This was the first time El had ever encountered a demon, but looking at the appearance of the creature in front of him, he figured it probably wouldn't be too unpalatable.
"Look at this body, the muscles are quite full, unlike the skinny ones of vampires."
And this wing actually has flesh attached, not just fascia, which I like.
Finally, there's this, a head that looks similar to a sheep's head; it should also be edible.
Facing the demon in question, El immediately began to evaluate which parts were edible, how they should be eaten, and whether they tasted good.
The unfortunate demon trembled, trying to escape.
However, because he was being trampled underfoot by El, he couldn't even speak.
Although it sounds a little strange, the demon wanted to scream for help if he could.
That's right, the demon, facing El, tried to shout for help to attract the people outside the alley.
It knew very well that patrolling guards would occasionally pass by outside, and if they saw it, a demon, its fate would be death.
However, it couldn't detect a single falsehood in El's words just now; this person genuinely wanted to eat it!
It would rather have a guard's spear pierce its heart than someone's eager kitchen knife.
As El continued to study the flesh, tears of regret streamed down the demon's face.
"I regret it, I really do..."
It maintained its human appearance as a disguise until it entered the alley.
At the time, I also heard guards nearby reminding passersby that the capital was unsafe recently and that they should not walk alone in secluded places.
At that moment, the demon paid no attention to those words and even wanted to laugh.
Unsafe? You're the ones who are unsafe; it's a demon.
I never expected things to change so quickly...
"If I had known that even demons would be eaten, I definitely wouldn't have gone near this guy."
Unfortunately, there's no such thing as a second chance in this world. After waiting a moment and confirming that the demon had no companions, El cut off the limbs of the food and took it back.
"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
Half an hour later, the hotel where Al was staying received complaints from other guests that a particularly fragrant smell was wafting from someone's room. So, the hotel staff came up to check and warned them not to barbecue in the room and set the hotel on fire.
"Yes, it's nothing. Don't worry, I'm a law-abiding citizen, there won't be any problems."
El calmly responded, while simultaneously controlling the wind element to collect the escaping scent to prevent it from affecting the environment.
"Oh, then I'm relieved. Please let me know if you need anything else."
"Okay, I've got it."
The conversation sounded perfectly fine; the guests were polite, and the staff were helpful and responsible.
But is that really the case?
Because the door wasn't opened, the departing employee didn't see what was actually inside the room.
A plate covered by a metal dome, from which a wisp of white smoke rose, carrying a strange fragrance.
On the table, several jars of sauces of different colors were already prepared.
"Finally, we can eat. This demon meat does taste a bit like mutton. I wonder if it's actually good."
Open the lid, and inside is a sheep's head, or rather, the head of that demon.
