　He is the owner of a divine plan.

　It is said that DeCarabia tried to deal with the hero who gave up on him, but he turned him away three times with his wits, and since then, he has not been touched.

"You mean the man who rebelled against DeCarabia?"

　Eve asks.

"No, not so much treason as desertion. He has given up the Lord.

"Well, he was a very narrow-minded demon king, wasn't he?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"He may be shaped like a star, but he's smaller than an asteroid.

　He then asked Kotaro what the man's name was.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't know his name. "I don't know his name, but I hear he is a man of great renown.

　There was such an anecdote.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I felt that I could somehow understand his true identity, but it would be dangerous to think too quickly.　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Anyway, I wanted to meet him once to find out what kind of person he was.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then it would be another small trip, and we would have to decide who would accompany us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kotaro Kazama seems to have some intelligence work to do, and he has declined to go with us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thank God.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If Kotaro had been a sick hero who wanted to accompany us, the chaos would have deepened.

　However, as I thought, Eve was looking at me intently.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She was not the first to come forward this time, perhaps because she regretted dragging us down in the battle with DeCarabia.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I have tried many times to comfort her and tell her that it was not Eve's fault, but her modesty seems to be holding her back for the time being.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was not good enough to take Eve with us every time and we needed someone to manage the internal affairs of the Castle of Decarabia.

　Ashtaroth Castle has Godreve, the chief of the dwarves, but there is no one at Castle DeKalabia.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The purpose of this trip was to find a hero to take charge of Castle DeKalabia.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I will ask her to be patient.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She was a "shun ......", but she was not a woman who would abandon her job as a maid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I start to prepare for my trip.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I pack a change of underwear, a shirt, and some portable food into my traveling bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Master, this is your change of clothes for the first day, this is for the second day, and this is your spare," she would explain in detail.

　She turned red when I told her that she was like a wife in the way she explained everything in detail.

　She turned red when I told her that she was like a wife in the way she explained the details of the food and other things to me.

　Jeanne took her place, eating dried meat,

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The maid's face was bright red. Did she have a cold?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She asked me if I had a cold.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It means that Eve is a girl too," I replied indirectly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I replied indirectly and explained to Jeanne.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You will be accompanied by Jeanne and Toshizo on this trip.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, that's unusual. It's unusual to have Hijikata with you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well..."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was relieved that he didn't say, "Why?　I was relieved that he did not say "Why?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I would have preferred to have only one companion, but Jeanne would have been sulking if I left her alone, and it would have been a big problem if I left her alone with him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So we decided to bring Hijikata Toshizo, too, but it would be better not to tell him that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There is no harm in offending this beautiful saint.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jeanne, who was completely oblivious to my deep thoughtfulness, said this to me while eating dried meat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"The maid is not coming this time. Does that mean I'm in charge of the food?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't like the idea that I have to cook because I'm a woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I like that idea. In France it was normal. I cook for my beloved husband.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, that's how it is in that world. Well, that's how it is in that world. ......Well, all right, then, is Jeanne good at cooking?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't know if I'm good at it, but I like it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't know if I'm good at it, but I like it.　I've never seen her cook.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's because in the castle of the Demon King, she had to eat three meals a day and take naps. When I was traveling, I used to make my own food."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, that's new news to me. Then will Jeanne cook lunch today?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm on it!　I'll take care of it! After you eat my cooking you won't want to have that maid with you anymore. I'm better than her on the battlefield, in the bedroom and in the kitchen!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He then went to the kitchens.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The kitchens of the castle were run by a small Orc man named Shiron.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was said to be the descendant of a great strategist who had once served the man who had been called "the greatest sorcerer in the demon king's army," but he had not inherited his talent and had become a cook.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I ask him if there is not much bacon and sausage when an orc is a cook, but he says I am mistaken.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But he says that's a misunderstanding.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Many people confuse orcs with pigs, but you can't put pigs and us together. Orcs are not pig monsters.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It seems to be a myth that orcs taste like pigs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You're being rude, sir!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Chiron shows me the bacon and sausages in the kitchen.

As you can see, even though the chef is an orc, we have plenty of pork. We have all the seasonings you need, so we can make anything you like.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hearing these words, Jeanne made Chiron step back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I don't need help with the pigs. I'll cook the demon king's food.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　She rolled up the sleeves of her dress.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　You have such beautiful white arms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't think she can handle a big pot with such slender arms, but she can wield a sword with such slender arms, so maybe she can handle a pot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With this in mind, I watch Jeanne as she cooks.
