Mingling With Humans

Oo~okay.

I’m in a dumbfounded state staring into space… Not!

What I’m staring at is a status report about my newfound follower and supposedly property, Whitey.

[STATUS

Name: Whitey  (follower and property of the Lord of dragons and governor of wisdom and spirits)

Race: Izuna                             Gender: Female

Title: Pioneer of the Lord of dragons and governor of wisdom and spirits

Skill: Shadow                                    Magic: none

Blessings: Divine Protection of the Dragon Lord and governor of wisdom and spirits ]

Now this is interesting.

As I glance over her personal information I stop at the skill called [Shadow].

Turning to her with questions in mind I see her fidgeting shyly.

“What does this [Shadow] skill do? ”

“Um… I can become the shadow of a person or animal, it seems…”

I press my thumb under my chin.

“Hou~”

She can hide while in human territory. If my memory serves right, her skill is listed under the darkness attribute. If she could learn some offensive skills or magic she could become the perfect assassin for me.

Ugh!

No good!

I’m thinking about fighting again. Habits are scary.

While lamenting about, Whitey took the opportunity and climbed onto my head.  She puffed up her cheeks satisfied at the view before her.

Ah~ I got sidetracked again.

First of all; I.NEED.A.NAME.

Even my follower’s status report called me [Lord of dragons and governor of wisdom and spirits].

It’s long ─

Feels disrupting and I can’t introduce myself normally… Honestly, I felt that something lacked but I forgot about the basic of basics; the name.

Pondering while closing onto the village I turned to Whitey who nestled on my head.

“Do you have any suggestions, regarding a name?”

With her heightened respect,

“Ha! This one is unfit to name Master.”

Not a helpful fella…

That aside there was a name that came into mind, but I never researched its meaning. Would it be wrong of me to use it?

Thinking such, I unknowingly bumped into something.

It was the plate of a very bulky man. The guard of the village came into view.

I got a little confused and noticed Whitey around my neck. To be precise she pretended to be a scarf. Smart! A~nd cute!

I gave a shy smile to the guard.

With cold iron at my neck I was questioned by the two guards at the gate.

“Who are you?”

“Show me your ID.”

Wasn’t this supposed to be a village? Why guards? Aside from that, the gate is huge!

*Cough*

Let’s give them the lost puppy eyes!

“I’m sorry. I got robbed in the forest and my ID… ”

Okay~ Now comes the lamenting sideway glance.

A~nd.

Success!

The skinny guard placed his hands onto my shoulders. He was weirdly tall and muscled.

“Must have been terrible!”

The bulky man dragged him away.

“Sorry. He is an enthusiastic one. You can apply for a civilian ID at the city further north. Until then register at a Guild for identification purpose.”

“Thank you very much”

Meek voice and politeness. Fufu. I’m the finest actor here.

The skinny guard led me to the adventurer’s guild and we separated at the door. It was the biggest building in the village and seemed newly built.

Fo~ol-

They should learn to doubt people. Even though my clothes looked expensive… Haa---

Entering the building I found myself in a place similar to a bar.  They sold simple food and drink next to managing adventurers.

Calmly inspecting the surrounding people I headed toward the counter.

“Excuse me! I’d like to register.”

The staff welcoming me was a beautiful beast girl.

“Yes---“

She was startled by my different colored eyes and almost fell over.  However, despite that her recovery was quick and the smile returned to her face.

“For registration, please write your name and any other information you’d like to reveal.”

She had a really well proportioned body with small breasts.

I’m envious~

If I had small firm chest in my previous life, it could’ve saved me from many troubles.

“I see. Thank you.”

I took the paper and pen and started filling the places. Let’s see…

Name: Toue

A fine name if I have to say.

Race: -

Let’s leave it empty.

Age: I don’t know.

To be precise I don’t know which number to write, because I’m only a few weeks old.

Occupation: Various

I guess I’m good in anything.

I handed the paper over to the girl. While reading she played with her orange hair. Giving a wry smile she took the paper.

“Thank you very much. The card will be made in a few hours. Please wait patiently.”

I guess I will look around the stores.

Seeing my troubled look the girl spoke to me again.

“Excuse me Toue-sama.”

She looked at me straight with her golden eyes as her cat ears twitched.

“You can wait at the small restaurant near the gate or we can offer a simple meal for 5 copper coins.”

Hmm… I want to eat in a room among fluffy pillows.

“Thank you. I will take a look at the restaurant first.”

It was easy to find the restaurant. As the girl said it was the only place in this village that emitted the scent of food continuously. However small it was it had at two floors.

When I stepped inside my instincts urged me toward the food. As expected. I haven’t eaten anything normal recently…

The man at the counter had a wide grin when he noticed me. How to put it…

I guess he was a dwarf or something similar but at least three size bigger. Messy short hair and huge beard---

As one would normally see them in a middle aged village.

“Welcome! How about a meal? A room? or me?”

“!”

Disgusting! When a cute girl says it even a woman would say cute with a cheerful expression, but this-

A bear! This guy is a grizzly acting cutely!

“cough” I’d like a meal for two. Something with lots of meat.”

“Ay, ay sir!”

He turned around and shouted into a small room. That would be the kitchen?

Wait..

“If possible, Is this place an inn too?”

With a loud voice he proudly confirmed my guess. “Ay!”

“Then, I’d like a room too.”

“How many nights?”

I don’t want to stay longer so-

“Just one.”

He had an unsatisfied expression while handing over a key.

“Meal 3 silver. The room for a night is 1 gold coin.”

We exchanged items and soon after that I got my food too.

Hurrying into the room I placed the two plates onto the bed.

Smelling the delicious scent, Whitey jumped down from around my neck. She had a dizzy expression. It seems she fell asleep. How cute.

I sat onto the bed too and we shoveled the food into our mouths. Delicious! It was truly tasty.

Looking at it closely, the room only had a bed and a restroom. Luckily there was a window. Whitey fell asleep again while gazing out the window.

Umu. I understand. These days were a little tiring for me too.

Staring into space I slowly lost my vision and without noticing it seems I fell onto the bed.

Let’s sleep.

Now that I think about it, the old man’s memorise have many holes after falling asleep.

I want to punch him… “sob”

---Ah!

My ID…
