Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

20 The Diary of the Seven-Member Demon Luli

■ February × day

I had a little time, so I went to see Ethel. As usual, I was feeling irritated. But lately, I've had more and more friends with people other than Nils, and they're having more fun. I was delighted that the girls said "cute". It seems to be popular with the elderly. It's a little creepy, but it's nice to have a human manners.

I got a snack at Eale's snack time. It's a souvenir cookie with a maiden mark that you sell at a souvenir shop near the cathedral. Thank you, Nils! It was very good with lots of butter and honey. It tasted sweet and gentle like Shiori made it for me. Happiness.

When I wondered if I could eat Yale, I was told that I couldn't eat it because I was a plant. I don't really understand that I can drink but I can't eat it. When I asked if I could suck it up because it looks like the tentacle, I was told, "Don't be rude because it's different from the slime." That, uh, mouth is like... "This is just a speech organ"... hmm... I see.

I went to the Enandel Chamber of Commerce with Alec today for a nomination. A present for Alec's brother, and he wants to make a back pack of slimes the size of his own. It's a slime-only backpack. That's why I thought I'd make it into a slime pattern, but it looks like it's made of solid beast skin.

Alec said he'd buy you something delicious instead of a reward. You can choose whatever you want. Wow, what should I do, what should I do? I like the sweets from the Enandel Chamber of Commerce. I would also like to try other foods dedicated to magicians, and I can't throw away street food.

Alec was very surprised when he said to the store, "I want to make a back pack with one slime." It was a bit strange that I had asked you back many times because I had misheard you. It seems that there are occasional people who make bags to put in small user-wizards, but this is the first time someone has said they want to put in a slime.

The person at the shop said, "Won't you bleed out and spill? I was asked worriedly. It's gonna be okay! If you work hard, I'll come out of the seam and do this, but it's not water, so normally it won't spill!

After measuring the size of my body, I got confectionery. It's a snack from the Enandel Chamber. Hmm, it's delicious no matter how many times you eat it. Peru said it was delicious too. I wonder if the next time I go home to the Aoi Forest I can make a souvenir for everyone. I don't think so. Maybe I should ask Theori.

Alec and Ciori received a letter. Alec said it was his brother and Ciori Annelier.

Alec said he wanted to talk to his brother and a woman he used to be close to in order to face the past. The letter seems to be the answer. Alec seemed anxious, but it seemed like a good answer. My brother and woman want to meet and talk to each other. Hope you can talk properly!

The letter from Annelier said she was coming to see you again. Someone I know at work wants to see Shiori. He seems to be the same Oriental as Ciori, but he seems anxious about why. Are you okay...?

Speaking of which, Peru's friend wondered why he was carrying Peru in his back, so he asked Peru through his fellow countrymen in the pale forest.

I thought maybe I'd play hide and seek, but it seemed different. Peru's friends are the kings of this country, so it's noticeable that they're taking Peru with them when they sneak out. The only blonde with a peach slime is the king. That's why they're hiding behind my back.

Is that so? It's hard for my friends to be great people.

Annelier and Dennis came. I'm glad you both looked well.

The Orientals were with him. I was a little surprised by the unusual appearance, but the most surprising thing was that the atmosphere was very similar to Shiori. Hair and skin colour were the same.

A man named Yae the Orient said that Shiori might be from a country called Mizuho. It seems that the appearance and name are very close to Mizuho people. But Shiori said it was completely different.

That's right. Theoli certainly didn't belong in this world. I don't care who Theoli is, but what about everyone? You might be very surprised. Oh, is that what Theori cares about?

Yae said he would come to Mizuho if he was struggling in this country. Looks like Yae is very worried about Shiori. Hmm. He's a good guy. But after all, Shiori was completely in trouble, and she was always acting strange. It was so weird that everyone took care to finish the story right away.

Theoli, I wonder if you're okay... but I wasn't okay at all.

Theoli was shocked to learn that she wasn't really human in this world. When everyone went home and only Alec and Zack were there, they cried.

It seems that Theori has always cared that she is not a human being in this world. To be honest, I thought Alec and Zach might hate you for making people think you're weird.

Hmm, I feel sad when Shiori is sad. But it's okay. Alec and Zach were both very surprised, but they didn't dislike Theoli. I also think Shiori is Shiori, so I don't care about anyone else at all! Don't cry.

But Alec said, "spit it out for what you've endured so far." If you want to cry, you can cry here now.

Yes. Even when people are sad, they endure it, but the sewer grandfather said it's better to cry a lot when it's really tough. Theoli has endured a lot so far, so I want you to cry a lot and feel a little better.

Nevertheless, Alec can be trusted. Seems like you know everything Theori wants you to say. I wonder how much you've been watching Shiori.

■ February × day

Zach visited the room at night. He wants to hear more about Shiori. Hmm, I think I'm feeling better crying a lot, but I'm still a little worried about talking a lot. It seems that Alec was the same. But since it's about Zach, I don't think it will be too much of a burden for Theoli. Because Zach seems to believe in Theoli somehow.

I talked a lot over dinner with the delicious meat Zach bought me and the preserved cilantro meal. He told me not only about Theoli, but also about Alec and Zach. Hmm, we all struggled. Slime's self has lived much more relaxed and enjoyable, so there's not much like that, but I once again thought that humans are really tough creatures.

Speaking of which, living in a herd increases the chances of survival, but the snow wolf also said it's a lot of trouble instead.

I was hoping that there would be a lot of good things to do from now on, because there were three people who had had a lot of trouble until now.

Again came the Oriental Yae. I'm with a man named Shonosky, the guard. I'm going to have Theori teach me how to cook today. They want to know what kind of food the kingdom can eat with Oriental condiments.

He apologized for causing trouble to Shiori the other day and gave me a lot of souvenirs. There were many things I had never seen before. This is all going to be a delicious dish. Hmm, I'm looking forward to it. Both Shiori and Alec seem to enjoy it.

All the dishes made by Shiori and Yae were very delicious. It seems that some people don't agree with the taste because it is flavored with unusual condiments, but I would like to refer to such opinions. Well, do you need a lot of opinions to make more delicious food? I wish I could have spoken, but it was all delicious... it might not be very helpful.

Even so, I can't forgive the person in the shop who sold soy sauce to Shiori at a very high price. I was shocked because I didn't look so bad. Maybe next time I'll sneak up and give you a black bug. Humans seem to hate that, so I'm sure they'll be surprised. Let's make it a fine guy in the sewer.

When I thought about it, the old man in the sewer told me to stop. You can't have that bug where you sell food. That's right. Peru said, "If you've done something wrong, you can melt your clothes! I was told, well, it's probably too cold for humans this season.

It seems that Shiori and the others have gotten along perfectly well with Yae and Shonoske. Alec and Clemens made a deal with Shonoske. Zach also wanted to come, saying that it was a rare opportunity to make contact with the Oriental Swordsman, but he couldn't because he had a job. Too bad. See you next time.

Everyone took a picnic with a lunch and went on a side tour. It's a little snowy, but there's magic in the air conditioning between the tent and Shiori, so don't worry! Yae and the others were surprised. I've never seen magic used so conveniently.

When the relationship started, the shounosuke was surprisingly strong. So strong, so strong Clement lost. I smiled all the time when I was eating, but it was a strange sign when I stood up for weapons. Even though it was a clean move, it was fluffy and kind of like a ghost, and Clement said there was nothing to catch. Alec said it was too much, but he managed to win. Hmm, they're all strong.

But when it was lunch time, both Shonoske and Alec smiled. Shiori rice is delicious!

Even so, the smell of shonosuke seems to be always delicious. The garlic miso butter made by Shiori and the smell of fapping.

Today I went to exterminate the Tris orphanage. Winter is less than summer, but it still bothers me. They don't seem to like it either, and when they find it, they scream and run away. Toby said, "This is just a bug!". That's different for my brother in the orphanage. I can count on you!

Everyone was delighted when we carefully cleaned the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. Jance invited me to the children's tea party instead of the reward. I enjoyed playing with her and eating delicious treats made by the nuns.

On his way home, he said to Jance, "I hope a slime like Lori will be in the orphanage. When you come, you usually smile at the children who tend to be blocked and the children who are dragged in."

Animal therapy is available in the rest of the country, and it seems to be gaining attention in the Kingdom recently. Touching cute animals and beasts has the effect of soothing and healing the body and mind.

I see. There are a lot of children in the orphanage with complicated circumstances. I was wondering if I could introduce my compatriots if it would help. It seems that some of my compatriots are interested in living with humans after listening to themselves and Peru. Just a slime who loves fun and happy things.

"It would be helpful if you could introduce me to your friends. Next time, please."

Very well! I'll ask my countrymen later!

■ February × day

Theoli was called by the border master. He's a great guy I met on my birthday. The lord who lives around here is a very good man. A friend of Zach's and a friend of Peru's. But Alec seemed a little uncomfortable. He used to take great care of me, and I couldn't get my head up. I was very surprised that Alec had something like that.

"... did you just think of something a little rude?

I think it's my fault.

Border Uncle Christopher wanted to hear the story of Shiori who came from a different world. I don't seem to be a bad person, but I felt like I could be a little alarmed. She wants to see if Theori is a good guy by Alec's side.

While talking, Theori showed me all sorts of illusions. I enjoyed seeing a lot of sights, food, and creatures in my hometown. Lots of buildings and food I've never seen before! In a world that can do more than this, humans have been to the moon before! Humans can't go, but ships alone can go far away to the stars. Oh, my God, that's amazing! The world of the moon and stars seen in the phantom of Shiori was very quiet and beautiful. That's good. I want to go someday!

Christopher seemed to be observing Theoli while talking, but he finally admitted it. Rather than believe it or not, it feels like "Shiori is not lying." Hmm, I don't really understand that kind of thing. But I'm glad you admitted it.

At the end, Christopher wanted to talk to Theoli only because he wanted to know one more thing. Alec and Zach didn't want to hear about it, and they both looked a little disgusting. If anything happens, I'll protect you! Christopher seems like Alec and Zack, so I don't know if I can win, but if it's time, you can try to melt the clothes Peru told you about.

Christopher was asking Theo something quite cruel. But it seems like we have to make sure. Alec's true identity is very high, so maybe he needs to break up with Shiori and be on another woman's side, which is interesting. I was asking what Shiori would do if that happened.

I thought maybe you were trying to get ready for Shiori. Theori knew that, so she answered her feelings honestly. I understand Alec's situation, but it's very sad that I can't be with him. It's hard to work hard all the time and try harder by myself, so I was very surprised to say that if I can't turn with Alec, I want him killed in an easy way. They're going to take care of Alec, kill him in a way that won't hurt, and just go home to their souls.

That's... sad... But if that happens, I thought I'd come with you. Recently, we have realized that there are many complicated situations in humans, and there are many things that cannot be helped. I know it's cruel to say that you should try harder. That's why I thought it would be nice for my friends to follow me if that would make it easier for Theoli.

Christopher was really surprised.

Seeing Shiori crying with honesty, Alec and Zack were also surprised. But Christopher was so important to Alec that he wanted to make sure he knew who was coming after him. Besides, Alec is the king's brother, so he doesn't want any weird or untrustworthy people around. Christopher doesn't want Alec to feel any harder.

Well, I don't want you to feel bad for someone you care about.

Theoli seems to have passed. Christopher promised to protect Theoli. Looks like you sneaked up on the escort. I am very happy that the number of Shiori allies is gradually increasing. That's good.

Surrounded by so many good people, Theoli and Alec are sure to be happy when it's their turn!
