Chapter 36 - I'm Back!

"Well not exactly," I say.

Miya looked at Yei with slight confusion on her face, as she believes that it's time for them to part away already. As Yei had already fulfilled the task that she needed to do in the field of wildflower. So there's no reason for Yei to stay here anymore.

"Aren't you forgetting something? I didn't know how to navigate around the area so until I leave the area, we both will be still stuck together until then."

After You had said that, Miya's face lightened up as if something good had happened to her all of the sudden. Still, Yei couldn't figure it out but it doesn't matter much...

With that, the both of them spend their time together again trying to leave the area.

...

It does take time but it feels like the time passed a lot quicker this time around compared to before. But just like before, there's no encounter with a monster whatsoever. For Yei, it's lucky as it would be a problem to fight in her current state.

The time for parting away had to happen sooner or later.

As I was about to leave...

"Does something matter?" Yei asked as Miya was grabbing the outer clothes and she didn't let them go.

Miya was somehow hesitant in what she wanted to say but in the end, she managed to say it out loud towards Yei. "Will we meet each other again in the future?"

"I am not sure whether we will meet again or not. But if you ever pay a visit to Gria Town, I am sure that we both will see each other again."

Don't know why this situation happens but I guess Miya really thought me off as her closest friend. Even though we just met just a few days ago. Well, a lot has happened between us so maybe that's why Miya trusts me and considers me as a friend.

For me, I don't think that I wouldn't call her a close friend yet... just a friend. As we don't know much about each other at all.

"If that is the case if I ever go there. I am sure to search for you."

"Sure just do that, I really need to get going now as it's kinda heavy to carry this... I wish you luck on your task Miya."

"Sorry to hold you this long." Miya paused for a while and then said, "Goodbye then Yei, hope that we will meet again soon."

I simply smile towards Miya as I start to walk away from there and head back towards the town. When I was certain that I had walked quite far from the field of wildflowers. I then store the Flower of Eve in my system storage.

"This would surely make my job easier..."

With that, I ran back towards Gria Town as I really wanted to take a bath and eat some food. I am literally dirty and hungry at the moment... As Tim still had a few days left, I doubt that Tim would need that flower in a hurry so I guess I should be heading to the bathhouse first and then the inn.

...

'Finally, I'm back!'

The first thing I did was head back towards the bathhouse but I realized something. It's probably not best to do that as my clothes need to be washed as well... so probably better for me to buy a new one and clean this one in the meantime.

I suppose I should head to the inn then, but I really wanted to eat some food now.

But when I was just on my way to the inn, I stumbled upon someone that I really wanted to avoid. That was Elina of course... because she would ask a lot of questions.

'Wait a minute! She didn't notice me yet.'

It seems like Elina was looking at something for now... well if that is the case. Better sneak out from here as I don't really wanna talk to her because I know that her girlfriend would get jealous of us if she ever saw I am alone with Elina. So I should avoid that thing from ever happening.

But it appears that I couldn't sneak out from here after all. Because the moment I turn... Elina saw me and called out my name pretty loud. So there's no way I could just pretend to not hear that, even if I do that I am sure Elina would go after me.

Without having any other option, I then turn back towards Elina and greet her normally.

"Hey there Elina-"

Out of nowhere, she immediately hugs me which makes me very shocked by her action. I wanted to shove her off me this instant but her grip was too strong, making it hard for me to even move my arm.

"Elina... Could you please stop hugging me, what would happen if Ildran saw you do this?"

"Who cares about that... I really miss you Yei, I am worried that you're hurt as I heard that there's some strong monster appearing and the order of Azure Templar had sent someone there to kill it." Elina then paused, "If the order involves, it always the situation has gotten serious and I worry that you might be killed by the monster when you're there."

"Well I am fine, so could you-"

"No! You do know how worried I am... every day I pray for your safety."

The way that Elina said things makes me feel like I am doing a very dangerous quest that takes a month to finish. But I was just gone for almost two days and a half so there basically no need to worry that much. If I hadn't returned for like a week or two, maybe she should have started praying at that time.

"I am fine Elina, you're the one making it worse right now. Your hug makes me unable to breathe properly so if you could-"

"I am sorry..." Elina quickly released me.
