There were no more eggs.That was a big problem.We couldn’t eat sunny-side-up fried eggs or scrambled eggs.We couldn’t make pudding or egg sandwiches.We had to get urgent replenishment.That was why:"Marie, I will go back to town. Do you want to come back, too?""Fueh?"Marie replied strangely."There are no more eggs, so I thought of going to the orphanage.""Big Sis Nicole is going back?"It was just a fast trip by transfer gate, though."That’s right. But you can just tour around in the capital. What will you do?""I will go back, too. Can I just say goodbye to Noa-sama?""Ah, it’s okay. We will be back today, after all.""……?"Marie tilted her head a little."What you are saying is we will go to town now, and will be back today?""That’s right."I don’t think we are on the same page."If we are fast, we will be back in the afternoon.""Big Sis Nicole, I would feel bad for the cats. Even if there is no more eggs, it’s okay. So don’t do something that will hurt the cats, please.
The next day, after obtaining the eggs, I went to the capital.With this, it would be okay for now.While I was taking my time inside the cat House, I heard a voice calling me from outside.When I went out, Noa stood there imposingly with puffed cheeks."Nicole-san, did you go somewhere while leaving me here all alone?""Can I ask something too?""What is it?""I don’t understand, does Noa have nothing else to do? Aren’t there any courtesy greetings or preparations that need to be done as a noble for the birthday party?""There aren’t. It’s basically because mother lives here that there is no need for greetings. The only greetings needed would be ones in the hall, during the birthday party. I will be accompanied by mother and father for that; and since the leading part will be going to my big sister, I’m just a bonus. More importantly, I came with Misa yesterday. She wanted to see the cats.""Sorry, I had some business outside the capital."I couldn’t tell her that I went back to town
The King went back.The trash outside disappeared too, and the calm of the room returned.However, there was a strange atmosphere…"Hmm…What’s the matter?"It felt like their gazes towards me changed…"Excuse me, Nicole-san, who are you really? Are you possibly a noble?"Morin-san timidly asked.Was it possible that she got scared, thinking I was a noble?"You are wrong. I am a normal adventurer.""But, you seemed really close to the king…""It was just misfortune that led me to meeting him.""But for the King to come meet you in person…""That’s just because he wanted to eat pudding, right?""But…"The two of them were really hard to convince, and even Marie began seeing me as a noble…The king brought unnecessary trouble.He suddenly appeared in front of people who had a difference in status that was like heaven and earth compared to him, and said that he knew one of the people there. It was normal for others to think that the person was someone abnormal too.It was the same in both
On the day of the birthday party, I was waiting for Eleanora-san to bring the pudding to the castle.As expected, it seemed that since there were a lot of people entering and exiting the castle today, I couldn’t enter by myself, even if I had an entry permit.Therefore, it had been decided that I would go with Eleanora-san."Marie, you really won’t come?""Yes, I will stay and watch the house."Since we met Princess Flora the last time we went to see the castle, it seems to have become a kind of trauma. Even though nothing really happened to her…as a commoner, Marie must have been stressed out just by seeing royalty.I didn’t want to force her, so I decided to go to the castle alone."Okay. I will try to come back as soon as I can."I decided go to the castle alone.As I was waiting at the cat House, Eleanora-san came."Hello.""Good morning.""Fufu, I really want to see everyone’s faces when they eat the pudding!"Eleanora-san, your wicked face is showing!"Seriously, don’t tell anyo
I was Marielly back at the cat House in Crimonia after a long time.The last time I was here, I immediately returned to the capital after buying eggs and making pudding.So I really did have the impression that it had been a long time."Big Sis Nicole, it was really fun, wasn’t it?""I am pleased that you think so. Since I have the transfer gate, we can go there whenever we want.""Yes, but next time I want to go with all my family.""I see, but don’t tell anyone about the gate, okay?""Okay."Marie was going to head home, so we parted ways there.I left the cat House to tell the people who had taken care of me that I was back.First, I headed towards the Adventurers’ Guild."Nicole-san, you are back?""Yes, I got back today.""But wasn’t the king’s birthday yesterday?""Well, about that…""Your summoned beasts can move really fast, huh.""Anyways, here, a souvenir."I bought an accessory that was popular in the capital."An accessory? Thank you very much."Since I really didn’t know
The next day, I went to the shop to prepare what was needed.Still, it was really big, huh.I had thought that if I had to make a shop, I would make something like a fast food place, so I couldn’t stop thinking about how big the mansion in front of me was.Well, just thinking about it wouldn’t resolve anything now that I had already bought it.The site’s condition left nothing to be desired.It was big and near the orphanage. Even though it was a little far from the center of the town, it wasn’t a distance that would stop the customers from coming.As soon as I entered the shop, I headed towards the kitchen.First, I had to make the stone ovens that were vital for baking.I placed the things that would’ve been a hindrance inside the cat Box, so that there would be enough space in the kitchen.I had prepared three stone ovens for baking bread and pizza.I hoped that this would be good enough.Well, I would just have to make more if it wasn’t.Next, I thought about what I should do for
The shop’s preparations were gradually coming to an end.There was just one problem.The shop’s name had yet to be decided.When I discussed the issue with Morin-san, she said:"It’s your shop, so Nicole-chan should decide."However, I had absolutely zero naming sense.It was to the point where I used my real name in games, because I had absolutely no confidence in my naming sense.That was why I decided to ask everyone I knew for a name.The next day, I assembled all the people I was indebted to and made a tasting party.The people who would be participating included the staff: Morin-san, Karin-san, and the six children helping the shop. Mylene-san and Helen-san. Terumi-san and Marie, the parent and child duo that had always taken care of me. Liz, who always took care of the children. Helena, from the inn. And Marielly Noa, who came back from the capital. These 15 people.I immediately asked them for a name."The cat’s Bakery""cat-san’s Dining Hall""The cat Pizzeria""The cat and P
Mylene-san said that she would prepare the signboard at the Commerce Guild.Since the name of the shop was 『cat-san’s Relaxing Shop』, the idea of making the shop more cat-like came up.Everyone suggested doing something that looked similar to the cat House, so that the customers would understand why it was named 『cat-san’s Relaxing Shop』.A cat-like shop, what sort of shop was that!?Did I have to make the entire shop look like a cat, like the cat House?Many different ideas were suggested up. In the end we decided on the shop’s name and the uniform, and then the tasting party ended.After everyone went back, I, who stayed at the shop, started to make the shop look like a 『cat-san’s Relaxing Shop』.First, I made two deformed cats with earth magic and put them at the entrance. They were like character figurines.In Japan, there were character figurines called nendoroids.I made the cats with those nendoroids as reference.I used clay.They were one color.I really wanted more colors…I
In the blink of an eye, almost one year has passed. The world destruction ritual was postponed because of Mayu’s death. Everyone was devastated and sad about the news. Especially to her significant other Maple. But this time Maple remains strong-willed and stays cheerful despite the happening. She continues living in the restaurant and assisting Akane. With Noah’s Plan in world destruction and making the whole world underwater using the genesis bearers powers failed. Princess and Isacia took advantage to defeat her. With all the royal family dead. Princess Charlotte was in charge of the whole kingdom. The true dragon race came into agreement with Princess Charlotte. The threat in the world was gone. Noah and Creator of Magic Mayu. A peace treaty was made. The leader of the true dragons the blue dragon girl named Cyan promised that the true dragons as part of the divine race will never gonna do anything that will harm the whole of humanity. The same promise was made by Princess Cha
I didn’t expect such an occurrence to happen. The surrounding was bright and full of happiness. There are some quarrels here and there but everything was moving fine.“There are too many customers we expanded and bring some tables and chairs outside the shop.”Using Megumi's plant magic. She created fairytale-style chairs made of vines and wood. From the roof, a big leaf was used. With that upgrade, the shop was looking magnificent from the outside.The customers are kept ongoing and everyone was helping us. Laura and Princess Charlotte already invested in the shop and brought many ingredients to keep the serving continue.With the insane challenge given to Akane. Akane was more fire up and started cooking in front of the customers like one of those live cookings.Seeing how big Akane’s smile was. I was thinking of Akane really wanted to become a sword saint. Cooking is a much better suit than her.“Can I also help the shop?”A little girl come and approached me.“Eh? Sorry but this i
The day has come. Waking up early in the morning. I opened my eyes. My room was still in darkness and the light was the ray of the morning sun coming from my window.I get up and seat on my bed. Made a big “Yawn~” and stretched my hands upward. It was still too early. The grand opening of our coffee shop was set at nine in the morning.Being the first one to wake up. I walked around the house and opened the main entrance door. Still with my exhausted self from sleep.“Well, gotta start getting things early…”Opening the door I saw a swarm of people waiting outside the restaurant. Even it was too early. There is a huge crowd waiting already.This is very surprising. I closed my eye’s again to check if I’m in reality.“Hmmm!”The breath burst from my mouth as I look at them.I closed the door and fixed myself as fast I can. I then wake up everyone whose still happily playing on their dreams. I pulled them out and presented them to the long line outside of the restaurant.“There are lots
It’s Autumn season the green leaves of the trees turn maple brown. The cold breeze of the upcoming winter is already felt. People are mostly busy cleaning the dry falling leaves.But in Floaroma City, that suppose to be the case. People are busy for another kind of reason.Colorful flags were placed around the city. Different kind of stall was constructed. People are getting busy displaying the product of Floaroma city.Early in the morning, the whole staff in the restaurant decided to have a day off together and walked around the city.“Wow, pretty.”Sasa said as she looks at a sheet of fabric displayed in the street. The fabric has different patterns on it and very pleasing to the eyes.“That’s right… I guess it is a festival season now.”“What sort of festival is it?”“It’s Floaroma’s dance festival. It started 250 years ago, and everyone dances however they please in the town square or the highlands. It’s about offering the fruits of the harvest to the earth god and praying for a
I gripped my sword tightly. Reinforcing the whole of my body with magic. I dashed forward and make the first slash. My sword clashes with the Demon king sword. After the first clash, it was immediately followed by the second and the third. In just a few moments our sword is already moving at terrifying speed.I always battle Akane with my sword. I know how swordsmen already swing their swords. I predicted the demon king's slash and intercepted them immediately. Unlike how Eriko battle me earlier. This battle is farther more extreme. Expected of the demon king.I already put revenge on the people killed by Eriko. Reflecting on myself. I was wondering…Why I’m still fighting?To me who don’t have anyone to protect anymore. Why I’m still fighting? I thought over and over again.I made the first strike but as the battle drags out. I’m looking toward Megumi’s face.Unlike me, Megumi has a future. She has a future with her child. Emiko needs a mother. Killing this person in front of me is l
“Let’s amuse each other until the end, my playmate!”Eriko dashed forward. She swings her red blood sword attacking me constantly.I manage to avoid all of the attacks because of the increase of speed of my new form.Focusing magical energy on my sword. I counter back slashed Eriko’s chest. My sword was covered with magical power and the strength I put on the sword was each to the magic I used. Resulting in a black spark that dealt incredible damage to Eriko’s soul.“Soul piercer!”“Managing to use soul piercer with a sword… You’re truly a talented one…”After successfully using a soul piercer with my sword. I get closer to Eriko and attack her continuously. When the soul piercer was successfully hit it the target. The target was stunned for few seconds.Within that seconds Eriko can’t move. I have to continuously attack her and destroy her soul.When I destroy her soul. That means she won't be reincarnated ever again. This evil will be erased forever in this world.To all of those pe
In the demon realm, the hunting and the hunted battle continues. Day and night monsters and demons continuously appeared right before my eyes.The divine race fear of the creator widens and want to kill me as fast as possible. But that is something I never wanted.I want to survive no matter what… I will go through this and destroy everything on my way.Katia beside me with her sword. She made a sword stance to prepare herself for combat.“Mayu they are coming!”I concentrated and beneath the ground. The monsters and demons emerge. Breaking the ground and causing destruction.“These monsters must be familiar. They are all programmed to hunt the creator's vessel.”“There are so many of them.”About a hundred monsters suddenly appeared. They are not just ordinary monsters. They are all S-rank monsters that can destroy an entire city if they wanted to.Not even a genesis bearer can handle such a number by myself. Especially that each monster has I’s own set of skills.Running won’t make
It’s been three months since Mayu left the restaurant. Leaving me with just her letter. I still feel fearful about what's going to happen to her.As usual, the restaurant was lively and has many customers. Sasa and Nana are steadily getting used to serving customers quickly. Megumi was now the chef when Akane was gone.Akane also feels bitter about what Mayu decided to do. Even still, I know that Akane feels anxious about Mayu. She is her closest friend after all.“Welcome to the red riding restaurant. Can I take your order?”“It’s the rumored cutie in the restaurant. It’s Maple.”“Your name was so cute just like your face.”“Can I take your orders now?”A normal day has come and I was forced to smile as I look toward the customers. Most of them are annoying always asking for my phone number and more.I’m exhausted. I thought and then goes inside the back of the restaurant.In the back of the restaurant was an alley. They are almost no one walking in this place. Looking bout the sky.
I have a dream… A very very long dream. A dream about me in the past. For a weird girl like me, childhood is rough. My family wasn’t as caring, but still, I’m grateful for the life they gave me.Without them, I would be unable to experience everything I’ve been through.Life comes in many flavors. Sometimes it's sweet, sometimes it's bitter. Sour days always come and there is a stale, tasteless day of boredom.Back in Japan I only care about myself. I never thought that I would need someone at my side. I always think that I can do everything on my own.I keep proving that everyone else around me was wrong. I accumulate money and live alone. It was fun being able to do anything without someone yelling at you. This freedom and loop of happiness. Being a slave to pleasure is for sure. If not made moderate, it will surely destroy someone’s life.Where am I again? I see, I’m back in my house again.Waking up early in the morning, there as I wake up Marie and Shuri playing with Shirone and
