Chapter 760

“I’m not a lolicon!” I cried as I created a light bulb, illuminating the room and showing Garnet lying there, and of course, she was naked.

“And I’m not a child, so what’s your point?” Garnet frowned.

“I mean, the way you look…” I responded, sputtering slightly.

“Do you think all dwarf men are lolicons?”

“What? No!”

“But all dwarf women look like me, so if dwarf men are into dwarf women, and anyone who is attracted to a dwarf woman is a lolicon, then isn’t that what you’re saying?”

“…”

“You humans have some strange hang-ups about stuff. If we’re not going to have sex, can you turn out the light?”

“Is casual sex a dwarf thing too?” I asked.

“What are you saying?”

“We’ve just ended up in the same bed together twice now, and you seem to be very okay with having sex. Most girls would be resistant or shy.”

“Well… even if you say that I said it probably won’t fit…” She responded.

“Right, you mentioned that…”

“Well, I’m not saying we can’t try…”

“I’m not having sex with you.”

“Tsk… fine…” She shrugged. “You’re just a cute Hero around my age. If I’m going to lose it to someone, it might as well be you. That’s distinctly my opinion, not a dwarf thing.”

“Wait, you’re a virgin!”

“I know I‘m pretty easy going about this kind of stuff, but even my feelings get hurt when you say things like that.”

“Sorry, my bad.”

“It’s just, I’m already twenty-two, so I figured I might as well lose it. I always figured I’d lose it to some womanizer while I was drunk anyway.

“Now, I feel like I’m being insulted.”

She stuck her tongue out at me but otherwise didn’t respond. With a sigh, I let the light snuff out. As someone who had slept with other women by my side for some time now, it had only been the last month where I had slept alone. In other words, there was a bit of comfort sleeping next to a woman again.

Come that morning, the innkeeper gave me a knowing look, and I gave him a mouthful for giving the drunk dwarf my keys. I guess he had thought he was doing me a favor, so I made sure to set the record straight. I also made sure I did it in front of the barmaid to set the record straight. She was now giving the bartender a dirty look instead of me while he helplessly apologized like he hadn’t done anything wrong. I guess when I said I wasn’t interested in the young barmaid or the older woman, he assumed that I was interested in a loli. Seeing her drunk, he did the honorable thing and hooked us up.

To the barmaid, this probably felt like taking money right out of her pocket, so she ended up quite angry at him.

I walked out of the inn and saw Garnet walking down the street. I flagged her down.

“Are you ready to get going?”

“Huh? Where am I going?” Garnet asked curiously.

I blinked. “Um… we’re leaving the dungeon?”

She blinked. “I’m not leaving the village. This is my home now.”

I had assumed since we reconnected that she’d be joining me on my campaign. She had other things on her mind.
