Cast: Ashy (Buttercup, written by evllzx311) and Marry with Shintani.

"Give us another round, blonde!"

"Right away!"

"Here too!"

"Coming!"

"I'd like some chicken with my drink here!"

"Chicken will be done in 3 minutes, here's your drink!"

Ashy moved from one table to another. Trays and mugs filled with beer were in her hands, and she maneuvered through a sea of customers.

"Blonde, shake those hips of yours. I'll give you a tip."

"This isn't that kind of establishment, dear customer."

"Lady, how about you join us at our table? Let's have a chat."

"I'm sorry, but I can't do that. I'm working."

"Hey there, young miss. Want to have fun with this big brother?"

"I'm having enough fun already, so I must decline."

"Busty! How much would you charge for a night?"

"That's plain sexual harassment, sir. Stop, or I'll kick you out."

As Ashy brought the orders to their tables, she had to deal with all kinds of drunkards who were much of a pain in the butt. They either try to flirt with her or harass her. But she's still being friendly.

Unless...

Smack!

"This is some nice ass you've got."

...they crossed a line they shouldn't have.

Ashy's friendly smile vanished instantly. It was replaced with a cold, murderous look that made it clear what would happen next. The other customers silently cleared the way as a man was sent flying straight out of the tavern with perfect accuracy. All bones broken.

"Anyone else who wants to touch my butt?" Ashy looked around with a glare and saw some people grinning, looking unfazed by her cold gaze.

"Nah, we're good."

"It's very tempting, but I'll pass. That looks like it'll hurt a lot."

"Pain is the way to heaven, as they say. I think it's worth the try."

"Like hell! Didn't you see that man from a second ago? The blonde crippled him for good."

"Getting crippled for a smack is too much for a price."

"Yeah. Admiring it from here is more than enough. At least it's free, and we have a nice view."

"..."

Ashy was at a loss.

The regulars were tough nuts to crack and weren't in the slightest bit afraid of her. They looked like they found her to be amusing instead, casting playful looks and lecherous glances at her legs.

Ashy immediately pulled down the skirt of her uniform with flushed cheeks. Her cute reaction after realizing it had been slightly flipped was so girlish.

'Wait...'

Then, she realized. She wasn't actually a girl. She's just using this form since she's still within Luminous' territory, and there's no telling what sort of sexual harassment Luminous would do if Ashy canceled her skill and got caught, meaning she had no reason to act like a real girl since all that she needed to do here was remain in her female form.
