Chapter 82

The scene inside the tavern was mostly monotonous. People were raising their glasses for a toast, shouting cheers, or arguing loudly. Very rarely, even murder happened. The tavern was a place where rough people became even rougher, and this place was no different. The tavern we entered was, as usual, full of men. …To be precise, there were only men. No, really, there wasn’t a single woman. “….” Was that why? As soon as we opened the door and entered, we received everyone’s attention. And exactly three steps in, someone yanked me roughly. I pretended to be unable to resist and was dragged along, and I saw that it was a large man with a build like a Tsarqua. Of course, he was a bit smaller than a Tsarqua, but it was still impressive for a human to be compared to an orc, so you could say he was big enough. “L-Layla!?” As I was being dragged away powerlessly, Emily followed me, seemingly flustered. It was cute how she was trotting along with a scared face, but somehow it felt like a 1+1 deal. Like, ‘Buy this Layla and get Emily for free.’ Come to think of it, that’s not wrong. The man who grabbed me saw us like that and burst into laughter. “Pwahaha! Layla, you say? A delicious name to match her looks!” “Hehehe, you’re lucky, brother.” Ugh, the smell of alcohol. Perhaps because I was dragged in when the atmosphere was at its peak, the man’s breath reeked of alcohol. And by the way, it’s not a food name. But before I could protest, the man burst into laughter and immediately groped my chest. “Ugh…!” A sharp pain was felt as his rough hand tightly gripped my chest. It wasn’t a delicate caress but just a grab driven by desire, so it wasn’t good, just painful, but that was good. …What kind of nonsense is this? Anyway, as I let out a small moan, the men sitting at the table cheered as if it was amusing. “Hehehe, brother, this one’s a find!” “Hey, hey, what are you doing, not pouring a drink for our sister-in-law!” Listening to them, I couldn’t help but chuckle. Who decided she was a sister-in-law? I knew they were all going to get a taste equally anyway. To feign innocence for now, I turned my gaze towards the man who had pulled me in, and he burst into laughter as if he liked it. “Wahahaha! I like that look! She seems to have some spirit!” He said that and immediately handed me a glass of alcohol. And one of his companions handed a glass to Emily, who was fidgeting beside me. There were a total of eight men at the table. It seemed a bit much for two people to handle. Of course, not in a fight, but in a sexual sense. I was okay, but I wanted to make Emily deal with only one person if possible, but I didn’t know if that would be possible. “Hey, is this your first time in Crudion?” While I was worrying about that, the man asked me in a seemingly hearty tone. I didn’t dislike this tone. It somehow made me want to be compliant. But it wasn’t time for that yet. “…At least, it’s my first time meeting someone as rude as you.” “Wahahaha!” As I blocked his groping hand and spoke coldly, the man laughed even louder. Yeah, laugh some more. This is a service I’m providing to make you feel good. For this type of man, it was better to be a bit rebellious than obedient from the start. You could say they were the type who burned even hotter when conquering a feisty woman. …But, how long was he planning to stick to me? Even after I blocked his touch once, the man in front of me persistently touched me. He was groping not only my chest but also all over my body, and he was quite skilled at it. “L-Layla…” Perhaps because I had responded coldly, Emily called my name in a trembling voice and grabbed my sleeve. The moment I heard that trembling voice, I smiled bitterly inside. Come to think of it, I hadn’t considered how Emily would feel. Unlike me, who had weak strength, she was likely feeling fear in a situation like this. Being surrounded by these unfamiliar and rough-looking men as a woman was definitely a scary experience. I was used to it and confident in getting through it, but Emily wouldn’t be. Actually, it wasn’t just because she was a woman, but it was a situation that anyone would naturally find scary. I took Emily’s hand and smiled at her. “It’s okay.” “Hehehe, this young lady is easily scared, don’t worry too much? We’re gentlemen.” Saying that while scanning me and Emily with a sticky gaze, it seemed they were going to be gentlemen in a different sense. The other men at the table were the same. “…Why does it have to be at a time when that guy is here…” “…It’s not okay? It’s a good sight to see for once…” Moreover, listening to the grumbling from another table, it seemed this man was somewhat well-known. Or maybe he was just the strongest in this tavern. If so, it was half a success. I had caught a customer, and now I just needed to play hard to get and negotiate.

-Clunk.

I shook off the man’s arm that was groping my chest and pretended to get up from my seat. Even if my inner strength was gone and weakened due to the poison, my strength was in no way inferior to that of an adult man. Even if I couldn’t win in a contest of strength, I could at least push him away for a moment. “Hmm?” When I shook off his arm, the man let out an exclamation of surprise, as if slightly surprised. But that was only for a moment, and soon he put on an even thicker smile and reached out again to grab me. “Hey, where are you going?” “Let me go. I don’t want to drink with rude people like you.” Emily looked at me with a bewildered expression, probably not expecting me to play hard to get. Honestly, I also found this pretense annoying, but I couldn’t help it. I just wanted to get paid easily and have fun sex, but people’s hearts don’t work that easily, so I was doing this. There were originally stages to proceeding with a job, and there had to be a certain atmosphere for the climax to stand out even more. I didn’t need money that much in Lakers, so I gave myself freely, but now wasn’t the time for that. “We’ll pay for your drinks, so why don’t you have a drink and go?” The man looked at me with a sly smile and made a suggestion. But I looked at the men sitting around the table with a dumbfounded expression. Were they seriously trying to get away with just paying for drinks? That couldn’t be. What we wanted wasn’t the price of drinks, but money. “No thanks. Anyway, even if it’s not you guys-” “-Anyway, you probably don’t have any money, so I think it’s a good offer?” But the man looked at me with a knowing look and cut me off. What nonsense… oh, no. I’ve been had. I thought he was groping me too much, was it a search of my belongings? If I didn’t have a coin purse, it would naturally be suspicious. Still, I didn’t expect to be found out like this. “….” “If you want, we could help you out a little?” The man made a circle with his fingers and smiled slyly. When I didn’t answer, the man pulled me in again and handed me a glass of alcohol that was on the table. It was a silent question of whether I would accept the offer. If it’s come to this, well, wouldn’t it be okay? I pretended to hesitate for a moment and then drank the glass he handed me. // Originally, the villages outside the castle were not very safe, and taverns were even worse. Because there weren’t even guards at night, the taverns after sunset were like a sanctuary for thugs. Was that why? As time passed, the men’s touches towards the two women gradually became bolder. At first, they were groping their breasts over their clothes or caressing their thighs, but now it had changed to a more intimate caress, fondling the inside of their vaginas and teasing their moist flesh by inserting their fingers. Duron, the leader of the Jahn’kata mercenary group, put his hand inside Layla’s pants and fondled her soft and plump vulva. Enjoying the feel of her smooth, hairless skin, he mischievously asked as he inserted his fingers between her moist labia. “Where are you from?” “Hngh, hnnng…from Lake,rs…Haaah!?” Layla’s face was flushed red, and she let out a passionate moan as she struggled to answer his question. Thanks to the appropriate amount of alcohol and the men’s persistent caresses, her body had already been heated up for a while. Layla’s attire was disheveled to the point where it was hard to compare it to how it was at first. Her top was rolled up quite a bit, exposing not only her navel but also the curves of her breasts as her buttons were undone, and her pants were hanging on her hips, looking like they would fall off at any moment. The men of the Jahn’kata mercenary group, as well as the men at other tables, glanced at her exposed smooth waist and abdomen, admiring Layla’s body. “Haaah!? Not there, not there…Heeing!?” And, Emily was being harassed just as much. Her face was also flushed red, and she was accepting the men’s touches in the same way. In fact, Emily’s shirt buttons were undone, exposing her breasts. Emily’s breasts, which were nicely plump, had already lost their original shape and were being squashed here and there by the men’s touches. Every time the other men’s hands brushed against her pink nipples peeking out between their thick fingers, Emily shuddered and moaned. “Hnnng, haaah….” Emily was unfamiliar with and afraid of this situation. Even though she had experience as a woman, she still had the awareness of being a man in her previous life, and she had never been surrounded by men who looked so rough. As gazes filled with lust, not the friendly gazes like Tsarqua’s, scanned her entire body, a instinctive sense of disgust welled up in her heart. In her heart, she wanted to run away immediately, but Emily couldn’t. “Haaah, Emil,y….” As she stared at the face of the girl who was also disheveled and making a melting expression like her, a sense of depravity welled up in her heart. Perhaps if it wasn’t for Layla, if she hadn’t been fascinated by these feelings, she wouldn’t have even thought of coming to a place like this. “Kuh! What a joke, is this the haughty little girl from before? She’s no different from a bitch in heat?” “No, it’s because of the alcohol…Haaah!?” “Pwahaha! Is that even an excuse? You’re just a slutty whore!” “Hngh, don’t, say that…” Emily fixed her gaze on Layla, who was being harassed, and watched her. This was what she wanted. Pretending to want to help her or be with her was just an excuse. It was true that she loved Layla, but the reason she wanted to be with her didn’t come from such a bright heart. Emily wanted to see another side of Layla that she had never seen before. She wanted to see her being humiliated by men and crying like a bitch, just like now. That was painful, but also joyful. Emily herself knew that she wasn’t normal. Could this really be called love? She probably wouldn’t know the answer in the future either. With a complicated heart, Emily gently reached out and took Layla’s hand. Feeling the approaching touch, Layla also nodded slightly and took her hand, even while being harassed by the men. “…..” The gazes of the two girls, disheveled under desire, crossed in the air, and the warmth of their clasped hands was connected. The hands clasped under the table did not let go, even while the two girls’ bodies were being treated like toys. As if willingly participating in the humiliation that would continue in the future.
