章節 4: Chapter 4: first night-shift
| Some alleyway - Orario |
"AAAAHHH!!"
*Clank*
"We got a problem? This mongrel a friend of your?" The adventurer with the mean eyes asked while sheathing his sword.
"EH? No, I've never met her before." Said the white haired boy while waving his hands to deny the man's claim with his black dagger still in his hand.
"Then why are you trying to help her?" Said the man in spite, glaring at the boy.
"Well, because she's a girl." answered the boy innocently.
"Well, that's a stupid reason to die" He said unsheathing his sword again. And leaped at the boy attempting to slash him, while the boy took a defensive stance trying to block the man's attack.
But a golden disc of light flew thru the air hitting the man's sword with such great force that the man had to jump back from the impact. And then a cold voice echoed in the alleyway.
"That's enough." And both of them turned to the source. And then they saw 2 people that were standing atop some stairs. Staring down at the duo.
One was a beautiful elf with green hair, donning a maid outfit. While the other seemed to be a human girl(?) with wavy golden hair running down to her(?) knees, the hair was braided on both sides. She(?) Had contrasting eyes of red and golden but was wearing a waiter outfit.
The elf continued "please, crossing swords in the city limits. You two ought to be ashamed."
'Okay so how did we end up in this situation, you might ask. Well it all started when-'
.
| Flashback - Hostess of fertility |
"Alright girls lets close up!! We need to prepare for the adventurers!! Ryuu!! Go to the market and fetch some ingredients. Here's the list." Mama Mia ordered everyone to prepare and asked Ryuu to do some shopping
"Alright, can Miq come with me? Then he can acquaint and familiarise with the shopkeepers" Mama Mia nodded to Ryuu's request but picked up a tiny detail.
"Miq?? Already using nicknames I see. You two are getting quite close already aren't you." Mama Mia teased but Ryuu kept her pokerface up.
"Yes, Miq is easier to pronounce than Miquella. Now if you'll excuse us." She said before leaving with Miquella by her side.
.
"So where are we going Ryuu?" Miquella asked curiously.
"We are going to the market area." She answered. Before taking a look at the list Mama Mia gave her.
"We need to get some vegetables for tonight's dishes, but that's all."
And like that we went to the market area while Miquella asked some questions here and there. And when they arrived, Miquella was amazed how huge it was.
There were all kinds of shops left and right. Fish, meat, snacks, fruit, vegetables. Everything was there.
They went to a few shops. Got the things Mama Mia asked for and made some small talk with the shopkeepers. They were really friendly. but what Miquella didn't like was was the continually stare that was directed at me.
'I know they are just curious gazes but they're making me feel uncomfortable.'
But just as a stare was directed at Miquella, Ryuu glared back at the person responsible which made them stop.
'Hehehe. At moments like these she really looks like Melania.'
After they were done they went back to the bar until they heard something unexpected. That should not be allowed in the city premise.
| Flashback ends |
"AAAAHHH!!"
*clanck*
Yes they heard a sword hitting something. And with a quick look at each other, they went to the source of the noise. While they were running they heard two people who were talking about something but Miquella couldn't hear them. And then when the duo arrived the man with the sword was charging at a boy with White hair and ruby red eyes. His appearance reminded the child of a white rabbit. But that was besides the point at the moment.
To quickly diffuse the situation, Miquella fired a disc of light at the sword. When the disc and the sword connected, the disc disappeared but the adventurer had to take a step back.
Ryuu was quite surprised when she saw that Miquella had fired some type of magic but quickly recovered herself form her shock. She could ask him later. Then she said in a cold voice.
"That's enough" And both man turned to us. Ryuu continued.
"please, crossing swords in the city limits. You two ought to be ashamed." But the man wasn't having it, it seemed.
"And you ought to keep your fat mouth shut, Now beat it before-" But he couldn't finish his question before another disc of light was thrown at him. But this time with a tint of red in it.
"Be quiet" Miquella said coldly, glaring at the man. His eyes glowing menacingly in a golden-red colour. Ryuu continued.
"We shouldn't be resorting to violence, i tend to get carried away sometimes." All three of us shivered when she finished her sentence. The man looked away and seemed to be pondering before leaving.
"Skank" And then he left
...
"haa" The white haired boy sighed to relief his tension before turning his gaze back at us. Ryuu was heading towards him and i followed.
When we were by his side the boy thanked us.
"Now that was pretty awesome, thank you for saving me."
"We probably shouldn't have interfered." Ryuu said with little emotion
"Oh, that girl. Where did she...go." The boy said confused.
"Which girl?" Miquella asked curiously.
"Well, a girl bumped into me while running away from that man. But she tripped because of me and he wanted to hurt her so I blocked him... But now I don't know where she went. Must've gotten scared and ran off" We looked around a little but couldn't find anyone.
"Well, thanks anyway. But who might you be?" The boy asked me, but Ryuu answered in my stead.
"Bell this is Miquella. A new employee for the Hostess of fertility. And I was showing him around the market area. And Miquella this is Bell Cranell. A level one adventurer belonging to the Hestia familia." Ryuu introduced us to each other.
"Hello, Mister cranell. Pleased to make you acquaintance." Miquella said excitedly.
"Ah, likewise Miss Miquella" Bell replied, but short after silence ensued.
Ryuu was trying her hardest not to laugh, and this was evident by her shaking shoulders and that she put her hand on her mouth. Miquella glared at her but she looked away. While this was happening, bell had an expression that showed he didn't understand what was going on.
"WELL!! Listen up Bell!!" Miquella didn't even bother using honourifics this time.
"I. AM. A. BOY." And silence ensued once more.
This time bell was dumbfounded.
"EH?? With that kind of face? No way." He denied it.
"But i am." Miquella said in a serious tone. Seeing that Miquella was serious, Bell paled at the revelation.
"Wow... Life is so unfair." He said.
"Anyway bell, Syr would be extremely upset if you got hurt. Be careful." She warned him.
"Ah, right" Bell replied hastily.
"Well goodbye then, Mister Cranell." She said before walking away.
"Stay safe, Mister Bell." Miquella said, following Ryuu
"Thank you so much Miss Ryuu, Mister Miquella"
.
After the little incident the duo returned to the pub and filled in the others of what happened.
"Ohh, bell. Always getting in trouble. He worries me so much sometimes." Syr pouted.
"Hmm? You guys know him well?" Miquella asked curiously.
"Well, he comes by every morning to get his lunch that Syr gives to him personally." Ryuu answered.
"Hoo, so Syr has a thing for him huh?"
"Well, what if i do. You jealous?" Syr smiled teasingly and Ryuu glared lightly at her.
"Nope, not in the slightest." I answered truthfully.
"hmpf, you're no fun. At least i get some reaction from Ryuu."
"WHA-" But Ryuu was interrupted...again
"ALRIGHT EVERYONE!! WE'RE ABOUT TO OPEN UP!! SO GET READY!!" Mama Mia ordered them to get ready. The night shift was about to begin.
"Well, good luck Miq." Syr encouraged Miquella which was followed by Ryuu's
"Yes, don't get yourself into trouble."
"hehehe, thanks you guys." Miquella laughed before heading to the front.
He opened the door and saw a line of adventurers waiting to go inside.
"Please come in!! For how many people?" Miquella asked the first costumer with a smile.
He was in a daze for a little bit before recovering. and ordered "Can you give us a table for 5 please"
"Of course, follow me" And so his first night began.
And he has to say, the adventures were a fun bunch to be with. They're fun. They laugh a lot. But there are some mishaps, but nothing to note worthy. And what surprised Miquella the most was that everyone already knew him. But he didn't mind.
After everyone left and the employees cleaned the mess in the bar, Miquella went to his room and lay down on his bed after changing into a nightwear, which was his previously dirty robe that was now cleaned. Removed from the bloodstains.
And before he fell asleep he thought
'Today was fun.'

So I feel like shit and there might be some typos or something but i'm too lazy to proofread. So if you found some leave a comment and i'll correct it tomorrow, thanks.
Also Miq will be joining a familia after the war game between Hestia and Apollo which he will participate in. He can show off a little in the games. AND he will use his weapon there but the rest are spoilers. Also right now the Loki familia is winning and Hestia is in second.
Also question: Do i release his status already in the auxiliary volume or do i wait till then? AND
do i give the skills a description of what they do or not?
That's it
Anyway thx for reading, hope you enjoyed, Leave a comment, Leave a review. An some stones if you have to spare.
