Chapter 365: Now, Time to Register into the Adventurer Guild!

“Now that we are done in here, what should we do?” wondered Ervas.
“Hm, Haru and Vampy are Rank 1, we might as well go train them in the forest later… But we also need to go register to the Adventurer Guild and… well, open the restaurant,” said Veronica.
“We could open it for you if you are busy for today,” said Gaius.
“Yeah, we can take care of most things in your place,” said Kireina.
“And it’s not like you will be gone, you can leave your clones with us,” said Ismene.
“As long as you disguise them with enough clothes… It should work,” said Anna.
“Indeed, my Phantom Clones are useful in that regard,” said Ervas.
“Mine might be too metallic,” sighed Veronica.
“Well yours are literally everywhere else, the cooking tools, the pots, the plates, even most of the metallic cups are your clones…” said Anna.
“Wait, really? So we eat over Veronica!?” asked Ditoyle.
“No, Ditoyle, it doesn’t work like that. They might be her clones, but it is not like that for her… Or so I want to believe,” sighed Jason.
“Well, I would gladly eat over Veronica-sama!” said Pekoran.
“We are used to it at this point, she’s just everywhere, peko,” said Pekorina.
“Yeah! But that’s cool!” said Amelia.
“I don’t think we really care,” said Acathea.
“Anyways, it would be ideal for the group to separate, it’s already close to being 9 AM, most people must be already gathering around the restaurant… it might hurt the reputation of the place if it doesn’t open and doesn’t attend people in time…” said Percy.
“Listen to my son, he’s right!” said Albert’s ghost.
“Yeah, I guess we should separate now, we’ll go register to the Adventurer Guild and then train a bit Vampy and Haru while completing any easy quest available to gain some merit in there, and then we’ll go to the restaurant,” said Veronica.
“Sounds good,” said Ervas.
“Alright then, see you later,” said Gaius.
“Take care!” said Ismene.
“Daddy can I stay with Ervas and Veronica?” asked Pekorina.
“Hmm, I don’t see why not,” said Pekoran.
“Oh, can we go too, mommy?” asked Amelia.
“I will go too!” said Acathea.
“Err… Well, sure thing, Ervas, and Veronica are the safest beings you could ever be with, so go ahead… But make sure to not bother them while they do adult stuff, okay?” asked Ismene.
“Okay!” said Amelia and Acathea, as they followed Pekorina, towards Ervas and Veronica.
The rest of the party walked through the streets back to the Red-Light District, while Ervas, Veronica, Percy, Pekorina, Amelia, and Acathea walked towards the Adventurer Guild.
“Oh right, I have a citizenship card, can I join the Adventurer Guild too, peko?” asked Pekorina at Ervas side.
“I don’t see why not,” said Ervas.
“Yeah, why not? I mean if we are into it at that point,” said Veronica.
“Ooooh! Can we join too?” asked Amelia adorably, as she waved her large and fluffy squirrel tail around.
“I want to join too,” said Acathea.
“I don’t know, you girls haven’t gotten citizenship registration yet…” said Percy.
“Hm, maybe we can manage somehow, let’s try at the very least,” said Veronica.
“Yeah, the VIP Cards are pretty strong, maybe we can force our way into it,” said Ervas.
“Y-You really want to break a lot of rules…” said Percy.
“I mean if we can, we’ll try!” said Veronica.
“Yeah, why not?” asked Ervas.
“Y-You really have a bad perception about how human societies work… But fine, my lords,” sighed Percy, as Albert’s ghost patted his shoulders.
The party walked through the streets as Pekorina, Acathea, and Amelia were amazed by the many buildings, people, and things to buy!
They even went through a pastry shop that sold beautiful-looking cakes, which Pekorina was drooling for.
“Ervas, can you buy me a cake?” asked Pekorina.
“Sure… But later,” said Ervas.
“Nice, peko!” said Pekorina.
“Sheesh, you got her pretty spoiled, huh? When is she becoming your girlfriend already?” asked Veronica.
“G-Girlfriend, peko?!” asked Pekorina.
“…I don’t know. Also, you should not ask things that make others feel uncomfortable,” said Ervas.
“Ahaha! Sorry, what a cold response…” said Veronica, who had expected Ervas to react similarly to Pekorina, but even now, he was still rather expressionless.
However, deep inside, he was indeed quite embarrassed.
“Also, I am just about to hit 3 years of age… Although my body has matured a lot due to my powers and Skills… I don’t think Pekorina would feel comfortable with me,” said Ervas.
“EH? N-Not at all, Ervas, peko! In fact… I am always happy with you, peko! there’s no way I would not be uncomfortable, peko… I-I don’t really mind much your age, peko, as your body and mind are already more mature than me, peko…” said Pekorina.
“Really? You do not mind? You do not find it like it’s wrong or something? Unlike Veronica, I am not ageless, so my flesh body is supposed to have an age, despite it having already matured… It is a bit strange, my current self, I mean,” said Ervas.
“Well, don’t worry, whenever you feel more comfortable with yourself we can talk more about… other stuff, peko… For now, I am happy as we are, peko!” said Pekorina.
“That’s relieving…” said Ervas.
“Muh, Ervas you said you were to marry me!” said Amelia.
“Yes I said that, I will if you still want to,” said Ervas.
“Yay! Pekorina can be your girlfriend and I will be your future wife!” said Amelia adorably.
“EH?! T-Then I am also becoming a wife, peko!” said Pekorina.
“Well Ervas also said I was becoming his wife, so you better make a spot for me!” said Acathea.
“Indeed I said so, and if you still want to I will not retract my words,” said Ervas.
“Woah you got a harem already built my boy!” said Veronica.
“I will also marry Ervas!” said Gaia, emerging out of thin air and resting over Ervas head, she looked like an adorable and little plant girl.
“If you want to…” said Ervas rather happily.
“I-I am impressed by my Lord’s ability to attract talented females, but we are here,” said Percy, showing the large and beautiful Adventurer Guild Building.
Unlike the other buildings they had visited, the Adventurer Guild was perhaps three times their size, it even had a tavern on the first floor where dozens of Adventurers gathered to eat and drink after an arduous day of completing quests for bounty.
Many Adventurers were getting in and out, and Ervas, Veronica, and the rest, we’re amazed by the amount of variety between Adventurers, not only humans, elves, or dwarves were present, but also beast-kin of all types, dragon-kin, demons such as Banshee, and more.
It was such a colorful view, so many diverse parties gathering together, it was truly a sight to behold.
All of them different and having their own special abilities, yet complementing each other, this was truly what an Adventurer Party should be, Beast-kin and Demons had amazing innate abilities, and if they were to be applied as an Adventurer, it was obvious that they would become useful.
Although Ervas and Veronica noticed that only the most humanoid races were in here, and there were still some races that were seen as outcasts, too monstrous, or dangerous, such as Arachne, Ghouls, or Lamia.
“Here we are, to become Adventurers!” said Veronica.
“I can’t wait, peko!” said Pekorina.
“Let’s get in,” said Ervas.
The party quickly walked in as they noticed several glares staring at them immediately…
“Oi, those are new or something?”
“Yeah never seen em’…”
“Some newbies! Although that woman looks too mature to be a newbie, right? She got a sharp gaze,”
“Look at her eyes and skin… and her hair too! Is she a Vampire?”
“No, Vampires are monsters of the night, if she’s walking a day, she must be a Dhampir, a half-vampire.”
“That other boy… is he the same? Or just an albino?”
“I don’t know, he got a horn, and wolf ears… crimson eyes and pale white skin… Odd,”
“Maybe he’s a Dhampir with some weird parents,”
“He looks funny…”
“Wait, Rabbit-kin!?”
“And Squirrel-kin too! You rarely see those in here, they don’t live around Seashore…”
“Indeed, they’re such cuties…”
“Oi they’re little girls, keep your eyes off them…”
“Shut up I do whatever I want.”
“But that Dhampir woman is… so beautiful…”
“Indeed… I am… Should I ask her on a date?!”
“No, stop you, idiot, you’re getting rejected!”
Many of the men were surprised over the beauty of the girls, including Veronica, who they eyed around as if drooling, her beauty was certainly outstanding, to the point of seemingly resembling a goddess… although in a way, she already had divine properties, so their imagination was not wrong.
Suddenly, one of the men talking walked towards Veronica!
Veronica glared at him, as Percy put himself in between.
“Oi shrimp move over, I want to talk with the beauty there…”
“Sorry but my lady has no interest in talking with someone like you, sir,” said Percy.
“Don’t worry, Percy, I can handle him myself,” said Veronica, gently petting Percy’s shoulder, as she walked towards the man, he seemed like a generic stud with a strong and muscular body, a bald head, and a scar over his head, he looked rather shady for an Adventurer.
“Damn you’re even hotter in person! So, sweetie, wanna go out with my party? We are looking for a strong and pretty girl to join us and give us… some fun. We’ll pay you well don’t worry,” said the man, moving his hands towards Veronica as she stopped him with her finger.
“Sorry but I have to refuse, I am currently going to register first,” said Veronica.
“How about after you do you come to join us for some drinks? Eh, why don’t you bring those three little cuties too? Leave these two brats and come have some fun with us,” said the man, getting Veronica angered at last due to calling Ervas a shrimp.
“How about you go fuck yourself?” asked Veronica, hitting the man’s crotch with her metallic heels.
Smack!
“Gyaaahh…!” cried the man, falling into the ground.
All of the men present, even if they did not receive the hit, felt it deep within their souls, and instinctively protected their testicles.
“Man, that gotta hurt…” said Percy.
“Aaagghhhh…! AAAAHHH! Aahaha… Aggggghhhh…. You fucking… whore! Aaagh! My fucking balls! Call a medic! Heal my fucking balls! Ooof…! Holy fucking shit! YOU’LL PAID FOR THISSSSSS…!”
“Sure thing stud, come try me any time you want,” said Veronica as she walked back with her party towards the assistant waiting for her, a young dwarf man who was sweating continuously after seeing such a scene unfold…
“W-Welcome to the… Adventurer… Guild…” he muttered.
Veronica noticed that several women were giving her thumbs up as if the guy she hit already had a pretty bad reputation all around.
