Reincarnated As An Ogre, I’m Going To Enjoy Life In This Other World! - Chapter 51
Since the demon incident, I had taken a break from quests for a while. I had just reached C-rank, and it felt like a good time to rest. After a week off, I visited the guild to check the quest board and found Tia standing at the entrance.
“Oh! Tia-san, hello, you’ve been discharged, right? That’s great!”
“K-Kingil-dono, hello…”
“Are you here to check for any quests as well, Tia-san?”
“Eh? Ah… no, that’s not it…”
Tia-san wasn’t her usual dignified self; she was fidgeting, repeatedly fixing her hair and glancing nervously at me. It felt kind of strange.
(Ugh~ Tia-chan! What are you doing!!)
(Damn it! This is so frustrating!)
(Coward.)
I heard a voice from behind and turned around, but there was no one there.
“Are you not entering the guild?”
“Ah… um… well…”
(Damn it! I can’t wait anymore!)
(Ah! Aisha-chan!)
“Yo! Isn’t that Kingil?”
I heard someone call out to me from behind, and when I turned around, it was Aisha.
“Oh! Tia’s here too!”
Aisha smoothly moved next to Tia.
(What are you doing!)
(Ugh, I can’t do this! I knew this was impossible for me…)
(I guess it can’t be helped!)
“Kingil, Tia said she wants to treat you to a meal as thanks for the other day. What do you think?”
(Hey! Aisha!)
“A thank you… that’s not necessary.”
I try to refuse, but Aisha cuts in quickly.
“That’s not good! Kingil! You’ve got to repay debts like this, it’s bad for both of us if you don’t, yeah! It’s really bad!”
“R-Really?”
“Yeah! Right, Tia!”
“Ah, yeah, that’s right…”
“See? Even Tia agrees with this.”
After being told that, I feel like it’d be wrong to refuse.
“Alright, then I’ll accept your offer.”
“Alright! It’s settled!”
Aisha clapped her hands and immediately ran off, dragging Tia with her.
“Let’s meet here in two days at noon!”
“Got it!”
(For some reason, Aisha had decided everything, but I wonder if Tia is okay with that?)
I thought about that as I walked into the guild.
*****
“Phew, I somehow managed to pull it off.”
“Aisha-chan, you were really pushy, but well done~”
“Good job!”
Haru and Ruin give a thumbs up, and Aisha returns it with one of her own.
“Ugh, two days from now… I need to prepare myself…”
Tia, on the other hand, was frantically holding her head, completely flustered.
“Hey, Tia, why are you bringing this up now?”
“Because you decided everything on your own!”
“If things had stayed that way, you wouldn’t have been able to invite him!”
Aisha and Tia begin to argue with each other.
“Alright, alright, stop fighting~ Tia-chan, you want to go on a date with Kingil-chan, right?”
“Ugh… th-that’s…”
“Ti~-a~cha~n~?”
Haru, with a somewhat irritated tone, closed in on Tia, and she finally gave in.
“Yes… I want to…”
“Then you have something to say to Aisha-chan, right?”
“Aisha… thank you…”
“You’re welcome.”
Aisha looked at Tia with an expression that said “Honestly…”
“Well then, we’ll have to prepare a lot of things~”
“Yeah.”
“Preparation?”
“Tia-chan, do you have clothes for something like this?”
“No… Not really…”
Tia always prioritized convenience when choosing clothes, so she didn’t have many fashionable ones.
“Did you plan on going in that plain everyday outfit?”
“Is that not okay…?”
“Of course, it’s not okay!!”
“Eek!?”
Tia’s eyes started to tear up from Haru’s forceful approach.
“This seems like something we need to do thoroughly.”
“Alright! Let’s go, Tia-chan! Ruin-chan, Aisha-chan, come along~!”
Haru and the others set out into the city to make Tia fashionable.
