The next day,
10:00 AM.
At the dining room.
Utaha gloomily cut the steak on her plate.
On the other side,
Kisara wasn't any better.
After getting sniped twice, no one could handle that.
"Well, you two have to give the newcomers a chance, don't you?"
Irisviel rested her chin on her hand and smiled. "There probably won't be many newcomers in this world for a while. You can relax a bit."
As soon as she said this,
Kisara and Utaha's eyes lit up. They glared fiercely at each other.
Next time,
They would settle it.
"Wait, this servant is also a newcomer. Don't forget about this servant!"
Enju put her hands on her hips and said loudly, "Do not underestimate me! This servant is Master's one true love!"
Stare… xN
Irisviel and the others glanced at her and immediately looked away.
Pfft!
Enju felt an arrow pierce her heart.
So mad.
Her chest hurt.
Being young was a real disadvantage.
She really hoped that her master's moral standards not be so high.
…
Totsuki Academy!
Supernatural Cuisine Service Club.
"Erina, this is my club application."
Kobayashi Rindou handed the completed form to Erina.
"Okay."
Erina signed it immediately and said excitedly, "From now on, you are the third member of our club."
She looked Rindou over and nodded to herself.
'She is definitely a beautiful girl.'
'Master would be satisfied.'
Recently, she had heard that the Supernatural Service Club had been having success, so she was feeling a lot of pressure.
"Hey hey!"
Rindou squatted directly on the table. Her blood-red bangs covered her left eye. She said with fervor, "Now, can you tell me the secret of your cooking?"
"That flavor... it's definitely not from any cooking technique. What kind of ingredients did you use?"
Her thighs trembled slightly.
Just thinking about the taste of those ingredients made her lose control.
"..."
Her gaze drifted down. Erina's eyelids twitched.
'This woman... Master would probably really like her.'
'But,'
'Was I inviting a wolf into the house?'
"Sigh!"
Taking a breath, Erina said, "Rindou-senpai, do you know about supernatural ingredients?"
"Huh?"
Rindou was stunned. "Like what?"
"Like dragons, pegasus... things like that."
"You're not going to tell me your ingredients are those things, are you?"
Rindou quietly got off the table, her gaze somewhat uncertain.
As the former second seat of the Totsuki Elite Ten, her specialty was cooking rare ingredients.
What supernatural ingredients? She had never even heard of them.
'But the taste of those ingredients... could it be real?'
Thinking this, her eyes grew brighter and brighter.
'If that were the case...'
'Would a brand new culinary world appear before me?'
"Although they're not dragons or pegasus, they're close."
Erina spoke. "But you need to think carefully."
"If you really want to enter this world, you must be prepared to dedicate your body and even your soul."
'That sounded a bit ominous, didn't it?'
'But,'
'The door to a new world was right before me. How could I give up?'
As her gaze became determined, she said, "Tell me."
Hearing this, Erina didn't hesitate and slowly explained.
A moment later…
"I see."
Rindou showed a look of understanding.
'So Devils really existed.'
'And Erina is already their servant.'
She quickly accepted this fact.
After all,
The taste of those ingredients couldn't be faked.
And for her to knock on that door, she had to walk the same path.
She had no objection to this.
Compared to becoming a Devil's possession...
Those ingredients were her true pursuit.
Even, from then on, she probably couldn't be satisfied by ordinary ingredients.
"Hey hey, when can I become a Devil?"
She propped her hands on the table, red light seeming to flicker in her eyes.
Erina: "..."
'This woman... accepted it so quickly.'
'Had I... really made a mistake?'
…
Black Bullet World!
Noon that day!
Seitenshi groggily rubbed her eyes. Her tail unconsciously lifted.
"Awake?"
Ayato grabbed the tail and began to squeeze.
"Mmnn..."
Seitenshi was fully awake.
"M-master... my tail..."
"Oh, and wings too, right?"
Ayato smiled. With his other hand, he pulled, and a pair of Devil's wings extended from behind Seitenshi.
"As a Devil, the tail and wings are important parts. They need to be stretched from time to time, understand?"
"Yes, I... understand, M-master."
Evening,
Living room.
Irisviel and the others sat in chairs, all shifting uncomfortably.
Utaha murmured, "What kind of monsters are these newcomers?"
'From evening to dusk...'
'Were they all this strong?'
Medusa brought over the food. "Alright, stop overthinking. Eat dinner first."
Watching her unnatural posture, Utaha raised an eyebrow, 'Someone was saying one thing and meaning another.'
Getting taken by newcomers one after another...
For several days in a row...
They seniors have suffered terribly.
Finally, two more hours passed.
Ayato and Seitenshi walked out of the elevator.
"He... hello, everyone."
Looking at the group, Seitenshi greeted softly.
'They... all knew, didn't they?'
'So... so embarrassing.'
After a brief reply, Utaha immediately went up and threw her arms around Ayato's arm.
"Master, I bought new clothes."
Ayato looked down. Utaha immediately shifted her outer garment.
'Oh!'
'A new model maid outfit.'
'It really gives a heart-stopping feeling.'
Kisara was stunned for a moment. Casually, she took off her jacket and naturally brought out the food she had prepared earlier.
"Master, have dinner."
"..." xN
The corner of Artoria and the others' mouths twitched.
'Wow!'
'Did they have to start the war this quickly?'
'Didn't that make us look really foolish?'
