Star Inn.
As usual even after Xi occupied this place, this inn was still as clean as it was. There was not even anyone other than him staying at this inn.
Do not know why, but this is strange because a place that is so clean and neat like this is even deserted visitors. Is it time for this inn to close? If that happens, then what will be the fate of Mina if this inn is closed? Will he be the ones on the side of the road like that? Hmmm I don't think it is.
“You are diligent as always. Even it's night, and you're still working.”
“Hehehe, there is nothing I can do but take care of this place. I wanted to be an adventurer, but I was aware of my abilities, and I had no talent for it.”
“Once?”
Mina nodded slowly confirming it. After all, Mina was basically not a person who was used to being in a fight. People like him, would only be a burden on the team even if he could cook a good meal. That might help, but it's a different story if it enters a fight.
Because of this, Mina remained firm in her position and lived her life as a caretaker and owner of the Star Inn. It is the only source of currency or search source for it to survive.
“Oh, yes. I heard you went into the woods this afternoon. Are you okay?”
“As you can see, I'm fine.”
“Hmmm.”
“Why is your face shrinking like that? Is there something?” Xi asked Mina. From the facial expression that Mina showed, it looked like she was a curious person, and wanted to ask something.
“For so long I have only heard the wind but have never felt it at once.” Answer Mina. “Xi, because you are an adventurer, you have faced monsters right?”
Answer him with a slow nod. Xi wondered what Mina wanted to ask herself.
“Is the Monster creepy?” Mina asked out of curiosity.
How innocent he didn't know that. No. gabe... He should have known clearly about it. Even if he was an ordinary citizen, he would have known if the monster was dangerous as well as creepy.
There may be people who don't know that. Even those who lived in a remote village, knew how dangerous and how scary the monsters were.
‘Isn't it clear? Did he ask that because he had never met a monster in person?’ Xi wondered to himself. But what can he do? Even if he tried to dodge it was very funny.
Breathe in deeply. “Even if I don't answer it, you must have known it clearly right?”
With an innocent face and looking like a sweet woman who was not tarnished by the outside world she retorted. “Ohw, so like that huh? Hehe, I'm sorry, I thought the monster was cute and adorable.” While scratching his head that does not itch.
True, not all monsters look creepy. However, that does not mean that those who look sweet and funny are not dangerous. In fact, monsters with these characteristics can be said to be very dangerous monsters.
Why call it a very dangerous monster?
That's because, monsters that look sweet, cute, and funny are monsters that are very vulnerable and unpredictable. If they were truly dangerous monsters, they could kill humans with their sweet appearance. By making someone an adventurer off guard, so as to approach them without any vigilance. Such adventurers are easy prey for monsters with such characteristics.
Sweet, cute, and adorable monsters might not be so good at fighting. However, they are very good at camouflaging, and deceptive, sudden or suprise attacks are his forte. Hiding their true nature in their adorable appearance.
False appearance behind its false nature. They were a kind of terrifying monster. Beginner adventurers must be aware of them.
“Haha, really? But, I guess such a monster exists as well.”.
BUKK! “Is that true?!!” Saut Mina after when Xi finished speaking. Spontaneously he also hit the table strongly enough that the sound of his punching was clear.
Xi who was shocked even to the point of sweating was in disbelief.
“ A ah... Yep... Might as well... Yep... “ Xi seemed hesitant to answer him. What will happen if Xi gives a definite challenge. ‘I'm afraid he'll jump in and go out looking for them. At that time, maybe he won't come back again.’
“If that's true, I want to have one. You know, spending time in this place alone is so boring. At least I want a friend or a place for me to talk when I'm lonely.” Mina was really expecting that. Because he was unable to fight, so he did not plan to look for him outside because it was extremely dangerous. “I hope I can get it..”.
Xi thought about it, maybe having a friend like that wasn't entirely bad. Xi held his chin, and thought.
He currently did not have such monsters. Only, he has some... There aren't many laron eggs in his inventory.
‘If I give it some... No...’ That requires some careful consideration. Given before, Laron was a pretty dangerous Insecta type/type monster. Attacks on humans may also be unavoidable.
Seeing the strange-looking Xi seemed to think of something. Mina bent her head while asking. “What are you thinking? Is there a problem?”
Hearing that question made him wake up from his daydream. Now he knew he was just worried about someone. Why is it like that? In fact, Xi also wanted Mina not long ago just to know.
“??, Auction? You mean the auction held by the Black Rose Auction House?”
“Yes. You seem to know that?”
“Hmm. I think everyone knows.”, too Mina doesn't seem to like talking about this much. I don't know what the reason is. “What are you going to do there?” Ask Mina.
“I?”
“Iya.”
“I found something interesting there, and I intend to get it.”
Hearing that, Mina looked doubtful. I don't know what Xi wants, and what he needs. Even if the item or whatever is there, it will not be easy to get it.
That was because, the one who followed this auction was not one or two people alone. There were many people taking part in the auction this time around, moreover, the magic item would also be at the auction in two more days.
Of course it attracts the attention of various parties. Maybe not just ordinary adventurers who participate. However, some people are rich, and have status. Particularly were the children of noble families, as well as some adventurer members of the famous Guild in Aiter City. Or maybe even a Guild Master himself would be down in this regard.
Obviously this competition will not be profitable. Moreover, Xi is just an ordinary person, of course the money owned is not as much as people of high status.
Coupled with the fact that Xi was a copper-ranked adventurer, which was the lowest rank of all the existing ranks. Obviously that makes Mina pessimistic. Mina was afraid that Xi would lose her interest when she found out how big and vast this world was.
Little people like them, will not be able to see the end of the world.
