As I ran back to the mansion, I kept calling Marie over the phone, but there was no response.I was practically sprinting at this point and soon reached the mansion.Where was Marie?!I saw the guards posted by the gates like usual, and they were really surprised to see me appear so suddenly."Where’s Misa?!""Misana-sama?!"The guards didn’t understand what I was asking them.Had nothing happened here?However, if that was the case, where were the girls?They had gone to check Misa’s flower bed together.I thought about questioning the guards further but realized it would be quicker to just look for the girls myself, so I ignored them and jumped up all the way onto the roof.After looking around for a bit, I spotted the flower beds on the left side of the mansion."Marie!"I jumped down from the roof and landed next to the flowerbeds, which held many beautiful, blooming flowers.Only then did I notice that Marie and Noa were collapsed on the ground right next to one of the flowerbeds
As I swung my arm back to take my anger out on the toad man, Eleanora appeared at the entrance."Nicole, wait!"Just because she told me to wait didn’t mean I was going to stop."Ugh!"I sunk a Cat Punch into the toad man’s stomach."I was too late."No, she made it in time. Because she had suddenly cried out to me, I only used half the usual strength.As proof, the toad man didn’t fly off after getting hit. His internal organs didn’t burst out, either. Instead, he just passed out on the spot, foaming at the mouth."Eleanora ? Why are you here?""I was on my way back from the Commerce Guild and saw you riding Kurone with a crazed look on your face, so I decided to run after you. There was no way I could not follow you after seeing you in such a state."A crazed look? Had I really been making such a scary face?I thought about it for a second. Yup, I probably had been.The girls had just gotten attacked, so it would have been more strange for me not to look mad."Please don’t make the
When we asked the toad man where the other children were being held, he just told us to look for them ourselves.Eleanora was mad that he refused to cooperate, but we had plenty of ways to look for them.I could use detection magic or have Kurone and Shirone sniff them out. Just as I was about to tell that to Eleanora , a short-haired maid in her early twenties raised her hand."I know where the children are.""Ruufa!"The toad man scowled at the maid, but Eleanora just doused him with some more water to make him shut up."You know where they are being held?""Yes, because I prepare their meals for them.""Ruufa, you know what will happen if you betray me, don’t you?""Please, stop making your crime worse. I will properly atone for mine.""Don’t you dare. Who do you think is paying off your parents’ debt after they ran off and left you with it?""You, Gerardo-sama…""What do you think you are doing, then?!"As the toad man cried out, Eleanora summoned a big tide of water and completel
"We need a horse carriage, so go and prepare one!"When we brought the children back above ground and to the entrance of the mansion, we saw Cliff giving orders."You Finally came back, huh."Cliff came over once he noticed us. He looked a bit fatigued.I helped the two boys off of Shirone and asked Misa to watch over them."Cliff, you’re here.""Yes, I arrived not too long ago."Cliff answered Eleanora then moved his gaze to Misa and eventually to me."Nicole, thank you for saving Misana. This will be a great relief to the Faren Gramm family.""How is Noa doing?"Marie had woken up before I ran off while Noa hadn’t yet regained consciousness."She’s fine. She woke up right after you took off."Thank god, Noa was fine, too.If she wasn’t, I might have decided to rampage a bit more.With this, I now had one less thing to worry about."That reminds me, did Gran not come along?"Eleanora and I looked around but did not see Gran .We figured that since his granddaughter had been kidnapped
"Nicole, I’m sorry, but could you please not walk around town in your Cat maid outfit for a while?"He was basically telling me not to walk outside anymore; I wouldn’t feel safe going outside without my Cat maid outfit on."Nobody will know it’s you if you just wear a different outfit."That wasn’t the problem; my life would be in danger if I left my Cat maid outfit at home.There was no guarantee that someone wouldn’t try to pick a fight with me on the streets.I also wouldn’t be able to protect the girls without it. If something bad happened, I would just be a sitting duck.I knew that there was no point in arguing, though, as Gran had no idea why I had to wear my Cat maid outfit all the time.There was nothing I could do… I really didn’t want to trouble Gran more since he was busy dealing with the toad man’s family."Okay, I’ll just stay holed up in my room until it’s time to return to Crimonia, then.""Nicole, you plan on staying in your room until you leave?"He shouldn’t underes
Today was the day we would hold the “Play with Cat s” event. It was named by Noa, of course, after she decided a name was absolutely necessary if we were to hold an event, and we just went with it since it didn’t sound too strange.We would do it at the center of the town plaza. I had been a bit worried about hosting it at a public space, but thanks to Gran ’s permission, we were allowed to use the central area.I summoned the Cats at Gran ’s mansion, and we headed out, Marie and I riding on Kurone while Noa and Misa rode on Shirone.As for their costumes, the girls were wearing my shop’s Cat-themed uniforms."Nicole, don’t you have any Cat uniforms?"Noa asked me out of the blue the day prior."A uniform? Why do you ask?""If you do, let’s all dress up as Cat s.""Big Sis Noire, what’s a Cat uniform?"Misa didn’t know about my shop’s uniforms, so Noa, of course, proceeded to explain her everything about my shop in full details."Such a shop exists?! I want to go there too!"Misa list
After a few leisurely days, the inspector Finally arrived from the capital and released Cliff from his work. Eleanora and Gran now formally took over to resolve the issue, meaning today was the day we could Finally head back to Crimonia."Noa, listen to Cliff properly, okay? I will be coming home as soon as I get my next vacation."A few people had gathered to send us off, with Eleanora in front, making sure to say goodbye to her daughter."Okay. Mother, please tell Big Sister Shia I said hi."Eleanora would be departing back to the capital tomorrow, and Gran intended to join her, too. They were going to take the toad man and his son along with them, of course, as well as the black-clothed man. At the capital, they would Finally be officially judged by the king.A few of the servants working for the toad man would also be brought along while the rest of them would be sentenced by the town instead.Their sentences would surely vary depending on who would be making the judgment, but I w
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
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.
