Umm Master, Im sorry.
When we were about to leave the Labyrinth and go back home after obtaining more Whole Fishes, Roxanne apologized to me all of a sudden. Why did she do that? What is this going to be about?
What is it, Roxanne? What happened?
Its nothing major, its just that its just that I can smell an acquaintance of mine. It looks like theyre coming this way from the entrance.
An acquaintance of yours, you say?
Being able to detect the people that she knows with just her sense of smell alone is such a convenient ability she has.
Yes, but I think it might be better for us if we leave this place post-haste, because if I was able to smell them, then that means they must also be in close enough proximity to have smelled me as well. If we run away now only to bump into them later, then there is a possibility that they might get suspicious of me.
I tried to provide some emotional support to Roxanne by offering some warm words and gently putting my hand around her shoulder. She is my slave after all, and as a good master I dont want her to think that I dont care about her personal problems and struggles and that I would leave her alone with them.
I put the Rod of Offerings back in my Item Box and wait for this acquaintance of Roxannes to appear. And after a short wait.
O~~hohohoho~~!!! (TL Note: insert Ojou-sama laughter) Well, well, well, if it isnt Roxanne?!
Roxannes acquaintance did not come here alone. She has arrived together with five other people, making a full Party of six: four Beast Warriors, one Adventurer and one Monk. Also, it looks like their levels are all pretty high. Let me see the Beast Warriors are all Lv.99?!
Its been a while.
Yes, it has been quite a long time since weve last seen each other indeed, and even so, you still seem to be the same stupid, incompetent hussy like you were back in the day.
The one having conversation with Roxanne is a female Beast Warrior Lv.29, and my Identifyshowed me that she was a female whos nineteen years old, which makes her three years older than Roxanne.
Is this woman the acquaintance that Roxanne was speaking of?
As for her appearance, I dont really have anything to say or any comments to give, aside from maybe one: that she cannot even begin to start holding a candle to Roxanne, because for me, Roxanne is always going to be the ideal picture of female beauty.
And I see that you havent changed a bit either.
Oh, quiet, you! Dont you dare comparing me from right now to the me from the past! Ill have you know that for the past six months I have been doing nothing but gaining strength!
Is that so? Well, if you say so
This woman seems to be of a higher social status then Roxanne currently is, because whenever Roxanne was talking to her, it looked to me like she was lowering herself ever-so slightly. Whoever that woman is, she also seems to have her own family name, and from what I have been told, possessing not only a given name but also a surname, or family name, as it is sometimes called here, is supposed to be a very rare thing in this world.
Not only that, but she also seems to have some hellishly inflated ego, because the way she looks around every single one of us is filled with the sense of boundless pride, almost as if she was deeming us all unfit to even be in her presence or breathe the same air as she does.
She has pretty long hair, and its ends have been styled into drills. They are also shiny, like that of a high quality porcelain dolls, which somehow remind me of the Doolittle Raid, the first-ever air-raid carried by the USA against Japan on the 18thof April, 1942, but thats a digression thats best to not delve into too deep.(TN: Supposedly romaji forshiny like a Dolllooks like romaji forDoolittle, but personally that seems like a too big of a stretch for me.)
Another piece of evidence that she must be of high social position is the fact that she has such a long hair. Like it was told to me before, women of low social status do not have long hair, because they are keeping them short due to hygiene reasons. After all, in this world, only women belonging to nobility can afford to take proper care of their own hair, which in consequence allows them to keep it longer. Without proper ways of protecting their hair, the longer ones would sooner or later become damaged by the sun, becoming hard and stiff instead of soft and fluffy.
If she has hers so long, then that means that she has the money to take care of them properly and that shes not afraid to spend that money on hair care. If there was ever a way of showing and proclaiming Look at me! Look at how wealthy I am!, then shes utilizing it right now.
