'Cocktail Potion' by Transworld Transfer Bartenders

Fourteen dead and 275 wounded.

That's the number of victims of this battle.

Many of the casualties are relatively mild, but some still suffer from deficiencies and sequelae.

I can't let go of this victory ─ ─ Of course there are people left behind.

However, considering the monster called the Demon King against the Dragon Zombie, the results are astonishing.After all, the city has not suffered any damage.

In the first place, it's a miracle that we won with the power of this city.

After the battle, the messengers ran around as busy as they had been before the battle, and the evacuees came back to the city one after the other.

Especially Oyaji, Rye, Bergamo and Corsica were the first groups to come back, and Oyaji was unworthy enough to hug the swiss and cry.

And then I was hugged with him, and then I was beaten like a blindfold. That's irrational.

I, Sue, and Sally had to endure the embarrassment that their actions would be improvised by Lito's mouth, which seemed to be watching them running around the end of the battle.

In that brief reunion, there was also a parting with Albao.

He was visiting the city on vacation from White Oak, so he deserved to go home, but he was still relieved to see the dragon zombie settle down and return.

His parting was whispered while the city was still quite fragile.The traffic was quite scarce, so I promised to meet again and left in haste.

Once the reunion was over, Mr. Oyaji was ready to reopen the shop immediately.Oyaji was there, Rye and Bergamo were there, the shop was safe, and we seemed to be able to get back to life as usual before the battle started.

Except Phil, who wasn't there.

"Well, let's celebrate this victory."

"Cheers!!"

The time was a little past noon.

The current location is a room in the lord's building.

It's like a party hall where the lord had his birthday party before.

The room and the outside courtyard, which was still a little chilly but unbearable, were transported through and the celebration was held.

Basically, it is a buffet style where individuals can properly serve dishes and enjoy meals at a delicately dotted table, with some large tables with food on board.

Not only those who participated in this battle, but also their relatives and lovers, please participate.

However, our family members refused because they were busy preparing the store.

It was the Knights I didn't know very well who took the head of the toast.Originally it would have been the Lord's role, but it seems he will be late to join this seat for the aftertreatment that still remains.

Speaking of which, it was unusual for me to stand as a drinker rather than a drinker at a party like this today.

By the way, if you look at the counter I was standing at the previous birthday party, there were some apprentice bartenders standing there who were also successful in this battle.Apparently, they are apprentice bartenders and at the same time apprentice knights who will serve several shifts this time.

Are you worried?

Sui, who seemed to have noticed my gaze, asked in the same flat tone.

She is dressed rarely today.Wearing a light blue dress that matches the color of her hair, she stands in a manner that makes her look confused with the lady in the deep window.

"No, I just thought it would be a tough apprenticeship to have a shift."

"Yes."

To my words, Swiss smiled elegantly back.

Her costume is well praised when she meets at the meeting place.

As a result, today's Swiss are in overall good mood.

"But it's been a long time since I've had a seat like this."

"What are you talking about? A good young lady."

"... that kind of teasing is a bit..."

Unlike Swiss, Sally, wearing a dark dress that was the opposite of her silver hair, sharpened her lips.

Nevertheless, I know what she wants to say.

I don't know about her life until then, but since she came here, she has been in a position of hospitality for about two years.Suddenly, you may not feel comfortable returning to the hospitality side.

But I heard one end of this girl's entirely mysterious traits in that battle.

Though it was an emergency, Phil's title was running.

Three Grand Dukes, Rasquil von Kirishvasser. That's the mother of the twins.

In my obscure knowledge, the Duke certainly holds the title of a fairly great aristocrat, and when it comes to the Grand Duke, there is also the possibility of a monarch in the Principality.

In other words, it is about princes and princesses and their level.It seems that there are so many brothers and sisters that I don't know how much treatment in the country is possible.At the very least, it is unlikely that it is the same as a civilian who is treated in a bundle.

And the girl in such a good place turns away and discards.

"Basically, even when you hear that, you don't show any respect just by teasing."

"Is there a master who respects his disciples?"

…………

Well, if you encounter such a nasty position in an official place, you take one or two of those attitudes prematurely, but otherwise you will not change to being an apprentice.

I respect it only after I have acquired enough strength to respect it.It is true that there are many things to be studied, but there are too many parts before that.

"And Phil?"

…………

Sally looked down at me. [M]

Phil and Crabel didn't wake up after the battle.As usual, Phil sometimes mixes his screams with a dull groan and doesn't move a single thing like Crabel is dead.

It was Sally who took them from the doctor to her room, saying that she knew the vampires best.

Sally said that the two bodies were not bad.And I think it's time to wake up.Phil got over it.

But Sally had a bitter look on her face.

"... is something wrong?"

"... that's..."

When Sally tried to answer, she heard a groaning voice at the venue.

It looks surprising and joyful, and I turn my face to the center of that voice.

There was a beautiful figure of a man and a woman with matching "silver hair".

The girl takes the man's arm with a poor smile on her face, and the man also stretches out his spine dignified, with a gentle smile on the girl.

Looking at the two for a while, I noticed that the man was also seen by me.

So-san!

The man, Phil, called my name.

As Phil stopped by, I didn't hide my expression of joy.

Phil, I'm glad you're okay.

Yes, thank you for your concern.

Phil smiled lightly and felt a bit more masculine than Phil in my memory.

Next to that, a girl with beautiful silver hair gracefully lowered her head, as if she could not remember the color of her original hair.

"How are you, So-san, Sui-san, and Sally... no sister-in-law?"

With that, Sui and I nodded to the hawk at the voice of Crabel, who proudly swayed his reborn silver hair, and Sally narrowed her eyes in disgust.

"Crabel, will you stop forcing me?"

"You're being so rude. I'm asking you to call me sister."

"No, no, no, no, no! Why do I have to call you my sister, even though I don't usually call Phil my brother!?"

And Sally refused without any shards, such as acting, but Crabel still seemed happy.

And they started staring at each other with a smile and detail, so they asked Phil instead.

"Phil, how's Miss Crabel's hair?"

"It's my influence. Because cravels are now like pseudo-vampires."

Really?

A pseudo-vampire, Phil said.

If you believe Sally's words, is it like Phil is now sharing with Craver a variety of abilities, including infinite vitality?

"And at the same time, I'm also like a pseudo-human."

"To humans?"

"Yes, because I can't live without Crabel.If I ever suffer a fatal wound, I will run out of vitality and die with Crabel. "

Phil was somehow satisfied, contrary to his words, with the noise.

Well, I've noticed one thing.

Phil, are you going to abandon her?

"... well, it's a short and ceremonial thing, but I'm married now."

To confirm, Phil said shyly, loosening the pins and stretched spine a little.

Did you notice how Phil looked? Crabel stopped arguing with Sally and stood next to Phil.

From such a girl, it seems that the feeling of childhood or stretching has disappeared.

Even so, I can't say anything because I've never had a lover in the first place, but it seems that both of us have become natural.

"Has Miss Crabel contacted your parents yet?"

"No, as soon as I woke up, I saw you."

"I'll see you later."

Sure, I was worried about the safety of the two of them, but what about attending the party when I wake up?

When she thought so, Sally slowly added.

"I asked for it.I hope you'll both come soon. "

"Why again?"

"Isn't it pathetic to spend a corner celebration on a rough errand?"

Fufu, Sally was very good at it.

When he glances at Phil, he smiles bitterly.I don't think I have to attend a party or anything, but I wonder if Sally's face won't stand up and tell me.

Well, there was a case of Crabel, so Phil pushed everything against Sally afterwards.You won't be able to refuse the request from Sally.

"Did Phil contact his parents?"

"My mother was right in front of me the moment I woke up...."

"Why?"

Phil's exhausted face leaked with questions.

However, it was Sally who was taking care of these two, and Sally was seeing them in arguments such as leaving it to the vampires.

If so, it may have been natural in a sense to call someone who knows more about vampires than Sally herself.

I don't know when I called you, but that light footwork lady seems to show up as easily as I can.

Even if there were no such circumstances, that selfish woman would probably come up on her own.

"Actually, I got kicked out of the house."

"... eh?"

"We're going to stop being vampires together...."

Mr. Rasquil said.

If you want to marry a human and stop being a vampire, you can no longer put your name on the last seat of our house.Then be a field, be a mountain.

That seems to be it.

"I wasn't particularly surprised because I was ready."

Phil said that and stroked Miss Crabel's head with a more carefree natural smile than usual.This would not have been Phil's behavior if it had been a while ago.

I didn't have much of a relationship with my parents, but Phil and Mr. Rasquil didn't have that kind of relationship.

I was worried about bringing my twins home.

I didn't expect you to throw such a child out without asking questions.

That's all Phil could have done as a vampire.

When I'm not sure what to say, Phil feels a soft smile.

"Besides, even if they kicked us out of the house, they didn't insulate us."

"Really? I knew it."

"Yes, because mom said right after she was expelled from the house."By the way, when are you coming home to make a delicious cocktail?"

"Hmm...."

I didn't expect you to come home practically as soon as you kicked me out of the house.

Evicting someone from the house is really a paperwork or something, and I don't think they really intend to change their attitude.Such a thing was only conveyed by hearsay.

Even if someone said something to me from the outside, that selfish guy wouldn't care about anything.

"So don't worry about me, So-san, Sally, and Crabel."

Me and Crabel don't have much to say.Sally also bears a hidden burden of responsibility for not stopping Phil.

Phil tells all of us not to worry.

"Alright, I'll deal with you as an apprentice."

"Yes"

Then I'll try to get Phil's attention.Even if you can't break it so easily in your heart, you don't put it in your attitude.

Phil laughs with joy at my unchanged attitude.

Then he looked at Sally, who was not saying anything, and gently lay his eyes down.

"I'd rather apologize to Sally."

"What's the matter? Don't worry about the dragon zombies, they were able to destroy them without a problem ─ ─"

"─ ─ That's not true.I will almost certainly die before you. "

…………

Sally turned her eyes slightly upset as she fled Phil's gaze.

Well, these twins have been together ever since.There would have been disagreements, but otherwise we'd have been together since we were born.

It came here and made a decisive difference.

Phil dies with Crabel.Sally will live on. It's still a long way off, but it's a pretty sure future.

Sally initially turned her back without answering Phil's words, but when she glanced at Phil, she breathed out because she realized that he was staring at Sally all the time.

"You know, Phil, we've been together ever since we were born.But Phil found a woman more important than his twin sister.That would be all. Don't apologize to me.If you want to apologize to me, be careful not to prioritize me over Crabel by mistake. "

Said Phil looked at Crabel's expression there.

Crabel had a quiet smile as he was reading this development.Really, she's a girl who doesn't deserve to grow up.

On behalf of Phil, who couldn't return the word, Crabel said.

That's my sister-in-law.

"I'm going to say goodbye to my life today, Crabel."

Then, Crabel, who somehow wanted me to call her sister, and Sally, who definitely didn't want to call her sister, moved on to a quiet glance.

Phil sees them in trouble as usual.

"Until now, I wasn't that close."

"Besides, you're not fighting because you're not close."

Really?

I nodded back to Phil's voice.

Surely Sally may be a little jealous of the twins.

But more than that, this is it.

"I think I'm close to you, so I guess I just stopped reluctant."

Sally sometimes serves customers who harass me, but sometimes she is careful not to do so during customer service.

It's about hitting your negative emotions.

Treat me like a friend, but not a friend.This is the customer, and this is the entertainment side.Other than hitting a customer with a complain.

Sally would basically only do that to her family.

In rare cases, there are customers who like to be consulted or complained about, so it is excluded when dealing with such people.

"So, well, Phil doesn't care, just look at it like it's funny."

"Yes"

And...

When I heard these questions, I grew up a little bit, but I still felt it was Phil I knew.

So I said it again.

"Welcome back again, Phil. I'm glad you're safe."

I told him again what I said when I looked at him earlier.

"... yes, I'm home."

Phil said with a little smile on his face, and now he smiled a little like a child.
