Chapter 102: Only One Pair
Chapter 102: Only One Pair
I left the boys and headed back down to the mess hall. There were a pair of the shirtless men that waved to me as I came down but then went back to their conversation.
I waved back, but then headed around the bar to the back. I took a look at the back of the bar to see what was all there, this was my new home so I should get familiar with the layout.
There were multiple different kinds of alcohol that I have never even heard of in all different shades. I wasn't much of a drinker, so I wasn't overly fascinated by the robust selection.
I turned and headed into the kitchen area where I could smell some kind of bird cooking. I had almost forgotten part of the reason why I had come down when I found them peeling tubers.
"Ho! You must be the new boss in charge around here!" Said a small curly hair man that looked strikingly similar to Gram, the previous Guild Leader of my first guild.
"Yes, I was hoping to get some food to bring up to my girls, but it looks like it is still cooking. How are the arms? They aren't bothering you are they?" I asked, eyeing the pair that looked like someone was sticking their arms through holes in the countertop.
"Righty and Lefty? No, leave them be, I enjoy having extra hands around the place, BWAHAHA!" The old man laughed and ducked out of the way of a half-peeled tuber.
I turned to see the knife and a middle finger being shaken at the cook. Looks like they didn't like jokes, but it was good to see that they were fitting in.
"How long do you think until the food is ready?" I asked the cook.
"Ten, fifteen at most, but there is an elevator that we can send the food up to you with it, and there is even a tube you can call down to get food sent up! My name is Vergil, meat cutter by trade, but Dyster destroyed my shop by accident, so now I work here!"
"I am glad to have you, please send up some food when it's ready. I have six hungry girls plus myself up there," I said, turning to leave.
"Pleasure is all mine! The men are acting civilized and the place is quiet! You have my vote!" Vergil shouted to me as I left.
It was nice to see that the arms had a place already and they were freaking people out. The two men had left and now the mess hall was empty, so I jogged back up the stairs.
When I got back up top Gloria was sitting with Mei, brushing her in their room, but Trinity and Candi's door was closed. I walked over to stand in the open doorway, and Mei looked up at me.
"Where is the food?" She asked, making a funny face as Gloria hit a knot.
"Sorry, it's coming soon. What are the other two doing with their door closed? Or do I even want to know?" I asked with a small smile.
"No you don't, I have been hearing moans coming from over there, so I think it would be best just to leave them be," Gloria said with a knowing smile.
I left the two of them and left to go see how Lesha was doing with Alana. As I passed the other girls closed doors I heard Candi complain about a misplaced finger that made me grin despite myself.
I walked into my room and smiled at the big familiar bed that I had been kicked around the last time I had slept in at the other hall. I really hoped that this little girl would be a better sleeper than Gloria, I could have strangled her.
I sighed, going over to the bathroom and knocked on the closed door, calling out. Lesha answered me, telling me to come in. Lesha had her pants off again with her legs in the water, and Alana was in between them.
"Can you pass me the shampoo bar?" Lesha asked me as I closed the door, and locked it.
I went and grabbed the sudsy shampoo bar and passed it to Lesha. Then I took off my pants and underwear so I wouldn't get them wet.
They were only now getting dry after when I had come and sat with Lesha earlier while the girls were bathing. I slipped my legs into the warm water, and let out a sigh of relief, closing my eyes for a moment.
"Umm, Miss K, can I ask you something?"
I cracked open one eye, felt my face begin to heat before the little girl ever spoke. I closed my legs that I had so casually let spread open while trying to pull my shirt down.
"Miss K just needs a haircut, but some girls prefer it longer. Helps to keep your lady parts warm in the winter, right K? I bet you only were one pair of underwear when the snow comes, hehe! Hey!" Lesha cried out as I pushed her into the water.
She came up flailing like a drowning cat, and both Alana and I started to laugh at her. Lesha scowled at me after she got her long blonde plastered hair off her face.
"So, now that we have gotten clean the food should be ready soon as well, but I think now would be as good of a time as any to tell us your story, or whatever you want to tell us. Just know that no matter what you say, you have a place here with us," I told Alana, reaching forward to pull some of the hair out of her eyes.
Lesha floated over and wrapped Alana in a hug from behind, and I could see some of the stress leaving her body. Whatever this girl had been through, it had left her with many scars.
"I will tell you from when I first got the power," Alana said, taking a deep breath.
