WARNING!
MATURE SEXUAL CONTENT
Built amidst the field of green grasses, the Kingshill City is is surrounded by forests which have helped shape the city to what it is today. Two story houses and building is what most of this city have. The city's is also famous for it’s cuisine, many food carts, stall offer a different kind of culinary choices. The population reach 2 million people to this day. A dungeon also exist in the vicinity of the city, and so attacted many adventurer who come to explore it.
Request is also tremendous in the adventure guild so has attracted a lot of attention from many youth and individual that aspire to be an adventurer.
The carriage stop in the front of the gate. A soldier come closer to the carriage. "what business do you have here? We will check inside of your carriage.”
"Good day sir. I’m a merchant from the Capital City of Asviel" the merchant come out of the carriage and show the guard some kind of emblem, and then the guard looked surprised with full of sweat all over their face.
“Pardon for my rudeness, welcome to Kingshill City, your carriage may pass, sorry to take your time.” The soldier said.
The merchant replied amiably with a vague smile and the heavy gate opened. The carriage I’m in start moving again through the gate, the main road is quiet wide, it can fit four carriage. We stop at the building called ‘Adventure Guild’, the guard wake me up and 10 minutes later the merchant come out from the guild and toss me 50 gold coin. Thus I part way with him.
The sun shine brighly atop my head indicated that it’s 12 pm. It’s so lively here and filled with people, most of them wear a leather clothing. I just realize on the way that I’ve got no money, It’s a good thing that I met an easy merchant on my way here. At least I can stop worrying about money, for now.
After walking for 5 minutes, a series of food stalls entered my vision, It’s smells so good. Fish is being grilled, there is even food similar to taco.
For me there are three kind of food; not bad, bad, very bad, even so I’m not a picky eater. It’s just no food can ever satisfied my palate. I stop myself in one of the stall that slightly caught my attention. It’s similar to Truffle, I buy one of them and put it in my mouth. it has a conical shape with a ganache coated in chocolate, icing sugar and hazelnuts. ‘not bad’ I thought nodding my head, thus buy a sack of them , put it in my inventory, and continue strolling the main street.
I set my eyes on a tavern, bricks make up most of the building's outer structure. You can see through the small glass windows. The music from within can be heard outside. the song sounds good so I come inside.
As I open the tavern wooden door, I welcomed by a feeling of comfort and warmth from nearby fireplace and cheerful singing of the bard.
The space is little packed. Some tables are occupied by a groups of adventurer who seems had quite a few drinks. Some people are singing and dancing around the bard while holding a mug of wine in their hand and occasionally sipping on them. I walk through the crowd and sit at the stool where it’s not occupied, I wave my hand to the woman who looked like the bartender. She welcome me with a sweet smile.

“Bloody mary.” I said with half closed eyes.
“Huh?” the girl bartender show a confused face.
“Ah I mean, gimme your best drink.” I clear my throat.
“Hey hey what we have here, a brat should not be here, where’s your mama? Just drink mama milk boy. Keke.” A drunk man on my side laugh when he saw a youth who looked around 17 years old order drink, the stink odor come out from his mouth as he speak.
But suddenly his head fall to the table with ‘thud’ sound, unmoving. Finally the bartender come and place a drink in front of me, she only take a glance at the unmoving drunked man then ignore him and attend the other costumer. This kind of thing here is common in this tavern, sometimes they drunk too much and collapse or so they thought.
There’s a small trace of gentle, blue electric sparks intertwining around my wand inside my cloak. I think he won’t wake up at least for three days. I finish my mug in one gulp and put one gold coin on the table before leaving the tavern. My mood is ruined.
According to Eva, In this world 1 gold is 30 silver coin, 1 silver is 50 cooper coin. For one mug of wine it cost only 30 cooper coin, you can imagine the surprised face of the bartender when see saw this scene.
I looked around the shop lining up in neat manner. There is a store that caught my attention because of ‘The Talking Door’ sign written on it.
Inside there are many interesting stuff that caught my interest. As I looked around, suddenly I saw a handsome youth with a slight pale white skin, black eyes, his hair is slightly in disarray, but overall he looked really breathtaking. he make a light smile at me, I look at him for a while, but soon get tired of it, so I put the mirror down, and ask the clerk how much the mirror cost?
I buy the mirror and a black comb seeing my hair is in disarray. as I try to leave, my sight stop at the wand that had luxurious look to it.
As if understand my thought, the shop clerk said “This wand is made out of Dragonfly bone and spirit wood. which is perfect for noble like young master, the combination of this strand of spirit wood and Dragonfly bone means the wand will provide the wielder with agility because of it’s light weight. And it even has a rare salamander core.”
“How much?”
“Ah it’s not really expensive, it’s only 50 gold coin, which I’m sure it’s quiet affordable for young master.” Th clerk grin. He saw that I was a student of Arachnid Academy from my attire and assume that I was a rich noble son, so he raise the praise as much as he could.
I narrow my eyes and glare at the clerk which make him shudder, “Here” I toss purse of coin with 50 gold in it to the clerk with the money I got from the bounty. It’s was this moment that I realize one of my weakness.. It’s.. that I don’t know how to haggle.
So I just casually pay him and leave the store. I put Axelle wand to the inventory and the wand that I just bought to my cloak, it’s easier this way to take it out for quick draw.
It’s finally time to fill my stomach. I go inside the inn, people here said that this place is famous for it’s Venison so I ended up coming here, but it looked like it’s packed inside, there’s no empty place left to sit.

Many of the costumers glance to the table in the corner of the inn so I follow their gaze and saw 2 familiar figure in black cloak. My eyes lit up and make my way to them.
“Can I sit here?” I make a light smile.
“Ah! Lestat!, why did you here?” Eva surprised at my presence.
“I’m hungry, so I come here.” I lift my cloak and sit beside her without waiting for Eva permission. My action seems to irritate the other girl sitting in front of Eva though.
“That’s not what I mean!, I’m sure I saw you in the morning at the Academy, ah let me introduce you, this is Kana Edena, second-year student.”
“It’s nice to meet you Kana, your performance is very magnificent yesterday.” I show her my charming smile, usually girl tend to head over heels with me when I do this.
“Don’t act too familiar with me.”She curved her mouth in disdain as she looked at my robe’s color.
“Ah, forgive me Lestat, her attitude is a bit..”
“It’s fine, she’s charming in her own way.” I replied with light smile
“You’ve not answer my question earlier, how did you get here?“
“I use teleportation.” I calmly said while waving my hand calling for the lady inn.
“Ehh!!” Cried the two girls at the same time which make everyone inside the inn looking at us. Feeling their gaze, the two girls finally calm themself, and look at me.
“You can also use teleportation?” Eva said in amazed tone.
“Yeah, didn’t I tell you before.”
“You are not!” Eva slam the table and slightly bow to the other costumer for once again disturbing their meal.
“Now I tell you, so there’s no problem right.”
All of the sudden Kana put away her spoon and ask me “Did you stay in this Inn?”
“Eh?” both of me and Eva seems to be caught off guard at Kana sudden change in attitude and the way she speak.
I replied with intrigued smile “Yeah, I intend to do so” her attitude change drastically when I mention I can use teleportation magic, what a simple girl, in this world strength is indeed what matter the most, and it seems she’s one of those girl who has a weak spot for strong guy.
The Inn lady come to my side “What is your recommendation?” I ask her.
“Today recommendation is ‘Fried Garlic Ginger Venison’”
“I’ll have it then, and also a mug of the best wine you have.”
I raised my head and look at the two girls that still chewing their foods and ask “So why did you two come here? Are you skipping classes too?”
“We are here on headmaster errand. I heard you are a new student starting yesterday, and now you are skipping classes...” Kana replied shaking her head.
“Errand?”
“Yeah, you didn’t heard this morning uproar?”
“Someone steal from the academy messhall, it’s completely empty, even the dirty dishes is get stolen.” Eva Interject Kana’s words.
“Fortunately we’ve caught the culprit, he dare to make us run this kind of errand” Kana gritted her teeth.
“Really? Who is the culprit who dare to steal from our academy? I said looking at the meat juices that occasionally spill from Kana’s pink lips. ‘Ah she wipe it’
“It’s the second-year student named Eric Barnier.”
“Barnier?”
“Yeah, you know him?”
“We met at the library once.”
“But he keep denying it. he said the ghost did it. He saw a ghost come inside the messhall so he try to peek inside the hall from the window by climbing the wall. Isn’t it ridiculous right?” Kana smiled.
“Indeed, ghost is a being that we create ourself.” I took the wine that just arrived and drank from it, and then muttered to myself ‘I did creat it though.’
Finally my venison is ready in my table, I ate it while having a chat with the girls about various topics and finally part from them as they still have errand to do. I put down my spoon and fork crossing each other on my empty plate and pay for one night stay at the inn for 3 silver coin including my meal earlier.
My room is located in the second floor, I open the door with a silver key I get from the Inn lady. With a ‘Creak’ sound, the door opened revealing a king sized bed with blue blanket on it. I take off my cloak, and robe, wearing only my school uniform and drop my body on the bed. “It’s so hot here, completely different from the Academy.” I sigh while stretching my body.
I open my [Status] to see if there is any differences but it’s still the same from yesterday, all of my stat is still 20 except for my MAG and Mana.
“As I thought I still level 1, I should have kill those bandits myself. I guess you only get EXP if you kill something directly.
“My magic is indeed OP but for my defense.. one hit from veteran adventure could kill me if I’m not careful, better level up soon.” my consciousness fade from the the inn ceiling and I fall asleep.
11 pm.
Clic Clik .. Creak
[sound of door lock opening]
In the darkness, a figure peeked in through the slightly opened wooden door, seeing that I already fall asleep she come inside my room and get closer to the bed where I sleep.
Hearing a footstep getting closer and closer to me, I open my eyes and saw a red haired girl with with red eyes and skin white as snow, moonlight reflected in her face through the window which made the figure can’t be described by mere word ‘beautiful’.
“Kana?” I raised my eyebrow looking at the figure in front of me.
She brought me to her chest “Lestat, you will become mine.” She said while tightened her hug.
My face was buried in the her soft flesh, there’s a sweet scent which made me go hazy. Something boiled up from within my body.
I then wrapped my arms around her back, returning her hug and said “You can’t have me.” She was taken aback by my words and her eyes starting to get moist. She brace herself to do this despite this is her first time, so to think she would get rejected, which is a first experience for her made her feels like crying.
I then move my head closer to her ear and whisper in gentle voice “But I can have you” then I kiss her pink lips that have a trace of tears in it.
