Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world - Chapter 130

“We’ve arrived,” Yuldra said.

In front of us was a big inn. And I can say, the building can fit a hundred people easily.

The building was beautiful and luxurious it was made entirely of white stone walls. It had windows and doors made of brown wood. Lastly, the roof is red.

The inn became even more impressive because it had a delightful little garden on the left side of it.

“What a good place is it, right?”

“Yes, it’s wonderful,” I gave my impression to Yuldra and I got a smile from her.

Fourteen Flugels lined up on the right and left sides of the road leading to the entrance of the inn. One of them, who is  standing at the entrance said, “Welcome, Princess Yuldra and esteemed guests.”

The other Flugels bowed with her words as a signal.

“Thank you for the warm welcome, Philia.”

“This has been our happiness,” replied Flugel named Philia with a smile. “Let me show you your room.”

“Ah, wait a minute Philia, there are some things I want to tell our guests,” Yuldra said stopping Philia’s steps and getting the woman back to her place.

“And sorry, I won’t stay here, there’s a lot of things I have to do.”

“I understand.”

After getting another smile from Philia, Yuldra moved her head to look at us.

“Please listen,” she began. “Dear mother said that I just need to provide you guys with a place to spend the nights and that includes food. So my job is done but, before I leave, I’ll give you guys some explanation.”

“You came here because of my dear mother’s invitation.”

“For how long and what you should do here. Dear mother said and I quote, ‘Rest and enjoy your time at my house, Eclaite. We’ll talk again later, it’s meant for Miss Eclaite but it also applies to you.”

“So, with that, I can conclude that you won’t get any restrictions while you stay here. But of course, any criminal acts will get a firm punishment.”

“Lastly, you must not leave this Flying Castel until dear mother and miss Eclaite’s matter are over. And fuu~ I talk quite a lot. I’m quite tired so I’ll say, see you later, Miss Eclaite and guests.”

“See you later, Yuldra. And thank you.”

“You are welcome,” she replied with a smile. Then, she looks at Philia. “I leave the rest to you, Philia.”

“Leave it to me, Princess Yuldra.”

Yuldra nodded. A moment later, she floated. After she made light waves of her hand at us, she flew away.

“Please, esteemed guests, follow me. I’ll show you your room.”

So we went into the inn. And yes, Philia doesn’t do this job alone. The other Flugels helped her to guide us to each of our rooms.

And I will say, the room in this inn is nice, clean, minimalist, and most importantly, it has an incredibly soft, white mattress.

“It’s true happiness,” I commented as I enjoyed the softness of the mattress with my body. “Ruciel come-”

Knock! Knock!

A door knock interrupted my words. I wanted to have a little fun with Ruciel but I didn’t seem to have time.

Ruciel who breathed a sigh of relief opened the door immediately. There, I saw Lostria, Ronove, and Teria.

“We need to talk,” Ronove invited me.

So, I’m bringing them into my room. Two people occupied chairs, while the other four sat in the two vacant beds.

I who was cross-legged in bed hugging a pillow asked, “What do you want to talk about?”

“First, what kind of relationship do you have with… Dishonesty and Honesty? They are the Flugels in legend, right?” Ronove asked.

I who got the question was silent to think for a while. My ears twitched because, “honestly, I can’t be sure if Honesty and Dishonesty I know are the Flugels that you guys mean.”

“Why would you say that!?” Lostria said a little annoyed.

“Because they never told me they were legends. Besides, I just met them today after a long time. So, I don’t know much about them.”

“You just met them!?”

“That’s right,” I answered Lostria.

“How long is that? Ronove investigated.

“They said we didn’t see each other for a thousand years.”

“How old are you again?” Ruciel asked.

“Nineteen,” if not including my age in the previous world.

…

They fell silent and narrowed their eyes. And for some reason, even though I had already given them the answers they wanted, they looked even angrier than before.

“Haa… All right if you want to keep a secret. We can forget about your relationship with them,” Teria said. Then, she put on a serious expression. “However, I want to make sure, we’re going to get out of this place alive right?”

I tilted my head a little because of that question. My fox ears make one strong twitch. “Why do you ask a question like that?”

“Because we are inside the Flying Castel, Uncertainty and we were surrounded by Flugels!” She replied in a slightly high voice.

“Okay, that answer still makes me not understand why we’re inside, as you said, a life-and-death situation.”

“You need to know, Flugels is notoriously merciless.” Ruciel began to give me an explanation. “In war, they never leave their opponents alive. They are also so good at deceiving and manipulating people. They were much more dangerous than Shadow Elf. Therefore, we should be wary of them, especially when they catch us!”

Is that true? The Flugels in this place were as vicious and terrifying as she said.

I shook my head. “We’ll be fine. Dishonesty and Honesty are not evil and for the Flugels here, I don’t think they are evil either.”

“You’re really sure of that.”

“Yes, I mean, along the way, do you see the Flugels look down on us? Showing hostility? Giving a rejection? Making fun of us? No, right? Once again, we’ll be fine.”

“If the young lady says that, then we will believe it,” Ronove said. “We’ll be fine even if we’ll be watched. It’s not a bad idea if we stay in this inn until the young lady finishes her business.”

“If it can raise our percentage of survival, I’ll make sure my men do that.” Teria made a strong nod.

“If you are willing, can you tell us the- ”

“We better not ask about that either.” Ronove cut off Lostria’s words.

Seeing that interaction, I said, “You guys are too worry ward, you know that?”

“It’s about our lives young lady, of course, we’re worried!” Ronove scolded me.

“All right, all right, but… Where’s Myu? since I saw all of you, I never saw her.”

Getting that question they, except Ronove, exchanged gazes. A moment later, Lostria asked, “Isn’t she with you?”

That question confused me. “Okay that’s weird, why do you think Myu is with me?”

“She’s chasing after you while you’re exploring the Sky Islands, you know that? She said she couldn’t leave you alone.”

My face turned pale. “We never met.”

“Then she’s still hanging around the Sky Islands,” Ruciel said.

“We need to save her!”

Ruciel shook her head. “We can’t leave this place, remember? She will be fine, you can forget about her.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, forget about that girl. I’m sure she could have survived a week or two in that place alone.”

“…I-”

“Forget that girl!” Ruciel didn’t let me finish my words with her firm command.

It was rare for her to insist on something just like this. And seeing her irritated expression, mentioning Myu again might be a bad decision.

“All right, I will forget Myu,” I told her. And instead, I got a little snort of satisfaction from her.

Then, I back to look at everyone. “Are you sure you want to lock yourself in this inn?”

“We have no other choice,” Ronove said.

“Didn’t I already say we’d be fine? Besides, do you guys really want to miss this opportunity?”

“What do you mean?”

“We are inside of the Uncertainty, in the homeland of the Flugels, and I am sure, there are many foreign things here. Don’t you want something from here?”

“We…” Ronove’s voice was trailed off.

“I don’t know about you guys, but, after taking a short rest, I want to look around this city. Maybe I’ll get rare Spells, weapons, armor, Magic Tools, Potions, or so on.”

They were stunned for some time before they finally moved on to leave this room. They seem to be in a hurry to do something.

And before they completely vanished, I said, “If you’re still worried, make a group of about four or more people when walking around the city.”

They gave me their confirmation and they vanished.

“What are you going to do next?”

“As I said before, I want to explore this city. But, before that, I want to rest first.” Finished with that words, I dropped myself into the bed.

Then, I patted the empty part of the mattress. I gave a sign for Ruciel to sleep with me.

“No!” She told me. “I don’t want to sleep with you! I don’t want to be groped by you!”

“Eh~~ don’t you like it. The last time I did it, you made a moan after moan of satisfaction.”

“I never did it!” Screaming, she gets out of this room.

“It’s a pity,” I said.. A moment later, I closed my eyes.
