"Good morning," Yumi greeted him back.

"Why are you drinking first thing in the morning?" s.h.i.+ro asked him.

"Because I was bored and tired," Kias said as he took another sip from his mug.

"I should totally feed you more of that for being bored and tired," s.h.i.+ro said as she found a chair to sit on.

"That's alright s.h.i.+ro, I was just talking to the tavern owner that's all. You don't need to feed me any more of those. Trust me, you could save them for yourself and Yumi…" Kias said in cold sweat as he couldn't make eye contact with s.h.i.+ro.

"Uhuh, so what time should we get going?" s.h.i.+ro asked him.

"Let's make it the afternoon. I don't want to go on an empty stomach now since it is relatively close after all," Kias said as he finished the alcohol that was in his mug.

"Alright then, I and Yumi will go shop then. Since you already know why. And because my clothes don't fit her at all," s.h.i.+ro said as she left the tavern.

"Alright then," Kias said as he looked at the two leave.

"Say, why don't you let those two go to the academy as well? It would be a shame not to. If they go they can gain more friends and the sort," The tavern owner asked Kias.

"Eh… I and her parents have recommended it multiple times but, it never happened. She doesn't want to go for some reason. Maybe we'll just have to take it into our own consideration once we get back," Kias said as he asked for a refill.

"As for that other kid, we just met her in this town. So I decided to take her in as well," Kias said as he looked at the tavern owner.

"How nice of you. Say would you like some breakfast?" The tavern owner asked him.

"No thanks, I am not hungry after what I ate yesterday. I'd have to say my stomach is kind of ruined right now," Kias said as he quickly came up with an excuse to avoid the food.

"What did you eat yesterday?" The tavern owner asked him.

"s.h.i.+ro cooked," Kias said bluntly.

"Ah? Isn't that nice, you got a cute little girl to cute for you. What could go wrong?" The tavern owner asked him.

"She seems to have max pain resistance against spicy stuff," Kias replied to the tavern owner.

"And that means?" The tavern owner asked him.

"It was too spicy, I nearly died yesterday," Kias said he drank all the alcohol in the mug in one go.

"Well, it is my time to leave. I will go find those two just in case they get in any trouble," Kias said as he left the tavern.

"Oh alright! We will always be here if you ever want some food, drinks, or a place to stay! That is of course if you have money on you!" The tavern owner said as he watched Kias leave.
