Chapter 52: Grand Hotel.

(Selenia’s POV)

Resoria: “Hello, I need one penthouse suite.” She said to the one manning the front desk.

Desk Clerk: “Of course, Princess Resoria. Management has specifically left your preferred suite vacant and clean since your last visit. No need to check in or out.” She said with a smile.

Resoria: “Great! I know the way, no need to guide me.” She said before leaving with me in tow.

As this was still a fantasy world, stairs were still a thing that I had to deal with. Well… actually, Resoria still carried me the entire time. So she was the one that had to deal with them. Teehee.

Selenia: “Do you come here a lot, Resoria?” I ask with a curious tone.

Once inside the suite, she carefully dumped me on the bed, and sat down next to me. The bed was so damn comfortable… How is it that the beds here are better than in our castle back in Sooven?… Not to mention, this suite was insanely luxurious and huge…

Resoria: “I’ve come here from time to time. Do you like the bed?” She asked.

Selenia: “It is very soft… In fact, it is the softest bed I’ve ever been on before.” I reply with a nod.

Resoria: “Did you notice anything weird about this place?” She asked with a cheeky tone.

Selenia: “Hmm… I’ve only seen women around, I guess?” I say with a thinking pose.

Resoria: “Good catch! Yeah. This city only allows females to enter it.” She replied.

Selenia: “How come?” I ask.

Resoria: “No one really knows. This city isn’t controlled by any kingdom at all, and no kingdom has ever been able to claim it. The rumor is that some Demon Lordess rules it.” She explained.

Selenia: “Really? That sounds pretty cool.” I reply.

There was a knock on the door, and Resoria went to open it. Cirilia was now here. Her clothes were pretty messed up, and she was covered in dirt and blood. Cirilia doesn’t seem injured, so she must have used a healing potion on herself.

Cirilia: “I’m going to go take a bath.” She said after entering the room.

Resoria: “It is in the room to the left. I will have someone bring some new clothes for you.” She replied.

Cirilia: “Thanks.” She said with a nod.

Not even going to inform us how the fight went? Well, she didn’t look sad or anything like that. So I can assume that she won. Before I could relax again, I heard another knock on the door. Resoria opened it once more, and a beautiful silver-haired lady was outside it. She also came into the room like it was something natural to do.

Woman: “It has been a while since you’ve last graced this place with your presence, Princess Resoria.” She said after giving Resoria a hug.

Resoria: “It has been a while. Anyway, this is Selenia. Selenia, this is Velmet, the ruler of this city.” She introduced the woman.

Selenia: “Ruler? So, is she actually a demon?” I ask with a curious tone.

Resoria: “Velmet actually is a demon.” She answered with a nonchalant tone.

Velmet: “Does that scare you, child?” She asked.

Selenia: “Nope, not at all. In fact, that is just interesting to me.” I reply.

Velmet: “…That’s surprising.” She said with a giggle.

Resoria: “Enough about that! Velmet, can’t you tell something different about me?” She asked with an excited tone.

Velmet stared Resoria up and down, scanning every part of her. Then, she looked to be very surprised. Velmet look at me and did the same thing, also giving off a surprised reaction.

Velmet: “You two are blessed people? And… is there another blessed person in the bath?” She asked with a curious tone.

Resoria: “Yes, yes. Do you know of Cirilia Sarns? She is in the bath, and is also blessed.” She answered.

You’re just going to admit that without Cirilia’s consent!?… Huh. She didn’t get killed on the spot? So I guess Marika, the Goddess that blessed us, found nothing wrong with Resoria revealing this? How odd…

Velmet: “Well… now that you’re blessed, I would say that you’re even more tasty looking, Resoria.” She said with a seductive tone and expression.

Resoria: “I might know that I am a lesbian now, but I’ve already promised myself to Selenia.” She denied.

Velmet: “…Are you a pervert?” She asked with a disgusted expression after glancing at me, who looks like a child.

Selenia: “She isn’t perverted. I have a mind of an adult, and she wants to wait until I have an adult body as well. Ah, if you’re curious, Cirilia is also my future wife as well.” I answer in Resoria’s defense.

At my words, the woman burst into laughter. Yeah… girls sure are cute when they laugh. I need to make Cirilia and Resoria laugh more often…

Velmet: “Then I guess that I have to relent on trying to catch you, Princess Resoria.” She said after she finished laughing.

Resoria: “Sorry. Anyway, can you give us a few sets of new clothes to wear? We will be staying here for a week or more.” She asked.

Velmet: “I can order them to bring you three some clothes, don’t worry. Anything else?” She asked.

Resoria: “As you now know, we’re blessed people. So we would like a huge meal to dine on.” She replied.

Velmet: “…Are you trying to make me run out of food supplies, Princess?” She asked with an annoyed tone.

Resoria: “Not really. But I am sure that the payment that I left you will be enough to cover for it.” She said with a shrug.

Velmet: “Cheeky girl… Who even spends a few Orichalcum coins on an inn? That payment will probably last at least a few years worth of stays.” She said with a sigh before leaving the room.

This is kinda… odd? Cirilia, Resoria, and I, to a certain extent, are pretty interesting people. Is that one of the reasons why we’re so attracted to each other? I didn’t even know that Resoria had such an interesting life to know a Demon…

Resoria: “Not being scared by her is the right choice.” She praised.

Selenia: “Why’s that?” I reply.

Resoria: “Because she very much likes people who aren’t afraid of her for no reason. Despite how kind and soft she looks, Velmet is very, very strong. In fact, us three all fighting her together wouldn’t be enough to take her down. A very good person to have on your side.” She explained.

Selenia: “I would say so, then.” I agree.

Resoria: “Why weren’t you scared of her, anyway? She is a Demon, you know? Most people, despite never meeting one, think that all Demons are evil.” She asked with a curious tone.

Selenia: “People tend to be afraid of things that they do not understand. I prefer to not be so single or shallow minded. Nothing is ever black and white. Racism is stupid in of itself.” I reply with a shrug.

Resoria: “I don’t know for sure, but I think that Cirilia is of the same mind. It is good to know that we’re all on the same level. Anyway, I have secured food for us! This place has the best damn food in the entire world, so please look forward to it. I know that I am excited for it after so long!” She said with a happy tone.

Is it really that good? And I thought that the best testing food I would ever try would be at Resoria’s castle. With how much she praised it, I am very much looking forward to eating this so called, best food in the entire world soon…
