Novel Bin Chapter 124 I AM GOING OUT!
"Well, anytime that you need me like this, just to listen, I can do that for you, just like you do for me," Listenia said, and I turned my head to give her a kiss.
The two of us fell back in the bed, but soon, Listenia pulled back.
"You should get going. I am sure that the countess is waiting on the step for you," Listenia said with a smile, and I grinned, knowing that would be true.
"She is cute like that. Maybe I will have to take her out for a meal. The clothes and haircut will have to wait," I said, but Listenia shook her head.
"Take her with you, and go get cleaned up before taking her out. Eliza is the countess, after all. If you are her partner, then you should try to look the part if the two of you are going out. People will respect her more if you look presentable. You normally look like this, so they will assume that you are putting in extra effort just for her," Listenia explained, and I nodded.
"Wise words, as usual. Thank you, Beautiful," I said and gave her another kiss before hopping out of bed.
I headed out of the shop and jogged back to the Manor. The sun had crept even farther, and now the golden light was painting the Manor and the little woman waiting on the steps for me.
"Galio!" Eliza called as she got up and ran over to me.
I scooped her up into my arms and gave her a long kiss that she eagerly returned.
"Are you all done for the day?!" Eliza asked after we broke the kiss, and I nodded.
"I thought that we should get me some new clothes and a quick haircut. Then I thought that we should go out and eat. Just the two of us dressed up nice," I suggested. "How does that sound?"
Eliza clasped her hands in front of her, and her eyes went huge as she nodded.
"Yes! I would really like that! You mean that everyone will get to see me with a new you?!" Eliza asked excitedly as I started to head back south, but then she stopped me. "Wait! Put me down! SENNA!"
I did as I was told and turned to find Senna running from the house over to us.
"Yes?!" Senna asked.
"Can you take Galio to see Cindy and Marny?" Eliza asked.
"Yes!" Senna said, putting her fist to her chest in a salute.
"Good! I am going to go get ready! I should be done by the time you get back!" Eliza said and then ran back to the Manor. "TRINA, CHILI! I AM GOING OUT; COME HELP ME GET READY!"
Both Senna and I winced at Eliza, but then we both looked at each other with grins.
"Do you think she is excited?" I asked with a grin.
"Do you actually think she will be ready when you get back? You should have given her a day\'s notice," Senna said, and I laughed.
"I am sure it is going to take a bit to get clothes and a haircut. Can we go get my hair done first?" I asked, and Senna nodded.
"Yes, Cindy already knows that you are coming. I was already there and at Marny\'s with Silvy and Karla," Senna said as we started to walk.
We turned east and headed into a part of the city that I hadn\'t been to before. There were a lot more houses in this section, but there were still shops sprinkled with the houses. It was a bit of a strange setup, but it was nice at the same time. Something about this city was starting to feel homey to me.
It was not like I was planning to stay here, but there was a feeling of friendliness that seemed to ooze from the city. According to most other women, the other islands weren\'t like this, and I wasn\'t sure how I was going to deal with that.
"How are the girls doing? Are they staying at the Barracks?" I asked, and Senna nodded.
"Yes, most of the women are staying there for now, but the place is cramped. They have the training areas to set up beds, but they are mostly just sleeping on the ground," Senna explained as we turned a corner.
"Hmm, I will have to do something about that, but they will have to stay like this for tonight. Tomorrow I will see what I can do about housing," I explained, but then switched gears. "What do you know about the Easterners? I have yet to see them, so I don\'t know what makes them different from normal humans."
"Easterner? It is their eyes. Their irises are solid black, and it gives them a strange look, but besides that, there is no difference," Senna explained, and I frowned.
"That is strange. I can hardly even imagine that. Maybe tomorrow I will go to the other side of the wall and have a talk with them," I said as we slowed down in front of a shop with scissors on the door.
[Cindy\'s Cuttings]
"That might be a good idea. I can come with you if you would like," Senna said as we walked up to the shop door, but then Senna put a hand up to stop me. "Before we go inside, Cindy is a bit-"
"Galio! I have heard so much about you! Come inside! I have a million and three questions that I would love to ask you about! Oh, you don\'t know how excited I was to hear that you would be coming to my shop today! Ugh! I am just over the moon!" A beautiful blonde skinny woman exclaimed in what seemed a single breath as the door opened.
"-Talkative," Senna finished, but the woman grabbed me by the hand and dragged me inside.
"I will return her to you after, but now it is my turn with the Hero of the city!" Cindy told Senna and then closed the door in her face.
