After we finished shopping at the weapon shop, which was very satisfying for Amel-san, I headed towards the bar with Amel-san, who seemed to be very cheerful.
However, since Iris-san is at Isis-san’s castle during the day, the bar is only open at night. So, this time, we are just passing through here to get to the miscellaneous goods store.
[Unnn? Miyama Kaito and someone I haven’t seen before huh.]
[Arehh? Iris-san? I thought you would be at Isis-san’s place this time of the day……]
When I entered the bar, Iris-san greeted me in a very normal way.
[Indeed. As a matter of fact, my real body is in Isis-sama’s castle.]
[……That means, the Iris-san here is a clone?]
[Yeah, Alice taught me how to use it. I’m not as good as that guy in this magic though, so I am limited to making one or two clones. Well, with this magic, the clone will handle the business during the day, so you won’t have any problem coming in at any time.]
[I see…… Ahh, let me introduce you. This is Amel-san, the Chief of the Wingeds. Amel-san, this is Iris-san…… Death King’s Head Subordinate, who also serves as the owner of this bar.]
After nodding at Iris-san’s explanation, I introduced both Amel-san and Iris-san respectively.
[The King who governs Death? As I recall, the King who governs Death had not manifested any stars to follow her in this life…… but had there been a gap within time, or perhaps, have I just been gazing upon an empty shadow?]
[Our Isis-sama gaining subordinates was just something recent. It’s not unusual for you to not know about it.]
[I see, let us exchange our greetings once again. I am Amel, the wings soaring above the sky, she who was known as the Black Gale. Under the guidance of my sworn friend, I have tread upon the shrine underneath the deep. I possess the article to offer upon the altar, but would obtaining a drop of this sin be possible?]
[Death King’s Head Subordinate, Iris Illuminus. I am in your care…… Yeah, I don’t really mind. As long as I’m here, I’m open for business. Aside from drinks, I can also prepare light meals.]
[……Iris-san, you understood exactly what Amel-san is saying huh.]
The second half of Amel-san’s earlier statement meant “If I pay you, can I order alcohol?”. However, it seems that Iris-san understood exactly what she meant and responded without any hesitation.
Could it be, Iris-san also used to be afflicted by that…… No, speaking of which, I think she did a lot of cool chanting back then.
[She has an unusual way of speaking, but I can only speculate its meaning to a certain extent. That aside, what about you? Are you having a drink too, Miyama Kaito?]
[Ahh, I suppose. Well then, Amel-san, shall we have a little something to drink?]
[I agree. I’m also feeling like my karmic reserves are a little lacking.]
She’s feeling a little hungry huh……
[Well then, I’d like something non-alcoholic and a light meal, please. Would you prefer something alcoholic, Amel-san?]
[No, I’ll have the same as my sworn friend.]
[I received your order. Well then, take your seat and wait for a while.]
After suggesting we take a seat for me and Amel-san, she prepared that thing she shakes and waves…… a tool that was apparently called a shaker. You can also use that thing to make non-alcoholic cocktails?
After putting three different somethings inside it, she shook the shakeer and poured the finished cocktail into the glass prepared in front of me and Amel-san.
[……It’s a mocktail called Cinderella. A mocktail for those who can’t drink alcohol even when they went to a bar, named after Cinderella, who clad herself in magic and attended a ball.]
[It has a beautiful yellow color.]
[It’s a mixture of orange, pineapple and lemon juice, giving it a refreshing citrus flavor.]
Giving us a light explanation, she handed us the drink she prepared. When I held the glass in my hand and turned to Amel-san, her expression was extremely sparkling.
[A stylish drink in a stylish bar…… The coolness of an adult…… Nice.]
[Amel-san?]
[!?!? W- What is it?]
[Ahh, no, I’m just wondering if you’d like to make a toast?]
[Y- You’re right. Well then, for our friendship that transcends all eternity……]
Amel-san was a bit flustered, seemingly caught off-guard by my call, but she quickly regained her composure and held out her glass to me with a smile, so we lightly clinked glasses and exchanged a toast.
Thereupon, right at that moment, Iris-san served us a plate of sandwiches. The bite-sized sandwiches were stylishly presented and showed off Iris’ good taste.
Just like that, Amel-san and I enjoyed the delicious food and drinks, and chatted about random things with each other.
