Seeing Diablo, Tohru also felt a terrifying pressure.
Thinking this, she directly cast a detection spell on Diablo. Then, she was amazed by his vast mana and oppressive presence.
It gave Tohru a feeling of facing a god. No, Diablo felt even more terrifying than the gods she had challenged before.
"Releasing a detection spell on someone you've just met isn't very polite." Sensing Tohru's detection spell, Diablo reminded her calmly. Since she appeared to be Takeru's guest, Diablo wouldn't casually attack Tohru.
"Yes, sorry." Hearing Diablo's words, Tohru quickly apologized. Although she somewhat looked down on humans, Diablo, whose strength far surpassed hers, was clearly not in that category. Also, Tohru knew she had been rude first...
"Ram-san, Rem-san, and Diablo-san, long time no see." Seeing Ram and the others, Kazuho greeted them familiarly.
"Hello, Kazuho-san. Welcome, everyone." Hearing Kazuho's greeting, Ram and the others politely bowed to everyone, welcoming them.
"S-so cute!" Seeing the Ram and Rem sisters, Hotaru couldn't help but say.
Because the somewhat petite Ram and Rem were exactly the type she adored. Combined with them being her seniors, and their gentle, dignified demeanor, they completely fit the image she admired.
"Yes," Although Hotaru's voice was very soft, Ram and Rem were not ordinary people and naturally heard her words. They then looked at her with confusion.
Seeing them look over, Hotaru lowered her head shyly.
"Onee-chan, and Hikage-nee, Natsumi, Komari, Hotaru, Konomi-nee!" Soon, Renge heard the commotion and came out directly. Seeing Kazuho and the others, she called out excitedly.
"Renge!" Hearing Renge's voice, everyone looked over with delight.
"Long time no see, Renge!" Komari happily waved to Renge.
"I missed you so much, Renge!" Natsumi even ran directly to Renge's side and hugged her.
"There, there." Seeing Natsumi's actions, Renge patted her back expressionlessly to comfort her.
"Eh, Renge, are these your family and friends?" At this moment, Miu and the others who had come out looked curiously at Renge.
"Yes. Let me introduce you all. This is Koshigaya Natsumi, call her Natsumi. And this is my sister Kazuho, our teacher. And this is my second sister Hikage, currently in high school in the city. Also..." Seeing Miu and the others, Renge excitedly introduced everyone.
"S-so many people!" As Esdeath, Karin, and the others slowly walked out, Komari and Hotaru became a bit nervous. Besides them, Natsumi also became restrained.
Besides that, Konomi was even more stunned.
With her keen perception, she felt strong oppressive pressure from all of them. That meant none of these people were ordinary. Even the very young Miu made her feel threatened...
As for looking at Kumara and Wendy, it wasn't just a threat... a shadow of death loomed over her. She knew that if she were to fight either of them, escaping would be a luxury.
Thinking this, she looked with even more complex emotions at Takeru, who looked like an ordinary, sunny teenager. She didn't feel any threat from him.
Of course, she didn't think it was because Takeru was too weak. On the contrary, it was because his ability to conceal his presence was too strong.
This contrast made her shudder...
"Then, Renge, you catch up with your sisters here. We'll go train first." Then, Miu smiled and waved to Renge.
"See you later, Renge." Hearing Miu's words, everyone waved to Renge and walked towards the castle's exterior.
After Esdeath and the others left, the somewhat restrained Hikage, Natsumi, and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Renge, you've already trained mana!" Then, Konomi sensed Renge's condition and said with surprise.
Seeing that Renge, an ordinary person, had trained a considerable amount of mana in such a short time, she made up her mind never to become an enemy of Takeru, no matter what.
"Really?" Hearing Konomi's words, Natsumi and Komari looked surprised, their faces also filled with envy.
"Yes. I'm already learning magic." As she spoke, Renge directly demonstrated for everyone, quickly condensing a ball of water floating above her.
"Amazing!" Seeing the water appear out of thin air and float in the air, Natsumi directly reached out to touch it, feeling its wetness.
"Water Gun!" Then, Renge pointed directly at a large tree not far away and spoke quickly. The water turned into an arrow that flew quickly, only stopping after hitting the tree over twenty meters away.
The powerful force made the tree shake violently, many leaves fell, and the tree's bark was damaged.
"Wow, Renge, you're already a mage! That's great!" Seeing Renge's display of power, Natsumi, Komari, Hikage, and the others showed excited expressions, also very envious.
"Yes, but I'm the weakest here. So I have to work hard. I won't say more... I need to go train hard." Then, Renge spoke loudly.
"Uh, then Renge, can we watch you train?" Seeing Renge working so hard, Hotaru spoke with some anticipation.
"Master, is that okay?" Hearing Hotaru's words, Renge looked directly at Takeru.
"Of course. If you're interested in visiting, feel free to watch." Seeing everyone's curious expressions, Takeru didn't refuse.
"Karin, Miki, you go entertain them." Then, Takeru looked at Karin and Miki, who were lingering here.
"Yes!" Hearing Takeru's words, the two showed smiles and nodded. Rarely receiving a task from Takeru, they looked happy.
"Hello, I'm Karin. This is Miki. We'll be your guides. Please follow us." Receiving the order, Karin quickly got into character.
"Oh, thank you for your trouble." Hearing them say this, Kazuho spoke politely.
"No trouble at all." Hearing Kazuho's words, Karin still shook her head with a smile.
After watching everyone leave, Takeru directly took Ram, Rem, Tohru, and the others back to the kitchen.
To test how much his cooking skills had improved, Takeru planned to experiment here properly.
"Takeru-sama, what should I do?" Once inside, Tohru looked at Takeru expectantly.
"What to do? If you don't mind, would you like to be my maid along with Ram and Rem for the time being?" Hearing Tohru's question, Takeru was a bit stumped.
Then he remembered her becoming Kobayashi's maid in the original world. Being a maid might be a very good choice.
"A maid? Of course!" Hearing Takeru's words, Tohru quickly nodded. With a quick change, her outfit turned into a maid uniform identical to Ram and Rem's.
"Very well. Starting today, you'll first learn from Ram and Rem how to be a qualified maid." Seeing Tohru wasn't refusing, Takeru smiled.
"Yes!" Hearing this, Tohru quickly nodded.
"Alright. I'm going to make some dishes now. Don't disturb me, just watch carefully." Looking at Tohru, whose eyes held anticipation, Takeru gave prior instructions.
After instructing them, Takeru began his task. First, he prepared to make a Rainbow Cocktail. The main ingredient was, naturally, the Rainbow Fruit. He had wanted to make this before but kept getting delayed.
Although Takeru wasn't a big drinker, he didn't reject it.
He had decent alcohol tolerance. Especially a Rainbow Cocktail with such deliciousness, Takeru was looking forward to it.
While making the cocktail, Takeru's movements were even simpler and more unhurried, each step seemingly anticipated. The process was very smooth.
Because Takeru had brewed some alcohol before, he didn't need to start from scratch, just thoroughly blend the Rainbow Fruit juice into the wine...
In less than three minutes, a Rainbow Cocktail emitting seven colors appeared before everyone.
Even the non-drinker like Ram and Rem couldn't help swallowing upon smelling the aroma in the air.
This unique scent was very rich and sweet, making one want to taste it. Takeru eagerly took a small sip. The rich cocktail quickly entered his mouth.
Although very high in alcohol content, it wasn't too stimulating, but very mild. And it had the unique seven-stage flavor change of the Rainbow Fruit.
