Chapter 66 66 Silver
[El's POV: ]
We were in the 'good inn' that I mentioned before, and yes, it was our favorite inn in this entire capital city.
And it was a pretty cheap place too. Nothing like what they have in the upper plains that only run on Oz.
"From what I had heard when I was a kid, this place was one of the best places that even some of the foreign royals prefer.
Haaa… I never thought I would stay in a place like this."
"Well… this is alright. We will see better places in the future."
Giving Eva a little smirk and a wink, I grabbed the hand that was trying to run away.
"El…"
We rented out two rooms for a week. One for the two of us and one for Eva and Nes.
They were pretty big with a good enough space so the two pure people can have their pure bonding time while the two of us do what we wanted here.
'But everyone is in our room right now since it is dinner time.'
We had already prepared the food, and though there was a little episode with the manager of this place regarding the use of the kitchen, when we placed a bag of gold coins on their counter, they started treating us like any of their normal VIPs.
'Funny bastards…'
And when we bought two of their most expensive rooms for an entire week, the look the manager had was pretty good.
I had fun there. Especially when I threw that bag of pocket change at his face.
It was delightful~. But nothing compared to seeing the little chaotic faces of the three of my companions when they almost thought I was going to kill those bastards.
'Hehe.'
So, we were in our room now, waiting for the little beverages. And as always, I was in my favorite place, in my warm salvation.
"At least your hands…"
"What hands~?"
His lap was the best, and he knew the eternal fact that I was the best in his lap too.
And holding hands was no bad thing. You cultured people can go give yourself a hand.
But, if he didn't want the hand holding…
"Alright then-"
"No! Ahem. T-this is fine."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMy hands were pretty naughty you know? Sometimes they don't care and go caress some fun places without my permission, hehe.
"So… when are we eating these things?"
Nes asked, her mouth already overflowing and dripping as she looked at the round table in the middle of the room filled with our delicious food items.
He made most of it, so there was no need to even think about how delicious they would be.
"As soon as we get the bottles, I guess? Have you tried drinking before, Nes?"
We were adults here so legally, we can drink alcohol. Not that anyone gave a flying fk about those regional legal laws.
And Nes was even two years older than us, so she certainly could drink the only fine thing this country had to offer.
"Hunnn? Drink? You mean… alcohol? Wasn't it only for you two?"
"You can have a drink with me if you want. And then we-"
"Ahem. I will get up," he whispered directly in my ear, making me pause midway.
She could drink and it wasn't like she was a child but this damn brother of mine still had a problem with us girls drinking some light beverages.
'He doesn't drink anyway, not until the situation is unavoidable or I use a wish. So what problem did he have if she drinks with Eva and me?'
"It's up to you though. We did prepare this special orange milkshake. Lucy loves it so you can have that too."
I wanted her to drink with us but if I pushed the topic, this bastard would actually push me away and I would fall off this comfortable bed and his even more warm, gentle, not hard but still the best lap.
"Yes… I like oranges. I will take that… but can I have a bite, please? I know it's rude but-"
"Nah. Go ahead. Food is made for eating."
"Thanks~!"
And after merrily shouting that, she just picked up a spoon and dug into the special box with finely cooked rice, some egg rolls, and crab stars all arranged into a panda shape with a hat.
'It was a kind of lunchbox that moms of old times would prepare for their young children going to school, and in her previous life, that was one of the only things she loved.'
[ "She's cute…" ]
[ "And precious." ]
Yeah, she was precious too. But the way her endlessly hungry look just melted away with that one spoon and she was lost in a nostalgic sea of joy was an adorable sight for the two of us.
-Knock. Knock.
"They're here~!"
"I will get it."
Eva walked to the door and retrieved the bucket filled with ice.
Three fine bottles were resting inside it and they were big enough to be the champaign bottles but, in fact, the lavender bottle was a hundred-and-fifty-year-old pure wine, the golden one was a local specialty made with some unique fruits resembling apples, a sweet drink, and the last one was a transparent white bottle with a special alchemical product that had more than ninety-three percent alcohol.
'I love mixing them in a ?, ?, ? ratio accordingly and man~. It tastes the best thing on this planet!'
But, that was it. It was only the best on this planet and since this was my first time drinking in this life, I wanted it to be this specific thing that was created accidentally during our first-ever run together.
'There was one more special one that was created accidentally like this but it was the most special thing for the two of us. And I wanted our first drink together to be that specific one.'
But I can only hope it… since that thing, well, was not something even Raz could create even if I gave him the detailed recipe.
'Right, Raz.'
[ "Call exclusive merchant: Raz." ]
-Oooooooooong~.
<Nyahahahaha! The great Azrail has descended once again~!>
"Oh? This quick? Were you waiting for this, baby?"
After doing that silly but cute introduction, he directly jumped into my arms and started snuggling me.
<Nya, there was nothing much to do today so I was getting bored.>
His white fur seemed to have grown up since the first time we met. Which was defiantly thanks to my great care and healthy food.
"There's nothing to do? How can that be? Have you started 'hoarding'?"
It was a common trade term that meant hoarding items and scaling the market prices. And if he had nothing to do, it only meant either he had finished everything he had for today, or he was not selling anymore.
<Yes, nya. I had to stop the sales since you announced that those who wanted the rights to use your synthesis method would have to contact me.
Since, nya, I'm dealing with some of my old customers anyway, it's a good time to use them and earn more profits.
And since it will be possible thanks to you, I will give you point one percent of the profits, nya.>
His 0.1 percent of the profits meant hundreds of thousands of Oz, maybe more if the item demands suddenly spike up because of some uncertain incident. And, he was saying he will just give it to us for free!
"Thanks, cutie~. We will prepare something special for you next time~!"
I rubbed my face against his cheeks and though he didn't use to like it before, he loved it when I thanked him like this.
<Nya, thank you too~.>
He was my little baby, just like my big baby that was having fun with all the things and sensations from me but wasn't saying anything. And then there was our friend Nes that had stopped eating and was suddenly looking at Raz and me with a curious expression.
"Is… is that your dimensional merchant, El?"
The spoon was in her hand, beads of rice stuck on her face, and she was looking at Raz as if she found him adorable.
'And she wants to pat him. Hehe.'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was cute, and she also had an adorable dimensional merchant, one that I had created myself, and one that was the most cheerful being probably among all of the dimensional merchants in the Worldline.
"Yes~. He's our family member Azrail. But we call him Raz~. Isn't he just adorable~."
"Yes!"
She shook her head excitedly with a smile and took just a step back when she remembered she hadn't finished that rice box yet, so she turned back, picked it up, and then walked to our side.
"Hello, Mister Raz. It's nice to meet you."
She was a little shy and she was also holding a spoon and the box in her hands, so even though she wanted to pet him, she couldn't do it.
And instead of simply putting those things down, as if to have gotten a brilliant idea out of the blue, she suddenly looked up and shouted not that loudly.
[ "Call exclusive merchant ID: Silver." ]
The name she called itself contained a hint of happiness. And, the way she just said those words as if it was nothing, showed her special powers.
'She said those things in Mana speech and to use Mana speech, even I have to perfectly concentrate and harmonize my words even though my control of Mana has become better than some high elf's.'
She was a half-fairy, a unique creature that had almost all the abilities of her fairy side, which meant manipulating Mana was as normal to her as breathing.
She was a mortal, part human even, but, in this aspect, she was as natural as the true fairies possessing the innate ability to travel through realms.
Raz knew it and was looking at her curiously and examining her status window right now.
'She is amazing, blessed by Mana, blessed by nature, and though miserable, the fact that she always ended up with Silver as her merchant in any scenario, was a unique phenomenon that even I couldn't explain with endless calculations.'
Probably it was what the central brain called <Fate> and <Destiny>, or maybe just pure coincidence but, these two were undoubtedly made for each other.
So…
-Ooooooooong.
When that cute little pink snake materialized before us, and smiled cheerfully at us with his joyous silver eyes, I couldn't help this motherly heart of mine.
Raz was my baby, the most miserable and lonely of my fifteen dimensional merchants, and also Lucy and my favorite.
He needed the most help out of all of them and also the most time to truly become our family, so, we called him first, and now he was with us.
Silver, on the other hand, was not someone we could have been able to have exclusively. We didn't need her anyway.
She belonged somewhere else, and right now, she was in the right place.
She was cute, probably the opposite of Raz in most aspects, but if I had to describe this gentle, cute, pink little snake in one word…
'She's free.'
In this story, this game, she was the symbol of freedom. The most joyous and cheerful being, and someone that was happy in true meaning.
<Ptsssss, hello everyone~!>
'And her hissing is the cutest.'
