Isekai ni Kita Boku wa Kiyoubinbode Subaya-sa Tayorina Tabi o Suru

The bar we went to was called the Fang & Claw . Perhaps the most fitting kind of name for an establishment catering to adventurers, or so I think, as I push open the doors and walk inside . Well, this was surprising . Unlike the rather wild-sounding name, the interior had a relaxing mood and dim, atmospheric lights . As it was much the same at the Silver Sky Inn, I wasnt sure if this was tradition or the new fashion in the city . We looked around a little shyly until the person that we were looking for waved us over . It was Rex .

Did you wait long?

Nah, just arrived . I am glad you have come as well, Daniela . Now, lets have a drink!

I will start with ale .

Daniela ordered to the barman, and so I ordered the same thing .

Pretty relaxing in here, eh? Adventurers dont come around here too often because of it . Those men drink to become wild . But men like me, we come to enjoy the taste .

Rex says with a shrug . The bar in Fhiraldos guild had always been a rowdy place . I didnt hate that atmosphere to be honest, but I didnt hate this either . I saw myself becoming a regular in a place like this .

We didnt wait long before the drinks arrived . Daniela and I grabbed our mugs and faced Rex and the others .

A toast then?

Yes, to our meeting .

To that .

Clank . The mugs lightly hit each other and were then emptied by all . I wasnt the biggest drinker, but this went down easily . The alcohol content seemed to be moderate and it did not leave a burning sensation in my throat .

I think we have some introductions to do then . As you know, I am Rex . A swordsman .

The first of the group that I had seen in the forest . He was also the first to attack the wyvern .

I am Darius . You have my grat.i.tude for what you did .

He was the man with the greatsword who had carried Danny . That had been an incredibly tense moment .

And I am Wesley . Thank you for helping us .

Benny . Im a swordsman like Wesley and Rex .

They were all advance guards I couldnt help but think as I shook hands with them .

Farid . Im good with the shortsword .

Simon . I use the bow, but I am generally in charge of carrying the luggage .

One rear guard and six advance guards Oh well, I and Daniela were generally the same . Though, we were also capable of ranged attacks .

Its nice to meet you all . I am Asagi .

Daniela . I have also been granted the name Light Wind .

She was already boasting about her new name . And it seemed to have been effective .

Hey, hey, you have an alias Bah, how lucky

I wonder if I shall ever receive one . I doubt it will be any time soon

Several of them voiced their envy of such an honor . Was it really that great? Having an alias?

In fact, Asagi has also been granted one, Silvergreen .

Daniela said the most unnecessary things .

Asagi, you, that is incredible!

No That means we were saved by an adventurer with an alias!

Will you shake my hand, Silvergreen!

Uh, I wasnt exactly happy about it and Im not shaking your hand!

They all gathered around and cheered loudly . Get away from me!

Daniela was quite distracted by her steak, which had arrived . Well, this relaxing atmosphere was now ruined!

And like that, there was boisterous laughter, yet it was still slightly quieter than other taverns as we ate and drank . The food here was so good, that Daniela and I were practically racing to see who could stuff themselves first . The dishes of meat were especially great . I had seen annoying reporters on TV talk about meat being so soft you dont need to chew!, but I had to now admit that such meat did exist . It was so delicious . I swore to become a regular here as I stuffed myself with meat and ale .

Before we knew it, the other customers had left, and it was now almost midnight .

Well, we should call it a night soon .

Yeah . Thanks for inviting us today, Rex .

I stood up and thanked him for introducing us to such a good place . Rex wrapped an arm around my shoulder and roared Dont mention it! into my ear with barely controlled laughter .

After leaving the tavern and separating with Rex and the others, we returned straight to our inn . Nighttime at Spiris was lively, but Daniela and I were so stuffed and had no energy to stop by anywhere else . We arrived very late at the Silver Sky Inn, but the lights at the entrance were still lit . And when we opened the door, Joshua was working behind the front counter .

Ah, Asagi . And Daniela .

Good evening . Are you working?

Joshua put down the pen he was using to write and smiled .

Yes . Just getting the accounts organized .

But its so late .

Oh, no . This is my job . But I am just about to finish . Here is your key .

I was impressed with how smoothly he handed us our room keys . There wasnt even a short pause in the conversation . A real hotelman .

Thank you . Please dont work yourself too hard .

Ah, thank you very much . I am off to bed then .

He says with a chuckle and starts to put away the doc.u.ments . I couldnt help but laugh as well .

Have a good night .

And you as well .

We ended that polite interaction and headed off to our rooms . I was on the third floor, but so was Daniela . Though, our rooms were separate . I handed Daniela her key and entered my room . I hadnt noticed as I was walking and talking, but apparently, I was quite drunk . And it only took a few minutes after falling into bed for me to travel into the world of dreams .

And in the dream, I was working at the convenience store . The uniform I was wearing felt very nostalgic as I dealt with midnight customers . This was a time when the complaints tended to start coming . Salarymen who had to work late hours . Taxi drivers who had to deal with drunk customers . Hosts and hostesses who stopped by the convenience store after work . There was quite a variety of customers at midnight .

I was waiting idly as I had finished cleaning and everything else when a certain customer entered the store . The person was wearing sweatpants and shirt and held their wallet in their hand as they stuffed snacks and drinks into a basket . The customer killed some time at the magazine rack before finally coming to the counter .

Good evening .

Being ignored by customers was the norm . The ones that spat out a barrage of complaints were the special kind . And so it didnt bother me . All I needed to do was scan the barcodes .

That will be 2,150 yen .

Yes, thats 3,000 yen then . Here is the change . 850 yen . Thank you .

I offer the bag of groceries . But the customer does not take it .

Is something the matter?

Um

The customer stares at me silently . I stare back without thinking, and it suddenly hits me that she is incredibly beautiful . But there was also something familiar about her . Was she famous?

Asagi .

Huh?

AsagiAsagi

Huh?

AsagiAsagi

The customer calls my name . I didnt understand how she could have known . But the more I think, a fog seems to fill my head, and nothing comes together .

AsagiAsagi

Sorry? Uh, excuse

The customer grabs my hands instead of the bag . The hands are cold, and as pretty as she is, this is slightly eerie .

Ah, could you please let

AsagiAsagi

L-let go, just let go!

Asagi!

Ahhh, stop!

The arms that are clutching my hands begin to distort as my vision becomes blurry . My body is swaying as if I am floating in water .

Asagi! Hey, Asagi!

Customercustomer

Who are you calling a customer! Wake u-, aghh, sto-, let go of me you fool!

Bahhwhat?

My eyes slowly opened and the mysterious customer transformed into Daniela . She was practically hovering over me . Her face was bright red . I didnt understand what was going on . But the dream had been so frightening, yet the familiar face in front of me now was somehow terribly nostalgic and dear to me .

Asagi? I, mmm!

Before I knew it, my arms were wrapped around her and our lips had pressed together .
