41 – Decorate a cozy dining room!
“I’ll stop going too. The food was delicious.”
Lamia briefly bowed her head to Einer and Ael.
“Goodbye. Grow eggs well.”
“Thank you for saving the eggs.”
Ael hesitated before opening her mouth.
“Ho, by any chance… If you want to eat something delicious again…”
Einer laughed when he saw Ael glancing at him without further words.
“Do what you want, Ael.”
“It’s still the owner’s house…”
“It’s also your house. Of course, it’s in my name.”
“Thank you. Then, Mr. Lamia…”
Aelie bowed her head to Inner and continued.
“If you want another delicious meal, come back anytime.”
Lamia opened her eyes wide as if slightly surprised and stared at Ael.
She wondered if her proposal she had made seemed disrespectful to Lamia, so she violated AL’s prosecution, but Lamia smiled lightly.
“Thank you, Ael.”
“You look a little more human now because you smile.”
At Einer’s joke, Lamia straightened up.
“It’s only natural that he polymorphed into a human.”
“Yeah… I don’t understand what you’re saying…”
“Goodbye then.”
Lamia cherished her egg and went down her hillside.
Ael went back to her kitchen, leaving Ael watching.
As I moved the empty dishes to the dishwasher, Ael came running.
“Leave it, master! I’ll do it.”
“Okay. Then I’ll clear the table and mop the floor.”
“I’ll do that too, so go upstairs and rest. You haven’t slept a wink since last night.”
“It’s the same for you.”
“I was with Kira-san in the room earlier…”
Ael, who was about to say that it was okay to sleep, hurriedly shut her mouth.
How stupid! Her mouth is straight… !
It’s not enough even if you close your eyes… !
I’m sure it won’t work.
Let’s report this to the owner.
From noble mtl dot com
It happened while Kira-san was teasing me and fighting because of the owner appearing in a dream.
You must be suspicious how such a misleading picture came out when the two aren’t that close, but it can’t be helped.
And I can’t help it if you ask what the hell the dream is about.
I have no choice but to tell you everything….
Ael was about to open her mouth, but you spoke first.
“It’s okay, Ael. I know what the situation is.”
“Eh…? You know everything…”
“Yeah. So you don’t have to try to talk. I can understand everything.”
“I-Really…?”
“Is that so? When have I ever lied to you? I really don’t mind.”
You say you know and understand?
With Einor’s kind smile, Ael’s worries and anxieties quickly melted away.
I see, Master knew everything.
You knew it was because Kira-san was making fun of me.
As expected, our master is a really great person.
I really like it, master….
At that time, Einer was thinking like this.
Yes, Ael.
It is quite possible for a woman to like a woman.
I don’t have to argue about personal preferences, as long as I’m good at cooking, that’s enough.
Maybe that’s why I asked Lamia to come back earlier.
Maybe it’s because I’m a demon, so I don’t have much resistance to monsters or anything like that.
Well, whatever she does in her room is none of my business.
It’s not a prison, it’s a room completely given to Ael.
I can understand everything, Ael.
By the way, Lamia’s lower body is a snake, so polymorph would have genital organs underneath?
I wonder, all of a sudden.
I’ll ask Ael later.
Ael and Einer smiled at each other as they evaluated the same situation completely oppositely.
In a way, they were a pair of fools in the world.

Permission for concurrent business has been granted.
It was very important to subdue the goblins just before the anti-siege map visitor arrived at the end.
The chief of security, who was barely able to keep his post, made a suggestion to the management office by exaggerating and inflating Einer’s achievements, and the chief immediately accepted the suggestion.
In addition to that, a reward in the name of the Commissioner was paid to Einer’s Joe.
It wasn’t an unconventional reward like a special promotion for the first class, but the amount was quite good and everyone was satisfied.
This is all thanks to Kira’s tremendous situational judgment and ability to execute.
When the goblins fell from the cliff fissure, Kira stood in front of the other groups and swung her sword to defeat them, so Einer’s group was able to defeat the goblins and raise her performance.
Ay, all of her crew members, including you, praised her Kira, and when Toby also liked that she had a lot of money thanks to her senior, Kira sharply shot her.
“Why don’t you just buy a drink at a nice place instead of babbling?”
“Eh? Why? Senior, you didn’t fight the goblins alone, and I have a share in this?”
Kira clicked her tongue at Toby’s refusal.
“Anyway, that idiot, that. He only talks stupid things.”
“You always say something only to me, why?”
“Okay. Let’s not talk.”
As Kira shook her hand and turned her back, Toby gave a look of regret.
“I got permission to work side-by-side, but when will the manager’s restaurant open?”
Einer thought for a moment at Marco’s question.
“Well? Now I have to prepare. I brought in a table, changed the internal structure, and this and that.”
“I see. Is Ael doing it alone as planned?”
“For now. I’ll help you after work, but I’m alone during the day.”
“I’m looking forward to it. The restaurant dishes prepared by A.L.”
Marco rubbed his hands together, swallowing as if he was already hungry.
“You can look forward to it. I heard that they change the menu every week.”
“It’s a great idea. You can offer multiple menus and keep customers looking forward to the next one, right?”
“That’s right. Ael that one. He’s smart unlike how he looks.”
Hearing that, Kira interrupted.
“He looks like a plump milk pudding. He’s so cute.”
“Is it fluffy?”
When she asked what happened back then, Kira smiled mischievously.
“Are you jealous?”
“No, I’m really curious.”
“Wasn’t that great?”
Al was moderately fat and his skin was so smooth that he really felt like he was on top of pudding.
Kira spoke the truth without any selflessness, and Einer interpreted it differently.
After all Kira, she was right that way.
Kira has such good stamina and fights that she doesn’t care if she likes girls or anything, but there is one problem.
I hope you don’t come to my house too often.
I don’t know because Lamia has a quiet personality, but he’s like an immature cat, so it’s obvious that he’ll get in the way of your rest.
I don’t like the idea of hearing Kira’s shrieking screams from Ael’s room across the street in the middle of the night.
I’ll have to warn Ael about that later.
If you’re going to meet Kira, go to a place like an inn in the city.

On the weekend of that week, Einer took Ael to the central market.
Daham’s Jungang Market is a huge scale that is hard to find a match on the continent, where all food ingredients from all over the world gather and almost all miscellaneous goods gather.
The market is divided into all kinds of zones, but among them, Einer headed for the zone specializing in furniture and interiors.
“hehehe, delicious.”
Ael, holding the sugar-sprinkled churros Einer bought in both hands, followed with a happy smile.
“As I said, let’s go to the first floor and put a table in the side yard. The rooftop doesn’t have stairs right now, so we’ll hold off.”
“Okay, master. I have something in mind.”
However, instead of immediately expressing his opinion, Ael took a big bite into the churros.
“Hmm, it’s delicious.”
Ael was in high spirits because Einer had said that he knew and understood everything about Kira’s affair a few days ago.
The misunderstanding was resolved, I got permission to work side by side, and on a sunny day, I went out to the market with my owner and bought two churros with lots of sugar.
I’m so happy right now!
“Kyaaa!”
Ael, unable to control his joy, screamed involuntarily.
“Why is that?”
“hehehe. No, Master.”
“So what did you think?”
Ael stood close to Einer and explained about the table he was worried about.
Hearing that, Einer put on an expression that he didn’t understand.
“Well… I know what shape it is, but I don’t know if there’s a place that sells it.”
“If there is none, can’t we make a custom order?”
“Custom-made products are twice as expensive. Let’s find them first.”
Einer and Ael entered the furniture area.
There were quite a lot of vacant lots compared to other districts, all of which were loading docks and workshops for lumber used for making furniture.
There was a commotion from all sides with the sound of saws and hammers and the shouts of porters loading heavy furniture onto wagons.
“Come to the side, Ael. It’s dangerous.”
As a wagon loaded with heavy timbers just passed by, Einor wrapped his arms around Ael’s shoulder and retreated to the side of the road.
“Ugh…!”
Surprised by the sudden physical contact, Ael drew in her breath, and Einer hurriedly removed her hand.
“Sorry sorry. Wasn’t there a different intention?”
“Eh…”
Ael lowered her head, feeling ashamed that her master hugged her shoulder.
Come to think of it, I should tell you before I forget that this happened.
“Ael.”
“Yes, yes!”
“By the way, don’t take Kira home often.”
“Eh…? What do you mean…?”
“I think he’s going to be a little noisy. He shouldn’t be sleeping at night.”
“Eh…? Uh… Yes… I understand…”
Ael, who couldn’t understand what his master was saying, was speechless.
This guy? Kira was not allowed to come into the house, so he became sullen.
It was Einer who misunderstood that.
