Rimuru pov
Well... I say find a capable teacher but I know where to find one. I had my eye on it for awhile and it just so happens to be quiet there right now. Or at least quite for a full house.
With that I arrive at the building in question:the Hostess of Fertility. An Inn and dining hall not far from the church.
The place was full. People were still drinking even if its early. Guess it's a perfect opportunity.
"Hey can I get a table please" I call out as I enter.
"Huh alright. Pick an open table" A burly woman in a blue blue maid uniform called out.
There were 3 tables open. One right by some drunkards. Definitely a no go. One right by the corner. Nice, but to far in the back. Besides, the woman in the cloak looks far to suspiscious. Finally there was a few right at the bar.
Alright, that's that I guess. I head to the base when I was called out.
"Hey kid, instead of some lonely night, how about you come with us for some fun" the drunkard called me out. Is he a lolicon?
If he ever gets near master I'm gonna... I can hear Ciel grumble in my mind. (Some things are best left out of the story. What Ciel said was r-18)
"Sure if you can beat the barmaid" I call back, shifting my gaze to the burly woman.
The drunkard paled "uh nope. Have a good night kid" and promptly left.
The barmaid in question knew this was gonna happen, shook her head and sighed.
"Well at least there's one troublemaker out tonight. Thanks kid" The Barmaid seemed to have wanted all of them out tonight. "Well at least it'll be somewhat quieter. Those morons have been trying to feel up my employees. Course, every time they tried we toss Em out but they keep showing up" she said. Hey, I would've taken the win at least.
"So kid, why're you here. By the way my name's Mia. Mia grand"
"Well for one, how bout a meal and some alchohal. I hear the fruit liquor tastes nice" I respond in kind.
"Heh. A meal is easy but little kids shouldn't drink" Mia had fired up the stove and prepared to cook a meal. "Anything in particular you wanna eat?" Mia asked
"Chefs choice" I respond.
Smiling Mia went back to the stove and took out some ingredients.
About right then, a blonde elf and a silver haired girl, both in green maid uniforms, came around. The blonde elf put a wooden tankers right next to me.
"It's not fruit liquor but fruit juice. They cost about the same" The elf promised.
"Ah thanks" I took the tankers and started to drink.
For some reason the silver haired girl was starting intently, watching me drain the tankard.
"How did you do that?" The silver haired gurl asked curiously. She was paying attention and didn't see the mask moved. To her it looked like the tankard slipped through the mask.
"A slit in the mouth portion of the mask. By the way you haven't told me you names"
"Ah right. My names Syr" the Silver haired girl had forgotten to introduced herself "and she's Ryu" She had pointed towards the blonde elf.
About then Mia had finished cooking and handed me 3 plates if food. "1300 Vallis" telling me the total.
After I paid up Mia focused on her two employees " Syr get back to work. Thu, I'm pretty sure she's gonna ask you something" Mia had shooed away Syr. She probably guessed why I'm here.
"Ah yes" She had started to go back to routine while Ryu sighed and sat down next to me.
As I start to eat the Elf Ryu had asked "So, what is it that you wanna ask me" She started straight to the point.
"Mmm. Less of a question more of a favor" I respond back. For whatever reason I thought I heard Mia's war's twitching.
"What kinda favor?" Ryu asked
"To help and give advice to a starter" I got straight to the point as well.
About then Mia came up. "Hoh then, can we ask something of you then? Who is your patron god or goddess" Mia asks.
"Hestia" No getting around it.
"Hmm she owes me a favor... Alright then. If Ryu agrees I want you to do something for us in return." For whatever reason Mia's eyes reminded me if a wolf staring down it's prey.
"I have no objections. Rimuru interests me as well" Ryu answered.
"In case your wondering, the whole town knows about you. Captain of the Hestia Familia. You match the description to a T" Mia had told me. Huh, guess rumors spread when your a mystery level 6. I thought that it would be smart to keep it there. I can't really hide as a starter so I went the other way.
"Well, come here tomorrow and Ryu'll give that starter some advice" Mia had promised.
With that I left.
