The next day, during his lunch break, Maou stood in front of Sentucky. He peered inside through the door, but didn’t see that regional manager anywhere.
“Guess Sariel’s around.”
Steeling his resolve, he opened the door, only to quickly realize something. Despite being a rival in two different ways—a competing fast-food chain, run by an archangel who had it out for him—he had never set foot inside this place before. It had a relaxed, chic atmosphere, maybe a touch more upscale than MgRonald’s, and that went a long way toward explaining the higher prices on the à la carte menu.
He had aimed for a slower stint of the afternoon, so it was quickly his turn at the counter—and just as he hoped for, Sarue was manning the register in front of him.
“Hello! How can I…? Oh. You.”
The salesman’s smile disappeared the moment he recognized Maou, but his eyes were turned down, as if a bit fatigued.
“What do you want? Because I don’t have the energy to talk to you right now.”
“Because your boss pissed off Ms. Kisaki?”
“Ugh…” Sarue groaned at this unwelcome call out, only to then hedge. “Um…how was Ms. Kisaki afterward?”
“Well, thanks to her violently kicking you guys out, the company’s punishing her a couple different ways.”
“P-punishing?! Ah, ahhh, what terrible news! And I was there the whole time…”
He began to shake, as if he’d crumple to the floor right there.
“You were there, but you didn’t help any of us out at all, did you?”
“I—I don’t need you reminding me! As if you could’ve stepped in between Manager Tanaka and Ms. Kisaki back there!”
Remaining totally statue-like instead of attempting to stop an argument between two fast-food employees was a pretty pathetic performance for both of them, frankly. But:
“What, you have trouble dealing with her?”
“I am weak against the beautiful, as a rule.”
“I wasn’t asking that, dumbass.”
Maou banged a fist against the counter, before he realized what he was doing. He didn’t know much about Sarue’s personal preferences, but if Kisaki was a beauty like ice, or night, or the moon, Himeko Tanaka was more like the sun or the prairie in summertime. Flashier. Whether he wanted to get closer to her was another matter, but she was definitely pretty—pretty enough to earn praise from Sarue, despite his infatuation with Kisaki.
“Well, in so many words…Manager Tanaka is…an old classmate of Ms. Kisaki’s.”
“Ah, so that’s it. They seemed acquainted.”
He surmised that much from the HR database, not that he was going to tell Sarue about that.
Sarue continued, “I mentioned to her that I’ve spoken with Ms. Kisaki in the past, and she latched on to that in the strangest way. I was hoping to learn more about Ms. Kisaki myself, so we talked about what we knew with each other. Then, out of nowhere, she shows up yesterday and says she’s gonna say hello to her…”
“Mm-hmm?”
He made it sound like Himeko Tanaka wanted to see Kisaki more than anything in her restaurant.
“But didn’t you just tell me that you had trouble dealing with that manager?”
“Like I said, I am weak against beautiful women.
