[A nice view makes up for many things, it's true. Hijikata can't help but smile at how Shang Qinghua rolls with the punches. He appreciates that in a person!

The airship station is in clear view again now, and the platform on which they fought the demon is still largely snow-free after all the fire that was in play.]

I need to check the airship schedule... the next ship might only come tomorrow. But if so, not to worry; I've got camping gear for both of us.

[That includes his temperature-controlled Luxury Tent, so even in the worst case they'll be able to get a good night's sleep!]

[Exactly! And he kinda has to, considering what he puts up with. Shang Qinghua brought them over to the station before touching down, letting his friend off first.]

Well, good thing I didn't give my king an exact return time. Should have asked him to give us a ride.

As long as that gear is better than a bedroll on a rock, I'm sold.

[As always, Hijikata is glad to be back on solid ground, as cool as flying on a sword is!]

No worries, my tent's reliable. I got it at Riki's.

[As opposed to the shady shop. He heard that some people who bought the Comfy Tent there had it fall apart on them at the slightest breeze! Given that there's no other warm shelter (apart from the old lady's house, and they definitely don't want to visit her again), he'll get it set up right away. Since he's got a lot of practice at that, they'll be warm and comfortable before long.]

Ah. I haven't tried their tents yet.

[Not when there were so much more interesting things to get.]

The potion version seems pretty good though. But I'm saving those for emergencies.

Okay, so you get the tent, and I'll set up the wards. I don't trust that granny over there isn't gonna start cooking again and grab the wrong recipe.

[mayoninofukucho]

Good thinking.

[Cultivators are useful alright! Seriously, if the old woman summons another demon, it won't be their problem. (Okay, if actually did happen, it probably would be, wards or no wards, but he really isn't feeling it!)

Having bagged two battle quests in one day, regardless of one being advertised as a mere errand, they really have earned the downtime. As the day wanes, they can eat and drink and talk and be on their phones until they get tired and crawl into their sleeping bags. It'll be like a sleepover! Isn't that the best part of questing?]
