The mission became quite profitable, I acquired much money for slaying the Manticore, mainly gold coins, which I added to my previous rewards. Let's say that money is no longer an issue.
I am currently A-ranked, and I have a platinum plaque hanging around my neck, but now there are no missions that could raise my Rank. Therefore, I completed B and C-rank missions. It was slow, but maybe I can achieve an S-rank.
"Why are you so serious?" Missa asked from across the counter.
"Nothing, just thinking." I replied, sipping my ale.
"Do you mind telling me what those thoughts are?" Missa leaned on the counter, smiling at me.
"I am just thinking about how beautiful your eyes are."
"Oh, thank you!" Missa's face turned red as she looked away.
"Thank you for what? I said nothing." I replied confused.
"You dummy, don't play with maidens' hearts like that." Missa joked, poking the tip of my helmet.
"Seriously? So why don't you tell me what you wish me to say? Do you want me to compliment your beautiful hair? Your wonderful smile? Or do you prefer something more physical?"
"Not here, I'm on my work schedule." Missa's face turned even redder as she looked around.
What does she mean by that? I said nothing.
"Could you bring me another drink?" I said, offering my mug.
"Of course, I will be right back!" Missa stammered as she left to refill my mug.
Weird...
"HAHAHA!"

"HAHAHA!" Eupherbia chuckled from inside Edric's pouch.
"Humans, it's so easy to mess with their feelings! Let's see if I can find something to have fun." Eupherbia said, poking her head out of Edric's bag and looking around.
The tavern was in its usual condition, with people drinking, eating, talking, and gambling until Eupherbia saw something that had the potential to generate an interesting situation.
Two circular tables; one close to the other and with a man sitting at each table, their chairs back to back.
"Hm... Let's see what I can do."
Quickly, Eupherbia slipped out of Edric's bag and flew upward before anyone saw her until she reached the rafter between the wooden beams that supported the tavern, landing and walking on it until she stood above the tables.
"It is time to start." Eupherbia said as she pointed a finger at one of the men's head's back. Magic formed on her fingertip, firing a small beam toward its target, being equivalent to a strong slap.
"OUCH!" The man at the table on the right screamed as his head flew forward, drawing the attention of the people around him.
"What the hell was that?!" The man demanded from the second one at the table beside him as he rubbed his sore head.
"I don't know what you're talking about." The second man replied confused.
The first man, seeing the confusion on the second one's face, returned to his seat as he mumbled.
"HAHAHA!" Eupherbia laughed and pointed her finger at the second man, firing another beam.
"DAMN IT!" The second man yelled, turning to the first man.
