In Town (3)

We walked in and were greeted by a waiter, "It's a pleasure to serve you again, our dear Patreon," he took a glance at me and looked at me from head to toe.

But when he looked at Gesine, his eyes widened; it's like she saw an angel or even a god. Again, I might be over-exaggerating, but she did look like it.

Then the old man stopped the waiter, "She's not interested in working here." "Oh, my dearest apologies. I'm sorry for delaying your time. I'll lead you to your table this instance."

The waiter led us to a table with three seats, and it was a seat fit for a king, and that king happens to be a demon king.

"Order anything you would like, I'll cover it!" It must be nice being rich. Wait, if I'm the demon king, I'm also rich, right? I grabbed my pockets and only saw two silver coins, and I decided to shut up.

"I'd like to take the most expensive thing you have! And also the best and most delicious drinks!" Gesine didn't act like a nonchalant girl anymore; she was abusing the generosity of the old man.

I looked at him and only saw him smiling. "And I guess Cassius would like the same thing?" I'm a humble man though, "I don't take advantage of the generosity of the people"

"Give me 5 orders of the finest meat you have and a whole bottle of wine." I'm actually acting a bit more moderate than Gesine.

Gesine looked at me with a disappointed eyes, "wheres the generosity in that?"

While we waited for our food, Gesine asked the question that I didn't want to hear.

"So where's Aveleen?" She obviously knows that I lost her, but she wants me to admit it myself.

"Alright, I obviously lost Aveleen, but it wasn't my fault!"

"Then whose fault was it? The gods?"

"Yeah, okay, it was my fault. I've been avoiding boosting her pride, but this time I had to say it since it's only right."

"Alright, I'm sorry for losing her, okay? Happy?" Gesine had a faint smirk on her face, and she looked kinda cute. Oh god, what am I saying?

Anyways, after that talk, our food arrived, and it was as extravagant as the restaurant. Eight waiters delivered our food, and it was a lot. Can Gesine even finish all of these?

I looked at the old man, and he said, "Dig in! And consider this as payment." Damn, this man is one of a kind.

So, as a gentleman, I grabbed my food and ate. It wasn't an expensive restaurant for nothing; the meat was really good. I could even see Gesine tearing down while munching on her food. This was the best food I have ever tasted.

Sorry, Chief Gorgon from the Demon King Castle, but this food is way better.

I began to eat more and more then the old man suddenly asked a question, "the two of you will be leaving tomorrow right? Where will you go?"

"The holy empires capital", and as I said so Gesine also said the same thing, it's a nice coincidence though.

"So the two of you will be traveling together?", I looked at Gesine and she looked at me. It would be extremely beneficial if the two of us go together so might as well do it.

After a stomach-bursting dinner, we rode the carriage and had a great time looking around. Since it was nighttime, the old man offered us to sleep at his house.

It was an offer I couldn't refuse, so I might as well go with it. The old man's generosity was really something, and I knew he had pure intentions. I was glad.

We arrived at his house late at night. After that, I headed to the shower immediately after taking off my clothes.

I had a nice rinse before going to bed. It was quite an eventful day; I saw a white heaven, ate high-end foods, and took a shower, which was my favorite part.

I yawned at the comfortable bed as I was closing my eyes.

"Haa..." I heard a slight breath. I knew this was going to happen. I have watched a ton of anime, and this never gets old. I opened the blanket and saw Gesine sleeping.

Damn, her sleeping face looks cute. I mean, alright, that damned old man must have set me up. I got up from the bed and tried to open the door, but it was locked.

How? I then started to bang on the door, "Old man! I appreciate your generosity and kindness, but this is too much. I still thank you for this, though. Get me out of here!"

I knew the old man was outside listening to my voice, but the door was still locked. Thank you and damn you at the same time, old man!

Then a cushion hits my face. Seriously, I thought she was asleep. Oh yeah, I was screaming. But cheers to revenge. I took the cushion and was about to throw it back.

But Gesine was sitting on the bed, her hair glimmering in the moonlight. Okay, I'll forgive you this time.

"Shut up and let people sleep, you idiot," she threw a blanket and two pillows on the floor, "sleep there. I don't want you touching me in my sleep."

To hell with touching you, I won't do that! I set up my sleeping place and laid down. This isn't going to be a comfortable night.
