I’ve been frequenting the brothel for two consecutive days. A few days passed.
Inside a tavern and eatery that was also affiliated with the Adventurer’s Guild.
“We are here to recruit you, with the goal of one day reaching Magic Gold Class!”
“No, no, no! If it’s recruitment, we were here first!”
“What was that?”
“What did you say?”
Phasis was being solicited by other adventurers and parties day after day. The reason was information circulating about an incident. Many adventurers had fallen victim at a monster hunting ground. He had returned to town unscathed from the scene. Moreover, according to some adventurers’ reports, he could use magic. His Possessed Magic Power allowed him to sense the magic within himself using Magic Sense. With Mana Control, he could push that magic into the vessel within the maximum amount of his Possessed Magic Power. By repeatedly doing this, his Possessed Magic Power increased. However, without practicing from childhood, Possessed Magic Power could not be practically used. A spark, static electricity, a water droplet, a gentle breeze. These were the phenomena that typical adventurers could achieve with their Possessed Magic Power. This was quite distorted information. The truth was that McGillis, drinking fruit juice next to him, was involved.
“No, I am partnered with him…”
“Then you, kid, come with us to our Party too!”
Phasis was once again fending off adventurers who had come to recruit him, instigated by McGillis.
“They’re failing to recruit him again today, aren’t they?”
“How many have they tried already?”
They weren’t bothering to whisper. The adventurers drinking nearby, enjoying their drinks in the daytime, used the exchanges between Phasis and the recruiters as entertainment. The flow of alcohol increased, much to the establishment’s delight. After finishing their drinks and the alcohol wore off, the adventurers lamented their empty purses, a result of their own doing.
“Kugugu, hoo. Still energetic today, huh?”
“McGillis… this isn’t just their problem, you know.”
Phasis, though it would likely be in vain, asked McGillis to somehow stop them from recruiting and to correct the information spreading in town. The result was as expected.
“Let’s go hunt until the sun sets today.”
“… Huh? What?”
It didn’t work. Phasis, about to agree to the afternoon’s schedule, turned his attention to the commotion outside.
Bang!
“It’s an emergency!”
An adventurer burst into the shop.
“What’s wrong? What’s all the noise outside?”
An adventurer drinking nearby asked the one who had just entered, voicing what everyone else was thinking.
“Deep in the hunting ground! A King has appeared! Before it reaches the town, a Subjugation Force is being hastily organized!”
“Hey, hey, hey, you mean a King (a designation for a special individual that can organize medium-sized and small monsters like an army) has been born already?”
“They were only defeated a few months ago. And here it is already… no way.”
“How many Silver Class are there? A week ago, so many adventurers died. Even if they organize a force… will they be of any use?”
Hubbub, hubbub.
The drunken mood vanished. The adventurers confirmed the town’s combat power.
“…A King, huh.”
“What’s wrong, Fei?”
Phasis recalled memories from when his Party, 【Water Surface】, had visited the village.
(Collecting the King’s mane. It was a special request. I wonder if the Client is now…! The Client is looking for us (the 【Water Surface】 Party). For the penalty! Can I do something about this monster (McGillis)? )
A glimmer of hope appeared. But then he realized that McGillis was a being who would not be judged by human law and would not submit quietly.
“Hey, you.”
“Huh?”
A solo adventurer called out to him.
“Are you and your companion going to fight the King too?”
“…Is it mandatory?”
“You can use magic, right? With adventurers dwindling, the Guild (adventurers) won’t do their job if they don’t involve someone like you who can use magic.”
The adventurer invited Phasis to go with him to the Referral Office. They wanted to investigate how he increased his Possessed Magic Power to be able to use magic.
Adventurer’s Guild Referral Office.
“As some of you may have heard, a monster army led by a King has been discovered in this town. We are asking all of you to crush that army completely before it attacks our town.”
The Director of the Referral Office (Guild Master) announced that the town was under threat. He urged everyone to lend their strength, assuring them that the rewards would be substantial.
“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!!”
The adventurers of Iron Class responded loudly. The Silver Class adventurers quietly calculated the combat power present.
It’s too few. Is it tougher than the last subjugation… Should we flee…
They wanted to refuse the subjugation of the King and its army. If they were deeply wounded, it would serve as an excuse.
“Departure is tomorrow morning!”
“OOOOOOH! We’ll trample those monsters!”
The Iron Class adventurers, who had just made a huge, bad flag, left. They were enthusiastic, but emotion alone wouldn’t overcome the wall they faced: the difference in strength. Medium-sized monsters, well, that was understandable. They could defeat them one-on-one. But this was a coordinated horde. Cooperation and teamwork were important. A ragtag group. Weapons of various types and qualities. An impromptu subjugation force. There were many elements that could lead to defeat. It would depend on the efforts of the high-ranking adventurers with superior individual abilities and weapon quality. However, those high-ranking adventurers were hesitant to participate, trying to avoid repercussions from the penalty fees and the town’s residents. They were surprisingly reluctant. This was caused by McGillis and his group inciting the large monster. Adventurers of Rock Class knew this well. But they didn’t say anything. There were multiple Silver Class adventurers in the subjugation force. It was unlikely they would fail. After all, it had somehow worked out last time.
“Gather at the gate tomorrow morning. That’s all for now.”
Hubbub. Merriment.
Some checked their equipment for tomorrow. Others vowed to be successful. Some prepared to ensure that even if they failed tomorrow, there would be no repercussions. The adventurers gathered from the Referral Office began to move according to their individual objectives. McGillis and his group moved towards the wall to avoid being swept up in the crowd.
“A monster army led by a King, huh. Is it strong?”
“I heard that if you can use magic, you won’t die… so it’s probably strong.”
“Fufu. For tomorrow. We’ll go and recuperate now, shall we♪”
“…The brothel, right? Even if we sell the magic stones… we don’t have enough money.”
“WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?”
“B-but brothels are twice the cost of an inn! And since we’re not affiliated with the Adventurer’s Guild, we don’t get discounts. The first-time discount, the continuous use discount, the reverse-nomination discount from the ladies of the house, those were the only reasons I could go. Normally, I’d need to earn more to afford it.”
McGillis felt his intentions thwarted. Phasis, though scared of being scolded, conveyed the truth. If they could buy time, the client for the King’s mane request would dispatch a new party or solo adventurer, likely of a higher rank or combat power than them (Iron Class 【Water Surface】).
(I don’t have money. If he goes alone, that’s fine, it reduces my mental burden.)
“…Hmph. I’ll give up on the brothel…”
“…Is that so.”
McGillis and his group returned to their inn. Until dinner, they were lively discussing the brothel “Your Desires Will Be Fulfilled~~ Marshu– Sex Shop.”
“Well then, after eating, let’s sleep.”
“Yes. There’s nothing else to do, after all…”
Phasis couldn’t sleep due to the forced subjugation tomorrow. McGillis, in his Astral Body, reluctantly went to the Marshu Sex Shop. He spent the night watching others interacting with the shop’s girls.
“Instructor! ♡ That’s big!”
“For a poorly performing student, this dildo (larger than mine) is effective, isn’t it!”
“Ahhh! ♡ It hurts! ♡”
“It hurts? For something that hurts, you’re making such lovely noises~, aren’t you~?”
Rayos interrupted a play session with a hot-blooded teacher and student scenario.
“Guh~~, I really wish I could be there too~…”
Rayos possessed the dildo held by the hot-blooded instructor and aggressively thrust into the student-role girl.
“Wh… what? ♡ The movement has changed~.”
“Here, here, is this good~? Hmm? (The movement changed? Has my thrusting technique improved? Hmph, good! I’ll finish with my own spear–!)”
The hot-blooded teacher left the Playroom quite satisfied. The student, legs spread, convulsed and climaxed, trembling with a “Bikubiku” spasm.
“SHYKOOOOO~~ ♥”
Pshh, pshh.
Rayos was satisfied until a certain point. Pulled out, he was left with unfulfilled desire. He phased through walls, searching other Playrooms for customers using props.
“No one. No one. No OOOONE! Ughhh!”
Rayos finally possessed a bed and, without being noticed, caressed the woman’s anus, vagina, thighs, and neck. Then, as the date changed and it was time to return to the inn, he withdrew.
“I’ll definitely be there for today’s subjugation! Wait for me~~♪! You sex workers~~♪!”
