18 [14] Wilms physical strengthening course.txt (1/2)

Leaving Shazar and the others, Virum and the others decide to stay at an inn they found on their way to explore the city.

The Dragon's Perch.

Merdina chose this inn.

It's a refreshing inn with two meals, bathroom and toilet facilities, and is well-cleaned.

Welcome. Five silver coins per person per night, four silver coins per person if you share a room. You may think it is a little expensive, but I will offer you a decent service for that.

The good-natured cat-beast landlady greets you with a reassuring smile.

That smile doesn't falter when I look at the dark-eyed black hair of the abomination (Virum), and I can tell that she firmly recognizes me as a guest.

''For now, I'll take the three of you for two nights, and this girl and I will share a room, please. Payment, please...

Meldina froze where she had put her hands in her pockets.

It seems that she had been disappointed that her belongings were stolen when she was captured by the slavers.

Virum, who noticed Meldina's condition, casually stepped forward.

''Four gold coins and five silver coins. In the meantime, I'll take care of you for five days.''

'Oh, isn't your brother a good man, not having a woman pay for it himself? I did take it. I'll let my daughter show you your room. Lulu~, show our guest to his room!

The landlady seemed to think it looked like Virum was trying to keep Meldina from paying her.

In response to the landlady's voice, a cute little girl around ten years old, a cat-beast girl just like the landlady, comes out of the room behind the counter and bows her head in a bow.

For a moment, she turned her hesitant gaze to Virum, but immediately smiled and began to respond.

Thank you for using our shop. I will show you to your room, please come this way.

Following the girls, Meldina calls out to Virum on her way to her room.

'(Oh, thanks. I completely forgot that they even stole my wallet.)

Vilm replied with a flutter of his hand, as if to say, ”Don't worry about it.

After being ushered into the room, Vilm took a break and visited Meldina and the others' room.

'Meldina, Cunaria, do you have a moment?'

Meldina, responding to Wyrm's voice, opens the door to the room and greets him.

'What's up? Was there something you didn't know how to use?

''No, for now, we've decided on a place to be our base of operations, so I thought I'd start teaching Coonaria some combat skills tomorrow... I wanted to know what level of knowledge and experience Coonaria herself has.

Okay. Okay, come on in.

Virum entered the room with Meldina's permission and sat down in front of Cunaria.

''Cunaria. As promised, starting tomorrow, I will teach you the basic techniques of combat and physical strengthening.

'Yes! Best regards!

'But first, tell me how much you know about Cunaria's own combat experience and physical enhancements.

'Well, I've never been in a fight. When I was traveling with Mel, I just ran away and hid from the obstacles. I know that physical enhancement is a type of magic that uses magic power to increase your physical abilities.

'Hmm,' said Wyrm, putting his hand over his mouth, seemingly thinking about something.

'Alright, let's start at the beginning and go through it in order.

'Oh, can I hear it too? It seems like the physical enhancements I know of are a little different from the enhancements I know of in Virum.

Yeah, sure, no problem. Feel free to tell me if it's confusing or if you have any questions.
