23.

I then rushed to the class and managed to enter at the last second.

'Whew, made it.' I thought and sat on my chair. I then noticed Mayumi holding her laughter.

"What? I made it in time." I said to Mayumi

"You can teleport just outside the school but you are still barely avoiding being late. pfft." She finally can't hold on and giggled.

"Well, I have some business on the way, plus it also counts as a warm-up training for me." I said to her

I then talked with her and slept on the remaining classes until lunch. We didn't go to the cafeteria and headed directly to our usual spot as Hilda made me a lunch box. Mayumi then noticed my lunch box and asked me about it.

"Oh, this? The apprentice of the greatest cook alive made this for me." I casually said but Mayumi had different things running in her mind.

"Is it a girl?" she asked making me wonder, did she even forget that I said the greatest cook alive helped in making these?

"Yeah, what about it? Jealous?" I fired back making her flinch. 'oh, she managed to regain composure.'

"I'm not. Just curious." She replied but even though she regained composure, her ears were red. I decided to get her back for ruining some of my days.

"Wanna try it?" I then grabbed the peanut butter coated tentacle, she tried to back away but I cornered her and fed it to her with my chopsticks.

Even though Hilda made it, Uncle Jouichiro still helped in creating it, meaning putting a tentacle with peanut butter in it was his idea.

Mayumi's in for a myriad of expression as she felt like, a massive octopus has been caressing her body and she can't do anything. After her reaction, she then looked at me with tears in her eyes while glaring at me saying something in the lines of 'I'll get you back for this.'

"How was it? Delicious wasn't it?" I was holding my laughter seeing her reaction.

I then gave her a piece of my 'real' lunch and she was expecting another disgusting thing but when she had a taste, her eyes sparkled.

'I know what she's thinking, what if Uncle Jouichiro made pancakes. Don't worry, I know how it feels. Uncle Jouichiro made me pizza after all.'

The time passed and as usual I slept through the class and now it was time to go home, but this time Mayumi is tagging with me. When I got home I saw Uncle Jouichiro contemplating on the kitchen, maybe another creation, who knows.

Mayumi sent a questioning gaze at me as she didn't find Uncle Azazel. I also sent a mental message to Suicune, Griffon, and the others to return in the summon space.

"Oh, I hired uncle Jouichiro, he is a wandering chef. And I picked up Uncle Rayleigh who is a mechanic with her two grand daughter. They will stay here until Uncle Azazel came back." as soon as I finished saying that uncle Rayleigh, Saeko and Hilda just got back home.

Hilda and Saeko raised their guard upon seeing Mayumi, I motioned them with my eyes and soon calmed down. I then introduced Hilda and Saeko to Mayumi and vice versa.

Mayumi soon forgot what to ask me as she dragged the two before they can say anything. Dunno what're they gonna do, but just let them be. It won't be anything harmful, riiiiiiight?

I also noticed another presence and looked at the direction of Soi Fon.

"Good job not being detected." I said as she nodded.

"I sense someone strong outside should I eliminate him?" Soi Fon asked and I shook my head.

"Nah, its just a protector of our guest. Don't worry about him." I then got back to my room to change my clothes and while I'm changing a call attracted my attention.

It was from Louisa.

"Hello? Vergil here. 'Sup Louisa? Good news or bad news?"

"Good news, V-vergil. We bought the house for a discounted price as the owner's will states that those who want to buy his estate will only pay 100 million yen and on the clause that the buyer must make sure that the money used to pay the house will go to orphanages and not scammed by the seller."

Louisa getting more comfortable is a good news as well, her stuttering is getting non-existent.

"So? When will we transfer there?" I asked her since staying here is dangerous and Azazel will surely question who these people are and with his years of experience and a master liar himself(He tricks single one night stand girls😂😂😂😂) will immediately notice that I'm lying.

"We can actually transfer here now. We had plenty of remaining funds too, Sir Francis is negotiating with the owner of the building in Kuoh." Louisa explained.

'Good with Uncle Francis there, that 20 million million will surely be cut to 5-10 million based on how Uncle Francis work.' I thought

"Then can you please order the furniture so that we can move in there now? Also ask uncle Francis to start making identity papers for those back home." She accepted and we continued chatting before eventually ending the call.

I then got down and saw Uncle Jouichiro looking at a magazine. I then focused on the magazine and I saw that it was an International Gourmet Organization(IGO) funded college that was just built in the city of Karakura, three towns away from here. I then approached him and he was startled.

"If you are having doubts if you want to enter, why don't you try it? Its been a long time since you stopped being in the cooking world." I said making him think deeply.

"If you think you are going to be swallowed by the storm, you can always go back. You have a home now, you're not a stray cat anymore." I said giving the last push he needs. His mind cleared up and decided to pick up the chef's mantle once again. And before he said anything, I continued.

"You still have 2 months to teach Hilda, no worries. You can always come back, just give me a call, I'll teleport you back here." I said making him nod his head with renewed determination to step on the top of the gourmet world once more.

My grin grew really wide. The Demon Asura... is back. The Demon is stepping back into the world he once left.
