Bad Premonition

He bit the splinter off his finger and wiped the blood on his pants.

It was just a small splinter, nothing to worry about.

If Alice were here, she would have surely pampered him for a whole week.

Chuckling to himself, he decided to look for her.

'Well, it's nothing serious. Just a little blood, right? Let's find her.'

He checked the other cave, and Elfie got startled at his sudden intrusion.

She was in the process of changing her hunting dress, halfway through putting on a tunic when he barged in.

She froze mid-motion, her tunic just above her bare breasts, the rest of her body completely exposed.

"Oh, damn~ sorry for barging in. Just wondering if you've seen Alice-san?"

He smiled, leaning casually against the cave door frame, taking in her nearly naked form.

She had some breasts, alright.
