YLTESCIA: A Reincarnator's Tale in the Lands of Merusia (2)

Chapter 203: Smiles and Flowers (pt. I)

"Gather here! Gather here! We sell cheap salt!"

"Missus! Would you like to buy some pork?"

"Hold on, that's too expensive! Lower it!"

Noises, noises, and more noises. Such was the atmosphere in the market so early in the morning as the vendors and buyers bantered and bargained with one another. It was as lively and noisy as one can be.

Also in the market were a couple of familiar faces, walking ever so freely, many eyes looking at them from time to time. A silver haired elven beauty and a handsome young man, walking side by side, chatting as casually as one can be.

"Grey, is this enough?" ［Yuna］

"Yeah, it should be... Well, unless you want to eat more, we can always go back and buy more." ［Grey］

"Hey! I'm not that much of a glutton!" ［Yuna］

The two figures were, of course, Grey and Yuna who are buying a couple things for their daily necessities and ingredients and spices for their meals, sugar being one of their top priorities. It was something Yuna had reminded Grey every single time.

As one would expect from people hailed as heroes by the populace, many of the vendors tried to give them discounts, some even wanted to give them away for free. Of course, they refused their offers. Their sentiment was already more than enough.

And now, the two are currently arguing about something silly. Yuna is pouting her face cutely like a small animal and Grey only chuckled, looking at her warmly. After all, no matter what Guna does, it would always be adorable in his eyes. He's just a fool for her.

"Well, even if Yuna's a glutton. You'd still be the cutest in the world. Aren't I right, my dearest and cutest Yuna?" ［Grey］

"G-Grey! Stop saying those things! What's up with you? Why are you acting so bold all of the sudden?!" ［Yuna］

"Nothing, really. It's because my Yuna is the cutest." ［Grey］

"Grey!" ［Yuna］

The teasing continued and Yuna's face only became redder with time. Well, it wasn't only her who was getting embarrassed, Grey is also a little flustered saying all those limes himself. He's just better at hiding his emotions.

Of course, as they were in public, they weren't just flirting in the open. There were a couple of barriers preventing sounds from getting out. Not only does it prevent others from eavesdropping, it would also keep their embarrassing words all to themselves. It was killing two birds with one stone.

Grey only released the barrier when he was done teasing Yuna, feeling happy and satisfied. Meanwhile, Yuna was pouting and blushing at the same time. She swore in her heart she'll get her revenge on him one day.

"Grey... Just you watch... I'll get you back for this..." ［Yuna］

"Hahaha. I'm looking forward to it." ［Grey］

Yuna's words were in no way threatening at all. If anything, they only sounded like music in Grey's ears, truthfully looking forward to whatever his girlfriend could think of. A happy mood was about him.

The trip home continued, and seeing a few shops and stalls, they stopped from time to time to get some treats themselves with some snacks. It wouldn't be a shopping spree with Grey and Yuna without a little bit of snacking, after all.

"Mister Vendor, two cups of noodles please!" ［Yuna］

"Oh! Two cups for our heroes coming right up!"

There was only enthusiasm in the man's voice as he prepared a serving of noodles for Grey and Yuna. It wasn't just him. All the shop owners and vendors treated them the same, warm and welcoming smiles on their faces.
