Chapter 92: Dining together



Chapter 92: Dining together

We came to the Zakurion Empire because of Yukurishisu′s invitation. While being drawn to the view of the capital from the window, we went to dinner first. Her younger brother and sister are waiting… they may be half-siblings. No, I don't even know the sex of the previous emperor. Maybe her mother was the empress.

After a few minutes of walking in the long corridor, we finally arrived at the dining hall when I thought that we might be lost. It is a castle after all, and the structure is really complex. I don't remember how many corners we passed to come here. Like a TV station, I wonder if it is hard to suppress even if attacked by any chance.

“Well then, we are here. Please enjoy yourself." Wo-kun

“Emm, what about the room we are staying..." Tsuchio

“A maid will guide you after the meal. I don't know where you are, but as long as you are in the castle, one person will be by your side, so please ask anything you'd like. They will answer to the extent that they can answer." Wo-kun

Well, there might be places they don't want us to be seen in the empire. It might be to monitor us so that we don't examine something without permission. I'm not going to do such a thing and it would be more helpful if I had a guide. Therefore, I don't care.

“Come to think of it, Yukurishisu. Did you tell your brother and sister that I'm human? They will understand by feeling my magic power.” Tsuchio

“Of course, I told them. Even if Tsuchio rampages, the troubles will quickly become ineffective, so there is no problem. They are people who have the ability." Yukurishisu

“It's so scary. Those who are watching from a while ago are also attendants." Tsuchio

“...I warned them to not be rude to Tsuchio since you are a guest. But the war has just ended.” Yukurishisu

“I understand, it's natural to be alert. If there was no one here, I would be hit." Tsuchio

From the time we reached Yukurishisu′s room, I felt something looking at us. They′re hiding their magical powers well, but this is too hidden. There was a strangely thin magical power there and Shadow-san felt uncomfortable. Perhaps the others are also aware of it, however they seemed to keep quiet. It was probably because there is no hostility.

“It would be helpful if you could say so. Even so, I had to say that you should not be aware of them... " Yukurishisu

“Everyone is sensitive to magic. I wasn't aware of it, but I was taught by Shadow-san." Tsuchio

“Still, these servants are the elite, perfect for the job. Normally, it's their top priority not to be seen by the people." Yukurishisu

“Well, I think you can call them the elite.... By the way, what about you, Ruu?” Tsuchio

“I felt their gaze, which couldn’t be helped, because they're monitoring us." Ruu

“They used some magic. Because they looked at father′s face, I asked elder sister Rin and Shadow-san to overwrite that magic. I wonder what kind of scary images they are watching now?" Lime

“Lime, well, you can do that... and I could have lent you some magic! You are better than Shadow-san, however she is just a shadow demon"

Well, did Shadow-san do that too? Well, that kind of hallucination magic is pretty good....

“Emm, with what did you rewrite the magic?" Tsuchio

“I asked them to reflect a video that they felt most fearful for several hours. Since we take away their sight and show it directly to their heads, they have to wait for the magical effect to cut out completely. I made the plan, Shadow-san created it and Rin overwrote the magic. Uhuhu, if they want to monitor father, at least they need do it in front of me." Lime

Uuwaa… are they okay or will they have a trauma? Seeing the footage they don't want to see for hours, is a torture.

“I was checking the magical response with my sensor and I ignored them because there was no hostility. Would it have been better to report it?" Nichrome

“Why didn't you report, Nichrome?" Tsuchio

“I was only watching them from here for the time being and have been monitored only for a few minutes. I wanted to avoid making master worried excessively, so I decided to report later." Nichrome

“Yes, that's a good decision. Indeed, I would like you to report a guy who is likely to be involved in our life, but it's troublesome to report such trivial things. Good decision, Nichrome. You've come to be able to think for yourself." Tsuchio

“Oh, thank you, Master. Since time has passed since I woke up, I gathered a lot of data. It is a good trend." Nichrome

“...Are the maids okay?” Yukurishisu

“Sorry, my daughter troubled..." Tsuchio

“No, Tsuchio doesn't have to apologize because I started this. Lime just did her job. With this, we will be going to monitor the servants directly." Yukurishisu

“That's good to hear… but is it really alright?” Tsuchio

“It is a good opportunity to demonstrate the results of their torture training. Let's say we eat without worrying." Yukurishisu

That's it and Yukurishisu opens the door of the dining room. We followed her and entered the room. Just before closing the door, I felt like I heard a scream of a woman from the distance....

The dining room was as luxurious as Yukurishisu’s private room. A chandelier made of crystal-like material illuminates the room and some paintings are displayed on the wall. Everything is a landscape painting, but it is a wonderful piece that could be understood even by amateurs like Tsuchio. That chandelier isn't made with candles. Do magic tools lights the lights?

In the center of the room is a long table accompanied by chairs that rich people often use. Well, this table is also made from high-quality wood… I have to pay close attention to not spill any dish.

There are already some people in this room and are sitting on the chairs. Both of them are showing their backs, so we can't see their faces from here. The arms of that male are really big and the height of the woman is over 2m slightly....I had predicted it, but they seems like dense people. And I realized again that this is a demon country.

“Oh, older sister! You're late, is that Tsuchio the human..."

“...Somehow, a strange feeling."

Two people raise from their seat and look back at my face. The man looks like a strong elder brother with a skinhead. With sunglasses, he would be perfect. The woman has somewhat sleepy half-eyes and although her height is high, her face looks like a young girl. She braids her brown hair to the back and a large horn protrudes from her forehead.

“You're rude to our guests, staring at their faces." Yukurishisu

“My bad, I'm curious about what human beings are like." Girl

“Small and weak.” Man

“Not at all..."

“I'm sorry. I'm Tyres, the second Prince of Zakurion empire. I was a bit defensive in front of humans, but you’re really weak, so I'm relieved.” Tyres

“Toururi, the 2nd Princess. I don't trust you yet. If you do something bad, I will immediately kill you." Toururi

Tyres was favorable contrary to his appearance, but the younger sister is going to kill me. She will be overlooked, but she is more intimidating. Behind me, all my familiars are also defeated by that hostility.

“Toururi! I've said many times that Tsuchio is my guest! Such an attitude is rude!” Yukurishisu

“...Huh, a guy who is defended by a woman is pathetic.” Toururi

Ugh, this is pretty harsh.... Because it is actually so, I don't make a complain. I was wondering if I could ever say something.

That said, Toururi-san returned to her chair and turned her face away. Haha, well this is an ordinary reaction. I’m just a special guest for Yukurishisu, Wo-san and Tyres.

“It’s worse since elder sister got to know you, Toururi has been so for a long time. She can't trust a human." Tyres

“I’m sorry, Tsuchio. I'll tell you a lot later." Yukurishisu

“It's okay, so please don't say it too strongly. I don't really care.” Tsuchio

We take the seats on the opposite side of Tyres-san and Toururi-san. Yukurishisu sits to my right, while all my familiars sit on my left side. Nichrome is sitting well, by bending her lamia body. The maids are coming and serving food on the tabletop. There are many dishes and they are piled on a platter. And, that's not one or two. All the dishes are super large.

“These dishes have been cooked by the kitchen chief personally. It is different from the cuisine of the kingdom, but the taste is guaranteed!" Yukurishisu

“Is that... an normal imperial dish normal?” Tsuchio

“If you mean local cuisine, then this isn't normal as expected." Yukurishisu

Oh, I guess so. This amount is too much, which is surely only for the royal family.

“There are not many kinds of cuisines for ordinary families so far. There are about 2 or 3 types of side dishes and they also fill your stomach such as sweet potato." Yukurishisu

“Type?Not the amount?” Tsuchio

“Yes everything is usually in this amount. Oh, I remembered that the kingdom's dishes were quite small." Yukurishisu

Is this the default… what a wonderful thing for demons. Well, with their huge bodies, there will be a lot of necessary energy, but Yukurishisu will eat this amount as well. Is it related to this that demons live longer?

“Everyone you haven't started to eat so far...... are you enduring something?"

“That's not true. The amount of meals I am eating did not change before and after my evolution." Ruu

“I am eating the same thing as father. In the first place, meals don't have much meaning in terms of taking nutrition. It is not much necessary. For me, eating the same things as father is the most important." Lime

“I'm not the same as before. Well, I've only eaten grass and meat before.” Rin

“...Oh yeah, the cafeteria was having trouble with your eating habits. I gave everyone the same amount all the time, so I didn't notice it at all. Certainly, it is quite a lot than the amount we humans eat." Tsuchio

The amount of meals for my familiars seem to be strange. The Engel factor will exceed the average. If they eat the meat of demon beasts, they may save a little. Haa, I'm really worried about my life after graduation.

“Let's eat before it gets cold. Please take as much as you want and eat it freely." Yukurishisu

“Then, Itadakimasu.” Tsuchio

I take some side dishes on my plate. Yakitori fried potato and is this lizard? Does it taste like chicken? Bugs are a bit harsh, but lizards are all right. Because I want to eat everything for the time being, I keep it aside for the moment.

“Hey, Tsuchio. You don't need to hold back. If you don't take it more quickly, then nothing will be left soon." Tyres-san

Tyres takes a large amount of a large number of side dishes and puts it on his plate steadily. The plate is overfilled with side dishes and you can't even say anything about it....

“Tyres, that's not good." Yukurishisu

“It's alright and fine in such a place. I don't arrange my plate as beautiful as elder sister." Tyres

Yukurishisu also took a large amount of side dishes, but she doesn't mix them together and arranges them beautifully on the plate. You can well divide it so far… absolutely perfect.

“I'm used to this. If you are careful, you will naturally learn." Toururi

“Even so...” Tyres

“You don't have any difficulties as long as you can do it... well, try it out next time." Yukurishisu

Toururi′s plate isn't as good as Yukurishisu, but it's also well arranged. At least nothing is mixed up. She is trying to avoid mixing the side dishes with each other. That takes a little bit.

“The seasoning is thick. All the dishes in the kingdom are so pale that you might like them." Ruu

“Well, especially this meat fish is delicious. Oh, father. Which is the sweet potato?” Lime

“Well, these vegetables have a deep taste. This is a little too dark.” Rin

“Spices and oils are used abundantly. These fried foods are rare in the kingdom. I'll record it in the database." Nichrome

Somehow, it reminds me of Japanese cuisine… the taste is different but somewhat similar. Yeah, yummy. In terms of cooking, I prefer this way from the kingdom.

“How was it, Tsuchio. Did you like it?" Yukurishisu

“Yes, it was very tasty. Because my home cuisine was like this, I felt nostalgic for a while." Tsuchio

“I see, that's good to hear. I was wondering what I should do if I was told that it was unpleasant." Yukurishisu

“I won't say such a thing when I was invited. It was really delicious, maybe we won't have enough to go back to the kingdom." Tsuchio

I can eat this dish for a while and I am looking forward to the other towns.
