This inn had two floors. The first floor was the diner and the second floor had the private rooms.
There were no things like keys and the rooms had an internal lock only so we needed to take care of our own valuables.
Well magicians had it easy since they could conveniently imagine a key and a lock.
“Umm.”(fran)
While I was thinking such things and was about to go and leave the luggage on the second floor, I was called for.
“Thank you very much.”(fran)
“Like I said, no need to worry. Journey’s are meant to be enjoyed.”(renji)
At least for me, journeys are such things.
Without any objective, roaming around this world leisurely, it broadened my perspective.
In that sense, I’m lucky that I met this girl who gave me a temporary objective for a journey.
Not to mention that I’ll get a reward for completing that objective as well.
The request was the subjugation of an Orc. Considering our pace, there’s still a long way to go.
We have a lot of time, and there’s no need to hurry either. I, for once, am really thinking of fully enjoy this journey.
Bringing out the medal Ermenhilde from my pocket, I flicked it with my finger.
With a dry sound, it twirled and rotated and I caught it with my right hand.
“I like going on journeys. That’s why, I am in fact thankful towards Miss Francesca for coming to me with this request.”(renji)
[For someone who likes journeying, I feel that you were lazing around in that village for way too long though.]
I really like journeying but I also like Sake and lazing around as well.
While giving such an excuse within my mind, I began climbing the stairs.
We had slept outside for only one night but as expected, one doesn’t recover as much while sleeping outside.
After visiting the bar later, I should quickly go to sleep I think.
“Well, Miss Francesca should go by her own pace. I’ll match myself according to that.”(renji)
“..….Yes.”(fran)
Maybe she was thinking of something, her response was a little late.
But, if she had something to say she’d probably do so. Thinking that, I headed towards the room.
She doesn’t complain, doesn’t act on her own, and listens to what I say.
Frankly, there’s nothing more I need in a companion.
After gaining some experience in killing monsters, she should be able to become a good adventurer.
Since she’s a student of the Magic Academy, she’d probably become a scholar or something like that in the future though.
But that’s not something I need to care about.
To help her achieve the objective of successfully killing a monster. That’s my objective.
