Isekai Restuarant (Rewrite)

Chapter 52: Chapter 13: Part 4



- Silas -

Tanya Degurchaff didn't want to go back to her world so I decided to give her a place to stay. We even got to know her story in detail.

Tanya was apparently someone at a high level in a respected company in her previous life. She jumped at the fact that she could stay in a modern world and decided to work for me.

She was in fact more than happy to jump from her previous world which was drowned in war because that asshole being wanted to make her a so-called believer.

I mean, talk about taking things too far.

"You can stay here or I can arrange for a new residence for you soon if you want." I told her and she agreed.

By the end of the day, we had decided to go forward with the business plan for the Manga and Light Novel Business.

We had even decided the name of the company.

The Crossroads Publications.

The next day, Ainz came first but he wasn't alone.

Behind him were two girls.

"Silas. These are Yuri Alpha and Narberal Gamma. They will be serving you and assisting you with your new business.

The two bowed respectively in front of me.

"It is our honour to serve Silas-sama." They said together.

I even got to know some things about them.

For example, they aren't exactly humans despite their looks.

Ainz had told me already that his guild was specifically for non-human characters so I should have expected this.

Yuri is a Dullahan while Narberal is a Doppelganger.

Coming to the two maids, they were both absolutely professional.

Yuri Alpha was a beauty with an intelligent look. She wore black lensless glasses and a blue-collar around her neck, most likely to keep her head attached to her body since she was a Dullahan. She wore her hair tied into a low-cropped bun at the back of her head and a maid uniform.

On the other hand, Narberal Gamma could only be described as an elegant, snow-white skinned, black-pony tailed beauty. She also wore a maid uniform.

I had to say, Ainz's guild members had great taste.

Ainz was behaving in his role play manner until he was inside his private room.

"Let me introduce you to the rest of the staff here. You all can talk and know more about my world. You will need to know the background of the world to start a business first."

They nodded and I took them to Lavinia.

I will have to find a way to get fake identities for them as well.

Damn, this was indeed not easy.

Maybe Lavinia would know something since she was more used to dealing with the Supernatural World?

All this had to be put on the side as it was time for the guests to arrive.

The usual guests like Naruto, Kanna and Miu and Touma came first for their daily bentos. Naruto and Kanna were in the same school now and it seems that Kanna was actually enjoying her time at her new home.

Cid was next.

He apparently had a day off at school today.

Cid on the other hand went and played with Ainz and the rest.

After they left, two new guests entered the Restaurant.

One of them was a young elf with long golden-blonde hair and blue eyes. Her general appearance could only be described as breathtakingly beautiful.

The second one was actually a girl with animal ears and even a tail. Was she a youkai?

This was the first time I had seen one.

She had black hair, canine ears and a fluffy tail. She sported purple eyes with vertical slit pupils.

Tohru was the first to greet them.

"Welcome Guests. What would you like to eat?" She asked politely.

In all these months, Tohru had gotten very good at this waitress business.

The two girls looked at Tohru, surprised for a few moments before taking a seat and taking a look at the menu.

- Alpha -

"Hey hey Alpha. I don't recognise most of the dishes from the menu. Do you know what these are?" Delta asked, after trying to decide what to eat.

Alpha on the other hand was looking at the menu which was written in a language she was not expecting to encounter.

Wasn't this the language Shadow had taught them?

In fact, many of the dishes here were the ones Shadow had told them about.

What exactly is this place which can make these things?

Was it another organisation Shadow had started behind their backs?

Were they not doing their duty adequately enough for him to take such measures?

Several thoughts went through her mind in one moment before she reigned them in.

No.

It was still too early to say anything.

She needed to investigate more.

"Two orders of Chicken Ramen." She ordered and began observing everything in detail.

"Certainly." The girl bowed and left to relay their orders to the chef.

While their order was prepared, she looked around trying to observe every person in the Restaurant closely while being as discreet as possible.

Suddenly she heard a voice beside her. "Are you looking for something or someone, Miss? May I help you with something?"

She held herself back from accidentally attacking and turned around to see a black haired woman in glasses.

Before she could say anything however, Delta opened her mouth and spoke first. "Is Shadow here?"

Alpha felt an urge to face palm. Maybe bringing Alpha here was not the best idea.

"Shadow?" The woman tilted her head, looking confused. "I apologise but I do not know of anyone with such a name. Today is my first day working here. I can ask the others and let you know."

The woman then called for a blonde human girl. "Is there someone called Shadow here?"

"Shadow? Oh, Cid-kun. Yes. He is inside the private room with Rimuru-san, Ainz-san and Saitama-san." The girl pointed towards the room but what attracted Alpha's attention was not the location but rather the name she addressed him with.

Cid.

Did they know his identity?

Shadow hadn't even told his identity to his real family then why can these people know his identity?

A look of realisation came to the eyes of the black haired woman who then looked at them. "May I know who you people are and how you know Cid-sama?"

"We are from Shadow Garden made by Shadow." Delta answered before she had the chance to say anything.

Seriously, she will have to consider bringing her to future spying missions.

"His subordinates then. I see. So you were perhaps told to come here too." She asked in a much quieter voice. " I am sorry but Cid-sama is currently talking to the rest of the…." She suddenly stopped before looking around, especially at the kitchen and then spoke again. "Would you like to go to a private room for the time being?"

Alpha sensed the change in her tone of voice and nodded.

Let's see what is going on here.

Inside the room, the woman first brought their order for them and then locked the room behind her.

Delta smelled the food and almost drooled. Even she found herself salivating at the scent of the food and her stomach made a sound making her blush a little.

Delta immediately dove in, eating.

"Don't be embarrassed. This food is made by Silas-sama himself. It is no less than a work or art, a miracle which even Supreme Beings can only praise. For people like us, having a chance to taste it….is nothing short of a boon."

Alpha broke out of her trance and suddenly registered some of the words the woman had said.

Silas-sama, Supreme Beings?

"You look confused. Has Cid-sama not explained everything to you yet?" She asked.

"We are on a test by Shadow to find out about this place." Delta answered and Alpha let her. Whatever she had done till now, had only served to answer more of their questions.

"I see. Guiding people to find their answers. Indeed, the minds and thoughts of Supreme Beings are beyond our understanding. Even we had to figure out the clues and ask Ainz-sama before he clarified our doubts. I guess Cid-sama is doing the same."

Alpha had enough of these cryptic words so she took the initiative to ask. "Could you please tell us?"

"Certainly."

What the woman told her next….was certainly not something Alpha had been expecting even with everything she had been through till now.

Supreme Beings.

A Great War.

The Restaurant which connected to infinite worlds with the goal of reuniting all the Supreme Beings back.

The story was so outlandish and yet everything was right in front of their eyes to see that Alpha couldn't even refute it at all.

But the more she thought of it, the more things became clearer.

Shadow was born to the Kagenou Household and yet he had memories and abilities completely unknown to anyone else.

The memories of his previous life, the memories of a Supreme Being.

He was doing exactly what the Supreme Beings had done in their previous life, fought against great dangers to unveil the face of darkness….and even when most of them met their ends in the Great War, they were still doing it….even in their next lives.

Even now, they had gone through a war to protect several Clans in Rimuru-sama's world, one of them being the pink haired girl who is working outside.

In a way, these Supreme Beings were Shadows of their own worlds, each carrying such heavy burdens on their shoulders all this time.

The maid, Yuri Alpha, a name which had caught her off guard but again came as a realisation, said that they were made to serve the Supreme Beings.

The Seven Shadows were named similarly to the Pleiades Seven Sisters, a name given to them by Shadow, probably in an attempt to create his own version of the Pleiades.

To think that this simple test would reveal such news to them.

Maybe, Shadow has thought them to be worthy of knowing everything and guided them to this Restaurant?

"What are you doing here then?" She asked Yuri. Calling her Alpha was a bit odd for her even now.

"As you know, the spell cast by Silas-sama has left him without any power." Yuri began and she nodded.

"This has also led him to be vulnerable. And while he is regaining his powers at a very fast speed, he is still not even close to his full power. Moreover, the world where he was reincarnated, is extremely dangerous. Gods and monsters roam around everywhere. In fact, this Restaurant had even been attacked recently but thankfully, the rest of the Supreme Beings were here. They protected this place and from what I have heard, one of them had selectively wiped out all members of the organisation which had attacked this place in the whole country with just a single spell, sending a warning to every force in this world."

Alpha's eyes widened at the information.

"Is there really such a spell which can do that?" She asked, shaken completely.

Such a person could wipe out the members of the Cult in moments….was this really how strong the so called Supreme Beings were?

"As I said, the means of Supreme Beings are beyond our understanding. Anyways, we were sent here to protect and assist him in establishing a business in this world. Unfortunately Silas-sama doesn't have many subordinates who can help him out. That's why Ainz-sama has assigned us to help him out while Rimuru-sama has assigned several Kijin."

Suddenly another thought struck her mind.

Why did Shadow choose this time to guide them here?

Why was it that no one could find the place before today and yet she and Delta suddenly found this place magically?

Was it to let her meet Yuri?

Maybe he was trying to tell them to help him too.

She will have to discuss it with the rest of the Seven Shadows.

They stayed there for over an hour and promised to return later to know more. In the meantime, Yuri had brought them several meals for the rest of their members too.

When she left the room, the door to the room next to them opened to….by Shadow.

He raised an eye at her while Delta jumped at him. "Shadow!"

She was however dodged by Shadow. "I am sorry but you are mistaking me for someone else maybe."

With that said, he took some food packed for him and left the place, completely ignoring them both.

She couldn't understand what was happening when she heard a voice behind her.

"Don't mind Cid. He is very dedicated to his role….well, his Shadow thing. He does that even with us."

She turned around to see a boy with black hair and blue eyes smiling at the door and shaking his head.

Yuri bowed. "Silas-sama."

Ah, so he was Silas, the one who sacrificed everything, even his memories and life, all for the sake of reuniting his friends again.

Alpha felt a burst of respect well up within her and was about to bow before he spoke again. "You don't have to bow all the time, Yuri. Relax."

He then looked at her and spoke again. "So you are friends with Cid-kun."

"Yes, my name is Alpha." She answered, not saying anything else. Yuri had already warned her about not speaking anything about the Supreme Beings and specially in front of Silas-sama to not disturb the spell cast by him.

"Nice to meet you, Alpha-san. Did you enjoy your food today?"

"Yes, It was the best meal I have had the pleasure of eating. Thank you."

"Well, since you are Cid-kun's friends then this first meal will be on the house. Just take care of him, alright. He can be….well you already know that I guess?" He said and she could feel the care in his voice, something which warmed her heart.

This person was really like the stories of Yuri, even when he didn't have any of those memories yet.

"Please leave him to us." She nodded resolutely.

"Great then. Visit us again." With those words, he walked into the room Shadow had left, the room where the rest of the….Supreme Beings were.

She looked at Yuri again and nodded before leaving the place, thousands of thoughts in her mind.

As promised, I am back with another chapter of 'Isekai Restaurant'.

Things are picking up pace now as most of the Snippet's characters are back now.

We also saw Alpha and Delta's visit and the confusion rolling.

Seriously, both Nazarick and Shadow Garden members can cook.

Now, how will Cid handle all this news?

Maybe in the next chapter we will see our favourite Demon Lord making an entrance.

I will try to work more on this for the rest of the month.

I want to get most of the introductions for the Snippets out of the way before we can concentrate on the plot next.

Enjoy the new chapter.

Good Day, Peace Out.
