"You... don't stay here?" Vanessa questioned incredulously.
"Yes, is there a problem?" Felix retorted, leaving Vanessa stunned.
Vanessa, observing Felix and the white-haired girl burdened with an array of packages, surmised they were putting on a brave front.
Just as she was about to interrogate them, Garvit inexplicably stepped forward to assist Felix, taking all the packages from him.
"Lord, next time you go shopping, please let me carry your things," Garvit respectfully offered.
"It's not that serious, it looks like a lot, but it's not heavy," Felix brushed off Garvit's courteousness, leaving Vanessa flabbergasted.
— (L-Lord... Lord?)
— (Why would Garvit...?!)
Vanessa was dumbfounded. The series of events unfolding before her eyes were bizarrely dreamlike.
Why weren't Felix and his companion staying at the Red Leaf Inn?
Why was Garvit addressing Felix as 'Lord'?
