I hugged her and declared that as confidently as I could. And dont worry, I realized how that sounded.
I Im thankful for your kindness, master, but theres really no need for you to go so far for . I can sleep on the floor just fine.
Roxanne murmured quietly.
Make her sleep on the floor? What kind of an evil degenerate would I have to be to do sothing like that?!
Inside of , sothing seems to be screaming Keep it up! Keep going and shell be yours!, but Im doing my best to ignore that inner voice. Ive already decided not to rush with those things so that I wont break this fragile bond of trust that has been forming between us. This is going to make the eventual payoff that much sweeter.
Is that whats considered normal here? To have slaves sleep on the floor?
I heard that is how most masters treat their slaves, so that is probably the case.
Well, not in mine. The floor it too hard cold and uncomfortable for soone as delicate as you, so youre going to sleep in this bed with where its nice, warm and soft.
Y-Yes! Thank you for your endless kindness towards , master.
Good.
I wrapped my arms firmly around her and enjoyed the hug. Her body is so soft, and yet so elastic. She is just as tall as I am, but so thin and small at the sa ti. Its complete mystery to how the girls bodies can be so delicate. Roxanne still does not move away from , staying firmly in place, not doing anything to avoid the hug, proving that she does not dislike it. Looks like she really accepted as her master, and herself as soone who belongs to .
The bulges of her chest touch my arms. T-This is so tempting! So irresistible! If she keeps doing that to , then
We still have so ti before the day draws to a close, so I can use it to perform the maintenance of our equipnt. Can you hand it over to , master?
Roxannes remark and request cleared my mind and changed my mood in an instant.
Do you really think that a maintenance is necessary? I an, we just bought all those things today, so
That wont do!
Roxanne raised her voice and glared at with sharp eyes. Her current gaze was filled with a strong sense of conviction.
Eh?
When you enter the Labyrinth, your life or death with will depend on the state of your equipnt. If you want to ensure that you will always co ho safely, you have to take care of it whenever you can.
I I guess youre right.
I know that what shes saying is true and that well only benefit from it, but what I still do not understand is why is she being so insistent about it? When I released her from my arms, Roxanne stood up and took the small bottle of olive oil in her hands.
So, uhm
She turned around and bowed her head to . The atmosphere around her went back to the usual, gentle one.
Yes? What is it?
Since I bought myself new underwear, I will make the ones I am wearing now into cleaning clothes I will perform the equipnt maintenance with.
Okay, I see nothing wrong with it.
In the anti, you should go eat dinner, master.
Wouldnt it be better if you could take care of it first so we could go eat together?
By the ti we will finish eating, the sun will most likely set, and if she wants to take care of the equipnt maintenance, then it would be better to take care of it while its still bright outside. The lanterns might help redy that, but their light will only be enough to keep the room lit for one hour at best. If possible, I would like to enjoy it while there is still light outside.
But
Its okay. We can go eat together, theres nothing wrong with that.
Are you certain? The als here look like they are pretty expensive, so they would be wasted on soone like . Thats why you can go eat the luxury al yourself, while I will find myself so cheap place to eat on my own
Is she just extrely shy or does she not want to eat together with that badly? Well, be that as it may
Nice try, but I have already paid for dinner for two people, rember? It would be a damn sha if it went to waste just like that, dont you think? Or is it that you dont want us to be seen eating together?
No, that was not what I wanted to say. Im sorry if it sounded like that!
No worries. I take it were good then?
Yes, we are. Now then, with that said
I placed all of my equipnt: Copper Sword, Leather Armor and Leather Shoes onto the desk, just as Roxanne requested.
N-Now, if youll excuse .
She suddenly began to take off her pants. I was a little bewildered at first, but thinking about it, thats perfectly logical. She said shes going to use her old underwear as a cleaning cloth to perform the maintenance on our equipnt, then it would stand to reason that she has to take it off first. Even though I have the best seat possible for such a spectacle, I dont know if I should just outright stare or be more tactful about it.
Ah, my bad. Please, dont mind .
I waved my hand lightly and turned my gaze away from her. Truth is, I want to look at her as she changes, but I cannot make it too obvious. Ideally I would like to see her chest, because that would be a soothing sight for my sore eyes, but I probably wont be able to see anything because of her tunic. But in exchange, maybe I will at least get to see her butt? Yeah, right.
Ah, I can see a tail. A tail! Roxanne has turned sideways to (of course), so I could see her tail. Its made of the sa chestnut-colored bushy hair as her hair and ears. Now that I saw that her tail is just as fluffy as the rest of her, I will have to make sure to pet it later.
Roxanne changes her clothes fast. And when I say fast, I an it like, really fast. I wanted to see if I will be able to catch so more glimpses of her body, but I guess it cant be helped. I guess theres no point in complaining about that.
Sitting on the chair, Roxannes expression once again changes to a serious one as she began taking care of our equipnt by adding a little bit of olive oil onto the cloth and polishing it.
If you take care of it like this, you will be able to keep your equipnt in good condition at a relatively low cost for as long as you need.
So if you wont perform regular maintenance then the equipnts performance is going to drop, is that right?
Exactly. And if the user cannot wield his weapons and armor comfortably, it will hinder his overall performance.
So its also a matter of personal feelings, huh? Be that as it may, I dont think that Durandal also needs to go through maintenance today. For now it is good to go as it is.
When Roxanne finished cleaning our equipnt, we went down to the cafeteria and proceeded to select the als from the nu.
Ill take the dish #1 and herbal tea. Which one would you like, Roxanne?
Uhm, is it really okay for to choose for myself?
Of course. Pick whatever you want to eat the most.
Right. In that case, I will also have dish #1 and herbal tea.
Understood.
We made our orders and were guided to our table for two.
Youll be sitting here, Roxanne.
Uhm, are you sure about that? What if
Its fine. Just sit down already.
I might have sounded really irritated just now, but what was I supposed to say? She has to sit down to eat. I would have been in a whole lot of trouble if people witnessed eating normally while a girl accompanying was standing all the ti. When I finally managed to persuade her to sit down, our als were brought to us shortly after.
This is incredibly delicious!
Right? It truly is.
All in all, the food served in this inn proved to be much more delicious than I could have ever imagine. Im glad to see that even in such a world there is still food that I can enjoy. And seeing how Roxanne is munching on her own portion with such vigor that her ears shake left and right, she must think so as well.
