So I have been almost naked this whole time!

This is bad, but then again nothing I can do about it. Usually, I would ask some kind passerby to help me but there are none. Seriously, screw these merchants!

Oh well, it can't be helped that they are wary, but it still annoys me. They didn't have to add insult to injury at least.

Alright, they don't want us to follow them, but they are slower than us and kinda taking all the road. We can make a detour around them, but it would take a while. For now, we'll just camp on the side and spend the night here.

It won't be too late to be on our way tomorrow. I'm tired of walking anyway. Not physically that much, but it did become boring quickly.

At some point, I tried riding the unicorn for a change of pace, but it started making pretty weird noises. I jumped off quickly even if it kept telling me to ride it and not to be shy.

Like seriously I felt it almost became dangerous.

And by that, I mean it could have become dangerous for my sexual orientation *shudder*. Seriously that unicorn would be the ultimate H game voice actor. I am not kidding.

Like she could easily give life to some blonde masochistic knight or something I don't know. Still, I decided to walk.

Now how does one make a rest area for our party? Well, we can't make any fire, at all. This means that it's either we eat wild berries, or we starve.

So we mostly starve cause I'm too lazy to look for some and so are my companions. Wolfie doesn't mind getting food, but only meat. As for the unicorn well, she'll way too enthusiastic about searching for berries it makes me feel bad. Like I am taking advantage of her. It doesn't help that she'll get me some but won't consume any.

She's been overall weird since she changed her look. I'm guessing it's puberty or something. Most teenagers have an edgy period. This is probably the same. I'm not familiar with the horse growth cycle. Does that apply to unicorns? I don't know.

Oh well.

*Crack*

[Who goes there?!]

A man comes out of some bushes. He seems to be coming from the main road. Was he with the merchant caravan? Quite possibly.

He is the very definition of a bishonen. Young, tall, slender, fit, handsome. Dressed elegantly with long hair that reaches all the way to his back. To complete it all, a radiant smile and deep blue eyes where one can easily get lost into. I almost get sunk into them and I'm a guy. This says a lot about how pretty he is!

"I come in peace!"

[Are you an alien?]

"What?"

[Never mind it was a joke, what can I do for you?]

From his voice, he is a man for sure.

"Oh, I saw how they turned you away earlier. I thought that to be slightly cruel on their part. Are you perhaps in need of assistance?"

[Well depends, do you have any spare clothes?]

"Spare? No, but I can give you some of the ones I am wearing. Give me a second…"

He starts to undress revealing a white shoulder and some well-defined abs.

[No stop! It will be fine!]

Do I stop him because I do not want to wear his clothes? Not at all. I am just worried about my sexual orientation once again.

I fear that if he removes any more clothing, I will become part of the: a hole is a hole faction.

He reluctantly stops. Why do I get the feeling he likes undressing? What's with people today? Well people and unicorns…

"Is that so? You guys make an unusual party, so I got curious."

[We are heading to the diplomatic city since it looks like a fun place. I plan to become a renowned pie chef there!]

"A…pie chef? That is oddly specific…why that?"

I look at him confidently.

[Because that is the only thing I can cook. Well barbecue too.]

"…That. How about we eat some of your barbecues then? I am famished! What can I do to help?"

[*Sigh* It is no use except if you know how to start a fire…]

He looks at me weirdly.

"I do know how to. You could say it is my specialty actually."

[Wow! This must be fate!]

I need to get this guy to join the sect! For the fire! Ah ...no I mean because he looks nice, no he seems like a nice person! Yes, that's the only reason. Well, maybe the fire a tiny little bit.

As soon as he replies Wolfie darts toward the wild to go hunt. There are monsters roaming around from time to time I'm sure she'll find something.

The unicorn is smart and figures it out too. She follows behind quickly not willing to be outdone.

"What is up with them?"

Is this scene that surprising?

[Hunting.]

To be honest it is a miracle that Wolfie can even hunt with how weak she is. Well, she is smart enough to figure it out. As for the unicorn, it is a miracle that she doesn't reduce all her opponents to dust with her overwhelming power. It is surprising how competitive they both get.

He looks flabbergasted for some weird reason. Then he comes back to his senses.

"You can call me Sun. I am a traveler heading to that diplomatic city too, same as you. What are the chances!"

[Oh, sun because of your radiant smile? I'm just a nameless wanderer.]

He is blushing for some reason. Did I say something weird?

In a slightly uncomfortable atmosphere, they both return triumphant from their hunt. One with some unknown monster almost bigger than herself. The other carrying another one impaled on her horn and trotting happily.

I can hear our guest on the side.

"What the hell is up with your wolf and your donkey?!"

What? A donkey? I glance at the unicorn.

"Oh, that? You are the only one I will allow to see my true appearance from now on!"

What? But why? When did we get so close? Like seriously?

[You know illusion magic?]

"Nope, just an inherited unicorn magic."

[Oh I see.]

Explains it.

"What the hell! You are traveling with a unicorn?!"

Why is this bumpkin acting so surprised now? *scoff*
