Chapter 97 A Morning Outing
It was refreshing that we had gone out for once. The cool breeze and the fresh feeling made it worth coming out.
Olivia and I had decided to check what Avaris had in store for us to do. We hadn't explored the area enough to know what this place had to offer.
There weren't many people around as it was still early in the morning. I hated how some beast girls looked at me because of my mana. I'm surprised that I haven't been jumped on once because of it.
It was a shame that we had already eaten breakfast since most open stores were places to eat.
"Charlie, look!" Olivia shook my arm while pointing out something that had caught her interest.
Before I could say a word, Olivia then dragged me with her. There was a store that Olivia had found interest in.
The store that we went to was extremely well designed for what it sold. Many plushies were hung on the walls. Many kinds of plushies could be seen.
"Olivia, just choose one at most, please." I noticed that Olivia's value over money was becoming more distorted. Every outing that we had done was becoming expensive. While they weren't much to me, I'm afraid Olivia would become too spoiled because of it.
Olivia nodded. It was great that she didn't seem upset by my suggestion. We wandered around searching for which one Olivia had wanted.
The store was pretty huge. I was surprised to see how many dolls and plushies could be seen in the store. Olivia had already narrowed down on which plushie she had wanted.
"Charlie, which one should I choose? I can't decide." She had pointed toward three giant plushies. All three of them were pretty strangely adorable.
The first one was a giant pink pig with wings. It was pretty basic, where you could find it anywhere, like in my old world.
The second plushie was a friendly-looking raccoon monster. Its fur was brown, and its bushy tail was comfortable to feel. Coupled with it, a mischievous face had a captivating look to it.
For the third plushie, I would say this one was the one I liked the most. It was a white cat, and with how round it was, I would say it was much easier to cuddle it, not to mention the texture of it felt great.
"If you want my opinion, I think the cat is the one I would pick." That was my honest thought about it. Not only was it soft to touch but to me it also looked the most pleasing to look at. Olivia then looked at the cat more carefully and nodded.
"I will get the cat then." She smiled and held it. We went to the counter and paid the cashier for two gold coins, purchasing the cat plushies.
"Hey!" Just as we were about to head out, a voice called out to us. Coincidentally the plushie that we had gotten resemebled the caller.
The feline that had supposedly shown us around had yelled toward us, making the both of us stop. Felicia if I remembered correctly walked over, waving her hand toward us, giving us a warm and happy smile.
"Remember me~?" Felicia had asked if we remembered her. With how she talked, it was pretty hard to forget about it.
"Felicia, what are you doing here?" Olivia, who was slightly annoyed that our date was interrupted, asked.
Felicia, who sensed a bit of hostility from Olivia, was confused but shrugged it off, seeing it last for a few seconds.
"There were a few plushies that I was interest~ in." She had a bag of plushies in her hand, showing it to us.
"Did you girls have anything else planned~?" Felicia looked at me with a bit of interest.
"Yes." Olivia jumped right in and answered. Olivia seemed a bit snappy with her comment.
"Is that so~? To think that I'm unwanted." Felicia was acting sad, seeing how dismissive Olivia was.
"That's fine. I was about to leave ~ anyways. Here take this." She handed us a ticket. Looking at it, we didn't know what it was for.
"There is a concert today in the evening. If you're interested, you can go~." Felicia left immediately after saying her piece.
The short meeting was eventful. Felicia gave us tickets to a music concert. If we wanted to go, we would've to be there in seven hours.
"Olivia, let's check it out." It was a rare event that I hadn't ever experienced in my present and past lives. I had at least wanted to see what it was like inside a concert.
"Hmm!" She nodded and her sour mood toward Felicia had disappeared. Like me, she was also interested in the concert. I didn't even need to ask her to go.
There was still some time left before lunch, and we wanted to see what was in store next.
The places that we saw weren't so much different from the places that could be seen in Saint Maria's Academy.
In Avaris there are much more places to battle or use magic. We could check them out later but I wasn't in the mood to check them out right now.
Both Olivia and I were conversing as we walked the street. "Olivia." Interrupting her talk, I had gained her attention.
"There was a store that I found interesting. Why don't we check it out?" I had pointed the direction of where I had wanted to go.
I pointed out that Olivia's interest in the place had also been raised. I hadn't expected that there would be an arcade in a place like this.
This place was extremely popular with the younger audience. Many schoolmates and younger children with their parents could be seen here.
The place was cheap compared to the rest of the stores I have been at. It had taken a few silver coins for hours of play time.
Where should we go first, it has been a long while since I have been in one. While the games here are different from the one where had been, I was still excited by the games here.
