53 – Getting ready for a date
Since ancient times, I have always been cautious about rewarding and punishing subordinates.
Of course, I was on the side of avoiding too severe punishment as much as possible, but I always made it clear that rewards for achievement should be treated as punishment for failure.
And at this moment.
According to those principles, she.
Nyale, my most trustworthy subordinate and colleague in the world, was demanding a legitimate ‘reward’ from me.
There was obviously nothing wrong with that itself.
Actually, even if she doesn’t talk about it, I was thinking of bringing up something related to this sooner or later.
But… The problem was related to the ‘condition’ she requested of me at this moment.
“So.. You mean to go on a date?”
“….”
Nyale struggled to nod her head with a red-hot expression on her face.
Looking at her like this, I began to recall the facts that I had forgotten in the hectic life for a while.
That was the feeling of liking for Nyale that I was also vaguely aware of.
Although I didn’t express it as much as possible, I was acknowledging that it was a clear fact.
‘Come to think of it, it’s even more strange that I openly like you so much but don’t notice..’
She never told me that she likes me outright.
As much as she was also aware of the ‘wall’ I put up unconsciously. Because she was on her own.
But .. Nevertheless, the signs of her liking that came out of her actions towards me were so clear.
From my point of view, I couldn’t help recognizing the fact that it contained special emotions rather than a simple master-servant relationship.
And now, with such feelings, Nyale was making a request to me.
She told me to take some time alone with herself..
In other words… The story of asking me out on a date.
‘Certainly, there is nothing to be caught by now. Her sister’s illness was cured, and her revenge was finished..’
In terms of metaphors from novels and movies, it is as if the war is over and they have come back in a situation like let’s get married when the war is over.
So, after grasping the situation, I looked at Nyale with her expectant expression on her face and replied with a slight blush on her face.
“… Well… If you want… Good.”
“Ah!…”
Nyale smiles with sincere joy at those words.
In one moment, the brightest smile I’ve ever seen from her…
Even compared to the one she showed right after conquering the other world, she was showing off a more radiant expression.
And,
Seeing her like this, I instantly felt a little pressure.
‘I knew you would like it, but I never thought it would shine that brightly..’
Considering Nyale’s personality, which usually shows no emotion with her expressionless face, she was quite an enemy.

People have their own goals in life.
From noble mtl dot com.
And, in that respect, her goal is…
The goal of a woman named Nyale has been steadfast from the past to the present.
‘Aztas.. I will love you no matter what..’
A long relationship that lasted for 17 years.
Thinking of that, Nyale was feeling great joy at the fact that it was finally able to come to fruition.
‘There is no need to be afraid of anything anymore. The only thing left is for this heart to germinate well..’
Feeling her delight at the fact, Nyale began to show a gentle smile on her lips.
But the next moment…
Suddenly, a fact that she hadn’t even thought of came into Nyale’s mind.
‘Wait a minute… But… What should I wear when going on a date in the human world?..’
Originally, it was a general fact that meetings between men and women in the world took place in formal attire such as dresses and suits.
But… No matter how dark Nyale was on this side, she knew that she had to avoid dressing like that in this world as much as possible.
‘At least until now, I haven’t seen a single person walking around wearing a dress like that in this world.
Right now, the only outfit she’s worn so far is a black suit with a dress shirt.
Although it wasn’t a cleanliness problem as it was washed frequently using magic, most of the people wearing these clothes right now were doing something complicated that was far from dating.
‘From what I’ve looked around, I’ve been sitting in front of something called a computer… All day and pounding hard on something… Monk Aztas said that’s the way to fill out and organize paperwork in this world… I think they all know that you shouldn’t go on a date in your clothes.’
Niyale, who thinks about this and that while spinning her head in her own way.
In the process, she used the mobile phone Aztas gave her and the dictionary called the Internet to collect information, but honestly, the more she looked at it, the more confused she was.
‘How can I say it… This is really… I can’t help but think that there is too much useless information…”
The result of gathering information with the word date clothes was literally a thousand different things.
In some places, it was said that it was better to dress modestly, and in other places, there were even Nyale’s daring styles that made her blush.
‘From the first one to the last one, the stories are so diverse that I don’t know which one to choose..’
If you were a normal person, it might have been easier to find information in a way that stood out among them.
However, the problem was that Nyale was the one who was looking for this information.
A being with mental arithmetic abilities and information acquisition abilities that transcend humans.
For her, her excessively bizarre information only made it difficult for her to judge, and in the end, she decided that it was difficult to draw her own conclusions about this matter.
“Haa.. I can’t. In times like these, you have no choice but to ask someone else.”
If you find it difficult to judge yourself, it is a good idea to listen to the advice of others.
So, being on this side for now, Nyale decided to ask the most trustworthy person among her demons.

“A date outfit? Does that mean that you have finally decided to go ahead with your older brother?”
“..Yes. For once, it was like that.”
“Huh, that worked really well. In fact, I hoped that Nyale-sister would pay attention to it sooner rather than later.”
“… Um… Um…”
Niglas is showing a very funny reaction to Niyale’s words.
In response, Niyale blushed slightly and cleared her throat, then asked her again in front of her eyes.
“So? What kind of clothes should I wear at a time like this? Pick out any of the clothes you have that are good for you.”
Unlike herself, she is quite bright in this way, Knee Glass.
Even when he was in the original world, he had an excellent fashion sense to match his beautiful appearance, and this was the same even after he moved to the human world.
Unlike Niyale, who has been living with just one suit, Niglas has already bought several sets of clothes from this world.
As long as the clothes she piled up in her closet were enough to open a clothing store, her understanding of fashion and trends in this world was virtually finished. .
But…
To Niyale’s request, Niglas said with a bitter smile on her lips.
“Hey… Nyale sister. I’m asking this just in case, but are you really planning on borrowing my clothes to go on a date with your sister?”
“Then.. Can’t it?”
“… Ha ha .. Well .. If it’s like a sister, she has a sister-like attitude. Please don’t do that.”
“Yes… ?”
Niglas stops Niyale with her heavy sigh.
In response, Niyale began to put her question mark on her head, and seeing her sister like that, Niglas firmly grabbed her by the wrist and headed for her somewhere.
“Now.. Wait a minute.. Where are you going?”
“Of course I’m going to buy clothes. Don’t talk and follow me! It’s always bothered me, but now I have to catch up and coordinate!”
