Volume 9, Chapter 3: Not Going to the Celebratory Banquet – Part 4
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
There was more revelry than expected.
Thinking about it, there were no smart phones or an SNS (social networking service) in this other world. The front line was putting all of their efforts in the restoration of the barrier, and the end of the war was not yet announced.
And so, the fact that the Great Demon King was defeated could only have been spread by rumors from soldiers that saw the fight.
The spreading of information, even if it was extremely important to the point that it could have an influence on life, happened at a walking speed. However, it was definitely circulating.
Those who heard the news of the victory leapt out into the streets, shouted their thanks to god, and danced.
The old men would join shoulders with others whose names they didn’t even know, drink alcohol together with them, and sing religious songs, the national anthem, or war songs with loud voices. If groups were to meet on the road, they would do hi-fives with anyone and everyone, and hug.
Seeing their joy, Diablo silently gained a feeling of satisfaction from having saved the town.
──Ahh, thank goodness I protected them.
Taking advantage of the celebratory mood, pretty boys would grab women on the road, and give them a deep kiss without even telling them their names. Even the women were not against it, and would wrap their hands around their backs.
Diablo clenched his fists.
*Gugigi* He gritted his teeth.
──With this, I……will end up losing my desire to protect the Races……
Rose’s eyes sparkled.
「Master is, making a very good expression……haa, haa.」
「N, no……Peace is the best. Umu!」
They arrived at the 《Relief Inn・Twilight Store》 which was in the west district.
However, there was a large crowd made in front of the store. Come to think of it, there were a couple of places like this even on the main street.
Celebrating the victory, there were stores making lavish feasts of food and alcohol.
Free food is good and all, but I really don’t like how noisy it is──just as he was carelessly thinking that, there was a figure that jumped at him from the side road.
「ッ!?」
「It’s me -nya!」
Nearly about to strike them on reflex with the 《Tonnerre Empereur》, after hearing that voice, he took it back in.
「Is that……Mei?」
It was hard to tell since it was dark, but it was Relief Inn’s idol──Mei.
Going *nyan*, she made a pose.
「Yes♡ It’s Mei-chan -nya☆」
「What are you doing in a place like this?」
「I was waiting for you, Diablo-san. If you return to the Relief Inn like this, things will turn out terribly.」
「I will allow it, tell me about it in full detail.」
Looking around restlessly, Mei check left and right.
「I’ll tell you, so follow me. It’s because this place isn’t safe.」
While I think that this is suspicious, it can’t be a trap──thinking that, he followed her, and entered the side road.
Rose spoke.
「Is this alright, Master?」
「Even if it is a trap……If a threat greater than the Great Demon King was prepared, then wouldn’t it be amusing?」
She made a bow, and fell behind him.
Edelgart silently followed along.
If this were Rem and Shera, he would have left the negotiations to them to begin with but……
Once they were apart from the hustle and bustle of the main street, Mei opened her mouth.
「The ones who were gathered in front of the 《Twilight Store》 earlier, all of them were waiting for you, Diablo-san.」
「What!?」
「There were rumors that the one that defeated the Great Demon King was you.」
Rose nodded.
「It is not a rumor, it is a fact. My Master, in his magnificence, turned the Great Demon King into rubbish.」
「Waー……So it was true -nyan daー. Ah, and so, that is why there are already somewhat excited people gathered there.」
「H, hou……」
It wasn’t a bad feeling.
It might be nice if he showed his face.
Mei shrugged her shoulders.
「With that many people, it would end up being morning just from hearing each and every one of their thanks, and since you would get hugs of gratitude from old men, I didn’t think that you would be happy about that, Diablo-san.」
──Mei-chan, seriously, thank you!
Although he was making a disinterested face, Diablo was really thankful to her.
With her guidance, they zigzagged through a thin path.
「And so……Tada☆ The 《Relief Inn・Hideout Store》 -nya! It’s a secret inn only for special guests.」
It was a private house in the back, and it had no signboard.
There was nothing characteristic about its outward appearance nor its door, and if one didn’t know about it, they definitely wouldn’t notice that it was an inn even if they passed by in front of it.
Rose spoke with a calm voice.
「……Isn’t it a private house?」
「Th-th-th-that isn’t true -nya! It is called the 《Relief Inn》 because of the comfortable service -nya!?」
Diablo magnanimously nodded.
「It is fine, I allow it. I do not like noise. Let us stay here.」
「Welcome -nya♪」
Since Rem, Shera, and Krum should be returning to the 《Twilight Store》 later, he decided to ask that they also be guided here.
The inside of the building was exactly like the 《Relief Inn》.
Mei brought out a key.
「Rose-chan and new face-chan get this key. Krum-chan and Edel-chan get this one. A room has also been prepared for Rem-chan and Shera-chan. Right now, since there is no one but Diablo-san’s group at the 《Hideout Store》, it is fully reserved for you all.」
「Fumu.」
He had gotten used to sleeping together on a large bed, but it was a fact that he could calm down better when sleeping alone.
「Ah, Diablo-san, I would like it if you waited for a moment.」
「Mu? Rose, head to the room first, and put Sasala to bed.」
「Understood, Master.」
Going as if dragging Sasala along, she climbed up the stairs.
Edelgart also received her key, and headed to her room.
He ended up being alone with Mei.
「What sort of business do you have with me?」
「Erm……The key, to Diablo-san’s room is, this.」
It was a silver key.
「Hou?」
「It is a symbol of being a special guest of the 《Relief Inn》……It is an invitation to a long time stay, free of charge -nya♪ From today onwards, use it thinking of it as something like your hometown, ‘kay☆」
He involuntarily ended up unblinkingly looking at Mei’s face.
Her cheeks were dyed red.
「Ehehe……Did you like it?」
「Umu, it’s not bad.」
「The key is a present from the owner. This is a present from Mei-chan.」
「Nn?」
Mei got close next to him.
Getting on top of an expressly prepared stool, she further stretched onto her toes.
Her lips, touched Diablo’s cheek.
「Chu♡」
…………Eh?
*Pa!* Mei got down from the stool, and their bodies separated.
Her face had become bright red.
「Unya～……Sorry if you weren’t pleased with it -nya. But, that was this idol’s first kiss☆」
「…………」
「Diablo-san, thank you, for protecting Mei-chan and everyone else -nano nya!」
Taking a pose to hide her embarrassment, she looked very innocent.
