Volume 2 Chapter 1 Serial Killer ／ I Have No Money!
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
”──Kian…”
Kian suddenly felt like someone called his name, so he stopped sewing and looked up.
However, the training ground of the adventurer’s Guild, bathed in morning light, was still empty today.
Kian was the only one there.
To be precise, it was just Kian and the ‘glasses’ sitting on the bench next to him.
’Is something wrong, Kian?’
”No, I think it was just my imagination. More importantly, it’s finished. How does this look?”
The young man held up a stylish everyday outfit adorned with a pattern of roses.
The neckline was wide open, and it was an outfit that screamed flashiness and sex appeal, but it wouldn’t be strange to wear it on a vacation by the sea.
’You should not be so casual with such ancient equipment.’
”I know I should feel sorry. But please forgive me. It originally was a women’s dress.”
Kian said this with a frown.
The equipment he get from ‘glasses’ in the Labyrinth of Roses still seemed usable but had some minor flaws.
In addition to the effect of absorbing magic power from the creatures he killed (though the amount he could absorb was minimal), he discovered that it also had the property of storing magic.
However, it looked like a long dress that a noblewoman would wear.
Walking down the main street in something like that would definitely attract the guards’ attention.
Even if he wore it in the labyrinth, passing adventurers might gossip about his “cross-dressing hobby.” It was too dishonorable and would be a huge nuisance for Serena, who was in his party.
So, he cut and sewed the fabric himself, adjusting it just enough to make it a men’s outfit.
Kian personally thought it was a wise decision.
”‘Nightshade’s’ coat is comfortable, but I was stuck wearing it all the time. Just increasing my wardrobe like this makes me happy. I can reuse the pants and boots from ‘Nightshade,’ so overall, it seems like I’ll have a stylish playboy kind of outfit.”
’You still have fabric left, are you going to throw it away?’
”There’s no way I’d waste it like that. I’ll make a scarf out of the leftover fabric… and maybe even some underwear. If I make it out of this material, I might reduce the number of times I have to scratch down there.”
’———’
’Glasses’ fell silent.
If she had a human face, she was probably staring at Kian with a dead-eyed, serious look.
Unaware of the disdain he had earned, Kian immediately decided to try on the gear he had just crafted.
”Alright… let’s see.”
A loose red Roses shirt.
The neckline was open, revealing his chest muscles and chest hair, but in East End, men often wore shirts with a wide-open chest like this.
Robert’s chest muscles were so massive, his shirt’s chest area was constantly about to tear.
”I made the sleeves a little looser, Eastern-style. It gives off a rogue vibe, but still looks somehow elegant… It’s my own work, but I think it turned out pretty well.”
’You are kind of disgusting.’
”What!?”
Kian’s eyes widened as his carefully crafted masterpiece was dismissed with one harsh comment.
Before he could respond, a high-pitched voice called out from the direction of the training grounds, “Kian!”
This wasn’t a hallucination; it was his partner, Serena, calling him.
”…!”
Kian felt his heart pounding as he heard Serena’s voice, and he couldn’t help but get an er*ction.
Objectively speaking, he was a pervert, but there was a reason why Kian got an er*ction.
Because last night, he…
”Ugh…”
Kian quickly adjusted his p*nis in his pocket and stood up from the bench with a smile on his face.
A Wolfmen girl ran towards the entrance.
She had short silver hair with a unique style, a beautiful face with a sharp look, and a fair complexion.
She wore a tight white sleeveless shirt and dark green shorts that reached her thighs, paired with long boots.
This was her usual attire, and during quests, she would wear light leather armor over it.
”Good morning, Kian.”
Serena said, her light blue eyes looking at him.
She wasn’t as busty as Aliona or Esther, but she had a decent-sized chest.
When she put her hands behind her back, her beautiful breasts naturally pushed forward.
(Ever since becoming party members, they’ve been getting closer…)
She was cool to outsiders but extremely friendly to those close to her.
This was probably a common trait among the Wolfmen race, but for Kian, who was almost 30, it was a bit dangerous as he might misinterpret her intentions.
She was just being friendly, but he couldn’t help but get an erection.
And last night…
──”Ahh♡ Ahh♡ Ahh♡”
──”Ohh…♡ Ohh♡ Ohhh♡”
──”Ahh♡ Hihi, hihi…”
While sleeping, Kian’s fingers explored her private parts, and she climaxed multiple times in a peculiar position.
Covered in her own sweat and love juices, she filled the room with a strong pheromone scent.
In the end, she submitted completely to the symbol of masculinity, accepting his thick p*nis.
Remembering this, Kian couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.
”Good morning, Serena.”
”Is that a new outfit? Did you make it yourself?”
”Yeah, I did. What do you think? How’s the craftsmanship?”
However, Kian had not spent his thirty years of rough living in vain.
With a smile, he hid his less-than-innocent thoughts and responded to her.
Serena took a step closer and began patting Kian’s upper body, her hands lightly brushing over his chest.
”So…”
”Did you… get more muscular or something? No, it’s just the clothes. It’s a bit flashy, but I think it’s good. Thieves and nobles who make a living by looting would probably wear something like this.”
”That’s a rather ambiguous assessment.”
”I just said what I saw. Or should I have sugarcoated it?”
The light blue, sharp eyes stared up at him.
Kian averted his gaze, feeling as if his dirty mind was being seen through.
”No, thank you for your honest opinion. I’ll take it into account for the next time… Yeah, so, should I make you some underwear?”
”…?”
Serena’s expression shifted to a serious one for a moment.
”Wh-what…!?”
Her face turned bright red, and she quickly raised her silver brows in surprise, clearly flustered.
”Well, I think that kind of thing is not good. I know you’re actually a playboy, but please stop with that.”
”Sorry, I didn’t mean it.”
’Who is the one saying that.’
”…I’ll correct myself. I did have some ill intent. Sorry.”
Serena grunted, her face still red, but eventually returned to her usual expressionless state.
The silver tail that had been standing on end also relaxed, and the fur was now drooping limply towards the ground.
”Well, I’ll let it slide. I’ll also have to compromise if I’m going to get along with a person like you.”
”So, are your wounds okay now?”
”Yes.”
”What did you come here for today? You got the S-rank evaluation from the previous ‘Labyrinth of Roses’ Quest, and I’ve also accumulated the necessary points for promotion. All that’s left is to take the test in 3 days.”
”To be precise, it’s the oral exam in 3 days and then a practical exam with the other successful candidates. …I know it’s time to recuperate for the exam. But… actually, I’m embarrassed to say this, but I don’t have any money.”
”Ah…”
In the Labyrinth of Roses quest, Serena had borrowed a dagger and staff from Aliona, but both were damaged in the fight against the vampire.
The dagger was bent almost in half, and the staff had been overloaded with magic power in a short amount of time, causing it to burn and snap.
The damage was irreparable, and Serena had to compensate Aliona for the full cost.
On top of that, due to the extent of her injuries, she had to seek treatment at the Guild’s healing clinic.
Most of the equipment she had been wearing would also need to be replaced.
With the end of the month approaching, when she thought about paying the rent for the inn she was currently staying at, it was clear that she was in a financial pinch.
”…If I hadn’t been so badly injured, I could’ve cut out a 3-meter section of the obsidian wall and sold it to the merchants in the market town…”
”No, that’s something that should be kept under the Guild’s control. By presenting it intact, the Guild acknowledges that we are paying our dues and taxes. In fact, weren’t our dues waived for this month?”
”Kian, you’re so serious.”
”I’m just stating the obvious…”
”Actually, I came to consult with you today because you’re so serious.”
”Sure, what is it?”
Serena smiled brightly as she prompted him.
She picked up the wooden sword that Kian had placed nearby and threw one of them towards him.
”Let’s have a sword fight, just the two of us.”
”I don’t mind…”
”But if I win, I want to stay in your room for a while. Of course, I’ll split the room cost with you.”
”Huh…”
(Does that mean Serena wants to live with me? No way, no way, no way!)
Kian furrowed his brows.
”I’m almost 30, and a girl in her mid-teens isn’t someone I should be living with.”
Seeing Kian’s flustered reaction, Serena shrugged her shoulders.
”You’re a player, but from what I’ve seen, you don’t seem to have the guts to put your hands on me… I’m a warrior before I’m a woman. I protect myself. If you have the guts to put your hands on me and risk getting your neck snapped, then go ahead and do it to me.”
”Well, you see…”
”The winner takes it all. How many silver coins do you have in your wallet now, Kian?”
”Two hundred and 89…”
Kian had been secretly retrieving the contents of the Funnelwing’s wallets──the ‘glasses’ Kian had been secretly cutting out the obsidian roses and selling them at the street stalls, and as a result, his wallet was more filled than ever before.
Serena’s eyes widened in surprise.
”What!? That much!?”
”Yeah, that’s right.”
”If I win, can you buy me a new long sword? Is that okay?”
As she spoke, Serena’s dog ears drooped, seemingly feeling a bit guilty.
The proud Wolfmen had come to ask for financial help.
They must have been in a really tight spot.
”I didn’t mean to be extravagant, but I actually have a lot more money than I thought.”
(She seems so pitiful. I should choose my words carefully so I don’t hurt her.)
”That’s only natural. You did a lot for us, fighting ghosts and escorting the Pigfoot family… You did so much behind-the-scenes work, yet your reward was just the standard Rank 7 Quest payment. You could have asked for more from me as the party leader.”
”Then, if I win this match, will you lend me some money?”
”Improving your environment will also strengthen our entire party, so I’ll lend it to you as an investment in our future.”
”Kian…!”
Serena seemed overcome with emotion as she grabbed Kian’s hands.
(Ah, with these hands, I stirred Serena’s p**sy yesterday…)
”Thank you! For everything. The world is truly made of kindness. I’m sure of it. If I win this match and borrow money, I’ll definitely pay it back.”
”So, we’re doing this match… Well, my arms were getting rusty, so this is just right.”
And so, it was decided that Serena and Kian would have a match with wooden swords.
