Mira was in disguise.
　She wore a knit hat to hide the bat feathers on her head and a mask to hide her fangs. Her contact lenses make her eyes look blue, which is very thorough.

'Good morning. I was wondering if I could meet you here.

　Oh, by the way, I remember yesterday they saw me snatching away from this place as well.
　If [Black Mage]'s Reme was walking around with vampires, there might be a strange rumor about him, so he's wearing a disguise that takes that into consideration? Wasn't it made yesterday because I found it by accident?
　Or is it so that Mr. Blitz and Kash don't suspect my work?
　Anyway, you even went so far as to disguise yourself to meet me.
　I'm sure we'll meet at work, but what do I have to do?
　But why is that?
　Her beautiful smile is a bit scary.
　Mila looks at Kash for a moment.

'....I didn't think you'd be with that pervert.

　I knew at once that it was Mr. Agares.

'No, sir!　It's not the same!　I mean, demon o........well, if you look at your attitude towards Mao-san, you'll know it's different!

　Since I can't call myself a demon king in front of the two of them, I manage to fool them.
　Mira-san, who has been staring at me for a while, suddenly huffed and laughed aloud.

It's just a joke. I believe you.

'That's good...'

　I'm really glad.

'Besides, if you get turned off on the wrong track, I'll definitely get you back on the right track.

　Mira-san puts her hand on her own chest as she says it.
　On the side that I'm thrilled, Kash's face was dyed with despair.......it looked like.
　He compares Mila's chest with his own and looks like it's the end of the world.
　Kash's smile was a relief, but it was clouded.
　Mila bends down in front of Kash.

'Good morning, little fruit vendor.'

It's not small, it's going to be big, maybe soon. And good morning.

　You can greet people well and Kash is a great guy.
　........What are you planning to do, Mila?

"That's a pretty good-looking woman, isn't she? You know Leme?

'Yes. Leme helped me before, and that's how we got together.

　When you say you saved him, do you mean that you joined the Demon King's Army?

Yeah, I can imagine.

I'm sure you do.

　Mr. Blitz kept his promise and didn't talk about yesterday, and Mira didn't say that she had seen it either.
　But they nodded sympathetically to each other.

'Was it you ... Kash-san today?　I wanted to talk to you about it.

Yeah.

　I said aloud.

'Excuse me, but I think you need the money.'　　

　.... no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

'Well, I just wanted to help your mother in any way I could.

　Kash answers in a confused manner. I'm sure he's been asked so many times by customers about his situation that he's learned to answer quickly.

It's great. By the way, how much do you think you can earn in a day in this shop?

　...Um, Mila?

The owner is also very kind. But, Mr. Kash, what if we could make more money in a safer way?

　I knew it.
　I don't know why, but it seems to be recruiting Kash to join the Demon King's army.
　But I don't think so. No matter how young she is, she's too young.
　Perhaps sensing my anxiety, Mira-san winked at me.
　She's beautiful, but I'm worried about Kash.

'I won't let you do anything dangerous. It's just that Reme's new job is quite hard, and it would be very helpful to have a hard-working, good friend of Reme's to help her out.

　...Well, I mean?
　Are we talking about not sending them out to defend the dungeon, but hiring them to help with the preparations and so on behind the scenes?
　That, if there's no danger, it doesn't sound like a bad deal.
　The income from selling fruit products is not stable and the profit would be negligible.　
　In fact, whenever I went there, I was heartbroken to see a huge surplus of merchandise.

'Young lady, are you the new party member at Leme?'

'Yes. So, Mr. Kash, if you're going to come to our house, this is how much you'll be paid.

What?　I mean, that much?

We'll be busy for a while, but once things settle down, we'll have plenty of time off.

Whew!

This is the best part of it, but we're recruiting a new assistant for you, Leme, exclusively.

I'm sorry, sir.

　Kash's despairing face had long since cleared up. Now he was simply astonished and excited.

''I don't know. I hope that you will discuss this with the owner and your family and consider it. If you have time, I can explain it to your family as well, if you'd like.'

　Kash seemed to be overwhelmed by the sudden offer.

'Hey, girl. Leme doesn't say anything, so you must be trustworthy. But I don't know you, and I don't know if a party of that caliber can afford to pay Kash that much money.

　Mr. Blitz is worried about Kash. He wondered if there was such a swell story.

'Your concern is justified. I hope this is a little rude, but I will explain that to you after Kash has made up his mind.　

Hmm. You want to work, I'll give you an explanation? Well, that's not for me to say. But what if you change your mind afterwards?

'I don't think it's going to change, but nothing in particular. What I want to make sure of here is intent.

　Mira's words were brief.
　I looked at Kash.
　Kash was looking at me.

It's not a problem for you, Leme... well, you know, you wouldn't want me to help you, would you?

　Kash said that, his face red with nervousness.

No way. I feel better when I see Kash. You're not just a nuisance, you'll do a better job than you normally do, I promise.

　I had reflexively replied.
　Of course, it's a true and honest statement, but even so, I'm not sure if it's right to include a baby girl in the Demon King's Army, even if it's behind the scenes.
　It's just that Mr. Blitz is a good person, but he doesn't make enough money here.
　If Kash's current situation improves with my new job, that's something to be happy about.
　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.
　Kash gently meditates. A lot of things are probably running through his brain.
　Eventually, Kash opened his eyes.

''Tencho.''

Yeah.

I'm very grateful to him.

Oh.

But I want to help you, Leme.

Yeah, it's good, right?　You can graduate from earning pennies, so there's no reason to stop. And since it's at Leme's, you don't have to worry about it.

"....!　Yes, yes!

　Kash nodded his head with his moist eyes.
　Mr. Blitz also held his eyes and sipped his nose.
　From then on, it didn't take long.
　I accompanied Kash to her mother's workplace and explained the situation. I told her that I'm only treating her as a part-time worker, that I won't be going out as a demon to defend the dungeon, and that I'll make sure that she doesn't get into any danger, and so on.
　Kash was not disappointed when I told him that I had switched from being an adventurer to a demon. He even said happily, "Sanbo, that's a big deal!
　When Kash's mother asked me to take care of her daughter, I said yes.
　It seems that Kash's family doesn't have a father, and they are a family of five with an older sister and a younger sibling.
　
　But Kash's mother stopped Kash when she heard the salary. Her concern for her daughter outweighed her concern for her daughter.
　It was Kash's own strong desire to finally allow her to do so.
　I was relieved that she seemed to have a good relationship with her mother.
　We waited outside the office as her mother asked for a little time alone with Kash.
　We were at work in a thrift store.

''Well Mila, where did you hear from yesterday?''

'Hello,'

　From the beginning, that's what.
　So you got the general idea of my relationship with Mr. Blitz and Kash.

"You had an interaction with me and Kash and you came to the Demon King's Castle just because Kash is a subhuman?

'Yes. I thought it would be good to have at least one acquaintance, Reme, too. Besides, he is the chief of staff, so he needs someone to help him. I'm very, very, very sorry, but I can't stay on as an assistant forever.

　Mila said, looking really sorry, while emphasizing the very

'Kash is just a kid,'

'But what you need, Leme, is an understanding person. You have a grasp of your own abilities, but you don't expect too much recognition from others. Mr. Kash is one of the few people who understands the strength of both your mind and your magic, isn't he?

I haven't received any compliments in ... a decade or so.

　Fenix is my best friend, but that doesn't mean we don't give each other goofy praise.
　In the end I had to believe in my own strength.
　Let's get used to being properly evaluated by the outside world, right?

''Then from now on, I and Kash-san will praise you. Reme is amazing. I can't stand it when amazing people hide it or don't get recognition. Leme-san is an amazing [Black Mage].

...Oh, thank you very much.

　I don't want that. I'm embarrassed.

You've done a great job. Well, well, well what a relief.

　He patted me on the head.

'Well that was too much of a joke. I'm sorry.

No, I'm fine.

　We blush at each other.
　Actually, it's not okay at all.
　It wasn't good that I was in a surprisingly not bad mood. You're not a child, being patted on the head makes you happy.

'd*mn it. Anyway, I decided that Reme needed an understanding person and assistant. Even though you can contract with the ring, the demons are basically under the direct control of the floor boss. So in order to get a companion, you have to get permission from the floor boss as well as the person himself. Even if I say something, it's all a lie, so please don't believe it. Reme-san, you're a pig you'll believe me more than your men, won't you?

　I'm sure you're not the only one.
　.........maybe he usually calls his subordinate a pig.
　As expected of the 【Vampire Queen】 Carmilla.
　You're really into the role, aren't you?
　But this isn't your workplace right now, so please be your usual gentle Mira-san.

''No matter what anyone says about Mira-san, I won't believe them on the spot, and I'll listen to Mira-san properly.

Well, that's good. Thank you very much.

　While we were talking about this, time passed and Kash came over.

'Sorry for the delay!

　Full of energy.

'Let's go then, Mr. Leme, Mr. Kash.

　And so the three of us head to work.
　To the Demon King's Castle.
