Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

The next morning, when I woke up and came out of the room, I found that the two girls were already awake.

I had slept a bit longer than usual since I had already achieved my goal of finding a merchant.

Not to mention, I did have a bit of a headache from the drinking last night.

I thought that I hadn't been affected by the alcohol, but it didn't seem to be the case.

Still, there was no regret since it was delicious alcohol that I drank.

I even wanted to try it again tonight…but that all depended on what would happen today. After all, we would be going to the store to negotiate prices today and if we couldn't reach a price that we agreed on, we would have to extend negotiations and that would take more time.

So I hoped that everything would go well.

It also helped that we now knew the owner of the store and had a good relationship with her after saving her last night.

It seemed very likely that things would go well today.

I wasn't surprised to find the two girls awake, but I was surprised to find that Haley was gone.

She was the one who was the most drunk out of all of us last night, so I had assumed that she would have a massive hangover this morning. But that didn't seem to be the case as she had already disappeared from the inn.

When I came over to where the two girls were waiting, I asked Nicole who shared the room with Haley, "What happened? Why is she gone already?"

Nicole revealed a smile and shook her head before saying, "There really is no stopping that woman. When she puts her mind to something, she really goes all out to do it…"

I raised a brow in confusion, but I waited for Nicole to explain.

Nicole started the story from the very beginning.

"When she woke up, she was confused as you had expected. She had looked around herself in a frenzy and there were even darting looks at the window, as if she had planned on jumping out. But all that noise woke me up and I was able to explain what had happened last night."

She gave a sigh as she said, "Though, the thought that we had spent the night together when she saw me wasn't appreciated…I'm not into that kind of stuff."

Jessica and I couldn't help revealing a smile when we heard this.

But then the way that Nicole glared at us…it was clear that there was some kind of hidden grievance in this complaint.

If I had to guess, it was most likely related to her parents.

Heh, heh.

After another sigh, she continued the story, "I tried to get her to stay, but she wouldn't listen at all. She just said that she needed to get to her store to open for the day and then she stumbled out while holding her head. It was obvious that she was hungover and had a large headache, but she wouldn't listen at all."

At this, Nicole raised her hands and spread them in a helpless manner.

I gave a nod at the end of this story before saying, "That's fine, we'll still see her later." Then I added, "But she did remember that we were the ones that saved her, right?"

Nicole immediately caught on to what I was implying and she gave a nod with a smile in response, "I made sure that she knew that we were the ones that had saved her. Not to mention, it seemed like she had remembered quite a bit about what had happened last night even though she was hungover."

I gave a nod with a satisfied smile after hearing this.

As long as she knew that we were the ones that had saved her…then it would help us in the negotiations later.

Since everything was turning out to benefit us, there was no need to rush this matter.

So I took a look out the window in this hall at the sun above us.

The sun was in the sky, but it wasn't high enough yet for it to be noon. It wasn't low enough for it to be considered early morning though.

I had slept quite a bit.

When we went down to the main lobby of the inn, I saw on the clock on the wall that it was around 10 in the morning.

That was still early enough for breakfast, so we found a random place to grab some breakfast.

After that, we walked around the city and bought a few souvenirs before also getting an early lunch.

We did everything but go to Haley's store.

That was because we knew that it was very unlikely that Haley would be in any condition to greet customers right now. She might get better in the afternoon, so it was better to wait until then to head to the store.

After all, it was her that we had business with and not the normal clerks in the store.

After lunch, we walked around a bit more until it was around 2 in the afternoon. Only then did we head over to Haley's store.

It had few customers just like yesterday, so we walked in with no problem.

When we saw who the clerk that was taking care of us was, we couldn't help revealing a smile.

At the same time, the smile on the lip of the clerk twitched when he saw me…It was clear that he recognized me and remembered me from yesterday.

But he was a professional and he greeted us with a happy smile.

However, we weren't here to see him after all.

So I asked the clerk, "Can I talk to your boss?"

The clerk was surprised to hear this, but he still went to get Haley.

When she came out, she was surprised to see us and she asked, "What are you doing here?"

I didn't take offense to this and simply said, "I'm here to discuss some business."
