As we made our way through the dimly lit streets of E-Rantel, the city was already settling into the quiet of the night. The air was crisp, carrying the lingering scent of damp stone and the faint aroma of street food from the market district.
Clentine walked slightly ahead of , her hands resting casually behind her head, her armor clinking softly with each step. Solution followed beside , ever poised and elegant, as though she were gliding rather than walking.
Eventually, we arrived at the rundown inn where I had been staying.
Clentine stopped at the entrance, glancing up at the modest wooden structure before turning her attention to .
"This is your place?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
I stepped past her, pushing open the creaking door. "Yeah."
As soon as we entered, Clentine took a look around, her expression twisting into mild disgust. The room was small and bare-bones—just a single wooden bed, a wobbly table, and a tiny window that barely let in any light. The air carried a faint mustiness, and the floorboards creaked under our weight.
Clentine wrinkled her nose. "This is so low-class. Feels like a place where low-rank adventurers co to die after a long day of failure."
Solution and I exchanged glances.
"We only arrived in this world recently," I said finally. "We didn’t know which places were good. This one was recomnded by the Adventurer’s Guild."
Clentine gave a long, searching look. Then she smirked. "Hah, ’arrived in this world,’ huh? That’s a weird way to put it."
I leaned against the wall, arms crossed. "Because it’s the truth."
She tilted her head, intrigued. "Explain."
I t her gaze evenly. "I’m a traveler—soone who moves across different worlds. This is the third world I’ve visited."
Silence.
Clentine stared at , her amber eyes narrowing as she processed my words.
Then, she suddenly burst into laughter. "Pffft—Hahahaha! Oh, that’s a good one! And here I thought you were actually serious!"
I remained silent.
Her laughter slowed. She looked at again, this ti searching for any hint of a joke in my expression.
There was none.
The amusent in her face gradually faded. "Wait. You’re not kidding?"
I shook my head. "No."
Clentine opened her mouth, then shut it. She looked at Solution for confirmation, but Solution only smiled.
"Huh..." Clentine muttered, her fingers tapping against her hip. "So let get this straight. You—Alex, my so-called ’master’—can hop between worlds?"
"Yes."
She folded her arms, her gaze sharpening. "Why?"
I let the question hang in the air for a mont before answering.
"For power. For experience. For curiosity."
Then, I looked her straight in the eye.
"And to et soone like you."
Clentine blinked.
For the second ti since I t her, she looked... caught off guard.
It only lasted for a second, but I caught the way her lips parted slightly, how her body stiffened ever so subtly. Then, just as quickly, she covered it up with a smirk.
"Heh. What, you travel through worlds just to pick up won?"
"Not just any woman," I replied smoothly.
She snorted. "Oh please, you must say that to every girl you et."
I shrugged. "Believe what you want."
Clentine exhaled, shaking her head. "Hah, well, whatever. It is interesting; I’ll give you that. You’re definitely not normal. Though, I guess I already knew that when you pulled my damn stiletto out of your chest like it was nothing."
Her fingers brushed against the side of her neck absentmindedly—the sa spot where I had bitten her earlier.
She then glanced around the dingy room again before clicking her tongue. "Still, if you’re that special, why the hell are you staying in a dump like this? As my new master—of sorts—I could arrange a proper place for you. A fantasy-like mansion, or even a fortress, if that’s your thing."
Solution gave a questioning look, silently asking if I wanted her to take care of it.
But I shook my head.
"Not necessary," I said. "We’re heading to Re-Estize tomorrow."
Clentine raised an eyebrow. "Re-Estize? Huh. Well, that’s a sha. I was hoping to enjoy so luxury for once."
"You’ll live," I said, walking over to the bed and sitting down. "Besides, traveling is more fun than being tied down in one place."
Clentine humd in thought. "Can’t argue with that." She then stretched, her back arching slightly, revealing the toned muscles of her stomach.
"Well, if we’re leaving tomorrow, I better get so rest. Unlike you, I actually need sleep."
She dropped down onto a chair, resting her arms behind her head, looking surprisingly relaxed.
Solution, ever poised, moved to stand behind . "Shall I prepare anything, Alex-sama?"
I shook my head. "Not tonight. Just rest."
She gave a slight nod. "Understood."
Clentine watched our interaction with a curious look before smirking again. "You really do live like so kind of fantasy overlord, huh?"
I chuckled. "Sothing like that."
