Chapter 15: Greater Demon Hunting

It had been an eventful day.

One thing led to another making me feel tired both mentally and physically. I requested for an inn and asked them to just leave me alone to rest while they tour around the capital.

I tucked in early and closed my eyes. I dispelled the random thoughts in my head and visited the world of dreams...

Based on my senses, I haven't even slept for an hour, however, my eyes suddenly opened. I don't know why. When I looked around, darkness covered the surroundings. Is it evening already?

I picked up my glasses and forced my lethargic body to stand up. Then, I slowly treaded towards the hall on the first floor. I checked at the counter and asked for a late dinner. It seems that I have slept for over 6 hours.

I headed towards the dining hall and waited for my dinner. To my surprise, the three girls were there, eating their meals too.

"Nazo, good evening."

"Come here! Over here!"

"...... G-Good evening..."

Mary, Nina and Blaire called in turn. What caught my attention was the clothes they were wearing. If I am to borrow words from earth, it would be similar to a negligee. Their semi-transparent blouse made it easy to see the tank top beneath it. The sight was very provoking, especially on Blaire's case. It was explosive.

"... Good evening... What's with the clothes?"

"This? Blaire chose it! Looks good right?!"

Nina explained as she stood and twirled around once. Since she was wearing a tank top matched with a short pants, surely, the exposure was high. However, in Nina's case, it didn't look provocative. Rather, it boosted her lively charms.

"... It looks good alright... I'm asking why you're all wearing that here..."

I rephrased my question. This time, Mary answered with a smile.

"Since nobody else other than us are currently renting a room in this inn. Also, the staff here are all female. So there's no problem."

"... I'm a man you know?"

"But you don't mind this right?"

"... Well... It's true that I don't particularly mind though... Wait... Isn't that supposed to be the other way around...?"

I really couldn't guess what's running on these girl's minds.

I reluctantly sat down on the vacant chair between Mary and Blaire.

I tried hard, really hard, just to ignore the temptations beside me. Luckily, not long after, my dinner was served.

It was a luxury meal if I may say.

A large slice of steak garnished with many vegetables. A bowl of soup. Something soft looking, probably for dessert, and a glass of wine.

I asked the waitress but it seems that it's a non-alcoholic wine. When I asked for the "real" wine, both Mary and Nina stopped me. Was there rules against drinking here? When I asked, it seems that alcoholic wine was expensive and that we probably can't afford it. I nodded in apprehension.

Since we don't have any particular topic for discussion, I talked to them about the job I got when we went to the adventurer's guild. I was a bit surprised upon seeing their reactions.

"... Demon... Hunter..."

"Are you really fine? You don't feel anything weird?"

"I'll sue that wench for not explaining things thoroughly..."
