Hataraku Maou-sama!

Sadao Maou:
All right Chi, tell me the truth. Aren't you a little weirded out that we're...

Chiho Sasaki:
What, that you're demons and angels from another world?

Sadao Maou:
Yeah, um... that

Chiho Sasaki:
Well, since you ask, I'd be lying if I said it didn't bother me. But Yusa and I have been texting each other back and forth. So I've learned a lot about who you are, and the things you've done. [blushes] But I fell for you way before I knew about any of that stuff, so nothing can change the way I feel about you now. I mean, just look at that face. That is *not* the face of a person that wants to take over the whole world.

Sadao Maou:
Yeah, about that...

Chiho Sasaki:
Miss Yusa did everything she could to keep me from falling for you, 'cause she was trying to save me from getting hurt. But I *know* what's in my heart, and I won't turn away from it. The only person who can ever stop me from caring about you is *me*. Even if you just think of me as a friend, or a trusted co-worker that's totally fine. Because that won't change things. It's not going to change my mind about how I feel, and it's certainly not going to make me act differently towards you.

Sadao Maou:
Ah, jeez, this is what makes you humans so scary, you know that?

Chiho Sasaki:
I do - especially as a girl. Mess with one of *us* and you might need a bodyguard.

Shirou Ashiya:
[Maou is explaining his strategy against the SFC to Ashiya] You want me to exhaustively consume all the fried chicken options at this new "Sentucky" place?

Sadao Maou:
Technically, it's not just about eating.

Shirou Ashiya:
It would be one thing if you wanted me to exhaustively consume all the offerings of the fried food flash sale at the supermarket near the station where I can get it for half off. But unfortunately our army does not have the financial reserves to contribute to the sales of your present nemesis. *We cannot waste money on SFC!*

Sadao Maou:
Would you just listen to me? These methods are being employed for a good reason. To win the battle we must know our enemy. Are you telling me my top adviser has forgotten that?

Shirou Ashiya:
I have not, Sire.

Sadao Maou:
I'm not saying to simply eat. I want you to eat in an exhaustive investigation of their strengths, weaknesses, and everything in between. The expense is necessary for my rise to power. Help me.

Shirou Ashiya:
Since you feel that strongly about it, sire, far be it from me to refuse you of buckets and buckets of fried chicken. However, I, Shirou Ashiya, will make certain my thoroughgoing investigation employs the minimum possible expenditure.

Sadao Maou:
[they embrace, overcome with emotion] Ashiya!

Shirou Ashiya:
[weeping] Sire, you can count on me!

Hanzo Urushihara:
[Urushihara has been eavesdropping the entire time] Gag me...
