Licht: ...... It's a pretty fancy meal, but I don't think we should do anything.

I think we'll just get in the way if we help. ...... Let's just sit quietly.

　As guests, Richt and Dorothy were seated at a special table and could only watch as the food came out one after the other.
　On the other side of the table were Rosé's parents, making for a very awkward situation.

　Rosé, who was supposed to be on our side, was just smiling and did not seem to be helping us.
　While I was struggling to think of something to say to them, it was my parents who spoke to me first.

"Mr. Richt, it's ......, isn't it?

Yes, yes!

My name is Arius. This is my wife, Camilla.

It's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you!

　In contrast to the foolishness of the past, there was a noble vampire who reminded me of the difference in age.
　If I'm not careful, my body will kneel down on its own.
　In response to Camilla's bow, Richt bows his head, slamming it down on the table.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the following web site: .......

Yes, something like that. ......

I see. What about the daily life of Rose? ......?　I hope she's doing well.

Oh, father, ...... here we are.

　Arius' parental love.
　Worrying about his daughter's work was a very normal emotion.
　In order to answer the question, Richt remembered his daily rosé.

　And the answer came easily.

"Well, you know, .......

　But .
　Richt choked on his words.
　The fact is that in a dystopia, such a young lady is treated like a corporate animal.
　It's not something I can really answer.

　The important thing is that Rose - although she doesn't like it as a pretext, she was glancing at Richt.
　I guess she wanted me to tell her parents about her daily efforts.
　It was cute and easy to understand, but it was impossible to tell the whole story.

　Given the personalities of Arius and Camilla, I could foresee a future that would worry them, if not send them into a dystopia.
　How should he tell them?
　Richt's head was spinning more than it had in the past few days.

He said, "...... He's done everything from small jobs to big jobs without a hitch. He's always willing to take on any task, and everyone thanks him behind his back.

　Licht looks at the three of them.
　If they looked unhappy, he would have to think of something to say to follow up.
　I hadn't - but...

　But that doesn't seem to be necessary.

"Really, Rose is magnificent. ...... My mother is thrilled. ......

"I guess we didn't need to worry. It was worth it to raise her so strictly.

　I think it's sweet - I couldn't say that.

　Both Arius and Camilla were listening with expressions that seemed to chew on the growth of their daughter.
　There is not a single word of dissatisfaction in their expressions.
　It's not like they were lying, so the situation was pretty much settled.

"But, Rose. Why didn't you come back for a hundred years?　We were all worried about you, you know?

"...... Actually, I've been dead for a hundred years.

　I've been dead for a hundred years." The glass Camilla was holding fell with a clink.
　If you're not sure what you're looking for, you may want to check with your doctor.

I'm not sure what's going on here. ......?　I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure it's worth it.

"A hundred years ago. We were killed by something unknown and were sleeping in the depths of a dystopia. The one who resurrected us is this Richt-san.

　All eyes turned to Licht.
　Unsure of how to react, he bowed apologetically.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, but I'm not sure what you're talking about.　It's not humanly possible to revive a vampire.

You can do it, Richt-san. Not only did he revive me, he also revived the Demon Lord.

　Arius and Camilla stopped breathing.
　It's hard to believe, but I don't think my daughter would lie about something like that.
　There was no way she could treat Richt as a mere colleague.

　The debt of gratitude for saving my precious daughter is not something that can be easily repaid.

"...... Anyway. If it weren't for you, Roze would still be dead, right?

That's right, father.

This is a ...... disaster. ......

　Arius sipped his glass of wine to calm his mind.

　Anyone who hurts my daughter will be killed without mercy.
　So, on the other hand, what should I do with the person who saved my daughter?
　Arius has been puzzling over the existence of the Demon King since Aria.

(It's just like when I met the Demon Lord. As I recall, the Demon Lord wanted Rose as a companion. If you apply this to Richt-kun, he's already one of us. ...... Marriage?　No, it's too early for that.)



　But still, the answer is not there.
　In the first place, this problem is too difficult to be decided right now.
　It is a question that should be decided after much deliberation and consideration.

"...... Mr. Richt. I don't know what to say to thank you. I'd like some time to think about it, if you don't mind.

"Huh?　Yes, yes. Of course. ......

　I'm not sure what to say.
　Regardless of the content, I don't think I can refuse Arius' proposal.
　This is how heavy the pressure is.

"Well. Now that we've talked about this, let's eat. Please don't mind eating, both of you.

　With these words.
　With these words, the five of them began to eat.

　As they talked, the unexpected sides of Arius and Camilla came to light.
　Arius, in particular, had an easygoing personality that liked to joke around.
　He only seems to be serious when it comes to his daughter.

　With Rose's help, it didn't take long for them to get to know each other.

　By the end of the meal, neither Licht nor Dorothy had any sense of manners.
