Monica and I took a quick break after escaping from Mightyena.Fawny was tired after running with its peak speed.
Fawny is the name of the Sawsbuck that saved me and Monica"s tamed beast.
It appears that Pokemon is nothing here but a beast.
The term Pokemon was naturally unheard of here.
Monica also had no idea about Pokeb.a.l.l.s.
So when I heard she didn"t know what a PokeBall was I wondered how could she make Fawny disappear.
I"m afraid that if I asked her how she does that I"m afraid that she"ll suspect me of being someone from another world.
So I didn"t bother asking.
After all, if we went into some town I""m bound to know something.
Fawny was fully energized when I saw it again for some reason.
Since her mount was ready she then bid goodbye.
But I naturally asked her if I could follow her to the city.
Which she then agreed to.
I summoned the Mightyena who just recovered from its aching b.a.l.l.s and rode it.
It"s just like riding a motorbike, in fact, it"s size is just like a motorcycle so I had no problems.
...
The nearest city was the Stoneleaf City about 8 kilometers away from where I first came here.
Although 8 kilometers seemed far the time we took to reach there was fairly short.
Since there were no traffic and speed limits 8 kilometers seemed short especially since it was just a straight path.
I don"t know how fast we went but the speed we traveled at was no less than a speeding car.
The sun was just about to set when we arrived at the City.
And we almost got ourselves camping as the City was closing its walls but it seemed that Monica was quite famous here so we got no trouble entering.
Since we weren"t really acquainted(for now) we soon parted.
I can"t say that I"m not disappointed since we weren"t even friends yet but at least she told where I can find her.
Now, let"s face a more troubling matter now.
My lodging.
Although I was okay sleeping outside as much as possible I don"t want to.
So I"m in front of the inn that Monica recommended called, Mule"s Den.
Its name is not really rea.s.suring but since it was recommended by a beautiful girl like Monica it shouldn"t be that bad.
Taking a step in I finally get to see how was it inside.
A sweet fragrance of food awakened my hungry stomach making it grumble.
A middle-aged man who seemed to be the owner of this inn waved at me.
"I could hear your stomach grumbling from miles away!" he laughed.
"hehe", I chuckled.
"Marielle, get me a serving of soup and meat!" Shouting in the kitchen then inviting me to sit at one of the stools in front of him.
Sitting down as I waited I took a good look of the place.
In terms of atmosphere then this place definitely isn"t lacking any of it.
Drunk men singing together and bards singing legends.
I must say this is too cliche to see since I"ve seen a lot of this in games.
The next thing that should happen next is a beautiful girl sitting beside me.

But I"m no-.
"Hey, would you mind if I seat here." A girl clad with robe said as she smiled. Although she was beautiful she"s not as good looking as Monica. This girl did beat Monica in one point as her chest is a little bit bigger than Monica. Even if this girl was wearing a robe with my discerning eyes nothing could be hidden!
How could I miss the chance to sit right next to a G.o.ddess?
"Sure, since there"s no one sitting on it," I said.
"Hehe", The middle-aged man chuckled as he placed down the plate on his hands.
"Thank you," I said in grat.i.tude as I looked at the food he brought.
A steaming hot soup and a piece of meat.
It looked delicious enough but there was no rice or bread.
Well, who am I to complain.
Slicing the mean I realized that it was tender and juicy nothing you would expect from its rough look. Taking a bite of the meat a burst of flavors exploded in my mouth making me want more.
Okay, maybe it"s just delicious no need for descriptions simply delicious.
"Boss, what kind of meat is this?" I asked in wonder as the meat definitely didn"t taste like pork or beef or even any kind of meat I"ve eaten before. I can"t say that I"ve eaten all kinds of meat before but as a foodie, I"ve tasted numerous meals before.
"Huh? You dunno? It"s our inn"s signature dish, Honey Glazed Bulbasaur Tenderloin!" The middle-aged man puffed his chest as he said proudly.
Honey....Glazed....BULBASAUR?!?!
"What I ate was a Bulbasaur?!"
"If it wasn"t then what would it be?"
I really ate one! A freaking pokemon. I just ate a Pokemon!
Gulp*
Is it really okay to eat a Pokemon?
But it would be a waste for me not to eat it.
Judging from this world"s common sense it was perfectly normal to Pokemon as they are no different from animals just a bit more powerful.
c.r.a.p, the Boss is giving me weird eyes!
"Is the taste not up to your liking?!" the Boss said angrily.
F*ck, this guy is scaring me!
Afraid that I would offend the Boss I took up a sip from the soup and ate the Bulbasaur"s meat in delish.
Even the soup was extremely delicious!
"N-no, It"s so delicious that it almost made me swallow my tongue!" I tried appeasing the Boss.
Hearing my words the angry look on the Boss"s face immediately vanished and was replaced by a smile.
"Hehehe, Is that so? My wife made that! Aren"t I lucky?" The Boss boasted.
"yeah yeah! Boss is so lucky! It"s also Boss"s wife luck to marry a handsome guy like boss!"
"Ho? Right!?" Boss then smiled as he combed his rough beard.
I"m definitely not trying to lick his boots or anything.
I"m just afraid I"ll be the meat on someone"s dinner later on if I p.i.s.s this guy off.
"Say you"re not from here right?" Boss asked.
Eh?! Could it be that he found out?!
"Judging from your expression it seems that I was right!"
No! He couldn"t have found out right?
"What do you say working here as a clerk?"
Hmm? Oh! When he said that "I"m not from here" he meant that I was someone not from this city!
I thought he found out that I"m not from this world.
Well, now that I think about it even if someone finds out I think nothing bad will happen!
"You seem witty enough so I"m just asking since we"re kinda short in hands today since the previous clerk didn"t show up for weeks."
Isn"t this a G.o.d-sent opportunity!
A job at an inn which provides good food!
I might even found the one that I"m looking for!
Wait, I think I"ve already found her it"s just up to me.
"If it"s okay with Boss then I"ll be glad to work here!"
"Good! Young men should be swift and decisive!" Boss said as he winked at me while sending obvious glances which probably meant, "It"s now or never!
Well, I"m not thinking of chasing after the girl beside me. So I just smiled and shooked my head.
Seeming to have understood, Boss changed the topic.
"Since you"re not from here. Do you have any place to stay in yet?"
"Hehehe, Boss. The truth is-"
Before I even managed to finish the Boss already cut me off, "Alright, say no more. You can stay in the free room later."
I stood up from my chair, clasped my hands and bowed, "Thank you, Boss!"
"Hahaha, I"ll have my daughter show it to you later!" Boss then went to serve to another customer.
Just as Boss left I felt my phone vibrating through my pants.
I took a quick glimpse and saw a two notification.
