Frostfire Legacy

Chapter 47: As If Nothing Happened

Aster opened his eyes.

He fell asleep before he noticed, all the while listening to Priscilla's lessons about sex. Nobody expected it, but Aster, despite his low Constitution Stat, managed to last as long as Priscilla did!

"Ugh..."

He rose from the bed, holding his hurting head, while looking around. Aster was alone. Turning to the side of the bed and to the table over there, he found a small note. He moved towards it and scanned its content, only to show a wry smile.

~~~

Good morning, sleepyhead, ?

I have to go first since I have a job to do, but if you miss me, just give me a call. I'm fertile for three more days, so I'd welcome you anytime during that period~!

P.S. Don't worry about my husband; he's more open-minded than you'd think!

+175 95* *** ****

~~~

Aster scratched his cheeks, wondering if it was a joke or if she was serious. After all, although she was trying to hide it, her guilt towards Mayor Magnus while doing it with him was something that he couldn't miss.

"There's no way she'd cheat on him..." He sighed while returning the note.

Turning around, he could see the aftermath of their long "tussle" with each other. The bed sheets were still wet in a few places, covered with marks of both love juices, cum, and sweat. Although he felt embarrassed, thinking that someone would be cleaning up afterward, he simply decided to ignore it.

After taking a thorough shower, refreshing himself, and making sure that no traces were left, he quickly donned his adventurer clothes and walked out of the hotel. He was bothered by the knowing looks of the employees, however, but he believed that they were professional enough to not make gossip out of it.

After stopping by the husky guard and retrieving his weapons, bag, and holo-tablet, he quickly checked the time. "Five-thirty..." It was still early, but thinking of the long walk from where he was back to the Adventurer's Guild, it was far from enough.

"I should take a ride back." He decided.

Of course, since it was his first time, he had no idea how to do it. So he had to ask the guard about it, nodding along as he explained what Aster needed to do.

After getting all the information he needed, he thanked the guard while patting his head, which he realized was a bad move a bit later.

He went away, heading toward the taxi waiting area while apologizing to the Husky guard. "Thankfully, he was a friendly guy," Aster muttered with a sigh.

Of course, he didn't regret his actions at all. The fluffy sensation of the thick fur was unforgettable to him!

Aster didn't have to wait a few minutes before a taxi stopped by. Unlike the flying cars, the taxi was something more familiar to him. Although it was floating slightly off the ground instead of moving with wheels.

"Where to, sir?"

The driver, a man who looked like a gray lizard turned human, asked while looking at the rearview mirror. The doubtful look in his eyes was obvious since Aster was covered from head to toe like some suspicious individual.

"To the adventurer's guild, please," Aster whispered while passing his guild card.

The driver checked the card and saw Aster's name, nodding with a smile while returning it to him. "Sure thing, sir! I'll take you there in a jiffy!"

Unlike flying in the sky, traveling on the ground takes longer. Of course, one could technically zoom across streets without worry, matching the speeds of the aerial speedway, but that increases the risk of bumping into pedestrians crossing the street.

After all, even with the Hive-Mind AI controlling all vehicles up in the air, they don't cover ground vehicles and couldn't control people. As such, accidents "could" happen.

In under twenty minutes, they reached the Adventurer's Guild. Aster paid the fare and added a 20% tip before leaving with the driver smiling joyfully. "Have a nice day, sir!"

"You too!" Aster replied as the man drove away.

Without waiting further, Aster entered the guild. To his surprise, he was the last one to come, with the two already together in the same spot from yesterday. Cassy looked like she was trying to converse with Kali but was getting ignored completely.

"Sorry, I'm late." Aster apologized immediately after regrouping with them.

"Star! You're...!" Just as Cassy was about to greet him, her nose twitched. "Hmmm? This is..."

Cassy moved closer to Aster, sniffing him from up close. Her face was serious, so he couldn't just tell her to knock it off. "... I somewhat like this smell!" She exclaimed right afterward with a smile.

"..."

Aster wasn't sure what she was talking about. Was it the cologne he put on after taking a bath or the "smell" left on him after last night's activity? Either way, Kali was looking at him with a frown, not saying a single word.

"We're aiming to go to the second floor today, right?" Aster quickly asked, trying to change the topic. "As long as I just need to reach level 3, then we're good to go!"

"Right! Let's aim to level up fast today~!" Cassy exclaimed while grabbing onto Aster from behind. "Oh, the smell got thicker! How curious..." She exclaimed.

From this, Aster realized that it was the "latter" that Cassy was detecting. Although previously he could hold himself back even with her excessive skinship, after what happened last night, that changed. He couldn't help but react to the soft mounds hitting his back, making him recall the sensations from last night.

"Tsk!"

Kali clicked her tongue before walking ahead, leaving the two behind. Aster quickly followed, but her steps were too fast for him to catch up. Furthermore, Cassy was not letting him go for some reason, making it hard to even walk normally.

A moment later, Kali had already disappeared outside of the guild, blending among the crowds and heading to the dungeon. The irritation she was radiating was enough that everyone, regardless of their level and strength, stayed clear of her path.

With Cassy seemingly addicted to the "smell" and not wanting to let go, interfering with his walking, it took them an extra ten minutes to reach the dungeon.

"Oh, you're finally here, lad! Missy!" The Oni Uncle greeted them as soon as they arrived. "Your other member has already entered." He clarified.

"Oh, is that so?" Cassy replied while attached to Aster's back like a backpack. "Thanks for letting us know, uncle!"

The two then quickly paid their entrance fees before going in through the portal.

By then, they had no idea of the danger waiting for them.
