Chapter 300 What is your name?
Chapter 300 What is your name?
When I came out from the back and came back to the table, I found that the girl was just sitting there without doing anything.
She looked at the dishes in front of her in a daze, as if she was thinking about something.
After sitting down, I asked, “Are you alright? Did something happen while I was gone?”
I could have not engaged, but it would have seemed too cruel to not ask since I was having a meal with her.
The girl jolted when she heard this and she quickly shook her head as she said, “No, nothing! Nothing’s wrong!”
But I could see that she was looking down when she said this.
In particular…she seemed to be looking at my crotch.
I couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile when I saw this since I remembered that feeling from earlier. As she had been wiping away the water, her hand had accidentally touched…that thing down there…
It was no doubt a traumatizing experience for her, but I didn’t know what to say…
So I tried changing the topic by asking, “Are you from around this area? Or did you travel to the capital city?”
The girl looked up when she heard this, but then she quickly looked down when she saw my face.
After a moment of silence, she said, “I’ve lived in this city my entire life, but I’ve always wanted to travel.”
“Oh?” I said before asking, “What kind of places do you want to go?”
The girl gave a sigh before saying, “Instead of being trapped like a bird in a cage, I just want to fly free. But I’ll never be able to do that in my life, so I try to sneak out as much as possible.”
It seemed like her answer didn’t have anything to do with this question, but in truth it told me more than enough.
As I had already expected, she was a young miss from some rich and powerful family. It wouldn’t have been surprising if it was revealed that she was from some noble family.
Though there was a part of me that thought that this was all a part of a plan to get closer to me…
But I immediately threw that thought out.
If it was, this plan was just too sloppy and many things could have gone wrong during this. At the same time, I had this magic cloak that prevented detection, so she shouldn’t have known it was me in the first place.
This was most likely all a coincidental meeting.
After a bit of silence, I said, “Freedom takes courage and without courage, one will never truly be free.”
The girl couldn’t help trembling again when she heard this.
Her mouth opened and closed without making any sound, but it was clear that she was repeating what I had just said before to herself.
Then all of a sudden, she gave a nod and said, “Those are very good words of advice.”
I just revealed a smile that had a hint of bitterness to them since these words weren’t actually mine and were from my former world. As for where they actually came from…it was an anime that I had watched before.
But now that the ice had been broken, the girl didn’t hold back as she said, “Then does this sir have any hobbies that you enjoy?”
I was caught off guard by how quickly she changed the topic, but I calmly said, “Eh, before that, I don’t think I even know your name yet, miss…” 𝓷𝑜𝑣𝔢𝒍𝐧𝑬xt.𝐜𝑂𝑚
I let my voice trail off, but she understood what I was asking for.
“Tiffany, my name is Tiffany.” The girl said with a smile on her face, though she did look back down right away after saying this.
Tiffany…this name was a name that had a deep impression on me because…it was the name of the princess of this kingdom.
However, I had already seen the princess before in the game and I knew exactly what? she looked like. So I was certain that she definitely wasn’t her.
After all, even if she changed her appearance, she couldn’t change her figure. That would be impossible to do, even in a world of magic.
This girl’s figure…was much less curvier than the princess, so I knew that it wasn’t her.
Her parents should have named her after the princess, which was why they shared the same name.
Since she had introduced herself, I responded with a smile, “My name is Zwein.”
She looked down a bit and muttered, “Sir Zwein.”
I didn’t say anything about that and just responded with, “You were asking about my hobbies? Well in my free time…”
With this, we started talking while enjoying our meal.
We had already been halfway through the meal, but since we had started talking, we? added a few more dishes since this place really had delicious food. I didn’t mind staying a bit longer if the dishes were all as good as the one that we had ordered before.
At the same time, talking to her was much better than the silence that we had been sitting in before.
So we enjoyed our meal just chatting away like this.
As the conversation progressed, Tiffany became less and less stiff and we were able to communicate much easier.
It could really be said that the waiter was the one that had broken the ice with that spilled glass of water.
When the meal was over, she took out a gold coin that she placed on the table.
I couldn’t help narrowing my eyes when I saw that gold coin since I recognized it…but I didn’t call it out in the end.
Once she had finished paying, I bid her farewell and walked off to walk for a bit on my own.
But as I walked off, I couldn’t help narrowing my eyes as I remembered the gold coin that she used.
That was because this gold coin was a special kind of gold coin.
It was a special coin that had been created by and for the royal family, which carried much more weight than normal gold coins.
