5 A Demon's occupation (1)

I begin to sip of what I suppose is wine, when 3 persons approached me.

One was a guy, the other two were women while one of them seemed to be an elf.

{No, her ears are longer than the elves I already saw though.}

{That's a High-Elf. They're rare and almost all of them are either nobles or royalties. They also have a great control of Earth and Wind magic.}

{Is she a royalty then ?}

{I dunno, but the only royalties in Rayshald Kingdom are humans, so I doubt it.}

"Hello, sorry to interupt your meal, we just wanted to talk a little."

The women following the guy as he talks to me.

"Umm. Hello, take a seat then."

As the three sits, I still wonder what do they want to someone who just came ?

I mean, it's not like I've beaten up some high rank adventurer or caused any troubles, right ?

"So, what do you want ?"

"Nothing really, we just wanted to greet a newcomer who's rich enough to eat here, it's not that common you know since it's really expensive. So, where do you come from ?"

Ah- I expected someone who wanted something from me but he apparently just wanna be acquainted to some rich guy huh. I guess being acquainted with more rich persons can bring up your reputation.

"Well, I've come here from a faraway country and I'd want to know if there is things to do here while also judging the best cooking."

{You're quite good at this Reyn!}

{Shut up or you're the one who'll talk to them.}

"Ah, in this case, there's the adventurer's guild and the merchant's guild, there's also the arena where nobles like to gamble on fights whether it's humans or monsters. I think you could still find some casino where rich peoples play either to pray to Kram True God of Games or to just make money."

"I see, thanks."

"There's also the exams of the Mage's Academy where everyone can watch it. This time, instead of a high rank noble to enjoy it, the Princess Eleanora will be here herself."

The one who talked this time was the High-Elf, the man and woman beside her nodded in agreement.

"Oh, thanks, I think I'm gonna pass by then."

"It's on the mainstreet of the upper-area, but good luck to succesfully look at the Princess before arriving at the academy, there's gonna be a lot of people there."

As the man ended, I stood up and walked to the door while puting my hood back on and left the inn.

"Well, it seems he got more information than us about him."

"If he wants to see the Princess that bad, then we can't help it. Besides, he might be a high rank noble in another country or even a Prince to have the money to be here."

"We'll see him later I guess."

============================================================

Walking roof to roof, I finally found what I suppose is the escort of the Princess while she seems to be in a beautiful white and blue coach with a little gold on the sides and on the door, I can't really see her though, I could only see her face through the coach's window.

{It really seems like Romeo and Juliet doesn't it ?}

{Basically, yeah.}

{You're agreeing !?}

{Why wouldn't I ? You're jumping roof to roof to find the Princess of a kingdom in her coach right now.}

{Wait, do you even know Romeo and Juliet ? How ?}

{I already told you that I was bored, so I eventually looked into some other worlds to find interesting stuff. That's how I found you though.}

{What do you mean by eventually ?!}

{Back to the topic. The Princess seems to have noticed you.}

I turn my head back to the direction of the coach to find the Princess's gaze on me.

{Ah- What should I do ?}

{Well, either you say 'I love you, please be with me forever !' or you leave your loved one behind to never see her again.}

{Oh, knock it off with that will you ?

So, where was the academy again ?}

{Not too far away, straight forward the coach is heading to.}

{Then, we're heading there. A mage's academy should be the perfect place to do some practice and see the power of starter mages.}

Without even caring about the gaze of the Princess anymore, I decide to teleport there quickly.

It would bring me problems if she were to see my face.

{Teleport.}

I warped on the roof of the academy according to Xaros's memory and find myself on a blue and white building, the exact same colors as the Princess coach and escort.
