The Adventurer’s Academy Part 2

[Whoa,] Rin thought, as she and Eve arrived at the restaurant the fairy had picked out. [This is pretty fancy. Do I even have the money to buy anything here?]

Luxurious furniture, gold-colored decorative pieces, sleek black wooden tables, and bulky chandeliers were spread out all throughout the ”bar ” theyd arrived at. There was even slow, sensual music playing from speakers Rin couldn see.

Many of the people here were strangers but, among them, Rin could see a few familiar faces. Varyn, Lisa, Dylan, and even Sara were all there.

Elisa, however, was not, which made Rin feel slightly disappointed.

Even now, the thought of just seeing her was enough to make Rins heart race. After the talk the two of them had on that mountain, Rin wondered what was going to happen with the crush shed held for three years now. She wanted to hope for the best, but, before she could get her hopes too high up, she and that blonde noblewoman needed to talk.

Looking around, Rin glanced at her classmates. Varyn, the beastborn boy with a pair of wolf ears on his head, was dressed in a white t-shirt and some jeans, which made him look slightly out of place. On the opposite side of that spectrum, Dylan and Lisa looked like they were going to a ball, as the man was wearing a white suit and Lisa wore a bright green dress, with her hair tied up into a ponytail and a lot more make up on her than she normally had on.

The person who really made Rin pause was Sara, though.

[… Wow,] Rin thought, blinking twice as her eyes fell on her classmate.

She wore a white, flared skirt and a low-cut, sleeveless top of the same color, showing off her thin, toned arms. With her long, silky black hair falling over her shoulders and the bored, somewhat lonely look on her face, she looked like an unapproachable model.

When Rin first met this woman, she had been slightly scared of her. Now, however, that fear was giving way to something else. Curiosity.

Tearing her eyes off her, Rin leaned toward Eve, who was hovering in the air beside her.

”Uh… Am I gonna have to sell an organ just to buy some wine here? ” Rin asked Eve quietly as the two of them walked toward the counter at the back.

”Nah, ” Eve replied, laughing, hovering in the air. The fairy flew from one side of the room to another. ”This place isn actually as expensive as it looks. Though, your wallet is absolutely going to take a hit, but, its not that bad. ”

”Well, thats a relief… It looks great here, though. How did you find this place? ”

”I… ” Eve looked away, ”I was kinda planning on taking someone here. ”

”Planning? Did you change your mind? ”

”Yeah, ” Eve replied. ”Still, it made a hell of an impression on me. Come on, lets say hi to people. ”

”Sure. ”

The two of them made their way to where Lisa, Varyn, and Dylan were seated. Their classmates glanced up at them. Varyn appeared indifferent, but Lisa and Dylan both smiled politely.

”Hey! ” Lisa greeted them. ”Glad you could make it. ”

”Im literally the one who invited everyone, of course I was gonna be here, ” Eve replied, giggling. ”Did you guys order yet? ”

”The food doesn seem too bad, so we ordered some appetizers, ” Dylan stated. ”Will you be having dinner as well, or are you just looking for some alcohol? ”

”Yeah, Im not gonna eat anything, ” Rin said, nodding.

”I might… Do you recommend anything? ” Eve asked, looking at Lisa.

The healer grinned as she opened up the menu in front of her.

”Yeah, you could get… ”

As she began
