While Allen and Charlotte gazed into each other’s eyes, Magus, Groh, and the others whispered secretly with Miaha.
“Ehh… So playing it safe on a date is no good…?”
“No, to be honest, it's actually fine nya. It's a much more reliable move than trying too hard and messing everything up nya.”
“Then why’d you completely shoot it down earlier?”
"You see... even if the Demon King aims for a typical romantic date, he’s definitely just going to get so nervous that it turns into a disaste, nya. It’d be much better if he just acted like he always does, nya.”
"Yeah...That guy is the type who loses his cool at the last minute when it comes to love and romance."
“Little miss, you’ve got a good eye for people…”
Some very rude whispering could be heard from the side, but for now, Allen decided to ignore it.
Still holding Charlotte’s hand, he spoke with a serious expression.
“Um, Charlotte…”
"Y-Yes...?"
Charlotte tilted her head nervously. The angle of her face, the subtle quiver in her eyes, the glimpse of white teeth between her slightly parted lips…
All of it sparkled radiantly in Allen’s eyes.
(T-This is strange… Was she always this cute…?)
After their feelings were shared, she seemed all the more attractive.
Allen swallowed unconsciously. He nearly swallowed the words he wanted to say along with his saliva, but somehow he managed to hold it in and shouted them out as loud as he could.
“Please! Go on a date with me!”
“Eh.”
At those words, Charlotte froze completely.
Thanks to this, Allen could only panic.
“Ah, w-was that… not okay…?”
"N-no, it's not like that... a date... a date, you say..."
Blushing deeply, Charlotte smiled shyly.
“I-I’d be happy to. Thank you… very much.”
"...!"
At that moment, a jolt of electricity ran through Allen’s body.
He was overcome with the urge to pick Charlotte up and run a lap around the city. Thankfully, his body froze in place, preventing that catastrophe.
"R-Right. Well then, tomorrow. Let's go out tomorrow. Just the two of us."
“Y-Yes. The two of us… together.”
Allen and Charlotte spoke as awkwardly as two broken-down magic puppets.
『So we’re guarding home alone huh... 』
『There's nothing we can do about this. It would be unacceptable to interrupt their first date.』
Not only Lu and Gosetsu, but the customers in the store all looked on with warm eyes.
In the middle of it all, Allen was savoring the immense joy bubbling up within him.
(I'm glad I confessed...! I'm the happiest man in the world...!)
They hadn’t even gone on the date yet, but he already felt on top of the world. He wondered what would happen when they actually went on the date. All he could think of was death, but that would have been a satisfying end in itself.
As he was vaguely thinking about such pointless things, that's when...
“—!”
Suddenly, a fierce presence swept through the room, and Allen instinctively caught his breath.
That was definitely murderous intent.
It was only for a moment, and it was very weak, so it seemed that only Allen, Luu, and Gosetsu noticed it.
The two of them kept their mouths shut, casually observing their surroundings.
"Allen, is something wrong?"
"No, nothing."
Charlotte tilted her head, but Allen assured with a smile.
(The murderous intent just now was definitely directed at us... no, at Charlotte.)
Allen quietly lowered his eyes to the table.
There were many glasses lined up on the table, and the view of the bar was reflected in the photo.
Customers watching them with amused smiles, waitresses keeping their distance, people partying without a care in the world… and, in the corner.
"......"
A beastman was silently sipping cheap liquor.
His whole body was covered in fine black fur, and his face was shaped just like a leopard's. With an eyepatch covering his right eye, the beastman stared intently in the direction of the camera. And in his hands was a piece of paper spread out.
There was no mistaking it――It was a wanted poster for Charlotte.
