Chapter 1295

The restaurant specializing in seafood cuisine that Elise-san and I visited had a rather stylish atmosphere. The interior of the restaurant, which is mainly made of wood, is warm and has a very nice atmosphere.

The design of the chairs and tables is also very well thought out, and for a restaurant like this to actually be located in the neighborhood…… I thought I had become familiar with the stores in this area, but it seems like there are still many I didn’t know about.

[This place has quite a nice atmosphere, doesn’t it?]

[Indeed. Well, I praise you for your great choice.]

This place looks like an upscale restaurant, but when I looked at the menu…… Well, it isn’t too expensive, but the price of each and every dish is still substantial. Even a light meal costs more than 10,000 Japanese yen.

Well, the royal capital is far from the sea to begin with, so fresh seafood in itself is expensive.

[What are you gonna have, Elise-san?]

[Let’s see……. I think I’ll have an acqua pazza.]

[……That isn’t very expensive though?]

[Are you an idiot, Human-san? It’s obvious I was just saying all those things with the flow of conversation we had before. Putting aside if you can eat as much as you want, but if you can’t do that, it’s better to eat what you want to eat than minding about their cost.]

It’s an argument so sound that I was at a loss for words. I mean, I was prepared to spend a lot of money because the person I usually treat is a guy who eats endlessly…… but now that I think about it, I can’t imagine Elise-san eating that much with her stature.

Facing this situation made me realize again that there’s actually something wrong with someone who instantly converts what enters their body into magic power just so that they could eat endlessly.

[……Elise-san, what kind of dish is this scottato?]

[It’s a seared tuna dish…… In Human-san’s world, I think you call it tataki?]

[I see, it sounds delicious. I guess I’ll have this and a couple of other light snacks……]

After calling the waitress and telling her our order, I chatted with Elise-san until the food arrived.

[Are there any things I need to keep in mind when opening a stall?]

[Since it’s Human-san we’re talking about here, I think you should notify the important people like the Six Kings-sama first. It’s highly likely that they would come, so I think it would be better if you make sure they use Recognition Inhibition Magic. There are some among them who don’t usually use it, such as War King-sama and World King-sama after all……]

[I- I see, it’s true that they would cause a ruckus when they come.]

……I’m pretty sure at least Kuro will appear. There’s no way she wouldn’t hear about us making baby castellas and not come. She mentioned before how it was difficult for her to participate in festivals and other such occasions since it would be easy for people to discover her, but as long as she comes only to my store, I think she should be fine.

[Also, errr, wait a bit.]

[What’s this? A catalog of magic tools?]

[It should be on this page…… I think you better buy this magic tool. This is usually often used in Harmonic Symphony, a magic tool that prevents sound from leaking out of a specific radius. It will make it so that the conversation in your stall can’t be heard by those around you, making it harder for the Six Kings to be discovered.]

[……That is very informative. Elise-san, ummm…… If you have any other advice with matters related to big shots, please tell me.]

Elise-san’s advice was very informative, and I would say that the things she mentioned were what I needed the most right now. Those measures are absolutely necessary, and it would be really helpful to get advice on some of the things that are hard for me to notice on my own.

[Let’s see…… When it comes to Death King-sama, I think you should just give up on any plans. Panic happening with her arrival is inevitable, and if Death King-sama really came for your stall and wants the stuff in your stall, Human-san can bring it to her to the ceremony site.]

[Fumu, that’s certainly true. The ceremony site is a bit far from the location of my stall, but if I register the location in advance with my Teleportation Magic Tool……]

[If you’re going to register a location, you better register it some distance away, not exactly in the venue. The venue is full of important people, so there will be a barrier raised that inhibits Teleportation on the day of the ceremony.]

Just as Elise-san said, there’s unfortunately nothing I can do about Isis-san’s magic power of death. If people are sparse and we can maintain distance, just like that time back in the Six Kings Festival, but if not, just as Elise-san said, panic will be inevitable.

For the time being, I’ll ask Isis-san what she plans to do when I talk to her about how I’m going to open a stall.

[Also, I think you should properly settle on a time when you are going to take a break. I don’t think Human-san and the others in your group probably wouldn’t just open up your stall from morning to night all the time. Properly set up your scheduled breaks in rotation to do what you want, like visiting the other stalls in the surrounding area. However, there’s a possibility that the Six Kings could come at the time Human-san is taking a break. Since it’s obvious that they would come and look for Human-san, I think you should tell them in advance when you will not be there.]

[……Elise-san…… That’s amazing. I feel like my eyes are being enlightened to the truth.]

[……No, I think this is something you should have thought about beforehand. Human-san would sometimes underestimate the impact you can have…… Good grief, you can be somewhat a pain in the ass.]

[A- Ahaha…… I’m sorry.]

[I still have a few more to tell you, so listen carefully and better yet, you should take out a notepad.]

Although she said it dismissively, Elise-san still kindly gave me advice on quite a few different aspects after that.

Serious-senpai : [She’s really capable.]

? ? ? : [Well, she’s a true oni when it comes to being vigilant after all. Anyhow, she’s usually prepared for this and that, so she’s quite superb as a brain in this kind of situation. Well, if the other party isn’t Kaito-san, she will not be so accommodating and teach you so much, just brushing you off with a courteous smile…..]
