Aias: from a world of kaijus to a world of fantasy and magic

Chapter 51

Waking up in the morning in the new house I had bought yesterday, I had a strong desire to not get out of bed because this bed was just too comfortable not to.

Maybe I should sleep in for the day. Yeah... that sounds like a great idea.

Choosing to sleep in the quiet, peaceful morning, I finally got up when my stomach grumbled. I went to the office where I dumped most of my stuff; I took out some rations that I hadn't touched for a while.

It didn't look moldy and smelled fine, so I decided to eat it as lunch since it was already noon while drinking some tea. It's better to finish it than let it go bad.

I should buy some groceries since I have a small cellar now to store some food.

Speaking of it, should I change into a new set of clothes? Since I ran away, I have been wearing the same set of clothes without changing them for days at a time since I'm now living as a commoner, who generally doesn't have a lot of clothes to change. In addition to that, I also have to do my laundry in secret because I don't want people to figure out my identity or think I'm a creep for wearing girl's underwear.

At first, I was pretty grossed out by having to wear the same sets of clothes for days at a time, which I had to get used to, but now I have a house where I can wash my clothes more frequently, so why not?

Rummaging around the corner of the office where I threw all my stuff, I noticed I didn't have any more clean clothes left. I had 4 sets of clothes when I came to Acton, but now I have 3 after fighting the Owlbear.

I am not about to put on some dirty clothes because I find it even more disgusting than wearing the same clothes for days at a time.

Didn't Hutch say he can deliver if I ask? Yeah, I should write a letter to him because I desperately need some new clothes. Guess I have to do laundry today.

I should go to the Adventurer Guild first to send the letter, then go grocery shopping, and start moving my things from my room at the inn I was staying at to my house again.

Looking around the office, I eventually found a stack of papers and a pen to write with. I took one blank sheet of paper and began writing on it, starting with saying hi to Hutch, then how I had been, and telling him I needed new clothes, preferably quickly.

After writing that, which was brief, I wrote down what I wanted to buy from him, which was a new set of clothes, specifically ones that are slightly bigger than the ones I currently have since I might be in my growth spurt.

I wonder how many I should buy. Looking through my coin pouch, I went through the coins I had, and eventually, I pulled out a gold coin.

I think this should do. I went back to writing and said to give me how many sets of clothes a gold coin would buy me, including other fees since I'm asking him to make it a rush order, then keep the rest as thanks.

After writing the letter and putting it in an envelope with a gold coin and the name of the shop I was sending it to, I thought to myself that since I had already written a letter, I should write one to Rain as well to give her an update.

I did just that, writing about what was going on with my life to her, minus Alice since that was a secret and the house I just bought.

Finishing writing that letter and sealing it up in an envelope with the letter addressed to Rain, I made my way to the adventurer guild.

At the doors to the adventurer guild, I went in and saw that Iris was here today as usual, so I went to her line and waited.

Once it was my turn, I walked up to her counter.
