Hikari looked at the waitress girl and sighed. The elf turned to Kurayami and thumped her on the forehead. "What are you telling her?"
"Master...Hikari, does it even matter? I thought you were more open to revealing yourself now."
The elf shook her head. "This place is completely different from either of those places…"
"Miss Hikari!" Maxine shouted. "You gave me real gold coins!"
Hikari smiled wryly. "You figured that out already, did you?"
"Yes, there is no way I can accept a tip like that so easily. Not only that, but it seems like the feds are going to look for you now."
"How did that happen?"
"I went to a pawn shop...Wait, you didn't steal those coins did you?"
The elf placed a finger on her chin and tilted her head. "I'm not sure stolen is the right term. I did raid and take them from a place I didn't necessarily own, but many of them were earned through quests. We'll just say that was questing gold."
Maxine's mouth flopped open like a fish.
"Relax, I'm joking!"
