I Own A Brothel In Another World (Ch. 1-196)

Chapter 99 - Proper Hospitality

In the beginning, we just walk in relative silence while heading towards the meeting place. But, it doesn't stay like that for long. Marcia quite quickly starts pulling everyone into various short conversations, including of course Ghilerie and Teffith.

Even though the majority of our current group consists of people who rarely speak, for whatever reasons, be it due to their shy nature or being silent introverts, for example, she never backs down and exchanges a few words with all of us. And no one seems to be especially bothered. She is really talented at being social and it shows clearly.

I have no doubts that this quite colourful group was able to somehow become friends with each other thanks to her influence. Many of them are visibly different and it's honestly a miracle they managed to stay together for so long without any major conflicts in their ranks.

It also seems that Marcia was an important factor in Kamil at least trying to look at things differently. I honestly wasn't sure if he would ever change even slightly ever, or if he wouldn't at some point dig himself even deeper into that pit of negative emotions.

But, fortunately, things are starting to look a little better now thanks to this truly incredible girl. I hope everything will only keep moving forward just like that, without any more misunderstandings and hostility. This journey together is a great opportunity to be the first step on that new path.

Well... One thing I'm pretty sure everyone can agree with me is the fact that Marcia is very open with herself. I would say... a little bit too open. Open enough to voice her quite indecent thoughts out in the open, in the middle of a crowded street.

Many people turn their heads towards our group when they hear quite vivid descriptions of Marcia's intimate plans with the toys she has received from me, and not only. Pretty much no topic is able to make her embarrassed or ashamed to any extent. What can't be said about the four of us accompanying her.

Finally, after around fifteen minutes, we reach our destination and notice the rest of the party tending to their chosen horses. I must say, each animal looks strong and majestic like from some tale.

Fortunately, the King didn't throw any flashy caparisons on them, aiming to flaunt our affiliation, and the horses wear only the necessary equipment on their backs, like saddles and bags. Now that Shino has a sizable storage ring, they don't need as many of them as previously.

Paul comes to greet us when we get close enough.

"I see that you still like to show up early no matter which world it is, Alastair."

"Old habits die hard. But, I'm not the first one this time. Anyway, you are the leader here, right?"

He nods with a wry smile. "Damn, it still feels awkward calling your teacher by name. But yes, I ended up taking that position. Thanks to my Class, I can observe the others from a distance so it was the best choice. You are fine with that, right?"

I chuckle. "Trust me, it feels as weird to me as it does to you. And yeah, no issues here. I'll fill you in on what I can do after we depart so that you can put me wherever you think will work the best. Don't expect too much from that little show we had a few days ago. There are some limits and restrictions for me to go that far."

"Not to sound rude, but I've already considered that with just your Class's name. Still, that duel was impressive and I'm sure our party will only get stronger and safer with you around."

Marcia leans into me from the side and winks at him. "Our party will certainly get much stronger. Especially the female half." She chuckles while grazing her hand over my chest.

I roll my eyes at that. "I hope you don't expect me to sleep with everyone every three days, forgetting the fact that only one person here has gotten intimate with me before. Teffith and Ghilerie aren't like that."
