervene in this matter, I will make a good report in the future..."

"You can't give me what I want..."

"So, do you want to intervene in this matter?"

A look of disappointment appeared on the face of the freckled girl, and she said, "I thought that the same demon king would be able to talk a little bit better. Since Your Excellency insists on this, then I have to leave you here..."

"Oh? Just you and the two in the dark?"

Qiye looked to the side of the air and said, "For the sake of your youth, I will not pursue this matter. I advise you, if you still have some self-knowledge, wait until I leave. Do it..."

"Master, do you want to..."

In the direction Qiye was staring at earlier, the space fluctuated like a water pattern, and a woman in white and a man in military uniform walked out of it.

"No, the opponent's strength should not be underestimated..."

The spotted girl frowned and said, "I didn't expect that an unknown demon king would suddenly appear at this juncture. The plan needs to be changed..."

"Would you like to ask the guild for help?"

The man in the military uniform was silent for a while and said, "Although those guys are not very popular, I have to say that their strength is still very strong..."

"...Lating, send a message for help..."

The spotted girl was silent for a while, and finally nodded and agreed. Even if she was to be ridiculed by her nominal partner this time, she would not care about these face-saving matters for her purposes.

"Yes! Master..."

The woman in white took out a flute and played strange notes one by one.

........................

On the commercial street, Kuyuan Asuka and Leticia were happily strolling down the street.

Not long after the two, who were a little hungry from running around, bought crepes at the stall, Kuyuan Asuka kept looking at the trophy in her hands with the eyes of a rare item.

Leticia opened her small mouth and bit the crepe, looked up at Jiuyuan Asuka beside her with a puzzled face, and said, "What's wrong? Asuka, haven't you seen this kind of food?"

"Huh? Yeah..."

Jiuyuan Asuka stared at the crepe in his hand for a long time and said, "Even if it is wrapped inside like ice cream, this warm crust is actually used to wrap cold Western desserts, although it looks very appetizing. It looks like it, but eating it directly like this is a bit lacking in temperament, plus this size, no matter how hard you try, you will get dirty around your mouth."

"is it?"

Leticia looked at the crepe in her hand with some surprise, and said, "When biting through this warm and soft skin, the thick red and sweet sauce overflowed into my mouth and spread. I really like the feeling of coming here.”

"It's really creepy to hear a vampire describe it like that..."

Kuyuan Asuka couldn't help but let out a wry smile. While she was still struggling to figure out how to bite, Leticia had eaten about half of the crepe and was licking her fingers.

"Forget it, almost all humans from outside Hakonigari will have a reaction like yours."

Leticia licked her fingers and said, "The food culture, buildings, ideas, races, etc. are completely different from the hometown... However, if you are able to enjoy all of these, you are considered to be integrated into Hakoniwa. If you don't eat it, you don't like it. Well, after all, life experience is a very precious asset."

"I...I understand."

Hearing Leticia say that, Kuto Asuka finally made up her mind and opened her mouth to bite down—but it was a bit too much.

Bananas and chocolate mousse gushed out from under the crepe crust and caught her mouth.

This made Kuyuan Asuka frown uncomfortably for a moment, but the sweetness that spread in his mouth was not bad.

Jiuyuan Asuka wiped the corners of his mouth with his fingers, licked his fingers, nodded and said, "...It's delicious."

"That's good……"

Leticia nodded and said, "If this level of food makes you hesitate, then you absolutely cannot go to the Southern District."

"Yes... is it?"

After finishing the licking, Jiuyuan Asuka looked at Leticia in surprise and said, "Is the food in the southern district so amazing?"

"It would be nice if it was just amazing, it's not just that..."

Leticia shook her head and said, "Anyway, the food over there is wild. I have been to all the restaurants run by the community with the flag of six scars. It's really exaggerated. Cut it! BBQ! When the other person told me that these three steps are called eating, even I felt very nervous."

As she spoke, Leticia's eyes suddenly drifted into the distance, and this memory made her tremble slightly.

Yuto Asuka on the side gave a wry smile to Leticia's reaction, and tried to challenge the second bite.

At this moment, a small shadow suddenly appeared in the corner of Kuyuan Asuka's line of sight.

It was under the shelf of a stall selling delicate carved glasses, and there was a man with a pointed hat—

"Leeticia, what is that...?"
