Episode 59

 

It happened in an instant.

 

Yes, it all unfolded in the blink of an eye.

 

‘What on earth is going on…?’

 

I had been talking with Hyu in the backyard for a moment.

 

Hyu had said he finished preparing the soil and asked how to plant the seeds, which led to some serious contemplation.

 

But suddenly, loud noises came from the cafe.

 

At first, I thought I might have misheard and started to go back to what I was doing.

 

But the loud noises didn’t stop.

 

Sensing something was wrong, I immediately went into the cafe. In the kitchen, Ninbuki was diligently processing orders.

 

But the prepared drinks weren’t being served at all. I instinctively grabbed a cup of freshly made coffee and headed to the hall.

 

And I was confronted with it.

 

‘No, this is insane…’

 

Some nasty-tempered human was berating our precious employee!

 

He was even trying to make him kneel.

 

‘Crazy… There are troublesome customers in this world too?

 

Why did they implement this so well?’

 

I immediately stepped forward.

 

I knew all too well how powerless an employee becomes when faced with a troublesome customer. I also knew very well how heartbreaking and unfair it feels when the boss takes the customer’s side at such times.

 

‘This kind of thing needs to be nipped in the bud from the start.

 

If word gets out that we accept everything, the cafe will be ruined.

 

Who would come as a customer to a cafe where such troublesome customers show up?’

 

I immediately stood in front of Tonik and issued an order to leave.

 

And then it happened.

 

‘He snatched the coffee cup from my hand and threw it?

 

This guy is completely insane!’

 

This isn’t even a troublesome customer. He’s just a criminal.

 

I hurriedly checked on Tonik.

 

He was hunched over, trembling. It wasn’t from cold.

 

They say our bodies feel cold when something is too hot. He had taken the steaming hot coffee directly on his back…

 

‘Ah, this isn’t the time for that.’

 

I urgently grabbed Tonik’s shoulders to straighten his upper body. Then I quickly started removing his shirt.

 

“You need to take this off. If you leave it on, the burn will get worse!”

 

“…Ugh.”

 

“…Oh no.”

 

Tonik just groaned with his eyes tightly shut. He seemed to be in shock from the sudden trauma.

 

I moved my hands even more urgently and finally.

 

Riiip! Pop pop!

 

“Sorry, I’ll buy you new clothes later.”

 

I tore off all of Tonik’s shirt. The torn buttons rolled on the floor.

 

Before they could settle on the ground, I succeeded in removing all of Tonik’s upper clothing.

 

Then I immediately checked his back.

 

“…This is serious.”

 

His back was completely red. It looked even redder because I couldn’t remove the clothes right away.

 

“Just bear with it a little. I’ll just do first aid and… call a doctor or something right away…”

 

I hurriedly looked around. I spotted a water bottle that was always kept on the table near the entryway.

 

I immediately grabbed the water bottle and poured water over Tonik’s back.

 

‘Ice would be dangerous at a time like this. He might get frostbite.

 

Cold ice would actually feel hot on his skin.’

 

Pouring out all the water from the bottle wasn’t enough. It would be better to take him to the kitchen and have him under running water.

 

However.

 

“Ha! Making such a fuss over a mere person! Just because he got splashed with a cup of coffee. More importantly, I need to punish you too for daring to give me orders!”

 

The crazy bastard in front of me didn’t seem like he would allow that. I was about to open my mouth while gritting my teeth.

 

Just then,

 

“Lailah.”

 

“…Millen!”

 

At that moment, Millen appeared.

 

He moved his eyes to assess the situation. Ha. After sighing, he gently placed his hand on my head.

 

“First, take Tonik away. As for first aid… I don’t think I need to tell you, so move.”

 

“…Understood, Millen.”

 

“Leave the carrying to Fox.”

 

He gestured behind me. I heard Eldora’s innocent voice saying ‘Leave it to me~!’ from behind.

 

I quickly nodded and moved. I had Eldora carry Tonik and went straight into the kitchen.

 

While Eldora sat Tonik in the middle of the kitchen, I connected a hose to the faucet.

 

I turned on lukewarm water and sprayed it directly on Tonik’s back.

 

Water sprayed onto his back, which was still glowing red.

 

About ten minutes passed like that?

 

“…Ah.”

 

Tonik finally seemed to come to his senses and moved his lips. He seemed to finally notice the water being sprayed on his back.

 

“…Huh?”

 

“Tonik, are you okay now? I had to remove your clothes for first aid.”

 

“Ah, I’m… fine. Are you alright, boss?”

 

“…Thanks to you, I’m perfectly fine.”

 

“That’s a relief. As long as you weren’t hurt, boss. Isn’t my job to serve you, boss?”

 

Tonik seemed to have fully regained his senses as he smiled with his eyes.

 

He emphasized once more that protecting a beautiful lady was his duty.

 

Perhaps he noticed that I was feeling sorry.

 

‘…If only he wouldn’t say things like that.’

 

Now I can’t even apologize properly.

 

I hung my head low and then raised it.

 

“Stay under the water for about ten more minutes. After the heat subsides, let’s go to a physician…”

 

“I’ll do as you command, boss.”

 

“…Ha, I’m sorry.”

 

“I’m the one who should be sorry. Because I couldn’t handle the customer properly…”

 

He smiled good-naturedly but then dropped his shoulders. He seemed to feel like it was all his fault that the angry customer threw the coffee.

 

I frowned and placed my hand on Tonik’s shoulder.

 

“No, that wasn’t a customer. He was just a crazy bastard. Next time, don’t hesitate and just throw them out immediately.”

 

“But that person was a nobleman.”

 

“Just because he’s a nobleman, does that mean he can act violently like that? Is it okay to hurt people? I can’t tolerate it.”

 

I absolutely can’t.

 

I don’t want to deal with power harassment or troublesome customers even in this game.

 

Most of all, I hate seeing my employees put in such unreasonable situations.

 

‘I know that feeling. I’ve experienced it myself. I know how disgusting it feels, don’t I?

 

Ha, crazy game. It’s really making me lose my mind.’

 

I smiled brightly while gritting my teeth. Suddenly, Tonik and Eldora both flinched and trembled.

 

“Are you cold?”

 

“N-no…”

 

“It’s not cold, it’s scary~!”

 

“…I see.”

 

I turned my head sharply to glare outside the kitchen. That angry customer seemed to still be there.

 

‘Will this become a trauma?’

 

I carefully examined Tonik. I couldn’t find any fear on his face.

 

What’s this? I was puzzled, but it seemed necessary to remove the cause for now.

 

I turned off the water and examined Tonik’s back.

 

His back looked much less red. I was worried because I was a bit late taking off his clothes, but fortunately it was fine.

 

Still, it seemed like I should apply some ointment, so I got up from my spot.

 

“I’ll bring you some clothes. Just wait here for now.”

 

“I’ll bring them~! Lailah is busy right now.”

 

“Eldora will?”

 

“Or should I give you my clothes? I have lots of clothes~!”

 

Eldora put her hand into thin air and started pulling out various things.

 

There was a variety, from ordinary clothes to maid outfits, aprons, and butler uniforms.

 

“Eldora, when did you start selling clothes too? I thought Eldora only sold food ingredients…”

 

“I bought these one by one while traveling around to wear~! I can’t go around naked. Hmm, if Lailah wants, I could… go around naked~!”

 

“…Please keep them on.”

 

“Woof!”

 

Eldora smiled brightly and gave Tonik a loose-fitting shirt and pants. His pants were also wet and needed to be changed.

 

Tonik held the clothes and looked at me awkwardly.

 

“Ah.”

 

“…”

 

“Then get dressed and come out. I’ll go check on Millen.”

 

I hurriedly left the kitchen and immediately looked toward the entryway.

 

However, only Millen was standing there. Sensing my approach, Millen turned around.

 

“I sent him away appropriately. I didn’t like that kind of guy setting foot in this place.”

 

“Good job, Millen. But did he leave obediently?”

 

“Ah… well, who would dare defy me.”

 

“…Ah.”

 

Millen chuckled and patted my shoulder.

 

“Then I’ll take Tonik to see a doctor.”

 

“You’re going, Millen?”

 

“At times like this, it’s not good for the owner to leave.”

 

“Ah, that’s true…”

 

I nodded. Since I needed to calm the startled customers, it was right for me to watch the hall.

 

“Then I’ll be back.”

 

“Yes.”

 

So Millen took Tonik and headed to the Capital City.

 

Fortunately, nothing else happened after that.

 

So I thought he had been properly scared by Millen and ran away.

 

However.

 

“Ahem! Why is the service here like this?”

 

Starting the next day, troublesome customers began appearing in droves.

 

As if someone had orchestrated it!
