Kapitel 212: 212. A Dangerous Waitress
The old lady didn't feel malicious intentions from Izumi's group which made her sigh in relief. She took a step forward, approaching Izumi and the others. Then, she said,
"How can I help you? Looks like you children want to come to this restaurant. But sorry, the restaurant is closed today."
Izumi put a smile on his face, then replied,
"So, you're that restaurant owner's grandmother, huh? Nice to meet you, granny." Izumi checked the surroundings and continued. "I don't think I can see people from another world here."
The old lady knitted her brow. She never revealed her identity to anyone else on earth apart from her dead husband. And then, she recalled what her grandson had told her last night. And looking at the people in front of her, she understood immediately.
Still, she kept her guard since she sensed that Izumi and the others weren't ordinary humans. Especially Rori who is depicted as a dangerous being after feeling her power.
Meanwhile, looking at the old lady's wariness, Izumi tried to loosen her tension.
"Granny, I even invited my friends from other worlds to stop by this restaurant, won't you give us an exception?"
Since the old lady already knew about the other world, Izumi didn't need to hide it anymore and said straightly.
"All of you from another world?" The old lady asked. Then Izumi shook his head.
"Not quite, granny."
"What do you mean?"
"These three girls certainly are from another world. However, this guy and I are local. In other words, this is my world. Both of these girls came to my world through special means which you can say because of my ability. If you're wary of me because you thought I'm from another world and planning to conquer this world, you're gravely mistaken. And that should be my line instead." Izumi's tone turned deep and cold while narrowing his eyes.
The appearance of a god, a strange restaurant, and an old lady in front of Izumi confirmed his assumption about the diminishing dimensional barrier. And it wouldn't be strange for the dimensional barrier to crack in the near future which might have disastrous consequences for his world.
"From what I know so far, there are no people from this world that have such ability." The old lady still replied. And Izumi nodded.
"Yes, just like you said. However, there's an exception. For example…" Izumi pointed at Hiiro while gesturing to him to take off his hat. "You must be familiar with his face if you watch television."
Hearing what Izumi said, the old lady turned to Hiiro. And sure enough, Hiiro's face was no different from the missing child reports on television.
"This guy was summoned to another world using a hero summoning ritual, then got back to this world while retaining his power."
"A hero summoning ritual?" The old lady shuddered when Izumi mentioned "hero" earlier.
"So, what about you, granny?" Izumi asked with a smile.
Hearing Izumi asking how she got to this world, she sighed.
"Well, you kids have already said something, so I should say it too. But, we'll talk about it inside."
The old lady pointed at the door of the restaurant. The restaurant is called Nekoya. Even though the restaurant is only a family restaurant, the dishes there are worthy of being called dishes from a star restaurant.
At that very moment, the old lady heard a chuckle.
"Granny, you don't need to talk about your past, you know! We already knew that you didn't have bad intentions toward this world. We are just curious about how you came here, please forgive us! This is my friend's world. So, it's natural for us to be worried." It was Tabane who said that. She thought they didn't really need to know about the old lady's identity since she seemed already living in this world for quite a long time.
Before they entered the restaurant, they introduced themselves to each other. The old lady's name is Yomi. Because she married a Japanese, she bears the name Yamagata as her surname.
*clank clank*
The bell rang as they entered the restaurant. What greeted them was the figure of an Elf, with pointed ears, black hair, and green eyes, as well as a blonde-haired girl with curled horns.
"Welcome."
"Welcome. Are you a new customer here?"
Surprisingly when the two waitresses greeted them, one of them seemed to be using telepathy which surprised Izumi and the others including Yomi. Not only that, but for some reason, he could understand what the blonde-haired waitress was saying even though her voice and lip movements were out of sync.
When Izumi, Rori, and Yomi saw the black-haired waitress. They could feel tremendous power from her. Not just that, her aura was so terrifying that made Rori flinch, even though Rori was the most powerful one from Izumi's group.
Izumi saw Hiiro was about to do something with his magic. Probably he wanted to know about the statuses of these people from another world. Instantly, Izumi turned his gaze to Hiiro's hand and activated his magic destabilization to cancel Hiiro's magic.
Izumi stepped forward in front of Rori. He turned his head and curled his lips at her, then his gaze turned to the Elf waitress. His expression was too calm facing the most terrible person he had ever faced.
"Miss, you're so proficient in telepathy. If it's magic, can you elaborate on it for me?"
Unexpectedly, Izumi asked about telepathy. Despite his interest in telepathy, he also wanted to distract Rori and Yomi who had already sensed how horrifying the waitress in front of them was.
The waitress replied to Izumi's question with telepathy.
"I'm sorry, mister customer. I'm working right now. I can't teach you."
"So, is it OK if she's not working?" Izumi secretly said. But she was a person from another world and he didn't know where she lived.
"That's unfortunate. I really need that ability though."
Izumi shook his head in disappointment. Then blonde-haired waitress approached him and said,
"C-customers, I'm sorry, you're standing in front of the door. You're blocking the entranceway for another customer."
"Oh, sorry, sorry. This is the first time someone is talking to me telepathically, so I can't hold back my curiosity." Izumi apologized to the blonde-haired waitress, then turned around and gestured to the others to get the seats.
Looking around, Izumi saw various kinds of customers. A wizard with a tremendous amount of magic power, a swordsman with a sharp aura, a lizardman, a lion-man with a huge body, a beautiful young lady like a princess, a man with knight-rank noble attire, a ponytail woman with cowboy-like clothes, and even an Elf, or maybe a half-Elf because her ears seemed shorter than the Elf he knew.
While Izumi and his group sat together, Yomi walked toward the wizard instead. It seemed both of them were friends.
Izumi glanced at the Elf waitress who was serving the customers, then he heard Rori say.
"Isn't that waitress too dangerous?"
"True. But I didn't feel malice in her. Even so, I felt she was stronger than you, Rori." Izumi replied.
Rori nodded.
"Her presence is similar to when I was facing my superior."
"What? Is she a godly being?"
Hearing Rori and Izumi's conversation, Tabane, Karin, and Hiiro were also surprised. Either way, they couldn't sense someone's aura as Rori and Izumi did, so it was only natural that those three didn't realize.
"She's a god?" Hiiro asked.
"Who knows? In any case, you're too careless, Hiiro! I've told you many times, don't carelessly use your magic to check people's status! You have to change your habits!"
Hiiro lowered his head in guilt. It was his habit to check someone's status, so he did it spontaneously without thinking. Suddenly, Tabane changed the topic.
"Anyway Izumi-chan, I saw it, you know!"
"Saw? What?"
"Your left eye is changing color like a Chuunibyou. Hehe."
"Hey, don't be joking, Tabane-chan. Almost anyone indeed has that syndrome. But. it was my past, not now."
"I've seen it several times." Even Hiiro also gave his comment.
"Seriously?" Izumi wondered if the two of them wanted to make fun of him. However, Hiiro was always serious whenever he spoke in front of him. Izumi still couldn't believe their words and made Tabane say it again.
"In that case, try using your ability earlier!"
"Earlier?" Izumi thought for a moment, the only ability he just used was magic destabilization eye.
"Don't tell me!" Came to realization, Izumi took out his phone and used a selfie camera, then used his magic destabilization eye.
The iris on his left eye changed from blue to golden color, exactly like a Chuunibyou he saw in anime, only his right eye remained the same.
"N-no way! I became Kuroneko v 2.0."
Izumi lowered his head to the table dejectedly while Rori and Tabane laughed at him and made the other customers look at them.
At that time, the blonde-haired waitress came with four cold drinks along with the menu.
"Customer, these are free services, and this is the menu. Can you read western language?"
Hearing the waitress' question, they didn't understand what it meant. Izumi raised his head from the table and asked.
"Western language? English? Spanish? Or what? I knew some languages from Europe or America."
"Umm, I don't understand what you meant."
Since the waitress didn't understand, Izumi asked for the menu and looked at the contents.
"What language is this? Although the menu is more or less the same as yesterday, the language is different. Rori, how about you? Any similarity to your world?"
"This language is different from my place."
"I believe this is the price! Is the owner changing the language in the menu so another world people would understand?"
When Izumi, Rori, and Tabane were talking with each other, a blonde-haired waitress stepped forward and wanted to explain to them. However, before she could talk. Izumi told her to call the restaurant owner.
