After a fairly mediocre breakfast that was prepared by Kery, we stepped out of the house and went towards the guild. The summer sun had already risen above the wall as the sweltering heat began to pummel our skin.
I pulled out my stone as I checked the time. The numbers that displayed on the rock read eight in the morning on the dot. As I returned the clock into my pocket, I quietly exhaled.
"Haa…"
Kany took notice of my quiet noise as she poked my side.
"Oi, don't get upset now, Onii-san. If you can't stand the summer heat now then you're gonna bake when it comes to July."
"Ah… No it… It's not about that I just…" I continued walking as I stared off into the distance. We've walked this path so many times now that my body moves on autopilot, just like when I was working for Biar.
"Is it stress?" Erana leaned over and asked.
Erana is rather popular, but she's very picky. Fun fact: Remember the art I got for volume 4? Well the artist actually commented that Erana was quote "very pretty" and that they loved drawing her which is what inspired me to write this specific part. I hope you all enjoyed.
Catch you on the flip side!
P.S. If you like watching anime, watch Nagatoro. It's great.
Also since I'm doing shoutouts: Check out Insurrection of the Inept Hero by MonarchX. He's a guy I know on discord and is fairly chill.
