Seirei Gensouki's
Chapter 141: Meeting at the Inn pt2

Rio whispered those words in a cold tone as he brought his face closer to the shopkeeper. After that the shopkeeper smiled brighter.

「Hehehe. W-What's the problem. Hehe, I won't say anything to anyone who comes for it. Hehe"

「Ya, please do that. Anyway, this is best for both of us. You don't have to worry about anything as long as you lend your place 」

「In that case, how about eating? Bread and cheese are free of charge. Wine and beer are another problem 」

「You're right, please let me borrow your kitchen for a while because I'll cook for them」

"Yes nih . Feel free to use kitchen 」

「My apologies for this. . Thank you very much"

"It's okay . Your room is on the second floor, two from the end on the right. Please enjoy your room 」

The shopkeeper said so while smiling widely while looking at the shining large silver coin.

"Yes, that"

Rio nodded at her words and then turned to his friend,

「I got a room. Please follow me"

Saying so, he headed to the assigned room.

Then–,

「This is room five people? The bed is for four people, right! There is no internal key! 」

Christina voiced out screams like those words as they entered the room.

Lined indoors are one wooden table and four beds made of the same material.

The simple-looking bed was almost to the point of crass when compared to the specially made bed that he had always slept in the royal castle.

「I never said that it is one person per bed. It is enough for 5 people if they line up sideways 」

「.................. . You're kidding right? 」

Christina looked at Rio face with a flabbergasted look.

「Unfortunately I did not. There's only this bed but it's pretty good

Rio said it with a wry smile on his face.

Of course when comparing this inn with the inns in the big cities, the quality was actually below average.

But, this place was a post town that served as a relay point during the trip so this inn was definitely the best in the city.

Although this city did have lodging for the rich, those inns would definitely have some sort of connection with the ruling class.

Given the fact that they would be tracked easily as long as they used such a place during their trip, then they decided to use this kind of inn.

「We will forgive ourselves. Even though our rooms are conflicting, try your best not to leave the room. Because it will be troublesome if we engage with strange friends 」

The beauties on the level of Celia and Christina would definitely be seduced by some bad guys.

Since he had to prepare dinner, Rio decided to leave the room together with the other two young men. But, uh,

「T-Wait a minute! How do you allocate a room? 」

Celia called to Rio in panic.

「I am considering a plan to separate between boys and girls but ......」.

Rio replied in a curious tone as he felt there might be some discomfort in his path.

「A-Do you not need a guard, Your Majesty? This room has no 」 key

Celia proposed the plan with an anxious voice.

He stayed at an inn in Galwark kingdom along with Miharu-tachi before, but that inn was the kind where they paid attention to the safety of their guests. Instead, he might receive a mild culture shock upon seeing this inn.

"……You are right . Of course Vanessa is just restless 」

It seemed that Christina was also sympathetic with Celia.

But then, one of the three men had to be in the ladies room.

Christina who had never slept with a man except her father could not help but feel a little resistance.

"Yes, right . Although we will be in a different room, I can guarantee that there are no bad people who will make trouble 」

Rio told her in a calm tone.

But, Christina trembled in disgust just by imagining a foreign man entering the room.

「Uhm, if possible I want Mr. Amakawa to stay in this room with us」

「EH? Me? But……………"

Rio was confused as he never expected to hear those words from Christina.

Even when she lived with Miharu-tachi in the stone house, Rio never slept in the same room as Celia. It was not like it was impossible or she felt nervous as long as it was sharing a bed by sleeping next to each other.

He looked at Vanessa with a troubled face and then he nodded at her.

（What did that nod mean earlier …………. ）

Rio felt a cold sweat on his back as he was unable to find any reason to reject it. A man who was alone would not be able to sleep among the noble and royalty ladies because it would make them feel uncomfortable.

「So, is it okay if you two use another room? 」

Christina continued while ignoring Rio's anxiety.

「KuH, this discrimination is only for ikemen! Unforgivable …………. 」

「S-Senpai. Please stop doing something that will embarrass me 」

When Rei muttered those words, Kouta hurriedly tried to warn him.

「No, this may be klicise」

Kouta dropped his shoulder to hear a reply from Rei.

「Icement? Whatisit? 」

Christina asked that question probably because she could hear Rei.

「AH, uhm, a man .............. with very good appearance 」

Kouta awkwardly explained the simple meaning of the word. Therefore, Christina unintentionally laughed hearing that.

「Ah, so that means. Lord Amakawa is obviously much more interesting among the three of you 」

「Please don't say it right in front of us. Kouta 」

「Senpai, please stop acting like that ………. . 」

Kouta hung his head down in shame

☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★

Two hours later.

On the table in the room where Christina-tachi was staying, many dishes were crammed together with wooden cutlery.

Each of the dishes were like beautifully dressed salads and soft, tender beef soup that would make people drool just by looking at it.

「This dish is really fragrant. I never thought that a delicious dish like this would come out 」

Christina said that while smiling happily. Her body exhausted from constant movement may crave fancy food.

「I don't know if this dish is suitable for your tongue, but. Enjoy"

Everyone asked for a meal at once with Rio's words as a signal. Kouta and Rei muttered 「Itadakimasu」 in a low voice.

They immediately raised an excited voice after they tasted the dish.

「UWAAA! Delicious, too delicious !!! Shiharu-kun! Perhaps even more delicious than the dishes served in the castle! 」

Kouta's eyes glittered with excitement as he tried the beef soup that had been cooked to become soft and tender.

Rio said it with a embarrassed face.

「Fumu, your skills may be the same as the chef in the castle. Although I was somewhat disappointed by the bread provided by this inn, it surprisingly fits this soup 」

"Yes nih . Our stomachs were full and fatigue today also crashed 」

Vanessa did not hold back with her praise and even Christina nodded with a satisfied face.

「Ufu」

Rio was the one who was praised by everyone, but Celia who was sitting next to him was the one who actually felt proud.

"Very appreciated . Vanessa dish is also delicious but not from dynamic taste, it has bland taste 」

Christina smiled happily as she glanced at Vanessa.

「II'ma knight, so I never taught any dish to eat on the battlefield」

Vanessa blushed hearing those words.

A very lively dinner lasted until just before bed.

☆ ★ ☆ ★ ☆ ★

And then, the next morning.

（Haruto, morning will come anytime now. Wake up)

Rio was awakened by Aisia who lives in his body in his spirit form.

When he opened his eyes, the sight of an unknown ceiling faintly glowing in the darkness was reflected in his vision.

（Thank you Aisia）

After saying thank you, Rio flipped his blanket over and was about to get up.

（N?）

He felt a faint weight on his right arm, as he turned to look at the cause. He saw Celia clasping her sleeves tightly.

His calm sleeping face was very innocent and could easily be mistaken as someone younger or from the same generation as Rio.

（He suddenly gripped my arm firmly）

Although it was not like she was not considering the option to forcibly tear apart Celia's hand that was tightly grasped in Rio's arm, she decided to wake him up.

「Please take off my shirt, Cecilia」

「Huu ………. . 」

Although he groaned lightly, in the end he raised the same sleeping breath again. There was no sign of him waking up.

「Cecilia. By all means please. Take off my shirt 」

Rio was trying to wake Celia up a second time.

（In retrospect, sensei weak in the morning）

He remembered that it was almost impossible to wake Celia up in the morning.

Then she decided to lightly shake her little shoulder off the top of the blanket.

Jiggling.

「Uhn? 」

Celia showed a small reaction while letting out a sleepy voice.

「Cecilia. Are you awake? 」

「Uhn, I woke you ~ p」

Celia's eyes blinked repeatedly as she muttered those words.

"Good morning"

It seemed like he was still in dreamland, but since he could understand his intentions, he greeted Rio who woke him up.

「Uhm, Rio. M'rni ~ ng 」

Celia smiled happily as she looked at Rio from her slightly opened eyes. The reason why he called her 「Rio she's probably because she's still half asleep.

Rio looked at Christina-tachi in panic but he heaved a sigh of relief seeing they were still sleeping.

After that, Celia immediately came out of the blanket and hugged Rio's body.

「WHA, Cecilia? 」

Rio's shocked.

"My situation is even worse than before, right?"

Celia was wearing nothing but a cute negligee under her covers.

She had a petite and petite body but her body was still like a proper female body, her body temperature, and her gentle feeling of body made direct contact with her body.

「Nfufu!」

Celia closed her eyes again with a pleasant smile on her face while rubbing her face against Rio's body.

「Uhm, Cecilia. Please wake up . Very kindly 」

Rio pleaded with a somewhat confused voice.

Grabbing Celia's shoulder, she then jerked it a little stronger than before.

After that, Celia's consciousness woke up bit by bit and now her eyes were fully opened.

Celia looked at Rio face from a close distance and then her body stiffened for a while. Moments later――,

「………. . Fue ~? 」

Celia surprised.

「WWWWW-Why are you in this place, Rio? 」

Celia's lips were flapping as if losing her coolness.

Rio smiled wryly and decided to explain the situation to him.

"Good morning .didn't we decide yesterday that I will sleep in this room as a guard? I tried to wake you but ..... It looks like you are still half asleep 」.

「A-I understand. So that's what happened 」

Celia finally recalled the discussion last night that decided that she was going to sleep with Rio.

「Dan, please be careful when calling my name」

Rio silently whispered in Celia's ear.

「Ah, M-Sorry! 」

「No, I should be the one apologizing」

Rio apologized in an awkward voice as he saw Celia apologizing with a reddened face.

「Please stop that. Because I was wrong for sleeping half 」

Celia said so while agitated.

If the other party was a strong-willed girl, he might slap her for unjustified reasons and curse her with unspoken words.

「No, that ……………. 」

Rio felt relieved— The fact that Celia is a calm and calm girl.

After that, the timid Celia in her chest could be seen as an angel, so she could not help but smile at him.

「A-What's with that smile! 」

Celia's cheeks became even redder and needless to say that Christina-tachi was already awake because of their commotion.
