The moment she sat on the couch, the padding immediately creaked and bent.
"It seems that I have to remind the tavern to reinforce the couch," thought Victor, "Though the bed is right in the corner of the room, sometimes it more interesting to not do it in bed. A new place brings unexpected feelings. pared with the king's city in the Kingdom of Dawn, the tavern here obviously lacks a profound background."
Before long, Tinkle cleaned the drinks and food on the table and spread the newspapers out in front of him.
"This is..." Victor couldn't help raising his eyebrows. He saw small, dense words on the paper, just like the classics which his family treasured.
