Chereads / Reborn as a Fox Beastman with Modern Knowledge / Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: The Big Surprise

Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: The Big Surprise

Sally and I were inside the best inn in Calli village. The father of the sibling rented the largest and well-furnished room of the inn. Sally and I were sitting on a couch in a living room. Well, this is not the softest couch that I have ever sat on, even though it was the best quality couch the inn have bought. But, Sally liked it very much. Ah, who cares. While I was waiting for the siblings to explain to their father in the bedroom. We were left here to wait in the living room. Then they came out. The siblings were now wearing fresh new clothes.

"Felix, before I introduced my self. Can I see your weapon that you use to protect my children?"

"Sure"

I removed the magazine of my M9 and rack the slide to make sure there isn't any bullet in the chamber. While I was doing that, the father of the sibling was curiously looking, even the sibling where curious. I then gave it to him knowing its safe.

"It's a bit heavy."

"All the parts are made out of metal"

"Interesting."

He then fiddled around the gun, even copying me when I racked the slide and that made it lock up. He tried to push it back, but due to the slide stop catching, he couldn't push it. I then showed him how I released the slide by pushing the slide stop, causing the slide to be released which surprised him a bit. He even looked at the barrel of the gun, which is very dangerous even if the gun is not loaded.

"Will you be willing to sell this weapon to me for 5 gold coins?"

5 gold coins... that's a lot? The currency of this world is simple, we have copper, silver, and gold coins

100 copper = 1 silver

50 silver = 1 gold

When Sally and the siblings heard the price, they were shocked. 1 gold coins were enough to feed 3 people for 1 year or vice versa.

"Sorry, but I won't sell it to you."

"How about a platinum coin that cost about 20 gold coins"

A platinum coin. I only heard rumors about that coin, which only the most wealthy could earn 1 in 4 years. And this person is not just willing to buy my gun for 5 gold coins he even willingly increased its price to a platinum coin. The only person that has that kind of wealth was a wealthy merchant, a noble, and especially the king that has the power of the treasury.

And he fits the latter bill quite perfectly. Why? Someone couldn't just have that kind of wealth on their pockets with 10 knights with him. Merchants would mostly have 3-5 regular guards watching over the goods, and even if it's a rich merchant with a platinum coin, It will just remain in his bank. And not did he just have a carriage not normally used by regular people. He even nonchalantly offered 5 gold coins and even increased the price to 1 platinum coin, tripling the cost. But, what surprised all of them was.

"I will not accept your offer, my King."

Sally's and the sibling's jaws drop when I refused the offer. While the King (possibly the King) was laughing.

"Hahaha! That's the first time someone refused my platinum coin and even deduced my identity!"

"Felix! Why did you refuse that offer! You could have been super-rich when you accepted that! And also, sorry for my rudeness your Highness."

"Not at all."

Sally was dumbfounded by my decision while asking forgiveness to the King. But I told her this.

"I don't need to be rich. I just want to enjoy this world with my Mom and Best friend."

Smiling while telling her the reason, Sally was blushing bright red. While that was happening, Lillian whispered something to her father.

"Oh... are you sure about that?"

While I was talking to Sally, Lillian suddenly stood up and went in front of me, she was also blushing bright red. Why do girls blush so frequently?

"Fe-Felix!"

"Yes?"

"Wi-wi-will yo-y-yo.

WILL YOU MARRY ME!"

And now it was my turn to be surprised.

"Heh?... HUUUHHHHH!??!?!?!?!?!"

"WHAT THE HELL!?!?!!"

That was the first time I heard Sally say that, and she didn't hesitate to jump on me!

"FELIX IS MINE!!!!!!"

Another bomb was set off.

"WAT DO YAH MEAN I'M YOURS!!!!"

While the two girls were arguing over me, another visitor came and it was an elf. Teacher Hastos Forestwood. Why is he here anyway?

"Nice for you to arrived Hastos."

"The pleasures all mine King Philip. Anyways, congratulation Felix!"

"Don't encourage them Teacher Hastos! You're going to make it worse!"

When Sally heard that, she was now very jealous.

"FELIX! MARRY ME TOO!"

I then got strangled by Sally's seriously strong hug.

"Ca-can't b-bre-ath."

I blacked out.

Did I just pass out? Something feels warm on my head? Is this a lap pillow? Then I heard them talking. Well, I'm going to eavesdrop a little. Sally's voice was above me and also was Lillian's.

"Why do you want to marry him? You just met."

"Well... when I saw him protecting me, it felt like my heart was flying. I then thought his prince charming like in the books. There was also a possibility that I will be married to a family so that they can gain power. No, I want to be married to someone that will love and cherish me."

She then brushed the back of my ears. That feels good. I tried to brush my head against her hand but endured it so she wouldn't notice I was awake.

"It's the same for me too."

"How come?"

"It was the first day of school when Felix and I met some bullies. They were harassing me and Felix when Felix told me to ignore them. I did as he told me when the bullies got angry and tried to punch Felix. He managed to catch the bully's fist and told them something threatening to make them *giggle* wet themselves."

"Seriously?"

"Yeah, then they run away crying. That was the first time I felt this feeling. This feeling of never wanting to leave him, to be closer, and before I knew it. I LOVE YOU FELIX."

Well, the feelings mutual actually. Before I also knew it, I found you to be cuter and cuter every time I was with you, making my heart beat so fast it feels like it would burst out. So I'm going to say this to you too.

"I LOVE YOU TOO SALLY."

When I opened my eyes, I saw a red and teary-eyed Sally.

"Yo-You loved me too?"

"Yes, and I'm going to say it again. I LOVE YOU."

She was now crying, causing me to panic. I tried to rise up but then.

"He-hey don'~mhh!?"

And something was touching my lips, it's so soft and warm, it's making me dizzy. Sally was now kissing me so passionately romantic that my fluffy fox tail was now banging the bed like a dog. After kissing me for a good half a minute, Sally let go.

"That was amazing Sally"

"It also felt good Felix"

When I looked at my right side Lillian was just looking at us. Oh crap, I forgot that Lillian was here with me.

"Oh, I don't want to lose to you, Sally."

Lillian gave me a peck on the lips and they both smiled at me.

""Take good care of us, Felix""

Oh no, this is going to be hard.
