Unorthodox Guild

"Ugh—"

A black-haired girl strolled down the street, her mouth agape, taking in the surrounding scenery.

Beneath the rows of houses, there were demons with small horns, elf ladies with long ears, and groups of orcs and humans on sightseeing tours—it was a lively and joyous scene.

"Next, we will visit the Demon King's Castle, where the former Demon King lived."

The tour guide, with a sunny smile, pointed his flag into the distance, where a magnificent castle could be vaguely seen.

"This, here..."

Is this really the Demon King's Castle?

Yura stood frozen in place, listening to the girl's explanation, her lips trembling slightly.

"After the Demon King and the Hero signed the contract, the Demon King's castle no longer needed to operate for the sake of war..."

"As a symbol of that era, the former Demon King donated the entire Demon King Castle, which has now become a famous tourist attraction."

"So, everyone should cherish this peace, meow~"

"?"

"Ugh..."

Yura rubbed her eyes and stretched.

It's so warm... How long has it been since I've had such a warm sleep?

"Although I felt like I had a weird dream... Ugh!"

As Yura slowly opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the black-haired boy staring into her eyes.

"Hmm, this guy seems to have returned to normal."

As he exhaled, he glanced meaningfully at the girl on his lap, seemingly lost in thought.

Yura, however, was not so calm.

I felt the warmth coming from all around me.

"Huh, huh??"

He looked around again.

"Ugh, why, why..."

He then realized that he had actually fallen asleep on Kaya's lap.

Not only that, the way the black-haired boy looked at him just now was also inexplicably strange...

"Yes, I'm so sorry, Mr. Kaya!!!"

Ignoring the blush on her face, she stood up instantly and quickly bowed deeply to the boy on the wooden chair.

"Although, I don't know why I fell asleep on Mr. Kaya."

"Forehead......"

"But, but Yura is really sorry, please don't fire me... Waaah."

"Um, Yura..."

Seeing the girl's eyes welling up with tears, Kaya quickly reached out to interrupt her.

"Sleeping on me... I don't really mind."

I don't care anymore.

In Kaya's opinion, he should thank the girl for her actions, compared to the robbers who occupied his bedroom.

"Waaaaah, I'm so sorry..."

They also seemed to notice that Kaya wasn't angry.

The girl wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and forced a smile at Kaya.

"Mr. Kaya, you're such a good person..."

"..."

You're telling me that you're praising me.

"never mind."

shook his head.

I glanced at the mess the guild was in...

"..."

And a cat and a person hiding behind an overturned table eating watermelon.

"While you're eating fruit, hurry up and tidy up the living room!"

He sighed and turned to look at the black-haired girl who was still wiping away her tears, looking pitiful.

If his body hadn't just suffered a near-devastating blow, he would never have been able to connect this apocalyptic scene with the thin-armed, thin-legged Yura in front of him.

"Yura, do you remember what just happened?"

Because I don't know if Yura's apology included the damage to the house and the assault.

Noticing the girl again, who seemed unconcerned about the mess behind her, he continued to ask her questions.

"Ugh, no, I don't know."

"..."

As expected.

Looking at Yura, who was standing in front of him with her head down, poking her fingers like a girl who had made a mistake.

Although Kaya wasn't a psychologist, the girl didn't seem to be running away from anything, judging from the feeling he got from her.

As for what the reference point is for this feeling...

"Boss, why are you suddenly looking at Elisa's stuff?"

"..."

He touched the non-existent beard on his chin: "I think I've heard that people with the power of intoxication have a chance of not being able to recall that out-of-control memory."

"..."

and.

Even though Kaya and Yura had only known each other for a short half-day.

But he was still very confident in his intuition.

The girl in front of me was different from those who did bad things and then pretended to be stupid; she possessed a heart of gold and kindness.

"Hmm."

Sensing the growing malice in her gaze, Elisa quickly averted her eyes.

"..."

Take your eyes off the unserious white guy.

"Ugh..."

He reached out and patted Yura's head.

"It's nothing, just don't drink any of the weird drinks offered in the guild in the future..."

"Phew, the boss is so incredibly kind, just like a male protagonist in a light novel. But I'm getting a little tired of seeing him like that..."

"You're so noisy!"

Kaya finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Come on, Elisa, let's go out and fight, right now."

"Eh—"

The girl's voice was drawn out.

"Boss, are you that thirsty? Saying things like that in broad daylight..."

"......no."

"However, Elisa is fine."

She put a finger to her lips, her little face slightly flushed, and swayed her body.

"You said it... so you'd better have a good fight."

"..."

You're invincible.

【Sithonia Potato Stir-fry (Exquisite)】

Category: Food

[Effects: Satiety 3, Energy Boost 1]

[Without the overpowering effects of spices, only the ingredients themselves remain, the moving breath of the earth.]

After creating countless dishes, you have finally produced a pure Sisonia dish.

After spending a long time, we finally cleaned up the guild hall.

Because it was so late, and Lilia's stomach was starting to rumble, they ended up having dinner together at the guild again.

"Ugh—"

The girl, her eyes sparkling, stared intently at the food on the plate, which resembled a work of art.

"I don't know the difference between potatoes and spuds, but they look so delicious... Ugh!"

Before Yura could react...

The potatoes on the plate had vanished completely, as if they had been transported to another world.

"Huh, huh?"

Not even a drop of oil was left.

"Hehehe, Yura, little sister, hehe."

The purple catgirl's mouth was stuffed full: "Let me teach you the first rule of the Cat Guild, meow, first come, first served... Mmm!"

Kaya hit him on the head again.

"You bastard, it was fine when it was just the two of us."

"Mr. Kaya, Yura doesn't mind..."

"Don't spoil that cat!"

"Meow..."

Looking at Lilia, who shrank back, he said, "Now that there are more people in the guild, can't you act like a guild leader?"

"Not to mention Yura just arrived, who would dare stay here looking like this..."

He gave Lilia a stern lecture: after all, it wasn't easy to get a gold item, and he didn't want such a serious guild member to be scared away by Lilia.

"Waaah, I'm sorry, meow..."

The two cats' ears drooped down, and Lilia's voice became much weaker.

"..."

"Sigh, never mind, just know it."

Looking at the dejected purple object, Kaya sighed.

After all, they had known each other for so long, and he knew that this guy was often just a bit slow on the uptake and didn't mean any harm.

Kaya himself didn't care: the inexplicable words appearing on the dishes made him lose his appetite.

"but."

With so many people in the guild right now, if we don't talk to Lilia properly, it might easily cause misunderstandings...

"Lilia is going to throw it up now, meow. Sorry, meow, Yura, ugh."

"Hello!!!"
