Chapter 6: The Coming of the Storm

"Hey, did you hear? It seems that the missing previous city lord has come back!"

"The previous city lord Rick? He's back?"

"Yeah, I've heard of it. I have a friend in the city guards who personally saw it. Not only is he back, he also brought along a lot of powerful deities!"

"Don't tell me...he's planning to retake the city lord position?"

"Could be. Some say he's going to control from behind the scenes though."

After reuniting with the others, we went to find a good inn to stay for the day and ate in a nearby tavern.

Since we got here, everyone seemed to be talking the same topic, this being the return of the previous city lord who was supposedly missing for a long time now.

Not that it has anything to do with us though.

"Here are your orders." (???)

While we try and listen for any important rumors, the waitress came at the side while bringing our food and drinks.

Hmm...is this beer? Ugh, I'm really starting to miss soft-drinks...I wonder if I can create one with [Water Creation]?...Aaand I don't know what they're made of...

Well, I'm not really a beer guy so I'll just go with water.

"Hehe, thanks little sis Kaye~" (Momo)

"Big sis Momo, no need to thank me! I'm not the one who cooked your food." (Kaye)

While we were off selling our stuffs, it seems Momo visited some taverns and befriended a lot of people. She was also the one who recommended this place.

This Kaye girl is around 13 years old...at least, her appearance looks that way. She has yellow hair and eyes and looked very pleasing to the eyes.

In fact, some people here seem to only visit here because of her. Though, no one seems to have succeeded in dating her.

"Little Kaye, whatever you do, don't join the [Frozen Heart Sect]. Please." (Gabriel)

...And she has a big rack as well...for a 13 year old...

"Hehe, even if I want, I don't have enough money for that. Plus, my talent is normal." (Kaye)

Really? A 13 year old mid [Demigod Stage]? Normal?

Ughhh...the logic of this place...

Well, not like I can speak.

"So Lucas? How's your assessment? Harem material?" (Momo)

"Why do you always think that way for every girl we met!? And stop elbowing me!" (Lucas)

"But she's cute right?" (Momo)

Seeing Momo pointing at her, Kaye's face blushed and averted her gaze.

"See? She likes you!" (Momo)

"Hey! She blushed because she was embarrassed for suddenly being called and pointed as cute!" (Lucas)

"So you also think she's cute?" (Momo)

This girl...hmph, two can play at this game.

Feeling a little mischievous, I pinched Momo's chin with my index and thumb as I stare at her in the eyes.

"I think you're cute." (Lucas)

...That...was a lot more embarrassing than I thought.

"See? You also blushed." (Lucas)
