After the girls had their fun watching me squirm after Venna's reaction, we swiftly left the building and directed our steps toward our lodging. With so many events that happened through the day, there were still about two hours of daylight left, but I decided that it would be the best to make Eve rest as much as she could ever want before her fights.

No matter how big were the fishes that we were playing with until the auction commences, no one would dare to imagine how deep my connections were. With that, despite how I treated her before, the receptionist greeted us with a single smile before going back to reading some kind of scroll that she clumsily tried to hide behind the wall of the counter. I guess this was yet another ancient scroll of questionable worth.

Even in the environment of this city focused on cultivation and training various martial arts, not everyone was either talented or born in a family rich or influential enough to pursue this path right from birth. People like her had to work their ass off to scrap some money only to get some worthless techniques or resources to cultivate. Looking at her, I could clearly see that she is only at the Soul Hazard realm! What a waste of a pretty face like hers!

Wait, considering my ideas as to what to make with the second floor of the building, I might be able to make some good business here!

"Would you mind going upstairs for now? I think I have a good idea!"

Turning my head to Eve, I instantly notice the look of suspicion in her eyes. I guess she caught me red-handed when I stared at the receptionist while falling in deep thought!

"What's going on through your dirty mind right now?"

Coiling her hands around my neck, she instantly hugged me and whispered those words in a seductive voice right into my ear. What this is, an ASMR session now?

"We left our toy back at the sect, so I figured out that we could procure another one for the time being!"

Unwilling to hold anything back, I straight out explained my idea to my beloved. While it's still rather a strange feeling of living in such a one-sidedly open relationship, but I'm not someone who would complain about favourable reality!

"Well, isn't that I actually mind it. Having someone else to take care of your needs when I'm tired is actually pretty comfortable, but I guess that's not your main point? But don't you think it's kinda not worth the effort? Just look at her cultivation! It's too weak to be of any real use to you!"

Understanding the first part of my idea, she instantly points out the main flaw in it. Considering how the amount of attribute points that I'm racking during my sessions with her, we both know that the higher the cultivation of the woman, the richer her yin essence. It's rather obvious that the weaker one gets, the benefits will be smaller as well!

"That's the whole point that I would like to bring! What if we helped her cultivate to a satisfactory realm so that she could serve as a good resource? We don't know how long we will stay here, so it would be best to make the most of this time, don't you think?"

While we were taking quite a bit of liberty to speak about the receptionist future as if she agreed to my proposition already, it would be all for nothing if she didn't like the idea. I guess there is only one thing I could do at this point to push this matter forward. Even if she refuses, I can bet there will be loads of talented girls that lack resources or backing that would love to use this opportunity to reach for greater heights!

"Hey."

With Eve leaving for the stairs, I causally approached the deserted reception window, where the girl that helped us with directions was sitting. As soon as she heard my voice, she instantly panicked, trying to hide the scroll from my view.

"Don't worry about it. I won't rat you out!"

Daim, I don't know why, but this kind of fragile females was what fanned the flames of my arousal the most! Is it possible that I have such a paternal side to me?

"How can I help you then?"

Breathing with relief when she heard my pledge, she actually turned her cute face back to me and looked me in the eyes. I guess she didn't forget how generous I was with my money!

"Actually, I would like to ask, how much do you earn in this job?"

Right to the core of the topic. If she was making good money here, I might be unable to promise her a satisfactory wage for her services either now or later. While tempting her with cultivation techniques would prove effective considering how eager she was to study them even in work, I actually could only guide her base cultivation! With the abilities steeming from the system, I forgot to stock on any real techniques that I could impart to others! Even if I was able to pinpoint the flaws in other techniques thanks to my high wisdom stat, it didn't mean that I could make one myself!

"Hmm? Five arena coins per month, why do you ask?"

Uff, it seems that the idea of slave labour was as common here as back on earth. Or maybe because of how easy it was for me to make huge amounts of money, my perception of its worth was shifted?

Bonger, before I forget, I remember there was some kind of shop tool when I got you upgraded, can I get some cultivation and martial techniques from there?

"Looking at how diligently you were trying to learn, I figured I could propose you something nice. Tell me, what would you do to get way better techniques and loads of resources?"

"Blop!"

"Host can obtain cultivation techniques of low or high mortal and low spiritual realms."

"Those techniques cost 10, 100 and 1000 attribute points."

"Host can obtain martial techniques of low or high mortal and low spiritual realms."

"Those techniques cost 5, 50 and 500 attribute points."

Type of the technique is chosen randomly. The host can browse through the archives and pick the specific technique for double the price."

"It depends… With my earnings, after deducting the living costs and taxes, I have enough money left to slowly grow, so it's not like my current life is bad or something…"

It was clear that my questions were leading to something, so she was kinda wary with her responses. Considering that I was a proper cultivator from a real sect, I bet she was worried that if she said something wrong, I would force her to follow my orders in some shady manner!

"Ah, forget about this pointless effort. What I can offer you, are techniques and resources that would let you reach spirit attainment in just a jiffy. Tell me, what would you be willing to do for such an opportunity?"
