Chapter 92: As expected, my life in a human world is wrong
Riser brought the two to the nearby family restaurant and then looked at the two strange young women in front of them.
"Come on. You can order whatever you want."
"Huh? Is that okay?"
"Won't we trouble you?"
If it was facing the protagonist, Issei Hyoudo, they might not have hesitated to order many foods and empty the wallets of Issei.
Moreover, Issei was a devil, so they didn't feel guilty when they tried to empty his wallet as they were exorcists.
However, Riser was different since they were strangers.
Riser was just someone who just wanted to donate food to the servants of God.
Still, he wondered what their reaction would be when they knew he was a devil, though.
Nevertheless, it was also due to this lack of information that they thought that they should order one food and one beverage, but then again, with all the delicious foods drawn on the book menu, it was hard for them to decide which they should order.
With their salivate mouths and gulping sounds, their eyes were like an eagle, hunting for delicious prey carefully.
Yet, could they be blamed?
They had lost their money due to mishaps and hadn't eaten for a while.
Nevertheless, Riser knew that they felt reserved as he had helped them, so he ordered a lot of food for them.
"Yes, this steak, gratin, spaghetti..."
As he listed the foods one by one, the two young women were in a daze at his calm and mature demeanor.
What was this?
Did they meet a young master?
Nevertheless, they were glad since they didn't need to worry about their empty stomachs.
"What's wrong?"
Riser asked when the two were staring at him.
"No... but is it okay for you to order that much?"
"Yes, those foods aren't cheap."
The price of the food was definitely the reason why they hesitated to choose which foods they wanted to order. They were the servants of God, so they lived frugally so that they wouldn't be in sin.
Frankly, Riser was glad that he became a devil, or else he was afraid that he might need to throw away his worldly desires.
Still, if he was asked whether he could throw away his worldly desires, was such a thing possible?
No way.
Riser was sure that if he was reincarnated as the exorcist or part of the church, there was no doubt he would become a heretic in the eyes of others.
"Now that you mention it, I seem to order a lot of them, but all the foods seem so delicious that I can't help but order them."
"I understand."
"That's understandable."
Still, he had confirmed that they were idiots.
Yet, he also wasn't surprised since he could tell they should spend most of their time with their job to slay an evil being or training.
With such a busy time and a limited workforce in the church, how could they even find time to study at school?
So, it was normal for them to be a little slow on their heads.
Still, his reaction meant a different thing in their eyes since they felt like he couldn't believe them.
"Ah, you don't believe us, right?"
"How about I show you the might of this sword?"
The two were ready to show proof that they were exorcists!
"Enough! Enough!"
Riser was wondering why he was caught in the troublesome matter one after another.
---
"You see? In this country, it is forbidden to bring such a dangerous weapon outside like that. You might be affiliated with the church and an exorcist, but normal people and the police won't think of you like that. Do you want to be detained and enter jail? Do you want the church you are affiliated with to have a bad reputation due to your actions?"
"...we're sorry." 2x
The two young women lowered their heads as they let themselves be reprimanded by him. Even though he reprimanded them, they could tell that he meant well, especially when his tone was neither high nor low, so as not to make people irritated, yet at the same time, also made them understand how idiotic their action was.
If they faced a devil, then it might be okay to be reckless, but they were facing a human.
Riser wanted to say something again, but then he stopped.
After all, as a devil, why should he try to educate the servants of God?
Did he wish for them to become better exorcists or something?
Suddenly, he felt speechless and had an urge to smoke, so he lit up his cigarette and smoked it to calm himself.
Still watching him, who suddenly smoked in front of them, the two of them couldn't help but remind him.
"Hey, smoking is bad, you know?"
"You should stop while you can."
"It helps me to relax from stress."
"Huh? Are you stressed because of something?"
"..."
Riser stared at the chestnut-haired girl blankly, causing her to become flustered. Still, he didn't continue to smoke and put down his cigarette on the nearby ashtray while thinking that this should be the last problem he had encountered, right?
Yet, strangely enough, he didn't have enough confidence to say that.
Still watching him turn off his cigarette, the two nodded, satisfied as they thought they should help him solve his problem, and continued to pray for his well-being to the Lord.
"Ah, God, please help this gentleman to solve all of his problems!"
"Amen!"
"..."
Yet, what they didn't know was that their prayer gave nothing but just to add more of a headache to him.
