Finishing Bills at The Inn
Chapter 29: Finishing the Bills at The Inn
It was dawn and Lorist was training with his upper body open in the courtyard. Currently, he was practicing one of the core fundamental teachings of the Aquametal Technique, the 18 Position Wild Tiger. While its name sounds quite traditional and awkward, it is a series of extremely fatal unarmed combat moves. Although learning the basics is easy, actually training in movement is difficult. This style seeks to condense the essence of the tiger's movement into 18 positions, such as when a tiger descends from a mountain, stalking its prey, engaging in battle and going in for the kill.
In addition, the other two basic foundations of the Aquaheart School were the 18 Aquametal Sword Positions and the 18 Wave-walking Movements. The first was a set of 18 basic sword moves while the second was a set of movement techniques that increased one's footwork emphasizing on the coordination of one's perception, mind and body.
According to his grandfather in his past life, the Aquametal School came from the Five Phases School of the Southern Song dynasty. One of their ancestors considered the school's teachings too complicated and had created a new series of simplified techniques with its main inspiration of the water and metal phases, thus forming the new Aquametal School. The principle behind the teaching of the Aquametal School was for the practitioners to be sharp like metal knives, to have an unbeatable power, as well as to be unstoppable and unrelenting like a stream of water. It remained that way until the post-revolutionary era in China during the 1910s, when firearms and cannons began to gain popularity in the country, when the elders of the Aquametal School decided to reverse those principles and make the art style as sturdy as a mountain that even lightning could not fog and attack explosively as the power of a waterfall.
Involved in his training, Lorist repeatedly executed 18 forms consecutively for three times to the point when his body nearly let out steam before he returned to a neutral position to wipe his sweat. Training in martial arts really served as a great warm-up activity in the morning; his skin was flushed with improved circulation while his bones clinked and loosened as he prepared to take a bath.
A voice sounded from the back yard door. Lorist turned to look and saw Els clapping as he walked over.
"Why did you come?" Lorist asked while looking around to see if anyone else was coming with him.
Els knew why she turned her head to look like that and said furiously, The damn “Bokah doesn't want to come along. After hearing that you were only Iron rank, he said that he was unwilling to learn swordsmanship from you. He even boasted that he would be able to defeat you the moment he reached Iron rank in two years. That little fellow was really no good to him … "
"Hehe," Lorist laughed. He, on the other hand, did not care how others saw him. He only accepted Els' request to take a disciple because he owed Els a favor. In reality, he was happy that the other party had saved him from trouble.
“Your new place is pretty good, if it's just a little too quiet. Why don't I send two girls who serve here to serve you? They can take care of the house during the day and warm your bed at night. I'll make sure they serve you however you want! Don't worry, they will definitely be beautiful, I assure you, ” Els said as he walked around the lounge, checking out Lorist's new home.
“Mute. I need it to be quiet and calm whenever I train with the sword. I can't afford to have two women barking as I prepare for the duel. Don't blame me for losing during the duel when the time comes, ” Lorist said as he turned down Els' offer.
"Then we'll leave this for another day. Dueling is your priority now. Oh, what were you training in the yard? I think I saw a magical beast before my eyes for a moment there, ”was Els, curious.
“Oh, that's my family's body workout method. My ancestors analyzed the ways in which magical beasts fought and produced a series of movements that mimicked their shapes to improve body coordination and reaction ability, further enhancing the practitioners skills in unarmed combat. ”
"Oh," Els stopped asking when she understood that this kind of training method was usually a hereditary family secret that could not just be told to others.
"Is there anything you should do here at the academy this early in the morning?" Ask Lorist.
"Huh, don't talk about it .. How is it still morning? Yesterday, I brought some beer and meat to see the fat, but he put away my beer and brought a barrel of fruit wine he said had just been brewed. The wine really felt very thick and thick .. With him recommending it to me so enthusiastically, I couldn't really let him down and didn't drink anything, so I downed a few cups before getting drunk. I woke up this morning heavily intoxicated and only managed to relieve the drowsiness after drinking tons of water. Even now I still feel tired .. Charade was out early in the morning and left me a memo asking us to go to the Red Grace Inn later tonight to talk about betting operations, "remember Els with a little frustration. .
Lorist tried his best to hold back his laughter when he heard Charade say that he had found a number of berry plants in a corner of the newly acquired Yellow Ribbon Academy that felt strong and sour, which he had discovered, they were left alone from the prey hands of the students in the academy. However, he was like a man who came to the treasure chest and chose all of them to try to brew them into alcohol. It was a pity that his brewing skills were poor and the liquor he produced tasted rather bad; lorist immediately spat it out after taking a sip. Who would have thought Els could drink those few cups .. Lorist really respected her for her intestines.
"Well, at first I wanted to take you out for a drink with us, but Charade said that you've been busy enough to move your things around these two days and want to let you rest .." lamented Els.
Sol, the reason he didn't invite me was because he was afraid that I would collect the rest of the gold coins he owed me! For the past two days, for fear of being asked to pay the rest of the money for the books, Charade tried to avoid a face-to-face meeting with Lorist and have someone else tell Lorist about certain things in his place. Lorist decided to go to Charade's office and retrieve the books the day after.
"Oh, and Louise asked me yesterday if you still want to have a room in the inn reserved for you. And, you better collect the reward money for the request that you have completed during the expedition to the Relic Islands. He has also collected your clothes from the Laundry and packed them from you and has also asked me to tell you not to forget your promise to him, ”remembered Els as she recalled her visit to the inn the day before.
Lorist thought for a while but still could not remember what he promised Louise. Turning around, he asked, “A promise? Why don't I remember something like that? Do you know what this is about? "
"How do I know? You just have to go there to find out. I really can't think of anything else right now, that headache is killing me. Locke, let me sleep on the sofa for a while .. ”Unable to endure, Els collapsed on the sofa and instantly fell into a sleeping embrace.
……
At night, the Red Grace Inn is filled with a festive atmosphere thanks to all the customers who gather there to enjoy a good time and enjoy the delicious food.
With a large cup of blackcurrant beer in his hand, Lorist sat down at the table and chatted together with the old man Charlando.
“Nineteen requests were met with total prizes reaching 139 gold Ford, 13 large silver and 4 small silver. The Inn will collect a 5% charge of the 7 Gold Ford as well as 5 large silver and 3 small silver for your expenses and room rent, which makes you own 132 Gold Ford, which makes you a Gold Ford, 8 Big silver and 1 small silver. Oh, and, I almost forgot about the 18 gold coins Els owed you for Terrence Donkey's whip. Will you leave it here in your tab or do you want to pick it up now? "
"I'll leave it for you now. Seeing them drinking cheerfully, I might have to pay for their room if they were too drunk to return. Just count the expenses for the night on my tab, lest Els cause more trouble for you by skipping the payment, please, ”lorist said as he pointed towards the three tables in the corner of the inn where Els and the others from the academy were seated. . Charade drinks by leaving after hearing that he does not need to pay a single coin for the night.
“Well, it's okay for me. How's operation? ”Tanya Charlando.
“For now, it has been decided that I will get a 20% cut with the other 10% going to be sent to Charade and the others from the academy. Reducing costs and bribes for other innkeepers and syndicate bosses, Els would get about 30% of the profits as well. I really hope that I will be able to make a little bit this time so that I can buy myself some property in town just in case. Honestly, Char, you know I don't have high ambitions or anything. However, I really have no say in this as all of that was the fault of that old bastard's academy head. Who knows how else he will exploit me in the future .. I better start saving and plan to leave the academy. I graduated from there a long time ago. At the very least, I can make a decent living by collecting rent if I have some real estate in town .. "Lorist sounds like he's a little drunk, ' he said, recalling how he casually spoke of the hidden desire in his heart.
“If you really think that staying in the academy is annoying, you might as well get out of there. Locke, given your abilities, you are much better off as a full-time mercenary, living freely without being subjected to the whims of others. Just look at the income you get from a trip to the Relic Islands. That alone should amount to over 60 Ford gold after deducting your costs. As long as you do something like that once a year, it is more than enough. Or, you could always get some close friends and form a mercenary troupe. ”Charlando had the same opinion that the academy would go too far by making Lorist fight all those duels without first discussing them with him.
Lorist laughed heartily at how Charlando was still fixated on the idea of reforming his mercenary group and subconsciously pushed his hopes to him. “Hehe, man, things aren't as simple as they seem. While being a mercenary certainly allows one to live freely, it is also not an easy life, having to camp in the wild and what not. Moreover, it was much riskier to conduct such an expedition compared to the expedition organized by the academy. Moreover, did you know that I am a dual ranked Gold instructor in the academy? I was paid 30 Ford gold a month there while Instructor Klaude, whose salary was the second highest in the academy, only got 20. I can only force myself to follow the old plan providing the benefits I enjoy by becoming an academy instructor. Do you think I would be so willing to part with a monthly salary of 30 gold coins? ”
"Oh, right, I heard you proposed to Louise when I left? I haven't congratulated you both. I'll definitely get a nice present for you during the ceremony. Then again, why do you want to settle down all of a sudden? I think you've decided to live the rest of your life by yourself, "Lorist told Orlando.
"Well, nothing big. I suddenly felt that it would be very lonely to live my old years alone. Also, Louise had been working in the inn for over ten years .. Thinking that the 18-year-old girl since then had turned 28 … Given that her parents had died and how she was unwilling to return to live with her brother's family, she planned to continue working at the inn. That's when I decided that we might get married, so I proposed to her and she accepted right away. Oh, I remember that he said that he said that he had affairs with you and was waiting for you in the room you rented upstairs. Come on, it will definitely be something good, ” said Charlando as he winked at Lorist a few times with a strange expression.
"What the fuck is this with your face?" Lorist finished the rest of his beer and headed for the stairs.
Then again, the old Char had no idea that this trip to the Relic Islands also did nothing to lose. The animal skins I brought back were not purchased from others but were something I had hunted and collected myself. I bet he didn't know that I could easily handle those high-level beasts ... Hmm, which room else? Why did Louise see me? I really don't remember.. Lorist pondered these thoughts as he climbed the stairs and examined the passageway.
This one, Lorist thought as he rubbed his face before knocking on the door.
Upon entering the room, she discovers that there is an exciting young woman in the room besides Louise.
Seeing Lorist enter, Louise exclaimed happily, "Locke, she's the girl from my village whom I told you about the day before. Molly here will be the girl serving the inn from today onwards. This is actually the first time he's relaxed, okay? ”
Lorist suddenly felt stupefied as he recalled his conversation with Louise the other day. It seemed that she did not directly reject the offer and Louise regarded silence as yes. Almost fainting, Lorist thought that it could not help now that they had come this far. Otherwise, Louise would berate him for stingy paying two very few gold coins.
"Um, nice to meet you .." said Lorist to the girl with a slightly flushed face. The girl examined Lorist from top to bottom boldly before smiling and nodding shyly, clearly satisfied at the man who would be the first Lorist.
Louise clapped her hands and said, “Alright, I won't bother you now. The shower is ready. Molly, make sure you give Locke a nice time and don't forget what you've learned at the temple. Use all the techniques to please him and he will reward you for it. ”
After Louise left, the round-faced Molly gracefully invited Lorist to go to the bathtub as she took off all the clothes from her. Just as Lorist was about to enter the bathroom, he suddenly recalled something and took out a small bottle of his clothes which contained a mysterious red liquid and drank it all down.
"What did you just drink?" Lorist asked, curious.
"This is Elixir Mishla" Molly replied.
"Oh," Lorist replied, already knowing what the liquid was for.
Mishla, the Goddess of Desire and Pleasure, is the youngest daughter of the Solar War God Singwa and the Bloodmoon Goddess Sufanna who is famous for her capricious temperament. Legend has it that he lived in a paradise filled with handsome men and beautiful women who lived their lives to the fullest there without worry or care. It is believed that those who pray to Mishla will enter that heaven and obtain a blissful eternal life after their death.
To allow Mishla believers to have fun in their flesh desires without worry, the goddess herself created a potion that allows a woman to enjoy the pleasures of the flesh without being . If someone who has used elixir wants to give birth once more, a different herb can be purchased from the temple to restore fertility to one's body three months after consuming it.
However, Elixir Mishla has no effect on those who have given birth before. This herb has helped Mishla gain a large following, and made excellent use of the temple of the goddess to become one of the richest temples on the continent of Grindia.
"Why did you decide to become a serving girl?" Lorist asked, lying on the bed with both of his hands propping his head up on the pillow, watching the girl take her hardness into the middle of her own gentle body.
"Okay, pain ..." The girl let out a soft cry as she sat there, tensing. He started moving after resting for a while.
"I …. I want to get ... 20 gold coins for .. buy ten acres of farmland ... in my village ... That would be, a-so my dowry .. "answered the girl, ' she said, stuttered as he struggled to move. The pain slowly faded and the pleasure immediately took over, causing him to let out an involuntary shout of satisfaction.
Lorist also gradually lost the fun as he had not touched another woman since the last time he had spent a night with the young mistress was about a year ago. After te by the movements of the young lady, she got up to push her down and engaged in a rude and passionate interaction …
The next morning, Lorist woke up refreshed and energized and came down to order a full breakfast. After spending many nights doing such feisty activities, he was ready to eat and recover his stamina. That's when Charlando took him the bill yesterday …
Sol ... Els, you better be careful .. thought Lorist while gritting his teeth.
After hearing that Lorist was going to pay the night before, the gang stopped drinking blackcurrant beer and instead ordered two bottles of fruit wine!
Sheesh, that fat is really too far …
Charade even brought a barrel of beer and two bottles of fruit wine home with him after breakfast …
Impossible .. I'm sure Terman is not that type of person …
Lorist could not imagine someone like Terman asking to spend the night with two girls after he got a little drunk.
That's it . I don't cover other people's bills anymore …
