“WOW?!” Jennifer-chan shouted.
“Welcome to Bleu’s domain,” Nine said.
“Welcome to Bleu’s domain,” Bleu said.
An airport announcement chime rang, “Welcome to Bleu’s supermarket,” the speakers echoed with Unknown’s voice. The chime rang again to cite the end of his announcement.
“Um..”
I’m having a hard time wrapping around what the two were trying to do here. This is Bleu’s domain? I know it’s the domain but isn’t this just an imitation of a modern day super market? Why here of all places?
And did we wake up not tired this time?!
“Interesting,” Liliath looked around, sending curious glances everywhere.
“Where is this..” Rin asked in astonishment.
This would be the first time Rin and Jennifer-chan had visited Bleu’s Domain. I question if it’s even alright to bring Jennifer-chan over.
I get that she asked about Bleu’s domain yesterday after a slip of a tongue, but I didn’t think Nine would go so far as to paste [Bleu’s Blessing] into her title column.
“It’s been a while.. Bleu, these can be eaten right?” Prune went over to the paper stand stacked full of chocolate bars.
“Feel free to eat them. All are edible-- not inedible food,” Bleu turned to Nine.
“Let’s go, I have something you must try,” Liliath tugged on Rin’s clothing.
“That item is over at the dry foods section,” Bleu said.
“Thank you for the guidance,” Liliath dragged Rin with her.
Somehow.. just somehow I feel like there’s something a little wrong with this..
I turned to Nine and saw him open a bubblegum canister, tossing a few pieces in his mouth. He asked Jennifer-chan if she wanted some.
“Bleu, this’ll be the only time I bring Jenn-chan over alright?” Nine said.
“Up to you. There are no problems accommodating a few more.”
“The only time?” Jennifer said in-between the sounds of chewing.
“Yup. Normally we spend our time here training. So it’s kinda boring..”
“That’s a lie,” Bleu chided.
“Ehh..”
Jennifer-chan tilted her head.
As Nine started to blow bubbles with the gum, I set off elsewhere.
Liliath was with Rin-- I’m not too sure if she’s going to teach Rin about instant noodles or instant tea but that isn’t something I’m really worried about.
Which leaves Prune. She was exploring the cold storage section while holding an extra bar of chocolate in hand.
I should probably pick a snack from here shouldn’t I? It’s not like it’s going to affect my body anyways.
It’s been a while since I ate ice cream-- I went over to the frozen foods section.
“O-Oh.. so that is the sound I heard. What a surprise..”
“I think we forgot about you again,” Eh.. I’m sorry.
This person in question staring at the tub of ice cream inside the large refrigerator was Laura, the high elf.
“What is this place?”
“This is what the people from the modern world, or the heroes world refer to as a supermarket. This is a big one though. Normally, there would be a lot of people looking for items to buy. But since this is just a replica, feel free to take anything you want.”
“A supermarket? There’s a lot of curious items in here.. is it possible to bring it over to the real world?”
I was about to say no when a brain wave hit me.
I took the nearby cookie packet and pushed it into the inventory..
Fuck. It is possible to bring it to the real world! Remember how we stole the tea cup and teapot from this domain? Yeah. No shit!
“Do you.. nevermind. What do you want? I pass it over to you when I meet you in the real world.. and don’t let Bleu know about this.”
“O-Oh.. so this isn’t taboo?”
“I don’t think so..”
And so I grabbed practically all the ice cream in the store and shoved it in the inventory. Not the shared one, but my own. So we have a crazy variety ranging from tub ice cream to ice-cream sticks. Most of which she wanted to introduce to Jiwon.
In the real world, Laura and co. was already in Erudite Kingdom. Which means that it wouldn’t be long before we bump into each other.
Laura and I continued exploring the aisle while nibbling on a piece of ice cream sandwich.
“How are you and your boyfriend. Jiwon-san,”
“My boyfriend?” Her ears twitched.
“Like.. the goddess Moirae isn’t taking over your spot or something..” I should ask a more practical question.. no. Even if I asked: what do you think about starting a harem; she would most probably just reply: that’s the norm of this world.
“I’m taking appropriate measures to assure Oppa looks at me and only me,”
“Great to hear.” Not great to hear. I wonder if that’s what my future looks like?
“R-Right..”
We furthered down a few aisles. I’m taking whatever catches my eyes. The shelves are being emptied out.. I’m sure Bleu won’t come here right?
“Yogurt.”
“Yeohgirt?”
I stored the half eaten ice cream into the inventory because I was running out of hand space and started shoving another few tubs of yogurt into my inventory. I was slightly worried how the bacteria contained inside this could affect the real world-- because there’s a lack of bacteria in that world. But I’m sure it’s alright right?
What else..
We don’t need cheese cuz there’s a lot out in the market.
Maybe snacks. Let’s go to that aisle.
“Laura, quick question. Or, more like, just a note. Right now, Rin is here with us.”
“Rin? As in?”
“Rinalanashina. Liliath wanted to prevent her from falling into the hands of Javiel.”
“I see.. that’s a good move.”
“And here’s the real question. What if I told you I’m a demon lord?”
Laura fell behind as I continued a few steps. I turned to her.
“Y-You’re.. what?”
“I’m a demon lord. From another world.”
I saw a conflicted expression on her face.
“Of course. I’m not here to take over the world. I’m just trying to find a way to get back home-- with Liliath and Prune– and Nine.”
“What is your objective..”

Are we talking about the grand scheme of things here? I thought I already told you.
“Nevermind. If that’s the case then we’ll try our best to avoid each other. I don’t know how much you’ll trust us on this but we’re just a bunch of naive kids that got tossed into an isekai. We didn’t come here to rule the world or anything like that. Even trying to kill something is a pain.”
I looked at Laura. She still had that conflicted expression.
“I guess this is to be expected,” I murmured.
“You were the one tugging the strings.. all along?”
“What do you mean?”
“In the first life..”
“We didn’t exist back then.”
“Then.. how could a single entity possess so much power..”
“Do you know about Javiel’s stats?”
“I can’t believe it.. I’m actually allying with a demon lord.. what would Oppa think..”
“It’s alright if you don’t want to.. I mean. Nine and Prund aren’t demon lords so.. I’ll be leaving.”
I’ll leave her some time to process all of this. I guess I should stock up on potato chips and the likes. I wonder if Liliath, Prune or Nine had found out about this loophole?
Oh wait.. I shouldn’t be thinking so openly. What if Bleu hears this?
I found Prune at the snacks aisle.
She popped a tube and started to dig into it.
I stifled a laugh.
“Here,” She held it out to me.
“Thanks,” I took a few chips.
I’ll store this that-- and that too..
Prune left this place in search of new delicacies I guess… what’s there new in a supermarket anyways? Frozen oysters?
“What is that?” for some reason Laura decided to follow me.
“Here, have some.”
She, timidly reached over and took a piece.
Crunch. She ate it. A funky expression on her face.
“Good right?”
“Did you take these too?”
“I took a few. I think Jiwon-san would cry over these..”
“Why,” she interjected my words.
“Why? I’m sure its been a while since he last ate these”
“You.. being so kind, even though it is sure to be a scheme. We’re being used..”
Ah.. what the hell is this. She’s constantly twisting my good will!
“Fine. If you think that’s what I’m doing then yes, cooperating with Jiwon-san would be nice because he and Javiel are enemies right? It’ll be great if he could deal with that demon, so that Liliath doesn’t meet him.”
“You and Liliath. What is your relationship?”
“We’re already bound to each other. She had a bad past with Javiel.. to put it simply. I don’t know how I should go into detail about what happened but what you need to know is that Liliath came over to my world, stayed a few.. stayed for an autumn and then now we’re in this world to stay for winter.”
Laura took some time to ponder, shoving the last bit of ice cream sandwich into her mouth.
“I still don’t trust you.”
“It’s understandable..”
Something really bad must have happened before the regression huh? That’s all I can say.
“Anything else you feel like you’d want to bring over?”
“How about..”
And so we went around the place for items. I also took a few raw items, soy sauce bottles, cooking oil, condiments, sauces, spices, and the likes for Prune’s cooking.
I also took some tea packets from when Liliath wasn’t looking.
Laura got a good peek at Rin, she testified that it was the same Rin from her previous life. Her comment was that she looked comparatively docile to that of her first life. No comments there.
“Pure white bread in this manner..”
“Maybe he’d like some of this too..”
“I heard white bread was a thing where he came from. Is this limited to meat?”
“No, there are other types like red bean paste or beef. It depends.”
We’re eating Char Siew Bao. Steamed white bread with meat fillings in the middle.
I’m starting to question why I’m grabbing so much stuff for the Regressor. It’s not like I’m going to become besties with him anyways.
“Here you are,” Liliath called out.
“Yep. So how was it?”
“It was fun,” Liliath tugged at Rin.. who looked dead. Did Liliath feed her something wrong, her complexion was quite literally: pale as paper.
“Were you able to make tea? There’s a hot water stand there with paper cups.”
“Is that so?” Liliath turned to look at the machine.
“Help..” Rin pleaded.
“Heh.. Liliath are you not pushing Rin too much..”
“Is that so? Do you want to rest?”
Rin nodded, with a bitter smile.
“Alright. Laura, take care of Rin for a bit.”
“Me? This demon lord?” Laura’s eyes flinched.
Liliath nodded, released Rin and hooked an arm around mine.
“Hey Liliath you..”
“To spend time accompanying both spouses is a duty of mine, let's go!”
“H-Hey!”
Liliath! Wrong direction! Wrong direction! That’s where they hide the lubricants and mechanical contraceptives!
And that was the story of how I filled half-a-supermarket worth of snacks into my inventory.
