Well then, lets put the party nas matter aside for now. What should we do from here?
Well, Im about to head back. What about you, Kuro? Do you have stuff at our place? Should I co to bring it first thing in the morning?
Ill go get it now.
Thats not a good idea. If you go get it now, youll be going back alone, right? I honestly think you will be fine, but theres always a slight chance sothing will go wrong, so its a no.
Mgh
Dont mgh . So things are just not allowed.
Uhhh, is Ryuu Kuros mother or sothing?
In that case, how about all of us go get the luggage together? That way, even though its just us girls, well have four people going back. Also, it might be a good idea to greet Gim. And from what I heard earlier, the one whos co with you this ti is Triela, right? Id like to see her face again after such a long ti
Hmm Well, I cant quite agree with that. Not because I think Ren and the others are weak or anything, but separate from that, I still think its not a good idea for just girls to walk on the night roads. Also, its one thing to et her, but I dont think she will co to see you. You know her personality, right? She was arguing with Gim that she was here for work and unless it was a coincidental eting, she wouldnt make ti to et you. He said it was okay if she made so ti, but shes too diligent for her own good.
Ah
It seems like every ti we et, Ryuu becos even more of a gentleman. Is he handso? Lily and Arisa, even though hes younger than them, seem a bit shy around him. As for Triela, well, shes as steady as ever. I feel a bit lonely, but thats just how Triela is. If shes not coming from her side, theres no problem with going to et her myself.
You dont have to force yourself to co for a greeting either. Regarding Kuros situation this ti, Gim told us that its not like Ren tried to recruit her actively, so he said there was no need for you to co.
Oh, really? In that case, hmm?
No, even then, well still go and say hi. We know Gim, and even in the previous incident with Ren, we received various help from him. Instead of leaving the possibility of being rude here, its better to put in a little effort now. Even if we werent acquainted, just by your words its clear that hes a kind and good-hearted person, and if thats the case, its not a bad idea to make a connection using this opportunity.
Huh, seriouslyI an, is that how it is?
Pfft.
Whats that for? Dont laugh.
Im sorry Pfft.
Yeah, I an, Gim told that first impressions are important so Ive been trying to improve the way I speak and tone, but its not easy Its tough, you know, this kind of thing.
I see, he seed to be minding how he talked for a while now, and it looked like Gim had advised him on it.
Thats true, it may be challenging, but its not wasted effort, so keep trying.
Yeah. Ah right, I really should head back soon. Its pitch dark outside.
By the way, where are you staying now?
Yeah, I never really thought about it before, but even though there arent that many inns in this town, there has been a significant increase in the number of adventurers since the special goblin extermination quests. I was wondering where theyre all staying.
Huh? Oh So, the inns in this town got fully booked by the ones who arrived early, and the ones who ca later are camping outside the town.
Eh? Outside the town?
Didnt you know that, Ren? The people who ca to deal with the goblins set up tents and stuff on the open area across the town and the highway. That whole area has beco like a makeshift lodging place.
Is that so?
Ren, you really dont seem to have any interest in things that dont directly concern you, do you?
Arisa, its not so much a lack of interest as it is indifference, dont you think?
.No such thing.
Yeah, thats not the case okay? Probably in theory.
Okay, lets stop. Next topic please!
Well, still, wouldnt gathering such a large number of people like that lead to territorial disputes or sothing?
Oh, its surprisingly okay on that front. Theyve set up stakes at regular intervals and tied ropes between them to partition the space. Each space is quite spacious, so you can even start a fire and cook there. Plus, there are a few people who like to be in charge, so if any disputes arise, they step in to resolve them.
I see How about baths?
Ah, theyve apparently created a communal bath behind the guild. When people return to town, theyre encouraged to take a bath to wash off the dirt before returning to their lodging. And it seems like theyve separated it into male and female sections.
Oh, its quite organized in various ways. That guildmaster seems like quite a capable person.
As we were chatting like that, it got really dark outside, so Ryuu hurriedly ran back ho. It was decided that we would pick up Kuros belongings from Ryuu and Gims base first thing in the morning.
By the way, when Ryuu ntioned earlier that Triela wont co to see us, its because shes responsible for maintaining the tents and such at their lodging site. After the study eting, a new female mber joined Gims party, and she seed to be mainly accompanying that person. Gim seems to be considerate in many ways Hes really a kind and responsible person.
By the way, for tonight, Kuro ended up sharing my bed. She clung to my belly until she fell asleep, but when I woke up in the morning, she was curled up at my feet. Hmm, shes a cat
Daily routine? Well, under these circumstances, I really cant do it, okay?
