Adventurer Guild, cafeteria area...

I sat at my table, drink in hand

I sat at my table, drink in hand. Potion sat next to me with her hands together on her lap. On our table, a coin bag of about 4,000 eris was just sitting there. And at the opposite end of table...

"I guess I'll take that money now...thanks for carrying me back here!" spoke the hooded mage as she tried to grab the bag of coins.

 Potion and I grabbed the other end of the bag. 

"Excuse me. This is our bounty!" I clarified as I pulled the other end hard along with Potion.

"Yeah! It's mine!" added Potion.

"Ours...you mean ours, right?" I asked her.

"Yeah, sure! Whatever! Just pull the bag with me!" exclaimed the annoyed Potion.

PUUUUULLLLL!!!!

"Buuuuuuttt...I killed all the Absorb Bears, sooooo...." 

The hooded girl pulled harder on her end of the bag.

"But we accepted the kill quest, so the bounty is ours!!!!" Potion roared as she pulled our end of the bag even harder.

Oh my god! This is going nowwhere.

I let go of my end of the bag and stood from the table.

"LADIES! Ladies...let's quiet the hell down, now. Shall we?"

The two girls let go of their ends of the bag. 

Potion childishly pouted.

"HMPH!" she sounded angrily with her arms crossed.

The hooded girl simply picked up her staff and hugged it.

"Fine..." the hooded girl melancholically replied.

I sat back down in my seat and just before I touched the chair...

"IT'S NOT FAIR!!!! THIS GIRL DOESN'T NEED THE MONEY!!!! SHE'S MEGU..."

"SHHHHH!!!!" shushed the hooded girl.

The hooded girl checked if any of the adventurers were staring at them. 

I checked too. No one was looking. Everyone was either eating or chatting loudly. We're safe.

"Potion!" I scolded as quietly as possible. "You can't just shout her name! You know which party she's a part off, dummy!"

Potion whispered in my ear.

"That's genius to you, dumbbell! I know, okay?!?! But she must be rich! She is..."

And under the hood we spotted two glowing crimson-red eyes.

"...Megumin the Explosion Mage after all..." she finished as quietly as she could.
