Intermission: Peaceful Sky Ozma Doesn't Tell 2

The Capital of the Archlesia Empire.

A small coffee shop quietly stands at the end of the main street. There are only counter seats and two table seats in the store, which isn’t very spacious to say the least, and the only people in that place are the owner and one customer. A man with shaggy black hair and stubble, and a wrinkled, disheveled gray trench coat…… Ozma sat at the counter and leisurely sipped his coffee.

[……Fuu~~ The coffee in this place is as tasty as usual~~]

[Thank you…… That’s all well and good, but Uncle? Why don’t you at least shave your beard?]

[Well~~ Ahaha, it feels troublesome.]

[……Geez.]

At the counter stands a petite girl around 130 cm tall…… The Dwarven shopkeeper speaks to Ozma, a regular customer since her father’s generation, in a rather dumbfounded tone. Hearing her words, Ozma lazily replied while awkwardly brushing his hair with his hand.

[Well~~ Even so, your skills have really improved, haven’t they?]

[I still couldn’t match Father’s skill though.]

[Hmmm. Previous shopkeeper has his good parts, while young lady has her own.]

[Do you even know what you’re talking about, Uncle?]

[Well, ahaha…… You got me.]

Her tone would have sounded rude for a normal customer, but for the girl who had known Ozma-san for a long time, she was acting just as usual. Wryly smiling, Ozma looked around the shop that had no other customers.

[……Is the business not running smoothly?]

[……Well, I can’t say that I’m making profit even if it’s a lie, but I’m not really in the red, you know? We also have some regulars like Uncle.]

[I see…… Oya?]

[Eh?]

When Ozma expressed his worries about the young girl who lost her parents at an early age and is running the store with her small body, the girl responded with a bright smile. Ozma tried to give a gentle smile at those words, but soon after, he sensed something and turned his gaze towards the entrance door. Just as the young girl moved her gaze there, the door of the store was roughly opened and several men who looked like thugs entered.

[……It’s you lot again huh……]

[Hehehe, we’re back to negotiate. Have you thought about it already, shopkeeper?]

[No matter how many times you come, I have no intention of giving up this store! This is my father’s precious store!]

[My, oh my. But you see…… It’s difficult being a lone woman, you know? “You never know what will happen”.]

[ ! ? ]

Seeing the man look at her with a coarse smile on her face, the girl backed away a bit, looking frightened, but she still turned her strong eyes to the men. The atmosphere was so tense…… that you could almost describe it as a critical situation…… but this was broken by the sound of a cup falling to the ground.

[Whoa there!?]

[Uncle!? A- Are you alright?]

[Arya~~ It spilled on me……]

[Please hold on! I’ll get you a towel……]

Ozma drops his cup of coffee and looking at his coat, which has a large stain on it, he had an ashamed expression on his face.
