Chapter 33 (2/2)

”Oh sis, stop crying so much, this is a happy occasion”

”Right, God ive us many trials, but he also blesses us with days of joy”

While we had been together the last few days, their hearts had healed a lot On that dreadful day, they had become broken and sullied women, unable to walk into any shops in town Still, to this day I wasn't sure how the ruh they had been relieved by their survival, the World had already designated theh our recent companionshi+p have I relieved their burden somewhat It was out of consideration for them, that I prepared this dinner today, and wished to see theether Of courseand laughing at the same time

”Cheers everyone! This party is the best!”

”To the best Party!”

After the toast the owner brought out a platter of fruits and et her troubles, and was the first to fall asleep at the table Miranda continued singingthe enerously and allowed them to leave early as most of us had already drunk too muchAshe who had survived towards the end tolda warrior, I had a er constitution and was able to sober up before the women

”Custoe outside”

Thanks to the thoughtfulness of the restaurant owner, it was considerably easy to arrive back atthe Inn After helping the women to their room, I came back to my own and settled down

”I hope that it helped settle their pain a little”

The burden fro the actions I had taken e first met in the cave, had already disappeared

”Avatar Flip!”

Returning to my main body, I awoke to find myself surrounded by Ian, Gwyn, Mallepi, as well as the rest of the insects All the for me

Kueeek!

”Welcome!'

Ian's bright voice and Mallepi's cries made me feel warm and comfortable

”Right, I'm back”

”Do you like these clothes? I' one of the new one's you've sent over”

I wasn't sure about Ian's body size so I had to go with a rough estiood it looked on her I had a pretty good eye for this

”Does it look strange?”

I shook my head

”No, I was staring because you're pretty”

”Oh ho, a heartfelt praise fro your days with three women…”

Although her lips suggested she was laughing, her eyes flashed with a dangerous glint

”Of course, I needed to blend in with the Humans”

”Please tell me what you've experienced, we heard from Alpeon that you would usually return around this time”

Ian pulled out a notebook, ready to jot dohat I said The Insects were likewise listening with rapt attention while Gwyn just took the chance to settle down in my skull

”Ahhh, finally! This is indeed the best place to sleep after all!”

Gas always living in her own little world

I spent the night recounting my adventures in the human world Ian see two rooms at the Inn the Insects however were truly interested by my tales, after all, they rarely met humans or the other creatures I mentioned When the sun rose, I returned to my Avatar

'Already!'

They had been fast asleep in the adjacent roo routine started as I changed my clothes and picked up some breakfast for theether While she helped the other toe out of their clothes, I left for the Adventurer's Guild to quickly check on the status ofho

We once again spent the day shopping and and visiting restaurants In the evening we returned to eat a delicious dinner prepared by the Inn's owner We spent the night telling stories, particularly Kishande's adventures and Ashe's , ere quite tired and went to sleep

I was quite content, enjoying the peaceful days, but alas it was not to be as the very nextthat the expedition was ready to set off

'Well, this punitive Quest should be a walk in the park'

When I returned to the Inn to tell the women the news, they were clearly disappointed

”Why don't you take us with you, are we too weak?”

”No, it's not that, just that it would be a bit difficult at your current level is all”

”I don't like it! We should all be together, I'd rather die fighting than be left behind”

Kishande and the rest aiting fortheir lower lips in anticipation

'Ugh, their dependence on me is become a bit troublesome'

Still, I as a bit worried that I had gotten used to fighting with thes in battle

”Ok, but you have to agree to completely follow my commands”

They nodded vigorously with large smiles
