The Coffee Shop in a Different World Station

"Huh, you've been busy today. Even so, I don't know if you were quick to attract customers today."

Roland, the kitchen of the "swordfish" coffee shop that closed the day, circled his neck as he cleaned up afterwards.

Luna, who was helping next door, is also wiping her plate with sweat on her forehead.

"I think we've finished a little early these days. Eh. But I've been really busy since that big ship came along, haven't I? Oh, it's over here!

"Thank you! Thanks to Luna for helping out like this, even if she's busy, she's doing something about it."

"Well, I'm a little bit of a help, so it's not at all."

"No, no, Luna's always trying, and I think we're all really helping. Maybe it's more useful than all the big rabbits out there?

Fidel, a fox-eared boy who was working on today's tightening at a small table in a corner of the kitchen, deliberately interrupts the two stories and slaps the haters.

Of course, Roland hasn't shut up either.

"Huh! Hey, who do you think's to blame for the line of merchandise in that store?

"Damn, you don't even know the joke and the seriousness. That's what's negative about it!

"Look, if you can't do it before Mr. Takumi gets back, he's pissed off! It's only after work that we get along!

"Ugh, that's enough!" "That's right..."

When I came to "Swallow," I was just a loose end, Luna, but I'm used to life here, and I've been running around a lot every day to help with shops at my school, so it seems like I've been getting a lot firmer here lately.

Roland and Fidel were just a little twitchy with Luna, who had begun to be somewhere powerful, even as she was happy with her “sister's share” to show her growth.

Takumi then came back to the kitchen as the three of them were in charge while talking to Wye.

Takumi calls out to the three of them as they plush the sweat on their foreheads with their sleeves

"Phew, good job. Are you done yet?

"You're almost done! All you have to do is take the ingredients of tomorrow that you just planted into the groceries."

"I can tally the tightening here, too. Can I check it out later, please?

"Copy that. Thank you, Luna, for helping me clean up."

"No. Eh! I'd be happy to help."

"Luna always works hard! That's why I need a reward!

Soon Nyarch, who had come to the kitchen, stuck around trying to stretch his neck from behind Takumi.

Takumi, taking a sigh of relief, immediately turns behind Nyarch and grabs and lifts her back.

"Damn, you want me to give that a break because it's hot..."

"Don't worry about the details! So, what are we gonna do about the reward for Luna?

Then Nyarch, who got out and landed on the ground, even naturally speaks with a face.

There seemed to be something about the word that Takumi thought too, and he put his hand on his chin, Hmm.

"That's right. Luna, of course, has worked hard for both Roland and Fidel, and shall I have something to reward you for today? Is the ice still there?

"No. I got more today, and I still have more! I mean, could it be ice..."

"Yeah, I finished cleaning up early today, and let's all get some shaved ice..., Snow Hua (Niebe Flor)"

Harpertown, which had summer, had stronger sunshine than usual and still had hot days like midsummer even at this time when it was supposed to be a summer run.

Even though it got somewhat cooler in the evening, when I'm in the kitchen where I use fire, I get sweat all over my forehead just standing.

I happened to get Nyarch ahead of me today, but as a takumi I was just hoping to do something for the three of us who work hard in the kitchen.

It is a small gift from Takumi, but for the three young people it seemed to be an undesirable story.

Fidel, in particular, has an eye-opening, surprising look on her face.

"Snow Hua (Niebe Flor) is the one we talked about at last year's exposition, right? Are you sure you can eat here?

"That's right. Actually, it was originally made by my master."

"Wow! I wanted to try it once. Shh!

"I didn't put it in the store last year because of my promise to Mr. Sophia. I'm getting an OK this year, so it was time to serve it as a 'swordfish' dessert. So let's all eat one foot at a time."

"That's what makes you feel better! Kaori! Kaori!

On Takumi's words, Nyachi began to dance with a satisfying look on his face, mumbling a mysterious melody.

Takumi speaks out to Roland as he watches with a look like a man.

"Then you'll have ice, syrup, and more utensils. Roland, can I ask you to help me get ready?

"No!!

"Oh, I'll help you, too! Kaori! Ah!"

Luna blushes her cheeks as Nyarch's singing shifted unexpectedly.

Both Fidel and Roland were unintentionally grinning at what a cute look that was.

―――――

"Wow! It's really beautiful! It's such a waste to eat!

Luna cheered loudly first when the shaved ice that could have been served was arranged in front of each person who moved to the hall.

On a clear glass vessel, ice, thinly shredded as snow, piles high and mountainous.

And on that white snowskin was plenty of thickened yellow sauce.

"Today, combined with the prototype of the new work, I sprinkled the sauce I made with the mango crushed from the top. I'm adding Naranja (orange) squeeze juice and honey (miele), so I think it's sweet and sour."

"I was prototyping last year, so you're powering up again for a while! Can I have it now?

"Yep. Luna, too, it melts when you just keep looking at it, so please enjoy it"

"Yes!

"I can't wait either!!

"Yes, yes, nigga! Everybody said," Don't fuck with me! "

Using Nyarch's words as a signal, Luna to Roland, plus Fidel, quickly reached for the shave ice.

Luna and Fidel, who are the first to eat the shaved ice themselves, show confusion without knowing where to spoon from.

On the side of it, Nyarch cheeked one after the other, stirring gently with a shaky spoon in the shake ice.

"Knock, knock, knock!... Whoa, I knew I was gonna be Keane."

"What!? What's the matter, man?

Luna looks worried about Nyarch holding his temples.

Fidel seems restless, too.

But Takumi didn't mean to.

"Yes, this is a bad example. Your head can be keen if you eat too much ice in a hurry, so be careful, Fidel, you and Luna."

"I'd love to hang out...... Wouldn't worry me."

"Because that, I did it last year, too. I mean, you know it's gonna happen, and you're pulling it in, right?

"That being said, don't worry about the details! Kaori, whoa, whoa."

Without even lending his ear to Takumi's sarcasm, Nyarch holds his temples when he carries the shaved ice to his mouth at a high pace.

(a) Roland spoke up to the two people who were unable to grasp the situation properly.

"I can't be too slow because it melts, but if I don't scratch in like Mr. Nyarch, I'll be fine. Look, stirring it like this...... Mmm! It's good!"

"Oh well. Then I too..."

Fidel also began to move the spoon so that he could follow Roland with a cheeky, happy look on his cheek.

Combine shaky, shaky, ice and mango sauce with a spoonful to carry to the mouth.

"Ho! Put it on!

With a bite on his cheek, the intense cold of the ice and the sweet and sour taste of the mango sauce spread all over his mouth.

And the ice in his mouth quickly swells away, becoming cold water and moisturizing the back of his throat.

A taste I've never experienced, but it's this hot time that made this cold feel more like a 'treat' than anything else.

"It's so delicious! I've never seen anything like it before!

Luna seems to have liked the shaved ice so much that even if it's not as good as Nyarch's, she's going to go ahead and eat it on a pretty fast pitch.

Takumi called out worried about the way it looked.

"Luna, if you eat too fast, you'll have a headache like Nyarch, so you should take it a little slower"

"Is that right? I'm perfectly fine so far..."

Luna with her little neck over Takumi's words,

Apparently, she's not in a "ice cream headache” physical condition.

Takumi, who confirmed it, smiles.

"It's fine if you're okay. But if it's going to hurt, please slow down. Well, I hope you're eating, but just fine, so I'd like to talk to you about the steps you're taking from tomorrow, okay?

"" "" "Yes!" "!"

Takumi nods one more nod to the four aligned replies.

And he began to explain, with his usual gleaming look on his face.

"Tomorrow, some of the 'Violetta' customers will be boarding the final train from our station as group guests. Related to this, Hernando, along with the group's guests, asked us to stop by the 'swordfish' before boarding to enjoy desserts and drinks. And I want you to have a little something to pinch on the train."

"I see. And how many of them?

"We ask about 10 customers. In addition to that, there are two more staff members, Lord Hernando and the 'Violetta', who accompany the customer. And apart from that, they have a group of special customers.

"Heh, if you do, are some of you super upper-class like you would normally use a first-class car?

Fidel mouths simple questions.

In response to that question, however, Takumi swept his neck aside.

"It's not. The“ special passenger ”means the owner of the ship, or the owner of the Violetta."

"What! That doesn't mean more amazing people!?

"You will. I won't even be greeting guests because it's not an official visit, but I know you'd like to be close to it. When we arrived at this" swordfish, "we decided to take you upstairs to a private room separate from the rest of the guests."

"Um, I mean..."

As I perceived the intent of the word, Roland speaks softly.

Takumi, in contrast, concurred with Kokuri and returned the answer.

"Yeah, I'm sure I'll be able to handle that, so I'll leave the sales downstairs somewhat to you. The last order for lunch will be cut up early, so Roland sends his regards to the kitchen and Nyarch and Luna to the hall. Fidel, can you help me prepare some souvenirs for the train?

"Of course! You can't miss such a good business opportunity!

Fidel, who smelled business perfectly, nodded vigorously with her fox ears pinned.

Losing it, Roland also uttered words with his ears peaned.

"I'll do my best too! Leave the kitchen to me!

"I'm off to school tomorrow too, so I'll do my best to help over here! Nice to meet you, Mr. Nyarch."

"You got it! Hang in there with me!!

Luna and Nyarch's hall set also shows good temper.

This would be reassuring.

Takumi, who nodded more slowly, called out to the four of them.

"Well, thank you again tomorrow. Let's meet for each detail. Now it's time..."

Just then, when Takumi tried to talk about something, the sound of Karan Karan Karan rang from the doors of the doors of the 'swordfish'.

Theo, who came to the hall with a paragraph of work, spoke as he wiped his sweaty forehead

"Phew, ready to accept tomorrow's group, I'm finally done...... what are we all eating?

"Ah, Mr. Theo..."

In that hand Luna snapped a potpourri, a vessel of glass that was completely emptied was gripped.

When Theo looks at the other four at hand with his neck clenched, there are still empty vessels lined up in the same way.

"What, were you even eating something good without me?

"No, I'm sorry. I totally forgot about Mr. Theo. No, it's nice to have a shake ice for everyone. I'll make it right away, so wait a minute..."

"Uh, ice, I just used it all! We're out of stock!

"Oh, you're in trouble. I'm sorry, can I see you tomorrow?

"Are you serious? Huh!?

Accidentally forgotten, what a sad voice Theo was.
