******************************
Back to Gustan's house, Kalim went to Amber. The other girls weren't there yet so he decided to leave some instructions with her.
- «Amber, I will be discussing things with Frederick in his office so tell the others not to bother us. When the other girls come, show them to the rooms prepared for them. I want Eryween, Shanira and Elody in the same room, you will stay with Clarissa. Notify me when it's done.»
- «Understood master.»
Kalim opened the door of Frederick's office with MANLY GUSTO. The head of the Gustan family was busy with some paperwork when he came in. Seeing the one who rudely entered the room, he supressed himself and waited for him to speak.
- «Hi old man! I came here to talk about you and your assets. I mean, former assets, since they are now mine. But even if they are mine, I don't know much about their worth, so tell me. Tell me about your legal and illegal trade, about your partner among the nobles, and also about your enemies among the nobles.»
- «... Fine. I will start by the begining. My grandfather managed to cultivate an uncommon breed of vineyard, and it was with the wine made with them that our family started to make money. Then he created a transportation company so he could transport and sell his wine in other places himself.
And he started to transports other goods along the way. There was a problem with monsters to the south of the kingdom and his company provided great support to the populations of that area. And coupled with our good trade, we were rewarded with nobility. We still have our vineyard and our trade with differents luxury products is going well.
However, my father wanted more, but the pressure from higher ranked nobles kept our trade from growing further, so he turned toward illegal dealings, meaning smuggling, slave hunt and a bit of thievery. I believe you got to me by tracking one of the slave hunter team. We have several stores around this part of the kingdom, and the brothel of this city is ours as well.»
- «Whoa, quite the interesting tale. Take note of that order... I want you to get me get me good quality materials for light armors and weapons for 20 people. I also want material for shields, enough for 8 people. Get me the best you can put your hands on within 2 weeks... Now, tell me which nobles causes you the most troubles.»

- «In first position would be the ruler of this town of Brendon and its surrondings, viscount Boltran. After him are the rulers of the 2 neighbouring towns, viscount Tallon and count Moris. Then a a few other barons. Besides, we are close to the frontier with the kingdom of Quillis, with whom I trade a lot, but also with whom our kingdom of Darkasus has a really tense relationship right now. It hasn't really been good before anyway, there are skirmishes every few years and the last war with them was 27 years ago.»
- «How sad. Some of your enemies could make use of you trading with Quillis to make you appear as a traitor in case something significant happens between here and there. But you dealing with them is also a large part of your legal income. But since it's close to the frontier, viscount Boltran should be dealing with Quillis as well one way or the other.
You could have his protection against other nobles if we can have him believe that if you fall, he will follow as well... Let's leave aside for now and let's go more in depth with your trade within Darkanus and the general state of the country.»
While Kalim and Frederick were talking, the other girls arrived. As instructed, Amber led them to their rooms and notified Kalim. The 2 men used the chance to finish heir talk (to the relief of Frederick) and Kalim went to see his women and led them to an empty room to talk.
- «As you probably guessed, we will stay here for the new year. And while we are here you will help with the housework as well. Also, even though viscount Gustan, his wife and their daughter are all my slaves, don't reveal anything about my abilities to them. Now, did you girls get yourselves some nice clothes? If so, show me!»
Until dinner time, Kalim got to enjoy a private fashion show. After the meal, he prepared a hot bath for the girls, and when it was time to sleep he enjoyed another hot threesome with yuri with Amber and Clarissa. At a point they were sucking each other in a triangular formation and alterned positions. Clarissa fell asleep while cuddling against Amber. Kalim guessed that with another session she would end up calling Amber «big sister».
The next day, while the girls were enjoying themselves one way or the other Kalim went to the tailor and the woodcrafter to learn about the materials they work with, and since he had a little time left, he went to a jeweler and stayed with her and her husband until after night fall. Kalim was a little dizy after getting that amount of information so he was calmer than usual that night.
And for him, the best way to properlly rest was to be surrounded by Shanira, Eryween and Elody. Those 3 were his favorites among favorites. Shanira for being a gorgeous tiger woman adventurer with fighting spirit, Eryween for being a kind mesmerising elf with good magic, and Elody for being a pretty and dependable dark skined villager with real feelings for him. That's right, Elody was the only one among the girls to show real care and affection for him. Amber was more horny than loving and the other were just resigned to their fate and following his wishes.

With those 3 girls near him, he was able to have a very serene night. It was also the first night he spend without fucking anyone, yet he didn't wake up with a morning wood; that surprised him when he woke up.
- ''I had a weird dream that night, I got weird ideas for the use of matter manipulation... I think the amount of informations I digested awakened some of my past world knowledge. This will be interesting for the future... Now, what to do today? I didn't make any plans...''
Putting the thoughs aside, Kalim went to prepare baths for everyone, even the Gustan family members and servants. He went in with the 3 girls he spend the night with. He looked at them for a bit and got an idea.
- «Ok girls, today we are going to the adventurer guild and take a mission. I hope there will be an interesting mission we can finish before tomorrow evening... Wait, Elody, you're not an adventurer yet. You will register at the same time.»
However his idea was shot down by Shanira.
- «You won't get any interesting missions since you're just an F rank adventurer. At most you can only get E rank missions. Someone with your abilities would be able to take on a C rank mission, and since I'm D rank, I could take such a mission and make a party with you. But C rank missions usually require more than 1 day to complete. We can still have a look at what is available, but don't get your hopes up.»
Hearing this, Kalim dropped his head and groaned.
- «I wanted to do something exciting while waiting for the New Year Festival... I guess I will settle for something simple... We are going to take a D rank mission and come back tomorrow afternoon. Once we are done with the bath, tell Alinee to come with us.»
- «What if there are no D rank missions available? Or what if it require more than a day to complete due to the distance to the objective?»
- «Then we will train in the wilderness until tomorrow. I already planned for that in case the mission could be completed by the end of the day.»
- «I see... But knowing you, if you wanted to do something exciting, you could just have all of us all day long. You just want to fight don't you?»
- «Yeah, I want to fight, if not possible I want to spar with a few people. And if I have to spar, better do it with you girls so I can have a better understanding of your abilities.»
With that said, they finished their bath and Kalim told Amber of his plan for the day and the night. He let her and Tania in charge of the girls and told her they should avoid going outside. You can never know what might happen when people are too busy preparing for the festival to notice something wrong going on near them.
Kalim left the house with Eryween, Shanira, Elody and Alinee, and the 5 of them went to the adventurer guild. Some of the people who saw him come in got the blood drained from their faces, while others looked with great jealousy. After all, Kalim was with a beautiful elf and a hot tiger girl. Some guys tried to get close but were restrained by the pale faced people, who just shook their heads from side to side with their eyes closed. Looking around, the horny guys understood that Kalim was bad news and went back to their places with dejected looks.
It was the same lady as the last time at the counter and she was nervous to see him again
- «Hi again, I'm here for the registration of my girl here (motioning to Eldoy) and see if there are interesting missions to take.»
He left Elody and Eryween at the counter and went to the mission board with Alinee and Shanira.
- «Tell me when you find something that fit my criteras.»
He left them there and went to have a look at the training ground. He sat near the entrance and observed the few people training their weapons skills. Kalim new he had great abilities, but he lacked proper training and significant battle experience. Up until now he only relied on his power and agility, and he knew it had its limits. So he carefully observed their movements. Once they got back to their hideout he would ask the 4 girls to teach him the basics.
******************************
AN: I wrote the chapter, and when I was about to post it, I realised I didn't think of a name for the chapter... I didn't find anything good, so I just went with that... (I have a title for the chapters of all my fictions, couldn't allow myself to post a chapter without title, even if the only thing I can think of is bad)
What do you want? An average mission followed by training? Or an "interesting" mission?

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
