When the fascinating woman went down to the first floor, she came next to me and talked to the receptionist.
"Could I ask you to take care of the room? My customer is also sleeping in the room, so including that person."
"Okay. Thank you for your continued patronage."
"Just put the charge on the person who's still snoring on the second floor as usual. Please contact me if anything happens."
"Understood."
After saying "See you" to the receptionist who bowed respectfully, she left the place. But just before that, when she turned her eyes towards me, she gave me a soft smile.
... As I was dazedly following her receding figure with my eyes, the receptionist said"Sir?" to call my attention and I came to my senses. It seems that my consciousness flew away.
"He, hey, can I ask you something!"
"--- Wh, what is it?"
The receptionist nodded while shrinking back a little at me who unconsciously leaned forward and raised a voice.
"That person who left just now! Is that person also working here!?"
"No. She just regularly use this inn when she entertain her customer, so she is different from the prostitutes who belong to our shop."
In other words, she's an independent prostitute who don't belong to anywhere?
But, I don't care about that right now.
"Ah, sir. If you want to ask that person to be your company, then I suggest you shouldn't do tha---"
Without listening to the receptionist's words until the end, I was already rushing out of the brothel.
'O-oi, partner. What wrong!?'
Ignoring Gram's shout, I ran desperately.
It's not that long since she left. If I hurry, I should be able to catch up with her.
And finally --- I caught the receding back of the one that I was looking for within my sight.
"Hey, the beautiful onee-san over there!"
Maybe because my voice reached her, she stopped walking. After turning around, she said "Ara' while putting her hand on her mouth.
When I ran up to her side, I placed both my hands on my knees and breathed unsteadily. The distance wasn't that long, but I became out of breath because I was running with all my strength.
"Well, aren't you... the boy at the reception desk of the inn?"
"Yes... you're right."
"From the looks of it, it seems like you have some business with me, but... what could it be?"
I put my hand on my chest to adjust my breathing and after regaining some composure, I raised my face.
When I look at her closely, she's really an outrageous beauty. If that "young lady" is a lovely girl, this person is a bewitching woman. A woman who exists to captivate a man.
I made up my mind.
After correcting my posture, I spoke clearly.
"Onee-san, please be my first experience!"
At first, she froze up with her mouth open.
'When your tension was shaken off, you seems to have become terrifyingly brave instead.'
Gram's mutter passed from my left ear to the right.
After a short time, the onee-san suddenly came to her senses and showed a smile.
"... Did you mean that you want to rent me as a prostitute?"
"Yes! If I want to become a man anyway, it's better if it's with a fine beauty like you!!"
"Fufufu, thanks for the compliment."
The onee-san laughed pleasantly.
"Lately, I've been only dealing with strangely pretentious men, so a straightforward boy like you is refreshing and nice. I wonder if it's also fun to sleep with someone like that?"
Oh, did I made a good impression?
Although she's a prostitute, I don't think I've gone too far with someone on the first meeting, but I think I can probably do it?
"But I also take pride in my work as a prostitute. No matter who he is, I would never sleep with him for free."
"... Well, of course... that's natural."
When I was having a faint hope, the onee-san firmly stated with a slightly serious look. My head, that was muddled by excitement, has been cooled down a little and I nodded timidly.
"Just to be clear... I'm expensive, you know?"
"Ho, how much are you specifically?"
--- The amount, that the onee-san told me, was far above my budget. It's not enough even if I pour everything in my life into it. I looked at her face while thinking 'Isn't this overcharging?', but her response was a serious look. It doesn't seem a joke.
"Tha, that's absurd..."(said in kansai dialect)
'Hey, you're so shocked that you spoke a strange dialect.'
As I fell down on the spot from such a high price, Gram calmly chimed in.
'But, this amount is reasonable. In other words, this big breasted nee-chan is a finest woman which placed at the top class among the prostitutes. Partner, it seems that you didn't got wrong in your judgement. Unfortunately, though, she seems to be beyond your reach!'
Maybe because Gram was amused at how I fell down, his voice contained laughter. I wonder what he would do if I toss him into a smelting furnace.
"I'm sorry. As I said earlier, if I would sleep with you for free, it would be inexcusable for my customers who have spent money on me so far."
She said with a bitter smile and turned her back on me.
"I don't hate a honest boy like you."
Her footsteps are going away. I couldn't stop her with my head hanging down. Then, the ring that was hanging on a string, spills out of my chest the moment I lower my head.
When I saw the ring that was hanging and swaying on the string, I suddenly thought.
--- That's right, this time it's not out of my reach.
"Let's try to do it."
When I stood up resolutely, I shouted at the onee-san who was about to leave.
"Onee-san! There's something I want to ask you."
"What is it?"
When she turned around at me, I said,
"If I prepared the money sufficiently, I can probably pay you!"
"... Yes. If you would be able to gather the total money I suggested earlier, I would be delighted to be rented by you."
"Alright! Don't forget your words!!"
On the "previous situation", the difference in status was standing in the way. A problem that I, a mere villager, can't do anything about.
However, the problem this time is money. Certainly, I don't have the money to rent her now. But if I don't have money, I just need to earn it.
Therefore, let's try to earn money!
"Fufufu, you're not using a strangely polite tone, but it's much better now, boy."
"I will definitely rent you. So please keep that in mind."
"Yes, I'm looking forward to it."
Then, there was something I had forgotten to ask.
"Please tell me your name. Because even if we meet again, it would be hard to find you if I don't know your name."
"If so, isn't it a courtesy to give your name first?"
"Oops, how rude of me."
Today, the fluctuations of my emotion is intense as it turns hot or cold.
After clearing my throat once, I gave her my name.
"I'm Yukina. Nice to meet you."
"Well, Yukina-kun, right?"
The onee-san corrected her posture a bit and looked straight at me.
"My name is Kyunei. I will be looking forward to the day when I will be rented by you."
--- Thus, I started to act in order to rent the finest prostitute called Kyunei.
