Aleshia unlocked the door by holding it and pouring a little bit of her mana inside the door handle. It was an advanced lock that detects her mana signature to open.
"Master, we'll wait here."
??
Aleshia closed the door after they all entered inside.
"You know the manager of the inn?"
Lawrend looked at Aleshia in surprise. The last time Olgar met the manager, he got kicked out.
"Yes. She will come soon."
Aleshia nodded her head.
"So you girls had been sleeping in here?"
Lawrend looked around the room. There were three queen-sized beds for each of them. It was laid out in a horizontal design.
"Yes, but we mostly sleep on one bed."
Aleshia nodded her head and explained to Lawrend.
"Yes! Master, I love sleeping with Big Sis Aleshia."
Elena interrupted them from the side.
"Ella too, Young Master."
Ella nodded her head shyly.
"So the three of you sleep together? Then, we can sleep on the other two?"
Lawrend asked them.
"Yes, Master. You can pick any bed."
Aleshia agreed with a smile on her face.
"Where do you want to sleep, Aezel?"
Lawrend turned to Aezel and asked.
"Fufufu. Do you still need to ask?"
Aezel laughed in response.
"No! You're not gonna sleep beside him!"
Aleshia shook her head in rejection. She didn't like the idea of this unknown demon woman who got herself pregnant to sleep beside Lawrend.
"Fufufu. You've already had your chance. Aren't you giving me mine?"
Aezel looked at Aleshia with clear eyes. She was adamant about sleeping beside Lawrend.
BANG!
"Big Sister! I heard you were holding the hand of that inse—"
A little girl entered the room. She had black hair with a twin tail hairstyle. She wore a small black suit that perfectly fitted her small body.
She looked at Lawrend in shock.
"Y-You insect! What are you doing here!?"
The little girl exclaimed in disgust.
"What?"
Lawrend's cheeks twitched seeing her response to him.
"Gyaahh! The Big Sister! The insect is looking at me lewdly!"
The little girl ran to Aleshia and embraced her.
"Nimnim, don't call my master an insect. Otherwise, I'll not be your Big Sister anymore!"
Aleshia rubbed the little girl's head and threatened her.
"N-No! Did that man brainwash you!?"
The little girl stretched her arms and looked at Aleshia in despair.
"He didn't. Master had been my master since the start."
Aleshia shook her head at her.
"But… But… Big Sister is beautiful! Why is he your master? Is it about money? I can pay him!"
The little girl looked at Aleshia in desperation. She glanced at Lawrend a couple of times through her words.
"Who are you?"
Lawrend squinted his eyes at her. She kept calling him insect again and again. His patience for her was slowly running out.
"Huh? The insect talked…"
The little girl turned to Lawrend and murmured.
"Nimela Grey! Are you gonna behave or not?"
Aleshia shouted towards the little girl in anger.
"H-HIIIIHH! Big Sister you're scary!"
The little girl, or rather, Nimela walked away from Aleshia in fear.
"If you don't behave I'll keep being scary."
Aleshia said to her with a frown.
"O-Okay…"
Nimela looked down, dispirited.
"It's okay. Just tell me first why you are calling my Master an insect? You even banned him from the inn."
Aleshia rubbed Nimela's head.
"Big Sister, he said that all of you were his maids."
Nimela pouted.
"Then you kicked him out?"
Aleshia asked.
"No. My staff did. I even gave her a raise for doing it."
Nimela shook her head and explained to her.
"Is that why my master is banned from your inn?"
Aleshia looked at her in disapproval.
"Y-Yes… He even came back with this Olgar guy, but I turned them away for you, Big Sister! I don't want someone to sully your name by calling you his maid."
Nimela replied to Aleshia.
"Is that so?"
Aleshia crouched down and looked at Nimela straight in the eyes.
"Yes… Is it bad?"
Nimela's eyes watered as she was about to cry.
"Don't cry. Don't cry. You did nothing wrong. You should have told me first before you did something like that."
Aleshia wiped Nimela's tears from her face. She looked like Nimela's genuine big sister.
"But… Big Sister is busy learning magic…"
Nimela replied with sobs.
"Look at what you did. You made my Master look bad. If I weren't treating you like my little sister then I would have never forgiven you."
Aleshia said to Nimela with sharp eyes.
"I'm sorry…"
Nimela whispered softly.
"What did you say?"
Aleshia patted her head.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, insect!"
Nimela apologized to Aleshia before doing the same to Lawrend.
"Insect? My master's name is Lawrend."
Aleshia's face darkened hearing Nimela calling her master 'insect'.
"I-I'm sorry, Mr. Lawrend!"
Nimela bowed to Lawrend sincerely.
"Mm. I forgive you. Anyways, why is a little kid like you managing an inn?"
Lawrend nodded his head at her. If he still didn't forgive her, it would lower his affection points with Aleshia. What Lawrend didn't know was that Aleshia was ready to side with him if he decided so.
"My father dotes on me a lot, and when I asked him for it, he gave it to me. Teehee~"
Nimela did the teehee pose as she faced Lawrend.
"Ahh… That makes sense."
Lawrend didn't really know what to say about this world. He encountered an arrogant young master that a respected instructor bootlicked. Then now, he encountered a little girl managing an inn because her father dotes on her.
"Mm."
Nimela nodded her head.
"Anyways Nimela, don't you have other things to say?"
Aleshia urged Nimela.
"...I-I'll waive all of the fees you incur in the inn!"
Nimela responded with great reluctance as she looked at Lawrend.
"Thank you."
Lawrend smiled at her in satisfaction. It was the best possible outcome for him. He didn't have to worry about the Blood Flower Assassin Organization with all of the security in here.
"Bleh~"
Nimela turned her head away and stuck out her tongue.
