Beast Bane Town was a large town, built along several hills. Large walls expanded out from the town, sectioning it off between various different families and districts.

It also had a large tower within the centre, obviously the Town Lord’s estate, though it was different to those in other cities, because it was much wide, more like an entire district within each floor.

“Halt,” the guard called out, raising a hand to stop the carriage. “Do you have any papers?”

Ken didn’t have any papers, unfortunately, but he did have something else. The escorts had been waiting for him, and watched as Ken opened the door with a bright smile on his face.

[Why is this little shit smiling?]

The guards, who were constantly on edge, hated someone bright like this Young Master coming into their town. It seemed that he needed to be a taught a lesson.

“I’m afraid I don’t have any papers, but I do have-“

“No papers? Do you think you can just waltz in to this town as you please?” The guard glared down at Ken.

“Of course not, but I do have something else which might interested the wonderful guards of this town. In fact, we were going to speak with the Town Lord soon, but I guess we can show our sincerity first.”

[Sincerity?]

The guard calmed down quickly, understanding where this was headed. He cleared his throat. “Sincerity, you say?”

“That’s right,” Ken said. “Just a moment.” Ken then retreated into the carriage before then appearing at the window, holding out a small pouch made of fabric filled with something.

The guards wondered how they should react to this, since it was so open and brazen. Usually, he would slide a few coins into their hands, not reveal a large pouch.

“Are you trying to bribe us with coins?” The guard had to pretend to be angry so that people wouldn’t be upset.

“Coins? Not at all.” Ken wiggled the pouch.

The guards looked between one another and stepped forward. He took the pouch, realising it was filled with small circular objects. He opened the pouch and saw a large number of pills.

“Th-this is!”

“Aren’t those…”

“Low grade, middle grade, and… a high grade earth pill?” The guards looked between one another again. They then slowly looked up to Ken, who was smiling at them.

“I hope they’re fine,” Ken said. “I tried really hard to make them, you know?”

“!!!”

“You!”

“You’re a…”

“I’m Disciple Ken, and I have come with my master, Alchemist Emerald, in order to continue our journey into the Way of Alchemy.”

The guards screamed internally.

[Kya!]

[Oh no!]

They had just offended the disciple of an Alchemist. Even if they were dragged along the streets, that wouldn’t be enough. They turned pale, their eyes wide, a waterfall of sweat falling down their faces.

“I had eyes but could not see!” The guard placed his hands together and bowed deeply.

“Please forgive our impudence, Disciple Ken! Had we known we were in such a grand presence, we wouldn’t have dared to ask for papers.”

“It’s no matter,” Ken said. “Though my master does wish to quickly arrive at an inn. It’s been a long journey.” Ken continued to smile innocently, but the guards could see the vicious look within his eyes.

“Y-yes! Of course!”

“Those pills are for the guards, so make sure you take good care of them until they are needed. We’ll be heading to the Town Lord soon, so we’ll pay our respects when we next meet him.”

“It’s as you say!” The guards quickly allowed the Alchemist’s disciple in.

“Are you alright, master?” Nimi asked. Ken had been treated like this often, she noticed, and it must still bother him even if he wasn’t a cripple.

“This is just as expected.” Ken reached over and pet her head. The others stared, envious of the head patting. “I’m fine. It’s not as bad as before, so I don’t really mind.”

They travelled to an inn near the centre of the town, where they would be able to shop for a large number of things soon.

“This is where we’ll part, Disciple Ken,” the escorts said, bowing their heads to him. Ken signed off on their contract, handing them their coin, and had them sign off too, before they left to the Escort Pavilion.

He and the others went to the inn, with Chandi and Nimi taking guard, and Yuri remaining nearby. It was easy enough to dismiss the fact that one of his slaves at with him, since he could say she wasn’t a typical slave.

Ken sighed as he sat down and remained still for a long moment. The others looked at him, but then Yuri motioned for a worker, who arrived quickly to take her order. As she ordered food for everyone, Ken placed down a gold coin.

“I’m sure this will be enough to pay for drinks tonight for everyone?” Ken looked up to the worker, who saw the glittering gold.

“Y-yes, Young Master!”

Ken continued to smile. “Good! Drinks on this disciple!” He flicked the gold coin over to the worker, who caught it.

The others looked over at him and raised their glasses.

“Cheers to the Young Master!”

“What great fortune the Young Master brings!”

The other patrons became more lively, and those who wanted to keep their head down, also had to join in order to not appear to be suspicious.

[Where did this kid come from?]

[Is he in our way?]

Ken then ordered lots of meat with his dishes, eating it a little too quickly. He almost choked on the meat, washing it down with some wine.

“Let’s get wasted!” Ken said to his women, grinning wide. “We’re finally in a proper town!”

The air around the town reminded him of home. He could feel something tug at his heart, causing him to grow colder, but he drank away the coldness with the wine. The alcohol managed to push away the cold, replacing it with a tipsy warmth.

The women looked between another, but they could see what he was doing. They joined in too, drinking with him happily.

Emerald was about to pour the wine for him, but realised she needed to act like his Master. She sipped her wine slowly, and ate her fruit and vegetables in peace, allowing Yuri to deal with him.

“Drink as much as you like, Disciple Ken,” Yuri said. They were in an awkward spot, since Emerald was now Ken’s Master, but Ken was still technically their Master, but secretly. They needed to treat him properly, well, but not too well.

Still, they allowed him to get a little crazy this evening, letting him eat and drink in peace.

Once Ken was drunk enough, hiccuping repeatedly and almost passing out, Emerald looked to Chan. The one armed wolf girl picked Ken up by the back of his shirt and carried him up to a large room, which Yuri had ordered for him and Emerald.

“Master, aren’t you a little drunk?” Chan whispered into his ear once she had put him down on the bed.

Ken looked up at Chan, reaching up with a hand to grab the back of her head. He pulled her in and then kissed her, though his lips met her mask first. He pulled it off, causing Chan to gasp, and then pulled her in for a passionate kiss.

Their lips met and crushed together, and Chan weakened under her Master’s touch. He pulled her in closer, letting her body fall on top of his.

He could feel her slightly muscular body up against his, and she could feel something hardening up against her thigh. She was blushing hard, feeling the heat of their passion fill her.

Ken’s hand rubbed down her back, reaching to her ass, and he gave it a squeeze.

“Mf! Master!” Chan broke the kiss and stared down at him. “We shouldn’t do this right now.”

“I want to,” Ken replied back, reaching up with his free hand to hold the back of her head, his fingers slipping into her hair.

“I think we should wait for the others, Master…” Chan was propping herself with her one good hand.

“Let’s do some play right now while we wait.” He smirked and then tried to lean in to kiss her. As he did, he felt her slip a pill into his mouth as they kiss. He swallowed down the pill, not thinking anything of it, and then felt his body cool down.

He was still squeezing her ass, but slowly his grip loosened on both her hair and ass. Then, finally, he slipped his hands away from her.

He stared up at her innocent eyes, which were blinking down at him. He then reached up and spanked her gently, causing her to whimper and her ears to droop.

“We’ll wait for them,” Ken said, having sobered up thanks to the pill.

[It’s dangerous to just swallow pills like that.]

Though there was no way Chan would do something like that.

Right?
