“””…””” (Everyone)

 

“Hey disperse assh*les!!!” (Jiro)

 

“”Tsk.”” (Outsiders)

 

 

As the unwanted outsiders gathered, I dispersed them with the activation of [Intimidating Monkey Scream].

 

If possible, I’d like the party members to refrain as well, but

 

 

“I’m excited, that I am! What the?!” (Minami)

 

“Oh, We’re eating dinner over there.” (Masaru)

 

“Ma~sa~ru~” (Minami)

 

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’ll be over there having a drink.” (Kaido)

 

“Oh, I’m coming with you. Good luck, Suela.” (Jiro)

 

 

My party members are reliable.

 

Seeing us off, only me, Suela, and Memoria remain.

 

In the corner of the bar, by the window, there’s a great view of the ocean.

 

There, Memoria waited patiently for my answer.

 

 

“Well, I have a girlfriend you know?” (Jiro)

 

“I know.” (Memoria)

 

“I don’t have a great career you know?” (Jiro)

 

“That does not matter.” (Memoria)

 

“I’m not longing for a harem, though.” (Jiro)

 

“Get used to it.” (Memoria)

 

“I don’t have the confidence to treat you equally.” (Jiro)

 

“If I’m lonely, I’ll come to you.” (Memoria)

 

“I’m human, you know?” (Jiro)

 

“It’s fine, I’m weird.” (Memoria)

 

“…I’m the one who is going to die first.” (Jiro)

 

“Then leave me proof that you lived.” (Memoria)

 

“You are quite stoic.” (Jiro)

 

“It’s the first time I’ve heard that.” (Memoria)

 

 

All the answers were more like yes.

 

I’ve come this far. I’m ready to go further.

 

 

“All right, I’m gonna tell you things that are really bad.” (Jiro)

 

“Okay.” (Memoria)

 

“I love Suela.” (Jiro)

 

“I know.” (Memoria)

 

“I’ve always thought of you as a friendly shopkeeper.” (Jiro)

 

“I know.” (Memoria)

 

“I honestly don’t know how to deal with you.” (Jiro)

 

“I know.” (Memoria)

 

“So…”

 

“Yes.” (Memoria)

 

“I will try to love you from now on.” (Jiro)

 

“Yes.” (Memoria)

 

 

The second wife candidate announcement was made.

 

 

“Well, is that it?” (Jiro)

 

“If it weren’t for the sigh at the end, I’d give you a perfect score.” (Memoria)

 

“Don’t be absurd.” (Jiro)

 

 

My liver isn’t thick enough to be able to do a fork in the background.

 

I’m so sick that I don’t know when the magic will fly from behind, and I wonder if this choice was still good when I thought that it would be a battle between these two people at worst.

 

 

“Ah, I’m sorry Suela.” (Jiro)

 

“No, I felt like there’s something.” (Suela)

 

“That I’m having an affair?” (Jiro)

 

 

I think that’s terrible, but in fact, I suddenly have an affair on the side.

 

I can’t help but laugh bitterly and say I can’t deny that.

 

With a bitter smile, I picked up the liquor on the table and took a long sip.

 

 

“No, Jiro would never cheat on his wife.” (Suela)

 

 

However, Suela gently dismissed my words.

 

 

“What is your basis?” (Jiro)

 

“That’s a secret.” (Suela)

 

“What do you mean?” (Jiro)

 

“All women have secrets, and it’s the common sense between all of us.” (Suela)

 

“Is that true? Memoria?” (Jiro)

 

“Yes.” (Memoria)

 

 

I don’t know what’s going on, but it seems that Suela and Memoria already have some sort of common understanding.

 

In front of me, they are laughing.

 

 

“I never thought that I would reach a period where I would become popular.” (Jiro)

 

 

One is a dark elf and the other a vampire, different types, but both are definitely beautiful.

 

It’s a unique combination that would never happen in real life.

 

 

“Are you happy about it?” (Suela)

 

“That’s a tough question, Suela. Normally, I wouldn’t be able to deny it or confirm it, but yes, I’m happy right now.” (Jiro)

 

“Well, then I guess it was worth it for me to tell you how I feel.” (Memoria)

 

“If possible, I wanted you to choose a better timing.” (Jiro)

 

“I regret that, but I don’t regret doing it.” (Memoria)

 

“Please do.” (Jiro)

 

“Yes, I’ll reflect on it, later.” (Memoria)

 

“Hummm? What!?” (Jiro)

 

“Hmm, it’s just a kiss, was it bad?” (Memoria)

 

“You.” (Jiro)

 

“That’s fine. I’m not just one step behind Suela, I’m several steps behind her. I’ll take the atmosphere into account next time.” (Memoria)

 

 

The first time I kissed a vampire, I did not taste blood, it was a cold but passionate kiss.

 

It was only a few seconds of contact, and the way she touched and licked my lips made me feel a different kind of heat than the drunkenness of alcohol.

 

 

“Jiro.” (Suela)

 

“Yes, yes!” (Jiro)

 

“Oh.” (Memoria)

 

 

And even I, as expected, know what happens next.

 

I think the reason why the harem protagonists of the world are so insensitive is to prevent this kind of hassle, you know?

 

Well, the men of the world will probably complain about what I’m getting out of the role, and I myself seem to be happy with the choice, so I’ll have to respond.

 

 

“You’ll have to put up with this for now.” (Jiro)

 

“Yes.” (Suela)

 

 

This is the limit of my aggressiveness.

 

 

“Sen-mm-pai! —What are you doing?” (Kaido)

 

“Oh, Kaido you’re alright?” (Jiro)

 

“I’m alright? No, I’m not! Here you are, starring in a romantic comedy all by yourself? While I’m covered in alcohol, a total wreck. Then, while I’m taking a shower, you gained a girlfriend! Come on—!?” (Kaido)

 

 

And apparently, this is the end of the romantic comedy development.

 

 

“Is it over, that it is?” (Minami)

 

“Well, I don’t know why I’m here on a day where I might have already been dumped, it’s a completely horrible day.” (Karen)

 

“Congratulations Jiro, you are now a member of the Demon King’s army.” (Kaley)

 

“Senior Kaido, do you want to eat some?” (Masaru) [T/N: Masaru Kaa!]

 

 

I’m not sure if they were just waiting, sensing the mood, or called out by Kaido’s shouting, but the original members are all here.

 

 

“I’m going to burn this place to the ground! There’s nothing anyone can do to stop me now!” (Kaido)

 

“The Demon of Food Fights is born. It’s not a good title, that it isn’t.” (Minami)

 

“That’s why you’re not popular.” (Karen)

 

“You just said something you shouldn’t have! A woman who is dumped can’t know how I feel!!!” (Kaido)

 

“Okay, I’ll fight you. Are you ready to be a popsicle?” (Karen)

 

“Keep it in moderation.” (Kaido)

 

“”Senior/You don’t get to say anything!!!”” (Kaido & Karen)

 

 

The original food fight resumed, and it was a noisy day after all.

 

 

*Boom!*

 

 

“Ah? Is it a power outage?” (Jiro)

 

“……This is.” (Suela)

 

“Suela?” (Jiro)

 

“No way, we’re in a dungeon, there’s no such thing as a power outage.” (Suela)

 

 

It was going to be a day.

 

The lights went out, and the whole area went dark.

 

The testers thought it was a power outage, but the members of the Demon King’s Army reacted differently.

 

A tense atmosphere began to fill the air.

 

An unpleasant odor hung in the air.

 

The bad feeling I had when I was working for a black company and my ability to sense danger after becoming a tester rang alarm bells.

 

 

“Huh, I wish they’d let me relax on my days off.” (Jiro)

 

 

My tone was relaxed, but I could feel my expression becoming serious as I sobered up.
