135 Episode 135: Former Demon King Becomes a Cuisine Specialist (1/2)
”There you go. This is the special” Immortality (Immortal) ”.
I put a hot tub on the table in the living room.
Around the table, Martha and Remy and Colette-Memen sit.
Colette is wearing everyday clothes that I bought for Remy.
As soon as she brought her to the dorm, Martha changed her clothes.
My hair has been cured, and now it looks refreshed.
Colette herself looks like she can't swallow the situation or something.
”... Um, Yuki-Grossalia... no, Master.”
”I didn't decide to become an apprentice yet.What's the matter with you?
”'Immortality (Immortal) is soggy'... what's in it?
”A little vegetables, eggs, corn and milk.It also contains a little meat. ”
”Doesn't it contain potions for longer life...?
”I don't like playing with food.”
”Well, then, why do you say 'immortal soot'...?
”There is a desire for those who eat to become immortal and literally live long enough to die.”
”Are you being challenged to immortality!?
”I don't have any success stories yet.”
”Immortality” is ”Feira Village”, which was made for children's lunch.
It has a good reputation because it quickly builds up and is nutritious.
People who worked near the old castle usually came to eat.A good adult. She said, ”I miss the taste of childhood.”
Well, in anticipation of that, I always made extra.
”It's just a lucky thing.It's not magical. ”
I told you.
I don't use honorific language because Colette herself said, ”Please speak normally because you will be an apprentice.”
If that's okay with me, I don't mind.
”So, 'if you eat it, you'll be immortal.Take responsibility!Don't complain. ”
”Do you have someone to tell you?
”I'm here.Sometimes. ”
He's playing a princess in the outhouse right now.
”... I won't complain about what Master makes for me.”
I see. Now, eat before it gets cold. ”
”... you can't reveal the secret of magic to someone who's just become an apprentice...”
”It's okay. If you don't eat soon, it'll get cold.”
”Yes, yes.”
Colette uses a spoon to rub 'Immortality (Immortal) Suddenly' into her mouth.
Hafufufu, and exhale, and then,
─ ─
I opened my eyes in surprise.
Then, I started eating ”Immortality (Immortality) Suddenly” obsessively.
Very well. It's full of good food.
After all, this is not what children do.
”... that's good.”
Martha looked at Colette reassuringly.
When I changed my clothes earlier, Martha noticed that Colette was losing weight.
She said she probably didn't eat much ─ ─ and she was worried.
But the House of Menmen is the Marquis.
Does it ever happen that it doesn't feed children badly?
And... why did Ezetta-Memen leave Colette with me?
I don't know. Too little information so far.
That's why I decided to feed him.
”I have a refill, so please don't hesitate to eat it.”
When I asked, Colette nodded little after hesitating for a while.
Martha sees it and adds' Immortal Soot 'to her vessel.
”Eat it.Will you listen to me?
”... (Kokuri)”
”Dear Ethetta... what Colette's sister told me was to take you as a guard for the search for the fifth basement of Elysion.But when I checked with Dr. Demetrius, he told me to make you an apprentice.Can we get this far?
”(Kokoku)”
”I also heard about the rules of my mentor in the Magic Guild.As for me, I don't mind taking you on a quest for the fifth basement, or temporarily becoming an apprentice.But I have questions.Why did your sister, Ethetta, leave you with me?Me and your sister should have never met. ”
”... that's right...”
Colette bends her neck to explore her memory.
”But my sister said.Yuki-Grossalia says she can be trusted. ”
”Why?”
”Even though it's still a short time since you joined the Magic Guild, you've achieved a lot.And I'm not proud of it at all.He didn't bully other magicians, but played a pale role.I can trust that kind of person. ”
”Ethetta, did you do that?
”Yes, the magician has few people who are proud of his achievements, but he doesn't feel that desire from his master.”
No, I usually have a desire.
It's just that it's different from a normal magician.
My goal is to raise the title of the house with merit.
Marrying Iris legally and then disappearing from the human world.
Titles and accomplishments are just a means to me and Iris.
It's not like I'm being brazen or proud.
That's why I'm working indifferently.
”As you know, the Menmen are a keen Cain.”
Colette saw me with an empty vessel.
”I have no choice but to leave me with the magician of Zamerism.”
”Who keeps it in the Cain School?
”... my father disagreed.Leaving a poor magician like me with His Highness Cain's associates... would be a disgrace to the house.And my sister said, ”Colette should be with someone unrelated to the Cain school.”
”Is that why you left it with me?
”Yes, and I have a message from my sister.”
Let me hear it.
”I'll tell you, 'The only way to keep Colette is to bring Yuki-Grossalia into the Cain school.If Yuki were to become Cain, it would inevitably be like Iris had joined the faction.In other words, think of Colette as a hostage that House Menmen will leave with you.My father, the Marquis, is convinced of this. ”
”... I'm really not convinced.”
”Why?”
”Even if you take me in, it's impossible to make Iris a 'Cain'.The hostages are too obvious in the first place.I could refuse. ”
Perhaps Colette spoke to convince the Menmen and the 'Cain'.
Eazetta-Memen should have a different purpose.That's...
”Can I ask you one more question?
”Yes, yes.”
”What does Ezetta look like to Colette?
”... my sister is the first-born son of the Marquis of Menmen and an excellent magician.”
”As a family?
”... very kind person”
Colette leaned and hesitated.
”... even though it's my father's heart... it's my sister who thinks about me.”
”Ask me one more thing. Is Colette the legitimate son of the Marquis?Or a bastard?
”... I am a child of Father's side room.So..... ”
”Didn't you get any good treatment?
”The Marquises of Menmen are famous!
Colette screamed.
”That famous house, even though it's a side room, doesn't do anything terrible to its children!
