With both of us leaving, it was good that Rebecca didn\'t choose to follow us. We may earn the wraith of Avaris students, but everything will be alright if they don\'t bother us.

The streets of Avaris Royal Academy were pretty different from Saint Maria\'s. Unlike our school, the place wasn\'t that crowded. With how populated it is for the beastmen, no matter where you went, you would always see someone around the streets.

Olivia was close to my side, grabbing my hand and ensuring we wouldn\'t get separated. I don\'t know if it was intentional, but for some reason, I felt I was being touched purposely by the people in our surroundings.

I don\'t know if I was paranoid about being touched by many people, but this feeling was unpleasant.

Many stores were passed as we walked by. From restaurants to entertainment, there were things that both Olivia and I wanted to check out after our shopping trip.

Walking through the crowd of people, we found a store that had reached our requirements. Having to walk in the store, it was nice that we did so. There weren\'t as many people inside here as there were outside.

"Olivia, if anything catches your interest, do tell me." Fashion wasn\'t something that I had any expertise in. Olivia was someone who knew much more than me, so her opinion was much better than mine.

"Don\'t worry, Charlie, if there is something good, we will buy it." Olivia sounded confident. It was nice seeing this side of Olivia.

There was a lot of tableware, from plates to tables. Many of them could be seen here. Unlike just plain metal, the materials used here are made from precious gems.

Now that I think about is it safe to even use these materials? I don\'t want to suddenly have food poisoning right when I eat my food with these plates.

Olivia, who was wandering around the store searching for things to buy, I went to the receptionist and asked her a question.

"Miss, I have a question concerning the tablewares in the store. Are they safe to use? I won\'t get poisoned if I use them, right?" Asking the receptionist, I may sound like a bitch, but I\'m more concerned about Olivia and my safety.

"Don\'t worry. You\'re not the first to ask such things. All materials used here are safe; otherwise, our store wouldn\'t be running by now." The receptionist sounded very particular about it. With her words, I was reassured a little.

Getting back to Olivia, she had already chosen some of the things she wanted. Three plates were picked with three sets of utensils, each made from different materials.

The first one was a bright shiny bright gold color mixed with white. It was a classical fancy set made for a usual rich guy. I\'m not complaining since I actually liked the design of it.

The second was a plate made of art. Unlike expensive materials made from gold, this one had a red flower covering half of the plate and an excellent background.

Finally, the last one was a violet plate, just the color violet, it wasn\'t bad, so we decided on these three. We weren\'t here for this tableware, but it was nice to have extras.

Eventually, we searched for a table to buy. The table we found is a table enough for eight people. It was made of smooth wood, which both of us could get behind.

Going to the cashier, we went ahead and brought the plates set to the cashier. "That would be worth four gold," The cashier told us the price of the things we bought.

"We would like to buy a table. Could you tell us the price for it?" The two of us couldn\'t just pick up the table. That would be weird, so telling the cashier she followed us. No one else was in line, so she was free to do so.

"This is the table we would like to purchase."

"That would be two gold," Paying her 6 gold, I bagged the table into my storage bag and the plates and utensils we bought.

After buying them, we left the store. Olivia and I were going to head home and be done with the rest of the day. There were just too many people in the streets for us to do anything worthwhile.

Heading home, I heard someone familiar shout toward us. "Hey, blonde!" That annoying voice had resurfaced.

Looking at the speaker, Rebecca was standing behind us. How did she find us? Did she place a person to spy on us so she could stalk us?

Tired of this, I asked, "What do you want?" Speaking rudely, I asked what she wanted from me.

"You!" ??? Me? What did she mean by that?

"I want you!" My eyes twitched. What was she taking when she asked me that. Besides, I don\'t think I was that interesting for someone to want me suddenly. And if it was for my looks, many people could be on par with me or, even better, depending on someone\'s taste.

Olivia, who was beside me, was mind blown. Steam could be seen on her red face. From her expression, something lewd must have been dreamt of.

What did I do to deserve this much attention? I know I wasn\'t a good person, but I don\'t think I did anything to warrant such attention.

"Sorry, but I\'m not interested in being a property."

"Let me rephrase that. I want you to become my mate!" ??? Now I was convinced that she was taking some drugs.

I don\'t know how someone could make a decision like that in an instant, but if someone did, you better stay away from them. You won\'t know what they will do.

You must be perfectly insane to declare that to someone you just met. We didn\'t even have much of a conversation before this. Dwelling on this won\'t help. I must ask why Rebecca wants me to be her "mate."

Or maybe I just misunderstood the situation. Yeah, that was probably it. No one in the right mind would ask for marriage right away. Rebecca probably meant mate as a buddy.
