The inn.
Outside the room on the second floor.
The three of them stood neatly.
"Mr. Yulian, please open the door."
Fern's expression was calm.
It seemed she had already guessed everything.
"Uh, that."
Yulian still wanted to make a struggle for Stark.
But seeing Fern's calm eyes like still water.
Yulian chickened out.
"Creak—"
The door opened.
Stark, who was lying on the bed, seemed to have just woken up.
Looking at the suddenly opened door, he couldn't help but pull up the blanket.
Wrapping himself tightly.
"Mr. Yulian, may I come in?"
After the door opened, Fern and Frieren were both facing away from the door.
Yulian was acting as the messenger.
"Did something happen, Mr. Yulian?"
Stark looked at Yulian, who was winking at him, in confusion.
He relaxed.
Slowly sat up on the bed.
Stark's confused appearance also determined that Mr. Yulian had done his best.
"Mr. Yulian?"
Fern asked.
"Uh, that!"
"Alright."
Yulian sighed helplessly.
Quietly slipped to Frieren's side.
To avoid being caught in the crossfire.
"Mr. Stark..." "It's evening now, isn't it? You slept until now?"
Fern's expression was calm, as if she was just stating a fact.
"I..."
Tiny beads of sweat appeared on Stark's forehead.
"Fern, didn't you go to take the First-Class Mage Exam?"
Stark lowered his head, seemingly trying to change the subject.
But it looked like it was too late.
"So you stayed up all night, right."
"Mm..."
Seeing Stark nod.
Fern continued to press.
"And?"
"And drank juice in the middle of the night..."
Stark lowered his head, not daring to look at Fern.
"Honestly, how can you be like this!"
Fern puffed out her cheeks.
Staring at Stark angrily.
And began lecturing him.
Yulian, meanwhile, was trembling next to Frieren.
When there was nothing to do a while ago, he didn't have it much worse than this.
Basically, every time Stark came over after a night out, he would bring Yulian some delicious food.
The two of them were good brothers!
That's why when Fern said, "Anyway, let's go find Stark first."
Yulian tried his best to stop her.
Even before and after opening the door, Yulian was frantically hinting at Stark.
Unfortunately...
Looking at Stark's bewildered appearance.
He was indeed stupid from staying up all night.
He didn't see Mr. Yulian's hints at all.
"How miserable..."
Frieren hid to the side, watching, her two pointed ears trembling.
Yulian, seeing that he was not caught in the crossfire, Began to study Frieren's small ears.
No matter how he looked, they were still so magical!
"Ah!"
Frieren was startled when Yulian touched her ear.
"What are you doing!"
Covering her own ears.
Frieren stared at Yulian angrily.
"I was wondering why elf ears are pointed?"
Yulian stroked his chin.
Looking thoughtful.
"Mr. Yulian..." "Then perhaps you should think about why people have mouths?"
Fern crossed her arms.
It was clear she was dissatisfied with Yulian interrupting her lecture.
"Hehe!"
Yulian obediently closed his mouth.
After smiling at Fern, he lowered his head again.
Hiding behind Frieren.
"Honestly."
Frieren felt helpless seeing Yulian pulling on her clothes and hiding.
Did this guy forget that he just bothered her?
After quite a while longer.
Fern finally finished lecturing Stark.
Saying that Stark was a naughty child, not even as good as Frieren, after that, The four of them started to tidy up and get ready to go shopping.
"Where should we go, Mistress Frieren?"
Fern walked in front.
Next to her was Frieren.
"I.."
I?
Frieren was a little nervous.
Fern Mom had just been angry.
She had to speak carefully.
"How about we go eat some dessert?"
Frieren said tentatively.
But after saying it, Frieren regretted it.
Fern didn't like the ugly desserts at the City of Magic dessert shops.
As expected, Fern didn't say anything else.
Instead, she turned her head to the side.
One kill!
Yulian mourned for Frieren for a moment.
The misfortune had spread to the lotus.
Yulian gently pushed Stark, who was following behind him feeling very insecure.
Walking with his head down, he encouraged him.
"Stark, go."
"I, me?"
"Mr. Yulian!"
Stark showed an incredulous expression.
He was the most miserable one right now!
Let him go!
"Otherwise, you're the one who played the most."
"You wouldn't know where the fun places are?"
Yulian looked at Stark with great expectation.
"Hurry, if Fern gets even angrier later and doesn't want to shop."
"Then none of us will have a good time."
Stark thought about it and realized it made sense.
He immediately mustered up the courage and walked forward.
"Uh, Fern..." Stark had just opened his mouth.
Seeing Fern staring at him.
He couldn't help but stutter when speaking.
"What?"
Fern's tone returned to gentle.
But Yulian firmly believed this was just an appearance!
There's a chance!
Stark's eyes lit up.
He continued.
"I know a very delicious restaurant, let's go eat together."
"A very delicious restaurant?"
Fern hesitated for a moment.
She gently nodded.
"Then please lead the way, Mr. Stark."
Fern paused slightly and followed behind Stark.
"Okay!"
Stark saw Fern return to being gentle.
He immediately excitedly shared some fresh news.
Things like helping an old lady push a cart, picking up a ball for a child, hearing about the horror legends of the City of Magic while eating, etc...
Making a happy glow appear in Fern's eyes.
Yulian couldn't help but be startled when he saw this scene.
Then he indignantly leaned close to Frieren's ear and whispered.
"I told you it was indeed just playful banter between a young couple!"
"We are so pitiful!"
"Actually, it's pretty good."
Eating the dog food.
Frieren showed a satisfied expression.
＜(ˊ w ˋ)＞
"At least Fern isn't angry anymore, right?"
For a moment, Yulian was silent.
It felt like it made a lot of sense.
This dog food was worth eating!
"It's here."
As night fell.
The moonlight poured down.
On the street lit by streetlights.
The group stopped in front of a restaurant called "Happiness Restaurant".
"Happiness Restaurant..." Frieren smiled slightly.
"Mistress Frieren knows this place too?"
Stark, who was having a pleasant conversation with Fern, was slightly startled.
He asked out of curiosity.
"Mm-hmm, I came here with Himmel and the others."
Frieren pursed her lips, smiling sweetly.
And pushed open the door.
The interior was just like the name, looking full of cozy furnishings.
After finding a seat and sitting down, the group ordered their food.
However, not long after.
New people, looking worried, entered this restaurant.
And they were familiar faces.
"Mistress Frieren..." Fern whispered in Frieren's ear.
"Isn't that Wirbel's team?"
