Chapter 59: It's so Wonderful

After all that ordeal I'm finally back to the real world.

"hey"

It's a busy week, we first had to revive the unfairly eliminated players. believe me when I say finding souls is hard work. even Joshua has a headache.

"Hey."

The next things we did was to expand the range of activities of the reapers game, not just eliminating noise and whatnot, but it also involves:

1. the player doing real world work.

2. the player filing reports depending on the work done.

The players with good charisma are immediately trained to be the next reaper, angel and/or idols and whatnot, since they're now a part of our Sugimura group.

Whilst the players who show promise in other areas are also scouted beforehand.

The only thing that's a downside is how hard they are to contact. but that's what we have to figure out in the future.

It's good to have unpaid Intern--- Players.

"HEY!"

Ah and she came with me. I dunno why. I asked if she wanted to head home. which She just shook her head.

we're currently in a mall, as I need new clothes.

"I thought you're mute."

"Rude."

"So what's wrong?"

"Why can I access my persona in the real world?"

I shrugged my shoulders and proceeded to pay. because I don't have a persona... At least I think I didn't. I have a pokemon instead.

"Is this for realz You could eat beef for a whole month with that money! Are those really clothes?"

Noisy. Coco is also here with me, she's stuck to me once I told her I have a talent agency. It seems like she wanted to be a model....

Well I told her the criteria, she cried... and here I am... Well she could be a kid's model though or a singer.... Well, I'll meet Hideyoshi later anyways.

*ring ring*

"Akira Here."

"Where are you?"

"xx mall"

"Oh we're here too."

Huh strange, Why did Yu decide to come to Tokyo?

wait .. "We?"

"Yeah..."

"Ok, let's meet up at dinner, I haven't eaten yet."

"Sure.."

'Is that Akira-kun?'

'Let's have him buy us food!'

'Kanji, you can't say that'

'But ain't he loaded?'

'Yes, but do you dare say it in his face'

'Infront of Aniki's face? It's fine right?'

"It's fine I'll pay."

"Sorry..."

"You don't need to be, ah is there any chance that you can bring a coworker of a long nosed man here."

"!"

"She's a beautiful woman with white hair"

"!"x2

Hmmm I remember that persona 3 also has an assistant, but I don't know if it's Elizabeth or Theo...

"I'm sure she'll come if you mention something about a messiah."

"I'll do that."

"Thank You."

I saw a certain red haired girl glaring daggers at me but at this point I'm just tired, I don't care.

---

Yu reserved the whole diner, good job. Since he knew that we're most likely going to be talking about complicated stuff.

we're at an Italian restaurant.

"WTF! Is this what you eat everyday? such is the life of a bigshot huh?"

"Who are they?" asks Yu, with a smirk.

"Your predecessor, and a coworker."

"Predecessor?"

"Coworker?"

"So where's the white haired lady?"

"Margaret-san says she needs to take her sister along."

"..."

and suddenly the diner's door opened, and the two white haired sisters came in.

"AH! is it... really..."

The girl with short hair and blue uniform launched herself to the girl with red hair by my side... I never knew her name huh...

(WN: I'm going to use Minako Arisato.)

"Minako, is it really you Minako...?"

Minako nods and caresses the white haired girl slowly.

"To think a Maou will save a messiah."

"Fate works in strange ways Margarett-dono."

"To think you even know my name, you sure are a mysterious demon lord."

"Yu just mention your name, I merely remembered."

"So what business brought you here, Aniki?"

Ah Kanji thanks for the save.

"Oh it's nothing really, just dealing with someone who doesn't keep their word."

"OH? I hate liars too Aniki, so how do you deal with them?"

"A couple of lawyers and a fine of several billion yen."

"!?!?"

"Who owes you that much Akira-senpai?"

asks an intrigued Nagato.

"Sugimura group."

"!"

"Did they pay?"

"No, we worked out a deal, guess who now owns a bit of the Sugimura group?"

"GASP! You're my boss now Senpai?"

"Huh? You worked with the Sugimura group before?"

"I was their idol...."

oh no wonder she's there the other day...

"Don't have to worry about it anymore, I made sure to reform the group from the ground up."

"I'm glad to hear that senpai! What about the old CEO? I'm sure he won't let it slide..."

"Ah? that? haven't you heard, he's retiring, and his son is going to take the reign of the company, with our guidance of course."

"Then Can I ask for a raise?"

"Hmmmm... you had to ask Hideyoshi for that."

Suddenly the dinner's door opened again and this time Kubo, Hideyoshi, and Sugimura came in.

"My hideyoshi sense is tingling!" Ah hideyoshi's here.

"AH! You're so Cute! What makeup did you use? skin tone? wowzers never seen a girl like you before!"

"Ah, woah, Maou-sama, can you introduce us?"

"Oh this is Coco, she's…. a friend's sister, I was wondering if she can try out for a model or a singer."

"Ah! Let's get you set up first, here's my card, call me later ok?"

with that done, Coco immediately excused herself, as she's still a full time reaper.

"Are you Rise-chan"

"Ah yes that's me."

Sugimura is suddenly taking the initiative to talk to Rise.

"I'm sorry, for what my company has caused you, and done to you. Please forgive us. I've dealt with everyone involved and if you still have any griefence left please let me know."

he bows and says those words, leaving Rise-chan flustered.

...

"So, Maou-sama, what are we going to talk about here, I've cleared up my schedule for the day."

Asks Kubo respectfully.

"Ah, it's about a future venture. I'm here to tell you that I'm sure you've heard from Jin already."

"Ah! you mean the man who proposed to give us free interns?"

"Yes that guy, I was wondering what's the progress on it?"

"Well I was sceptical at first, but it's no joke that he managed to bring hundreds of people last week. It helped a lot. especially in retail."

"So, what do you think about the performance of the interns?"

"Rough, to say the least, but they're willing to do manual labour which is good."

"Are they usable?"

"Of Course Maou-sama at this point, we need every hand we can get. especially with how fast we're growing."

"Good, then can you help me set up a production line for clothing."

"Huh? Are we going for the fashion industry next?"

"Yeah, I heard from Jin that he has a lot of creative talents and needed a place for them to grow."

"Are we purchasing an established production line or..."

"That's for you to decide, but remember the age range of the human resource?"

"Ah! Now that you mention it they're either late teens or young adults."

"Yeah, I think having an expert in the field is better. any recommendations?"

"I'll see what I can do. then i'll be searching for a few possible purchases by your leave Maou-sama"

I nod my head.

"Waga Maou."

"Hideyoshi, how are the preparations for the anime?"

"Yes? Oh, we'll be premiering tomorrow, with full support from Sugimura group, we even have the whole hour to ourselves."

"Ah Kubo has already left, but did you know what happened with our other projects?"

"Ah you mean the online video platform? It's still in its early stages and we're currently set to launch next month."

"Ok, confirm with Kubo and Sugimura about which shows we are going to premiere there. and ask mijima about what content he wanted to show there."

"Of course, anything else?"

"I asked kubo to purchase a few textile shops as we're entering the fashion industry, I was wondering whether there's any industry you like?"

"Hmmmm. Even if you say that... I have an interest in food though..."

"Tell me Hideyoshi what's the fastest growing food chain right now?"

"Hmmm on top of my head would be Okumura-Food's BIG BANG BURGER or BBB"

"You should study their business model, maybe we will be working closely with them."

"Did I hear about Okumura Food?"

"Ah Sugimura-kun."

"Forgive me for intruding on Maou-sama, but I overheard Okumura Food, I've been in contact with them for a while now. as it may be fate that I'm engaged to the president's daughter."

"..... Aren't you?"

"Ah, It's in all but name, but you see, that Fiance of mine, is rather... how can you put it in words... young. They aim for my family's fortune to expand their business."

"*sigh* There's still that kind of person huh."

"You mean those who sell their family members, especially their kids? there's surprisingly a lot of them..."

"..."

"You may not know, but before my sister's birth she even had a fiance already..."

What era is this? Wait, your sister? well he did mention it when killing his father....

"Ah, you don't have to worry about that maou-sama, she's the lucky few, which is able to marry someone her age."

I don't want to know anymore...

"So should I contact Okimura-Foods? I can set up the meeting."

Now that you mention it, how young is Haru right now?

Should I screw the cannon? I mean....

"I think it's better if we can make something ourselves."

"Make something? you have something in mind?"

"Let's make Bubble tea..." I remember this trend is tenacious in the future...

"Bubble tea?"

I explained to them what I wanted.

"If you say so.."

"We should start small, maybe a small stand in every mall will do. make sure we have some 10 odd variations first, along with fried snacks."

"That's an interesting combination... Do you have a name in mind Maou-sama?"

"Let's call it Demon-KOI" I joked

"WAGA MAOU" but they took it seriously...

---

Now that the business talks are done...

I finally was able to eat my foo---

Where's my food?

I looked to my left and saw Kanji and Teddy eating a lot, with plates forming a mountain by the side...

on my right is Minako with Elizabeth doubling what Kanji and teddy eats.

Yu is by the side eating peacefully with his harem members.

What a peaceful day.

*clang clang*

the diner's doorbell rang as it opened, a middle aged man with a pink suit and a hat with a beard came in.

"Is Maou-sama here?"

ah me and my big mouth.
