I woke up early in the morning, happily baking some treats for the children in the orphanage. I planned to sleep as much as I wanted, but my body woke early in the morning somewhat excited about the day. In short, I’m in an incredibly good mood.I put the tray in the oven with the cookie dough. Looked at my creation with satisfaction.I opened the window of my house. Outside were my two cats, familiar playing with each other, Shirone and Kurone.Seeing them in the giant form playing around kinda scared me. The possibility that they’ll accidentally crush my house is very high.I transformed them into their little form. They didn’t even notice and continued playing.While I waited for the cookies to be ready, I sat down on the couch I placed on my balcony. I took a sip of the coffee in my hand. Afterward, I lifted my eyes to the blue sky. Shifting my vision, I could see birds playing with each other and the colorful flowers around my house.Back on Earth, I never appreciated what is aro
After receiving the letter from Shia I go ahead to the adventurers guild. Shia had the same sad face when I left her. Unable leave her without seeing her smile. I make sure that Shirone and Kurone will play with her for today.Lifting my head high up.I guess, there would be no danger in the city. I have no reason to you Shirone and Kurone.While I’m on my way to the guild, I remember Marie’s worried face. Like Shia, she seems to be against the idea of me going on a dungeon quest. I can understand their worries, but I have to do my responsibility as a high-rank adventurer.I reached the adventurer guild and go straight to the receptionist, Ellena.“Miss Nicole… Did you receive the letter?”“Yup.”I replied waving the letter and walking closer to her.“... This is my first-time dungeon exploring. I’m quite nervous.”“That was surprising to hear from the girl who solo defeat a black viper and black tiger on her own. After those achievements, you are ranked among the aces of the kingdom.
I gulped my saliva while she continue to stare at me for the time being. The staring was brief but to me, it feels so long. My body is trembling and I can’t say anything. She could be an assassin after all. This is the first time I face real fear in this world. Next time I will make an oath that I won’t take off my combat cat maid outfit when going out.She closed her eyes briefly and have her eyes on me again.“I apologize… Some people share the same name. You must be one of those people. The Nicole I was looking for was a girl who was said to be a weirdo who loves wearing a cat-maid outfit.”She muttered.Is that what everyone thinks about me? Kids do like me. Is it because they think that I’m some kind of mascot? That’s a possibility.“... I got the wrong person I nearly have you killed. I apologize for causing you some trouble. Please don’t hate me.She bowed her head and not long after she leave without a trace.Just who is that woman?! She seems to be a woman in her mid-twenties
As promised she arrived early in the morning. She is in full gear and ready to kick some butt. Meanwhile, I was fully equipped with my cat-maid outfit. She had her glanced at me with confusion.“Using my appraisal seems like your status number increased drastically with your cat maid suit equipped. What is with that outfit anyway?”“Well, this is a gift given by what we call god. I'm not sure though.”I replied.“Hmm, It's live my mother's seven-star sword.”Seven-star sword… What did she mean by that? Anyway, her name sure was strange. I know that she is from the country where I came from.“Big sister Nicole… Are you sure about this?”“It’s fine… Don’t think too much about it Marie… This weirdo just wants to fight with me. We don’t have any intention of killing each other.”I said.“That’s right little miss… I just want to know if the combat cat maid is truly strong.”“Before we start let's have some rules implemented.”“You’re right, the one who first gives up or knockout would be d
“You wanted to come along with me?”I said looking to Shia looking very serious.“While in the academy… I’m always thinking about a way to improve myself. I was told to be a genius, but my defeat with you is unforgettable. I keep on thinking and thinking about what am I lacking. Then, I found out that I don’t have actual battle experience. That’s why I want to be with you in the seafloor city dungeon.”Shia said.The four of us are all seating at the dinner table enjoying pizza. Having junk food early in the morning must be bad. I guess that would make me a bad influence on these girls.With that said… That means that is the reason why Shia come to visit my place. But I have some concerns.“Seafloor city is one of the said hardest dungeons. I think you shouldn't be going. You’re royalty and your life is far more important than mine. I can’t let a royalty place herself in danger.”I said.“That’s true.”Shia lowered her head.Noa stood up from her seat and come to hug me.“That’s not t
On the day I left Crimonia together with my two party member. First dropped by Marie’s house to say goodbye. From there, we headed to the feudal lord’s house to meet with Shia.While we are walking back to my house.“Now you're looking like a proper servant… Your clothe in not for a show anymore.”Shia teased.“It's not that I want to wear these clothes every day.”I replied.Shia and Ran giggled.I do think that these clothes looks cute when I first chose this from the gift selection. I always think is embarrassing, but I want to try it because cute at the same time. Just like those maid cafes back in my land.Being next to noble Shia. Anyone would think that I was her servant. Well, I don’t mind at all. Thinking for myself is what I’m always good at. But recently, something had changed inside of me. Helping lots of people and making everyone smile.I’m supposed to be foreign to such feelings, but this would give me warmth that I don’t expect to feel.“I don’t question it before, but
Upon arriving in the capital city outskirts, we met a weirdo who was self-proclaiming to be me. I know I’ve become popular recently. For sure, many likes idolized me. But for some reason. This one is going into my nerves.Combat cat maid my ass.The woman pretending to me is a woman that seems to be in her thirties. Her round fatty body is giving trouble to the ribbon and button of the cat maid outfit. Also, what is that pose? I’m not doing any of that.My plan was to become a low-profile girl and live my life in peace. When did I go wrong? Because of my helpful heart, I’ve become this popular.“Can you stop pretending to be me? I mean, I get t that you are one of my fans. So please…”“What are you talking about? I’m the genuine Combat cat maid. I’m the cat maid that kills the black viper and black tiger… And my next quest is to defeat the black dragon.”She shot back with confidence.Do all boss monsters in this world have “black” at the beginning of their names? I didn’t notice unti
Months before the re-opening of the restaurant run by Akane. Two demons wander around the area. The two demons are named Glacier and Flarie. They are the demons defeated by Mayu not long time ago.But they hold a much deeper secret because their real name is not Glacier and Flarie at all. Those just code names when they are in their demon form because it’s cool to have one. Their real name is Sasa and Nana. They are both half-demon breed. Their true nature is a form of cute children. Looks very identical except for their hair color. Sasa has light blue hair meanwhile Nana has peach hair.They go to Floaroma town with one mission in mind.“At last we’re here Sasa… We will definitely defeat that little elf girl!”“Is it really okay to do that? I mean she freed us from the King. We should be thanking her instead. Without her, we’re still there acting as demon pawns.”“Y-You’re right about that, but still… That elf defeats me. I hate losing. I hate it! That’s why I will battle her and sho
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
