Oscar: Will, I’ll show you what it means to be ‘intimidating’.
Will: O- Okay...
(Hmm, but they all seem to open up to him right away even if they're scared at first...)
Oscar: Excuse me? I want to take a look at food for hedgehogs.
Male employee: S- Sure.
Oscar: Do you have mealworms? I'd prefer dead ones if possible.
Male employee: D- Dead...
Oscar: I'm fine with living ones too if you don't have any.
Male employee: Eeep!?
Oscar: A- Apologies... I'll come again...
Hah... That's about it. I didn't expect him to scream, though...
Will: Please don't let it get to you. He simply got scared.
Oscar: I hope that's the case...
Will: But I feel like I understand now.
If I use fewer words and
Let's see... ahem...
What do you think, Oscar? Like this?
Oscar: Yeah, I think that's fine.
Will: I see, I feel like I can do it now.
Oscar: I'm glad I was helpful.
Will: What if I go to a store I've never been to and try it too?
Oscar: I don't mind, but are you sure? If you try something like that it'll be hard to visit again.
Will: It's fine. Because I want to be able to act like the demon king!
Oscar: Then I don't see why not...
Will: Ahem... Let's go then, Oscar.
Oscar: Sure.

Will: Waah, please look, Oscar-san ♪
The pancakes here are big and fluffy so you can add a lot of toppings on them!
Hehe, I've been wanting to come here ever since Marion-san told me about it. ♪
I must post it on HeliChan too later.
Oscar: Will, you're acting like usual, you know?
Will: Ah...
Ahem, okay...
Female employee: Are you ready to order?
Will: Yes. This pancake set.
Oscar: I'll have a cup coffee.
Female employee: All right.
Oscar: (Yes, he's doing great. I don't sense the usual friendliness from Will.)
Will: With whipped cream on top.
Female employee: Whipped cream, okay.
Will: I want vanilla ice, too.
Female employee: Sure. ♪
Will: ...... And plenty of maple syrup if you can...
Female employee: Fufu, I will bring you a bottle. ♪
Oscar: (The atmosphere has brightened...?)
Female employee: I also recommend melted marshmallows on top. How about that?
Will: Marshmallows, huh... ♪ Yes please.
Female employee: Ufufu, alright. ♪
Will: Huff... How was that?
Oscar: You're something else Will.
Will: Huh?
Oscar: You managed to brighten the atmosphere in an instant. I don't think I'd ever pull that off.
Will: Hmm... so...
Oscar: I wouldn't call that a demon king.
Will: Is that so... I guess the marshmallows at the end were too much...
