Second Story Online: Aiming To Become The World’s Number 1. Ideal Witch

119 · Confectionery and Dealing with the Devil

A few days after the deal with Ange, the female lord of Dailord.

The delivery has been completed, so thankfully a lot of money is rolling into my pocket.

Not only that, but the sales of the store are good recently, so I don't think I'll be worried about the lack of money.

Well... most of the store's sales are Earl's cakes.

"I can't help it. Earl's cake is delicious."

It was just a short time, so I decided to take a break and get Earl's cake.

"Ahh... this apple tart is also sweet and delicious!

Garnished with a sweet yellow lily honey stewed apple grasset wrapped around it like a flower, it looks like a red bouquet and is beautiful. The sakuri-yaki tart dough is also the best.

"Yeah, yeah. Really, the cake here is exquisite ~"

When I looked next door, I saw a girl with a child.

To make the same apple tart a small bite size, I used a fork to stretch my cheeks.

"Ha...!?

"Oh, oneechan, what's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost?

The ghost and nothing... the girl in front of me was supposed to be dead once in a small village.

"You... Lili, right?

"It's because of you!

As at that time, there was a demonic Lili transformed into a girl.

"Ah! Don't give me weapons or anything. I'm here as a customer today."

"I don't remember allowing the Devil to enter the store."

"I don't remember hearing you banning it. Well, that's fine. If you make a loud noise, it will cause trouble to other customers.

I didn't expect Lili to tell me the line the clerk should say.... but when I saw it, I really didn't do anything, and I'm still eating the cake.

"Why are you... here?"

"Today is off-duty. Are you the one who doesn't slowly make tea at the café on holidays? I came because I heard it was a reputation... but I'm impressed by the rumors!

Thank you very much for that.... I didn't think our cake had a reputation not only for the lord, but also for the demons.

"Hey hey, that oak pastry chef is nice. Why don't you give it to Lili?

"I won't give it to you."

Er, Kechi!

My Earl is not a pastry chef, he is my servant.

Recently, rather than being a pastry chef, I've been able to do a lot of things.

To make furniture, to make canes, to make sweets... oh my God, isn't my Earl a genius, perhaps?

"Still... you really have no purpose?

"Nooo, you have zero credit! Well, I had a purpose. But if you're so suspicious, why don't we just stop?

"What is it?

"Hey, why don't you make a deal with Lily?

"Let's not do this."

"Hey, don't refuse without even listening!"

"Dealing with demons is definitely not a busy business. If you knew that, you'd be as stuck as you really are."

"... that's why I talked to you."

"Who?

"Chloe, you're right!

Now Lili looks like a human. No horns, no wings, just a kid.

However, the only smile was a little devilish smile that came out like a demon.

"I'll tell you what. Lili has benefits, so hold on."

"Are you sure Lili has only benefits?

"That's not true.... hey, Chloe, your sister is bothered by those red foods, right?

"Why do you think so?

"After all, oneechan... it seemed like she was being watched by a nasty red-food guy. I wonder why they're targeting me."

Karari and Lili-chan stir up the straw of ice tea.... Lili-chan, you don't know exactly why I'm being targeted. But there are rumors going on, so you can guess to some extent.

"Lili, I want to crush those red foods."

"Is this a struggle...?

"Yes! It's not a bad story, is it?

... Lili seems to be hostile to the Red Hood. Are the enemies on your side? But it's hard to be honest with her.

"I can't nod until I know what you're up to."

"... yes, I'm sorry. But you don't have much time, do you?

"We don't have time...?

"Because it's about time..."

I heard a loud noise to block Lili's words. The noise was the door of the shop, because it was opened with momentum. And at the same time, the sound of people falling down.

"... Tsubaki-san?

The tall girl in black - Tsubaki - fell down at the store.

"What's wrong!? What the hell....."

"Chloe... which"

Looking at it, it looks worn out... low HP. It may have died a little later (...).

"... the seat link fell into the hands of the Royal Raptor Army..."

"... eh? Raptarica....?

"--ahh, it's already fallen. Ha ha!"

Lili's voice was a small one that no one else could hear. But I heard the wonder and the voice.

"Looks like the war between the Swarovs and the Raptors has already begun.
