Chapter 53

"HE SAID YEEEEEEEES!!!" Though her screaming was muffled by her pillow Ekko could still barely just make out what she had screamed and chuckled.

" Looks like I'm gonna have to meet up with Ruben sooner than expected." It's not that he didn't have any fashion sense but he felt like Ruben would know what better suited him.

Ekko would only find out later that it was Ruben himself that had given Rangiku the incentive to ask him.

{Later that night}

Ekko after relaxing on the porch for a few more hours left the inn to quickly check up on Granny Chio before coming back.

He then gave Cerbie a bubble bath and just relaxed for the rest of the night. Masane was locked up in her room again, Eris was culturing herself by browsing the Internet, and Rangiku, was in her room doing who knows what.

It was around 11 at night, and Ekko was just casually browsing the Internet and watching YouTube videos when out of nowhere a system task appeared.

Confused, Ekko checked the task but when he did he couldn't help but raise a brow at the options, this was probably one of the most unique Quests he had received.

Though he was also really curious and decided to pick option one. With that said Ekko stood up from the bed almost waking up Cerbie, but thankfully he didn't wake up.

Ekko put on some shoes and a waterproof jacket then teleported a kilometer away from the inn, the main focus of the task would be there.

//////////////////////////////

The forest was quiet and peaceful, most of the wildlife that was awake in the morning and afternoon was fast asleep while the nocturnal ones were out to find some prey.

{Zzzzzzz,}{ Booom}

Then out of nowhere, the peace was broken when a portal of sorts opened up and spat something out of it before disappearing completely.

" Damit All!!! Screw that old man of mine, and screw the council, now how the hell am I supposed to pay off that freaking debt and buy my Alcohol." Felling frustrated Cana grabbed a bottle of soju from who knows where and started drinking it like one would a glass of water.

This person was of course Cana, otherwise known as the Fairy witch, and who is also now in 53,770,330 dollars worth of debt.

Cana was a beautiful woman on par with the likes of Rangiku, Eris, and Masane. Cana is tall and a slim young woman with an ample bust and beautiful tan skin.

She has long, wavy dark brown hair with a pair of shoulder-length strands of hair framing her face, with the left one starting from a prominent, high fringe. Her figure is very voluptuous, with large breasts and curvy hips, which, over time the more you looked, the more defined it became. 

She was scantily dressed with her upper body only downing a Back bikini top and some tight form-fitting jeans that accentuated her curves even more.

Well, that was the impression Ekko got seeing her up close up.

Though he was impressed at how even though she was on her third bottle of alcohol she still looked sober, he wondered where all that alcohol went.

{Crack}

Cana continued to drink her worries away until the snapping of twigs alertrted her." Who's there, you better show yourself before I knock some sense into ya."

Cana said in a threatening tone though also inwardly shocked that someone could come so close to her without her sensing them.

Now that he was caught Ekko dident bother to hide and walked away from the tree he was hiding behind.

" Huh, it's just a human, Humph you should get out of here kid it's not safe in the woods at this time of night." Cana said continuing to grab a fourth bottle of alcohol, but this time it was a bottle of Sake.

"Well I would but currently I have to deal with someone intruding on my land, so you wanna tell me what you're doing here miss." Ekko countered as he leaned his shoulder against a tree.

Cana cursed when she heard that, she thought the council had teleported her back to her house, but it turns out they didn't.

But now that she looked around properly the trees were completely different from the ones that were growing near her home.

" Just a little lost Kid, I'll be leaving in just a second." Cana said expecting Ekko to leave but surprisingly he didn't.

" You were talking to yourself before, something about a debt, how much do you owe." Ekko suddenly asked Confusing Cana.

" Huh, that's none of your Business Kid, now run along before I punch ya. Fair warning I tend not to hold back on my opponents." Cana was thinking of just knocking the kid out so she could enjoy the rest of the night drinking away.

" Mhhh, I doubt that but you can try, so I'm guessing you're looking for a way to pay off that debt of yours. I own an inn not too far from here and was looking to hire a dorm mother if you will, interested.

" Pfttt, Hahaha funny joke kid, but im not being anyone's Baby sitter, So unless this job of yours Pays Over 50 million Dollars you can forget it."

Cana was Getting Ready to knock the kid out Charging up the magic she could access but did a complete Spit take when she heard the amount of money Ekko was offering.

" Mhh, well you would be working four to five days a week with weekends off, and I would pay you around...So if I Round that up then you would earn....around 500 million yen, plus maybe some bonuses.

{Pffffffffffft!!! Cough!!}

Cana choked and spat out her drink in shock." Im sorry kid I must be more buzzed than I thought, did you just say you would pay me 500 million yen a year just to what, manage an inn." Cana Stared at Ekko like he was crazy but Ekko was dead serious.

" Alright kid enough with the jokes, get out of here before I really get...WHAT THE ******" As Cana was giving Ekko One final Warning Ekko suddenly pulled out his phone and aprochroched her before showing her his bank details.

Cana was stunned on the spot, she didn't think she would ever see so many zeroes in her life." Who the hell are you kid." Now Cana was getting suspicious, was he perhaps a mage sent by her grandfather to help her, that would explain why she hadn't sensed him earlier.

" Im no one special, just a normal innkeeper looking for a competent Worker." Ekko replied but Cana dident Buy it for a second, though Ekko did pique her interest.

" Haha, I only Have one thing to ask you, kid...When do I start."

This was the perfect opportunity for her. Not only would she have a good souce of income, but If she was careful she could take on some missions from the magic market, though she would have to be extremely careful not to get caught.

" Right now if possible." Ekko replied, before taking his Jacket off and wrapping it around Cana's shoulders. Did He forget to mention it was still pouring it down?

" We should head back before you catch a cold."

" Hahaha, no need to worry about me kid a little bit of rain won't affect me." Then Cana did something completely unexpected, she snaked her arm around Ekko's neck and brought in him for a hug, though fortunately or unfortunately his face was being Smothered by Cana's ample chest.

It seems this witch didn't have a shy bone in her body as she gave his head a little noggin." Haha, a pleasure to be working for ya Little boss, the names Cana alberona, but you can just call me big sis if you want."

" Mhhh mhh Ummm." Ekkos response came out muffled and noticing Ekko's Predicament, Cana just laghed before finally letting Ekko go.

{*Gasp*}

Finally able to breathe, Ekko responded" Ekko...Ekko Makena Afia, it's nice to meet you too."

{ Option one has been Chosen and completed, Congratulations Host...}
