Elise and Yua landed in a quiet alley to avoid people’s attention.

“Elise!!!” Renee immediately jumped up and hugged the female warrior. “I’ve missed you so much, but your master never allowed me to see you again!”

“Hey, I told you, I will only send my servants when there is something important.” Raymund’s voice came from Renee’s waist bag, which contained the obscenely shaped communication device.

“And you think this is important, sir?” Yua replied.

The god cleared his throat. “It is important to train the fighting ability of the two of you.”

“You hugged me too hard, Renee.” Elise was having a hard time breathing.

Renee let go of her embrace, wiped a tear from her eye, then looked at Elise’s outfit. The blonde woman’s brow furrowed when she found the bodysuit the female warrior was wearing. When she saw Yua’s skimpy and thinner clothes, Renee looked even more surprised.

“This is the outfit chosen by my master.” Yua gave her a friendly smile. “Ah, my name is Yua. I am also Sir Raymund’s servant. However, I am still new.”

“I’m Renee,” The blonde woman looked at Elise’s clothes again, then chuckled. “Even though I was wearing more proper clothes.”.

Elise shrugged. Renee wore a complete bronze armor now, not some kind of battle bikini like back then.

“It’s boring,” Raymund responded.

“Come on, Sir Raymund.” Renee sighed. “I don’t need to attract the attention of other adventurers to recruit me.”

“Renee is a really great fighter.” Lauren, the purple-haired woman who had been there the whole time, crouched down in front of Mona. The dog immediately ate the piece of bacon from the sorcerer’s hand. “She saved us in a difficult situation so many times. Her magic learning ability is also impressive. She can master various techniques quickly.”

“We can also do quests that we never imagined before,” Alain added. The black-haired man wore a moss green archer outfit and a satisfied smile. “We are lucky to meet you, Elise. Because of you, we were able to find Renee.”

Being praised like that, Elise couldn’t help but smile stiffly. She didn’t know how to respond.

Renee wiped another drop of clear liquid from her eye. “Well, how about we have lunch? I’ll treat you. I’m not broke anymore!”

***

The five people gathered in a restaurant full of all kinds of adventurers. It reminded Elise of the adventurer’s guild in the city where she met Renee for the first time.

“So, Miss Yua.” Alain leaned slightly towards the kunoichi. “Do you have a boyfriend?”

Lauren laughed. “The way you approach women always looks stupid, Alain!”

The archer snorted at his partner.

Yua flashed a smile. “I’m not in a relationship with anyone, and I’m not interested in doing it. The work I’m doing forces me to constantly move from place to place.”

“Oh, I see.” Alain scratched his hair, and Lauren laughed again.

“Huh?” Raymund was slightly taken aback by the kunoichi’s way of responding. “Why don’t you tease him, Yua?”

“I don’t need anything from this gentleman, sir.” Still smiling, Yua took a sip of her wine. “Or do you want me to do that?”

Raymund could only snort, unsure of how to respond. He knew the kunoichi was just making fun of him.

“It seems your master is jealous, Elise.” Renee chimed in with her mouth full of roast beef.

“Shut up, or I’ll take Elise again.”

A loud knocking sound echoed from the front of the restaurant. Almost all visitors turned to the front door, where a tall man with long hair stood. He tapped his spear again on the wooden floor.

“Attention, everyone!” The man, accompanied by several adventurers, exclaimed. “You guys will be participating in the Kozlov family’s tournament tomorrow, right!?”

The eyes of that man looked around at the adventurers in that restaurant. Almost everyone looked back at him but didn’t answer at all.

“You guys better just give up now.” The man flashed a sinister smile. “I, Leonov Dmitrievich, will defeat all of you! I am the greatest….”

The man stopped his speech and looked at one corner of the restaurant. Renee continued to enjoy her meal, ignoring the man.

“Hey, why aren’t you listening to me!?” Leonov snorted in annoyance. “How dare you disrespect me! Don’t you know how famous the Dmitrievich family is!? We are from a long line of great fighters!”

Renee paused, looked at that man, and then started cutting her roast beef again.

“Hey!!!” Leonov’s face turned red. He went to the table where Renee and her friends were sitting. “Don’t you have any respect for people who are talking, huh!?”

As soon as Leonov pounded the table, Renee completely stopped eating.

The blonde woman sighed. “You are the one who has no respect for the visitors who are eating. This is a restaurant, not an area for speeches.”

The veins on Leonov’s face tightened. He raised his spear, then hit the table so hard that it shattered.

Luckily, everyone sitting there had already picked up their food and drink. That made Leonov look even more annoyed.

“Why did you take your food! Should….” Leonov’s words were stopped by a thick pot that hit him hard on the head, forcing him to fall. Several waiters and cooks immediately came to him with cooking utensils.

“Hey, hey!” Leonov was helpless as the men beat him with the various cookware. “I am the great Leonov Dmitrievich!”

“He doesn’t know that the waiters and cooks in this restaurant are trained ex-criminals,” Lauren explained. “So, their attacks are very heavy.”

A maidservant bowed to Elise and her friends. “Excuse us, we will replace your meal. Please just follow me to sit at a new table.”

“No need, miss.” Renee wore a friendly smile. “Our food didn’t spill. And I’ve already finished eating.”

“Leave it alone, Elise. He broke the table first.” Yua said to Elise, who looked at Leonov. “Things will only get bigger if we try to intervene. Those guys look so pissed off.”

“Don’t worry, he won’t die,” Alain added. “They won’t dare to overdo it. Or they’ll be in jail again.”

Leonov’s friends tried to free that man. However, the servants and cooks did not easily let him go.
