Despite the trouble, the date continues without any problems, as the person they are with is almost always the strongest.

'Look at you, Kite!　I sell a condiment that was popularized from playing a brave man.
"...mayonnaise?　Heh, this stuff gets passed on.
This might be a good time to try a new flavor!
Just don't put it in a baby sponge cake.
What?
No, what?　Not.....

　You can look around the market where the groceries are sold and....

Wow, there are so many different colored flowers for sale. This kind of thing makes me feel like I'm in another world.
"Oh, Kite. Be careful with that flower 'biting'.
Why?　I mean, say that first!
Ha-ha, sorry. But your flowers are delicious.
Well no, no, I don't know what all that means.

　I've been bitten by strange colored flowers in a flower shop and...

Which one do you think looks better on you, Kite?
''Hmmm. Black's normal clothes are black, and a silver necklace would be better, wouldn't it?
I see, but this one's short. It might run out of steam if it goes into hexenbiest mode.
...What's Hexenbiest mode?
'You mean when he took on the form of a magical beast. It's roughly the size of Acht.
I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about.

　Wind shopping at a decorator's shop or .....

Kite, I got some spit-roasts. Come eat with me.
'Oh, thank you ... yes, it's good, but it's an oddly textured meat. What kind of meat is this?
"This is the meat of the 'Tyrant Worm,' isn't it?
Buh?

　You'll be surprised by the ingredients of other worlds and...

What book are you buying?
'Hmmm. Preferably one that I can read in my free time, but what would be good?
Well, how about this?　It's a book that's been adapted in a narrative style from the story of the first brave men.
'Wow, the story of the first hero, sounds interesting. I know the original brave man was an awesome person, but what was he like?
Yeah?　Kite, you've 'met' him before, right?
...What?

　There's a shocking new revelation in the bookstore and...

Mr. Chrome, excuse me for interrupting your session.
'Whoa!　Oh, Mr. Ayn!　When did you....
What's going on?
There's a message from the palace at Hummingbird, asking for a face-to-face meeting to thank you for your recent defeat of the wyvern.
Well I'm on a date.
Yes, sir. I'm going to give you a bloodbath.
Nice to meet you.
No, no, no, no, no!　Mr. Ain, stop, Sto-O-P!

　Just when you think the threat of the wyvern is gone, a further threat (a maid) is about to attack the royal palace...

　It was such a hurried but fun time, and the time passed by in the blink of an eye.
















'We had a lot of fun - that was fun!
'Yeah. I feel like some crazy stuff happened in places, but it was definitely fun.

　Sitting side by side with Kuro in the fountain plaza at dusk, we exchanged words as if we were soaking up the afterglow of the day.
　The time has flown by so quickly. When was the last time we spent a day this noisy yet happy?

Black thank you so much for your time today.
Yeah?　I had a great time too. Let's go out together again!

　Black looks at me with a big smile on his face and I thank him with a smile, too.
　Today was really fun, and I got to know a lot of things I didn't know before.
　But at the same time, I was reminded of the fact that since I came to this world, Black has always given me things, and she's always taken care of me.
　At the same time, I realized that I didn't know Kuro at all.

　It's like Kuro knows everything about me, but I only know a small part of how great he is as the Dark Lord.
　Until now, I was okay with that. She's on a completely different level from me, and it's only natural that I don't understand...
　But spending time with Kuro today made me want to get to know him better. I felt like I didn't just want to take it, I wanted to give something in return.

There's still a lot of time, there's no need to rush.
Yeah.

　........I guess you know what I'm thinking.

　We've only been in this world for a little over two weeks, and I don't think we've spent much time together yet.
　That's not a theory, it doesn't matter how much time we've had ... I thought that was only in the story.
　-- I'll admit it.
　Before I knew it, that feeling was born in my mind so naturally that I didn't even realize it was there.

　I'm attracted to this innocent, cheerful, uninhibited, gentle, substandard demon race - I'm attracted to it...
　I think Kuro is a powerful opponent. I'm sure you'll be able to find out what's going on in the world.
　You could call it a reckless challenge in a way, but like Kuro said, there's no need to be impatient because there's still time.
　Let's get to know her little by little, let's get closer to her heart little by little.

''Kuro, I don't know when the next one will be but can I ask her out this time?''
...Yeah. I'm looking forward to it.

　First of all, today, let's start by recognizing our feelings.
　And now let's express those feelings in action... Honestly, I'm new to everything, and I have a lot of anxiety, but I'll do my best.

　Dear Mom and Dad - in a way, this is probably the biggest change I've made since coming to another world. I had been running away from relationships with others in my former world, but when I came to another world, I met and fell in love with a mysterious demon race.

























　Black and I parted at Fountain Square and walked down the road at dusk towards Lilia-san's mansion.
　Thinking back to the fun we had today, I walked forward with a faint smile on my lips, and after a bit - I noticed something strange.

　The time is dusk, and it should be crowded with people returning home or going out to dinner, but the wide, straight road was enveloped in an odd silence, with not even a shadow of a soul in sight.
　It's as if this space was cut off from the world, as if it were the only one that was clearly abnormal, and it naturally stopped in front of the scene.

''........What is this--?

　Immediately afterwards, a chill ran down my back and my whole body stood on end.
　The buildings in the vicinity melted as if they were rotting, and the road in front of me was collapsing, a sensation so horrifying that it was almost impossible to imagine the scene in my mind.
　I don't know why, but my body was shaking and my thirsty throat was making a very loud noise.
　And it's not just your head, but your whole body's.........instincts warn you.

--something very 'terrible' is coming.

　It's different from the pressure from magic power that Black felt when he asked about Lilia-san's mansion before. It's a helplessly frightening sensation that warns the instincts of a more fundamental living being.
　It's so thick that you can feel it on your skin - a hint of death.
　And then, from the end of the dimly-lit road, which is dyed in silence, Sole appeared.

　Long hair as white as ashes, skin as white as morbidly as white, deep dark crimson eyes like blood.
　A woman dressed in gothic dress-style clothing, wrapped in a pale blue light, floated around and approached us with an eerie presence.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the next few weeks.

　I can't breathe well. Your instincts tell you to stay away from it.
　Don't get involved in it, get away from it now....
　But contrary to such thoughts, the body does not move as if it were frozen.

''........Strange magic power.......you.......brave?''
Huh?

　A cold voice rang out, and red eyes stared at me.
　I feel as if my whole body is frozen, and I stare at the woman in front of me, stunned.

　The sun has set, and in the middle of the darkening road, I - confronted the incarnation of death.
