Aahh, I want my own shop!

I had grumbled this to everybody earlier. And when I did, that Or suddenly said Please leave it to me, before disappearing somewhere. At the time, I thought it was just more chuunibyou

Today, Or told me something completely insane. Shockingly, he had prepared a shop for me! He did it so casually like he went to fetch me something from the convenience store, but when he came back it was a shop

Or, could it be that youre actually from a wealthy family?

While I was in shock, Or told me, This is the Evil God Army Base, before leading me inside. Me, Timu, and the other EGA members entered the shop like he told us to.

When I headed inside

Oohh! This is amazing!

First of all, the interiors

The decor was clean and pleasant, and didnt seem gaudy. Having a look at the tables and chairs, they were simple but natural-looking. Or rather, really calming. Just like the types of furnishings we liked in Japan.

Then I looked at all the cooking utensils, and all of them were amazing! My expert eye told me that every one of them was top class.

Amazing. Its so amazing. The knives, the saucepans, all of them are like national treasures.

This one knife in particular. When I held it in my hand, it outshone my beloved knife so, so badly. Just this one knife alone is like a fortune. Haha, to a trained eye, the furnishings in this place are all top class. It wouldnt lose at all to an established high-class shop. Or rather, isnt it possible that you could call it the best in the city?

Or, t-, this is

Ortissio! Why is this shop so plain! It is worse than a dog kennel!

It is exactly as Camilla-sama says. This is the Evil God Army Base? Do not test us with your jokes! Perhaps execution truly is the bes

N-, nono, Camilla-sama, Commander Nielsen, you misunderstand. This is only a camoflage in order to fool the enemy. The true base is this way.

In a fluster, Or pointed further into the shop. Apparently there was a staircase that led underground.

W-, What the heck? Theres even more of this shop?

Just this much is amazing already. To be hiding something even more amazing is

Or cant just be from some wealthy family. Maybe hes like the third son of some really powerful noble clan?

I-, Its possible

With his words and actions so far, according to my profiling hes definitely the rich boy of some powerful family.

Hahh~ This is shocking. But it makes sense. Without rich parents, theres no way you could live this way unemployed. Anyway, lets see how much this rich boy has prepared for us. Im a little taken aback, but lets head in.

We did as Or asked and headed down the stairs.

And then

UOHHHHHHH! S-, SO, SO HUUUUUUGEEEEE!

What I found downstairs was a veritable labyrinth.

I-, Is this some dungeon?

Its huge, and not only that, its filled with rooms. I-, It cant be that this is some hidden villa that his family owns? A hidden villa for the nobles to take shelter in during attacks on the Capital. If you consider that his family is one of the most powerful, then its quite possible.

Aaahh, Or, you idiot! If you play around in a place like this, your dad is going to get angry at you, okay!?

Or, t-, this is

Hmph. I suppose the size gets a passing mark But the furnishings are lower than low.

It is exactly as Camilla-sama says. Ortissio, I question your loyalty. It does not even reach the foot of the palace in Demon Capital Benz.

M-My deepest apologies. I had only awakened recently, and do not yet have the capital.

Enough with your excuses. Truly, execution must be

Aaahh, stop with the chuunibyou! Be quiet for a moment.

Y-, Yes.

Honestly, Timu and Pervert(Nielsen) dont get it at all. They dont even get a little just how much this place is worth. Honestly, you chuunibyou are all so hard to deal with.

Anyway, lets sort things out in my mind.

Or came along with an insane present.

Can I accept this?

Since Or and his friends attacked me once, I thought to accept some capital from them as an apology fee. Of course, the plan was to pay the money back once the shop got moving, and they didnt get thrown into jail either, so I thought that it was all well and good but

I-, Isnt this way too much? I cant pay this back, or rather, if I broke a single dish, I wouldnt be able to break even.

Hm~mm, what should I do?

While I was wracking my brains, I wandered about this massive underground empire. And then I noticed a dazzling shine from one of the rooms.

Whats inside this room?

I walked in without a care to see.

And what I found

UOOHHHHHHH! D-, DAZZLING! ITS TOO DAZZLING!!

W-, What the heck. Gold nuggets, emeralds, rubies, all sorts of treasures strewn about the place. Did even the pirates of the Carribean have this much treasure?

Haha, so it existed. Wan Piece

Ah-, Tilea-sama, this is the Evil God Armys treasury. My sincere apologies. We have not yet gathered very much yet.

We can see that! Ortissio, the state of this treasury is absolutely wretched! It cannot even compare to what we had in the Demon Capital! Neither its quality nor quantity!

Ortissio, this will damage the dignity of the Evil God Army. Throw out this junk and collect something good!

M-, My deepest apologies. On this occasion, there was the attack on the capital, and nothing truly good is being traded across the world. Please, please give me more time.

Enough. If you are going to embarrass Oneesama by forcing to her to live in this shack Ortissio, I trust you understand?

H-Hii, I-I understand. I will gather some treasure no matter what.

Ortissio desperately apologised as he bowed.

This merciless extortion

Isnt this bullying?

But well, I can understand why theyd want to bully him. Hes a sex offender, after all. In particular, since he tried to turn his fangs on Timus sister as well, theyll probably be hating on him for a while. But you know, Or might be this type of guy, but his parents are probably amazing, you know? If you keep cornering Or like this

Wahhh, everybody is bullyinggg meeee! Papa, I beg you, please do something!

What? Which fiend dares to bully my cute son! Hang them all immediately.

Sniff, thank you, Papa. Im so heartbroken. Could I have another villa?

There, there. Ill give you anything, so just tell me.

Its obvious that something like this is going to happen. I cant let Or use his ultimate technique, Papa, I beg you.

Aah~ You guys, thats enough.

H-, However, Ortissio has truly been doing too shoddy a job.

Its fine, its fine. Or, youve set up a pretty decent hideout, havent you. I like it.

T-, Tilea-sama, w-, what priceless words for the likes of me

Or started tearing up. Mn. Looks like I stopped him from flipping out.

Hahh~ My stomach is hurting. Looks like Ill have more troubles. But Or keeps urging me. Should I just use this place? But Ors parents might not know about this

Or, is it okay for us to use this place? Do you have permission from your parents?

Hah I do not quite understand your words, Tilea-sama, but I prepared this place in secret. Leaving the camoflage shop aside, nobody except essential personnel are aware of this underground base. It should be fine to use this place. Also, as for my parents I am Camilla-samas kin, and thus have no parents. If I had to name one, I suppose it might be Mamira-sama, Camillas esteemed mother who

Y-, YOURE SAYING THIS STUFF TOOOOOOO!?

GUHAH-!

Before I knew it, I had smacked the back of his head. Honestly, Or, Pervert(Nielsen), they all say the same stuff. Is it some requirement for you guys to try and become my siblings!?

Hahh, Im exhausted. But well, if hes going on about essential personnel or whatever, I guess hes gotten permission.

Probably went something like

Papa, can I play in that big villa or ours?

Geez. Youre such a spoilt. Dont mess it up, okay?

Yayy! Im going to call all my friends! Can I fit five thousand friends in?

Now, now, there are other villas too. Keep it to three thousand, okay?

What a useless son

Anyway, I guess uh, it all worked out pretty good. I have the feeling that some annoying stuff is going to happen, but at least Ive got a shop now. Its a bit weird that Or is the investor and owner though.
