Chapter 97: Peak Half-Step!

The next morning...

Since Hope was in his room, Muku had slept in Hope's room. Could have used an empty room but... Hope's seemed a lot better. Not for any perverted reason or anything like that, just that the unoccupied rooms weren't cleaned by anyone. Or at least that's what Muku assumed since Audrey didn't think it was important enough to tell him when she did.

Anyway, due to the constant supply of corrupted beast guards Audrey provided, the group no longer needed to have lookouts. They could all sleep at night, comfortably too. On top of that, Muku was still recovering, which made him fall into a deep sleep that night. Which shouldn't have been a problem until he found someone sleeping next to him when he woke up.

"Umm, what are you doing here?" He asked while he and the person looked into each other's eyes. Like the monk he was, he was completely unmoved...at least on the surface.
