Kiddyyyyyy!!

"What's for dinner tonight? I was wondering if it was sushi?

"Lucia...... you don't get tired of it, do you? Actually, I'm sorry about Lucia like that... I asked my hunter sister to cook refreshingly because yesterday was a really good dish. But from this smell... I guess it's meat again today..."

"I don't even think the Hunter will ignore Rikurasu... so maybe it's a refreshing meat dish? It's strange at all... How can I use meat for that refreshing s"

"What, gentlemen?! How can you stay calm?!

Suddenly, I took out my weapon and pressed (?) Beatrix of how she couldn't get through the actions of Sophia and Null, who started, as if nothing had happened, and accidentally raised her voice.

It should be noted that such a reaction on her part is perfectly normal… rather, the non-responders are more abnormal.

"Because the food hasn't even come out yet, and there's no dust in it... isn't that good?

"With all sorts of people coming from all kinds of places, isn't it strange to have some clashes?

"That's what happened. If you care about every detail, you can't do it with Cortex."

"No, in the matter of saying so..."

And I was about to say...... but somehow, the mouth-watering beatrix.

There didn't seem to be any particular reaction to the waltz that was on the spot or to the catalina or flying dragon that had just arrived, or even to the hunter that was in the kitchen... Beatrix was

"... that's what it is."

its rare adaptability (?), and he seems to have apprenticed his surroundings and begun to behave as if nothing had happened.

A very important ability to build a good relationship with the Waltz (?) I would say.

Meanwhile.

Null and Sophia, who were crossing swords and canes, wrapped around a strange aura... still seem to be hitting each other in the kill.

"Why are you here?" ♪ Giggy, giggy, giggy ♪

"I'll give that word back to you as it is!" Guggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg

And, over the desk, Null and Sophia to interact with.

From the look of it, they seemed familiar.

That's also, quite, the unfriendly type of...

I spoke to them like that... what they had been eating, a flying dragon that was gitgitting around my mouth like a yellow candle... was Catalina sitting next to me.

"Um... both of you? Even if I tell you the food hasn't come out yet, this is the dining table, so for once, why don't you sit down?

That's what I said, listen to Catalina smiling bitterly...

"Also, I'm sorry......! [incomprehensible]

…… ………… [incomprehensible]

and two people who simultaneously earn money and lower their hips in their seats.

That too, somehow, turning his face bright blue......

Null has a face-to-face knowledge of Catalina and knows her to some extent, so there's no point in showing such a reaction... Sofia's should have little familiarity with Catalina, so it's unclear why she reacted like she was surprised.

Was it still strange how they reacted like that,

"What's wrong? Both of you..."

When Catalina asks about the situation...

"Yes, no. Nothing......"

"Ko, this has shown you the ugly…"

Two people lean out of sight from Catalina, as if they had seen something scary.

In the meantime, Sophia, with a crease between her eyebrows, muttered one of these words.

"Master Vixen? No... Oh, sure, of the name Catalina..."

Listen to that,

"Maybe, what is Sophia... the Demon Clan?

waltz asking.

In response to her inquiry like that, Sophia said this… with a bewildered look on her face.

"There's Null here... so you can't hide it. Sure, I'm a demon. I'm from a country just east of Boreas."

and Sophia, who calls Null, who is also 500 years old, 'Chan'.

Listen to that,

"What are you talking about? Talking about demons..."

When Null says so,

".................." Gi

Sophia seems to have turned her sharp gaze to null.

The point of that gaze, don't say any more, is it?

As a result, Null looked unfriendly with her...... but more than that, she didn't say anything extra.

... rather than, besides Null, there was a chatty person who had spoken the words instead of her who was worried about whether to say the rest.

"Sophie, you look like a demon king, don't you? Is it a joke, is it true, I know.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Gentlemen. You look so subtle..."

"............... Amber? ♪ Gogogogogogogogogo ♪

"Huh? What's wrong sof...... Hino!?

And Amber, frightened by that shape of Sophia, rises from the spot and tries to escape from the room.

Mouth is the source of disaster... is probably the word that is for her now...

Then Sophia, who circled in front of Amber at an unnoticed speed, stretched the anti-metamagic junction so Amber wouldn't get away with the metamagic he was good at, wrapping it around with a rope......

And then I put the sole in the corner of the room, after leaving it untouched.

Everyone seemed deliciously handy to the hunter dish that was shortly brought to the table… Waltz asked Sophia about the situation.

"You... you don't have to be the Demon King?

In response to that question,

"... no, I'm a demon"

And Sophia tries to deny and claim that she is just a demon.

Nevertheless, even if he is a demon king, it does not make any difference that he belongs to the Demon clan.

As a result, Waltz turned his gaze towards Null, who later knew what was going on.

But Null, who is supposed to be unfriendly with Sophia, apparently doesn't intend to reveal who Sophia is herself, and puts that gaze straight at her sister Yuki (A), who was next door.

Then Yuki (A) went to Yuki B, who was next to him.

And that yuki b...

………… What's the matter, sir?

... From the first place, he didn't seem to know who Sophia was.

Look at how the Sirius sisters are doing.

"I don't mind... But I can't believe you said something about Catalina right away... not a normal demon clan, huh?

Looks like Waltz has given up on being forced to pursue it.

I suppose you're thinking about the inclusion of many of your own people who don't know their identity very well.

In particular, Lucia, Eve, Catalina, etc….

Then what did Catalina, called Vixen, think...

"... heh heh. My name is famous even in these times..."

And, as usual, I uttered those words with a grin in a root-dark way somewhere.

Of course it's her own joke.

In fact, those who knew her so deeply seemed to realize it.

But... not long after I met her, Null and Sophia...

…………

He seems so confused that he misplaced the meat dish he was about to eat in his mouth and dropped it on the floor.

For them, it seems that a person named Vixen was so special.

"No, Catalina? That's not funny, is it?

"After all, is that right... But why do you, ladies and gentlemen, call me Vixen Vixen? Does it look that similar?

That's what I said, Catalina tilting her neck.

Then Sophia finally realized that Catalina's words were a joke...

"Really amazingly, it looks a lot like a portrait..."

And with his mouth, he took a picture like a single picture, about size B6, out of a witch hat that had been kept on a nearby chair.

Perhaps her hat also has an enchant for space expansion, which is wider than it looks.

That painting Sophia took out of such a hat... it was, anyway, a detailed portrait.

Although it was painted with something like oil paint and there were small irregularities on the surface...... it is a painting faithfully painted all photographed and seemingly sesame.

Maybe of the portrait of Vixen, the Demon King, that it was previously decorated in the castle of Boreas... its reduced version.

And who was in it...

"... that? This, Catalina..."

"What?... Oh, really..."

It seemed to be Catalina from anywhere.

That's exactly the same look, even the white coat you're wearing...
