Eraldine easily dealt with a drunk old man in the streets that ca with a knife asking her for money out of nowhere, was that a thief? Well, he got beaten down easily!
Right, she might be a magician but her Strength stat still increases over ti while leveling… Huh, she’s strong enough to not get assaulted by people in the streets at least, and if that doesn’t work, she can vaporize them with a light beam.
“Uuugh… Gahhh…!”
The old man slowly tried to stand up, his eyes looked so white it was a bit frightening, what’s up with him? I checked his status and suddenly found sothing weird.

Wait, what? What with those Status? [Exhausted], [Drugged], [Hallucinating], [Confused], AND [mory Loss]?! How co he can be inflicted with so many at the sa ti, is this what drinking alcohol makes people when they get drunk? No, wait, he doesn’t have the [Drunk] Status either… What’s even going on in here? He’s certainly not drunk then… What’s… with his Drugged status? Did he consu drugs?
I looked at the man rather worriedly, but Eraldine was going to kick him again, but I stopped her, she looked at with surprise, thinking I was going to just let her smack him again.
“W-Wait! Wait, Eraldine, this guy is drugged… Let inspect him a bit more…”
“Eh? What? O-Okay…” She said.
I looked at the man rather concerned, it was true, he was indeed drugged and looked quite terrible right now, he looked as if he was going through so extre pain for so reason… Ah, well, my Eraldine hit him quite hard.
I looked into his status and found what Drugged was…

Um, ok? It doesn’t say what drug is though! Uagh! Damn it, how can I get to find which drug is it though?! Tell more, System! Analyze him!
The handso voice of the system answered, he seed quite concerned as well.
Huh… I guess we can’t really do much now, eh? Well, let’s leave him here…
“Eraldine, he seems sick, can you heal him?” I wondered.
“I-I can try, but I wouldn’t really want to heal soone that just tried to assault !” She complained.
“…True, well, let’s leave him to die or sothing, it’s not like I feel emotionally attached to the old man.” I said, leaving him to his own fate.
We walked slowly to the Inn, as Lucifer looked at while raising an eyebrow… I couldn’t help but ask him why he was looking at so angrily.
“What?”
“You showed to be worried but then just kind of dropped him into the ground?” He asked.
“Eh? I was only worried about the drug, not about the random old man!” I said.
“My Lady is like this; she doesn’t care about people.” Said Partner.
“I an I know she’s not that empathic with random people unless they’re slaves or sothing, but still, your ntality sotis is weird.” He said.
“Well yeah I died.” I said. “I am a bit crazy inside, my nature by itself is wicked but I try to not be wicked if possible. Rember the primary reason why ghosts are ford? We are made out of resentnt… So… Well, I am kind of insane all the ti, if I stop being like this, I might disappear for all we know.”
“Eeeh?! No, I don’t want you to disappear, Master!” Cried Partner, as she hugged tightly.
“P-Partner, I am joking!” I sighed, as I petted her. “Calm down…”
“W-Well, if we put it into perspective, she got angry at him because he tried to stab , Lucifer…” Sighed Eraldine. “Also, we ca here to help the duchy and the new Duchess… So that’s include that guy, leaving him there is the convenient thing to do, picking him up like we did with the slaves before is not convenient now that we plan to stay for so ti in here, we are not in the move to carry poor people without the ability to do things yet… And honestly I don’t care about drunkards that assault won.”
“Okay, I get it, I am not defending that random guy either, so let’s calm down…” Sighed Lucifer. “I shouldn’t had even asked this stupid question… I know Maria is a good person, but being a good person doesn’t an saving literally everybody, it is just trying to do what we can.”
“Yeah! Good thinking, I don’t really know what’s the definitive aning of being “good” and I do have so wicked sides to , but I honestly just try to be nice most of the ti, since the beginning that I helped you when I could had just ignored you, rember?” I asked.
“Yes, I rember, or when you helped the goblins too…” Sighed Lucifer. “You’re indeed a good girl. You just have a strong bias against humans.”
“Yeah, I am a bit biased against humans but I am trying to overco this…” I sighed. “I used to be one too, so I have to think that when I get too overly stupid.”
After the little discussion, we made our way into a simple Inn; we bought a room with two beds on it and we moved there. My Inventory was able to easily store things, another bed quickly ca out, and then a last one from it, placing them in the room so everybody could sleep in a bed… And then we decided to rest until morning…
