Amid the calm sea breeze, a whirl of colorful flame danced a rondo of light in the darkness.

“That… That’s got a lot of kick to it, huh?”

At the far end of the stick Ashiya gingerly held in one hand, sparks shot off in a seemingly neverending cavalcade of color, eerily lighting up his pained-looking face.

“Mommy! Sparkly sparkly sparkly!”

“We can just watch together, okay, Alas Ramus? You’re still too young for that.”

That was doubtful, considering her daughter could turn into a sword powerful enough to make archangels cry to their own mommies. But like any small child, bright lights and loud noises could often make Alas Ramus break into tears.

Their vantage point on the beach gave them a good view of the whizzing streams of light, but placing even a plain old sparkler in her hand would probably be too much for her.

“So, like, what’s so fun about these things, anyway?”

Urushihara, crouched down on the beach nearby, was never going to be particularly engrossed by the small black-snake pellets and their undulating lines of ash in front of him. Emi didn’t bother commenting, preferring to focus on her motherly duties.

The Ohguro-ya beach house now at least looked the part of a welcoming snack shop and beach retreat—enough so that Amane had the time to host a beachside fireworks party to welcome Maou and his pals.

“Hey! Ashiya! Gimme a light! I’m gonna try four of these at once!”

Now he was attempting to light four heavy-duty sparklers at the same time off the one Ashiya was carrying.

The almighty King of All Demons had his arms thrust into the sky, four different varieties of color sparklers in his hands.

“…I am gladdened to see you in good spirits, my liege.”

Ashiya stuck his sparkler toward Maou’s smorgasbord of fire sticks…but not in time.

“Ah, too slow…”

His sparkler sputtered out halfway down the stick, leaving him time to light only three of Maou’s.

“…Aw, man! The sticks were all different colors, but the light’s all the same.”

The Lord of Demons was a little disappointed.

When Emi returned to the beach house that afternoon, she was just in time to catch Suzuno and Alas Ramus, both a little bored of playing in the sand. They took a quick break as Ashiya experimented with making the kind of huge yakisoba batches they’d need with only the ingredients on hand. That wound up being everyone’s lunch.

“Ohh, if only we had this kind of firepower in Devil’s Castle…”

The temperature of the liquid propane gas-powered griddle was enough to astonish him, to the point where he kept muttering that plaintively to himself.

After the lunch break, Maou enlisted Suzuno to pick a spot shielded by the wind and build a full-on version of her previous Japanese-style sand castle. Emi left the work crew temporarily to keep Alas Ramus distracted.

Urushihara was busily sanding away at the tops of the chairs he had just ripped the foam away from.

Ashiya, studying the core recipes for Ohguro-ya’s food menu, attempted to prepare them with what he could find on the shelves.
