The Reincarnated Assassin is a Genius Swordsman

to stop him, but Dorian’s hand was as fast as lightning.
He took out a pineapple from his belly pocket in the blink of an eye.

“Here you go.”

“Huh?”

The waitress' eyes widened.

“H-How did you…”

“It’s pretty common to carry around a pineapple or two.”

Dorian shrugged, saying it was nothing special.

‘It’s not! Why do you have something like that?’

Raon barely managed to suppress the impulse to smack the back of his head.

Ooh! As expected of the King of Essence’s first subordinate!

Wrath murmured, saying that he did a great job of making him his subordinate, and patted Dorian’s head with his frost.

“Thank you! Then, we will buy this pineapple and use it.”

“That’s fine, I have more.”

Dorian grinned, taking out another pineapple.

“Isn’t it great, young master? You can eat the pineapple pizza you wanted.”

“Yes, this is great.”

‘This is so great that I want to beat you up.’

“Uhh.”

Raon scowled and ordered the other food that was recommended to him.

“Thank you, we will prepare a tasty meal!”

With a refreshing smile, the waitress brought the pineapple to the kitchen.

While Raon was chatting with Dorian, who looked hateful for some reason, the waitress and a fiery-looking old man with silver hair came out of the kitchen with the food.

They displayed the steaming food on the table.

“This is the leftover pineapple after cooking.”

The old man placed the remaining half of the pineapple on the table.
Despite the impression that he gave that suggested he had experience killing several people, his voice was soft.

“Eeh…”

The waitress had half of her tongue sticking out because of the fragrance coming from the sliced pineapple.

“Dorian.”

“Yes?”

“Can I give her this pineapple?”

“Yes, of course!”

Dorian immediately nodded, as if he were telling him he didn’t have to ask something like that.

“Take this, this is for you.”

“Th-Thank you!”

The waitress bowed, her cheeks turning as red as her hair.

“Thank you.”

The old man also bowed slightly and went back to the kitchen.
His attitude was also nice, unlike his appearance.

Stop pretending to be kind and start eating already! Eat it when it’s still hot!

‘Stop whining.’

Raon sighed lightly and picked up the pineapple pizza.
He closed his eyes and took a big bite.

“Hmm…”

There wasn’t really a sour taste like he was expecting.
On the other hand, the strong, sweet taste stimulated his tongue.
It felt like the salty and sweet taste were discordant as they poked his tongue.

It wasn’t exactly disgusting, but he felt like there was no reason to heat up the fruit like that.

“Ugh, this isn’t too good.”

Dorian scowled after eating the pineapple pizza.

On the other hand—

Huh! How could this taste even exist?! The King of Essence has been so ignorant of the world!

A demon king was moved by the pineapple pizza.

This golden ratio between the sweet and salty taste is softly surrounding the King of Essence’s tongue, like silk.
This is gastronomy, and this is happiness!

The monarch of Devildom felt like he was in heaven from eating a single piece of pineapple pizza, and he was on the verge of tears.

Keep eating! You shall never stop!

“Argh…”

Raon frowned, but still kept eating the pineapple pizza.
It was certainly not too bad, but he still didn’t know why… He would’ve preferred eating a cold pineapple separately.

Wow, I’ll never get bored of this taste, no matter how much I eat it.
The King of Essence is naming this pizza the salty-sweet pizza.

Wrath kept telling him to only eat the pineapple pizza, falling completely in love with it.

“The young master really has a peculiar taste.”

Dorian wrinkled his nose, looking at Raon as he picked up the fourth pineapple pizza.

“…That’s not the case.”

“What are you talking about? You can’t hide your taste.
You are part of the mint chocolate squad, and you even like the pineapple pizza.
You are the most peculiar person I’ve ever seen.”

“I’m telling you I’m not.”

He barely managed to suppress the urge to smack the back of his head once again.

I’m satisfied.
A forest of pineapple shall be created in Devildom in the future.

The guy looked so happy.

Raon realized it was the time for him to put his plan into action.
Eating another piece of pineapple pizza, he looked at Wrath.

‘Wrath.’

What?

His voice was cheerful, to the point that it was difficult to believe he’d exploded the day before.

‘I had a feeling while using Glacier, but there are more ways to use it, right?’

Oh, did you actually notice that? You are right.

Wrath nodded in satisfaction.

It is similar to the cultivation techniques that humans use.
Glacier is the method of using frost with the utmost efficiency and the highest amount of output.

‘Does that mean I can also attack or defend with it?’

Of course.

‘It doesn’t only have that excellent scouting ability but can also attack and defend.
It’s really amazing.’

Indeed! It’s truly an incredible ability that even your inferior self managed to notice.

Wrath’s voice became even louder.
It seemed he was feeling like a worshiped demon king once again, all thanks to the sweet taste of the pineapple pizza and Raon’s blatant flattery.

‘So, how do you use that? Can you even block ice with ice?’

What a pathetic guy.
Remember what the King of Essence told you before.
It’s all about image! Nothing is impossible as long as you can picture the image.

‘Then, if I picture blocking the ice, can I block all the ice coming from both outside and inside?’

Of course.
Flaws don’t exist in an ability created by the King of Essence.
Chant the spell the King of Essence taught you and draw the image you need.
The same goes when attacking.

Wrath completely forgot about the bet and the fact that his main way of attacking was frost, giving Raon advice on the image.

‘I see.’

Raon slightly lowered his head, putting the last piece of pineapple pizza in his mouth.

It was an expression of gratitude to the monarch of Wrath, giving him his daily bread.

‘Thank you.’

The pineapple pizza was awkward and obscure, but the other food was certainly delicious.
Even Wrath.
who was a fussy eater, was murmuring about making him his personal cook or something.

“This place is great! I didn’t expect the northern land to have such a restaurant.”

Dorian smiled in satisfaction, patting his swollen belly.

“I agree.”

Raon smiled widely and stood up.
He went to the kitchen to pay, and the waitress came out with something in her hand.

“Please, take this.”

They were nicely baked, steaming brown cookies.
They were made with the pineapple she took with her earlier in the center.

“I made them because you seemed to like pineapples.”

“Uh…”

It was a misunderstanding.
A complete misunderstanding.

Another worshiper of the King of Essence has appeared in such a place.
That girl shall be appointed as the King of Essence’s pineapple girl from today onward.

Raon pushed away Wrath, who was spreading ice, and accepted the cookies.

“Thank you, erm…”

“I’m Yua!”

“I see, Yua.
Thank you.”

Raon accepted the cookies with a smile.
The old man bowed at him from the kitchen.
Raon bowed back and finished paying.

“Have a nice day! Please come again!”

Yua kept waving her hand until Raon and Dorian left the pub.

“This is pretty good.”

Eating the pineapple cookie, Dorian murmured that it was different from the pineapple pizza.

“Let’s see…”

Raon licked his lips and took a bite.
The taste of gooey pineapple inside the crunchy cookie wasn’t bad at all.

Oh, it’s gooey.
This is also a delicacy.
The King of Essence’s pineapple girl is so talented.
Today was a great harvest.

‘I know, right?’

‘I’ve gained more than you today.’

Raon grinned, putting the rest of the cookies in his mouth as he thought that part separately.

“Raon! Dorian!”

As he was thinking about the image he would make, Radin was running up to them while waving his hand.

“Leader?”

“What’s up?”

“Huff, there’s an urgent matter.”

Radin grabbed his knees with his hands to catch his breath, before standing up.

“We’ve got a mission for the third scouting party.”

His nervous eyes subsided into darkness.

“It’s your first mission!”
