After Axilia got me some clothes we decided to head off to Trinant, a small city in Lalett.


    [You really are a pervert aren’t you?] (Axilia)


    [Please stop. My pride is already hurt.] (Yuki)


    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?


    We arrive at Trinant within a few days and we find an inn called Blue Rose Inn.


    [Well, this is it. One of my friends works here so I can get us a room few days. It’s still gonna cost some money, but it’ll be cheap.] (Axilia)


    [Really? Ah, but i don’t have any money…] (Yuki)


    [Tch. You’re really useless aren’t you? You’re both pervert and a freeloader, why should I have to put up with you?] (Axilia)


    Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.


    [Uhh...because I saved you? Also, I don’t understand anything about this world, I could seriously die because of that.] (Yuki)


    [Haaah. I don’t think you’d die that easily. But fine, I’ll put up with you...for now] (Axilia)


    ….


    I really can’t tell whether she likes me or hates me.


    [Hey, Neshe. I’d like two rooms for 1 night please.] (Axilia)


    [Axilia! Long time no see! How are you?] (Neshe)


    A blue-haired woman wearing glasses, enthusiastically greets Axilia. It seems her name is Neshe. She’s tall and beautiful.


    [I’m great. And it seems like you are too.] (Axilia)


    [Haha, very much so. Who is this?] (Neshe)


    Getting straight to the point I see…


    [Ah. This is Yuki, I’m travelling with him for the time being. Ah! I almost forgot. Yuki, this is Neshe, the friend I told you about.] (Axilia)


    [Nice to meet you, Neshe.] (Yuki)


    [Pleasure to meet you too, Yuki. How did you meet?] (Neshe)


    Ah. She asked what I was hoping she wouldn’t ask. Axilia-san, please, help me.


    [This idiot was loitering around in the forest.] (Axilia)


    …


    …


    I knew it.


    [Axilia, don’t give her the wrong idea..] (Yuki)


    [Ahahaha! Really? Well, you sure picked up a troublemaker huh?] (Neshe)


    [I would like to return this item please.] (Axilia)


    Oi. Why is she talking about me like I’m an unwanted item?


    [Ah. Anyway, how much will the rooms be?] (Axilia)


    [It’d normally be 20 copper for both rooms, but for you I’ll make it 15 copper.] (Neshe)


    [Thank you very much. Here.] (Axilia)


    Axilia hands Neshe 15 copper coins and a small boy with cat ears shows us to our rooms.


    Just before Axilia enters her room, I call out to her.


    [Axilia!] (Yuki)


    [Hm?] (Axilia)


    [Thank you.] (Yuki)


    She smiles as she turns around.


    [You’re welcome]
