Chapter 108
Alyssa and Lapia sat down with us and introduced themselves to the Goliath.
How about a fight tomorrow?" Thelea turned to Yolin.
The Oni shook her head, "We have a busy day tomorrow. Maybe on Firstday?"
"You do realize I’m going to beat the shit out of both of you, right?" I leaned back, hoping to dissuade them with those words. While I welcome conflict, I lean more towards fights to the death rather than unnecessary violence. With the two being lower level than me, the stakes were nonexistent.
"Even better," the Goliath nodded with a smile. "So, Firstday it is."
So a masochist, too? I stared at the woman for a second then turned to Lapia, "How was your day? Did you find any good pastries?"
"Pretty good, actually. We did," she nodded with a beautiful smile. "There’s a small cafe a couple blocks south from where we’re staying. They had biscuits and cake. They were delicious."
I served myself some alcohol from the bottle Pokora brought and took a sip. There was no sweetness and the taste was pronounced, leaving none of that burning sensation. It went down smoothly but lacked the creamy texture of high quality vodka. It was better than any previous by far but it still had ways to go in my opinion.
Alyssa let out a soft huff, "It was pretty mediocre, if I’m honest. The cake was a bit soggy and the biscuits had too much sugar."
I nodded in understanding. It’s important to have a passion and stick to it.
Pokora stood up again and gave Lapia a nod, "What are you having? I’m going to the counter."
