Chapter 23. The waiter's commotion.

Chapter 23. The waiter's commotion.

The guests came into the diner very quickly and it was naturally difficult for us to serve, there were a lot of indignant guests, and some even threatened to wave magic at us, but still, as a result, we managed to calm down the dissatisfied visitors and they already left satisfied with the food prepared by Katayashi.

But one disgruntled visitor stuck to Nila and took her by the collar and threatened her with an electric shock if we didn't bring the order within a few minutes. But at that moment Katayashi was already overloaded with other orders, so she did not have time to prepare orders on time.

I went up to this visitor, knocked the Nile out of his hands and took him by the collar myself and told him, looking at him fiercely:

— If you touch someone again, you will receive a fire charge from me personally, or I will simply throw you out at great speed

I let him go and he continued to sit still, but after a few minutes he stuck to Nila again, but he already took a knife out of his pocket and was ready to stab her, but I was already seriously outraged and took the Speed card. Protection. Zvezda" took him out of the diner at full speed, but after a couple of seconds he came back here and started knocking over tables to other people.

But Nila settled it with her time paradox card and the tables were not fallen, and that guy came in a few seconds later and shouted at the whole dining room:

- Comrades! I appeal to you, come from that world to me and punish them.

And now someone in the likeness of a zombie began to rise from the ground. It turns out that this guy has a card capable of summoning the dead from the ground, only one type of card fit the description of this – Scarlet. But we have never met the scarlets, how they behave, what they want now, we did not know…

All the people ran out of the diner and only the four of us remained: Nila, Katayashi, me and that guy with his zombies.

Also, swords poked out of the ground, all already rusted and not ready for battle, and the zombies, taking them in their hands, began to try to hit us with them, but unfortunately they did not succeed. Katayashi reconciled her card to them, most likely, which could control the mind of not only people, but even zombies, who almost had no mind, and now everyone was already heading not us, but already at the man who attacked us.

"Hey, what are you doing, I'm your comrade, you have to obey me," the man shouted, stuttering on almost every word.

And so he called off his zombies and everything fell into place as if nothing had happened, only the holes in the floor remained. We managed to detain this man, and while Nila was having a nice conversation with him, I took the map from his bag, I took it without looking so that he wouldn't notice at the beginning of the loss, because to fulfill his mission, you need to go to this…

And after a few blows from Nila, the man left our beautiful establishment with excellent service. People started flocking to us with orders again and the most usual disputes with visitors began again, but it's good that those people were at least more patient than that guy.

And so the working day was over and we were about to go home, when suddenly Katayashi called out to us. When we approached her, we noticed that she had an envelope signed in our names with Nila in her hands.

- Take it, this is your salary for today, thank you very much for your help with violent visitors, for this you also received a salary increase. I hope we will continue to work well with you. - Katayashi said, looking at us, then at the floor, then somewhere else, in general, she took her eyes away.

Nila looked into the envelope and words like: "Oh my God, how much money was put here." were written on her face.

And indeed, after a couple of seconds, she told me about it:

- Akishito, I don't understand why they pay us so much, we just work as ordinary waiters, and we get as much money as people with good jobs earn.

I decided to look into this envelope and what I saw… One hundred thousand yen a day… Yes, even businessmen here can envy us with such a salary. We decided to get out as soon as possible, suddenly we made a mistake in calculations and now we have already reached the hotel.

We collapsed on the bed and shouted to the whole hotel: "We are rich!" and at the same moment I put next to the map that we managed to take today from a rebellious peasant and now, the book that had been lying on the table for a long time has reopened. We got up from our beds and started looking into it. It had the following words on it:

("The Scarlet Summoner"

Type - Scarlet

Ability: Summons all the deceased within a radius of ten meters. She is able to summon weapons along with the summoned one.

The new card holder is Akishito Akato

Adding to the power.)

And a few seconds after reading it, a new mark formed on my hand, which looked like blood. She was standing in a row along with the star mark. The scarlet part was very small, only a quarter of the sign was visible, while the star had a whole half.

We could not look through the book any further, it closed again and did not open again, and there was only a symbol on the map without the designation of the power and the name of the owner.

It turns out some kind of data-locked map that can only be read through a book. I wonder if this is a feature of cards with a scarlet mark.

Nila shared her opinion about this:

- Most likely, the Scarlets tried to hide their existence in order to quietly start a war among us, but now we know about their existence and that they are hiding among ordinary people. So you need to warn someone about the impending danger… But who should we warn?

Mika and Mimika entered the room:

- Hey guys, how was the first day of work? Are you all right, or are you sitting there brooding? - said the Mimic, at the same time looking at us.

— We have one problem here, we would have to inform someone about the scarlets, but unfortunately there is no one to turn to.

- Fortunately for you, we were not just sitting in the hotel and relaxing, but we decided to go to one huge library and there we met a man who, according to his stories, has the power of a Star, he is ready to help us with solving our problems, only asked us to bring Akato-kun with him so that he could make sure of his ability to magic and to manage cards.

— And you are not a blunder! Okay, tomorrow… Oh right… It won't work out, we're working... let's go to this library on the weekend. By the way, look at how much money we have now ... - Nila started talking and started showing them a purse with money.

- Wow, so there's enough for a few months ahead… You have such a good salary..." Mika said, already sitting next to me on the sofa and leaning on the nightstand.

- Yeah, we were surprised ourselves when we saw such an amount, so if we earn a little more, then we can quit. - I was talking to somehow fit into the conversation.

- That's right, we'll work for another two weeks and we'll even have to pay for our studies at the institute later for the ordinary world.

The lights were turned off all over the hotel and we were left alone in pitch darkness, not knowing how many inconveniences would happen that night.
