I can't take it anymore!!
Can't relax in the bath like pond, when there's a girl playing in it...
Oh, don't misunderstand me, of course am covering mine manhood, it's a leather anyway, so I can dry it the same I dry me self with the black cape.
Doesn't matter how long I stay on the hotspring, as long as one complete dive for few seconds is enough to get one clone at the end of the day
Just that I want to enjoy mine early bath, it became a habit that takes time, unintentionally...
Come out.
Am calling the girl.. Of course to dry her body before we get out, it's cold outside.
Me lord?
Huh? Aslan..!?
When did he come back? It's not that long after he left!!
No, me... Would be no.135
Number...! You mean~ no.05/17?
Guess so..
He have mine mentality from yesterday and before, it shouldn't be hard to understand, so why the uncertainty?
Where have you been? Did you not meet Aslan on the way here??
I ask while drying the red long hair.
Me was at the women changing place, it were so dark at night, me don't want to wake anybody or make a fuss over nothing, hence me went directly to that warm place and slept there till now..!
.
Which mean he didn't meet Aslan, but something irritate me..
Why are you still fully naked??
I wrapped the girl with mine cape, and held her so she can't look at the naked adult standing beside me, and started the scolding.
Me didn't have the chance to get me leathers, because me just wake up.
Even so, the leathers reserve in the other side of the cave, why did he come here?
Am starving to death me lord!
Hungry Huh??
So he slept while hungry, and now starving!!
Well, am hungry too, we will eat together so soon, get your leathers first, you can wait for a couple of minutes, right!?
Yes...
And he left after one word, sigh..
Don't tell me he's going to become the lazy version of me!! Or the rude type, please don't.
Back to the topic at hand...
Like literally she's at mine hands
What's your name??
Standing like a cute red ghost with the black cape covering her tiny body, she says nothing like usual...
I mean she can speak, like earlier calling me "papa"...
Ahem, am not waiting her to call me that, just I find it strange that she kept her silence after she realized am awake!!!
She's not scared of me, right??
No way!! Or she would be running away, right!
.
I took her to the women dresses, there should be at least one dress that suite her tiny body, not only because her shabby and torn clothes, but especially because it's wet, she'll catch a cold.
Here it is...
Days after that woman tricked me, we arranged the clothes here, so it become easy to find a proper dress for similar cases.
Sorry if you don't like it, but bear with this for now..
No response, not even a nod!!
Ok, wear it then.
I gave it to her and turned mine back!
Moments later I heard nothing
Finished yet?
Also no response!?
I take a look, but she didn't move, the dress on her arms like I left it
Don't tell?
Can't you wear it??
Oh damn it, is this another test???
Damn it, damn it...
I kept repeating that looking away while helping her dress up, sadly no underwears avaliable, but luckily there's these like long pair of socks connected with what looks like boxer, what they calls it? A legging??
I would call for help from any woman out there, but what would they think of me??
Me lord??
What is it now?
I snap at someone!!
Aa.. Aslan? And... Who?
Took me by surprise, I mean he brought a pretty woman with him..
Sorry me lord, I didn't mean to interrupt again.
Stop with the dirty mind jokes, am not playing here...
What's up with him, like he caught me red handed or something?
.
Me do really apologize, me lord!
So they thought I was harassing the girl when they saw me tightens the lace with mine teath, because it's not long enough, or maybe the dress for a smaller body size??
He apologized, like I care...
And this woman be..?
She's madam Aon, an active member of the merchant expedition...
Expedition you say?
May I your majesty?
She's asking for permission to say what Aslan didn't, probably!
Speak!
The name is Fauna Aon, the head of the Aon merchant group, although we went in the risky journey with the Koro merchant guild, after we finish our goal, the deal with mr. Koro end, hence we call it expedition.
A bit late, but good for introduction.
Before I ask about anything else, what's your connection with this girl??
Yeah, this is the most important question now.
An adopted daughter!
The little girl's reaction oppose her claim, the woman sitting infront of me, and the girl is sitting beside me, on the same trunk, which makes me wonder..
.
Please no hurry to judge..
Hurriedly she continue to clear the misunderstanding, not waiting mine reply nor mine permission, am I staring at her with doubts? Is it that clear?
Explain, am listening!!
Once again I gave her the permission to speak, after she stopped when she realized her rudeness.
Happened recently, right before we entered the dark forest were we met shipment of slaves, to be more accurate the recon team did, if not for their heroic acts and fast respons we wouldn't free the victims and...
Why did she stop here looking left and right, not moving here head, is there some secret info that she can't tell?
This girl one of the victims??
The.. Ahem, the victims were freed, but Ginger.. this little girl was the youngest, without anywhere to return to, so I took her with me, with us in our expedition, since there's no where to make the official adoption, there's no way to prove that I'm her adoptive mother!!
Though make sense, but this doesn't seem like everything, right!!
Ginger?? Is this your name?
Seems like a nickname of sort, so am asking the girl directly
She's noding left and right...
So it was a random name Huh!!
Ee..! We could not guess the name, so we went with mr. Koro's suggestion!
I didn't ask, unintentionally mine thoughts came out, kind of embarrassing.
This is not going anywhere, the only reason am talking to you is to know why this little Jalapeno is so attached to me! Do you have any idea why??
Ja.. Jalapeno?
Jalapenos? Me lord is not thinking about!!
I don't care what they think or what Aslan's guess, because little Jalapeno liked the name, look at her so embarrassed covering her face!
But "Jalapeno" is a green hot chili me lord!!
And I thought he had something important to say, moreover madam Fauna just learnt a new word by Aslan's.., I mean she's a merchant, how come she doesn't know what is jalapenos?? Or is it an unpopular vegetable? Or perhaps the name is different here?
