Ch16: The Goddess of the Moon

Oriente 6, Heaven

When I woke up again, my room at the inn was back, it was daylight. I was lying on a futon, checking that my wound was bandaged and although it hurt a little it was not serious, as it had been treated. A noise came from one of the doors, it was Momo who had a cup with ice cream, she was looking at me surprised, so much so that she even dropped the spoon.

"idiot"
"Are you awake!"
"Don't hit me with these scares!"
"You almost made me drop my ice cream"

"Are you mad about that and not about the trouble I got into?"

"With your luck it is normal that you have one or the other encounter"
"But you must be more careful, you have been recovering from several injuries and yesterday you tried to bleed to death and frozen"
"Are you trying to break a record in how much trouble can you get into before anyone else?"

"I swear I was only trying to go to town and return for the afternoon, I did not think it would take long".

"But it's almost winter now, you were lucky that a snowfall did not surprise you with those clothes!".
"Now the good news I was able to get the portal working for a moment yesterday".
"The bad news is that it was in emergency mode because we had to bring blood from the headquarters to give it to an idiot who almost died in the forest, because his body has a rare type of blood that is not easy to get. So the power converter that was not calibrated still could not support it and burned the power source, so now it will take longer to fix it and I did not bring another power source so I will have to order it and wait for it to arrive, which maybe it will take me a month".

"A MONTH!"
"I can't wait that long!"
"I have to go back as soon as possible!"

"So think better of it before you do something silly"

I was still talking to Momo when someone else came into our room. It was Urakaze, with his armor, although now he was using a lighter one with fewer plates, in addition to a hunting bow and arrows.

"With your permission"
"You're better it seems"
"You have no idea how scared you gave me"
"I almost thought that I had already lost the hotel completely"

"Thanks for your concerns" I replied.

"A little more and you don't get out of that"
"The wound was torn a lot from walking injured and you lost a lot of blood"
"Although it seemed strange to me that Momo knew how to treat you and what medicine would work for you"

"Well it's part of my job to keep my boss alive, although it would be easier for me if he took better care of himself" answered the crystal angel.

"After a blood transfusion and a little medicine we managed to heal you from the wound"
"Since then, Momo and I have taken turns taking care of you and sleeping"
"The wound is completely healed and unmarked thanks to the exceptional help of the manager of this hotel"
"Which would make a ridiculously high fee, so high that your father will be forced to return this place to me."
"Although I'm afraid we don't have good painkillers so it might hurt a bit for now. But don't worry it's nothing serious"

"But what was it that attacked?"
"If he was able to hurt you, it means that he must be exceptional"Momo asked.

"I don't know who it was"
"I got lost in the forest and thought about spending the night in a temple near a river."
"But then a young woman appeared, it seems that she came to hunt"
"Since it seemed like she was from around here, I asked her for help to get out of there and she even accompanied me. But after walking for a while we started talking."
"I told him that Urakaze has an inn around here and just when he heard this he changed completely and began to attack me"
