The Insurrection of the Inept Hero

Chapter 56: Having Fun

The town that we had come upon was actually famous for being a tourist attraction. Well, that's what I'm saying since it's so well known.

Now that I think of it what is fun in this world?

I've been distracted by so many things that I've forgotten what fun even is. Though, the only time I think I had fun was when I was smashing my enemies to pieces.

I never had fun in my life before well I bet I must've done something when I was younger but that's just a distant memory now.

We first stopped at a clothing store because the girls were bugging me that I've been wearing the same clothes for a long time, not that they've done the same.

"Just try out something new," Ravyn said.

"Can't I just get the same set of clothes? That would be more convenient." I responded.

"No, you're looking bland the more I see you in this outfit. Just get a new set of clothes!"

"Fine."

While the girls went off to buy their own clothing, I was struggling to pick out what clothing was best for me.

I wasn't really much of a fashion-type guy and I don't even know what kind of fashion they have in this world.

Maybe I should get something that isn't so formal looking. Well, that is what I am wearing currently.

Now that I think of it, I'm not wearing attire suited for adventuring. Well, the upper half that is. My boots are fine so I'll keep that. I need a new set of gloves because the one I have on right now has been soaked and dried in blood. Actually, I can even smell the stench. I think I'll just throw it out right now.

Anyway, I eventually found what I wanted to buy. I got a black tunic with a dark blue jacket that was short-sleeved, black leather pants with a black belt with silver accents, and blue fingerless gloves.

I looked kind of plain but after a while, I liked how I looked. The only problem is that I look like I used makeup to make my eyes look darker, but that's just the shadow trims that I was given.

After buying the clothes, I stuffed my old clothes in my spacial storage and went to check up on the girls.

Walking inside, the girls were well still buying their clothes.

Noticing the pile of clothes on the counter, I gulped. I just hope those aren't worth more than 10 platinum coins.

After dropping off our stuff, we were now heading towards a restaurant. The girls complimented my new attire, but I noticed Akane was being really silent. Her silence was a little suspicious. I don't know, I can just tell by her expression.

Anyway, we got ourselves a table and the waiter came to us, asking what we wanted.

I didn't know what to get so I just let Ravyn choose for me since she knows more than I do. Kiyomi and Ravyn already told me what they wanted. Now I was just waiting on Akane.

The only problem was she didn't know how to read.

Well, it was pretty obvious since she couldn't write well so I had to help her.

I moved my chair next to her and read out the choices for her. From the corner of my eye, I noticed her face was getting bright red.

Ohh so that's why.

A mischievous grin appeared on my face but I quickly wiped it off when the others glared at me.

After receiving and finishing our meals, we explored the rest of the town. I was dragged by the girls to countless shops and restaurants, which was alright, just that my expenses weren't doing well with this.

If this keeps continuing, I'm gonna be broke.

But, the point of today is to have fun so I can't really complain if they are having fun.

Before the day ended, we visited one last clothing shop and it was the most expensive one.

I sighed. I'm gonna be broke after this.

As the girls tried on some clothing, I looked out the window at the sky. Dark clouds were slowly approaching us.

Looks like it's going to rain soon, probably gonna be heavy rain judging by the clouds.

I turned and walked over to the girls to tell them to hurry up.

"Hurry up, it's gonna rain soon."

Then the curtains for the changing room slid open and when I turned, I recoiled back with a blushed expression on my face.

Despite seeing their beauty countless times, I just can't get over how pretty they look in different clothing.

Kiyomi was the definition of an angel. She wore a white blouse with a black jacket, a blue skirt, and black heeled knee-high boots.

Ravyn had the aura of an elegant, noble lady. She was wearing a black dress with violet patterns, black stockings, and black heels.

These two were just too beautiful compared to other women.

"How do we look?" Kiyomi asked.

"Y-you two look fine," I responded, trying not to stutter, but my expression said everything.

"Heh, even you can get flustered," Ravyn said while poking my shoulder.

"Anyway, where's Akane?" I asked, changing the subject.

"Akane? Hmm..."

Ravyn walked over to one of the other changing rooms.

"Akane are you done?"

"N-no..."

She took a peek inside and I heard Akane yelp. Strange. Never heard her yelp before.

After a while, Akane finally stepped out and once I looked at her, I almost couldn't take my eyes off her and I would've continued staring if I hadn't been smacked across the face by Ravyn.

Akane was wearing a white cotton dress that fell past her knees and a straw hat that most girls would wear at the beach.

"H-how do I look?"

Hmm, what would be the correct answer for this? I would say she is beautiful, but that won't be enough to describe her charm right now.

"You look..."

I purposely stayed silent as if I was lost at words.

"Hehe, he's speechless." Kiyomi chuckled.

"M-meaning?" Akane questioned.

"He thinks you're pretty," Ravyn answered.

"R-really?"

Akane glanced at me and I gulped.

"Y-yeah."

Akane gave me a cute smile, and I turned away before I got even more flustered.

"A-anyway, I'm guessing those are the clothes you three want so let's pay and get out of here. It's going to rain soon."

After paying for the clothes, we left and headed back to the inn.

Returning to our rooms, I looked out the window as it began raining. There was thunder in the sky and heavy amounts of rain pouring down from above.

Seems it was the right call to hurry up since a storm was approaching. It would've been bad if we got caught up in the rain.

Rumble~

Hmm, even after eating so many tasty foods, it seems I'm not satisfied yet. Guess I should get myself something downstairs.

As I left my room, I walked down towards the first floor. There were more people than before and I'm guessing they were people that got caught in the rain.

When I scanned the area, I noticed a group of cloaked figures who were soaked to the brim. It was almost a funny sight, but there was something about them that made me uncomfortable.

Heroes? No, their numbers are a little short to be them.

Then, when the first figure took its cloak off, I felt a pain in my heart. The pain was almost physical that it was almost as if they were wrapped around in thorns.

The figure, she was none other than Risa.
