Sigh… That was… exciting… Narias was on his way back to campus. He let out a deep sigh, with the images of seven gorgeous, stunning, and almost naked women constantly flashing in his mind. I never expected for Madam Froxen to offer ‘that’ kind of solution. Still, it worked out in the end. And they were some beautiful looking… Baah… I won’t get rid of those images from my head any time soon. I’m so looking forward to a cold bath when I get back to my dorm. A really, really cold bath.

It was an experience like no other. For Narias at least. Apparently, it wasn’t anything new at Madam Froxen’s shop. Of course, that kind of service wasn’t offered just to anyone, and it wasn’t like it was some strip show in some cheap brothel either. That was a genuine way for Norella Froxen to learn the measurements of someone. After Narias and the white fox shop owner met again, in order to discuss what kind of dress he’d like to be made, Madam Froxen told him a little bit about how that kind of service came about.

Even at the very beginning, when Norella Froxen began to craft garments, she’d have many clients want to order something as a gift. Unfortunately, they wouldn’t know the measurements of the person for whom they wanted to buy the gift for. As such, it was very difficult to get it right for Madam Froxen and she had many unhappy clients as a result. So, she had to learn how to solve the measurements problem or else she risked to go out of business.

That’s when the idea had struck her. It was a risky move at the time, but the rewards out weighted the risks. Fast forward to this day, and Norella’s Froxen business is booming. She made a name for herself not only as one of the best garment crafters out there, but also as someone who always gets it right. Of course, her services are much more expensive compared to any other crafter out there, but she always delivers on her promises and beyond.

One thing that Madam Froxen mentioned was that the service she offered Narias is for the clients only. Neither she, nor the people who work for her, talk about it in public. Everything that happens at her shop, stays in her shop. That’s not to say, she offers ‘additional’ services on the side. Absolutely not. But she keeps it confidential none the less. Her shop’s regular patrons know about it, but keep it to themselves as well. And the service is available for both men and women alike. She has men models work for her too who help when the need arises.

That is quite a business model. But the garments Madam Froxen makes are really outstanding. Maybe I could buy gifts for my girlfriends at some point as well? For their birthdays, for example. It’s a little expensive and I would need to save up before I could buy something from her shop again, but Madam said she will be more than happy to help me again. Watching all those women pose in front of me was quite a treat, and I wouldn’t mind to see them again if… Huh? Wait… What am I saying? I could simply ask my girlfriends their measurements. Doh… Narias threw one hand on his face, finally realizing he was becoming hot again. Sigh… I really need a cold bath.

Narias kept his word to himself. The first thing he did when he got back to his room, was to go have a prolonged cold, almost freezing, bath. It didn’t help him forget the show, but it certainly cooled his certain body parts real good.

 

{later in the week at the main school hall}

 

“Hey, how did your group do, buddy?” One student was asking another.

“Well, we passed… just barely,” his friend answered.

“Nice, congratulations. Our group has passed as well,” the first student said.

“Great. Well done,” the second congratulated him back.

“Hey, hey, did you hear about the Centurian Conquerors team?” A third student joined in the conversation.

“Who? Centureevan what? Pfff… Ahaha! What kind of name is that?” The first student started to laugh.

“Centurian Conquerors team. They are at the top of the list. They have defeated the Fanged Whitemane Wolf even,” the third one explained in more detail.

“What? Really? They must be really awesome,” the same first student suddenly changed his tune.

“Hey, didn’t you make fun of their name just a moment ago?” The second boy student frowned at him.

“Do you know which student club Centurian Conquerors team belong to? The first one asked, ignoring his friend’s question.

“The Elite Magicians, of course,” the second one intervened.

“No, they’re not. Majority of the students from the Centurian Conquerors team belong to some small student club. I don’t even know its name. The Elite Magicians club had three teams and one of their teams placed second. The other two teams ended up being forth and sixth,” the third boy student explained.

“What? Really? It must be a really awesome student club. I need to find out what it is,” the first boy student exclaimed.

“For sure. If they placed first, they must be incredible. Maybe if I join their club…” the second boy was thinking out loud.

“Hey, I want to join their club too,” their friend added.

“Right. Let’s find out more about it,” all of them agreed on it.

It was Friday and the main school hall was bustling with students. The Magic Dungeon exploration results were in and everyone wanted to know how well they did. But the biggest talk of the day was the top team on the list with the weirdest team name anyone has heard of.

“So awesome, they got over two hundred points. The Elite Magicians club’s team ended up being second. And look at the difference in points. No way, who are those guys from the Centurian Conquerors team? Wow, that name sounds so badass. I wonder what ‘Centurian’ means…” these and similar comments were heard among the first-year students who came to check their scores. Everyone was impressed by how well the Centurian Conquerors team did.

“Heck, yeah! We’re first!” Flavia cheered so loud she startled the other students around her.

“Flavia…” Narias felt uncomfortable for the scene his bunny girlfriend caused.

“You don’t have to shout, Flavia,” Ileena was pretending to adjust her glasses, or that she didn’t know who Flavia was. Might’ve been both.

“First place. Cool,” Growly grinned happily, which made him look a little bit intimidating too.

“Wow, congratulations,” Nicky congratulated them, quietly chuckling to herself at the same time.

“That… was to be expected. Congratulations, Narias,” Ileena congratulated her boyfriend as well.

“Expected? That’s not what you said two days ago, Ileena. And why are congratulating only Narias. Me and Growly were part of the group as well,” Flavia snapped at her, feeling upset she was left out.

“Congratulations to you too… for being part of Narias group,” Ileena felt like being snappy for some reason.

“Why you…” the bunny girl felt like picking a fight.

“Now, now. Calm down. I’m sure Ileena was just teasing you, Flavia,” Narias stepped in.

“Of course I was. You’re being too emotional, Flavia. I know you and Growly did very well during the run. You’re just… being too loud,” Ileena told her, letting out a deep sigh.

“You should’ve said so from the beginning,” Flavia tried to pretend to be upset, but her sparkling eyes showed she was happy about what Ileena had said.

“Hey, hey, are you guys from the Centurlan Conquerors team?” An unfamiliar boy student suddenly asked the group.

“Huh? Centurlan?” Narias made a weird facial expression.

“It is called Centurian Conquerors,” Ileena corrected the boy in her usual, serious tone.

“Right, right, sorry. Say, I want to join your student club,” the boy’s apology didn’t sound sincere, but his last words sounded very much serious.

“Sorry, our club is not recruiting at the moment,” it took only half a second for Ileena to respond.

“What? Why not? I want to join your club,” the boy student insisted.

“Hey, this is them. You’re the Conquerors team, right? I want to join your student club,” another boy student joined in.

“Yes, me too, please,” a girl student approached them next. More students were gathering around too.

“What? Huh?” Narias and his friends became surrounded by the other students in no time.

“Please, I want to join too. You guys are awesome, I want to join Citruvian Conquerors student club as well. Yeah, sign me up. I want to be part of Centeruns student club too,” more and more requests were heard around them.

What… is going on here? And… our team name is Centurian Conquerors, not the… Sigh… whatever… Narias didn’t know what to think.

“Hey, don’t push. Wha… whoah!” Someone bumped into Flavia, almost tripping her to fall down.

“Ouch…” Nicky was hit with the elbow by someone. It was an accident due to more and more students pushing each other to get closer to the group, but it still hurt.

“Make space,” Growly stepped in to help Nicky.

“Eeek! S… sorry, so sorry,” the student stepped back after seeing Growly’s sharp teeth.

“Thanks Growly,” Nicky was grateful for his help.

“No… problem,” the furry boy stood tall, happy he could help.

“Can you… give us some space, please?” Narias tried to be polite, but it didn’t look like his plea was heard by anyone.

“If anyone pushes me again, I’m gonna smash their head on the floor,” Flavia was really getting annoyed.

Who knows how far the other students would’ve gone if not for an unexpected interference by a certain teacher.

“What is going on here?” A familiar, stern male voice addressed the crowd.

“Eeek… P… Professor Zeanlor…” someone mentioned his name and the rest of the student froze in their spots.

“Would you mind letting me through, please?” The slim teacher’s voice sounded like the most intimidating threat.

“S… sorry professor. Please,” the students were stepping aside to let him through.

“Mister Talrone, mind explaining what is happening here?” Karineus Zeanlor asked in a calm, emotionless voice.

“Hello Professor Zeanlor. We… came here to check our dungeon exploration results and…” Narias didn’t finish his sentence, probably not wanting to badmouth the other students.

“All these jerks started bothering us all of a sudden,” Flavia finished his sentence for him, not holding back with what she thought either. But then quickly realized she might’ve been too bold this time. “Ah… I mean… Sorry…”

“Perhaps… you acted in a way to upset the other students?” The tall, slim teacher addressed Flavia this time.

“No… of course not. I… I’m sorry for what I said earlier… but they…” Flavia was having a hard time explaining herself.

“If I may sir?” Ileena stepped forward.

“Yes, Miss Sanli?” Professor Zeanlor turned to her.

“We came here to check the Magic Dungeon exploration results and…” Ileena explained everything in a calm, detailed manner.

“I see,” Karineus turned to the other students standing nearby. “I would like to believe all of you are aware of the procedures on how one can join a student club, do you not?”

“Eek… Y… yes, sir,” the students shivered.

“Good. I expect you to follow those procedures going forward,” the tall, slim teacher reprimanded the students.

“Yes, sir,” all of them answered almost instantaneously.

“Excellent,” said Karineous Zeanlor, still without a hint of emotions in his voice, then turned to Narias again. “Mister Talrone.”

“Yes, sir,” Narias became somewhat tense as well.

“Congratulations to you, and your team, on placing first at the Magic Dungeon exploration test,” the tall professor congratulated him calmly.

“Oh, thank you, Professor Zeanlor,” Narias thanked the teacher, becoming relaxed as well.

“Keep up the good work and… I’ll see you all at my classes next week,” Karineous Zeanlor placed his hands behind his back, turning to go.

“Yes. Have a pleasant weekend, Professor Zeanlor,” Narias wished him, bowing his head.

“Thank you,” said the teacher and walked away.

“Phew, that was intense,” Flavia let out a sigh of relief.

“I told you were being too emotional, Flavia,” Ileena made a remark.

“Yeah, but…” the bunny girl was about to think of some kind of excuse.

“I understand how you feel, Flavia, but Ileena is right. Sometimes it is better to stay calm,” Narias commented, with the best of intentions.

“Well… I guess you’re right, partner,” Flavia rubbed the back of her head.

“Excuse me… please,” a boy student asked somewhat timidly.

“Yes?” Ileena threw him a stern glance.

“S… sorry, I just… wanted to know how can I join your student club?” The boy student asked.

“You’ll have to fill out an application form,” Ileena answered, adjusting her glasses at the same time.

“Right, of course. Where can I get one?” The same student asked.

“Yeah, me too. I want one too, please,” more students made requests as well.

“I’ll have some ready on Monday,” Ileena’s eyes sparkled with a suspicious tenacity.

Huh? I know that look in Ileena’s eyes. She won’t make it easy for those students. Narias recognized the sparkling fire in his girlfriend’s eyes.

After that, the crowd started to disperse. Narias and his friends had no reason to linger around either. They gathered around to talk about their plans for the weekend.

“Actually, I got a message from Madam Froxen that the order we placed with her is ready. We could go visit her tomorrow,” Ileena suggested.

“Really? Wow, she works fast,” Flavia exclaimed. “I definitely want to go. You’ll come too, right partner?”

“Ah, yeah, sure,” Narias was thinking he’ll do some reading during the weekend, but he couldn’t say no to go see what Norella Froxen crafted out of the Fanged Whitemane Wolf’s Fur.

“What about you, Nicky?” Ileena asked her friend.

“Well, I have plans tomorrow,” Nicky politely refused, but didn’t want to disclose what those plans were.

“What about you, Growly?” Narias asked him next.

“Busy tomorrow,” Growly answered, rubbing his cheek with one finger.

“That’s too bad. Hey, let’s invite Emilia too,” Flavia suggested after a short pause.

“Certainly, I will go talk to her,” Ileena offered.

“Right. Ok then. Ahm… I would like to do some reading today, so… I’ll see you both at the campus gate the usual time tomorrow? Oh, and have a nice weekend Growly and Nicky,” Narias wished them before leaving.

“Thank you, Narias,” Nicky smiled at him.

“Thanks,” Growly was short with his words as usual.

Ileena and Flavia exchanged goodbyes as well and everyone went to do whatever they had planned for the rest of the day.
