Chapter 43 - Vivian is back?

When Lisa wakes up, it seems that Lune is already getting herself washed and dressed in her usual traveling garb instead of the indoor night attire, and when she wants to greet her a good morning, she spots dark circles around her eyes and asks instead, "what happened to your eyes?"

"Didn't sleep well. Some neighbors were too loud last night," she sighs from how tired she is from the lack of sleep, and keeps reminding herself to reprimand the couple once they meet up later, "is Snow up yet?"

The redhead turns to see Snow finally stirring awake from her sleep from their talking, and while she is rubbing her eyes, Lisa quickly walks to the bathroom after telling Lune to apply some powder to cover her circles. Realizing that she is right, Lune quickly gets her compact and starts applying as much as possible, and Snow takes this chance to jump to her back and whines.

"Geez Snow, you're heavy."

She whines again and Lune gives up and puts down her powder. Grabbing Snow's tail, the little dragon is now hanging upside down and the blonde warns, "no food if you don't behave."

Once Lisa is ready, they take their belongings and exit the room and climb down, where the couple seems to be waiting for them at the lobby while still looking like they are in a honeymoon phase, staring at each other lovingly and Lune groans, "I hope the two of you are happy for disrupting my sleep last night."

Rin seems to be blushing hard right after she said that and Ford shakes his head, "no way! I doubt we were that loud! Do you have a good hearing or something?"

"Let's just say I'm more sensitive compared to the usual mortal senses," Snow starts whining again and she snaps, "what did I say about misbehavior?"

Now both Rin and Ford understand why Chilve is so infatuated with this girl. She can actually calm a dragon down. Definitely fitting to be the mate of an alpha. They finally exit the inn and after double checking the map, they start traveling towards the dungeon they planned to explore, and luckily the lovebirds are no longer being lovey dovey in front of the pissed Lune. It takes them almost half a day to reach it, with a shortcut Ford introduced where they save a day's time of traveling, and now the entrance is filled with adventurers looking for party members.

"Not good. With so many adventurers today, we might not be able to explore peacefully and might even have to share loot with other parties," Rin looks around with a little bit of stress from so many mortals in one place, and Ford asks the blonde, "does this mean we shouldn't do this today?"

"As much as I want to postpone this particular dungeon to another day, we don't really have much energy to go for other dungeons now, do we?"

Lisa agrees with what Lune says and she rubs her chin, "yeah, we need to stock up soon since we are running out of money and supplies. I don't want to hunt for food while on the road for days."

"It's fine, I'm sure we can help secure the loot from the other adventurers if you both want."

A familiar voice calls out Lune's name among the crowd and when she turns to the owner of the voice, she smiles brightly when she recognizes the face, "Vivian! It's been a while."

"How long ago was our last meeting? Oh right, about two weeks. How time flies!" The little witch spots the couple and asks, "new friends? I thought you would never get more members for months!"

"Well, things happen and here they are."

"My name's Ford Eve, and this is my ma- I mean wife, Rin," the girl waves and Vivian's eyes light up, "did you say wife? Oh my God, this is making me envious! How I wish I could marry Sol already."

Lune is staring at her and she clears her throat in embarrassment, "you know that's my dream! Aren't you happy that you might get a good sister in law like me?"

"If he is willing to take you as his wife, I have no objection."

"Oh right, how silly am I for having my dream take me away from reality! My name's Vivian, potential sister in law of Lune. How long have you both known her? You know, she might be a little straightforward at times but she is a good girl."

"Why are you talking about me like I'm a child? Wait, why are you even here? Without my brother in sight even."

With a proud looking expression, Vivian hums in pleasure and starts boasting, "I'm going to prove to your brother that I can live without him for a few days! So here I am doing a quick run to a dungeon."

"Don't you think he might have ran away while you're here fighting monsters?"

It seems that Vivian just realized that from how devastating her face feature turns, and Lisa who has been checking out the other parties comes back and beams, "lucky us! I heard rumors going around that some party exited the dungeon with heavy injuries, and now most of the other parties are not willing to enter until they have better equipment or a healer in the party. We should take this chance to get the loot for ourselves without sharing."

Rin looks a little worried while Ford nods at Lisa's suggestion and beckons them to follow, "I will lead the way with my senses then. All of you walk behind me."

Ford is in front with Rin right behind him, followed by Lune, Lisa, and Snow, and last but not least Vivian at the far back, still looking dejected at the possible 'being dumped by her future husband' scenario.
