Author's Note: Time to see the life of a bad man next chapter. Also I recommend getting drunk on a boat.

I don't know why I didn't say it with confidence. When I was speaking to her I got quite halfway through my sentences. I started to blush a lot. This is out of character for me. Why would I get so nervous around Rita? My date with Luna, I never was scared to talk to her.
Rita blushed at my compliment but squinted her eyes at me. No, that means glare is killing me in another way. I don't want Rita to be mad at me. Am I unable to compliment Rita? That must be it. Every time I do. It always ends up failing in a way.
"New topic. Do you like being outside?" Rita said still embarrassed from my compliment. Way to go Rita! You know how to change the subject and not make it weird, unlike me.
"Kind of. I do like the outdoors when it is peaceful. When there are dangers that are strong like The SS-ranked monster that almost took me out. I do not like being outside." I said to Rita.
"Oh, yeah I forgot you were an adventurer. You might not like being outside because of danger." Rita said while looking at some kids playing.
Yeah, I am not too into the outside. A lot of people have misconceptions about adventurers. People think we like the outside. Most don't, I like certain parts of the outside sure. Camping is fun from time to time. I hate being in swamps.
It is hot and humid. It smells like crap that has been sitting in the sun for a few days. Not a fan of areas like that. Especially since when swamps appear out of nowhere something big and strong lurks and stalks you. The Great Round Hungry Boi. That demonic beast is scary.
After getting attacked. I have nightmares about it creeping up on me. I want to stay away from such a thing until I get stronger. If that wolf girl who I still don't know the name of, if she didn't save me I would be dead.
That is why even though I spend most of my time outside. I don't like the outside as much as people would think. That is just my feelings on it.
"I have to worry about life and death every day. The outside seems like it is nice but unlike this park. Beasts both big and small lurk and hide in places." I said trying to not sound depressed.
"Wow. You are an expert at being a party pooper." Rita said while I acted like I got shot by an arrow. I was in shock that she would roast me after explaining why I hated the outside.
If anyone would watch this date from a TV screen. I can tell you they are dying of cringe. I am unable to get this girl to see my viewpoint. How do I expect to get in her pants?
This mission is going to be a lot harder. I need to do something and make magic happen. I will get in bed with her! I will make her happy because my mind is on the line. I refused to get dumb because I cannot woo women!
