He also told him that since her skin was as red as an apple, it took him five years to figure out when she was blushing from embarrassment, and that she was painfully cute whenever she was upset that she couldn’t wink because she only had one eye.

“Oh, looks like I’ll have to end my bragging here. It’ll be starting soon, so we better go inside.”
“Yes, let’s.”
“Ah, by the way, I just remembered something about our conversation from earlier. Since it’s being treated as a taboo subject, you may not know, but apparently there was a demon master that was able employ several demons at once recently. He was someone five years my senior. I heard they had great expectations for him, and surrounded him with instructors to make him the successor to the head of the household. I’ve never met him before though. Anyway, about ten years ago, he died without breaking employment with his demon.”
“……h-he died, so, the demon……?”
“Ate him? Who knows. I just happened to overhear the old guys at my branch talking about it, so I don’t know the details. And now we’re not allowed to talk about it. It’s been going around that the head of the household has commanded everyone to forget about him, that he was gone, so it must have been really bad. He must have died in such a brutal way that if other demon masters knew about it, they’d be afraid to be demon masters.”
