章 48: The Team Up [1]

The moment I logged in, Liora noticed my presence immediately.

"GOD, Liora was lonely!!!" she cried, clinging to me, her petite body pressing against mine.

'Good thing I'm not into that sort of thing,' I thought.

"Uh-huh, Liora, I missed you too, but this is enough, don't you think?" I gently pried her off.

"Hnnngh, just a little more," she pleaded.

When I finally managed to break free, I realized we weren't at the inn. Instead, we were in an unusually luxurious place. Despite the wooden structure, the ceiling was incredibly high.

In Elfland, "glowing mushrooms" are often used for lighting, but this room boasted a splendid chandelier made from something resembling "semi-transparent bird feathers." The flames inside were real, ignited by magic—a true fantasy setting.

"Liora, where are we?"

"The royal castle. A weird person insisted we come here. The armored guy told me to go, so… I'm sorry."

"No, it's fine."
