Isekai Hotel

Shirou's first day of work. After leaving class and changing his clothes, he arrived at the hotel in the afternoon. He put on the casual clothes that he always wore.

When he opened the door, he met some unknown people preparing to leave. They were two men wearing armor and holding weapons. One held a sword, and the other had a bow.

Shirou looked at the two and clenched his fists, but Nahida appeared before he could say anything.

"Excuse me, he'll be working here from today, don't worry about him." Nahida closed the door so the men couldn't see that unknown city and placed himself between Shirou and them.

"I see." The man holding a sword said before walking past the two and leaving. Shirou could see the outside at a glance when the two left, but he just ignored it; he was probably mistaken.

"What was that? Why were they dressed like that?"

"I told you to ignore our guests, didn't I? I said they would be strange, you'll have to get used to it from now on. But now I'll show you around the hotel, come on."

Nahida guided Shirou through the 'dining room,' the kitchen where Shirou met Chef Lucky, and also showed him the upper floor where the rooms were.

"All the rooms are the same, they all have two beds, and also a bathroom that needs to be cleaned daily."

"So I just need to clean everything, right?"

"Yes. It's usually an easy job since the guests don't dirty much, but sometimes some nasty people might show up." Nahida remembered the disgusting merchant who had stayed there a few days before.

"And when I'm done cleaning up?"

"When you're done cleaning, you can take care of serving food to the customers. In case there is no one to be served, you can rest."

"Got it. But there aren't many guests here."

"We opened recently, so it's normal that we don't have many customers. But I'm improving the hotel over time, so I'm sure we'll get a lot of guests soon." Shirou wasn't confident, but he didn't care.

As long as he gets paid to work there, it doesn't matter if there are few guests.

The bell above the door rang while Shirou was cleaning the floor and tables. Who entered was a woman with flashy blue hair wearing some strange but quite attractive clothes.

"Bulma?" Nahida said unconsciously.

"Do you know me?" Bulma looked away slightly. The corner of her lips lifted.

"Yes, the receptionist told me about you. We didn't get a chance to talk last time."

"I see, so she told you about me. What did she say to you?"

"Hmm... She didn't say anything much, she just said that you were interested in me."

"What?" Bulma's face turned slightly red. "Well, it's not a lie, but... Okay, I want a room!"

"Alright, for how many days?"

"Just for today, I also want to taste the food I didn't get a chance to taste last time."

"All right, it's 5 thousand."

"Here you go." Bulma pulled out the money and handed it to Nahida. He kept a gentle smile the whole time, making Bulma's heart flutter. Her hands were sweaty from nervousness.

Bulma couldn't understand why her heart had gone crazy upon seeing Nahida. She spent many days thinking about it until she dared to return to see him again.

However, when she arrived at the place where the hotel was, another building was in place. She was pretty surprised and nervous, but as soon as she opened the door, she found Nahida at the reception, which calmed her down.

But how could the hotel have changed so much in such a short time?

After seeing Nahida and talking to him, Bulma started to ignore all this.

It didn't matter if the hotel had changed; what mattered was that she had the opportunity to talk with him again.

After getting her room key, Bulma sat at one of the tables. Shirou saw this and tried to approach, but Nahida approached her first to see if she wanted something to eat.

"I'm a little hungry, so bring me something. Besides, I'm going to bed in a while, I want a light dish so it won't disturb my sleep."

"Right, I'll have our chef prepare something."

"Ah-" After Nahida turned to leave, Bulma almost called out to him, but she didn't.

Nahida gave a smile and walked to the kitchen.

"Is she really interested in me? ..." It had been a while since a girl had given him as many 'openings,' so he didn't quite know how to react.

"It's weird, though. I don't remember Bulma being a person who shows so much interest in someone like that. I don't think I've read enough Dragon Ball."

"Huh?"

"It's nothing, Lucky. Our guest wants a light dish for her to eat, a portion of food to eat before going to bed. What can you do?"

"Hmmm... I can make a fish fillet, it's a lighter protein and it's easy to digest. I will also make rice. Rice is an easily digestible food, but I will put just a little because it is not good to eat so much before bedtime."

"All right, do that. Now I'm going to go back over there to talk to her some more. That girl seems to be interested in me."

"In you? Why?"

"I don't know. Maybe I'm handsome?"

"Urgh..."

"Lucky, I'm your boss..."

"..."

Nahida approached the table where Bulma was sitting. "Can I sit down?" He asked her, and Bulma nodded. Nahida pulled out the chair and sat down.

"So, why are you interested in me? Does it have anything to do with this hotel by any chance?" Nahida asked, but he already knew the reason for her interest. He just wanted to start a conversation with her.

"I'm interested in that too. First, I want to know why a hotel in this strange area, the hotel is hidden in the middle of the bigger buildings. Doesn't that hinder your business?"

"Oh yes, hidden." Nahida didn't know precisely where his hotel was in Bulma's world but agreed. "Well, it was the only place I could find to build my hotel. We don't have many customers."

"It's obvious! The hotel is in such a bad area that it's almost impossible to find if you're not lost. I found your hotel by chance while coming home."

"I see."

"Ah, but I was also not only interested in the hotel, but I was also interested in you. You have a unique appearance." Bulma said, hiding her embarrassment.

"My appearance is unique? Maybe because of my blonde hair? Or maybe my beard? My friends always told me that I was strange-looking back when I was in high school."

"I don't think you're strange. I think you're very handsome." Bulma looked at Nahida's chest. Despite him wearing a shirt, she could get some sense of Nahida's physique. It was an excellent physique.

Nahida didn't go to the gym and just trained at home, so he was proud of his muscles. He noticed Bulma's gaze, so he cleared his throat. "Cof... Cof... I thank you very much for the compliment, you are also a very beautiful woman."

Nahida said as if it was no big deal. When she heard the compliment, Bulma's face turned red as a tomato. Bulma was screaming internally because of her happiness for being praised by Nahida.

"Now if you'll excuse me, I need to supervise my new employee. He's upstairs by himself and I'm afraid he'll do something stupid."

"Okay, take your time." Listening to Bulma, Nahida laughed, making Bulma's heart flutter again.

"The food is almost ready, I'll bring it to you in a bit."

'He's so beautiful... He's so beautiful...' Bulma didn't even hear Nahida's words.
