Hey OP,

“That would be very kind of you Wilhelm, is there anything you require of us?” “Measurements and a quick conversation while doing so.” “A conversation? What for?” “If you make custom arms and armor, you need to know the person you are making it for. A weapon or armor that fits the user's personality, not just body makes it all the more effective.” You’re still a little confused, but he is the master smith, you should probably just let him do his thing. “If you excuse us, my Queen, we shall be heading to my smithery.” The Queen is staring past you all. Just staring. *staaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrreeeee* You loudly snap your fingers. *SNAP* She bounces back to reality, “Ahh! Yes, you do that Wilhelm!”

“Welcome to my humble abode, ” The smith says as he guides you all into his shop. Ornate weapons and armors hang from the walls, finely crafted weapons made of glass and embedded jewels. The smell of smoke and fire loomed over the place as the furnace was out back. “Alright now, I would like to do this one by one, All you need to do is sit down and tell me about yourselves while I take some measurements. Yuki, Anna, Aki and yourself blush in preparatory embarrassment. Rozalin blushes in excitement, and Adrian is just standing there confused as to why this is a big deal. Wilhelm notices your hesitance, “Don't worry, I am a professional and would never dream of attempting anything on you all. I would likely die if I did, and I wouldn’t be able to craft your wondrous items regardless.” Wilhelm’s points are solid, but your friends still seem hesitant. As a leader, at times like thes, it is best to lead by example. “I-I’ll go first. You friends look at you a little worried. “Wonderful!” The smith says and then guides you into a back curtained room.

>>467674
Also, only one person voted for adaptive armor and cestus.

>>467679

The room he guides you to is filled with measuring tapes, tools, and reference mannequins. It was pretty in-depth if not slightly unnerving as to how seriously he took this. Wilhelm pulls out one of his many measuring tapes and asks, “Now, If you would be so kind as to remove your clothes we can begin.” It was awkward, to say the least, you were already naked once in this plane when you fought a public duel, but that was in a combat situation where you have a different mindset. Here is it is more embarrassing for some reason. You take off your clothes but he stops you when you reach for your underwear. “You don’t need to remove that if you wish, I can get accurate measurements with them on.” Thank god. The harpy pulls out some parchment and a writing utensil and begins his measurements. It was extensive, to say the least. You were pretty sure every inch of your skin was measured. Even your toes and fingers were individually measured. All the while the smith struck up conversation. “If you don’t mind me saying I know of your reputation around here and I wanted to ask you a bit more details.” “That is fine.” It’s not like you were hiding anything. “So do you enjoy helping others?” “Overall yeah, it gives a sense of fulfillment and lets me know I and doing something productive here.” “here you say? You are from somewhere else?” “Yes, a far off land I wish to see one day again.” “Interesting…” The smith takes extra notes. Next, the smith asked a flurry of rapid fire questions, but before that he stress, “This arms are being crafted for specifically you, and with that being said I would appreciate if you answered my questions truthfully.” You nod, “What makes you the happiest?” “What makes you the angriest?” “What do you think of yourself?” “What do you think others think of you?” The smith's final question, “what are you most afraid of and why?”

>Write in

These will not change the weapons and armors chosen for the MC but it will determine its detailing and style.

>>467674
Yes I know

Apparently I am incompetent with this thing sometimes.

>>467710
>What makes you the happiest?
My friends, but Aki makes me a special type of happy

>What makes you the angriest?
Getting so close to something only for it to be taken away

>What do you think of yourself?
I think I'm well grounded but it feels like things keep changing

>What do you think others think of you?
I think I'm thought of as a leader, they leave the important decisions to me

>What are you most afraid of and why?
Never seeing home or family again, I was taken and I just want to go back before all this

>>467710
Happiest
Seeing everyone's smiling faces after we helped more people. Saving and helping generally. Also Aki. Definitely Aki.

Angriest
Seeing people cause harm and destruction for no reason. Or doing it for evil reasons.

Ourselves
Don't really know. So much keeps changing that it is hard to get a good handle on ourselves.

What do you think others think of you
They think of me as a leader. As someone to follow. Also people think of me as someone who helps and saves others.

Most afraid of and why
Failing to protect my friends and family. Having them die on me. It happened once but never again.

>>467710
>What makes you the happiest?
Aki and my friends.

>What makes you the angriest?
To lose loved ones.

>What do you think of yourself?
I act instinctively, I've caused deaths due to not observing and learning before acting with the Sharkfolk and Mermaids, resulting in temporary loss of my legs and the near death of me and one of my friends. But my greatest success was with the Girtablilu in the Desert of Red Ash, where I first ventured and learnt more.

>What do you think others think of you?
As the leader.

>Most afraid of and why?
To lose my friends and family, and to never see them again.

You think hard about his questions. “I would say that what makes me happiest is my friends seeing them every day, and working together with them never gets old. I also love one of them. And being together with her is one of the best feelings I have ever had.” “Is that so?” He doesn’t ask any clarifying questions, only hears your immediate thoughts and puts them to paper. “As for what makes me angriest, I would say it is a myriad of things. Destruction, the loss of life for no reason. Lossing someone close to me. Getting so close to something and having it all stripped away in front of you. There is no order to these, all of these things individually make me the angriest I have ever felt.” “Hmmm” “I think of myself as someone who is constantly changing, I have been here for only a few months but so far I have gained magical abilities and my body is starting to age progressively faster." “Truly?” Despite his tone, he doesn’t inquisitive further. You think about your friends and the people you have encountered up until this point for your next question. “As for the others, I think they see me as a leader, someone who can help others and guide them.” “Yes indeed…” “As for what I am most afraid of... “ You think for a second, “It would be never seeing my home or family again, or losing my friends. I care for them deeply and the thought of losing even one of them… terrifies me.

After that interview the master smith finishes his measurements and announces “Thank you for your time, I just want to promise you that nothing you said here will be repeated by me. I care too much for the happiness of my customers to leak any information what so ever.” “Thanks, Wilhelm.” He lightly smiles and after you put your clothes back on you walk back to your friends in the waiting area.

After your self-sacrifice, you walk out to your eagerly awaiting team. They were so eagerly waiting that they press themselves against the room's wall with their ears to try and hear how things were going. “You all okay?” “Yes! Perfectly fine thanks for asking!” Aki semi-shouts nervously You just kind of give them a semi disappointed stare, but then tell them, “No need to worry, Wilhelm is indeed a professional and he means you no harm.” “If you say so…” Wilhelm then asks the crowd, “Who would like to me next?” “Me!” Rozalin said eagerly. It’s to be expected from her. “Now Wilhelm I just want you to know not to be too rough with me I am a fragile girl you see and-” The two walk behind the curtain. You have no idea what goes on behind there and you make sure that no one is trying to listen through the wall again. Rozalin and Wilhelm walk out 15 minutes later and the cycle begins. Time went by rather slow but your friends one by one received their measurements. Victoria was the last one up.

>>467933

Wilhelm address your combative friend motioning to the measuring room, “Right this way miss.” Victoria annoyingly just said, “No, just give me something like gauntlets or a club, I don’t care about the armor sizing.” Wilhelm tries to reason with her, “Miss, please understand that your weapons and armor if designed for you specifically would be far more effective.” “Yeah? Well, I just told you what I want, so we’re done then.” She tries to shoo off the smith. “Young miss, I am afraid I must insist that you at least allow me to interview you and take general measurements. Nothing too intrusive or anything.” “Not going to happen.” “But young miss!” Victoria slams her fist into the table which she was seated. “I SAID NO!” she then gets up and leaves ahead of all of you. Before you see her go completely out of your vision you hear in the distance, “Fuck!” You apologize for her sake. “Sorry Wilhelm, I don’t know why she acted the way she did.” “It is alright, it will just be to her detriment is all. I will simply do as she requested but your weapons and armor will not be ready for a few days. “That is understandable, We shall return in a couple days then. Thank you for doing this Wilhelm it really helps us out to have proper weapons and armor.” “Think nothing of it! As an artist, it is a pleasure to craft! It is also not every day when you get to craft for one such as yourself. I promise on my pride as a smith that these weapons shall be the finest you have ever seen!” He seems quite enthusiastic about this whole thing. Which is likely good news for you.

Once out in the village, you needed to decide how the next few days were going to be spent.

Let us go talk to Victoria first so we can see what that was all about.
Then Yuki. We haven't talked to her in a while.

>>467947
Practice Martial Abilities.

Also, has the types of weapons and armor changed? As for the initial final results, some had only one vote or had someone samefagging.

>>467967
I switched MC to short sword and parry. Other than that I am using the suggestions of the last poster from the old thread for the most part. Not all too much was different either way.

You are concerned as to what happened with Victoria back there. You should try and track her down. “Hey guys we can relax for today, I’m going to go find Victoria and see what is up.” “Alright,” they generally said. Anna spoke out, though, “I wanna come…” “Anna, you and her have a tendency to fight, based on how she was acting I don’t know if it would be a good idea to bring you along.” “I know, but I want to.

>Let Anna come
>No, Anna might set her off even more

>>468096
>Let Anna come
It will either make everything worse or give us great character development. How can we not.

>>468096
No, Anna might set her off even more.

Anna seems determined to come with you. “Okay Anna, but try not to say anything that might make her more upset than she already is.” Anna nods. “Then let’s go!” You two sprint off in the direction you last saw Victoria heading. You end up running through a market place of various shops selling trinkets and food and the like. While making your way past a stand you hear some yelling coming from an alley way. You investigate slowly making your way down the alley you start to here. “Please stop! Please!” “You should have stopped when you tried to rob me you fucking scumbags!” A loud smack reverbed through the alley. “Heeeee, no please, please, we are sorry.” “Sorry? You can never be sorry!” Another loud smack. You are certain that was Victoria. You and Anna sprint down the alley way to find Victoria standing over three ragged and now badly beat men.

“Victoria!” you yell. She turns to face your voice, “Ohh it’s…” She notices Anna “You!” Anna starts shouting. “Victoria, what are you doing to these men.” “It’s not obvious? They tried to rob me so I beat the shit out of them.” You join in, “That doesn’t explain why you kept beating them.” “Because these assholes deserve it!” She turns back to the men and kicks one of them on the ground in the stomach. “Ouuffff” He holds his stomach in pain. “Please, we are sorry we will never bother you again, just let us go…” Victoria winds up another kick. “Stop!” Anna yells. Victoria's whole body shifts toward Anna and a slow walk toward her begins. There was a fire in her eyes, one of a lion about to pounce and attack anything in its path. She walks up to Anna, “Make. Me.” Anna stood resolute clutching her fists in frustration. Slowly reels back and winds up for a punch. Victoria isn’t moving to defend herself at all.

“Stop this right now!” you yell at both of them. They ignore your presence. Anna’s punch begins its swing and is gaining momentum. Again Victoria is not moving. “That is enough! You run and grab Anna. It takes all your strength but you are holding her back from hitting Victoria. Victoria, however, has other ideas, “That all you got pipsqueak.” “!!!” Anna’s arms and legs are given new life as they slowly overpower your hold. Victoria, stop it now!” She ignores you. “Fine!” You let go of Anna but toss yourself at Victoria. “What?!” Both of them yell as Anna’s fist lands square in your back. It had quite a lot of force too, sent you flying hard into Victoria who caught you. Anna realizes fully what happened a few moments later. “Why would you do that?!” she yells. “Because you two needed to stop…” Not gonna lie that punch hurt a lot but at least they stopped.

“Now you two we are going to sit down and talk this out. “I don’t want to.” Victoria tries to walk off again, but you grab her, “No I think you do.” You put strength into your voice. It was less of a suggestion and more of a command. Victoria caves to your intense glare, “Whatever, not like it will accomplish anything.” Before coming back to you she addresses the three men who for some reason still there. “Scram you bastards! If I see you again you won’t get off so lucky!” “Y-Yes ma’am!” After that, Victoria walks back and sits next to you. You were between Anna and her, with an aching back.

“Okay, first thing is first, Why did you leave from the shop today?” “Because I didn’t want to be there for that crap.” “You mean you didn’t want to get measured and outfitted?” “Sure, whatever." Anna chimes in, “There is another reason isn’t there?” “No one asked you pipsqueak!”

Also we should do everything in our power to make sure she doesn't leave and actually talks this out. Instead of acting like petulant child like she normally does.

>>468279
"What are you afraid of?"

>>468286
That works. But we might have to ask Anna to leave and fight Victoria. Dhe only seems to respect power after all.

>>468303
If that has to happen it happens. We have to find some way for her to open up and talk. Otherwise we should just leave her. If she doesn't want help then why do anything. Let her sulk and pretend that no one cares about her.

>>468310
Oh well, not blunt at all.

"Victoria do you know why I am strong? Why I try so hard to become stronger and make sure you are all safe? Is because I care about all of you. Because I love all of you, even Adrian. Do you think that caring about others makes me weak?"

>>468286
Is gonna be hard to resolve the hostility between Anna and Victoria. If it wasn't out of character, we could ask mother for a lust potion so they finally kiss and make up.

“You can talk about it Victoria if there is something bothering you we want to try and fix it.” You honestly meant that and you are pretty sure Victoria knew that. Regardless though she looks at you and a long while at Anna, she sniffs and blows it off, “Listen, it reminded me of things and it made me really want to beat the shit out of something. So I went to do that.” She doesn’t seem like she wants to talk about it further. Anna tries to jump in again, “Okay Victoria, but the problem won’t go away if you just keep suppressing it like this.” “No one asked for your opinions!” You think you might be making some headway but for sure it seems like as long as Anna is here you won’t get very far. Maybe you will talk with her later tonight.

You hop up from your spot, “Alright you two we should head back. We have the next couple days off so we can at least relax and ease up for the time being. Both Anna and Victoria at the same time spit out “Whatever…” You really should keep talking to Victoria, but for now, you should let her cool off. For now though maybe you will talk to another one of your friends.

Who we have talked less lately? I want to talk to the Imps and ask them questions about their race. Are they demons or something? Why they keep following us despite the danger?

And are them okay with us wanting them to be ninja?

>>468335
We should talk to Yuki, for being our friend we have kind of been ignoring her lately.

>>468349
We wrote Yuki earlier. mainly because we haven't talked to her in a bit and she is our best friend from school. The next day we should talk to the Imps though. Go through everyone. Social links all around.

>>468358

Once your business with Victoria and Anna was settled you roamed the streets looking at som market stands to take your mind off things when you suddenly feel a weight on your back. “Hey you!” Yuki jumped onto you, much like she used to back home. It honestly hurt a bit since that where Anna punched you, but you weren’t going to tell her that. She hangs onto you. She asks, “Looking for something to buy?” “Not really, I just wanted stroll and get my mind off things.” “Well, if you have nothing better to do then I know just the thing!” “What is it?” She didn’t tell you but instead dragged you to forcefully by the arm. You forgot how surprisingly strong she can be when she gets like this. This kind of strength and type of drag could have meant only one thing with Yuki. Yuki announced to you, “We are going shopping for clothes!” You knew it.

Yuki dragged you every which way, but in a town of harpies finding human-ish clothes was restricted to tops and skirts. Yuki was completely okay with it but you were very much not. “C’mon just put on the skirt….” “But I don’t like it!” “But it's starting to suit you a bit more now! Can’t you see your feminine side is finally coming in!” You did notice that before. Your hips were a bit wider, your bust slightly larger and your skin was softer. But it didn’t make much a difference to you. You liked your baggy clothes dammit. And once you wear something for almost all your life it is hard to change. “Yuki, I am fine with my current clothes I don’t need new ones when these have worked so well thus far. “But you are doing your new figure a disservice! I bet you aren’t even wearing a bra! You weren’t, but with your clothes one was has been able to tell at this point. “We simply must fix this!” She drags you away again with her near titan strength that the act of shopping instills in her.

>>468423
Bras are a must if we keep growing. I hope we don’t become top heavy, back pains aren't a joke.

>>468423

Yuki's shopping ring was hell, Yuki demanded that you try on skirts but you refused, she bought some of them anyways. She also demanded that you try on some frillier underwear but you have been wearing comfortable boxes most your life. When you were a kid your mom tried to get you to wear panties like a girl, but even as a child, you knew they weren’t for you. You told her it was a no for that, but you did let her buy you a sports bra. “It’s something I suppose… Oh!” Yuki darts off again, but this time to a jewelry store. “ She beckons you over and shows you what she was so interested in, “Look, matching lockets!” They were simple necklaces with small silver containers as center trinkets. Yuki explains them further. These are little containers were you can put, notes pictures poems you name it in them!” She should get a pair!” It seemed harmless, “Sure Yuki,” Yaaa! She purchased the two lockets.” Then she hands one of them to you. “These will be our friendship lockets! What you do is you write how you feel and your general thoughts on your friendship in the other person's locket. Then you seal them and after a year you open them to see how your friendship has changed. Sounds fun right?! She jingles her locket excitedly in front of you.” “Sure Yuki, let's write ours tonight.” “Hehe.”

The time you spent with Yuki was pleasant, she demands that she designed your outfit for tomorrow, and she refused to take no for an answer. You just hope you get to wear your baggy pants. Either way, the day was winding to an end, and you were getting tired

>Try talking to someone again

Let us talk to Victoria again, see if she calmed down.

"Yuki you are the best and oldest friend I have and I hope that will continue. Hopefully a year from now we can look back on that has happened and find that it wasn't a terrible time because we spent it together."

>>468439
Don't think we have time. What with day winding down

>>468449
It's fine.
We can talk to Victoria and perhaps spar with her a bit to improve our martial ability.

>>468439
Also we should go see Victoria. What with the prompt from earlier. Letting her cool off so we can talk to her later

>>468449
Yeah, plus Victoria is a must for sparing partner but she is still somewhat upset, maybe tomorrow?

>>468453
That works if we are able.

>>468433
"Yuki if you are reading this, it means a year has happened. Are we still human? Even if we are not I hope we haven't also become monsters in both of hearts and souls. Compassion and kindness are a good thing and never let anyone tell you that they are not."

You think by now Victoria might have cooled off. Thankfully, Queen Kanon was taking care of your housing while you were waiting for your armor, so She couldn’t have been far. Your initial search for her comes up dry, but when passing by a window you spot her outside training. “At this time of night?” you thought. Oh well, guess we will head down there.

You walk outside to the courtyard, “Can’t sleep?” *huff* *huff* “Not at the moment. Wanna go around?” “You sure?” I mean you have nothing better to do but you didn’t know, “Yeah, c’mon.” Hopefully, she isn’t still on edge and this is just a friendly match.

Your sparring goes fairly well. It may have just been spare but you can tell she was working you. Not like she was angry or anything but just working hard like usual.” She starts talking to you, “You need to keep your wider so you don’t fall to the ground so easily.” “She fake trips you. You counter, “Well you need to watch out enemy ingenuity,” You turned your momentum from her trip into a kick after you landed on your hands and spun. “Not bad, but!” She manages to grab your leg mid spin and holds you up. “You needed to rotate a bit faster, that way it is far less readable.” “Understood.”

After another 10 or 15 minutes of this, you both sit down tired. “Phew, I needed a good workout, thanks.” “No problem,” it's what you say, but you kind of came out there to ask about what happened earlier today. Acter catching your breath, “Victoria… I know what happened today got to you in some way and I am sorry for being intrusive earlier and I won’t ask again, but I just wanted to explain.” You look at her to get approval, but she just sits there,waiting for you to continue your thought. “Victoria, the reason I do all these things is because from the bottom of my heart I care about all of you. You, Anna, Aki, Rozalin, Nessera and Serena. Oh and Adrian. I love all of your and I wouldn’t want to trade our friendship for anything, but I figured that you didn’t think making connections is either a terrible thing or you simply don’t care. Either way, your feelings are your own and my feelings are mine own. You may never change and you should never feel pressured to. But know that no matter your choice in life, I will support you the whole way through.”

Victoria chuckled, “Heh, you’re pretty good with words. But ya already knew that.” She takes a deep sigh. “I don’t like men or being naked or unclothed in general.” “That is understandable being stripped in the presence of a man is certainly embarrassing. “It isn’t embarrassing for me.” “?” “It makes me want to punch a hole through the guy.” “But why?” Another deep sigh, “It’s a bit of a long story so you’ll have to bear through it with me.” You nod. “My dad died when I was pretty young maybe when I was only like 8 or so.” “I’m sorry Victoria.” “For what? You didn’t kill him. Anyways, after that my mom and I were by ourselves for a while. It was tough if I remember right for her, she worked an international job so she often wasn’t home for weeks on end and I was forced to live with my grandparents during that time. After a bit, my mom got together with a new man who she soon married. My step dad was nice at first but he…. He deserves to die.” Victoria clenches her fists. You want to ask her why, but you think she will explain at her own pace. “After a bit, she unclenches her fists and continues. “So now that my mom had a new man he could watch me while my mom was away, I was less of a burden on my grandparents and it allowed for “bonding” between parent and step child. It was fairly normal for a while, but then he started to act weird when mom was around, he doted on me much more than any normal parent would. At least compared to mom. I thought he was being nice since I was his new stepchild and trying to make a good first impression when it turns out he didn’t care at all.”

She picks up a stick of a ground and continues her story. “One night, after weeks of this he said he wanted to talk to me about something about school in my room. However when we got up to my room he… locked the door. After that..” She snaps the stick in half, “... he pushed me onto the bed….” *Snap* then he stripped me and tied me up so that he could more easily rape-….*SNAP*” she is breaking branches like there was no tomorrow. She would break anything if it was in her hands right now. “Point is after that day I never came home after school and only occasionally when my mom was home to let her know I wasn’t dead. He told me that no one would believe my word over his and that if I told anyone that he would hurt my mom. I wished he just died. That fucker deserved worse than death. Every day I thought that for almost 3 years. I never went home and lived on my own since then. Until well now.

Victoria’s past was a lot to swallow, there wasn’t too much to say in the face of such a story, but now you can at least understand why she reacted the way she did today and that time you questioned her about her parents dying. “Victoria…” You move to put your hand on her shoulder but she shrugs it off. “I don’t need or want your pity.” “It’s not pity Victoria it is genuine sadness that I feel. And a want to be there for you.” “Well, instincts tell me not to believe you.” You can understand why I guess she will open at her own pace.”Well, Victoria, I appreciate you feeling like you could talk to me about this, and I will try and help you in any way I can." "Unless you can erase memories I don't think you can. *SNAP*

Afer the tale you decided to relax the rest of the of a minute of sitting in silence, You and Victoria looks up that the night sky. Starks as far as you could see. Waves of light radiated from around the plane You almost lost yourself up there by just staring at its beauty. Victoria breaks the small silence, “You know, you are the only person who I ever told that to, and I promised to never tell anyone. But have this, ability or natural charisma that makes people want to talk to you. It’s a little concerning when you think about it too much. Oh well, I should head to bed. After that though I need to go and break one more thing. "

To be continued

I am balls tired see you all tomorrow around 11:30AM PST

>>468652
She is right, we should be careful with that.

Also, I can't wait Mother reaction to get her doll by Harpy mail.

Wait, we totally forgot about that didn't we?

>>468652

Victoria stands up from her position and stretches. “Alright, one last thing, don’t tell anyone, especially her.” “I wouldn’t dream of it.” She smiles “Thanks.” She walks off soon after. That was an awfully heavy conversation, one you didn’t expect from Victoria, but it lets you understand her a bit more. You sit and think for a moment, “Being here is better than home for some people, huh.” It’s almost amazing to you how shitty all people can be, even back home. Well, that’s enough sulking you suppose. You get up and make your way to your room for some rest.

Before you hit the sack you remember about your friendship locket you and Yuki bought today. “You’re supposed to write down your feelings huh?” Well, this should be easy. You grab some parchment and a writing utensil and let your emotions flow onto the page. “Yuki, you are my best and oldest friend and I hope that we will stay that way forevor despite the events that happen in the next year. Whether we change physically or mentally your compassion and kind soul will always be your greatest quality. I truly hope that after these trials are over, we can look back together and say it wasn’t such a terrible time since we were together.” Honestly thinking about the future worries you. There are still many questions that you think will be answered within that time, and you are not so sure they will be pleasent answers. No less pleasant experiences. Never the less it is hope for a better future that will keep you going, and these lockets now represent that.

>>469420

Now though it is time for a decent sleep, and this time Mother didn’t come to bother you. Sweet! You wake up the next day a little sore from your spare with Victoria and that near imprint on your back from Anna’s punch. But this was nothing compared to when you faced the Grand General. Once you can actually open your eyes you stretch and get up to get changed. You notice though on your bed next to you was an outfit and a note written by Yuki, “Here is your cute outfit for today! ^_^” You looked down and saw a blouse, skirt, sports bra and she even bought you a pair of panties. “Sorry Yuki, but some of these things I just can’t bring myself to wear. You go to grab a fresh pair of your normal clothes but you couldn’t find them. “Wha? But they should be right here?” You search your room but could not find them anywhere. Your search started to become more frantic searching literally every corner. But there was only the set that Yuki gave you. You look again at the note she left you. Seems there was something written on the back, “?” You flip it over to find “P.S. I know you would have just chosen your old clothes so I took all of them from you. You should enjoy your new cuter look!” “YUUUUUKKIIIIII!!!!!”

You panicked, I mean I could just wear your pajamas but as a hero saying at a royal palace that felt a little rude. “Fine!” You moved to go put on your new attire. All parts of it felt constricting compared to your normal outfit. The blouse was fairly light and breathable but you could swear that the sports bra was trying to cause your chest to implode. Next for the bottoms….” You refused to wear that underwear but boxers and skirts don’t really work. You pick up the skirt. “Maybe if it was longer I could get away with it.” after pondering your options you notice that there is a balled up cloth with a second note attached to it. “I know you like these a bit more so, for now, you can wear them under the skirt.” It was your pants! “GOD BLESS YOU YUKI!” you jumbled them on as fast as you could. And was about to leave, when you thought. You know she did do all this work for me so... “ You caved and put on the skirt over your pants. It didn’t feel normal to you, but it was better than just wearing the skirt.

With that nightmare out of the way, you head for your rooms door. You now take some time to think. What should we do today?

>Practice Magical abilities (as a group and will only take up half a day)

Since it is only half a day we should go see Queen Kanon about Mother's Doll. Also If we still have time in the day we should go talk Nessera and Serena

>>469451
If we practice magical abilities, are there any types of magics that could increase our physical prowess.

>>469554
That works.

>>469575

Not unless we learn Transformation with Baba Yaga as far as we know.

Why do you guys want to give the Mother doll to her? It seems that she doesn't want it.

>>469575
Anna still has alteration powers which does that. For the MC thought not really except maybe protective death or water magic. But even that is pretty base.

>>469634
You know nothing about women do you?

>>469634
Because we what to give her back her doll.

>>469648
Yes.

And also because she wants the doll.

Calle 200 north capcha? We lived there? Okay.

Just want to confirm we are doing practice magical abilities and what flavor of magic for the MC?

You think it could be a good opportunity to practice some of your magics. They come incredibly handy in almost all situations and their practice could only increase your group's capabilities. With that decided you open your door to the hallway, In the hallway waiting for you was Aki and Yuki. “Yuki makes director lenses with her fingers and comments. “Simply marvelous don’t you agree?!” Aki just blushes and nods. Yuki continues with her enthusiasm, “As an artist, there is nothing called perfection only improvement! As a fellow artist you must understand, Akitani,” Aki is a little flustered, “I-Indeed…” “It is far from perfection but my masterpiece is slowly taking shape. ONWARD TO PROGRESS! HAHA!” Yuki is crazy into this and marches away with her finger still pointed in the air laughing. Aki stays behind and just says quietly, “You do look really cute like that.” “T-Thanks.” lower your face in embarrassment. “Hehe, let's meet with the others” “Right.”

You march to a lobby where your friends were waiting. “Alright everyone we will be doing some practice while we are waiting. Keeping up on our abilities will help us here.” “Victoria seems excited, “Sounds good to me.” “We will focus on magic,” “SHIT!” Magical practice did leave out many of your friends as only 3 of you could actively practice, Auriel told you that Adrian has the potential but without a proper teacher it is hard to know how to unlock it. Maybe they could practice their specialty abilities, except Adrian, you had other plans for him. You make use of the courtyard and began trying to hone your craft. You decided to work on your water magic. The death magic you know is incredibly useful, if not a tad morally questionable.

You began your practice with some basic water manipulation a stream of water danced around you. It was actually quite beautiful as the reflecting sun in the water produced dancing lights in the shade. You feel like you can make the stream bigger now and manipulate it further. You don’t think it is quite to the point where you can make a water cannon or something like that but this is still much more water that you can manipulate at the same time. You practice its control. You split the water in half and hold each of them separately and then send those pieces flying, at Adrian. “Woah!” he dodged them, though. Oh now should be a good time to tell everyone. “Okay, guys Adrian’s ability makes him the perfect target practice. “WHAT?!”

Victoria tells the poor boy, “Don’t worry, this is practice for you too, just see it all coming and move!” She then picks up a stick with her telekinesis and swings it at Adrian. He dodges. Victoria then picks up more sticks 3 at a time that acted with her as she assaulted the boy. “No! Please!” He was dodging everything but he was quite distressed none the less.

Yuki’s Anna’s turn came next but when she tried to materialize her weapons she experienced some sort of magic backfire as her arm started to crack and cut apart. “Ahh,this time,” blood was starting to run from it at increasing speeds. “Anna are you okay?” you ask but Yuki dashes over to her. “Let me see it.” Anna raises her arm to which Yuki places her hand on hers. A soft warm yellow glow engulfed her arm and the next second her hand looked like nothing happened. “Any pain?” “No, it feels like, nothing happened at all.” “Anna tries to produce her weapons, this time, it worked perfectly normal. You thought she must have blown out a magical circuit or something, you didn’t think that could be healed with Yuki’s magic but it seems like it did.

Akitani then walks up to Adrian and focuses on him. Adrian starts to look rather apathetic, “Man, what is the point of all this. She then smacks him. Surprisingly he didn’t try to dodge. And took the blow to the face. “What are you doi-” Adrian tries to object to what happened in anger but then immediately calms down, “You know you probably had a good reason, not like I care anyways.” He did literally a second ago. Aki’s emotional control powers are starting to look a bit scary you thought.

While watching all of this you felt a soft hand on your shoulder. “Aren’t you just darling, so beautiful in your new outfit.” Rozalin managed to sneak up and lay down behind you. I’ don’t know about that,” “Don’t sell yourself short you cute thing. She moves her hands around to your face. Your face is also becoming much prettier, I wish I could get a closer look. She starts to move closer to you. You feel your mind start to fall into a pink haze. Your body leans back into the bicorns soft body. Feeling her fur against your skin was still one of the best feelings you ever had. You feel your consciousness begin to slip slightly, but you try to fight back.

Your mind was going blank, nothing mattered to you except Rozalin. She was the one originally motioning closer toward you, but you ended up moving closer to her. “Ara getting excited now are we.” She commented but did not try to stop you. She closed her eyes while your mouth began to move closer to hers. Abruptly, you felt some claws digging into your arms and Akitani rips you away from the former unicorn. You were still hazy at this time but your mind was slowly clearing. “Don’t you ever do that again!” Aki warns the bicorn. Rozalin teases back in response, “Are you afraid of sharing dear basilisk? You know I can teach her quite a few tricks for when you and her are-” “No! Do not try and charm her again!” “I was merely practicing my charms, it is a magic to is it not? And how am I supposed to practice if I don’t try to seduce people Ms. Protective.” “Quiet!” Aki holds you close.

Now was about the time when you gained your senses fully. “What? What is going on.” Rozalin greets your awakening,“Ahh you’re are awake. Please explain to your girlfriend that I was only practicing my abilities as you requested.” “She is lying.” Aki shoots back. “I have never tried to charm her on our journey together thus far since coming down from the accursed lands. I had ample opportunities to do so but I did not. I was just practicing as we decided to do so.” She has a pretty sound argument but Aki still looks rather upset.

>”Aki it is okay, Rozalin really was just practicing, she won’t do it again.”
>”Never attempt that on me again! You will be severely punished next time!”
> “Aki it is okay, Rozalin and I will have a talk about this later. *wink at Rozalin*

>>470475
>”Never attempt that on me again! You will be severely punished next time!”

Like hell we let her rape us.

>>470475
Aki it is okay, Rozalin really was just practicing, But next time you practice you make sure Aki is around to pull us out of the Charm

>”Never attempt that on me again! You will be severely punished next time!”

I don't like the fact she used magic for that.

>>470506
And what if she catches us alone, like sneaking to our bed at night?

Even if we sleep with Aki every night from now on, is too risky and reminds us of the Sirens.

>>470553
Makes sense. I was suggesting if she wants to practice again make sure someone is around so that we can be pulled out from the charm.

>>470623
If we don’t say no, that will just encourage her.

Aki is a monster girl, we are not, let's trust our girlfriend with this.

Since we are losing social cues.

She can practice on Adrian.

>>470651
Makes sense. Do keep people around when she is practicing though. For safeties sake

>>470505
>>470524

“Rozalin, you will not attempt that again. If you are practicing declare that you are doing so, but never try that on me again. Next time you will be severely punished.” Her charms remind you a lot of those sirens you once faced and the last time you were charmed you ended up as a slave. Rozalin has helped you so far, but you aren’t taking any chances. “Ara ara, Feisty are we? Did you enjoy being the dominant one at the end there?” You were threatening her, and yet she is able to somehow still tease and act coy. Does nothing faze this woman? You started to ignore her. There was no point if she was going to be like this.

It seems your time practicing has come to an end. Everyone took turns practicing so most people were rested up. Except Adrian, he was your target practice and using him a one lets him practice his own abilities. He crawled dramatically on the ground groaning in pain “Kill… me….” Well, that took up a lot of your day but it did bear quite a bit of fruit. You feel that most of you got stronger in this time spent training.

We still have a bit of time in the day though it seems more training isn’t likely to take place.

Time to go see what is up with the Queen and get that doll delivered. “Queen Kanon, I want o thank you for allowing us all to stay here for the time being and providing us the services of master Wilhelm, he is a quirky one, but his care for his craft is apparent.” “It was the least I could do for you all,” “Yes your majesty, but I unfortunately come requesting another favor.” “Oh?” You pull out the mommy doll and place it in the harpy queens view. “I only ask that this gets delivered to the vampire castle south-east of here.” “Castle Ravani? This is a simple thing I can do, but how do you know the vampires there and why did you want to send this.” “It is a long story I am afraid, but ultimately I am well acquainted with Mistress Ravani and I wish to send this to her.” “A doll? What would a vampire want a doll for.” “It is just a present, but I think she will enjoy it regardless.” “Very well, I will get someone to fly the doll over as soon as I- “ME ME ME I WANNA DO IT!” Melo bursts into the room and flies directly into the opposite wall. No, no no. You pull the doll close to your person. “I would like to request a, more tried member of your people to carry it.” That is understandable.” The queen motions for her guards to fetch someone. “I will send the fastest flier among us, or second fastest I should say. “Second fastest?” “Well, Melo is the fastest flier in the whole village.” “A-Are you joking?” “Not at all, she beats most others outright in races. It was one of the reasons I sent her to find you in the first place. Oh god. “Speed is no issue, your majesty! Please just send someone trusted.” “AWWWWWWWWWWW, But I wanna go too!” the Queen sighs, “She can be quite persistent when she gets like this,” you remember from your time back during your infiltration planning of the mountain Melo’s insistence in her helping.

>Melo can go with the flier
>Melo better stay here

“Melo you can go with the flier, but they lead the flight, not you. And please don’t try to cause too much trouble.” “Got it! I’m just confused on how this other person is supposed to “read the light?” Is light readable now?” At this point, you are simply impressed by her ability to misinterpret and understand basic things. “Thanks… Melo and I hope you have a pleasant trip.” “What is a “pheasant flip”? Some sort of flight maneuver? Ohhh can you teach me?!” “Maybe one day. For now, you should get going.” She stands up tall and salutes both you and the Queen “Aye-aye sir!” She flies out a nearby window. The runner Kanon sent for hasn’t even shown up yet.

Despite… difficulties… you managed to get your gift mailed to Mother. It took way longer than you hoped to do since Melo got involved but at least it is sent. Either way, your second day of waiting comes to an end.

You’re pretty tired after that training today so you decide to head to sleep, though after what happened with Rozalin today you are a little concerned. Before heading to bed you find Aki. She was in her room sculpting actually. Seems in her free time she decided to take up her hobby once more. It looked like she was sculpting Baeloric “The Destroyer” She was pretty engrossed in her art, she was even wearing the beret and glasses again. You decide to sneak up on her.
“Now we just have to add the orb which we will put right… there. Perfect.” She reclines back finishing her work, you take this opportunity to pounce and wrap your arms around her neck. She looks surprised “Oh! You startled me.” “That was the plan, how are you doing after today,” She places her claw on your arm around her.” “I’m still a little upset at the whole thing, that woman needs to learn how to control herself.” “I actually think her problem is she is too in control of herself and wants others to those their’s for the sake of a good time. But enough about her Aki how are you doing overall here.” “It’s nice but... “ She turns her body so now her arms are wraping around you and she kisses you gently. “I just wish I had some more time with you.” You felt the same and it is indirectly the reason you came here tonight.

“Alright, Aki tell you what want to spend the night together?” “Like this?” “Exactly like this.” You start to feel her tail try to coil you. “W-Well maybe not right here. How about a bed. She looks to her bed and gets flush. “I-I-If you s-s-say soo.” For some reason, her coiling around you wasn’t embarrassing but as soon as you mentioned you wanted to sleep on a bed she gets incredibly bothered about it. “It’s okay Aki, I just wanted to spend a night with you in comfort while we are here, no pressure for anything more than that.” She now gets even more embarrassed. Looks down and scratched her head a few times in frustration, “Why is my head always in the gutter….” “Haha,” you have a short cuckle to yourself until you lifted Aki’s face with your hand. “You know your embarrassed face is always so cute Aki.” heh, “and you are looking so cute with your new look. Now it was your turn to feel embarrassed. “Well… I can try to wear more, girly things if you like it.” “Only if you want to, but for now I want to have something else.” She kissess you. It was a long kiss and while doing so she slowly moved you to her bed. There you and she laid and continued your embrace.

>>471506

Every Time you do this with Aki it feels… better, more right. Your heart is beginning to ache. You pant, “Aki… I love you.” “I love you too” That night you slept the best night of sleep you have ever had. You feel like you think that a lot but I guess it just keeps getting better.

The next day arrives and Aki’s ability to sleep in once again shows itself. You really didn’t want to bother her, and looking at her pretty sleeping face was nice. While you waited you thought what you would all do today.

Let's get a balanced training.

>>471514
While my Urge to go on the Special date is high. We should practice Martial abilities. Then talk to someone later tonight. Like the Imps or maybe Adrian.

>>471538
And with our luck there will someone attacking us during the date.

>>471546
I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about

>>471554
Read the previous threads, when has ANYTHING we do in this world been simple and just like we wanted it to do?

>>471568
You do know you are messaging the QM right? Telling them to read their own story.

To be fair, being slighty paranoid that we will be attacked or kidnapped when our party has been reduced to merely two members due to a special event is perfectly logical.

>>471583
No I didn't. I was a tad distracted while posting due to posting on three quests at once. But now the other two are done so I will try to at least read people nicknames.

You practiced magic yesterday so it was only fair to practice martial abilities today. You waited until Aki woke up to start moving, though. At least that is what you told yourself at first. 10 minutes passed and nothing. 10 turned into 30, nothing. 30 turned into an hour and that was all you could take. “Aki, wake up please.” Nothing. “AKI WAKE UP!” nothing. “ Fine…’ You pin her nose closed, then when she opens her mouth you kiss it. “Mmhhhmhmh!” Seems she ran out of air rather quickly and her body forced herself to wake up. She takes deep breaths as you rise from bed. “Huff huff, I had always pictured waking up to a kiss, but this is very different from what I had imagined” “Haha, sorry, but you wouldn’t budge. We should get up and join the others. We are training again today.” “Oh goody,”

“YES!” Victoria shouted upon hearing the news. Then she cracked her knuckles and looked at Anna. Anna met her gaze and materialized a sword in her hand.” “Ladies, please! We aren’t even in the courtyard yet!”

Once you did get out to the courtyard people split off to work on their individual skills. Aki was practicing her claw work and movement abilities. Victoria was getting into a Brawl with Anna. Adrian was dancing you think? But he was going much faster than usual, at least he was trying to anyways. Yuki was trying to decide what to practice. Rozalin set up a lane of travel and practiced her charges.

That only left you and Yuki. Yuki talks with you “I’m not so sure what I should practice? I don’t usually fight as I help people, so what do you think I should do.

Yuki should
>Practice ranged weapons (knives, bow, crossbow)
>Practice long melee, (Glaive, Halberd Pike)
>Conditioning (Endurance training)

The MC should
>Practice swordsmanship

We should ask for someone that gives sword fighting lessons. If not here maybe with the goblins.

>>471678
We could try swordfighting practice if we find a more experienced swordsman willing to train us. Right now it seems that Conditioning is winning 3 to 2.

>>471678
I don't think Harpies can even use swords so it will have to be goblins unless these are Harpies that have hands.

>>471680
I meant for later. Since conditioning won.

“Tell you what Yuki we can condition train together cmon!” You grab her hand and you both set off on a strict regiment of push ups, runnig, sit ups, running again, squats, and finally running. It was exhausting but you feel like you got a lot of it. You were sore and tired from going so hard but tomorrow it should be worth it. Yuki, however, was a littl worse for wear. “I… I can… keep going… Put me… in coach!....” Looks more like its time for the coach to take her out. “That’s okay Yuki just work at your own pace. Face down in the ground se raises her arm and gives a thumbs up.

“Cmon cmon cmon! Is that all you got!” It seems Anna and Victoria are slugging it out. Victoria is throwing punches left and right, Anna his dodging and making cuts at her as much as she could. You didn’t think this was a simple sparring match. That or they can only spare with each other effectively by actually fighting. Maybe their time in that arena did something to them. After a flurly of movements hard to spot Victoria ends up getting kicked back. Anna gloats, “A beast with no mind is natrually defeated by its betters.” “Shut up!” Victoria tosses a spear at Anna, blocks by creating a shield infront of her. “Come now you’ll have to-” As Anna taunted and lower her shield a shadow appeared above her. That shadow was Victoria coming down on her with a fierce punch. The shadow was grinning as the punch came down, but it was met by an equal grin from Anna who throw her arms up to meet the punch equally. This was all a little too entense for you, but you are sure they will be fine. They seem like they are having way too much fun to actually hurt eachother significantly.

Aki’s movement and blow training were going well. She would harden an object with her gaze and then crush it. She also used Rozalin’s makeshift charging lane to compare her speed with. Overall she seemed to be giving it her all and she was slowly becoming stronger.

>>472408

Adrian’s mad dance seems to have gotten madder, his speed has gone and his movements are becoming even more erratic. You had no idea where he learned this fighting style or why he is so good at it. But it was both strange and nice to see him coming more into his own. Granted, in his own way.

Rozalin, however, was having trouble with her charges, she couldn’t seem to get a good momentum . And when she did her aim was off. “Drat this infernal combating style!” She takes up a sword and just chops away in front of her. If her intention was to feint the target endlessly then she succeeded with flying colors. Though you think she would have liked it more if she hit the thing.

>MC gains endurance and can go longer without tiring in combat and a +1 to con
>Yuki gains a bit of endurance gaining the ability to keep mending for slightly longer
>Anna’s speed and reaction abilities have increased allowing for fancier combat maneuvers and on the fly combat style switching
>Victoria’s fists start breaking through stone and her throwing arm becomes even more deadly giving her a +1 to fists and a new crit window for spears (18-20)
>Aki gets faster and stronger +1 to claws and can now switch between focus targets of her gaze and combat enemies more effectively
>Adrian’s super awesome “Dancing Mad” ability has become violently good. Not only does it now confuse and trip enemies but it also damages them. At the risk of nausea to the user.

After an intense time training, you all were tired. Physical training was different than magical training and it drained almost all of you. Everyone was breathing heavily, some in frustration, some in relief, and some…. “I won you, idiot!” “No, you didn't! I got the last hit on you.” “The last hit does not decide the quality of your performance.” “No, but it does mean you won the damn fight!” Well, some are breathing in ways all too familiar.

You had only a bit of time left in the day and even then you were a little tired.

You think you know exactly what your party needs. You turn to adress your tired companions. “After hard training these past few days what we need is time to relax.” “Yeah, that is what we were planning on doing the rest of the day” Anna retorted. “But we need to relax the right way. Yuki perks up “Are you suggesting… what I think you are suggesting?” You nod, “We are going to the spa!” Yuki jumps for joy as does Rozalin and even Anna. The rest of your group looks confused. They all ask in their own way, “What’s a spa?”

It would be easier to show them. You drag them with you to the relaxation zone. You were fortunate that the village had one. It may have been tailored to harpies but the pampering would be all the same. Your group gets a good view entering the main doors of their not so distance future of luxury. Massages, manicures, and pedicures, and even a hot spring bath. Victoria seems the most surprised, “So you’re saying these people here wait on you literally hand and foot?” “For the most part yeah,: Adrian rubs his eyes, “Is this place real?” “We uh… had them back home you never noticed?” He ignores you and suddenly becomes just as excited as Yuki and Rozalin were. “Whooooo! Paradise awaits me!” he sprints into his apparent pleasure garden. You were surprised most guys back home thought this place would be too “girly” but I guess Adrian cares nothing for gender stereotypes. Soon Yuki, Rozalin, and Anna run in after them. Which just left you, Aki and Victoria. Victoria sighs, “I still don’t get it if you want something then get it yourself.” “But Victoria it will feel real good after all the hard work you have been doing. Think of it as a reward.” “A reward huh…” You motion your hands to the attendants and point at Victoria. Three harpies swarm her “Oh my your hair is in dreadful need of cleaning and tidying up.” Not to mention your body is far too tense, we will get that taken care of in just a moment.” “Hey! I didn’t ask you all to-” It was no use, after training as hard as she did with Anna she couldn’t fight back against these veterans spa attendants. Once Victoria goes it was just you and Aki. she turns away from you as an attendent comes to you both. “I assume they were all with you?” “Yeah unfortunately for some of them.” “hehe, and ma’am would you like us to take care of you like the others. Aki doesn’t answer but just puts her hand on your arm. You got the message, “Actually, could you do both of ours together.” “Easily,” the attendent then has you walk forward into paradise.

>>472532

The messages were deep tissue which you all needed desperately. It was a little rough at times as the harpies have claws and not hands, but it felt good none the less. The pedicures were exactly what you needed for your feet. The shampooing and washing of your heads complete with a head scalp massage were quite relaxing, you hear Adrian somewhere in the spa. “It feels like they are washing all my troubles away!” Glad to see he is enjoying himself.

The end all be all of the spas as everyone knows is the final hot bath to refresh your body after the titan level work was done to your body. The attendants led you to the changing room where you saw all your friends, minus one male human. Rozalin sighs in relief, “Finally a chance to clean out this fur. It is a nightmare preserving this. Would anyone be willing to wash me as I can not reach everywhere on my own? “She eyes at you.”

>Sure it's harmless, plus all of your friends were there doing the same thing

You had a more pressing issue than the body of Rozalin, no matter how soft it was. “Has anyone seen Adrian?” “No,” Yuki explains, “We went into the main circuit together but I think he needed to use the restroom or something and I haven’t seen him since then. This was a spa and typically a place of safety and relaxation, but it was always better to be safe than sorry. Go on ahead everyone. I’m going to find him.

You ask an attendant outside the room. “Have you seen a young man?” “That ultra eager boy? I think he got lost from where his place was and looked for a bathroom. I haven’t heard of him since though.” Pretty much the same thing Yuki told you, “Which bathroom.” “Probably the one closest to the parlor.” “Thank you, you start to head off to the parlor when the attendant tries to stop you, “Hey you need to wash yourself off before heading back in there. Your friend will be fine I promise.

>I mean this is a spa

“I’m sorry ma’am but I have to make sure he is alright, he has a tendency to find himself in trouble.” “Alright…” Getting hesitant confirmation you make your way through the spa to the parlor. The attendants are surprised to see you but you pay them no mind since you were searching with purpose. You head to the restroom the attended told you about and asked ‘Adrian are you here?” no answer. “Adrian!” No answer. “ADRIAN! You banged on the door.”A flustered woman comes out of the bathroom, “The nerve of some people!” as she leaves. You dash inside to look for some clues. But it seemed to you like a normal restroom. Well normal for harpies since there were branches everywhere. Nothing. Shit.

You decide to trace back all of your steps. You need to talk to his attendant personally. You walk back into the parlor. “Hello ladies, I was wondering which one of you worked on a young boy who passed through here and if you knew where he might be?” One of the harpies raises her hand, “I saw him go into the hot spring section a little later than the rest of you all.” Now way, “Which exact way did he go? Well through the door on the left and down the hall, but that’s the-” you didn’t give her time to finish as you fast walked down the path the attendant told you. That path leads to the changing area for the hot spring which Adrian wasn’t at, which means the only place he could be is out there. You walk over and open the sliding door to see Adrian sitting alone in a hot spring bath.

“Hey how is it go-....” he soon realizes exactly what situation he was in. he hides as best he cans and scoots away from you so that you are out of vision. “Adrian don’t run! Where were you, at the spa, relaxing in heaven. Just like you should be.” “But you disappeared!” “I had to use the bathroom geez.” So he was completely fine, which was good, but you soon realized you had a new problem on your hands. “Where is everyone else?” It was only you and Adrian in this hot spring bath with wood and paper walls.

You pause for a second and grasp your bearings. “Okay, so you’re here and okay. But the others… Adrian! Hurry and get out we need to find the others before something bad happens.” “Y-You sure? This is a spa they should be fine” “I won’t take chances.” You head to outside the changing room and wait for him to get prepared. “And I was just starting to really relax in there….” he whines. “It’s okay Adrian we can relax again later, for now, we need to find the others. The best way to do that is to retrace all of your steps from this point back to where your friends might be. This time, though Adrian will be with you at all times, and you won’t let him out of your sight.

First, you head to the attendant who pointed you to Adrian. “Did you know where my friends beside him are?” “Ohh that entourage they should be in the hot springs right about now.” But you were just there! This doesn’t make sense. You thank the guard and then head to the bathroom where you first looked for Adrian. “This was the bathroom you used right?” “Yeah, but I don’t see why that matters exactly.” “there might be something here,” you search this bathroom intensely,

>>472644
Is the reason Adrian was seperated from everyone else maybe because it is a gender segregated spa and we have been interrupting everyone who trys to explain that to us?

>>472672
That would be hilarious.

>>472644

You use your eye as if you had a magnifying glass and scour this room, but absolutely nothing about it was unordinary. Damn! Adrian is starting to look concerned, “Hey are you okay?” “Okay? I am trying to find our missing friends.” “Yeah.., but don’t you think you are looking in the wrong spot?” on process what Adrian said over in your brain. “OF COURSE!” “of course what!” “The fact that this room is so normal despite our situation means that there must be some sort of illusion magic for sure going on here!” Damn if the illusional barrier is still set up somewhere you need to find that first. Might as well keep tracking backwards.

Next would be the attendant outside the hot springs. You and Adrian make your way there, “Excuse me ma’am do you know where the rest of my friends are?” you mean your colorful entourage. Yes, they are still in the hot springs” You grew tired of this, but you had to check everywhere. Even if it was the same place twice. Alright, then we are going in. you grab Adrian and pull him in with you. The attendant tries to stop you. “Wait please, he isn’t supposed to-” You blew her off. You had to check this and you refused to leave Adrian behind at any point during this. You are once again in the changing room. Everything seems exactly as you left it with Adrian a minute earlier, except this one has a bit more clothes in the baskets, must be some new people got in while you were fiddling about.

>>472684

While walking around you hear from the entrance to the hot springs. “-Yes it is nice to relax,” “She should really be here with us too, she is the one that needs the most rest out of all of us I’d say.” Could it be?! You drag Adrian with you as you burst through the curtain to the springs. You were greeted by the sight of all of your friends Naked in a spring, “Everyone I am so glad that you are-” “KYAAAAAHHHHH!” Yuki screamed and covered herself. “Yuki what is wrong?” You brought… him?” Adrian was looking in completely the opposite direction of all this. He knew they would kill him if he tried to turn. “Yuki you don’t understand I had to take him with me. There seems to be an illusion trap set up around here. I came from the hot spring to the parlor the hot springs where Adrian was, to the parlor to here again. This place is a maze and we need to find those responsible for turning this spa into a mess!” Aki speaks softly, “You need to calm down,” “Calm down! But we are in potential danger! Why would I calm down in this situation? “Rozalin chuckles, “That's because there are two different sections to the hot springs dear.” “Two different sections?” “Yes, one is for men while the other is for women. As you can see all of the women are here while Adrian, the poor soul was by himself across this wall." She knocks on the wood behind her. “But that’s, not what… oh god.” You fall to your knees. “How could I have, just missed all that.” You grab your head in frustration at your own self. Aki starts to speak again gently, “You need to calm down, I know you work really hard to keep everyone safe but you are on the edge of paranoia. Please just relax for now.” You don’t know if you can. After what just happened you were incredibly stressed and embarrassed but you would have to try.

Adrian was sent back to his section and you spent the rest of your time sulking in the waters with your friends trying to console you. You and they both knew you didn’t do anything wrong, but Aki was right, you are starting to get a little paranoid. Once everything was over you all rejoined outside the spa. “Ahhh! That felt great!” Rozalin stretches, “It really did do wonders for my back,” Anna comments. Ironically all of you friends felt incredibly refreshed, except you who was the one who suggested this in the first place. You just wanted to go home and sleep off this embarrassment and stress.

You want to sleep, but in the back of your mind you keep hearing, “Are you okay, you’re acting paranoid, you need to calm down. You’re over thinking things, relax. Relax!” you groan a bit to yourself, who knew relaxing would be such a hard thing to do now. You want to relax but you also feel responsible for your friends, and if something happened to them because of your own failures… you clutch your friendship locket with Yuki.

“Aww she is sad is she?” “But who is she afraid of?” “Us?” “No, she is afraid of herself…” “interesting, the master will be-” “SHUT UP!” You lost a bit of mental fortitude in that moment and let the shadows in once more. You continue to hold onto the friendship locket. Damn, why are these things happening? You curl up and bury your head between your knees

You feel a soft knock at your door. It was one of your friends who wanted to check on you.

“You know it's hard to sleep like that.” You raise your head to meet the voice of your best friend Yuki. You didn’t want her to worry too much about you so you try to play it off, “Yeah, curled up like this doesn’t really work I guess.” “That isn’t the problem…” Yuki walks over and sits down in front of you. “You’re crying” “No I am…” It was now that you noticed the tears running down your face. “I-I am not, *sniff* I-I can’t afford to… *sniff*. Yuki then embraces you and whispers softly, “It’s okay,” "Not it’s not." You were responsible for everyone and if you messed up at any point it could be over. “Yuki you don’t understand If I *sniff* am not able to…” “Shhh, it’s okay” “but!” She hugs to tighter. “You don’t have to push yourself so hard,” “but if I don’t then…” “We will suffer? You need to have more faith in your friends.” “It’s not that I don’t *sniff* have faith I’m just afraid, of losing any of you.” You now return Yuki’s hug in kind.” “I don’t ever want to let go and risk losing someone,” “But if you hold on so tight, you’ll lose yourself. You are already running yourself ragged being the strong leader, never showing fear and only thinking of others. You don’t always have to be that person, you can be a normal friend, like your old self….. Don’t you understand, the way you are right now…” *sniff* Now it was Yuki’s turn to cry, “... If you keep going like you are now *sniff* you’ll kill yourself!” “Yuki..” “Can’t you see that everyone is concerned? You are taking on way too much responsibility and it is driving down a dangerous path. *sniff* You can care about us as much as you want… but what about how much we care about you…” “Yuki, I just want you and everyone to be safe…” “What does that mean if you die as the result!” she grew louder and held you tighter. “I don’t want to lose you, *sniff* no one wants to lose you. So please, stop taking everything on your shoulders… All of us, want to help, so please, slow down. *sniff* you don’t have to be the sole one holding up your friends, let us help hold each other up instead.” “Yuki…” Yuki pulls back from her hug slightly so that your faces are in clear view of each other. With tears in her eyes, she smiles, “After all… that’s what friends are for right?”

>>473568

Yuki always did now just how to talk to you, but I guess that is why you two have been best friends for years. Her smiling face and warm personality were one of her many great traits. And at this moment you were truly glad that she was your best friend. You try to rub the tears out of your eyes “Okay Yuki.. from now no more of bearing the world on my shoulders and no more sulking…” She rubs the tears out of her own eyes, “That’s good, it’s terrible for your complexion.” After a short giggle at her own comment, Yuki softly says “You know if you want me to I can stay with you tonight. I know you will be okay, for now, I want to support you the most I can.”

“Sure Yuki, I would appreciate it,” “hehe then we shall work to change this dreadful mood.” She bounces up from her spot and runs to grab her things. She returns with lightning speed and in full Pajamas. “Now then this will be just like old times, Now to stylize!” Yuki grabbed what seemed to be a massive stylist kit with dozens of tools and made her way to your hair. “Wait no! I like it like this. You also just got done at the spa so why would she do this? “I’m doing it for fun of course. We need to test out some more looks on you anyways.” You can’t really tell her no when she gets like this, she’ll just force it on you one way or another. She starts to work her signature “magic” on your hair. Pulling, turning, twisting you name it. She must have tried everything she could with your hair, but your short shaggy locks didn’t allow for much work. “Phooey this is hard! Your hair can’t get as easily fixed as your clothes can. Speaking of which how were they today? You blush and think back to Aki saying you looked cute with the skirt on. “I think… it was alright.” You’ll at least where the skirt over your pants. “Wonderful now we’ll just set you up on a strict regiment of outfit swamps. Mondays will be what you have on, Tuesdays will be an alteration with the blouse, Wednesdays will be….” and there she goes. You sigh and just wait for this storm to pass. But after a bit, she changes the tone of your conversation. Nothing heavy like before but one that is a little more, you don’t know, sensitive?

Yuki was combing your hair, “So I noticed that you and Aki are much closer than usual,” “Yeah she did get a little out of hand sometimes but she means well.” “I think it’s fairly obvious to everyone that you two are infatuated with each other at this point. At least to me and Rozalin it is apparent.” You never outright told your friends about your relationship with Aki but no doubt it would have been obvious at this point. “You love her, don’t you,” “Yeah... I do…” when you say that you feel the comb Yuki was using shake a bit in your hair. “Whoops, sorry about that, I’ll start over from the top.” “Okay..” a moment of silence hung in the room. Yuki was the first to break it, “Well I am happy for you, to think that you would find someone here of all places. Guess this place was good for at least something. But I have to ask. Have you ever thought about… others? I know Rozalin practically throws herself at you, but I think that is only her personality. What would you say if she seriously or others seriously loved you…”

That seems like an awfully serious question after that “Trial by Style” she worked you through.

No way we are dating the rape horse or Adrian.

>>473939
We have other party members.

>>473947
Yes, but right now the answer would be "I have no idea" or Aki.

Also I am not fond of the rape menbers of the team like the Imp mother.

>>473955
We can exlude Rozalin, Adrian and imps which leaves Victoria, Anna, Yuki and Aki

>>473963
Then changing my vote to "Maybe if Aki is okay, I would be willing to share with others too, but not with those who think they can do anything they want with me."

>>473979
"I am willing to share with others if Aki is okay with them and they aren't pushy."

>>473979
This works since moat people don't want to be Aki exclusive. And also because we should really ask Aki first.

We should also finally ask someone about monster girl morals since most of them or at least half of them seem to think rape is okay even when is another girl and not their instincts going crazy.

Oh and go to see Baba Yaga to find out if we are cursed, that's a good idea.

>>474022
Yes. We might not trust her much but she keeps her word. Also if every time we are down we are going to hear voices then we will go crazy eventually.

So, what would have happened if we keep that cow girl with us?

“Well I haven’t fully thought about it yet but It would have to figure it out in the moment, but I guess yeah I am open to thinking like that” Yuki seems surprised, “Y-You are?” “Is that wrong?” “Oh no no no, I was just surprised since how much you seem to be enthralled with Aki.” “I guess you’re right, but If I were to do something like that I want to talk to her first.” “That would probably be a good idea. She is a nice girl and it would be terrible to go around and do stuff like that without telling her.” “Ultimately it is your decision and I will be your best friend regardless hehe…” I guess this whole thing was part of Yuki’s “girl talk. Maybe you should join in. “What about you Yuki, last time we talked you said that there was someone you loved but they didn’t know, have you ever thought about someone else. Yuki quickly flusters, “Heavens no! They are the only one for me!” “Well, they must be one lucky person to have you that devoted to them. Yuki whispers under her breath “She sure is” You didn’t quite catch that, “Did you say something?” “No, I was just thinking about your hair. It really is a mess to straighten. I have been coming for almost 30 minutes.” “Haha.”

The rest of that night was pleasant, just you and Yuki talking, keeping each other company and of course sleeping. That night you learned a valuable lesson as of leadership. A leader is nothing without its fellows and the fellows are nothing without the leader. You can’t sacrifice one for the other. All you can do is move forward together. While you were in bed you looked over to Yuki who volunteered to take the couch. You were lucky you had such good friends like her.

Unlike the night before that night of sleep was not the best, but after your talk with Yuki you a lot more relaxed. The morning came faster than you wanted it to, but you awoke in the morning to a guard at your door. “Excuse me, hero, The Queen requests your presence.”

“One moment.” you call to the guard, “Yuki we need to get up and check on the others real fast. They might be worried about us.” “What are you talking about I wanted the blouse on the left not the right…” Great, she’s still asleep. You shake her, “YUKI!” she jolts awake “ME?!” “C’mon lets check on the others then meet with the Queen.” “Oh, okay.” You two change quickly and explain to the guard outside your room, “Please inform her that we will be there with everyone in just a few minutes.” He nods and walks off. You then head to the lobby you all have been using as a meeting place for the past couple days.

Anna greeted you two as you entered the lobby,“Hey there sleepy heads” “Hey everyone, the Queen wants to talk to us so we should head over there. But I have to check on something real fast so I’ll meet you guys there.” Rozalin sighs, “Well alright then..” Your friends all turn to leave but when Aki turns you grab her arm. “Is something wrong, uff” you jumped up and gave her a hug. “Well this is a little unexpected in the morning, are you feeling better.” You smile, “Yup, and I just wanted you to know how lucky I am to have you as a girlfriend. She turns bright red. “G-G-G-G-G-Girlfriend?!” “Haha, yup.” you squeeze harder. Once you got your fill of Aki’s cute embarrassment you two headed toward the audience chamber.

You walk up and address the Queen, “Queen Kanon we are sorry for the delay, but why have you called for us?” The Queen then announces, “I have called you here because Wilhelm has informed me that your orders will be finished today.” “Really?!” To make custom arms and armors for 7 people, in only 3 days?!” How was that even possible. “Thank you, your majesty, We shall head to Wilhelm’s shop post haste. You leave the audience chamber to and you can feel the excitement radiating from your allies Yuki was the first to speak, “Man I wonder what kind of weapon I will get, I hope it isn’t anything too dangerous.” she twiddles her thumbs. Rozalin adds, “Well I just hope my armor will be breathable, I went to great lengths to request it of him, and hiding my assets is unacceptable.” figures she would think that. The most excited member of your team though was Adrian, “AAAAWWWWW YEAH! Finally my own weapon and armor. I bet I’ll get the cool hero paladin type armor with a greatsword or something like that. Oh oh, maybe a dark night with a lance or a scythe!” If there were walls outside to bounce off of he would be right now.

It was only a short walk to Wilhelms shop and he was even waiting for you all outside. He looked tired and covered in dust and soot. “Everyone! I am so glad you came I must say these armors and weapons were the most arduous experiences ever to make, but I think my hard work will be worth it. " Wilhelm beckoned you all into his shop.


working on fashion now, but I didn't want to delay a post because of it

>>474415
Adrian: Why does my outfit has a fake monkey tail?

Wilhelms: For aesthetics, it will fall off if you grow a real tail.

>>474458
And then Adrian was a saiyan.

>>474465
Or a monster girl

>>474415

You all entered kindly except Adrian who just ran straight in. Once inside Wilhelm readress you all, “Without further ado I give you my masterpieces. He pulls down a curtain dramatically in front of a wall to reveal his works of art. There were weapons galore and all of them had small specialties added to them. Not to mention the varieties in armors, some were white and simple, others were black and had spikes. You honestly had no idea which one was yours thought you were pretty sure it wasn’t the horse armor.

Wilhelm addresses you first. “As the leader, it is only fitting you receive your piece first. Firstly I present you with this half plate armor I made. He motions toward the half plate, It was glowing white with black detailings and trims that ran down the whole piece. It was sleek but you could tell that it was heavier armor. There looked to be some detailing on the chest piece of buck antlers the shoulder plates had almost unnoticeable feather details that with black tinges. While the and guards were designed similarly unnoticeably to depict a lion’s claws. Wilhelm explains, “This piece represents how you feel yourself, a change, but not just metaphorically but I was able to enchant the armor to adapt to your future changes.” “So you mean it will grow with me, precisely.” “Wow, thanks, Wilhelm this is perfect for me.” The smith smiles, “Your words touch my heart, but that's not all. He then hands you two short swords. These are your arms. When looking at them closer one is a standard short blade but there is a skull engraved on it. And the second blade was a dagger of some sorts? But no dagger you have ever seen. It had notches and intends all along the back side. “Wilhelm what exactly is this?” That is a sword breaker dear miss, it is meant for parrying. Nice, but what about your magic.” “Wilhelm I didn’t tell you but I sometimes channel death magic when fighting.” “That is alright, the sword breaker is small enough that you could freely channel with it in your hand.” Perfect! You're blown away at how he took everything into account when designing your custom sets this young man must have been an incredible smith.

“Next, we have you Yuki, for you, I created a light set of white medium chainmail armor, trimmed with yellow and gold and have made some upgrades with your glaive to a halberd and I added in a bow just in case. Yuki was equally blown away “I don’t know what to say, it is more than I could ever ask for.” The back of Yuki's armor had wings detailed into it in gold.

“Now we have Anna, for you, I created a medium armor similar to Yuki’s but it is both firmer for frontline combat and flexible. The armor was a medium chain mail of gray color and had a barely visible set of swords on the back. Her helm had a small crown detailed on the side, but that too was barely noticeable. “As well I have made you a pair of swords, you informed me that you materialize your weapons bu a warrior should always have backups. I made these blades lighter than most but for lack of weight it makes up for in sharpness and speed. “Thank you, Wilhelm, I shall put them to good use.”

“Next, we have the young miss Victoria,” She scoffs at him. As the miss suggested I created a light to medium set of armor. I’m afraid it is rather basic, but I did manage to detail it a bit.” The armor was almost flat black with streaks of silver running across it. Victoria didn’t seem to care either way, “Meh, it's fine, it doesn’t matter what I wear.” Anna seems appalled at her attitude. “How can you say that! This man made beautiful items just for you, and you say it is just fine?” “Look I can make due with whatever if I have fancy shit like this it is only a bonus.” “Why you!” You grab Anna’s shoulder. There was no need for this to happen here. The master smith continues his show, “Miss I also created these for you.” Wilhelm reveals a pair of cestus and a Kanabo. Victoria swings the Kanabo around. “So it’s a club?” “Essentially,” “Sweet.”

>>475956

Victoria was rather easily pleased with weapons if not at all appreciative. Next though was Aki. “For the lady basilisk I created a set of medium scale mail. The mail was colored to match her normal attire since she seems to be so fond of it. There was a small detailing of two snakes entwined near the lower back of the armor done in a contrasting red color. “Thank you master smith.” She bows politely and accepts her gift.

Next came your “favorite” and only bicorn that just wanted to have a good time. She received gear that was almost all spiky and black not to mention scandalous in some areas. It reminded you a lot of traditional knight armor from back home only sexier you guess. The detailing on the armor was done in a faint pink that tran across the armor and worked to highly, “areas”. Most noticeably her chest. “Oh, it is simply wonderful Wilhelm!” The bicorn jamps and hugs the smith. He is taken a bit back by her forwardness but after a moment treats it like nothing happened. “We haven’t gotten to your weapons miss Rozalin,” he motions his hand to revial a black lance and a dark longsword with a black pommel. “Marvelous!” She seemed quite impressed As the bicorn was turning to take her spot back at your side Wilhelm adds. “Also I outfited this saddle for you since you asked for it.” “Oh, the most important peice!" She grabs the riding tool and while she does so she gives you a look. You know, her usual “look”.

Finally, we had Adrian who has been eagerly awaiting his present this whole time. He was jumping in place and has been since you first got your gear. Wilhelm addresses the young man, “Adrian for you I have crafted an armor most fitting to you.” “You hear that guy an armor that is perfect for just me!” He gloated. Despite the fact that, that was the point of all of this in the first place. The smith continues, “Here we are!” Once again he pulls back the curtain dramatically to reveal a curious set of armor. It had an odd mixture though of both ornate ancient armor and minor tribal influence, creating an odd ornate armor that appeared tribal, but wasn't.. Adrian even got a hat for good measure. But that hat was also a curious thing. It was a small crown but it had two long objects that looked like feathers coming out of the top and arcing and falling behind the armor. The leggings for the armor set was much more temperate but it reminded you a bit of a mixture between monk pants and ornately crafted ancient armor. The back of the armor had a- “haha” you laugh a bit to yourself as the back of the armor had a fake tail coming off of it. “So it is monkey armor?” Anna asks, "Precisely! Adrian told me of his wild moves and over the top antics, I figured the symbolism was perfect, but that is in no way a bad thing you understand. This is the armor a monkey king would wear! And I even made this Bo staff for his own optimal use." Needless to say, Adrian was stunned., He was so in awe that he completely stopped moving at all. He weakly said, “So it’s a monkey?” “Monkey king!” Victoria chided in correcting him. “Oh, okay…” he weakly faced the master smith, “thank you for the kind gift.” “Not at all! It was a pleasure to even work on this fine piece, I must admit yours was the object of most of my attention in getting the details just right." Looking at it now it was quite ornately crafted. It had red cloth running off of it under the arm plates creating tassels, intermingling colors of orange, yellow and red woven into the armor. It was by far the fanciest piece of armor you could see a monkey wearing. “Is that so… I am honored.” Adrian turns to walk outside slowly with his head hung low. “I’ll see you guys in a minute I have to use the bathroom…” “Oh, okay.” He slowly and silently walks outside the tent the next five seconds were also quiet as Wilhelm began is wrapping up of his presentation. “Thank you all for- “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!” A loud shriek was heard outside followed by some loud smacking noises as something was pounding the dirt outside. Yuki says to you , “I’ll make sure he is okay.” “Alright, thanks, Yuki.”

>>476005

Your attention turns back the the smith. “As I was saying, That you all for allowing me to work on just fine pieces of arms and armor. I am o the mind that there is always room for improvement, but I try my absolute hardest to chase perfection.” You shake your hands in front of you, “No Wilhelm, thank you. Without you, we would be just as ill-equipped as we have been until now. Your crafts will make our lives much easier and for that, we can never be more grateful. The smith smiles, “Don’t mention it, and if you ever have need of a smith call me up, I love blacksmithing for all types of people!” You'll keep that in mind.

You turned to leave but then you remember, “Oh Wilhelm?” “Yes?” “Do you have a pair of daggers we could use and maybe some light basic black cloth armor. “Something that basic of course. I may be a master smith but one does not create such fine ornate crafts without knowledge of tailoring or jewel crafting.” he hands you a pair of daggers and two pieces of cloth robes. “Thank you again, Wilhelm, I wish you the best.” “As do I you” With those final words you leave the smith’s shop.

Yuki was tending to Adrian outside who was sobbing and slamming his head repeatedly into the dirt. While the rest of your group is now watching you expectantly. You received your arms and armor so you have no need to stay here anymore, but where will your journey take you next you wonder.

Some things that are not on the map. There is a northern continent that is less hospitable and supposedly worse than the Accursed Lands.

To the east past lake, Biwa is a an island who according to mother has people steeped in tradition and combat culture.

There is also an archipelago off the western coast near the Mikawa river.

You are currently at the very top of the Felsong Forest
