Find the Missing Person on Foot

This greatsword was heavy . I wish I could toss it into the hollow bag, but I was hardly going to survive using it if I didn’t get used to the weight . It was while I was moving my shoulders and trying to get the blood flowing again, that I arrived at the Leaves in Sunlight inn . It was almost time for lunch .

“Now, let’s hope she’s back…”

She wasn’t anywhere near the front . Perhaps the dining hall? She had the most serious stance when it came to dining . She would probably not even wait for me .

I push the door open . The entrance hall of the Leaves in Sunlight inn was always calm, as if time was moving slower . Just like the first day, that was just the kind of place this was . I cross the room as I take this in, and arrive at the counter . Dorothea wasn’t here today, it was some male employee who I had never seen before . I asked for my key and promptly walked up the steps on the left side until I reached the third floor . My room was the first one on the left, 301 . The key goes in, the lock is removed, and the forest-like room enters my vision . The green interior was easy on the eyes, and very relaxing .

I drop my belongings onto the bed and change my clothes . The rest of the day would be spent lazily, so I could dress roughly .

“Ahh, I feel so much lighter…might as well go and eat then…”

I put the Schwarz Tempest in my bag . I wasn’t actually expecting it to fit in, so it was a little shocking when it slid in so smoothly . It really did give me the impression that its capacity had increased . I would like to one day meet those palace magician’s that Matsumoto talked about, and have them inspect it .

The waitress greeted me at the entrance of the dining hall . And then she led me to the same table that we sat at the last time . Daniela was not there .

“That’s strange…she’d never miss a meal…”

I decided to wait a while before ordering . The other customers ordered their food, ate and left . Eventually, it was only me and a few others that remained . And there was still no signs of Daniela’s arrival .

It was almost two hours of waiting now . This was not right .

“I’m sorry, but my partner didn’t come today, so I will be leaving . ”

I called the waitress and told her why I was leaving . She tilted her head to the side and looked towards the entrance .

“That is strange . Miss Daniela usually comes as soon as we are open…”

“Yes, perhaps something has happened to her . I have to go and take a look . We’ll be back for dinner . ”

“Be safe . This is a peaceful town, but you never know . ”

“I’m sorry for the trouble, and thank you . ”

I felt pretty bad, as we had already paid for our meals, and the ingredients had been prepared . But I wanted to eat with Daniela . There were times when I did eat alone, but I wanted to eat with her at this inn .

I returned to my room and removed my equipment from the bag again . I should train constantly, I think, as I strap the greatsword to my back . The unfamiliar weight was tiresome, and I had to be careful that I didn’t get caught on anything as I navigated my way out and down the steps .

As I was walking down the stairs, a certain thought came to me . ‘What if I carried this like a guitar case?’ I was currently carrying it in the generic diagonal way that characters carried their greatswords . After testing it out, it really was easier . But then I realized…I couldn’t pull the sword out like this . I was disappointed at the level of my own stupidity, but then another idea came to me . I could hang it over my shoulder like those tote bags I used to take on my night shift . It was also easier, but the sword extended both to the front and back, which was dangerous…

I went about testing different styles on the stairs, but the looks I was getting from other customers were not kind, and so I settled with the guitar case style until I reached the first floor .

There, I asked the receptionist if he could tell Daniela to wait in her room if she returned, and left the inn behind be . Man, that was embarrassing .

Enough of that . It was a short walk to the main street . Once I was there, I looked around in hopes of finding her . But of course…

“I don’t see anyone who looks like her…Presence Detection…”

It did not find her either . I tried to cover a wider area, but perhaps I was just not adept enough, because so many other presences came in like noise, and I could not find hers . It looked like I needed more training .

I didn’t think there was any point in running around randomly . After all, the only places I knew were the little shit’s store and Kasil’s . There was also that restaurant . If anyone would find their way there, it was Daniela . But I’d check there last…I didn’t like it, but I would have to check the little shit’s store first . What was his name again?

“Hello . I was wondering if you’ve seen my partner? She was here with me yesterday . ”

“What? Who do you think I am? Get out of here if you aren’t buying any shoes!”

Tsk . Useless little shit . Is he incapable of having a conversation?

“I can practically hear what you’re saying in your head!”

“Oh, don’t mind me . Good day . ”

“Grr…bastard…”

I bought my shoes, so I really had no more business here . I’m never coming back here again!

“Sorry, I was wondering if you saw my partner around here?”

“Well, this is a surprise . Oh, but it suits you well! Yes, they are fine, aren’t they? These greatswords! A man should carry a greatsword!”

“This is not the best time for that . We’ll lose track of time again!”

“Ah, yes, yes . I’m not exactly free either . So, the young lady? Haven’t seen her . Have you two been fighting?”

“No . But she hasn’t been back for lunch, and that has me a little worried . ”

“I see . I wish that I could help you, but I’ve only just started the heating the furnace . Sorry . ”

“No, no . I hope you make something really good . Excuse me . ”

“Aye!”

She hadn’t been there either . Well, my last hope was the Tree Stump Arbor .

Where did Daniela go?

“Hm? Oh, it’s you . Here to eat again?”

“Sorry, I’ve come looking for someone . ”

“Ah, so you are not a customer then . Leave . ”

“Right . Well, I just wanted to ask you if a woman with platinum blonde hair and a healthy appetite came today?”

“That she did . She ate everything that was served and left . ”

Daniela! You did come here!

“So, what time was it that she came!?”

“Around nine . She bombarded me with orders, scraped the plates clean and then left for the park over there . ”

“Thank you! I’ll go and look! I’ll be back!”

“It better be as a customer . I’ll have some good food prepared for you . ”

“It better be as a customer . I’ll have some good food prepared for you . ”

Damn, as smooth as ever . Even that smile at the end was bound to be effective .

But I needed to find Daniela . I hope it wasn’t something stupid, like she had eaten too much and was unable to move… Anyway, to the park .

There was a park just outside of the market area . A small patch of open land with flower beds… A small park . There were several benches in the corner, and I could see children gathering near one . But Daniela was nowhere in sight . I’ll try asking them…

“Hey, you kids . Have you seen a blonde lady around here?”

“Blonde lady? You mean this person?”

“Hm?”

The child who answered me pointed to the bench . My eyes followed the small finger to what was a bloated Daniela lying down .

“Ah, yes . That’s the one . ”

“It is! So you found her!”

“Yeah . Thanks . ”

I gave them all a pat on the head, and they laughed and ran away . Children were so honest and fun!

“This person on the other hand… Hey, Daniela . Get up . Get up . ”

“Uhh…no, I cannot eat anymore…”

“Uhh…no, I cannot eat anymore…”

“Sleep talk when you’re sleeping, you stupid bastard . ”

I try shaking her as stupid words pour out of her mouth until her eyes slowly open .

“Mmm…ahh…it is Asagi…”

“And you are Daniela . What are you doing here?”

“I ate too much and…rested…slept…it would seem . ”

“Seem? You were practically passed out!”

So it was overeating . That was embarrassing . But after a calm conversation, I learned that the reason lay with me . Well, I wouldn’t say it was all on me, but it didn’t change that I was in the wrong…

“I’m sorry . It wasn’t my intention to neglect you, Daniela, not at all . Um, it’s just that, the manly part of my soul can misbehave . ”

“Well, it is not as if I do not understand it… But I hope you are going to make up for it today?”

“Yeah, definitely . I don’t know if it’ll be much as reparation, but how about we get something to eat!”

It was the best offer I could think of for her . However, something most unimaginable came from her lips .

“No, no more for today…”

Would it rain rocks tomorrow? Voicing my disbelief like that earned me a smack on the head . Now, I was clearly not in the wrong this time . Unfortunately, there was no one around to support me .

That night, we had a light(Daniela not so much) dinner and stayed together in my room until morning . The details of the night will be omitted here, but I will say that Daniela’s mood was much improved on the following morning .
