Chapter 853: Meeting the Six Kings Executives - Ten Demons Arc ③ (2/2)

[And finally, the tenth in line in the pecking order is ”Tiamat”. A sh*tty snake. It's possible that I might bury her in the ground within a few seconds of Miyama-sama meeting her, so you also don't need to remember her that much.]

[……I- Is that so.]

I see…… Greeting in the pecking order means that the two most problematic people in their group will also be the last one I would have to greet…… I may have to brace myself when meeting them.

[……For the time being, we're going to see Gluttony-san first, right?]

[Yes, we will. As long as Miyama-sama wills it, we can meet them now.]

[Ahh, then, I don't have any plans today, so can I ask you that?]

[Understood.]

It was a sudden turn of events, but I had originally prepared for it, and as long as the other party is available to meet, the sooner I could meet them, the better.

As I stood up from the sofa I was sitting on to simply get ready, Pandora spoke.

[……Gluttony is a decent person, so there's no problem with meeting her, but there's one thing I'd like you to take note of.]

[What is it?]

[Well, even if Gluttony offered you something to eat or brewed you tea…… ”I recommend that you don't consume it”.]

[……Eh?]

[Ahh~~ Gluttony's sense of taste is rather off. They're an eccentric eater, or rather, they like to eat things that most people would say taste bad. They really seem to think it tastes good though, so they might serve you a tea with a poisonous hue as a welcome, so be careful.]

When I tilted my head at the unexpected words that were mysteriously spoken, Alice added more explanations to Pandora-san's words.

That means…… The person themselves doesn't have any ill intentions, and just had a bad palate…… Hmmm, but if it was actually served to me, I feel like I might not have a problem eating it.

As long as it just tastes bad and isn't poisoned or anything like that, it should be alright…… At any rate, I'm trained by Kuro's everyday baby castellas, so as long as it wasn't on the level that would make me pass out or anything like that, I don't think there's any need for me to go out of my way to disrespect their hospitality.

Well, that's only if they serve me something……

<Afterword>

※ I added the reason why Illness wouldn't meet Kaito in the Afterword of the previous chapter.

? ? ? : [Come to think of it, that was the case, wasn't it? Kaito-san did eat one of Kuro-san's worst baby castellas that even dealt fixed damage to me……]

Serious-senpai : [It seems like he had really trained his stomach.]
