"I think this is the place"
Amazaki arrives at a place that looks like a two- or three-story building made of wood with a sign swaying in the breeze
The wind is light at the entrance, and the sign says "Rest Inn." As Amazaki approaches the building, he hears the laughter of people coming
He opens the door and finds the place full of people who are drunk from drinking too much, and there are some who have fainted from drinking too much
The strange thing is that they are all staring with contemplative and lustful looks at a woman standing there who appears to be the owner of the shop
While Amazaki was not paying attention, a girl wearing clothes resembling maids' clothes came forward, while wearing a thin scarf covering her face. It seemed that she was working in this place. She said in a tone of shame and some anger while bowing her head so that she could barely see anything but her blue hair, which was almost black, as if she was trying not to look into Amazaki's eyes.
"Welcome... Sir... Do you want... a bed, a drink or... or food?"
Amazaki put his hand to his chin as if he was confused about something and said
"Hmm...have we met before?"
Then the girl suddenly turned in the opposite direction and said in a tense tone, as if she was ignoring him
"No….I don't think so….ah..did you call me, I'm coming….bye sir, it seems I'm busy so go to the owner of the place over there…haha,bye."
As Amazaki looks at her walking away, he says to himself
"Really suspicious, but this is not the time."
Then he went to the woman whom the girl had pointed out, and who was the same woman who everyone present was staring at
The woman looked like she was in her twenties, her face still fresh and beautiful like a ripe fruit, her charming brown eyes, and her black hair that looked like silk, so much so that most of those who came to the inn to drink came just to contemplate her beauty and her charming smile, and how many people had proposed to her to marry them but were rejected, and yet They still come as if their fatigue and suffering throughout the day disappears as soon as they see her charming smile
Suddenly, a man bowed to the ground in a poetic manner. It seemed from his elegant clothes that he was one of the nobles. He said
"Please marry me, Miss Miyuki. My life will not be complete without you... Ah, even your name is beautiful and indicates happiness. I hope you will accept me this time."
She replied while placing her hands on her face as if she had seen this scene hundreds of times
"Come on...haven't you given up yet? This is the ninth time this month and the answer is still the same and will remain the same: no."
As soon as he heard her response, tears began to flow from his eyes in a pathetic way as he said
"But I really love you and my father is very rich so I can provide everything you need. Is there a man who will do all this for you other than me?"
The woman replied, sighing
"So let me ask you, why do you love me?"
He replies shyly
"Well... you are beautiful... no, very beautiful, and every time I see your smile, I forget all my worries.."
She interrupted him with a cold tone
"This is not love...it is just admiration that will disappear with time."
So the man tried to defend himself, but he could not find anything to say. He lowered his head to face the ground and headed toward the exit, frustrated and sad. Not because she rejected him, but because he realized that everything she said was only the truth, and this truth was like a sword stuck in his heart. He actually did not know her and did not speak to her in a normal conversation. About her was just one of those times that he confessed to her and all his thoughts were to seize her beauty for himself, and this was an unforgettable lesson for him.
Amazaki looks at what happened as if he is watching a stupid play and says to himself:
"Finally this skit is over, even though it didn't make me laugh."
He called the hostel owner
"Excuse me"
She responded to him in a respectful manner, ignoring what happened now
"You can call me Miyuki, how can I serve you?"
"Okay, Miss Miyuki, my name is Amazaki, I want a room, so how much does it cost tonight?"
So she responds
"Just like all hostels in the city, one day costs 3 gold pieces, and with three meals it costs 5 gold pieces."
Amazaki replied while he was confused
"I'm not sure how many days I'll stay so take 5 for tonight first and hope someone brings food to my room."
So she answers him
"Okay, Mr. Amazaki, your room is the third door on the right on the second floor."
"Thank you"
As Amazaki climbed the stairs, the girl who spoke to him when he entered kept looking at him as if he were her worst enemy
Even Amazaki felt uncomfortable and thought to himself
"What is this strange feeling? Is there anyone watching me?
He continued on his way to the second floor to disappear from the sight of that girl, who then ignored him and continued her work
Amazaki says to himself
"Hmm... that feeling has disappeared. Was I imagining... well it doesn't matter, all I care about now is sleep."
He reaches the room mentioned to him and opens the door
The room was small and okay. There was a furnished bed and sheets that looked faded from being washed many times. As soon as he sat in his bed, he heard someone knocking on his room door.
"From there"
That voice answers
"It's me, Miyuki."
Amazaki says to himself
"Hmm… the inn owner?"
He went to open the door and was surprised by the hostel's owner carrying plates of food
She said
"Here is the food as you requested."
Thank you, but were you the one who delivers food to all the rooms? I thought there would be workers doing this work."
In fact, your opinion is correct, but unfortunately it is late and most of the workers have already gone to sleep and there is nothing left."
"Other than me and the girl downstairs... but you're lucky I can deliver food myself
He responded as if he wasn't interested
"Ahh...well I don't care who delivers it, I was just wondering."
So Amazaki takes the dishes from her hand and the woman says again
"So I bid you farewell now and wish you a good night."
He answers her
"Thank you for the food"
He closes the door, puts the food on the table, and then starts eating
After he finishes eating, he goes to sleep in his bed. As soon as he lies down, he feels as if his fatigue is disappearing little by little, while he almost surrenders to sleep, saying to himself.
"Ahh, my first night in this world."
.........…
Early in the morning, Amazaki wakes up and then goes out for a run. It seems that this is his habit in the previous world. He runs through the empty alleys, and the city at that time seems as if the entire city is still asleep. After he ran for half an hour, he began to see the shop owners opening their shops. Little by little, the silent city began to bustle with people everywhere.
After he finished warming up, he ran back to the inn to see the innkeeper, Miyuki, sprinkling water in front of the entrance for fear of dust entering her place, and as soon as she saw him coming in his sweat, she said:
"The bathroom is ready, you can go in while I prepare breakfast."
"Well, thank you"
Then he went up to take a shower and felt all his fatigue lifting from his back
"Ahhh"
Then he comes out of the bathroom after he finishes, feeling energetic while putting on a towel to cover what is underneath him
He suddenly passed by the mirror in the bathroom while muttering to himself
But he froze and they suddenly fell into place as if he had seen a ghost and said to himself
"What the heck was that?"
He goes back to the mirror and turns around and finds something strange
"What is this? tattoo? I don't remember smelling him at all and just looking at him gives me goosebumps?
The tattoo was a tattoo of an angry dragon. Once you stared at it for a long time, it made you feel like it was alive. This tattoo was large and covered his entire back.
Amazaki said in astonishment
"Did it appear because I moved to this world? But he is not in my arms, as that stupid princess said about heroes."
"Well it doesn't matter, it looks great anyway."
Then he got dressed and went down to have breakfast
But he is surprised by something he did not expect
"Here you are, my friend. I intended to wait for you in front of the library, but I saw you entering this hostel, so I said to myself, why don't I wait for you here instead of this, ha ha ha, there is no need to thank me, you know."
It was that chatterbox from the library
Amazaki began to say to himself
"Was he serious about what he said then? I had forgotten about him *sigh* and I thought this day would be good."
Kyle continued
"Come on, haven't you eaten breakfast yet, don't worry, I haven't either, so let's eat it together."
Amazaki sighed again and said to himself
"It doesn't matter, I don't have any plans yet, so let's see if this military school is interesting."
