Chapter 43: Secret (1)

Medical report huh?

I mulled over the documents required to register Liliath as a citizen of Gilgamesh.

Oh right. I haven't explain where the frick Gilgamesh actually is huh? It's actually a fairly recent country built around 70 years ago.

It's an island like Singapore below the right-wing of Russia, Hokkaido to the left and the United States to the right. It's a raised-to-land region of the emperor seamounts in the North Pacific Ocean.

It's man-made.

Man-made you say? Yeah. A lunatic by the name Gilgamesh was the founder of this country.

One day, Gilgamesh was flying from Japan to the United States. His plane— whoosh— 'dramatic sound effect'— WHOOOSSSHH. BBBOOOOOMM.

Nope. It's more like— bloop.

The plane didn't explode. It just floated on the water. The engine apparently shut off and the system denied access to the pilot. I don't know what that means but the plane basically crashed.

And so, the survivors were out at sea.. and people were 'dying'.

Gilgamesh had a sort of earth moulding TALENT. And with that, he managed to raise a small piece of land from the sea, which was what saved the survivors.

Though.. I imagined how disgusting the sea bed was.. welp. The marine life that got caught up in Gilgamesh's TALENT became free food. And there has got to be someone in the group with a fire magic TALENT or water purification TALENT, so everyone survived until a rescue team arrived a month later.

That small land Gilgamesh created— became the spark that started the country, Gilgamesh, we all know and loved today. Gilgamesh spent the rest of his life raising the sea bed of the emperor seamounts— that's why it no longer exists today, replaced by this country.

Other details like how the government infrastructure was developed in such a short span of time after the Second World War remains a mystery.

My grandparents were converted Gilgamesh citizens, not natives.

There were no natives to begin with..

Gilgamesh is one of the most ridiculous country built till date. Everything is.. artificial. Like heck, even the land vegetation we have had to be imported from some other countries.

I'm living a dream— Gilgamesh's dream. He never had the chance to experience this country he built— my condolences..

Eh, wait. Where was I? Oh yeah: Medical report.

I wonder if demon lords are scared of needles?

The car pulled up into a parking lot and went into Prune's Restaurant– that's the actual name of the eatery by the way.

We were guided to a private room away from the main hall.

A large round table and cushioned seats, tablewares were prepared for each person. Chopsticks and spoons— no fork and knives though.

I glanced at Liliath. She averted my gaze.

What's up with that?

I sat down— Liliath to the left, my father to the right. My father to the left of my mother and Liliath to the right of Novelle.

Hm.. this is a weird getup. Why is everyone sitting so close together?

Something is suspicious. My father usually sits opposite of me.

"Do your best Liliath," My mother cheered.

Liliath nodded with a serious expression.

"You can do it Noel. As a father, I am proud that you got yourself a girl at this age." My father whispered this into my ear with a smirk.

"And?" I raised an eyebrow.

"You'll see, You'll see.."

Shit. Something scary is about to happen isn't it?

The waiter— Prune, came over with the menu. Those wolf ears piqued my father's interest. If he hadn't practiced self-restraint, I sure he would've asked some pretty weird stuff like.. can I do your ears or bushy tail?

My father wasn't around when Prune got her TALENT so it was a surprise to him.

And— I'm sad to inform you of this but Prune wasn't wearing some maid costume, just normal clothes, don't let your expectations run to high peeps.

Liliath will be choosing a dish. Last time, it was all on mom since she knew the regular dishes. Liliath was still new to the food here.

  The choice she made was.. a weird dumpling.. Is that... ghost pepper sauce?!

No.. fuck..

"Are you sure? This might be very spicy, you know?" My mom warned.

"I don't think you should go for this." Prune advised her too.

Hm.. Prune is no longer scared of Liliath? What's up with that? It's good and all but it doesn't make sense. Liliath generates an aura that scares other creatures away right? So how come it's no longer affecting Prune?

"Spicy? What's that?" Liliath asked.

Ah seriously? Liliath doesn't know spicy? WHHHUUUTT?! And she's aiming straight for the boss?!

Liliath, you shouldn't order that.. please.. you will die.. or at least feel like dying.. trust me..

I retorted in my mind. And fortunately, she changed her mind

Liliath chose some other tofu instead.

"This pudding— did I say something wrong?" Liliath pointed at the dish... noticing the weird look on Prune's face as she said.

"N-nothing. That's tofu."

"Tofu? The legendary tofu dish?!"

Tofu is legendary.. I learnt something new today.

"Uh.. yeah.." Prune took two steps backwards.

"Then could you please?"

"Could you please.. what do you mean?"

"This princess here plays arounds with words a lot.. she basically means: yes add that to the menu," my father said.

"Hah?" um.. give her a second to process it all, um.. even I had trouble catching on to what Liliath was trying to say.

"Could it be that my speech is weird?" Liliath asked.

"I think it's unique. Just go with it, no problems there," my father shrugged.

"It makes you feel more like a princess.. though, big sister really is a Princess though.." the little devil commented.

"There's a lot I don't know hah..." Prune said in a weak voice, jotting down Liliath's order.

The drinks arrived— Liliath opted for iced tea.. a tea wizard indeed.

While waiting, my father took a sauce plate, added chilly, garlic and spices to create a mix. Liliath looked at it with interest.

"Ah? You've never seen this? It's called self-service," my father said, pouring the soy sauce.

"I didn't see this the last time I came?"

"That's because only my husband eats the chillies," My mom said.

"Chillies?"

"Heh?" My father looked at Liliath, then at me in astonishment.

What? Now you know how much of an out-of-place goldfish Liliath is now?

"You should try some," my father smirked.

"Then I'll gladly accept."

"Liliath.. you've never eaten anything spicy.. are you sure? I don't recommend it.."

"Is there anything wrong?"

"Noel, you can't be too overprotective can you now?" My mom laughed.

Seriously? Right. I suppose I should let Liliath try a bunch of different things in this world instead of telling her to not do this or that.

My father mixed another sauce plate worth of soy sauce, chilli and spices— without garlic— and passed it to Liliath.

Liliath was about to dip her chopsticks and have a taste when my father stopped her saying that it should be eaten together with the meal.

The dishes came in accordance. Only then did we started the meal.
