After Maou and Ashiya sat in the room, Yuki inevitably asked them with a smile, "Yo Maou, why don't you take Hanzo with you? I'm sure he wants to eat for free, too, don't you think? and you'll also avoid spending on dinner." Yuki asked this to check if there was any chance of their room being empty, therefore, a chance to sneak into using the [Quick step] to steal a thing or two from them in return for their disgusting disorder.
However, Ashiya looked at Yuki with a disdainful smile and even before Maou could reply, she said, "We left her to protect the fortress just in case, just in case, and he's still under punishment for what he did so he doesn't deserve a good dinner." The implicit meaning is loud and clear. Bad guys are like-minded and we're cheaper than you think, Hanzo might have to survive on water and rice for a few days.
Meanwhile, lamenting the lost opportunity, Yuki replied with a mockery of "OH, I didn't know you guys were so scared about what you had in your room being stolen and would leave little demons to protect them, I didn't know you guys were so scared about what you had in your room being stolen and would leave little demons behind to protect them, how ironic hehe"
Ashiya gritted her teeth, not knowing how to answer, after all, what Yuki said was indeed true. Meanwhile, Mashiro was interested in this conversation so she tilted her head and asked curiously, "What are you protecting your fortress from.? and what was Hanzo punished for?"
Unexpectedly Maou answered seriously like a father who advised his daughter wisely, "Mashiro-chan, you have to be careful, you have to be careful, there are rumors that this place is possessed by an ugly ghost who will steal your valuables! That's why people ran away from this building and we left Hanzo in the room (sighs). about why he was punished, he tried to smash-"
Before Maou can finish her sentence, Yuki hits her head, and she immediately corrects herself "Ahum, She tried to Kidnap-" And she ends up receiving another blow as Yuki thinks 'Why did this idiot blabber his mouth' and Yuki instead explained it. "She's been fighting a lot lately so she's been punished by staying in that house alone"
And yuki didn't forget to curse the Maou in the head for calling him a thief and a ghost 'Basic cheap bastard, the demon lord summoned a set of tea and other kitchen utensils and a lot of 'precious' money', it was despicable' Yuki thought, completely ignoring the fact that he himself was a poisonous and petty human being.
Mashiro is surprised by this and she can't help but turn to Yuki to confirm this kind of rumor without realizing that she is the ghost thief in question that warms her heart as she just chuckles hiding all the curses inside his head, and answering "Indeed, there are such rumors, but there are also things about people who see demons roaming the streets in the morning and night, and they say that they especially like to approach small high school girls and use trickery to make them fall in love with them, before they reject it and break their hearts"
'You want to play dirty, let's do it' thought Yuki with the evil grin that was bothering Maou whose red eyes began to shine with an ominous bloody light as she stared at Yuki's frightening green eyes and sparks started to clash between the two of them.
Mashiro opened her mouth in surprise and inevitably asked "really?". After all, she fits perfectly with the criteria as a High School girl, but Yuki especially attacks Maou's relationship with Chiho which gets her a hateful look from the demon lord.
Yuki nodded seriously as he looked at Maou and Ashiya with a look of disdain as he said, "I've seen them once, one of them is big and muscular with horns on his head like a bull as well as red eyes, I'm sure his brain is a banshee, too. Meanwhile, the others looked like banshee with her white hair and she would also slightly shout— banshee from time to time shocking the residents throughout the district!"
Mashiro's face is full of intrigue as her artistic side wants to see these creatures and draw them, perhaps even a story revolving around them, but the girl inside him kept warning him to be careful. Meanwhile, the faces of Maou and Ashiya turned irritated, though, especially Ashiya who did not like to hear her master being insulted and her reputation being defiled so she gritted her teeth and was about to reprimand Yuki but Maou held her back with a calm expression on her face.
"My master.." murmured Ashiya but Maou just shook her head and with an exaggerated look on her face, she replied, "The wise man wins without fighting, and the, and the one who defeated this ghost is coming soon"
Ashiya's sparkling eyes understood and she couldn't help but an evil laugh made Yuki feel cold as she replied, "My master, you are the wisest, you are the wisest, the title of servant as the greatest demon strategist is meaningless in front of your prowess"
"HAHAHAHA" of course, I'm the greatest" Maou replied with a haughty look and a heroic pose.
While the two demons were whispering to each other like two housewives, Yuki who was preparing dinner couldn't help feeling that something was wrong 'Both were acting out of character, it's impossible for them to accept this kind of humiliation without retaliation, I don't like where it's going'
While a cold war is going on between demons and ghosts, the demons also talk to Mashiro and they instantly like the pure girl as Ashiya praises her and simultaneously insults the yuki "Ah Mashiro-chan, who is the only one who has a crush on her, I wish all our neighbors were like you, pure, beautiful and kind, all that we saw before was shameless or petty "
Yuki glared at him and thought 'Why is he describing himself? should I poison the food? I think I still have the rest of the cyanide.
Ashiya sensed the killing intent directed at her and made a reverse attitude of 180° and she immediately said, "Of course, we are also lucky to have Yuki here" while inside she thought 'I don't know these petty ghost thoughts, I have to be more careful!'
Meanwhile, while Yuki was considering whether to kill Ashiya or not, he was considering whether to kill Ashiya, maou's face suddenly had a satisfied expression on his face which was immediately followed by a knock on the door that made Yuki freeze in the middle of his action.
However, he then saw Mashiro about to stand up and check the door so he quickly made a decision and said, "Maou, please check the door"
Mashiro stopped and looked at Yuki with a confused look as Yuki started sweating nervously 'So this is why these two bastards were so arrogant all this time, they trapped me so well huh? alright, I won't go down without a fight!'
At the door, surprisingly there were two women, not just one as she had expected, whether lucky or not, Emi came with Chiho, who was not, and a drop of sweat suddenly started to form on the side of Maou's face that only called out to Emilia, causing trouble to Yuki, who was, and he ended up putting on a fake smile that he used to greet his customers at MgRonald and said, "Welcome customer friends, please come in"
However, the two girls completely ignored him as their attention fell on the only woman in the room who was staring at them curiously, and they each had their own reasons, he said, and like the two animals in the wild, they began to snatch prey.
'It doesn't look bad tch, but at least we're the same around there.' thought Emilia while comparing size to Mashiro while Chiho just puffed her chest confidently like a gorilla. and entering the room while thinking 'This girl is not a threat, but she is still cute?
"Yo, welcome Emi, Chiho-chan, you come on time, dinner will be ready soon" Yuki said with a friendly smile on her face ignoring the judgmental gaze Emi sent her.
"Sorry to have visited uninvited" Chiho replied with an embarrassed expression on her face while Emi glared at her and directly said "When did you get a new roommate?"
Before Yuki could answer, Mashiro asked curiously with a strange feeling in her heart, "Yuki, is this your boyfriend?"
Hearing this, Emilia's face instantly flushed red like a tomato, and any hostility she had for Mashiro immediately disappeared and was replaced with pure shame as she stammered, "Wh-what are you talking about? Hh-he's not my girlfriend"
Mashiro tilted her head in confusion feeling that her reaction was strange, and not only him, but even the two demons felt that the situation was evolving beyond their expectations as they looked at each other and thought 'What happened to our hero? Did we miss something?'
Yuki pretended as if she had just realized the situation and completely avoided the landmines Mashiro had prepared for her while saying, "Oh that's right, let me introduce you guys, this is Mashiro Shiina, she said, my friend and my roommate. And Mashiro, this is my friend also Emi Yusa and Chiho Sasaki"
"It's nice to see you both" mashiro said with a monotonous voice and an expressionless face while Chiho and Emilia replied that the fun was theirs before the girls went aside and started talking and getting to know each other better leaving Yuki and the devil alone
"Yo Yuki, did something happen between you and that stupid hero" Ashiya suddenly asked, and Yuki simply shrugged and said, "How about you bring your skinny hands here and help me set up a table"
"Currently, making your guest work for you, this is not like Japanese culture" Ashiya said with disdain but Yuki isn't even someone from this world, let alone Japanese, either, so it doesn't matter at all when he answers "Maybe I should use Ente Isla's culture and stick this knife in your ass while you sleep, what do you think"
Seeing the strange expression on Yuki's face, Ashiya immediately covered her butt with both hands before she walked warily towards Yuki and started helping him set the table while they continued to joke with each other.
Meanwhile, Maou only saw all of this silently with an incomprehensible expression on her face while inside her head, the gears were spinning at high speed as she thought 'Why is Emilia acting this way, I was hoping to create a misunderstanding between him and Yuki and watch his excitement, but I didn't expect him to react like that... Did he fall in love with this child?'
He could only shake his head at the thought of 'It's none of my business if he did, but this kid is really interesting, just like this human world, whether the people of Ente Isla are like this as well, he said, I just want to live like an ordinary person…'
Inevitably Maou is lost in thought as he reconsiders his past actions and beliefs while listening to the laughter and normal interactions of those around him until he is interrupted by a terrifying whisper in the past her right ear which surprised her as she almost woke up. jumping from her seat made the girls giggle at her while Yuki grinned at her.
"Evening is ready" said Yuki and Maou could only smile as she thought 'What am I thinking. none of these people are normal by the standards of this world... and me too'
"ITADAKIMASU" said everyone as they began to devour their dinner and enjoy their conversation, and during this warm atmosphere, the, the lonely devil stuck his ear against the wall to listen to what they were saying while salivating as his stomach growled in hunger before he muttered, "That fucker, that bastard, I just hope they bring me something to eat"
However, Hanzo will never be lucky to receive anything from Yuki, not today or any other day!
