Is that a table manner? Thinking about it, I don't really care. "

"Really? Alice was the king of the demon world in front of the demon king, right?"

Alice and Lisa, who were supposed to teach Cosmos table manners for some reason, were chatting while drinking orange juice instead of aperitifs.Incidentally, Cosmos is currently preparing a full course in the kitchen.

"I was careful how I behaved in public to maintain dignity, but I didn't have many opportunities to eat with others at that time, and the food itself was unsatisfactory in the first place.I think there are aspects to manners and so on that there is a certain amount of room.The Demon King is also an abattoir around here.But what about Lisa? "

Eh, me?

"Yeah, you went to various countries when you were a brave man, right?You've been invited to dinner by great people everywhere.What about that time? "

"Ah... speaking of which, there seems to have been such a trick.But I was nervous in front of the great people, and I asked the knights who were with me to refuse, except when I couldn't refuse.Sometimes I couldn't say no, but I even felt like I could endure a social resignation and a smile... and the people I met for the first time came to worship me in excitement and weeping, and honestly, it wasn't time to eat... "

"It's hard for both of us....."

It seems that the previous demon kings and heroes had differing positions and struggled.

I didn't have the opportunity to show someone the meal manners in the first place, or any kind of behavior would be accepted positively as a thankful behavior of the "brave man".

Of course, I was trying to be as careful as possible to be the two of us at the time, but I'm sure I still have doubts about whether it was a splendid behavior that wasn't embarrassing anywhere.While it is true that it is sudden, it may not be bad to follow Cosmos' recommendations and learn formal manners.

"Well, even without it, Mr. Cosmos is a good cook.It may be pure pleasure to feed you something delicious. "

"Yeah, sometimes when we open up the store, it seems like we don't have to ask for a replacement.I didn't train anywhere, but I'm certainly a professional, and I'm probably better than the Devil King. "

"I have to try not to lose... ah, it looks like I'm here."

Well, it looks like the first plate was brought in.

Alice and the others gently stretch their backs to prepare for Cosmos.

"Thank you for your patience.This is a cold potato soup from Vishsaw's. "

"Oh, Mr. Cosmos, is it soup from one item?"

One item is chilled potato soup.

In course cuisine, it is the steady stone that stimulates the stomach of people eating with sour or salty appetizers first, but Cosmos seems to have dared to remove it from the beginning.

"Yeah, it's a little hot today.The first thing you want to do is arouse your appetite with something cold and tasty.It's not a regular stone of the course, but that kind of playfulness is also in the taste. "

"I see, it's time to study. It's really cold and delicious."

Respond on an ad hoc basis, taking into account the temperature of the day and the customer's physical condition.

This is the attitude of the serving side rather than the eating side, but it is also a kind of manners in a broad sense.Manners are not only hard to breathe, they are also about making people feel comfortable on the spot.

"You can't help but ignore it and learn superficial tricks.Please enjoy your meal without getting too hard.I'll bring the next dish. "

"Ha, yes...."

I can't find any reason to stop what I'm saying, even though I'm feeling creepy about the words of Mattomo Cosmos.Immediately after drinking the first plate of soup with confusion, the second plate was brought in as if timing had been gauged.

"The second dish is consommé soup."

Oh, two consecutive soups?It seems delicious though. "

"Yes, because it's nothing but removing the fixed stone.This is the fixed stone street of the course.And eating cold and warm alternately is delicious. "

In a regular course, soup comes after appetizers, but this time it's a daring double-column soup.Although it is a strange flow, the taste itself is not a problem, and it is not an interesting hobby to put on a quick temperature difference.Alice and the others felt a slight discomfort but missed it without pursuing it deeply.

Now, the third dish, fish dishes.

Hmm, by the way, what's it like?

"This soup is made from fresh white fish and vegetables such as onions and carrots carefully simmered and then carefully filtered.It's called soup de poisson. "

"No, um, wait a minute, Cosmos.I feel like I'm being told something and honestly... don't you have a lot of soup? "

"Haha, is it really Alice's fault?"

"No, nothing because of my mind....."

"Whoa, no. I'll get ready for the main event.Fufufu, it's about time we had a good taste. "

The third dish of fish dishes.

This was also soup.

I passed through at the time of the second plate, but I can't ignore the discomfort in the boulder anymore.

"Ah, but the taste is really delicious."

"I agree with that... but honestly, I can already see you.In the end, how can manners be a mere pretext, in short, to enjoy our reactions as usual?Maybe it's all soup in this stream. "

"Ahahah, it's kind of a plump course in my stomach."

"I'll hang out with you for a while longer than I've been here, but it's not funny that Cosmos's aim is to piss you off.Anyway, they say, "If the opponent gets bumpy, it's good to put in a comic book."So why don't you dare to stay calm and never surprise him?Fufufu, I'm sure she'll be disappointed. "

"Hmm, I don't think I can beat Mr. Cosmos with that reading... if Alice says so."

Alice is always showing pleasant reactions to Cosmos' pranks, but she's never done it.They also have counter fangs that pretend to act like this and aim to smash them.In view of the fact that she is an ex-Demonic King, she has too many smiling fangs.

"Thank you for waiting.This is today's main dish. "

The main dish has finally arrived.

What did Cosmos bring?

"Fufu, is that soup after all... oh?"

Soup or hot water?

A clear liquid poured into a soup dish.

At first glance, it just looks like hot water.

Based on the pattern so far, Alice and the others were somewhat dished, just because they expected that the dishes themselves would come out properly, regardless of the combination and order.

"Fufufu, do you really think this is just hot water?"

"Hmm... if you concentrate on tasting it, it looks like it has a really thin saltiness?"

"Even so, it's a salt soup that just dissolves a little salt in warm water, right?"

"Well, what do you think? I'm sure this is the best treat for both of you."

I notice Cosmos is strangely confident.

Nevertheless, Lisa and Alice are both concentrating on the feeling of the tongue, but the degree to which they can feel a little saltiness.I didn't think that a very good cook, Cosmos, would come out confidently... but there was a big clue where they were worried about their heads.

"Hey, it looks like everybody's having fun.And, Cosmos, thank you for that. "

"No, Demon King, it's so cheap.After all, no other customers came. "

In the back of the shop, with the kitchen and Alice's living space, the Demon King appeared on the floor where everyone was.He is somehow thanking Cosmos.That bothered Alice and asked him.

"Demon King, did Cosmos do something... oh, my hair?The shirt has also changed.Were you taking a bath? "

"Yeah, I was just looking at the kitchen for me.And I say, "Why don't you take a bath when you need a break anyway?"Occasionally it's nice to have a refreshing daytime bath. "

"Ufufu, is that so?I see, so... hah!? "

"What's wrong, Alice... eh, eh!?"

At this moment, Alice's brain, moving at a fierce speed, came up with an answer.

Lisa arrives at the same answer a few seconds later.They alternated several times between the demon king in the bath in front of them and a soup plate containing mysterious hot water...

"Cosmos! What the hell are you doing!?"

"Eh, I mean, this is the demon king... Mr. Cosmos!"

What should I say about the two emotions at this time?

Shameful, hateful.

To tell the truth, I have a little interest.

Either way, Alice and Lisa try to knock in the holy sword, which has been transformed into a harichen-like sword that kicks the original perpetrator, by blowing it out of their head in an instant.But Cosmos avoids flickering with unpredictable movements.The lack of calm between the two of them is not the reason for this.

"We're good friends playing together.What about this dish? "

The Demon King watches these three with a smile.

He also noticed the dishes that remained in Alice's seat.

"Did we all eat something?"

"Yes, I was treating you both.Come on, I'm so happy. "

"Oh, it was so delicious.What kind of food was it? "

Cosmos answered honestly to the Demon King's question.

"It's just salt soup with no freaks."
