Chapter 128 This Is The Norm (*R)
Honestly, I was quite surprised when Odeta’s group actually did exceptionally well in their group fight.
She coordinated the fight as a proper leader and knew how to command her team well too, positioning and directing them to places they need to be and making quick decisions on the fly.
Her opposing leader attempted the same tactic as that Travis guy’s group earlier with one guy going straight for a shield bash to collapse their front line.
Odeta was quick to move to support her shield bearer and she instructed her spear user to attack the opponent’s shield user from his blind spot, knocking him out of the match.
With one of their opponent’s shield users down, Odeta gave the instruction for her team to push forward to maintain the pressure, forcing her opponent’s sole shield user to stand against Odeta’s team’s charge.
The enemy team’s leader, who happened to choose the spear as his weapon, tried to support his shield bearer by joining him in the front line.
That proved to be a mistake as Odeta easily trapped his panic spear thrust by stepping on it and smashed the pommel of her longsword into the leader’s abdomen.
While the boy was reeling from the strike, Odeta slashed her sword across his chest, hard enough to cause him to fall flat on his back and roll away onto the other side of the field.
Despite having the numerical superiority, Odeta still proceeded cautiously by having her team encircle the last three members of the other team, slowly moving in to finish them off.
Even though she could have easily finished the last three members off herself, she let her team work together to bring them down while she covered for any mistakes they might make, making sure no one on her team was eliminated.
I’m guessing she learned those skills from her sister since Ardi has experience in leading a Mercenary group. The older Amrap must have taken Odeta under her wing and taught her the basics too.
I wonder why Odeta would join this basic class though? I know there isn’t an advanced class for this but I’d have thought she would have taken another class in place of this one.
Then again, she might not have known what the contents of the class were and simply thought she would learn more by coming here.
Her team was declared the winner as soon as the opposing team’s last member fell, the Amrap receiving various praises from her teammates and peers.
Once she was released from the crowd, she immediately came to me with a satisfied smile on her face, “How was it, sister Aster?! Did I do good?”
I nodded, “You did really well, so good that I think you might be the best in this class.”
Her smile got wider and she thumped her chest with a fist, “Wahaha! That’s why you can leave things to me, sister Aster! I’ll protect you!”
I chuckled at her words and patted her head as thanks.
The rest of the class proceeded as normal but no one else stood out with most groups struggling to even form a proper strategy for their team to fight together.
Instructor Henry seemed to have already expected this and merely gave each team examples and explanations of how they should improve.
Surprisingly, Odeta told me that she would not be able to follow me back home after school today since she had to go back to her dorm room to tell the person in charge about the new arrangements where she would primarily stay at my place.
That left me unexpectedly alone until I returned back home.
Naturally, that meant that I should take this time to go and check out the Guild in the commoner’s district.
Just for a quick peek! Nothing more!
Changing out of my dress with the help of my shadow summons, I quickly donned on my normal armour before making my way to the Guild in question. I don’t exactly want to stand out after all.
Besides, I could also take this chance to see if the quests offered there were different compared to the other branches.
I found the place easily enough since all I had to do was follow the people that looked like Dungeoneers and Mercenaries who were all headed to the Guild after finishing their quests for the day.
Entering after a group of Mahuns, I immediately looked at the bar section to see if there was anything going on over there.
It was definitely more crowded in this branch as compared to any other branches I’ve seen before and the bar was a rather boisterous one.
Plates clinked and mugs were thrown back as the patrons drank, ate and laughed inside there.
Honestly, nothing seemed to look out of place though?
Ah… Was Mary just playing a trick on me all this while?
Huh… If only I had known… But why would Mary even want to–
I stopped myself since I just saw something that caught my full attention.
“Slurp… Slurp… Sluurrrp~”
A man was sitting with his back against the table and his legs spread apart, his trousers pulled down to his ankles. Kneeling in between his legs however, was a woman that was sucking away on his cock like it was the most natural thing to do.
Just in case, I double checked their stats and neither of them were an Off-Worlder, so there were none of those lewd boons or banes in effect to influence this scene.
Right then, another male and female Mahun walked past me while talking to each other.
“Ugh… There’s so many people… I told you we should have come back earlier…”
“Well, it can’t be helped. You want to just go to the bar while we wait?”
“Yeah, sure. Could we have sex while waiting?”
“Unnn… Sure. I’m a little horny too.”
I swivelled around to watch the two Mahuns head off to one of the empty tables right in the centre of the bar section of the Guild.
The man ordered some drinks from a passing waitress while the girl was already busy with stripping her own armour.
She only took off her bottoms before she bent over the table, revealing her glistening wet pussy for all to see. Except no one even bothered to look and the only person who paid attention was her partner who had taken his pants off in record time.
Without so much as a warning, the man thrusted his cock into his partner’s pussy and started pounding away without a care in the world.
One other guy actually came up to them, “Hey, could I do it with you too?”
The girl scowled at him, “Fuck off, I’m not that kind of girl. Go get yourself a prostitute or something, jerk.”
Her companion also frowned at him although he never stopped his hip thrusts, “Yeah. Go find your own girl, damnit.”
So public sex is ok but there’s still the idea of exclusivity, so it’s not like you can just go up to anyone and start fucking them whenever you like. Not unless you are the type of person who would disregard another person’s opinions and start raping them…
Now that I knew what to look for, I also started noticing the number of people who were actually having sex while inside the room.
There were the trio of girls who were busy fingering each other in the corner, the futa who was sucking off another futa just a few tables down from the lesbians, the woman who was riding the man that was lying on the table and also that futa who was railing another girl against the wall.
Sure, there were a number of people who were openly leering at the scene but they did nothing else other than watch, as though they were simply watching a street performance.
Right as I was still trying to comprehend the sight, I felt a tap on my shoulder and I turned around.
In front of me was a female Mahun with a rather attractive appearance whom I assume was a Mercenary judging by the armour and weapons she was carrying.
“Hi, are you also waiting for a Guild receptionist?” She asked while pointing to the long lines of Guild members queuing up at the counters.
I thought she was asking that just so that she knew she could line up in front of me so I told her I wasn’t.
She clapped her hands together, “Perfect, you’re a futa right? How about we go over there and have a round? My pussy’s been aching for a good futa cock to fill me up.”
I tried my best to keep my face neutral, “Sorry, I’m not interested…”
“Ah, I see. Guess I’ll have to find someone else then.”
She then turned around and walked off, not showing any signs that she was upset by my rejection at all.
So those kinds of interactions are normal too huh…
I think I’ve seen enough… I’ll just go back home and keep this thing in mind…
Who knows? Maybe in the future, I would also be part of that scene with my own girls?
But for now… I do have an appointment to keep with a certain maid back at home.
