God's an Adventurer: Volume I

Chapter 63- What's Next?

Sayu sat patiently staring off into the window. Kami had left once more without saying a word last night so she had decided to stick with the rest of the group. They had decided to head on over to the Adventurer Guild to check in and find any further instructions. She herself could care less about this procedure, she just wanted to be where ever Kami was.

She sighed heavily thinking back on the past events. Kami seemed to just do whatever he pleased here and wouldn't bother telling her anything which had begun upsetting her. It was understandable if he wouldn't tell the rest of these mortals what he was up to but she should be different. Either way, maybe it was time she stopped mopping around because of such a thing and try and act a bit more independent. It was clear he wanted her to stand on her own two feet a bit more so she would have to bear with it.

"No signs of Sir Kami still I see" Asahi spoke as he walked up to her and gave her a gentle look.

Sayu coughed a bit and spoke in the most neutral voice she could possible muster up at that point.

"He must be busy again. It's expected from someone like him of course."

"Pft, he's probably wandering around like an idiot and got lost. He'll find his way back here sooner or later. This is probably the one building he would recognize in this shit hole."

Hiromichi slummed on his chair.

He seemed bored ever since the party had ended last night. Now that the city was in stable condition and no more threats seemed to be coming their way the peace they had achieved seemed a bit dull to him.

He and the rest of them had done minimal fighting when it came to the important stuff. Most of the work had been handled by Sayu and Kami but even then, there had been more action that this.

The Adventurer Guild was taking its time recovering from all the commotion. With a huge influx of returning adventurer's and a delay on quests for over two weeks they seemed perplexed as to what to do.

Hiromichi figured they should just be handing out quests left and right but it seems it wasn't so easy as he thought.

Himari sat silently but with a happy expression swinging her legs back and forth.

Considering how much stats she was getting from Kami she figured he was ever so close to being able to break this curse from her. She half expected him to walk in any second now and snap his fingers instantly breaking it as he usually does with any situation. Through her eyes the troublesome situations of a normal person were probably simple obstacles to a Hero like him. There was a small sense of pride and happiness knowing Kami had chosen her as a companion.

Marie on the other hand was feeling a bit flustered. She wasn't sure what was going on but she consistently felt the need to be next to Kami as well. Their interactions had been short and he would mostly go on his own and do what was needed but his actions spoke to her heart for some reason. It was a strange feeling, at first, she simply thought it was admiration towards the Godly being he was but she grew to find it strange that it was almost obsessive at this point.

"Is this what you guys did when I wasn't around? Slum about that guy not being around?" Keishi asked in an annoyed tone.

He had stayed purposely away from them to see their reaction when he did so but was thoroughly upset when he learned, him leaving had barely been brought up and it was mostly Kami who was the talk of the group. It pissed him off but now feeling defeated decided it was just best to stay with Marie and Asahi and hope they decided to break free from his group at some point.

There was one main reason why he disliked Kami and that was because of Marie. Ever since she met him, she nearly groveled on the ground for him and treated him with utter respect. It was borderline admiration and he couldn't help but feel jealous. Keishi had always thought Marie would look up to him for any situation at hand and now seeing her attention diverted from him to Kami was pissing him off.
