Labyrinth Restaurant

Drop the trouble

The greatly exhilarated annual meeting will also gradually have a calming atmosphere, if only by the time the date changes.

Oomu's children and their parents have already arrived home, and half of the adults are drunk and dreamy. By the way, the other half is over-drinking and nightmarish...... seems to have loosened the tag of self-control in a situation where any price alcohol is free and all-you-can-drink.

Inside the restaurant, something completely quiet already.

Only the sound of the Demon King or Alice cleaning up dishes is to such an extent that it occasionally sounds catchy.

The remnants are endless, but it will be time to open them.

This concludes the annual meeting.

This year, which has been a lot of things, this is it for you.

I'm just wondering if there's thirty minutes until the date changes. Everyone thinks the year will end with nothing like this anymore.

"Do you still want to go in about one of the shime dishes?

By that time, I had a pleasant surprise.

Lisa, who had been pulling into the kitchen for some time, came back to the floor with a bowl-ridden basin. The contents of the bowl are soba noodles dipped in warm tsuyu. Apparently, I've been making soba noodles for the year.

It is still early on New Year's Eve in Japan because there is a slight time difference between the Earth and this world, but in the unique air of this past year, Nanica, deeply engraved in Japanese DNA, must have sought the aroma of soba.

The size of the bowl is smaller because it is after eating and drinking scattered.

There is a small fry on the soba.

"Soba noodles make a lot of sense."

Keep the elongated shape a longevity prayer.

Turning from the fact that the soba flour worked out by the engineer was used for the purpose of picking up and collecting gold flour, it leads to the desire to improve gold luck.

Because you believe that soba has the drug effect of removing gut poison, it also means a health prayer.

"And soba is easier to cut than other noodles, isn't it? If you eat at the end of the year, you'll have to cut this year's troubles and carry it over the next year."

It is unclear whether Japanese-style wishes are valid in different worlds, but without this kind of bean knowledge, it is something that will change the wonder and taste. After listening to Lisa's commentary, everyone left seemed intrigued and started eating it.

First, soba noodles are rinsed with sulphur.

Then put your mouth on the edge of the bowl and zuzzle the warm tsuyu.

The smell of soba flutters and tickles the nasal cavity, which is unspeakably pleasant.

Of the fever that falls on my stomach, what kindness.

I thought I was full, but I can't help but carry it to my mouth.

When my appetite comes back that way, I'm concerned about the golden frying that sits on the soba.

The stir-fried seeds are simply thinly sliced onions and three leaves.

But if it's a meal simmer, it's too powerful to be a shrimp heaven but a pit heaven. The small size with only about two or three bites is also something that in this case would be appreciated the other way around.

Because it has been a little while since I immersed myself in Tsuyu, the bottom of the stir frying feels like a little bit of juice. The top surface remained crisp, but its lightness had already been lost from the bottom.

But it is the tempura soba liver that has stained and softened its tsuyu.

Crisp part on the top surface and soft part on the bottom.

It is truly luxurious to think that you can enjoy both of those sensations at the top if you take a bite.

Turn it into soba noodles. Turn it into udon, and put some fried foods on a juicy noodle dish because you want to taste the strangeness of this texture.

"Then it's time to go home."

Simme's new year soba noodles have also been eaten, and the atmosphere is finally opening up.

Lisa can't stay too late either, due to her status as a high school student living at her parents' house. I'm willing to help clean up and clean dishes, but that's not how it works.

I have an alibi job on the way out and back to the house once and tell them I'm going to sleep early, but if they see a deserted private room on some kind of clap, it's going to be very troublesome.

"And before you do... Alice, do you have a minute?

"What is it, Lisa? Is the time okay?

"Yeah, maybe it'll be over soon... you know, I need a favor"

"Yeah, yes...... eh?... Are you insane?

"Of course, what if Alice is good..."

Lisa eared something to Alice.

That seemed very unexpected and Alice is making her eyes black and white.

"I don't mind... it's better than being left alone without knowing... but is that okay?

"Yeah, fine. Otherwise, it's not fair... and, you know, before the year breaks out, I'm just trying to get rid of the rest of my heart."

"Lisa is really stubborn because she has the nerve to do something weird."

"Am I that stubborn?

Alice has a bitter smile that mixes interest and fright.

But at the end of the day, he seemed convinced and shook his head vertically.

◆ ◆ ◆

"Demon King, do you have time now?

"That, what's wrong with you both?

Alice and Lisa came under the Demon King, who was dishwashing in the kitchen.

For some reason Lisa is the only one with a bright red face.

"Uh... so I'm really telling you, am I?

"Yeah, go ahead!

Alice's final confirmation doesn't seem to change Lisa's resolve. I'm royal, eating my teeth off, trying to withstand something.

And Alice told the Demon King.

"Now, as you cross the border... Cohon, the Demon King"

"Yeah, what's up, Alice?

"No, Lisa, not me. Lisa."

So, Alice told him.

"Master Demon, Lisa likes you, too. She loves you just as much as I do."

"Huh?... Huh?

There will be no need for the Demon King to be confused.

If that word is true, I don't know what it means to convey it by such a roundabout means. Even Alice, who thus made a confession on her own behalf, and was confessed, does not want to repay her in such an unintelligible way.

Even if she's not willing to give way to the Demon King, Alice thinks the confession of love should be more romantic. Even if I'm wrong, it doesn't make me the person I'm dishwashing in my usual kitchen.

There's really been a lot going on today.

Lisa, too, may have put on the table such aggressiveness that she is usually very unable to demonstrate, and the remnants of it have still left her to take such unreasonable action.

I was forced to cut off the pain of remaining heartfelt.

I honestly assumed and executed that this would be the only way to relieve the guilt that had embezzled Alice's confession. I let it run, to be exact, though.

"Well, that's what I'm talking about! Have a good year then!

Lisa, who made her confession in a very roundabout way, returned with a transfer with her greeting at that time.

At that moment, the date just changed.

The old year ends and a new year begins.

For the Demon King, it will be a tumultuous year coloured with sarcasm and confusion.
