Chapter: 5
"Wake up Paul!!, were about to open the shop!"
Inside the shop storage, Paul sleeping figure was awaken by The Elf with Blue hair. His name is Rio. The receptionist of the shop his working in, from today onwards.
"why are you still not moving?!" Rio
"Im already awake..." Paul said as he slowly opens his eyes, while he began cleaning up his bed, folding it and changing his cloths into his working outfit. He stare at his own mirror reflection.
When Paul is still in earth his appearance have strong resemblance to boy version, of Arturia Pendragon in fate/stay night series, but after coming to this World, He now have her unique Elegance kingly aura and some of her delicate looks. making anyone who took a glimse of him. feel that his from some kind of Royal Bloodline.
"I become even more handsome...?" Paul stroke his chin in deep thought.
"This Paul... does he posses an elf royalties blood or something...?" Rio felt astonished when he see Paul new look because he already met him earlier.
He was shocked too. when he First met Paul with his majestic bearing and beautiful appearance, but now for some reason He felt attracted to Paul even more.
Elves have a inborn feeling of being attract to nature spirits so Rio being attract to Paul is normal. He have been blessed by high level wind spirit yesterday night after all.
Paul start to arrange the shop items, without a word to Rio. He already know what to do because Annie-san. the shop manager already inform him. about his work here yesterday.
A groups of Adventurer came to resupply their items making the small shop crowdy. Paul watch at the side as Rio handle all of the orders.
Paul job is about moving items from there to there. He's now like a baggage boy but he really didn't dislike this kind of work or more like his kind of used to it because back in Earth, He do some part time job like this. due to his family circumstance.
.....
-1 month passed, Night Time-
"i would like to thank you Miss Annie and Mister Rio for taking care of me in this 1 month of time" Paul bows his head lowly to the two elves infront of him because he really felt thankful to both of them.
"Ara-ara your really a good boy Paul-kun" A big breasted beautiful elf pats Paul head gently. "How about i reward you for being a good boy before you leave...?"
Her name is Annie Callen The manager of Item shop that Paul worked in the past 1 months. She has long golden blonde hair, which some are in a braid, and there was a grass like decoration placed on her head. she has long ears which are tapered to a point. Her neck, her torso, and her limbs were all long and narrow. Unlike most female Elves, she has large breasts.
She wears a green tunic, and since it was only tied up with strings in several places, her skin could be seen from the fluttering of it.
Paul already got used to her teasing in this past month, so he ignored her.
Rio look at the side without showing his facial expression "g-go and d-do not come back again here..."
"why are you crying...? its not like we will not see each other again... i will visit here sometimes whenever i have free time.."
Paul know what kind of expression Rio is having now, because the two of them become really close in this 1 month time and He discovered that his a Tsundere character type.
"w-who's crying!?! im not crying at all!! you should go now and do not talk nonesense. before i bash your head!!!" Rio suddenly yelled at Paul in threatening tone but His back is still facing Paul making him look funny.
"pffft is that how an elf should act?..-! alright ill gonna leave now then. Bye Annie-san and Rio-san thank you again. See you next time!" Paul hastly left because he saw Rio back trembled in anger and embarressment. when he heard him laughed at his antics.

-Orario City Streets in Night time-
"One month have already passed before i know it.. hays. Since i can't go back to earth for now. I should explore this world instead..." I whispered while wearing a casual adventurer clothes. The high class armor and some daily necessary are inside of the big backpack behind my back.
When im staying in the Item shop i discovered that, I really couldn't go back to Earth. I couldn't even find the bathroom that transported me here.
20 days ago I met with Ryuu and Syr again. I asked them. where did they first found my collapsed figure.
They just brought me at the dark empty alley. Where they first found me.
Without a clue or lead to go back to earth. I felt hopeless but i recovered quickly. I decided to focus in strengthening myself and discovering about my powers in the past few weeks. To live a life that i can enjoy in this new dangerous world.
"I don't know how strong am i right now but i should have enough strength to protect myself if something wrong happened"
'hmm.. but before i go and explore this world. I need to find a trustable God or Goddess first. The blessing of falna might make me more powerful faster.' While im walking with a thoughtful on expression on my face, someone suddenly bumped on me.
The boy that collide with me almost fell to the ground but he still continued to run. after regaining his balance.
"Bell...?" I subconsciously looked at the boy running desperate back. It seems Bell isn't in his right mood to talk with me.
"Bell-san!!!!" Syr shouted as she just came out from the Hostess of Fertility Bar and Aiz the Sword Princess of Loki Familia is with her.
I stare at them before before realizing something. I turn my gaze again to where Bell disappeared. 'So the Plot in the Anime already started...?'
I remember this scenario in anime. where Bell is being mocked inside the bar by Bete of Loki Familia.
'should i help him..? hmmm but helping Bell now will just hinder his growth'
"eh Paul-san?" Syr seems surprised seeing him here because Paul should be on working hours right now in the Annie potion shop.
"Hi Syr-san, we met again. by the way what happened here?" Im pretending to not know anything for now. so i asked her.
"ah.. Its Bell-san... i don't know the situation but he suddenly run off after eating his food...." Syr looked a bit confused and worried for him.
"i see.. wait, did Bell already payed his bill?"
"Not yet-" Syr
"Let me pay for it then. I owe him some treats from the apple before." I gave Syr some Valis.
"This is too much Paul-san. wait ill get you the change" Syr.
"no need, Just order me a food that will cover the spare"
"Alright!" Syr goes back inside the bar.
Aiz is the only one left here outside. she's staring at me with burning gaze...?
'eh wait wait. why is she-'
She began to approach me then after standing infront of me. she gaze at me like inspecting some weird creature.
"Are you a human.....?"
"Of course i am." I said calmly. 'I almost lost my cool there. Why did this heroine suddenly got interested in me?'
"Oi~ Aiz-tan! come back here! where not finished yet. The night is still long!" Loki shout came from inside the bar. "Eh who's that man besides you?! Aiz-tan! you can't cheat on your goddes like this!!"
"Hi Loki-sama, long time no see" I politely greeted her and got out of Aiz cornering.
"Oya isn't this Paul?" Loki regained her senses after she heard his familiar voice.
I came inside the Hostess bar too and sat on one of the emty sit near Loki.
"Heh.. why are you here Paul? don't tell me. You changed your mind and decided to join my familia~?" Loki said playfully as she drunk a mouthful of beer.
"Actually..."
Syr put a cooked large fish on my table. "Here's your order Paul-san, its today special!. Enjoy "
"Actually?" Aiz sat besides Loki after coming back inside. She have a curious expression on her face.
"Loki-sama, I want to join your familia but i have two conditio-"
"Yosha!! Everyone come here and welcome our new member!!!!" Loki suddenly shouted at her familia members who are busy drinking and punishing the drunk Bete
Bete is being tied up to the ceiling in unexplainable daring position.
"new member?" All of the Loki familia couldn't help but turn their attention to Paul.
