23 (23) The Princess

-Axie!

Upon arriving at the inn, Winnie comes running and hugs me.

I think I stayed out too long without warning, it was almost dark.

-Sorry Kid, I had some problems.

-Did you get hurt? Are you okay?

-Winnie, I think you should let Axidriel rest. - Says the cook at the inn.

Come to think of it, she probably owns this place.

-I'm sorry, I should have warned you that it would take a while, did she cause problems?

-No, she was a little angel all day.

-Yes, I behaved!

-Ok ok kid, good job.

-Ara, so kind, worrying about your sister... maybe you should rethink my proposal…

-With all due respect, ma'am, shut up.

I went back to my room after leaving to check on Shi and take a shower, a decent one. At the time Winnie was sleeping, and I was "meditating". With a cigarette in my mouth.

Meditating is a strong word, what I was really doing was closing my eyes and focusing on the black energy.I did it to check that demon I injected mist.
