[He's... Really not used to being surrounded by people who are just helpful for the sake of it. He'd honestly think Kazuya was a bit of an idiot for this, if he didn't already know better.]
Well you're certainly not lacking for confidence...
[He pauses thoughtfully, eyes flicking back to the quest board again briefly.]
Alright, fine. If you're that serious about helping... I don't suppose the people who gave you that free food guarantee might be needing more assistance that would result in a reward of a similar caliber...?
Anyway, I don't see any flyer for the rat extermination one right now, so I think I may have done too thorough a job last time. It looks like they're looking for more incognito food raters, but that only gets you one free meal, and I don't know if I have it in me to eat at five more places after the portions that they gave me last time...
[But, alright, fine, if Kazuya is really offering to help with one of these harder quests, he might as well get SOMETHING out of it. He looks over the postings again, reading the rewards first and THEN checking what the job involves.]
...Oh? Now this one is interesting: A little search and rescue for a potion that can heal almost anything? They're offering quite a lot of cords in addition, too...
[Elan blinks in surprise. Kind of amazing how Kazuya keeps making this sound WAY too good to be true, and yet he's still probably going to go through with it anyway.]
Well now, that is quite a bargain. I feel so spoiled.... A guy could get used to this.

[ The most it could ever end up being is annoying, truthfully. ]
I'm pretty hard to kill, what with being a Demon Overlord, and all.

[ He gives a grin, clearly not lacking for confidence, just as he's said. ]
But we can always ask. I was pretty thorough in the rat removal, though.
[ Hm... ]
There's a paper here that wants you to rate some restaurants for free food, but it's not the same for life deal.
[... Actually, if he's so set on something like this, then does that mean..? ]
Are you capable of cooking on your own?
no subject
He's distracted from his internalized envy by Kazuya's question, glancing back at him in mild surprise.]
Hm? Of course I am. Buuuut let's be real, it can be such a hassle sometimes... So why bother doing it myself when there's a far easier alternative?
no subject
[He's being judgey....]
no subject
Elan laughs in a slightly incredulous way.]
Oh? It's not as if I'm planning on never cooking again... I just want to keep my options open! I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
i dont believe what im writing. just so everyone knows. delivery is the only way to live.
LMAOOOO IT'S TRUE
Glad I have your permission.

Yeah, that sounds like a real struggle.

[ But! It's clearly worthwhile to a normie. ]
I'm more than happy to do it with you, though. You can take my potion as well, so it's a twofer.

[Lol. Elan isn't a demon. But Kazuya still likes humans more than demons anyway.
He'll snatch the ticket from the board, handing it to him.]
C'mon. Let's go start the mission, it should be fun.
