“W-w-w-w-w-what the hell are you doing, Edraele!!??” Oz shouted in surprise when he saw the figure that’s lying at his arms.

“Mmmhh,” Edraele didn’t respond.

Oz took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he regains his calm after a while and started to analyze the situation calmly.

“Oi, Edraele,” Oz tried to call her, but Edraele didn’t respond and continue sleeping soundly.

Oz leaked out a sigh.

“She’s already at the land of dreams, huh,” Oz muttered.

Oz tried to lift her body and pull his arms.

“Ouch!” Oz writhed in pain when he felt great pain at his shoulder.

“Eh?” Oz finally realized that his currently half-naked while his hurt shoulder had already got wrapped by brand new bandages.

“Does she takes care of my arms as I was sleeping?” Oz asked himself as he gazed the sleeping half-elf beauty in front of him.

“She usually hides her feelings, and she shows no expression on her face, but she’s actually a kind-hearted girl, huh,” Oz muttered gently as he pats her head, and covers her whole body with the blanket, and stand.

(Wait, as I remember, I slept inside the wagon, right? Then who carries my here?) (Oz)

As he wonders who carried him to this inn, Oz uses his shirt and cloak and leaves the room. Oz tried his best to move silently to not wake Edraele up.

(Reo, the master is sleeping with a beautiful girl at his room, he’s so sinful) (Fenrir)

(It’s normal for a capable man to charm a lot of women, Fenrir) (Reo)

(You guys… Even though we went to the magical forest together…) (Oz)

Oz leaked out another sigh.

“Now, where should we go? My body is too energized to sleep again, and it will be dangerous for my heart if I sleep inside that room,” Oz muttered.

(Even though you’re secretly happy…) (Fenrir)

(I don’t!) (Oz)

(I want some milk, master) (Reo)

“Okay then, let’s grab some meal,” Said Oz.

Oz went to the inn’s canteen and took a seat at the corner. Because it’s already late, there are only people who drink alcohol that remains. A waitress approaches Oz asking what he’ll order.

“Give me three portions of the canteen’s greatest meal and four glasses of milk please,” Ordered Oz.

(Four? There are only three of us here, master. Do you expecting someone?) (Reo)

(It’s for me, I love milk) (Oz)

They waited for several minutes, and the food finally came. The meal that they served is a grilled bird, the bird’s huge and the smell of the seasonings greatly increase the appetite.

Growl~

Oz’s stomach growled as he smelled the food.

Poof!

A black cat and a white dog suddenly appeared at the table in front of Oz together with clouds of smoke.

“Thanks for the meal~” (Reo and Fenrir)

Oz grins when he watches the cute behavior of the mini spirits. Oz also started to eat the delicious meal in front of him. The meat is juicy and soft; it contains a sweetness that combines perfectly with the salty flavor.

Just when Oz is enjoying his meal, two figures suddenly sat beside him and shouted, “Give us two-portion that similar to this guy!”

“You guys… Are you here to disturb my meal?” Asked Oz as he drinks his milk.

“Yup, we’re disturbing your meal as we can’t disturb your peaceful sleep before,” Said Alfred with an evil smirk.

Pfft! Oz spurted his drinks when he heard Alfred’s words.

Cough! Cough! Cough!

He also got choked because of it, and he drinks the milk in a huge gulp to dissipate it.

“Ugh… Both of you knew…” (Oz)

“Well, it’s such a surprise to us, too. We never saw that Edraele to care about someone to that extent,” Said Alfred with a shrug.

“I’m the one who should be surprised the most, by the way, why does Sen keep on staring daggers on me?” Asked Oz.

“It’s just him, being a protective brother,” Alfred answered.

“Seriously, I’m the victim here, you know? I don’t even do anything…” Said Oz.

“Just the fact that you don’t even flinch when you knew our identity already gave a huge impact to Edraele, not only her, we also felt the same way,” (Alfred)

“Even inside our mercenary guild, people will still show a hint of disgust when they knew our identity as the half-elves,” (Alfred)

“What is the reason for that kind of exaggerated reaction? I thought it was quite cool to be a half-elf,” Said Oz as he continued his meal.

“Eh? You’re the only one who’ll ever say that words at this kingdom, every half-bred is considered as a slave in status since they’re born, it’s the law of the continent, it’s not a crime to kill or enslave a half-bred, that’s why people often try to capture us, to sell us to a slave dealer,” Explained Alfred.

“I see, no wonder they gave that kind of reaction,” Said Oz indifferently as he continues to eat.

“Y-you don’t seem to be that surprised,” Said Alfred with a wry smile.

“Well, not that I could change the world’s perspective of half-bred, and not only half-bred even orphans also treated like slaves in this kingdom. And at this age where war could break out anytime, rotten people keep on showing up, while the queen is still busy fighting for power with the nobles, I really want to smack the queen’s head if I met her,” Said Oz with a hint of rage in his eyes.

“And I told you before that I’m the king of a kingdom that have no humans existed right? Well, it soon will be an empire though, I’m friends with elves and even orcs there, how could I be surprised just by meeting three half-elf siblings?” Oz answered indifferently with a shrug.

“Well, you’re not wrong,” (Alfred)

“But Ren, about your kingdom, is it-” Alfred about to ask something, but Oz had already guessed his words.

“You want to join my kingdom? It’s up to you, we accept all races, as long as they’re good eggs though, I’ll bring you guys there one day,” Said Oz with a gentle smile.

“I wish we could go there together one day,” Said Alfred while he closed his eyes.

“About Edraele, we support any decision you made about her,” said Alfred.

“What the hell do you even mean?” Oz pretends to don’t know what Alfred means.

From the beginning to the end, Sen didn’t mutter any sentence and only eat his meal calmly. Oz feign ignorance at his attitude, Alfred eats his meal with a relieved smile and the two spirits seem to be too focused on the meal in front of them.

All of them went back to their room after the meal, Oz forgot that there is Edraele sleeping at his bed, fortunately, there is a wooden chair inside the room, so Oz sits and closed his eyes to take some rest on it.

**********************

The sun had risen; the light pierced through the window, disturbing Oz’s sleep. Oz slowly opened his eyes and stretched his arms. But an unexpected view appears in front of his eyes.

“Um… Edraele, what are you doing?” Asked Oz to the purple-haired girl that is staring his face at a very close distance.

“You’re awake, Ren,” Told her.

“Yes I am, and your face is so close,” Oz said with a wry smile.

“I tried to wake you up, but waking you up is so difficult,” Edraele said with her usual flat tone and expression.

“I-I’m sorry?” (Oz)

*Sound of the door getting knocked*

“Ren! Edraele! It’s almost time to continue our trip to the capital!” Alfred’s voice could be heard from outside.

“Yes Alfred big bro, we’re coming,” Said Edraele as she opened the door.

Oz stands and saw that his bag has already neatly prepared to on top of the bed.

(Just like a wife, huh, Master?) (Fenrir)

(Fenrir, please stop on commenting every time this kind of thing occurred) (Oz)

(But teasing you is so fun, master) (Fenrir)

(You damn dog…) (Oz)

Oz could only leak out a small sigh.

“Let’s go, Ren. We mustn’t be late!” Said, Alfred.

Oz took his bag and followed them to the place where the coachman uncle said he would pick them up. Since Oz slept on his way to the city, he didn’t know where the place is, so he could only obediently follow them.

Different from the mercenary city, this city is far more peaceful and prosper. When they arrived at the place, the coachman had already waiting for them together with an additional two young men.

“What took you guys so long?” Asked the coachman uncle.

“Someone slept too late last night,” said Alfred with a teasing smile to both Oz and Edraele.

“Don’t use words that will make an unnecessary misunderstanding, Alfred. And we’re still 14 years old! We’re underage!” Said Oz with an annoyed tone.

“Well, at this Grandaria kingdom, 14 years old is a marriageable age, Ren,” Said Alfred.

“Are these the people were waiting for, uncle?” Asked a fat young man that used fancy clothes with a rather arrogant tone.

“Who is this fatty, uncle?” Oz asked the coachman uncle, annoyed by the tone used by the fat young noble.

“Y-you didn’t know who this man is, Ren?” Asked the coachman uncle with a surprised face.

The trio beside Oz also shows a surprised face when they saw the fatty.

(Who the hell is this fatty?) (Oz)

The fat young noble snorted.

“Hmph! I’ll feign ignorance of your rudeness because of your peasant identity! So remember this name! I’m the son of the royal head magician, Albus Theodore!” (Albus)
