After a while, the next room in the apartment became noisy.

Although it came a little earlier than usual, it seemed that the younger sister of the Xiao family was waking up her brother. While thinking about the interaction between them, which has always been good no matter what, Yukina can't help but smile.

“——！”

And that soft smile suddenly turned into a sharp demon attacker's expression. Because Yukina felt the barrier that spread around the apartment shake, and someone's mana invasion was about to invade it.

The intruder, who flew down from the sky, stopped outside the window of Yukina's room.

In a cramped room is bad for a spear. Yukina, who judged it this way, put the "Snow Wolf" aside and pulled out the knife that had been placed at the bottom of the student's bag in advance. This is one of the basic equipment of the Sword Witch, and even if it does not reach the level of "Snow Wolf", it is also an enchantweapon with powerful demon-breaking power.

Yukina set it up without negligence and quickly opened the window.

“…………”

In front of me, there is a bird. It is a bird of prey that shines with a silvery glow.

The bird's form disintegrated in front of Yukina and turned into a letter. Shikigami - But this is also a powerful demon who easily passed through Yukina's barrier. There are not many sorcerers who can release this level of Shikigami even in the Lion King Trap. This is too advanced a spell for just being used as a herald.

But he didn't feel the hostility emanating from the sorcerer.

Yukina was puzzled by this kind of thing and took the letter. And then there was a real shock this time.

"Hey......?"

The sunlight outside the window has become very strong, and it seems that the island of String God will be very hot today.

……

The seaside scenery reflected in the car window constantly passes by the eyes.

This is the tram they always take to school in the ancient city. Because the time is earlier than usual, the interior of the car is a little empty than usual, so the cooling efficiency is also good.

But the biggest difference from usual is the attitude of Yukina who is standing aside.

Carrying a guitar case containing a silver spear in it, it was the same as usual to keep an eye on the ancient city.

However, compared to the sword witch who carefully monitored Xiao Gucheng's words and deeds in the past, he always had an absent-minded expression at this time, and even sighed with an expression that looked into the distance.

This is a completely opposite extreme for Yukina, who has always maintained that she is absolutely serious about everything and does not allow any mistakes!

"Yukina? Hey, Miss Hiiragi? ”

After all, the ancient city felt concerned about Yukina's appearance, and called out to her in her ear.

But Yukina didn't respond. Just biting her little lip with a puzzled expression.

Even waving her hand in front of her eyes didn't respond. For the girl with an overly neat appearance, he became unresponsive, and Xiao Gucheng felt as if he was talking to a statue.

Without hesitation, the ancient city slammed the girl on the head.

"Hmm~ it hurts!" The girl hugged her head, and then Yukina glared at the ancient city dissatisfied, and a few tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.

"What are you doing there?" Ignoring the resentful eyes of the girl holding her head and staring at him, the ancient city looked at her amusedly.

"What?" Yukina pursed her lips dissatisfiedly and looked at the ancient city with resentment, "I'm just thinking about something." ”

By the way, when the two of them were messing around, most of the customers around showed an expression of 'early in the morning', and the remaining part and the remaining part looked at the two of them with envy.

"Is there anything to worry about?"

"Speaking of worries... Indeed, there is... In every sense of the word..."

"Is it because of the research thing?"

Ji Hiiragi Yukina is a sword witch sent by the Lion King Agency to monitor the Fourth True Ancestor, and if she enters Caihai Academy to study, it is only because of the monitoring process, and the school activities that have nothing to do with the mission are extremely likely to be unable to participate.

"No, that's ...... This morning, here comes such a thing! ”

"Letter?"

Yukina took out a piece of letter paper with wonderful creases from her school bag. It is a white piece of paper that can be seen with a silver glow, and the surface of it is written in fluent notebook English.

Gucheng took the letter and read it directly:

The Lion King Trap Sword Witch - Yukina Hiiragi! Appellants, please go to the Lion King Machine at 12 o'clock this morning to seal the 'Snow Wolf'!

"Is that so?" The ancient city tilted his head to look at Yukina beside him.

"Hmm." Yukina nodded and said, "The Fourth True Ancestor's monitoring mission has been lifted, I think that's what it means!" ”

Yukina said in a serious tone.

Her gun, which was named "Xuexia Wolf", was officially the secret weapon of the Lion King organ known as the "Type 7 Demon Suppression Assault Machine Gun". This spear, which can slash through all enchantments and neutralize magical power, is the ultimate pair of demonic gods that even vampire true ancestors can destroy. Yukina, who is on the task of monitoring the Fourth True Ancestor, is given the power to wipe out the ancient city when it is judged to be necessary. The "Snow Wolf", in other words, is a symbol of its privilege.

And the gun that was sealed, in other words, meant that Yukina's surveillance mission was lifted. But the four days from the day after tomorrow - this is unexpectedly the same as the scheduled day of the accommodation training in the junior high school of Caihai School Park.。

"Huh." Gucheng smiled and touched Yukina's head, "Just treat it as a holiday, a cute girl like Yukina should also relax appropriately!" ”

"It's not cute!" The girl blushed and skimmed over.

Just then, the monorail arrived at the station platform near the school.

……

The classroom was filled with the rich aroma of roasted butter. On the pan heated to the appropriate level, the shredded onion stirred together makes a sizzling sound.

In the morning class, we will divide into groups and practice cooking. The menu is a three-plate set of stylish Western dishes with lettuce salad, omelet rice, and beef stew. Regarding the skillful way of adding seasoning while operating the pan in the ancient city, Kiki Yase expressed admiration.

"Oh, yes, ancient city."

"Really, so skilled."

Then, Tsukishima Tsukushima, who is the class leader, said in a tone like a pet praising the versatile.

Then Blue Feather and Light Onion, dressed in an apron, stole the slices of crumbled bread for the salad, and stared at the ancient city dissatisfied, "Really, are you a demon?" No matter what it is, you can do it to this extent! ”

"Shut up!" While cooking non-stop, Gucheng said coldly, "Those who only stand on the sidelines and watch, and don't come to help, are not qualified to speak!" ”

In fact, unlike the original Xiao Gucheng, Xiao Gucheng's cooking skills are not proficient, it should be said that it is rotten! It's just that I used 1000 skill points to exchange for a 'Culinary Mastery' skill!

With this skill, the current cooking skills of Xiaogu City can be said to be not mastery!

But—

Oops, yase shook his head and sighed helplessly.

"Oh, what a fool, Gucheng...... I don't know how Tsukishima will be, but if I and Shallot and I help, it will only make your life even more important! ”

"It's noisy! You young ladies and young masters!!! ”

Although it is unimaginable from that light appearance, Yase is the son of a big capitalist. In addition, Lun and shallots can also be said to be surprising young ladies, and they also know that they have no experience in cooking.

But that doesn't explain why they don't come to help!

"It's naïve. In any case, the cake that Shallot baked in the fifth grade of elementary school was a weapon of mass destruction that sent the fourteen boys in the class to the hospital. Luckily, I had expected this to evacuate, so I was safe......"

"You, is it necessary to mention that kind of thing now!?"

Suddenly, the shallow onion of the past was revealed, and he protested to Yase with a flushed face.

From her tone, it can be inferred that the tragedy that Yase said seems to be true. After perceiving the disappointed gaze of his classmates, he coughed in a hurry

“…… Besides, don't judge a person by this kind of intelligence from years ago. I can do ordinary food and the like now. ”

"Really—"

"What is this suspicious gaze!?"

Shallot picked up the oil in his hand and threw it at Yase, who showed a completely disbelieving expression. It is Italian chili oil prepared in advance by the ancient city to enhance the flavor of the food. Splashed with the super chili oil soaked in pepper and garlic, Yase covered her face and fainted in pain.

Lun calmly watched the farce of the two childhood sweethearts with an old expression

"Well, isn't that good, Xiaojun. I think the boy who is good at cooking is very handsome. Right, shallots."

"Huh!? Well, well, maybe there is such a saying...... Just as a theorem, at best as a theorem! ”

Suddenly, the topic was thrown at him, and Shallot replied stiffly in an emotional voice.

Gu Gu, who was busy with cooking, shouted without hesitation after hearing the words of the two: "...... It's not a question of whether you're handsome or not, even if it's just a serving of food, give me a favor! ”

"In this way, the food made by Xiaojun's sister is delicious."

Actually, Nagisa's skills are pretty good for junior high school students. This is the result of taking over the housework on behalf of the mother who is often away from home. Although the level of cuisine in the ancient city is quite good, it is still far from Nagisha.

However, for the ancient city that now has 'mastery of cooking', his cooking skills are also among the best in the world! The cooking technique far surpassed that of Nagisa today.

But—

"I've told you to come over and help!!!"

However, Lun ignored the cries of the ancient city.

"If you marry Xiaojun, you'll be able to eat that sister's food for the rest of your life. That would be nice. ”

"It's not good at all!!!"

"That's right."

Agreeing with the ancient city's opinion is Yase, who is wiping his face with a towel full of spicy oil.
