Alf and Leaf had ordered refills more than a dozen times, draining each glass without pause. Mario was on his fifth. Tenma, meanwhile, still hadn’t finished his fourth.
He was genuinely stunned by the two’s alcohol tolerance.
The clock hanging on the wall had long since ticked past 10 PM.
“Tomorrow’s your shopping day, right, Tenma? We’ll go to the Magician’s Guild in the afternoon—sound good, Mario? Leaf, what about you?”
“I think I’ll come along too. You’re planning to stop by Marney’s shop, right?”
“Yeah, we’ve gotta drop by. No telling what she’d say if we don’t. That alright with you, Tenma?”
“If possible, I’d like to stop by the Merchant Guild first to deposit some money. I also need to exchange currency—if that’s okay?”
As Alf confirmed the plans for tomorrow, Tenma quietly added his own request.
“Wait, really? Tenma-kun, you’ve got enough money to exchange?”
“Leaf—keep your voice down. Just between us, Tenma’s apparently holding some silver coins. You two better not say a word.”
“Oh, really? Sorry, Tenma-kun! I won’t tell anyone—I promise!”
“Of course, I won’t say anything either. Leaf was just being careless, that’s all.”
“Alright then. We’ll swing by the Merchant Guild first. Let’s meet here at 8 in the morning. We’ll grab breakfast together too.”
“Okaaay~”
“I’m staying with Alf, so I’ll be with him.”
“Understood.”
With that, everyone stood from the table. Mario and Leaf made their way toward the stairs. Alf, however, headed alone toward the counter.
“Come with me,” Alf said, glancing back at Tenma.
Tenma followed him to the counter, where a slightly chubby man sat reading something. His facial features bore a resemblance to Alf’s, though a bit rounder.
Alf approached him and spoke.
“Uncle, I need to settle our tab and introduce someone to you.”
“Huh? That’s rare—you introducing someone. Tch. Not a girl, huh? You’re not getting any younger, Alf. At least bring a fiancée around for once. So, who’s this?”
After throwing a jab at Alf, the man gave Tenma a glance—then looked again, more properly this time.
“I’m Tenma. Pleased to meet you.”
“Name’s Luis. I’m this rascal’s guardian. Good to meet ya.”
“Uncle, can you issue a card for this guy too?”
“Yeah, sure. Don’t lose it—and don’t go selling it off either.”
From beneath the counter, Luis pulled out a card and handed it to Tenma. The card read:
“Orochi’s Rest - Special Guest Pass”
No. 11
“So you’re Tenma, huh? Mind showing me your Guild Card for a sec?”
Tenma handed over his guild card. Luis checked its contents and jotted some notes down in his ledger.
“Alf, what time should I wake you guys up tomorrow?”
“Seven-thirty. That work for you, Tenma?”
“Yes, that’s fine.”
“Alright, then. Sleep well. And Alf, start waking yourself up already. You’ve got a junior now, remember?”
“He’s not my junior! …Well, night, Uncle.”
“Good night.”
“Good night.”
Tenma followed Alf up the stairs. At the second floor, they split off to their own rooms. Once inside, Tenma quickly changed into his sleepwear and collapsed onto the bed.
Whether it was the effect of his first-ever drink or the exhaustion from his first day in another world, Tenma drifted off almost immediately.
And so, Tenma’s long first day finally came to a close.
