Chapter 160: Body Has, Gotten Used To
Rin sat in the cluttered room, thinking for an hour, finally making up his mind.
Tonight, we must find that woman and figure out if she really has the Image Crystal. We need to either persuade her or trick her into giving it back to us.
If we can’t win in a fight, we could always ask Yuki… No, the impulsive Sword Saint might cause trouble. It’s better to find Suyu instead.
Even if it’s embarrassing, it’s better to have the fox hold something against us than to deal with the consequences. It’s not the first time we’ve felt ashamed in front of the fox anyway…
After making a decision, Rin set off for the agreed-upon commercial street.
Earlier, it was arranged to have a meal with the silly elk and also bring along Waste Hero, the quiet Hero who Rin treated like a disobedient pet that he could take outside with him.
The fox would have a lot to handle when she returned, so Rin didn’t invite her. Besides, they had shared a bed for a night before, and he hadn’t yet adjusted his feelings.
Arriving at the old spot near the central fountain took half an hour longer than expected.
By this time, the silly elk and Waste Hero had already arrived. They were playing rock-paper-scissors by the fountain, attracting onlookers.
Many people had seen the little princess before, remembering Elise as an angelic figure loved by everyone. However, due to her status and the hidden royal guards, commoners wouldn’t approach her without reason.
But that didn’t stop them from watching the princess play childish games with her friends with kind eyes.
Of course, when Rin appeared, the friendly atmosphere disappeared and the crowd scattered.
"Rock, paper, scissors!"
"Scissors!"
"Oh no, it’s a tie again! Silly Emilia, don’t always pick the same as others!"
"I picked scissors, silly elk, why did you also choose rock?"
"Let’s play again!"
The two girls looked serious and focused, deeply engrossed in the game. Rin stood at a distance, his mouth twitching.
It was the first time he had seen the same hand gestures in rock-paper-scissors thirty-seven or thirty-eight times in a row, which was really strange.
Rin felt much better when he saw silly elk and Waste Hero, his worries disappeared and he felt happier.
With such good friends who trust each other, nothing can harm him!
Rin quietly approached the two, with a mischievous plan in mind.
Normally he would have noticed Elise immediately, but this time he was completely unaware.
Maybe ahoge hair was focused on something else, so he couldn’t pay attention to everything at once.
With a wicked smile on his face, Rin suddenly jumped in front of them and shouted, "Silly!"
Waste Hero flinched, her hand clenched into a fist and looked blankly at silly elk’s open palm.
"Yay! I win! Hehehe! Little Rin~ knows that Little Rin is the best to me!"
Silly elk quickly credited Rin for the victory, then hugged him tightly and rubbed her cheek against him.
Waste Hero stood silly for a moment, turned to look at Rin, "Tundere, too much."
"Tsk tsk, can’t blame me for this. A hero like you getting distracted so easily, sigh, feeling desperate for this continent to have such an incompetent cat."
Rin said, pulling the silly elk’s ahoge hair, "And you! Don’t rub against me in public!"
The two girls simultaneously noticed the wound on his lips.
"Tundere, lips?"
"What happened to Little Rin’s mouth?!"
Rin touched his mouth, "Oh, this, I accidentally bit it…"
"Liar, why would there be a lip wound cursed to remain unhealed for three days?"
The expressionless Hero’s Observation Eye skillfully and adeptly took a quick look at Rin’s condition, revealing not only the original curse but also a temporary additional curse behind it.
The previous curse was unknown, but the following one had detailed explanations.
"Hoot hoot?"
Even the silly elk felt something was not right, immediately wanting to cast a Purification Spell on Rin, but got stopped by Waste Hero.
Emilia’s lifeless eyes, hiding a hint of sharpness, reached out to grab Rin’s clothes.
"Hey! What crazy thing is the foolish cat doing again!"
Rin quickly stepped back two paces, gripping his collar tightly, looking left and right, and gritting his teeth.
"Emilia, there are many people here, you can’t act like this."
Emilia pondered for a moment, nodded slowly, just when Rin thought he had dodged a bullet, she suddenly spoke up, "Last night, were you with, the bad fox?"
Oh my goodness, how did this guy find out!
Rin looked very surprised, and the silly elk also realized what was happening. She sniffed at Rin, her eyes turning red. She started crying, saying, "Oh no, it’s true! I can smell the scent of bad women! Oh, Little Rin, you promised me before!"
Rin started to feel a headache coming on. Before things got out of hand, Rin, who had dealt with similar situations before, quickly covered the silly elk’s mouth to silence him and allowed Emilia to pick and eat two strawberries.
Although most people had been scared away by Rin’s reputation, there were still some onlookers in the crowd who could see what was happening.
Nobody knew how this scene would spread.
Sadly, he didn’t feel any shame inside. His body had grown accustomed to it, and he even found all kinds of kisses somewhat pleasant.
Finally, he sighed and took both hands of the silly elk, saying, "Alright, let’s go. I’ve humbled myself enough. Don’t stay here feeling embarrassed. Follow me."
Waste Hero walked forward blankly as Rin led her, seemingly unaffected, but inside, a fire was lit. The intense experiences had made her determined to improve herself and at least be able to beat Suyu.
The dizzy silly elk regained his senses and thought about the bad women. He glanced at Rin’s profile and the hand holding him, silently making up his mind.
Just like her sister said, she had to quickly make Little Rin hers!
"Um, Little Rin…I have something to tell you."
"Huh?"
Elise looked hopeful and said, "There’s a family banquet today, and we hope Little Rin can join us! Mother and sister are looking forward to seeing Little Rin."
Rin thought to himself, it was a coincidence, he was just thinking of how to go to the palace when he received an invitation from the silly elk, so it was a perfect opportunity.
"Alright, since it’s an invitation from Her Majesty the Queen, I must show proper etiquette."
As for the princess, let’s forget about her. She has invited Rin before, but he didn’t want to deal with her and made excuses to decline.
"Great! Hehe! I will definitely have a happy evening with Little Rin!"
Hmm? Why does that sound…odd?
