"...Nagisa, are you and he...?" Asagi hesitated, then finally asked the question that had been on her mind.

"I'm Roy-onii-chan's servant..." Nagisa replied with a blush.

"Servant? Roy-san, are you really not a vampire?" Asagi asked, surprised.

"Of course, I'm not a lowly vampire," Roy scoffed.

Asagi glanced at Avrora, who didn't seem to react to his words.

"Would you like to join us for lunch?" Roy asked with a smile.

"Roy-onii-chan, you didn't bring any lunch, did you? You can have mine," Nagisa said, offering him her bento box.

"Thank you, Nagisa," Roy replied, accepting it without hesitation.

"But then Nagisa won't have anything to eat!" Asagi protested.

"I-It's okay..." Nagisa said quickly, but her stomach growled, betraying her lie.

"Ah, right." Roy chuckled, pretending to have just realized.

He waved his hand, and the table was suddenly filled with a variety of delicious dishes.

The enticing aroma filled the classroom, making the other students drool and look at them with curiosity.

"It smells so good..." Asagi stammered, staring at the food in amazement.

Nagisa and Avrora also couldn't help but gulp.

Roy, amused by their reactions, chuckled.

"Don't just stare. Eat up," he said, patting Nagisa's head gently.

Avrora immediately started eating. She wasn't one for formalities.

But Nagisa hesitated.

"Roy-onii-chan, that—" She reached for her bento box, embarrassed to offer it to him now that there was so much other food.

"What's wrong? Didn't you give this to me? You can eat this," Roy said with a smile, then picked up a piece of meat that looked like a frog leg and placed it on her plate.

It was indeed frog meat from the world of Konosuba. It was quite delicious.

He then gave another piece to Asagi, who was also drooling.

"Don't be shy, Aiba-san. You can have some too."

"Thank you. But what kind of meat is this? It looks strange," Asagi said, taking a bite.

"Wow! It's delicious!" she exclaimed after tasting it.

She had never tasted such flavorful meat before.

Nagisa also took a bite and started eating with gusto.

Avrora was already stuffing her face.

The other students in the classroom, unable to resist the delicious smell, left to find their own lunch.

Even Kojou was tempted, but he stayed in the classroom for Nagisa's sake.

———

After finishing their meal, the girls were stuffed.

Roy waved his hand, and the empty plates and dishes vanished, surprising Nagisa.

"As expected of a Demon Lord. I'm almost tempted to become your servant just to enjoy such delicious food every day," Asagi sighed dreamily.

"You're welcome to become my servant. But this food wasn't created with magic. Although I could do that if I wanted to—" Roy said with a smirk.

"It wasn't created with magic? Then how did you do it?" Asagi's curiosity was piqued.

After sharing a meal together—she now considered Roy a friend and felt comfortable asking him questions.

Roy—looking at the curious Asagi and Nagisa, chuckled. "Let me explain. You probably noticed that the meat we just ate wasn't ordinary meat..."

"Yes, yes!" Nagisa nodded eagerly.

"That was the meat of a giant frog, a magical beast from another world."

"Frog meat?!" Asagi's face paled, and she covered her mouth, feeling nauseous.

Most girls wouldn't eat frogs.

The thought of having eaten frog meat made her stomach churn.

Nagisa also felt a bit queasy.

Roy chuckled.

"Don't worry, it wasn't just any frog. It was a giant frog, over three meters tall. You can think of it as magical meat," he explained.

Asagi and Nagisa felt a bit better.

'It's magical meat, it's magical meat...' Asagi repeated to herself, trying to convince herself.

Suddenly, she remembered something.

"Another world? What do you mean?" she asked, confused.

"Another world is another world," Roy replied with a shrug.

"Roy-onii-chan, did you come from another world?" Nagisa asked in surprise.

Roy was stunned. He hadn't expected her to guess it so quickly.

"Nagisa, how did you know?" he asked, gently patting her head.

'So it's true?

' Asagi stared at him in disbelief. The concept of another world was simply too fantastical.

———

"Because Roy-onii-chan said the food came from another world," Nagisa explained.

Asagi's eyes widened in realization.

If the food was from another world—then Roy must be from another world too.

Her curiosity about Roy grew.

"Do other worlds really exist?" she asked.

"Of course they do. Let me tell you about them," Roy replied with a smile.

Asagi, Nagisa, and even Avrora looked at him with anticipation.

Roy used a bit of magic to enhance his storytelling, allowing them to experience his adventures in the world of Konosuba firsthand.

They were so engrossed in his story that they didn't even notice the time passing.

The bell rang, signaling the end of lunch break.

"Oh no! We're late for class!" Nagisa exclaimed and rushed out of the classroom, running back to the middle school building with incredible speed.

Asagi, although she had snapped out of her daze, was still thinking about Roy's story and couldn't focus on her classes.

———

After school, Asagi was still distracted.

"Aiba-san, what's wrong? You seem out of it," Roy commented as they walked out of the school gate.

Asagi glared at him. It was his fault for telling such a captivating story.

"Ahem... Roy-san, you can call me by my name," she said.

"Is there something you want to say, Asagi?" Roy asked with a playful smirk.

Asagi blushed, embarrassed to admit that she wanted to hear more of his story.

"Asagi probably wants to hear more of your story—Roy-onii-chan. You haven't finished it yet, have you?" Nagisa chimed in.

She also wanted to hear more.

"No problem. Just say so. We can continue tomorrow. I have many stories to tell," Roy said with a smile.

Asagi and Nagisa exchanged excited glances.

"See you tomorrow then—Nagisa, Asagi," Roy said, waving goodbye as they parted ways at the school gate.

Roy and Avrora leisurely strolled towards Natsuki's apartment.

Suddenly, Roy's expression changed.

He looked up and saw smoke billowing from a nearby building, accompanied by the sound of explosions.

"So it's him," he muttered.

It seemed the main storyline had begun.

The one causing this commotion was Rudolf Eustach—an Apostle from Lotharingia.

He was a muscular man clad in metal armor, wielding a heavy halberd.

He had come to Itogami Island with his partner, Astarte, and they were currently rampaging through the city, attacking any Demon they encountered.

Their goal was to retrieve the stolen relic—the "Right Arm of the Saint,"—and destroy Itogami Island.

They were currently battling a vampire.

The city's alarm blared, and people fled in panic.

Just then—Roy noticed Asagi being cornered by a group of Demons in the chaos.

He immediately teleported to her side.

"Who's there?!" the Demons shouted, surprised by the sudden appearance of two people.

Asagi, who had been about to run away, gasped in surprise when she saw Roy.

"Roy-san!"

"Yo, Aiba-san, are you alright?" Roy asked with a smile.

"Roy-san, run! These are Demons!" Asagi exclaimed, grabbing his hand and trying to pull him away.

"Idiot, don't you remember? I'm a Demon Lord! These small fries can't make me run away," Roy chuckled.

Asagi's eyes widened in realization. She had forgotten that Roy wasn't human.

"Brat, hand over the girl behind you!" the Demons demanded, ready to attack.

Roy didn't even turn around. The Demons instantly vanished into thin air.

"Eh? Where did they go?" Asagi was confused.

"They probably left," Roy said with a shrug, not mentioning that he had killed them.

Asagi was curious—but she didn't press further.

———

Meanwhile, the battle between Rudolf and the vampire continued.

But the guards arrived quickly. Liana soon appeared with reinforcements.

Rudolf, seeing that they were outnumbered, decided to retreat.

Roy didn't intervene. Rudolf was still useful.

He and Astarte would infiltrate the "Keystone Gate," where Asagi worked.

Perhaps Roy could stage a heroic rescue and win Asagi's heart.

However, this matter still required Liana's cooperation.
