When Fiona and I settle our things.We decided to head out to see the capital of Astaeseon Kingdom. When we got down we saw Paul standing outside waiting for us.

"Ahh, Are you girls going to the capital now?"
Paul ask

"Yes" Fiona enthusiastically replied

"Alright, I'll show you guys to the Adventurer Guild before I take a quest"

After that conversation.Paul show us the way to the capital. He show first the Adventurer's Guild. When we walk in the guild, eyes were on us.Some stared with curiosity and some paid no mind and get back to whatever they were doing. The Adventurer's Guild consist the reception desk and there are also a counter that offer you alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks in the far left corner. Then not too far was the request board.

"This is the Adventurer's Guild" Paul said then walk to the receptionist desk.She approach the girl and introduce us.

"Akina?" Paul called out

"Yes, How may I help you?"

"Let me introduce you this is my daughter Fiona" he said while pointing at Fiona and then he then point to me "And that is Koharu.This girls will be attending in the Adventurer's Academy. When they finish the school and become an Adventurer.Please dont make them do a hard quest."

Akina just nodded her head and said:

"Nice to meet you Fiona and Koharu. Im Akina, The receptionist. If you have any question. Please don't hesitate to ask me. You'll be in my care when you finish school after all" she said while smiling.

"Alright " Fiona response with a smile while I just nod.

When Paul finish introducing us to his colleagues.He said that he was going to take a quest. Fiona and I have nothing better to so we leave the Adventurer's Guild and take a troll in a capital.Fiona drag me along with her. We go sightseeing, shopping and even watch a street performance. It was quite tiring though I didn't voice it out because it looks like Fiona is having fun.When we saw a cafe I suggested that we stop by because we havent eaten anything yet.

When we enter the cafe, we were greeted by a homey and comfortable atmosphere. We saw an open sit near the window and we choose to sit there. When we finally got to sit, the cafe's waiter approach us and take our order. After a minute, I finally decided on an order, I go with the chocolate shortcake with a tea. Fiona go with a strawberry shortcake with a tea. When the waiter take our order, she bow before leaving.

"Ahh, today sure was fun right? The capital is so nice and lively" Fiona stated, excitement was shown in her voice.

"Yeah, though in my opinion It is lacked in entertainment." I stated without any emotion

"Did you not have fun? Sorry I just drag you along anywhere that I want." She sadly stated I was about to deny her words but before I could deny she exclaimed " I know!, it is still 3:30. We still have 1 hour and 30 minutes. Lets go anywhere you wanted next" she stated

"No, its fine"

"But, you didn't look like you were not having fun.We should do something you like" she insisted

"No, its fine there is nothing in particular that interest me and besides I'd be lying if I said I didn't have fun"

"Really?" She ask me to confirm

"Yes, just seeing you having fun is enough" I said with a straight and no emotion face.

This cause Fiona to blush but before she could retort, our order arrive.

"Here's your order 1 strawberry shortcake, 1 chocolate shortcake and 2 tea. Enjoy your stay" the waiter said before leaving

I look at my food but Im kind of disappointed. It so plain I'd say.There are no icing or garnishes its just a cake a plain one. I look at Fiona who is red and I got worried so I ask:
