Reijou Wa Mattari Wo Goshomou Volume 1 Chapter 4 Part2

Thank you to SnowyAngel-san and Seiysan for this chap~

…..Then, the rumors of how the DemiMercSquad come by the shop in the afternoon spread like wildfire. If this goes on, on the days where they do not come, the afternoons would be as silent as the graveyard**. That would be somewhat troubling.

Implementing a takeout menu to cover up the sales would probably work out somehow. If it comes to so, it would also be better for me to add more varieties of cakes.

If in the end all else fails and the shop needs to close down, as a last resort, I can just live in the Spirit's Forest. Ever since I stopped being a n.o.ble, the spirit contracted to me invited me to live in the forest.

But I do not intent to close down the shop any soon, and will do all I can until the end, but if it comes to that time I thought of depending on the spirits.

“Good afternoon, beautiful Rhonysan”

Coming back to my senses, there was a fancy looking man standing in front of the door. His curly platinum blonde hair set in a fancy way. Lightly wearing a plain purple coat with white shirt and flower embroidered white vest underneath it. His name is Macway-san, the owner of a cafe in the neighboring city, Cedric.

He visited once soon after he heard rumors of how Cafe Mattari opened. Ever since, he had frequent the shop and I'm thankful for that but…

“Regarding the matter I discussed before, have you considered it? I really do want you to work at my shop.”

–Each and every time he comes by, that's all he asks and truthfully it is somewhat troubling.

“Welcome, Macway-san. Thank you but I will have to decline”

Putting up a smile to brush off his invite, I guided him to his seat. He then quickly approached me closer. The smell of the cologne on his body was so strong that I felt like sneezing. But doing that here would be rude, so I endured by holding my breath and keeping a smile up.

“What's wrong? A beautiful lady such as you working here alone is regrettable. Especially so when you have such talent and wise. Rhonysan, please think it over”

Macway-san took a hold of both my hands with his, and glared at me with a hot gaze.

“Umm, I really do not intent to”

“You really are hard to get. Oh yes, I heard that the DemiMercSquad comes to your shop”

“…”

I was astonished to how he suddenly changes the topic. He really is a ‘my pace' person. A type of person which I do not really handle well, but since he's a customer, I can't be picky. While making sure my smile does not break, I nodded and replied “yes they did”.

“That was dreadful. Were you hurt? I came here today to give you this. I thought you would need it.” As he said so, he took out a small box from within his pocket. As he did it forcibly and quick, I involuntarily accepted it. Prompted to open the box, its content was a Beast Ward Charm.

It was in the shape of a light brown crystal big enough to be held within my grasp. In the center point of it is a mark alike a keyhole.

“You can ward off the Demis just by pasting this in the building”

“….Thank you for your offer but, I do not have any need for this” I tried to return it back to him but he didn't accept my wishes.

“Please don't hold back. It may be a bit expensive for you but the price is nothing to me. Since if anything happens to you, I might stop breathing.”

….I'm not talking about the price though. And your cologne is the cause of my breathing difficulties right now.

“I'm not holding back on anything. I wished to welcome the members of the DemiMercSquad on my own accords”

“Aa, you truly are too kind. But the ones who trampled on your kindness is those mercenaries. Alright, before you get harmed I will paste this on myself”

Macway-san then took out the ward from the box.

At that moment, *Clang clang, the doorbell rang.

Looking towards the door from over Macway-san's shoulder, there stood a big black Demi. His mane as gallant as yesterday. Macway-san who looked back turned frozen stiff. On the other hand the jet black lion, Boss-san, didn't look at him at all. The direction of his amber eyes were gazing upon the ward in his hand. Boss-san then held out his black hand, taking it with his claw hidden beneath the puffy paw, and crushed the ward. It splendidly turned into pieces.

The ward only takes effect once it's pasted on a building, hence before its pasted on, it's just a mere crystal… but to think that it can be easily crushed by mere claws..

The strength of a Demi really is to be feared.

While I was still astonished, Boss-san had already sat on the same seat as yesterday.

Today, his uniform looked ruffled. The shirt underneath his coat was all unb.u.t.toned, and his jet black upper body can be see through it.

“Ughhh, stinky!” The one who said so and entered was the blue wolf, Chise-san. Followed by the white cheetah Ryuse-san and the green jackal Sensan, and the 3 suppressed their noses while heading to the same seat as yesterday.

“Gaaaa~ Hungryyy~” Said Chise-san, sitting deep in the sofa. Sensan sitting in front of Boss-san, facepalming*** his face on the table. Ryuse-san was laying down on the sofa, and looking closer, his fur was dirty with patches of red.

How should I say this.. They look battered.. And reeks of iron and explosives.. I wonder if they just came back from a harsh fight.

Involuntarily looking at him, Boss-san then growled.

“–Oi” Boss-san's eyes were looking behind me. Coming back to my senses and looking towards my back, I saw Macway-san's hand on the doork.n.o.b.

“d.a.m.n you, you walking away without ordering anything?” (Boss-san)

How sharp of him to know that he(Macway) didn't order. True that he came in like a customer but…

While I was impressed by Boss-san, I then heard a wavering voice from Macway-san.

“T-that… t-t-then.. a.. a latte..”

I wonder where did that overconfidence of his from before went. His face turned horribly pale and he was shivering badly.

“Understood”

I swiftly prepared the Latte and poured it into a lidded cup. This is the cup used within the shop. Since I will be implementing a takeout menu, it would be better for me to prepare the vessels for the drink as well.

Handing over the warm latte to Macway-san, “t-thank you. The change..is..fine” and left a silver coin and went away.
