Volume 9 Chapter 2 Nina And The Dinner Date
"Hmm, you've already finished the quest? You're still so fast, Rain-san."
Nina smiled.
"Yes. So, I'm thinking of taking on an additional quest."
"Additional?"
"I used up a lot of Strengthening points in the last battle. I need to replenish them..."
After the fight with the 7 Dragon Knights, I learned the 3rd spell of enchantment magic――
Its power is immense, but it consumes way more Strengthening points than the 2nd spell.
If I'm not careful, I could use up all the points that take weeks to collect in just one attack.
It seems like it's best to save up as many Strengthening points as possible, just in case.
In the end, I took on three more subjugation quests.
"Can I still go? For the fourth time――"
"How about calling it a day today? It's already evening."
"...Yeah, you're right."
I was so focused on defeating the enemy that I didn't notice it was getting dark around us.
"Okay then, let's call it a day for today."
"Good job."
I smiled and bowed.
"Is your work finishing up soon, Nina?"
"Yes, it's already quitting time."
"Well then, how about the two of you go out for a dinner?"
Guild Master Elsie-san appeared from the back.
Come to think of it, another receptionist once said, "Why don't you invite Nina out for a dinner?"
"So, do you want to go to dinner with me? What do you say?"
"Oh, yes, please!"
Nina stood up eagerly.
"Hehe, I've got your back, Nina. You're a bit shy, aren't you?"
Elsie-san smiled kindly.
"But you always work so well, you know. This is my way of saying thank you."
"T-thank you very much..."
Got your back and stuff, I wonder what they're talking about...
"Hehehe, it's been a while since I had a dinner with Rain-san."
Nina looked very happy.
"Because you always take care of me. I'll treat you, so order whatever you like."
"Oh no, let's split the bill..."
"I have a lot of rewards today, so let me treat you. Besides, it's a way of thanking Nina for always choosing quests for me."
Actually, the quests she brings are high-paying, in convenient locations, and the monsters are relatively easy to find and defeat.
She must be intentionally selecting them for me.
"That's because it's my job."
"I appreciate it. So, let me treat you."
I repeated.
"Understood. Well, thank you."
Nina bowed deeply.
After that, we looked at each other and smiled.
