Chapter 338: Let Him Have a Shuraba!
Before returning to Stardew Valley Ranch, Ryohei turned to Persephone II and said with a smile:
"Persephone II, I'll give you a day off today. Take some desserts from the shop and go thank your mother for me."
"Okay."
(´ ∀ ` *)
Persephone II readily agreed, clapping her hands lightly and saying cheerfully, "My mom loves custard puffs, she'll definitely be very happy!"
"Then take plenty."
Ryohei said generously.
"Mm-hmm."
Persephone II nodded gently, watched Ryohei leave, then turned lightly like a butterfly and happily went to the second floor to get the puffs.
"That damn servant...!"
In the first-floor lobby.
Jashin-chan crossed her arms and muttered, pondering how to face Yurine later.
Should she kneel immediately upon meeting, hug her thigh, and explain that she was just talking tough to satisfy her mouth... wonder if that would work!
"ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh!"
Jashin-chan sighed with a face full of melancholy, then cursed inwardly—That bastard servant really isn't human! A despicable villain who snitches behind people's backs...!
The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became. She tapped the tip of her tail on the floor, making a slight thwack-thwack sound.
At this moment, the time reached ten o'clock.
Pekola walked to the shop entrance and opened the door of the dessert shop—
Starting today's business!
Ilulu was assigned the tasks of packaging and cashiering.
Poporon, who had been asked by Tohru to teach her how to work correctly, stood inside the cashier counter, demonstrating while explaining:
"We stand here, wait for customers to choose their desserts and come over, use the scanner to scan the label on the dessert—every dessert has one—then look at the total price displayed on the screen..."
Poporon raised her hand, pointed to the numbers on the screen, turned to Ilulu, and said, "This column here, collect money according to the amount, understand?"
"Understood." Ilulu nodded, indicating she remembered.
"Very good."
"Next, if a customer suddenly doesn't want a dessert that has already been scanned, you select that dessert and press the Delete key on the keyboard to remove it..."
"..."
After demonstrating all possible scenarios, Poporon walked to the other cashier counter and stopped, saying, "I'll be right here. Call me anytime if you need anything."
"Got it." Ilulu responded, her gaze sweeping over the customers entering the shop.
So many humans! Hmm... seems like not just humans...
Before she could ponder further, a customer approached the cashier with selected desserts, and she fell into an uncontrollable state of busyness.
It wasn't until the shift change at noon that she finally relaxed.
A certain curry rice shop near the "Meet You" Dessert Shop—
"Poporon, are you an angel?"
Ilulu ordered a specialty tonkatsu curry rice—this meal was temporarily paid for by Tohru.
While waiting for the food, she looked curiously at Poporon sitting opposite her.
"You found out."
Poporon, holding a complimentary glass of ice water and sipping it in small mouthfuls, raised her eyes to glance at Ilulu.
"Yeah... where's the halo on your head?"
Ilulu tilted her face up, looked at the top of Poporon's head, blinked her dot eyes, and pointed at the top of her own head to demonstrate.
"Pfft—!"
Jashin-chan at the next table burst out laughing instantly. She covered her mouth, her face full of schadenfreude: "Poporon used to be a black-hearted angel, so her halo was confiscated by Yurine, hahaha..."
o(*≥▽≤)ツ┏━┓
Jashin-chan laughed maniacally while slapping the table, causing some customers in the shop to look sideways.
"Shut up!"
Poporon's face turned black. She glared over with extreme displeasure and retorted, "No matter what, I'm still better than you, a guy who gets beaten up every day, right?"
"Uh...!"
Jashin-chan's smile froze on her face.
"Oh my! Why aren't you laughing anymore? Are you naturally not fond of smiling?"
Seeing Jashin-chan deflated, the corners of Poporon's mouth lifted slightly, her mood instantly brightening.
Indeed, happiness is built on the suffering of others!
Jashin-chan's mouth twitched as she corrected, "Not every day..."
"You're emphasizing that to me?"
Poporon leaned back, speechless.
"Anyway, it's not every day!"
"..."
While the two bickered, Ilulu was thinking about the person named "Yurine"—she had heard this name in the morning too!
Sounds like someone not to be messed with...
Is she a human? No, impossible to be a human!
Before even meeting her, Ilulu had labeled Yurine as "not to be messed with" and "non-human"—Jashin-chan and Poporon contributed greatly to this!
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked them for my halo back in a long time." Poporon crossed her arms and fell into deep thought.
When did it start? Before, she would ask from time to time when they could return her halo...
Poporon remembered immediately!
It was from the moment she learned from Pino that she had become a traitor to Heaven and was wanted...
"Tsk—!"
Thinking about it now, she still felt very wronged!
"So what if you ask for it back? Aren't you still a traitor to Heaven?" Jashin-chan seized the opportunity to counterattack, stabbing precisely at Poporon's chest.
Then she grinned, revealing a sly smile, and tempted, "Poporon, I'm going back to the Demon World in a few days. Do you want to come with me? I can help you become a fallen angel!"
"Temptation from a demon!"
Pekola sitting beside her couldn't sit still anymore. She quickly looked at Poporon next to her and advised, "Poporon, don't listen to her! If you go, there's no turning back!"
"As if you can turn back now."
Jashin-chan looked at Pekola, revealing a wicked smile: "We're all so familiar with each other, I won't favor one over the other... Pekola, I can help you become a fallen angel too!"
"Pekola doesn't want that!"
Former Archangel Pekola refused resolutely without thinking.
"Don't even think about fooling me!"
Poporon narrowed her eyes halfway, glanced sideways at Jashin-chan, and snorted lightly, "Although the current situation is indeed bad, it hasn't reached the point where I have to become a fallen angel!"
"Heh—!"
Jashin-chan let out a mocking sound.
At this time, everyone's curry rice was served one after another, the aroma overflowing.
Tohru ate a few mouthfuls, then suddenly felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. She took it out and saw it was a message from Ryohei.
She turned her head and said to Ilulu, who was eating with relish:
"Ilulu, Tanaka-kun asks you to go to the restaurant with Jashin-chan later to taste his cooking."
"Hmm? Okay!"
Ilulu, with a bit of curry on the corner of her mouth, looked sideways and responded happily.
She had long heard from Tohru and Kanna how delicious Ryohei's cooking was.
Now that Ryohei was inviting her to eat, she was naturally happy!
Jashin-chan and the others also heard Tohru's words and looked up at the two.
The scummy snake had an idea and tempted the seemingly gullible Ilulu: "Ilulu, you must thank the servant properly later! Let him feel your conscience!"
"Conscience?"
Ilulu looked over in puzzlement, her expression blank.
How could she let Ryohei feel her conscience?
"Just your chest!"
Jashin-chan pointed to her world-class fullness and said seriously, "Let him knead it!"
Bastard!
If he dared to snitch on her in the morning, she dared to open a Shuraba (carnage field) for him, setting his harem on fire!
Just wait and see! Servant!
A sinister smile appeared on Jashin-chan's face.
