"... You..." The girl said.
"Me..?" I just followed her question and tried to remain calm.
"Did... Did... di you..." The girl stuttered as she tried to say something.
"Ahhh... You must have mean why I came here right... yes I did come for a certain mission... haha..." I whistled and tried to ignore the fact that I was caught red handed.
"N... no not that..!" The girl exclaimed and blushed heavily as she acted like a cornered bunny.
"N... not that..? then what is it?" I tried to remember and scratch my head while I was laying in the same bed as the girl.
This guy... I can't believe his still lying in front of me..! but he did just said he came here for a mission, maybe it was the one I put up in the second layer mission board..?'
"N... nothing..! you did just say that you came here for a mission right..? what was that mission then?" The girl sighted and blushed but now her face is not as red as when he started talking to Xiao Chen.
'Nice going me! Anime 101 harem king! if you get caught then play dead and when you wake up deny everything by saying some lie with back with truth facts!'
"Y-yeah... I did come here but I didn't expect to get knocked unconscious somehow... how weird" I looked my surroundings trying to avoid any eye contact from this gorgeous lady, but couldn't help but be embarrassed I was in a bed with a girl so I scratched my head while bitterly smiling.
"Hmph! T-then give me that mission slip!" The girl was a little annoyed but didn't sue the little accident earlier.
"Ah! here... here it is... by, by any chance are you this lady in the drawing of the mission slip..? (haha)" I bitterly laugh as I can see that it was my client that U just peeked at and she seems to be annoyed now.
'This is so unlucky... I shouldn't have trusted you Kazuma! Now my reputation is at stake! If this girl tells her friends then my cool boy reputation will be turned into a peeping tom one!'
"Hmm... Ahem, sorry for this but... are you really up to this task..?" The girl harrumphed as she took a look at me.
"What do you mean..? that I'm not strong enough?" I look at the girl awkwardly and smirked.
'Heh! if that's how you'll play then how about I'll tease you a bit let's see how you'll deal with that'
"I... it's not like that... i-it's just that I find it hard to easily trust someone who just came in here and took a peek at me and was knocked unconscious at me..." The beautiful girl looked a bit distressed and acted as if she doesn't want to team up with me.
"I see... then it's better for us to separate our own ways then... I didn't expect that you would actually take advantage of me in this kind of situation... you lured me here just to make fun of me so that I'll get expelled by the sect right..?" I made a sad expression and used my beautiful face to make her guard loosen then I'll strike with the manga romcom tactic!
'Hehe! cultivator tends to focus on their cultivation and when it comes to love life and teasing they are simply weak! I'm pretty sure she's panicking right now'
"S-separate..? W-why? I thought you were here for the mission..?" The dumb clueless fairy like girl panicked when I told her some nonsense and my plan worked.
"*sigh*, I thought... you don't want me anymore... to be your partner that is..." I made my self looked a little miserable and looked down to make sure she doesn't know that I'm just teasing her.
'Partner in finding pets I mean... hahaha she would surely panic after hearing this'
"P-partner..? I-I didn't say anything about you being my partner... although... I was a little curious about a girl and a boy-"
*Slap*
The fair slapped her own face and blushed madly like a teen in her first loved and knew that she just said that she was interested in me.
"Y-you... you like me? B-but I thought you were throwing me away because I'm not strong enough..?" I took a glance at her and used my charming face that almost resembled that of a woman.
'How is this even working... hahaha, I wanna laugh so hard because all that time watching all those anime, manga and novels even playing some dating sims, would actually work with an outstanding woman who is in the middle layer of the sect..!'
"N-no... I-I... I didn't mean to be rude to you or anything... I just thought, what if our journey to the beast glades forest would be dangerous and you'll be in danger... I can't possibly protect you at that time..." The fair looked at me earnestly while moving her body towards me which made her blush and I smelled her sweet scent.
'T-this guy... he is so close to me... no, in the first place I was the one who moved closer to him. Strangely enough I don't feel threatened by him nor disgusted, it must be because he is actually pretty handsome than other of my sect juniors and seniors... it's almost as if he is much more beautiful than me... am... am I actually that type of woman who is into girls..? n-no..! he must have a natural charm body that is quite rare for male as it only is mostly seen on girls, grrr..! I hate to admit it but I do find him quite charming even though he is a peeping tom!'
After a while the looked at Xiao Chen intensely and pouted her lips while blushing before she got her attitude back and hmphing while facing the other direction and did not talk to me again
But in the end she accepted me and we were to depart after tonight when she finishes asking for permission to leave the sect.
"Phew... the security in the middle layer of the sect is quite hard though..."
