"Wow, I can't believe there were no casualties" Said one of the adventurers as he raised his beer mug filled with beer
"It's all thanks to that little adventurer boy!" Said another adventurer as he chugged down his beer
"To the boy!" Shouted another adventurer as he Raised his beer mug
"TO THE BOY!!" Everyone simultaneously shouted as they raised their mug
"Thanks everyone" Said john as he walked in
Everyone looked surprised to see that john was up
"Boy, you've recovered? We thought you'd be out for at least a week after using all that Magic"
"Me too"
"It'd be a month for me"
"Haha, I got lucky I think." John replied
For a moment there was a pause, and then someone shouted out
"TO THE BOYS RECOVERY!"
"TO HIS RECOVERY!!" Everyone followed after
John who saw this, formed a small smile
"Feel free to enjoy this little party, we made thanks to how successful we were." Said one of the adventurers
"Right, the adventurers guild was the one that brought gallons of wine and drinks for us on top of all that reward, after all."
"*Chug* Argh... That hits the spot." Said Watlon as he chugged down his bear
John who noticed Watlon, walked over to the table he was at, Both Serena and Ariel followed behind.
They were in an openly lit restaurant. It was the only restaurant that was opened.
It had closed down when the beach was getting attacked, but thanks to the adventurer's guild, they reopened it to celebrate how successful adventurers with dealing with the situation.
On top of that, they promised all the adventurers a reward, as they ended things with minimum to no casualties and they were successful
As they sat down on the table, Watlon, suddenly noticed who it was
"Huh? Ah, John *Hic* How are you feeeeling?"
Watlon was definitely drunk, how many mugs did he chug down? John wondered
"I'm feeling good, thanks Watlon, more importantly, where's that knight guy who helped us at the end?" John asked
"He left with the girl while you were unconscious, she wanted to wait for you to wake up, but the duke was apparently busy." Said Ariel
"Exactly as the young girl saaid *hic*"
"Hmm... So what else happened while I was unconscious?"
"Um, excuse me, can I have 2 beer mugs full of beer, please?" Serena asked as she called out to the servant who seemed to be walking around giving beer
The servant who saw this, grabbed two mugs and handed them to Serena
The three of us watched as serena began to slowly sip from one of the mugs
"What?" Asked Serena who noticed
"Nothing, I just keep forgetting something, more importantly, what else happened?"
"Hmm... The royal knights came and then left when they made sure everything was under control. The duke sent a servant who told you to visit him whenever you had time, and... hm, I think that was it." Said Ariel
Serena kept taking sips as she listened in, while Watlon seemed to be drowsing off.
"Don't forget about all those greatful *sip* the families of the ones we saved were *sip* It was really nice to watch *sip*.
Serena was taking a lot of sips while talking
"That's good." Said john with a relieved smile
Serena who this let out a sigh
"You're too kind" She muttered
Serena then looked at Ariel, and Ariel nodded.
"Hmm, I'm going to go help out the servants with serving drinks, you two can enjoy your time." Said Ariel as she got up and went over to help the servants
"I don't think they need h-"
John was interrupted by Serena who placed her index finger over his mouth
"come." Said Serena as she pulled john out of the restaurant
"Eh? Wha-"
Without stopping her, confused, john let himself be pulled out
***
"Puhaha, we got out of there" Said Serena as she walked along the shoreline
John didn't know why, but the sound of waves and the brightly lit stars in the sky, made him feel relaxed. Like nothing bad had happened today, like for a moment, they were the only ones in the world
"Serena, are you drunk?" John asked as he grabbed on to her hand
She had a more relaxed feel to her, and her cheeks were bright red
"Drunk~? Me? No, no, john are you drunk~?" Serena asked as she poked john in the cheek
"I didn't drink anything."
"Then, you're drunk!" Said Serena with an excited and playful tone
"That doesn't make any sense... More importantly, let's go back, We can't keep Ariel waiting too long" Said John as he turned around
As he grabbed on to her hand and was about to pull her back, she put her arms around him from the back to stop him
"Serena..."
"No."
"But..."
"No, no, no, no!" Said Serena as she shook her head
John was trying to do anything he could to avoid a situation like this, one drunk girl and a boy, walking around the beach alone at night. There's no way it would end well
"Ariel this, Ariel that, Ariel already got to spend most of the day and take care of you after you fell asleep! We promised that it'd be my turn now, so no!" Said Serena
She sounded like a child who was about to lose her toy
John didn't know she had this side to her, but decided to go along with it for now
"Fine..."
"Yay!" Said Serena as she jumped on to his back
"C-Careful"
John nearly fell over, but managed to find his balance.
"John is a horse~!" Said Serena with the same playful attitude
"Argh... Yes... I'm a horse!"
He started to run around with Serena on his back
"Whee! Haha"
As the two continued to run, john suddenly tripped over a rock that was on the ground, and the two fell side by side.
[What the hell am I doing...?] John wondered as he stared at the night sky
When he turned to Serena, he noticed that her eyes were solely on him, he quickly turned back to the sky, to calm himself down
"hey john~ you know... when I saw you with ariel today, my chest hurt..."
[Jealous?]
"Hehe... This reminds me of that day in the snowy snow."
"You mean the blizzard? When we are at the carriage?" John asked with a reddened face
"Mhm! That! You know, I don't know why but I was really mad when you suddenly stopped!"
"W-Wait, Serena you don't mean..."
"I wonder why I feel this way... Do you know john?" Serena asked
John slowly turned his head to the side to see what sort of expression she was making.
When he did, serena suddenly covered his mouth with her hand and quickly moved in to give him a kiss.
Without moving or doing anything to stop her, john watched as she kissed the back of her hand which was covering john's mouth
John didn't know what to say, his heart was beating so fast it felt like it was going to jump out of his mouth, his head was slightly spinning
When he finally came back to it, he called out to serena who still had her arm covering his mouth
"Serena?" John asked as he moved her hand
She was asleep.
