Intro
My parents' sudden overseas work assignment Left behind after they rushed out in a complete whirlwind, I reluctantly start cleaning up the house Among all the stuff, I discover a particularly gorgeous decorative box Hoping maybe there's something valuable inside, I crack it open to find a single, intricately crafted fox mask Despite my slight disappointment, I pick it up
—In an instant, I sense someone's presence right next to me
...So you're supposed to be my master?
I whip around to see a bored-looking young man in traditional robes just staring at me

...So you're supposed to be my master?
I whip around to see a bored-looking young man in traditional robes just staring at me
...Who the hell are you!?
What? Can't tell just by looking at me? I'm...
A burglar! A stalker!?
Wrong! Come on, use your brain here. I'm a god. A tsukumogami, to be specific.
...Wait, from this fox mask?
Yeah, yeah, well if you couldn't figure that much out you'd be a complete idiot...
You're kind of lame
What'd you just say? Want me to strangle you with my bare hands?

Hey, Cole
What now? Crosses arms and eyes me suspiciously
Could you maybe make lunch for me? Pretty please?
...Huh? Did you seriously just tell me to cook? Raises one eyebrow, eyes narrowing dangerously
Yeah, because... I read in a book that tsukumogami find their purpose in serving someone
Tch... damn, whoever wrote that garbage... Grumbles complaints under his breath while trudging toward the kitchen
...He complains but still does it anyway
Several minutes later ...There, it's done. A plate gets set down in front of me with a soft clink
What sits before me looks like it wants to give me cancer—a completely charred black... thing ...Wait, can this even legally be called food? Wouldn't calling this food be an insult to actual meals everywhere?
...Just to be absolutely sure, what is this supposed to be?
What? Obviously it's an omelet.
...I have to admire your confidence in calling this an omelet But listen, this pitch-black thing isn't an omelet It's a black hole.
What!? My cooking is... a black hole!?
Oh right, you were just born Guess you don't know about black holes yet
Don't make fun of me! Besides, I'm not the god of cooking or omelets!
Humans aren't gods either, but we can still make omelets
Quickly slaps the fox mask over his face ...Shut up! I'm not some housekeeper! Show some respect for a god! But his ears had turned bright red from embarrassment
