"Besides, doing something 'naughty' every once in a while is fine. But if you always do bad things, you'll turn into a bad person."
"Hmm… I suppose there's some truth to that, but…"
Allen wasn't trying to lead Charlotte astray.
He just wanted her to enjoy a pleasure she never experienced before.
They say poverty dulls the mind, but being overly indulged can also ruin a person. If you're going to do something a little ‘naughty,' it should be done in moderation.
On that point, Allen had no objections.
But... he couldn't give in here. He subtly put on a worried expression and studied Charlotte's face.
"If I take you on a trip... I'm sure you'll be happy, right? That's what I want to see."
"Ugh… W-Well, that might be true, but…"
Charlotte quickly averted her gaze.
Allen could feel it, she was wavering. Allen continued on with glee.
"It'll be a fun trip, no doubt about it! We can enjoy the local cuisine, visit sightseeing spots, or just lounge around at the inn. Ah, and of course, there's always the hot springs."
"H-Hot springs…!"
Charlotte’s shoulders jumped in reaction.
In the Crawford family, travel plans were always decided by his mother, who held the highest authority in the household hierarchy. Therefore, Allen knew very well how women find hot springs attractive.
Her resistance was crumbling.
Allen smirked and lifted Charlotte’s chin with a finger.
"Now, tell me where you want to go. And… I’ll make your wish come true."
"A-Allen-san…!"
Her sky-blue eyes gazed at him in a daze.
But just as quickly, Charlotte snapped out of it and pulled away.
"Th-that won't do! I won't tell you!"
"Mm, you're stubborn… Then I suppose I have no choice but to use my last resort. Shall I curse myself with the death spell again?"
"I told you to stop that, didn't I!?"
Charlotte's usual sharp retort rang through the air.
At the same time, as if on cue, the doorbell rang.
Allen, who had been about to cast the curse, stopped and tilted his head in curiosity.
"Tch, of all times… I'll be right back. Wait here."
"T-Thank goodness…"
Charlotte visibly sighed in relief.
But if she thought Allen was going to give up so easily, she was sorely mistaken.
Leaving that aside for the moment, Allen headed to the entrance. When he opened the door... the usual person saluted him.
"Hello, Demon King-san. Good day."
"Oh, it's Miaha. But wasn't the delivery done in the morning...?"
"This time it's a special delivery."
Miaha rummaged through her bag and pulled out an envelope.
It's addressed to "Great Demon King."
What a sloppy addressee. What kind of courier service would even deliver something like this?
On top of that, the handwriting was unfamiliar to him, leaving Allen puzzled.
"And this is…?"
"Heh heh… Prepare to be amazed, nya!"
Miach grinned mischievously as she handed over the envelope.
Then――
"Congratulations! You've won a two-person, three-day, two-night trip, nya!"
"…Huh?"
