It was a bit unusual that the owner of the inn was a bearded man who looked like a gang leader. Generally, there are beautiful and well-groomed people at the reception of a hotel, because it was quite normal for a person to want a safe place to sleep at night, so people who would give people a feeling of reliability at first glance worked at the reception.
"Are there any spare rooms?"
"How old are you, brat? Aren't you too young to get a girl drunk and take her to bed?"
Although almost the entire body of the girl in my arms was hidden by a bad cloth, her bare feet were visible because the cover was not large enough.
I avoided the inn owner's ridiculous question as best I could.
"Is there a certain age limit to stay here?"
"Hahaha, you ignored my second question, you are an interesting kid, I liked you, brat. Don't worry, there is no age limit to stay here, all you need is money."
"I need four single rooms"
The owner of the inn, who was stroking his beard, looked a little disappointed when he heard what I said.
"Single huh? No way. I only have two double rooms left and these rooms are not for couples, so they have single beds."
This means there are only two rooms left for two people. In fact, even though it was just starting to get dark, the area where I was currently located, which was used as both the ground floor and the living room, was filled with many different people, some of them sitting at the tables and eating, while others were sitting on the large armchairs and chatting. A young and handsome boy who came carrying a girl who looked the same age as him attracted the attention of many people.
"Where else is there an inn in this town?"
"There are two other inns in this town besides mine, but they must be full already. Unlike mine, those inns are in the center of the town."
The man might have been right in what he said, because an inn located in the center of the town would attract customers more quickly than the inn here. After thinking for a while, I decided to rent these two rooms
"Okay, I will buy these two rooms, how much do I have to pay?"
"Total price 2 silver 40 bronze coins"
2 silver 40 bronze coins? Isn't it too cheap? I secretly took out 3 silver coins from my storage area and handed them to the inn owner, and in return I received 60 bronze coins from the inn owner.
As I started to go up the stairs on the right side of the hall to the rooms on the upper floor, a man who had difficulty standing due to excessive alcohol consumption passed in front of me.
"Hey hey young man. Are you just going to go to your room? Why don't you come and sit with us for a while?"
Where did this guy come from? He has a sword hanging around his waist, but in his current state, I doubt he can even unsheathe it. My goal here is not to draw too much attention...
"I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry. I have to leave this girl in her room to sleep, and my other friends are still waiting for me."
I bowed a little respectfully because I wanted to handle this as civilly as I could, but the stupid bastard reached out with surprising speed and lifted the cover that was hiding the face of the unconscious senior in my lap.
"Just as I predicted; the girl carried by such a cute boy must definitely be a beauty."
Annoying dude!
Many of the people sitting in the tavern were actually mercenaries working as guards for the same merchant convoy, and almost all of them were one or two-star swordsmen. While these people were laughing at their friends doing stupid things while drunk, they suddenly fell silent when they encountered an unexpected sight.
The little boy they were making fun of threw two fireballs from the tip of his finger, almost the size of marbles, and pierced both of the drunk man's kneecaps at the same time. While the drunk man fell to the ground screaming in pain, the boy continued to go to his room as if nothing had happened.
Seeing the situation of his friends, the mercenaries were about to leave their seats in anger, while a young man sitting alone at the back of the hall with his long hair tied into a bun made everyone sit down with a simple order.
Yuto realized what was happening, but his sixth sense told him that no one here was strong enough to pose a threat to him.
Under normal circumstances, Yuto would not be affected by such a simple provocation, as someone who had gotten used to being a butler over time, but because of the possibility that the girl in his arms was still awake and observing him, Yuto showed no mercy to the man in front of him.

The rooms I could distinguish were two rooms almost completely far from each other. One of the rooms was on the far right of the second floor, while the other room was on the far left of the third floor.
Since I was responsible for ensuring the safety of Shizune and Natalia, this was a bit challenging for me, but I managed to quickly overcome this problem thanks to a solution that came to my mind.
I went to the room on the second floor, unlocked it and went in. If the senior doesn't wake up and kick me out of the room, we will share this room.
The main reason for this is that if someone were to actually target Shizune and Natalia, they would have to pass by my room. The footsteps would probably wake me up too at this point.
While I was busy with my thoughts, I gently laid the girl in my arms on one of the beds and sat in my own bed for a while, waiting for her to wake up.
After a few minutes, when I saw no sign of waking up, I remembered that she was hungry and went into my storage area.
I took a few kinds of desserts and pastries from the huge pile of snacks that I had prepared for Shizune's afternoon tea and placed them in a magic device of my own invention, placed them on a plate and returned to the room.
Since there was no drink next to the plate of food I prepared, I went downstairs and bought fresh fruit juice.
After placing the plate and drink on the only table in the room, I left a small note on the table and headed out to the girls waiting for me outside of town.
