Chapter 271 – Capturing Park Seo-Yeon – Part 1

“Don’t laugh…! I’m talking seriously.”

“Isn’t kissing part of the naughty thing?”

“…”

Lisa nodded.

“Okay. Let’s do that for now.”

“It’s not for now. It’s a guideline that will continue in the future.”

Is it really so?

“You seem to be laughing at me. You’ve got a more twisted personality than I thought.”

“Now do you understand?”

“…Now that we’re dating. Can I ask a question?”

Question?
Have you ever noticed hypnosis?

“Say it.”

“…Kiss.
It was the first time.”

“Huh?”

My mind went blank.

“…So. It was my first kiss.
Wasn’t my kiss strange? Unbeknownst to me, Decal’s tongue and mouth… I was sucking or licking…
It’s not a strange kiss… ?”

Okay.
This was Lisa’s first kiss.
I never expected to ask such a question.

“It wasn’t strange.
It was a lovely, sweet kiss.”

“It’s hard…? Is it a compliment?”

“It’s a compliment.”

“It’s a relief that Kolly kissed me. Please take good care of me, Decal.”

I took Lisa’s outstretched hand.

“By the way, you said you were waiting for me outside.
Did you have something to say?”

“It may be out of the blue. Don’t you want to eat a proper dish?”

“It’s really out of the blue.
Eating well-cooked food would increase the morale of the members, but now it is a luxury.
Is there any better way?”

“I think we can serve everyone with dishes made by talented chefs.
Can you give me a minute before talking about the operation?”

“Okay. I’ll go ahead and tell you.”

Lisa picked up her helmet and brushed off the dust.

“Are you going to tell everyone that you’re dating me?”

“Decal. You know it’s not the time to talk about idle things like that.”

“I think Oia is excited and talking.”

“…Ha.”

“I’m going first.”

“It’s the first time I’ve been so reluctant to see the faces of the members.”

After seeing off Lisa, I came to the eight-colored clam castle.
Ah. It smells delicious.

“Mr. Decal!”

Our pretty fairy approaches with a bright face.
Selene was there too.

“Master.”

“Both of you worked hard all night.”

“I have heard the importance of work.
I tried my hand at making lunch boxes.”

“How about Mr. Decal? Shall we prepare a course for the table?”

“No. I’ll just bring a lunch box and eat it.”

“Yes! Then please wait a little bit. I will finish the work.”

I’ll have to take a look
I was amazed at the extra-large lunchboxes stacked like stone Towers.
I glanced at the contents, and the colorful food was showing off like a work of art.
The meat percentage is quite high. It seems that each part was baked using a different recipe.

“It will be delicious.”

“Nutrition was also fully considered.”

“If I eat this, I can starve for three days.”

“No! Then.”

As Elin closed the lid of the lunch box, she said sternly.

“I’ll make it every day. Let me know if you need it.”

“It may be difficult to find if you go out, but
I’ll tell you when I get a chance.”

“Yes! I’m ready!”

I put the lunchbox in the locker.
Shall we go for delivery before it gets cold?

“I’ll eat well. Elin. Selene.”

“Please take care of yourself.”

“Goodbye Mr. Decal!”

After being sent off by Selene and Elin, they return to the old mansion.
It compares too much with the Eight Color Shell Castle.
I move to the dining room, being careful not to shove my feet into the burnt floor.

The restaurant in the old mansion was just empty.
I feel like I’ve taken away everything worthwhile.
Curtains and tablecloths did not withstand the passage of time and became rags.

“Decal!”

Herka hugged me.
The momentum was so good that I almost fell behind.

“It’s too late. How long have I waited!”

“Doing something.”

The scattered members gather one by one at a round table.
We gathered without fail.
Oia looked this way and waved her hand.

“Decal~! I heard you brought something delicious?”

“Look forward.”

Angel glanced at me and said.

“You look empty-handed.”

“I like anything. I don’t expect anything like taste, so let me eat it quickly!”

When Abbett shouted with the force of chewing up the desk, the older brother Marker sighed and said:

“Abbet. The hero said ‘talking about food’.
I never said that Decal would bring a bunch of food. Stay calm.”

“I’m sorry I betrayed your expectations, but I’ve packed a lot of food.”

“…What?”

Everyone’s eyes were on me.
I opened the storage box and took out a couple of oversized lunch boxes and placed them on the table.
The smell of spices drives people crazy. Oia opened her mouth and couldn’t close it.

“Hey, what is this all about?
It’s warm to the touch. Is this the dish you just made?”

“Okay.
It’s a bento made by a talented chef.”

“And!”

“This is amazing.”

Angel, who was watching, also said a word.

“Honestly, I wasn’t expecting a proper meal…
Does this make people look forward to the scent?”

Tonyus also quenches his appetite.
After taking out all the lunch boxes, I met Lisa’s eyes.

“Lisa. I want to serve this to everyone. Is it okay?”

“Hero!”

Oia held hands as if praying and looked at Lisa.

“Did you know I could dry it?
Let’s all eat together. This is the dish that Decal brought. Thank him.”

“Thank you. Decal!”

I thanked Elin and Selene from the bottom of my heart and sat down.

“I want to sit next to the decal!”

“Would you like me to ride you on your lap?”

He picks up Herka and holds her in her arms.

“You can’t underestimate decals for making me happy. I’ll allow you to sit me specially.”

“It’s an honor. Genius Archmage.”

“Hehe!”

Herka sat on top of me, waving his legs and rejoicing with his whole body.

“Decal. Can I open the lunchbox?”

“Yes. Listen quickly before it cools down.”

Everyone opens their lunch boxes and admires them.
I thought that the directing that I had seen in cooking comics the other day, where the food was revealed and glowed, was not an exaggeration.
It’s so dazzling.

“I’ll taste it.”

Oia is already putting food in her mouth.

“Gustation?”

“Usually when you eat food brought in from outside, the support team will taste it.
To find out if it’s poisonous.”

Neris explained.

“It’s poison…”

“Um-um. Jerk-jerk… Ah, don’t feel bad about it. Decal. It’s just a procedure.”

Angel tutted and clicked his tongue.

“Let’s just eat.
It looks like the support team is going to eat them all up.”

“It’s so delicious. I don’t think I’ll even know if I die while eating it.”

Amy too admired, covering her mouth with her hand.

“Really…
Her meat is gone from her mouth. The liver is just right… I’ve never eaten anything like this in the Saints.”

“It’s Selene’s skill, right?”

Herka roared and said.

“That’s right.”

Perhaps because of the nature of lunchbox dishes, there were many foods that were good to eat in one hand.
The meat wraps shining red like rubies are appetizing.
Is this steamed abalone? Use the chopsticks you brought with you to quickly empty the food.

“Decal.
How the hell did you bring something like this without getting cold?”

Tonyus said.

“I went to the hideout, put it in the storage box, and brought it back.”

“Hideout? Is it close from here? No, it can’t be.
Is it space magic?”

Space magic?
Is it different from dimensional magic? I thought it would be better to bury it in moderation here.

“It’s similar.”

“Awesome. I never imagined that I could have a meal like this in a small area.”

“It tastes great, Mr. Blam, doesn’t it?”

When Blam didn’t respond, Oia wondered and spoke again.

“Mr. Blam?”

“…Ah. Yes. It tastes good.”

Oia, she seems unaware of what Blam had her heart on the warrior.
No, judging from the reactions, most of them don’t seem to know.
At that time, the Medic of the support team, Amy, spoke.

“Anyone ask?
Decal. How did you get to know the warrior?”

“…”

Suddenly became quiet.

“Ah…
Can’t I ask… ?”

“No! I was curious too. Please tell me, warrior!”

Two medics from the back-up team look at me and Lisa with their eyes shining.
Lisa sighed and said.

“Be careful. Oia. Amy.
No matter how comfortable a seat is, you have to choose a topic.”

“Yes…”

Oia faintly replies.

“It’s delicious.
It feels like your body is warming up. I speak on behalf of all thanks. Decal.”

Lisa looked at me and smiled softly.
It was our castle’s cook and maid who worked hard, but to be honest, I was happy.

“If you’re grateful, let me take a neatly empty lunchbox with you.
Our chef will be very happy.”

Well, it looks like it’s already half empty.

“Coke! Coke!”

Abbett turned her head and coughed as if inhaling.

“You foolish bastard. Eat slowly. Who’s taking it away?”

Marker pats Abbett on the back.
Good brothers Even considering the fact that he was beaten with such force that his intestines shuddered.

“Kuhhh! Ugh! Hyung, he went down. He went down…!”

“If food gets stuck in your throat and you die before meeting the demon king, that would be a great story.
I will pass it on so that people can compose and sing it.”

“You can eat slowly. Nagging.”

Tonyus looked at the two and helped.

“If you make it into a song, please let me compose the tune.
Alas, Abbett! Brave warrior. Even if the meat didn’t get caught in his throat and he died!”

Haha. Shouldn’t you have brought something to drink?
I wish there were at least as many disposable paper cups as there are people.

“Herka. Do you have a cup in your storage?”

“Cup? Yes!”

“Would you like to share it with everyone?”

Herka took the cup out of the locker and set it down in front of everyone, manipulating it as if using telekinesis.
They were cute mugs, each with a different color and pattern.
I took out the goddess’ water bottle and poured water into Neris’s and me’s glasses first, and left the rest to Herka.

“It’s a small-looking water bottle, but there are tons of them.”

Tonyus said curiously.

“It’s an artifact. It comes out more than you see.”

Although it comes out not a lot, but infinitely.
I don’t know what the inside is like.
It’s just nice that there is always clean water. Even if someone drank it before.
Since it was originally such an item, it can be said that there is no room for impurities to mix.

“Oh, I’m so happy.”

Oia cupped her cheeks with her hands and smiled bashfully.
Everyone seems satisfied.
I liked the veal with thick white sauce the best. The cooked carrots also went well with the sauce, which was great.

“Thank you, lord.”

After Neris finished her meal, she opened her mouth.

“I really enjoyed the meal.”

“Tell Elin and Selene. They will be delighted.”

“Yes.”

After the meal, everyone worked together to clear the table.
I put the empty lunchbox in the storage box, put it away, and sat down again.

“Listen to the report in order, starting with the support team. Bacchus.”

Bacchus was the support team perimeter.

“Yes. At night, I couldn’t see any movement of the monster.”

“Didn’t you see?”

“The village itself seems to be reluctant.”

“Bruno. The results of the investigation?”

Bruno got up and said.

“I’m not sure, but it seems to be a flying monster.”

“Is it a blood harpy?”

“I couldn’t identify it in detail. But judging by its size, it was something about the size of a man.”

“…Is it possible that he is a half-drinker?”

“…It’s pretty big.”

Seoyeon is watching us?
What do you mean?

“Are you waiting for us? Decal. What do you think?”

“Looks like they’re waiting for us to come out.
Now that we figured out Seoyeon’s location, it went well. I’ll go with Neris.”

“No. We all move together.
Decal, I can’t put you in danger.”

“…”

Oia squealed and shrieked.
When Lisa glared at her, she immediately withered away.

“Sorry…”

“If you do it one more time, I will punish you.”

“Huh…”

“Won’t they run away if they all come to us? It’ll be difficult if Seoyeon doesn’t bite the bait in the first place.”

The moment Seo-yeon comes into range, Lisa can simply kill her.
That’s the problem.
I did not give up on Park Seo-yeon. If necessary, she was willing to join Seo-yeon alone and grant her wishes.
But Lisa seemed unwilling to agree to an operation that put me at risk.
Of course, I was happy if it made me happy, but I didn’t hate it.

Eventually, the story comes back to the beginning.
How do you subdue the flying Seoyeon?
Lisa said confidently.

“Decal. Trust us.
If things like this were enough to block it, subjugating the demon lord sounds like a dream.”

“Do you have any good ideas?”

“Tonius. Herka. How did it go?”

“We’ve prepared the means. It’s less stable, but you can tie it up in about 5 seconds.”

“That’s enough.”

Didn’t I say 5 seconds?
Enough… ?

“Support team. Create a space to trap the half-demon.
The guerrillas will begin the anti-demonic capture operation from now on.”
