For You This World I'll Destroy

Travelers from Another World (2)

—2—

A great view awaits me in front of the house. In front of a second-rate store, the tails gathered expectantly anxiously. Their eyes radiated a ray of hope as they looked at the shop plank that read Lantern Flowers, which I painted myself with a sweet touch of flowers on the edges.

Only, indeed my shop often rame, but never this serame. What the hell is going on?

"That's it, Ma Dame Clair!" shouted a rhino daemon pointing at me. Then all the tails there stood his ears and immediately swarmed over me and called me.

"O-Oh, Ma Dame Clair, do you really have a cure for a disease called Mutterbeweisen? One for me, my son is very sick!" said an elephant mother asking me with tears. Not only himself, but the other daemons also asked for help from me.

“U-Uh, sorry yes Dame, but Flowers Lanterns that store chemicals not drugs,” I replied awkwardly.

“Loh, but says people, Dame sells Mutterbeweisen?”

“H-Ha? Says who?” many confused.

From a distance, a small black haired woman ran up to me. Her tears flowed from her eyes and nose, revealing a crybaby face that was very familiar to me. That woman is Luciel Diamanda, my faithful servant. Smiling amusedly, I could not believe that the crybaby face turned out to be very agonizing.

Whining frantically Luciel pulled my dress and said, “Ma D-Dame Clair!! Y-You're back!”

Brushing her hair softly, I calmed the crybaby, "Hush, hush, it's already Luciel. You miss me so much that you've seen me after six months?" godaku's.

Holy hooch! Luciel shook him and wiped his snot on my dress…

"Who misses a lazy shop owner like Dame? I'm lazy, prank again! Because Dame's fad spreads strange rumors, the store gets overwhelmed with customers booming like gini, huh!" his nag.

“Rumors? I'm not spreading any rumors,” I argue.

Chequek!

Quietly put up the handcuffs connecting my hands and hers. Luciel smiled innocently at me, “Just Dame must take responsibility. Today, Dame can't go anywhere before all these customers come home!”

"Wait a minute, Luciel. K-K-You know I'm a real introvert who's not good at dealing with people? ”

“Introvert pure bale. Anyway Dame has to work today!" force Luciel to pull me into the store.

Ugh, left six months, apparently my servant is so brave with his master huh!

The hour hand had been pointed at three in the afternoon before the last customer came home with a satisfied smile. I sat down near the cash register which was full and saw my hands which had flared red streaks. Six months of not using magic, it looks like my lousy magic circuit is faster.

Little laugh I admire the store that Luciel arranged, “As if I was trapped in a fairyland,” my murmur.

I leaned back and saw a collection of magic chemicals neatly arranged on the store shelves. A wide variety of glass bottles were decorated by colorful magic compounds into eye sweets. There is a crystal-shaped compound with a small brilliance of dust in it, there is also a snail house full of edible ornaments. All made from various materials that I got from my adventure.

Suddenly, Luciel tapped my head with a mop handle, “Dame the job is not done yet. Today's cash has not been written,” scolds who also started cleaning the store.

Little laugh I, “Iye, iye, fierce very,” reply me who by lightning counted the pieces of silver and bronze in the treasury.

“Oiya, so actually what rumors are circulating about our store?” my many.

While wiping the floor, Luciel replied in surprise, “Dame pretended not to know yes. Ituloh, rumors about Dame the Moon Daemon. Because of the rumors, this week our store rame customers from abroad.”

On a whim, I approached Luciel and hugged him from behind. With my fangs, I also wrinkled his neck that looks delicious, “Gawrr, I am the Moon Daemon, come to drink your blood.”

Luciel narrowed his eyes, “Dame want me to report to Hwarang Police?”

“Amm, geez,” said I then laughed amusedly and took off the girl, “Hmm, but fortunately I do know a wide variety of prescription drugs. Otherwise, today many customers will be disappointed,” I said who then brewed tea.

“Or maybe a sign from the Goddess to open a new branch that specifically sells magic drugs,” my candle that enjoys the fragrant aroma of Chamomile that relaxes my muscles. Enjoying the silence as the shop closed, I watched Luciel closely.

Luciel is a masterpiece I created seven years ago. The most perfect homunculus that was successfully created by an untalented witch like me.

Acting and speaking like a human being, no one would have thought that Luciel was just a machine behind his skin. His body was cold with no pulse because the heart in his chest was made of Magicite— magic energy stones connected to a complex magic system called Noctis Labyrinthus. The system then simulates the human brain in Luciel and gives him the ability to think and feel.

"Hmm?" I noticed Luciel suddenly stopped mopping the floor. His eyes looked out the window, shining to see a group of children playing pockfighting outside.

"If you want to play with those kids, you can" I said, standing up and starting to brew my herbal tea.

"E-uh?! N-No, Dame. I-I'm just-“

"You're the same age as them, aren't you? For example, your body will never grow again, but the story is different from your psyche" I said, putting a leaf of the Yggdrassil tree in the middle, the perfect blend to relieve the heat of my magic circuit.

"Luciel, the children's task is enough to wake up, eat, play, troublesome parents and sleep. The business of responsibility and duty, later if it has grown up well," I continued half-joking.

“The words of a master who left his homunculus for six months," Luciel's lips.

I also replied, “Enak only ninggalin. I call you every day via telepathy. If even why-why, Homunculus as strong as you can clean it yourself right.”

Laughing amusedly, Luciel ran up to me and handed me the bucket with the mop. Smiling grimaced the boy looked at me, then sweetly said, “If Dame herself were to offer, Luciel would gladly accept it!” before leaving and joining his friends outside.

"O-Oh, yeah. Careful," I said, but to my senses, Jesus, the Homunculus just told me to clean up the shop? Basic insolent tengil, hihihi.

CRINGS! CRINGS!

There was a bell that always rang when customers passed through the store door. Uh, there's still customers at this hour, isn't it almost four in the afternoon? Oh, my God, what a long day. Still busy mopping the floor, I turned my head as I said,

"I'm sorry customer, we're closed.“

There was no answer, I looked up and was shocked.

There was no one at the door. The sound of running footprints made me think, uh, must be one of Luciel's secret admirers. I designed Luciel as a sweet and adorable fifteen-year-old girl, but behind her figure she was much stronger than a knight. I predicted that the man who asked Luciel to join the husband-and-husband club would be afraid of his wife.

“Ara, it looks like men don't leave handkerchiefs. It was so romantic,” my murmur that took the item off the floor.

In that elegant handkerchief I found a name embroidered with gold thread.

A.A.N

Hrmm, an initial? There were some merchants of Pei Jin city who had that name. But, the swastika motif on the right end of this handkerchief is really similar to the handkerchief given by a woman to soldiers who go to war? Is that the culture that exists in the human land, Kinje?

Why are there humans in this Daemon city?

Oh, my God, am I senile? Master Desmond said that six months ago, Ma Dame Fan allowed human refugees to live on the periphery of the city. Heh, that old granny does indeed like to trouble her.

“But why did the man run away when he saw me? Don't tell... He recognized me?” muttered confused.

I smell that handkerchief, soaking in its distinctive aroma. I traced the scent of his body through the cobblestone path, following the wind that pierced the sweat of the carefree children playing and in the end, I found the man jumping from one roof of the house to another, like a thief.

I opened my eyes to show a scary snake iris, “Meet you,” I said grimacing exclaimed.
