Chapter 331
Seditch Magic Tool Trading Company, a large trading company in the Demon Realm . Adjacent to their main office is the castle of the Underworld King, Kuromueina . In its kitchen, the figure of the maid Ein and the silver wolf Eval could be seen .
[……You wanted me to teach you how to make chocolate, right?]
[Yes . Please . Sis Ein!]
[Why have you asked me this year?]
[Ah, no, that is…… That idiot Acht, ummm, he’s envious of Kaito…… W- Well, I mean, even if he’s an idiot, he’s my partner after all, so I thought it’s fine since there’s an occasion…… but I’m clumsy and no good when it comes to cooking so I thought I should ask Sis to teach me……]
Eval wants to give chocolate to her husband, the Blue Ogre Acht, but she doesn’t know how to make it because she doesn’t have any cooking experience . For that reason, Eval had turned towards Ein .
Hearing her words, Ein put her hand on her chin for a little while before she nodded .
[I don’t mind…… However, when I start teaching you, I won’t tolerate anything half-heartedly made…… Is that fine with you?]
[Y- Yes! I will be in your care . ]
[Well, if you’re that eager, you should be able to make something simple easily . ]
As Eval nodded with firm determination, Ein kindly smiled at her and then, began teaching her how to make chocolate .
It is Ein’s theory that a maid must be the closest to perfection in every way, and true to her beliefs, she must be perfect in guiding others as well .
She gives Eval, who has clumsy hands when it comes to cooking, precise instructions and guides her to finish her chocolate .
Ein may have said that “she won’t tolerate anything half-heartedly made”, as expected, Ein is still a bit lenient with her family .
It was difficult to find the words to compliment the chocolate Eval made, but one can tell that she made a solid effort in her own way, and seeing her chocolate, Ein nodded with satisfaction and smiled .
[……Well, this should be passable . You did a good job . ]
[T- Thank you!]
[Now then, after this should be packaging but before that…… let’s take a short break . ]
As soon as she said that, a fresh cup of tea was immediately prepared in front of Eval and the two of them sat down to enjoy their tea .
Thereupon, a question suddenly popped out of Eval’s mind and she asked Ein with a curious look on her face .
[Speaking of which, I know that Sis didn’t make any chocolate, but is Sis not going to give any to Kaito?]
[Unnn? I’ve already finished mine…… They’re over there . ]
[……Huh? N- No, no, w- wait a moment there, Sis…… What in the world is that……]
[They’re chocolates . ]

[N- No, that’s not what I meant…… What I’m taking is what is with that amount……]
Looking at the chocolates that Ein prepared to give to Kaito…… No, looking at the mountainous pile of wrapped boxes, Eval exclaimed .
At least, they weren’t just a hundred or two . In the kitchen of Kuromueina’s castle…… She had brought out an amount that is way too much that it seems to fill even this wide space .
[Ahh, I made “one hundred boxes” for each of “a hundred different kinds” of chocolate according to Kaito-sama’s taste . That should make it that I made exactly 10,000 chocolates . ]
[T- Ten thousand…… N- No, Sis…… As expected, isn’t that too much……]
[There’s no problem . All of them had been stored in a special magic box, so he can eat them at any time . ]
[……I- Is that so……]
Looking at Ein, who told her that she prepared 10,000 boxes of one hundred kinds of chocolate as if it was natural, Eval only nodded with a shuddering expression on her face .
Moreover, she’s surprised that all of the hundred types of chocolate are tailored to Kaito’s taste .
[……E- Even so, Sis . How do you know so much about Kaito’s taste?]
[Let’s see…… Let me explain . ]
[What is this? This “diagram”……]
[This is an analysis of Kaito-sama’s taste based on his pat meals and his behavior after his meal . Although Kaito-sama doesn’t seem to have many likes and dislikes in food, this analysis has shown that Kaito-sama tends to prefer simpler flavors . His favorite food is hamburger steak, and he dislikes green peppers . And as for his tastes for confectioneries, he prefers easy-to-eat fruity sweets rather than gaudy ones . Therefore, 20 of the prepared chocolates are made with dried fruit and fruit juice . ]
[……H- Huhh……]

As Ein explained while pointing to the diagram with a large laid-out graph, Eval was overwhelmed…… and slightly stepping away from her, she nodded .
It was unknown how Ein knew about these things, but almost all of the food Kaito has eaten in this world are listed there, with a very detailed analysis of his tastes .
[Also, as expected, the confectioneries Kaito-sama has eaten in his former world, but they’re under investigation for the moment . ]
[……Did Kaito tell all of these things to you?]
[No, but reading Kaito-sama’s mind is easy for a maid like me . ]
[I- I see…… S- So that’s how it is……]
[Yes, going back to the topic at hand…… As for the commercially-sold confectioneries, all the known ones have been recreated, and 50 of what I made were chocolate confectioneries from Kaito-sama’s world . I’ve also perfectly reproduced the packaging . ]
[……Ummm, can I ask a question?]
[Ask away . ]
While unfolding her theory of how maids are almighty as usual, she spectacularly explained to Eval the details, and although Eval’s mind was on the verge of short-circuiting, she still mustered her strength to ask a question .
[Ummm, how did you find out how these otherworld chocolates are made and how they look?]
[I strang—– No, I sincerely asked Shalltear, and she willingly taught me all about it . ]

[You seriously coerced someone for it!? Y- You would go that far……]
[But, of course . Having decided to give chocolates to Kaito-sama, I should be able to make “all” the chocolates that Kaito-sama knows is just basic etiquette for a maid…… Isn’t it so?]
[Ah, y- y- yes! It is as you say!]
[Good…… Anyway, the other 50 of the chocolates are from this world, and I got them from threa—— asking for cooperation from the patissiers around the world, and I have now learned how to make all chocolates existing in this world . ]
[You definitely said you threatened them just now!]
[It must have just been your imagination . Now then, once again, in regards to Kaito-san’s taste for chocolate, including his actions when eating……]
[Eh? I don’t really want to know about that……]
[……What did you just say?]
[N- No, please tell me all about it!]
Seeing Ein, who is so prepared to face Valentine’s Day that one would think that she was heading for war, Eval was already feeling completely terrified .
At any rate, she feels that they’re different . Held within the chocolate that Eval made was her love for her husband, Acht…… but what Ein placed within her chocolates were literally on a different level .
Understanding this, while thinking about how to escape from this terrifying room, Eval muttered in a voice that Ein couldn’t hear .
[……Kaito, hang in there . Sis’ love…… it’s outrageously heavy……]
Seeing Ein taking out yet another diagram, Eval looked as if she had given up on everything, as she continued to listen, feeling concerned about the well-being of that person who will be receiving her grandiose love .
