“What in damnation was that? You didn’t tell that you were already an expert tar!”
“Oh, that? It’s just a little trick that I could employ since it was restrained. As you know, I have a beast lord bloodline as well, so that helped”
Edrick acted quite nonchalantly as he walked with his new pet by his side. Ansbach–As he had decided to call the fluffy fellow–Had been imparted with a pet crest, which was just the sa thing as a servant crest. Though with a body covered in fur, the crest itself was impossible to see.
“Is that so? That’s quite the handy trick you’ve got there… Any chances that it can be replicated?”
“I am afraid not”
Wenxiong shrugged. It was a good thing that Edrick already had a way to ta creatures. This should definitely be of great help to him in the future, and that was without having learned any actual beast-taming techniques, too.
“Here, take this” the ancestor handed a round gem of sorts “It’s a classic tool for tars. A willing creature can be put inside of it for twenty-four hours at most. Makes it easier to transport certain beasts, or just makes it more convenient to go around”
“Just put your new pet inside it. I’ll take you sowhere fun” Wenxiong grinned. It didn’t take a genius to figure out what kind of ‘fun’ he was referring to…
“Oh? I thought this market didn’t really have much of what you were interested in?”
“Hehe… We aren’t going anywhere in this market. They only offer the sort of stuff that humans don’t feel anything wrong with lying down in bed with… But Invefno is a big city! There is a red district where really good stuff takes place”
Wenxiong cracked his neck.
“You see, apart from the various Paradisos, the business of selling pleasure isn’t very developed in Leynlornd, do you know why?”
“I am afraid that I am not too aware of the reasons for it” Edrick knew a little bit, actually, but he let the ancestor explain more thoroughly.
“The thing is that brothels are technically legal in this kingdom, but they have pretty strong restrictions placed on them. After all, making pleasure easily available might kill the desire for people to start families... And a nation that makes no babies is a nation that is running itself into the ground…”
“...And also, too many brothels don’t acquire their ‘goods’ in the correct manner. They try to cut corners and resort to slavery, but as you know, that’s completely banned here. That only leaves two real places where there is so professionalism about it”
“There is the Red Mansion, which is backed by us and has a squeaky clean history, as well as high prices, which makes it so that the common man doesn’t have a real easy access to the goods. And then there is the red district of Invefno”
The ancestor scratched his chin with a smile.
“Red Mansion is also involved here, but mostly to watch and make sure that nothing unlawful is going on... But the goods are instead far more diverse. You can even take so of them ho if you want”
“Anything besides these two is shady, underground, and the like… Naturally, we also sponsor a lot of those. I am sure you would love many of our sponsors and so of our sub-clans…”
“I did look into those more closely after I returned to the clan. I’ll need to visit them eventually…”
“That’s the spirit”
The two n arrived in the red district whilst it was still broad daylight. The place was already plenty occupied. In fact, there was a public display where one could get a turn with a ‘worker’ for just a few Copper Leyens.
Apparently, the price would decrease throughout the day as more and more people had their way with her and soiled the goods.
That was indeed sothing Anoteros wouldn’t be expecting from the Red Mansion. They did things more cleanly and viewed the act itself in an almost ritualistic fashion that was to be respected. What was happening here wasn’t proper at all. Most of these n would be worth nothing to a dual cultivator.
Neither Edrick nor Wenxiong were very interested in that, however. With practised movents, Wenxiong took Edrick to an establishnt that was a bit tucked away from the rest. Considering the sort of things happening in the open, it made one wonder just what sort of activities could be so odd that it would be concealed even here…
In this world, there were specific terms for many things, and a few of those things–Even in this bizarre and wild world–Were seen as problematic by the wider public.
So of those were ‘Lagneiefests’, which involved one receiver and many givers.
Bestia, which was what Wenxiong was very clearly into.
Monstrosita, which would be what Niediao was obsessed with.
Or even Persanta-Missa, which was sothing else entirely… And although enjoying that last one wasn’t exceptionally frowned upon in itself, the practitioners tended to make the ‘adjustnts’ to their partners themselves instead of just finding soone who already fitted the description.
Naturally, there were layers.
Certain creatures were seen as alright to desire, whilst so others would get you more than just a few weird glances.
In this place, however, Wenxiong was welcod like a war hero.
“Ah, Sir Wenxiong! It is such a pleasure to see my best client back! Who might this gentleman be who is accompanying you? It has been a while since you last recomnded us to soone else!”
“Ahah, this is Zixuan, but you can just call him Edrick or Anoteros. He is a young mber of my clan, a real talent and diamond in the rough! He recently ca back from a little trip outside the clan, and I discovered that he possessed most incredible tastes” spoke the ancestor with his arms crossed.
‘He is propping up like I am his direct son…’
It felt quite good, actually.
“How nice! What might I interest you with then? Sothing exotic, or maybe sothing more basic for the young fellow’s first ti here? Our catalogue has not changed since the last ti” the man–Who was certainly the owner of this place–Handed Wenxiong a small book from a stash where several more identical ones were also placed.
It was an advanced, nu-like way for custors to know what they could perform so ‘Bestia’ with here.
“I think we’ll both take a Flower-Twined Deer. What do you think, Edrick?”
“Sounds good to , but how does it work exactly?”
“Don’t worry about that. The service providers are well-tad and can understand commands very clearly. They were trained specifically for this purpose”
“Interesting…”
