Chapter 351 – Intermission ~ the Taste of the Beast Is Engraved on the Female Body ~
“…What? Do you think that store is out of business?”
Among the three male adventurers on their way to the adventurer’s guild, one man pointed to a shop and tilted his head.
As if demolishing a building, a building covered in white paint to close the door and draw a magic circle for building demolition.
A clothing store known as the best place to find cheap and decent clothes in Ladia. It was Morenga’s clothing store.
“‘Thank you for loving Moren Tailor’… Is that so? Wasn’t this a pretty business place?”
“I heard that the store has been going on for quite some time… Did the owner of the store die?”
“Sorry. Those clothes over there, these were the perfect clothes to take and throw away while doing quests.”
The clothes sold at the ruined Moren Tailor Shop were not simply favored by commoners.
Thanks to the cheap and decent fabrics, the Moren Tailor Shop was often visited by adventurers as well for casual use.
The news that such a place was ruined came somewhat unfortunately to them.
“Umm… I’ve been here often because the wife here is beautiful. I haven’t seen you since when.”
“Crazy. I had my eyes on this young married woman.”
“You’re like an ignorant bastard who doesn’t know what a married woman looks like. You don’t deserve to talk to me!”
“Shut up you criminal! To walk the path of crime while leaving true love, Soon-ae! I will tell everyone in the guild!”
“Looking at the others, both of you shut up.”
Three men exchanging trivial jokes and walking away from a shop that has already gone bankrupt.
It was a bit unfortunate, but the bankruptcy of a clothing store was not big news to them.
They just wished that the next store they entered would be a store that would be of help to them.
The closure of Moren Tailor Shop, which had been going on for generations, left only a little bit of regret for people.
The three men erased the Moren Tailor Shop from their heads and walked towards the guild management office.
The three men looked at the guild management office at the same time and sighed.
“…Ha. I don’t like going to the guild office these days…”
“…Isn’t that a bit like that? As soon as I walked in, I felt a bit stuffy…”
“On top of that, the atmosphere is a bit like that these days… Shameless ThatWomenBecause…”
Bonamana, the guild management office I’m going to ThatWomenWill be gathered
Unspecified number of women whose faces change every day.
Thinking of the atmosphere and atmosphere they created, I was reluctant to go to the guild management office even though I had business to do.
“I hope our guild members aren’t like that… The atmosphere of those women is a bit scary…”
“Even in the middle of a quest, it seems like it would be a bit stuffy.”
“I really don’t understand the fashion of women these days.”
Hoping that the women they knew would not belong to that group, the three men headed to the guild management office.
************************************************** ************************************************** *******
The place called the guild management office is always noisy with various adventurers.
Quest counseling, light meals, friendship among adventurers.
This place, where you can hear information about adventures just by sitting still, was a place where there were not even adventurers, but even idlers watching other adventurers like unemployed people.
As this is a place where people gather, fights between adventurers are commonplace.
Among them, the quarrel between female adventurers and male adventurers was a kind of trivial quarrel that could be seen almost every day.
“It’s dizzy, you idiots!!”
However, the recent quarrel between female adventurers and male adventurers, which corresponds to that trivial quarrel, felt a little different from before.
A childish confrontation between the two groups, as if children were divided into boys and girls and fighting each other.
It wasn’t that they were pretending to be each other, but it was nothing more than a subtle prank caused by gender differences.
But at some point, the voice of the subtle prank began to change little by little…
Lately, sharp quarrels have occurred quite often, as if each other would soon take up arms.
“Oh shit…! Those girls! Did you guys even pay for the charter at the kwanliso!?”
“Oh, the smell… I can’t breathe, really. Maybe open a window…”
“What on earth are you sucking at that kind of smoke? It just sounds dizzy.”
“I smoked it once, and I can see why the old king banned it. If you’re trying to make something like that popular again, what the hell is the lord thinking?”
Men coughing and opening windows as if the air in the building was stuffy.
All the men were glaring at the group of women gathered opposite them.
I don’t know why, but strange female adventurers with a similar atmosphere.
Even though they weren’t even in the same guild, the reason they felt similar was because of their heavy makeup and overly revealing clothes.
The exposure itself is still somewhat understandable.
In some cases, the clothes and armor of adventurers are made with the minimum area to cover the area that cannot be covered by magical treatment because they use extremely rare materials.
No matter how adventurous they were, they were women who wanted to be beautiful, and there were quite a lot of people who secretly used such revealing clothes to decorate themselves.
However, they are simply not like that now.
Rather than decorating themselves with cheap clothes mixed with expensive armor with a small area, they decorated themselves with clothes that seemed to be exposed from the beginning.
Along with such exposure, the appearance of the girls exuding sexual energy with thick makeup that was only uncomfortable for adventurers did not look like adventurers at all.
A few of them even got vulgar-looking tattoos on their exposed thighs or shoulders.
The women who showed off their lewdness and smoked cigarettes in a friendly way even though they were from different guilds.
The gathered female adventurers looked at the men who rebelled against them with a mocking expression and exhaled cigarette smoke.
“Whoa… Really, noisy like piglets.”
“It’s as loud as cigarette smoke. What are you so pathetic about?”
“I’m afraid who isn’t a bunch of insincere boys. It seems that your sense of smell is also ineffective.”
“Why don’t you know the taste of this good tobacco? They’re not like little kids…”
“Yeah… I don’t smoke, but it doesn’t smell bad though…”
As if looking at a being inferior to themselves, sharp gazes shed light on the men.
Even women who don’t smoke look like they don’t understand why they react like that.
The reaction between men and women, which are so different, as if they are talking while breathing in different smoke.
The men, who were the only victims, frowned as if they were dizzy and complained to the women.
“If you want to inhale that disgusting smoke, go somewhere else by yourselves! There are many places where you can smoke other than here!”
“Did you really pay the charter? It’s not even a non-smoking place, so why go somewhere else?”
“We are also adventurers who are qualified to use the management office, right? Will you stop meddling?”
“Mr. Ha… Why did Yeongju make all of Radia smoke-free…”
The reaction of the male adventurers now was not a reaction that only came from adventurers.
Restaurants, cafes, bars, and even places like theaters where various theatrical stages are held.
In all parts of Ladia, the provision of ashtrays for smokers has been made compulsory by law.
Smokers were still in the minority, but because of that law, cigarette smoke from smokers could be encountered everywhere.
The smoke was increasing day by day, and the non-smokers in Ladia could hardly avoid the smoke.
AcceptCan’tThereThe growing dissatisfaction of men was not simply a problem of adventurers.
“Ah… I’m so dizzy I think I’m going to vomit…”
“What? Is this a pleasant cigarette smoke? Pooh. Are you sick?”
No matter how much they protested, the attitude of the female adventurers did not change.
Enraged by the attitude, a man approaches the smoking crowd and smashes the table to protest, but…
“Get out! You fucking smokers!”
“Get out of here! I can see you all glancing at my legs from earlier, right?”
“What, what!? No, fuck, when will I…!”
“Gigkick♡ This bastard must have gone crazy. Are you standing?”
“What, is that the only thing standing? You don’t even notice?”
“Puhuh. Somehow~ You don’t know the taste of an adult because you have such a pitiful thread.”
“Can you date a woman like this? Can you lend me a hand, kid?”
“Ugh, ugh…! These, these years…! Aaaaang!”
In exchange for that protest, he became the object of teasing from the women, and he had no choice but to run away with tears in his eyes, suffering a great heartache.
“…Hey. Ena… Why are you like this…”
“Oh what I’m a guild member like Amman, but can you stop talking to me unless you’re doing a quest?”
“Lina-san. You weren’t like this…”
“You are meddling with what you know? You’re not even a parent, so don’t try to meddle like an old man.”
“…Hey. Let’s just get out It’s dirty, so I should avoid it, really…”
“What. Is that a real thing too? Goodbye kid~”
Among the men who are fed up with the shameless attitude of the women, those who can’t stand it escape the prison camp.
Only men whose pride has been hurt because they have business or the feeling of losing just sit in their seats mumbling.
Female adventurers look at such men like evil beasts and giggle.
…However, contrary to their attitude, the girls here were not yet ‘beasts’.
Their attitude toward men right now is nothing more than a beastly instinct created by the drug that the beast sprayed them with.
That fact, no one gathered here could know.
“I’ve been~. …What? Cana. The atmosphere of the adventurers on the restaurant side is a bit strange… What’s up?”
“Ah. Sera. That’s what…”
The guild management office where the intense atmosphere subsided for a while.
At the guild management office, which had become quiet, Sarah, an office worker with the highest reputation among adventurers, entered with an envelope in her hand.
Thanks to her soft smile and her kind demeanor, she not only melts the hearts of male adventurers, but female adventurers also like her. Lanet Sarah.
Sera, who had heard from Kana, her close friend, what had happened just before, tilted her head and breathed in the air inside the prison camp.
“Mmmm… Actually, I don’t think it smells too bad either…”
“Right? This subtle chestnut flower-like scent is a bit burnt, but doesn’t it feel more comfortable than before?”
“I know. I don’t really want to smoke myself, but I don’t think it’s enough to stop people from smoking.”
“Does it feel a little different for men? I don’t understand why this smell is disgusting. Oh, of course, cleaning up spilled cigarette ash is a bit annoying.”
“Whoops. But these days, wizards are taking care of it. Then it’s fine.”
The office staff at the guild management office, all female.
It wasn’t that he didn’t choose men, but even if men didn’t have talent, they were attracted to adventurers.
Even if you’re not an adventurer, men’s psychology is that they prefer to be an artisan rather than an office worker.
Thanks to that, the clerks at this camp, which only had women, would gather and chat like this when they had free time.
While they were gathering and chatting, another office worker approached Sarah after seeing the envelope in her hand.
Having known her Sera for quite some time, she chuckled teasingly at her after holding her Sera in her arms.
“Sera~. Did you finally get a call from ‘that person’?”
“Yes? Huh? What is it? Are you that person?”
“Ah! By any chance, the prince of Sera I heard about last time!?”
“What!? Wait, are you a prince? What is it? I’m hearing this for the first time!?”
“Oh my God, somehow…! When I asked why good adventurers refuse to confess, Sera, you…!”
“Ah, ah! Not to sleep! I’m not a prince, really!”
Sarah shook her hand in embarrassment and looked resentfully at her friend who had embraced her.
At the urging of those around her, Sera cleared her throat as if she couldn’t help it.
Then, lifting her envelope, she announces to her colleagues the long-awaited news.
“My fiancé, who went on a long-term expedition, is finally coming back!”
The look on her face, she was wearing a smile that looked more delighted than ever.
