"Anyway, why are you in the living room? Does all of you finally got bored with the items in my room?" (Lyan)
(Hell no. There are still lots of gas that I haven't played yet, and there are lots of other things as well. But you're in an interesting situation as well. Not your affair with those courtesans' house's girls, but about the goblin king subjugation quest. It never occurred when I was alive, so I'm interested) (Griselda)
(Rather than that, there's a possibility that you might die, so we decided to observe you and get ready to be summoned. We've used our battle attire so that when you summon us, we won't appear wearing our pajamas) (Hestia)
(So they even got their own pajamas there) (Lyan)
(Well, you don't need to worry or anything. We brought the items from your room that we want to use outside, so we could have fun when we're bored looking at whatever boring thing you're doing) (Griselda)
(That makes more worried. I hope all of you just return to that room and never go out) (Lyan)
*Sigh!*
Lyan let out a heavy sigh, and when he opened his eyes, it turns out that he had already arrived in front of the rcenary guild. The exhausting conversation with the spirits made him too absorbed in the conversation and didn't realize that he had walked quite a distance.
"Ah! Lyan!" Rea's cheerful voice entered Lyan's ears.
Rea lively approached Lyan with a beaming smile together with Lichia behind her.
"You're finally here! Wow... You've really beco a big shot now, aren't you!?" (Rea)
"The others are already gathering inside, the operation will start in a few minutes. But seriously, I never thought you'll climb the rank so fast like that," Lichia stared at the gold rcenary tag on Lyan's neck.
" either," Lyan replied with a shrug.
(I only intended to have a slow and steady life, but a huge wave imdiately appeared on such a short notice. Even I did not expect that) (Lyan)
(Hou... Have you laid these two receptionists as well, boy?) (Hestia)
(Of course, I didn't!) (Lyan)
Lyan transmitted his thought angrily.
"Hey, hey. Now who we have here," A man's bright voice suddenly appeared.
Lyan shifted his gaze, and an extroverted-looking brown-haired man entered his line of sight. Lyan rembers him. He is a man that sits together with the guy that provoked him when he was inside the eting room. He's wearing red-based armors and equipnt that shows his identity as part of the Crimson Talon party.
"Oh, isn't it the promising rookie? Lichia, Looks like you're rather close with the guy," The man said as he embraced Lichia's shoulder with his right hand.
(Oh. So she already has a man~ Looks like you can't make her enter your harem, master~) (Lilith)
(I don't care, and I don't have any intention of doing so, Lilith) (Lyan)
When he embraced her shoulders, Lichia got startled a little as he stared at Lyan and brush off his hand.
"Please put your hands off , Jean. Forgive , Lyan. This frivolous guy over here is the leader of the Crimson Talon Mythril-ranked rcenary party, Jean Ferlident. His rcenary na is Blazing Talon. He might be overbearing sotis, but his skills are a real deal just like yours, having him as a connection might be beneficial for you," Lichia introduced the guy to Lyan.
(Oh... So he's the leader... But Blazing Talon...) (Lyan)
(Pfft! Blazing Talon? What kind of sucker's na is that?) (Griselda)
(I know she definitely comnts on that...) (Lyan)
"What are you acting chummy with him for? Did you cheat with him? You neglected !?" (Jean)
"I believe we're not in any relationship right now, Mr. Blazing Talon. Oh yeah, Lyan, lend your ears here a bit," Lichia motioned for him to approach her for her to whisper sothing.
Following her words, Lyan approached her and lend her his ear.
"Jess told that you didn't return to the inn for a night, are you alright? Did sothing happen?" Whispered her.
(Jess? Oh. Does she an the scholar inn's owner?) (Lyan)
"Ah. I slept at another place for last night. Please tell her I'm fine," (Lyan)
"I see... Where did you went to? You seem to be close with the girls from the House of Roses as well, do you perhaps slept there? Rea was curious about this as well," (Lichia)
"Eh? Yeah, I did," Lyan answered bluntly.
"So you did? You're rather blunt, huh... Well, you did fight with the goblin champions and killed them. n do get their sexual drive triggered after having a big battle, didn't they? But make sure that you don't visit there too much, okay? There are lots of rcenaries that lose all of their money for brothels and courtesan houses, after all," Lichia warned Lyan.
"Noted," (Lyan)
"Good," Lichia draw back her head.
"But House of Roses, huh... No wonder I didn't t you inside the inn last night..." Lichia muttered under her breath.
"What are you whispering with him, Lichia? You're playing secrets with ? Even though we used to be a pair?" (Jean)
He didn't show any sign of agitation when he said that, but a hint of jealousy of what Lichia just did is visible in his eyes. With a teasing smile, Lichia said to him.
"It's a secret between him and , there's no need for you to know, isn't it? Fufu! Does it bothers you?" With a hint of redness on her cheeks, Lichia answered Jean with an amused smile.
"It does! Of course, it does!" (Jean)
While Lichia and Jean continue their banter with each other, Rea approached Lyan.
"They were a couple back then, you know? A great one," (Rea)
"Oh. I see..." (Lyan)
(I don't really care though) (Lyan)
Rea's look when she said those words are complicated. Unlike her cheerful expression, Lyan thought that the current expression she was wearing doesn't suit her at all.
"They were a famous lovebirds of the guild back then, always together whenever there is an opportunity. But that guy betrayed her and went with other receptionists in the guild as well on her back," Rea's eyes went cold.
(R-Rea? You realize that we're talking very near the person ntioned, right?) (Lyan)
"Not only the receptionists here, but he also slept with lots of new rcenary girls. Lichia realized this after I told her that he invited to sleep with him as well. It was horrible back then, you know? There was quite a friction between the girls because they seek for his attention. He's a high-ranked rcenary, after all. Who wouldn't want to be together with a guy that has such a fa and great inco like him?" (Rea)
"Knowing that, they broke up. She got down and depressed for a long ti. But, you know..." (Rea)
As Rea's explaining to Lyan, the bantering between Jean and Lichia is also going to an end.
"Fine, fine. I'll go already. Now for my good luck in battle," Jean take advantage of his speed and steal a kiss from Lichia's lips, and left with a big smile.
"Y-You bastard!!" Lichia shouted with a hint of red on her face.
Looking at their exchange, Lyan realized what Rea is trying to tell him.
"I see... But it seems like she still has feelings for him, huh..." (Lyan)
"Yup. I don't know how to convince her to forget him... So that's why, Lyan!" Rea suddenly raised her voice.
"Hm?" (Lyan)
"You must steal Lichia's heart and make her yours! And mine too at the sa ti! You'll get the guild's receptionist cuties in both of your hands and save us at the sa ti! Then- Ouch!" Rea got her forehead flicked by Lyan in the middle of her sentence.
"W-What is that for!?" (Rea)
"Love is not sothing you force, young girl. Isn't it fine to let her love anyone she wants now? It will be a good experience for her, bad or good. As long as her dear friend continues to watch over her beside her, she'll be fine. No need to worry too much," Lyan said with a knowing smile.
"It hurts... What with that smile?" Rea asked with a pout as she held the part of her forehead that Lyan flicked.
"It's a smile that shows I know sothing. Well, if sothing bad does happen, you can ask my help. I'll be more than ready to take care of so scoundrels with my fist," (Lyan)
Lyan sohow rembered the face of his little sister when he saw Rea.
(Too caring about others' feelings. Making lots of boys fall in love with her in school because she's too friendly. She sure made quite a lot of trouble back then...) (Lyan)
"Hmph! I won't!" Rea turned her face away as she playfully act sulky.
"Sorry for the disturbance. What are you talking about?" (Lichia)
"Nothing~ Ah! Lyan! You should go to the stables already! It's almost ti to go!" Rea pulled Lyan, bringing him to the stables.
"Wait! Hey! Rea! Since when did you start to have secrets behind !!" (Lichia)
