Two figures approached from behind Kouryuu while making a mess out of this purple smoke pavilion.
Saurian was on guard for a moment, but he turned his head back in surprise the moment he realized their familiar presences.
“What do we got here? Just when I thought who you are, turn out it is elder brother and Karyou-chan.”
“That’s my line! Isn’t this a rare sight for second elder brother to drink in a corner of a bustling place?”
“Hey, why do you have to say it? Aren’t you the one always staying in a corner and have a drink wearing a sulky face all the time?”
Karyou sharpened her lips in anger at the words of the big man next to her — a man called “elder brother”.
They continued their conversation in an evenly and friendly atmosphere, but the female clerk who happened to be in this place was scared out of her wit. Anyone knew of these three’s ident.i.ty would have been trying to escape from this place as fast as possible.
They are all ancient powerful beings that called [Demon Kings].
“The Great Sage Devastates the Sea” – Saurian Demon King.
“The Great Sage Leaves the Heaven in Disarray” – Roc Demon King.
“The Great Sage Clears the Wind” – Macaque Spirit King.
Only the Macaque Spirit King adopted the name of [Shuten Douji] as his alias in the Far East, but that name is also of the most infamous Monster King in the Far East.
They were known as Demon Kings caused the once famous war even on Little Garden – “The Seven Sages War”, a hot story on countless regions even now.
Though they have settled as either [Floor Master] – beings that protect the order of the Little Garden or their coworkers now, but their anecdotes are existing as ever.
The female clerk spoke to Shuten Douji with a tense face.
“I knew both Saurian Demon King-sama and Roc Demon King-sama were invited to the Spirit Train, but I didn’t expect Shuten Douji-sama is also abroad. Did you partic.i.p.ate as a Host Master this time?”
“Yeah. I heard the Host Master of the second round or the third round of the Sovereignty War will be us of the Far East. We haven’t decide what sort of Game to hold yet, but…… we aren’t intent to let the partic.i.p.ators or the audiences to feel boring either.”
Shuten Douji gave out a surprisingly smooth answer.
The female clerk was taken back by surprise from Shuten Douji’s answer since she thought that was supposed to be a matter of confidentiality
However, Roc Demon King who was standing nearby, scowled Shuten Douji as blue veins appeared on her forehead.
“……Elder brother. This isn’t something we should speak to an outsider. It is a matter of confidentiality here.”
“Eh!?”
“Hah!?”
“You serious!??”
“Isn’t that as clear as morning, and why second brother is surprised too!? Don’t tell me you haven’t heard that from anyone!?”
Karyou, with even more blue veins on her forehead, yelled them.
Kouryuu averted his gaze and viewed the plan for the day after tomorrow. It appeared he finally remembered something.
Karyou-chan exhaustively dropped her shoulders and stared the female clerk with an annoyed face.
“……I hope you understood but don’t spill out a single word about everything that taken place here to others. Try that, and not only us but also your original master would lose her face as well.”
“I-I understood.”
The female clerk braced herself and corrected her body straight up.
The Sun Sovereignty War was the highest level Gift Game even on the Little Garden of the G.o.ds. A leak of information could end up her original master – Shiroyasha to lose her face.
That is what Roc Demon King meant with that glare…… However, she suddenly showed a puzzled face as if she remembered something.
“……Uh? That reminds me, weren’t your term as second elder brother’s a.s.sistant ended when you were appointed as the manager of southern branch of [Thousand Eyes]? Why are you here?”
“That…… that is,”
The female clerk’s face turned pale.
Saurian awkwardly pulled Roc Demon King away and muttered to her.
“To tell you, there is a story behind this…… The truth is she had to return to the east as her responsibility for losing almost every customer of the shop to [Six Scars]. That’s why she was temporarily transferred to this shop inside the “Spirit Train” along with me at the moment.”
“Now that’s something!”
Roc Demon King made a broad grin of her face, as if she was harboring some sort of dark feelings.
In a word, this female went from a clerk to a shop manager, and got “promoted” to a conductor.
Though the female conductor had prepared herself for being made into a mockery, however, her mouth turned into a “へ” shape as she endured that humiliation.
“I know how much of a disgrace I am, and also how I lack the ability to keep the goodwill of the Twin G.o.ddesses. So I am currently on way of securing the position of a talent within the [Six Scars] to abide my shame for the sake of training myself from scratch.”
“Fufu, now that is an admirable will. Sure, it is the height of humiliation to be pushed around by lower level Communities, but this is also the duty of those lost in social warfare. Try to learn as much as you could from the lower level Communities.”
“Korakora, aren’t you being mean here, Karyou?”
Though Roc Demon King was rebuked by Shuten Douji, she couldn’t stop from making a smile.
Kouryuu rested his elbow the table and put his chin in the hand, wearing a surprised smile.
In order to give a helping hand to this lonely female conductor-dono, Kouryuu narrated about the past where Karyou-chan had to suffer untold of defeats against lower level opponents just to finally reach to this day—
At that moment, the cheers from the audience engulfed the broadcasted Game.
