Looking down at the 35,000 Valis in his hand, Estelle whispered softly, "Let's find a tavern and settle down before thinking about these issues."
Looking at buildings on both sides, the sky was completely dark at this time, but fortunately, the street he was on was still brightly lit.
"Hello, is there a tavern nearby?"
"Tavern?"
"Go straight along this street, turn right after five intersections, and there is a hotel called 'Hostess of Fertility'."
"Uh, um... there are no other taverns nearby?"
"You should be a foreigner; don't listen to this strange name, but it is definitely one of the best places in Orario; even the Loki familia frequently visits it!"
"Oh! You may not know the Loki familia, but that is one of the top familia in Orario!"
"Thank you; sorry for the trouble."
"Young man, trust me, you will never be disappointed there!"
"Excuse me, is there any other tavern nearby besides 'Hostess of Fertility?"
"Except for the hostess, there should be none; other taverns are not competitive, and they will close down within a few months."
"Excuse me..."
Minutes passed.
Estelle, who was leaning against a corner of a street, massaged his forehead with a slight headache.
After asking all the way, I couldn't find even a common hotel near this street except "The Hostess of Fertility".
In fact, Estelle didn't want to go there if it wasn't necessary because he knew there might be an unscrupulous god there, and although it was as affordable and delicious as passersby said, it wasn't worth the risk.
It's not that Estelle feels good about himself. As a time traveler, he is not sure whether his soul is different from people in this world.
If the goddess finds out that he is a visitor from another world, maybe she will force him to be her familia.
He didn't dislike Freya; he didn't even care if she was virgin or not.. slightly? but her way of doing things to Bell is really scary. As long as you can be sure that he will not be like Bell Cranel, then he will be happy, since who dislikes having a goddess obsessed with you?
Glancing at the hotel with a wooden sign engraved with "The Hostess of Fertility" hanging a dozen meters away, Estelle stood up straight and was about to turn around and leave.
He thought that Goddess Freya shouldn't waste her time on this tavern unless there is something interesting here, so he decided to try, but he lost his courage when he saw the tavern.
If he was discovered to have a pure soul, maybe when he was just upgrading in the dungeon when suddenly a bull rushed up to him.
"Let's go to other places to see if there are other taverns."
Just as Estelle turned around and spoke to himself, a clear and sweet girlish voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Suddenly, his body froze in place.
"The hostess of fertility also provides accommodation, sir; would you like to come to our shop?"
What are you afraid of?
Estelle, who recognized the owner of the voice, felt a sudden chill in her heart and a slight chill down her spine.
With his back turned to the person behind him, his mind exploded wildly.
In just a split second, Estelle suppressed all the emotions in his heart and looked directly at the human girl with short gray hair and wearing a green maid outfit behind her.
He said with a slightly displeased tone, "You don't know that being suddenly called up from behind can easily scare others!"
Estelle knows the common abilities of gods and goddesses. Her ability is to distinguish the true emotions of the parties with her discerning eye.
He didn't know if this was the real Syr or Freya, but it was better to be cautious.
The panic that arose in his heart just now fit perfectly with his expression of being suddenly frightened.
After finishing speaking, Estelle turned around with a dissatisfied face and was about to leave.
But Syr behind him seemed to notice it, and a pair of small white hands directly grabbed Estelle's right hand.
"Come on, sir, the food in our store is very delicious."
While the girl was talking, she pulled Estelle up and walked towards the rich hostess, making him not know how to evade for a moment.
But on second thought,
If the other party really saw something, then as long as he was still in Orario, it would be difficult to escape Freya's surveillance.
At this time, it is meaningless to think about whether to enter the rich hostess; if he insists on leaving here, he will continue to look for a place to stay tonight.
His fierce resistance may also attract the other party's special attention.
Think about it.
Estelle didn't accept it readily; it would be very abrupt, so he said in advance with displeasure, "Let's talk to you first; I only have 5000 valis all over me."
He really only has this amount of money since he has to buy daily necessities like clothes and also repair his equipment.
"Sir, don't worry at all. The price in our store is very affordable. 5000 valis are enough for a night's stay."
In this half-pushed situation, Estelle followed Syr into the Hostess of Fertility.
Under the girl's arrangement, he sat near the bar and ordered food.
The layout here is almost exactly the same as the original, so Estelle didn't feel much surprise but returned to the best state of peace in his heart.
If he was really targeted by Freya, nothing would happen in a short time.
The only worry is if he has a pure soul, but considering her reaction, it doesn't seem that he does.
Because of Freya's strong possessiveness, she will claim what he wants no matter the price, just like Bell Cranel, not to mention he didn't even receive Falna; just call Otter and force him to join.
Think so.
His luck didn't work on God but only influenced them, like having a good impression on them.
So he needs to be cautious when dealing with gods and goddesses.
"Sir, this is the pasta you ordered."
Syr came to Estelle's place with a plate of generous pasta and a happy expression, and then she put a delicate and small black key in front of him.
"The resting room is the third from the left on the second floor. I wish you a pleasant meal."
After all, the girl ran briskly back to the back kitchen.
Following her departure, Estelle's gaze inadvertently swept across a burly middle-aged woman behind the bar.
The other party was wearing a completely different blue costume, and the expression on his face looked kind, but it was more of a masculine boldness.
She is the owner of the Hostess of Fertility, Mia Grand.
The former head of Freya's familia, Lv6, which is Orario's top combat power, is an out-and-out hidden powerhouse.
Estelle didn't dare to linger on her body; after all, Lv6's keen perception is definitely not what he can imagine now.
He also didn't watch those maids and other guests, so as not to be labeled as "sneaky" by this Lv6.
So Estelle buried himself in the pasta on the table.
However, what Estelle didn't know was that when Syr finished talking and left, a green-haired elf carrying a stool inside the rich hostess quickly spotted Estelle.
After seeing Estelle's figure, the green-haired elf was suddenly startled, and his pupils narrowed.
"I found it, the hope of our Astraea familia!" A slightly trembling whisper came from her mouth.
This elf is none other than the last member of the Astraea familia.
Ryuu hesitated for a moment but didn't go since it wasn't time yet.
After a few minutes, he wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth contentedly and put all the 5,000 Valis in his pocket on the table.
He directly picked up the key handed over by Syr and walked up to the second floor without anyone looking at him.
"Crack!" The key unlocked the door, and Estelle entered and locked the door with his backhand.
The whole house is composed of wooden structures, and the furniture is very simple. Apart from the bed for sleeping, there are only bedside tables and an oil lamp on it.
Slightly tired from the battles in the morning, Estelle took off the bow and quiver from his back and waist and put them next to the bedside table.
