Chapter 57: Blue Rose Host Club (II)
Phil pulled me forward. We both ended up next to the large building. Dozens of females and males pictures were neatly in rows. Phil's face was plastered on the wall as the number one ranked Host. Upon entering, we were greeted by a lovely lady.
"Oh? If it isn't Phil." The lady sparkled with radiance. I thought for a second, she would blind me. The amount of jewels and sparkly clothes that she wore reminded me of a disco ball.
"Aiko." Phil gently smiled. His smile struck a heart in Aiko's heart. She swooned and ran over, attaching to his arms.
The rough pull of his arms being snatched out of mine made me fall backward. Why that little vixen! I cursed in my head. Are all females like this when they see Phil? Can't they give me some space?
I growled an animalistic growl. It caught Phil's attention, and he peeled Aiko off his arm. In one fell swoop, he picked me off the ground and searched if I was wounded.
"Everything all right?" Phil looked at me, concerned.
"I'm fine.�� I grumpily replied, giving the lady an angry glare.
"Good." He let out a sigh of relief. "I don't want to see you turn ballistic like last time."
Oh? So he was worried that I would turn into a dragon. "I'm not going crazy."
"We don't know about that." Phil chuckled. "Let's not test the theory out."
"Trust me. I won't." I retorted.
Phil turned back towards Aiko, who glared jealousy at me. What the heck is she jealous of me? I look like a little girl for crying out loud. Plus, I hardly think Phil is interested in girls right now. With a satisfied grin, I smile back at her. This made her a bit more infuriated, and she glowered.
"Aiko?" Phil glanced at her. Her whole demeanor changed in a second into her facade of a self.
"Ah, I'm very sorry. How are you? Who might this young lady be?" Aiko came over as if she was wagging her tail like a vixen.
"Could be better. This is my sister Berry. Have you seen Don come in?" Phil glanced around to find Don, but what welcomed him was a large front desk with a large aquarium behind it, showing a small glimpse of the other side.
"It's your sister? Why, hello." Aiko gave me a flattering smile, but I could see through her fake mask.
I continued to give her a cute smile and glued myself towards Phil, giving her a glare to back off. This lady really pissed me off. She didn't even say sorry to me specifically.
"No, I have not," Aiko replied. She gave me a momentary glare that made me want to punch her.
"If you do see him, please tell him I'm looking for him. I'm not going to leave today." Phil replied, wanting her to quickly go away.
"I'll gladly tell him." Aiko brightened, "Would you like to go re-freshen yourself and change?"
"I guess I could go start."
Phil placed me down, and both of us went through the wide smoky glass door. The moment we entered, I felt like we came into a whole new world. It reminded me of a very high-class bar with fantastic interior design. Even in the middle of the room was another giant fish tank with baby sharks that swam in circles. The whole place was dimly lit, booths with girls and guys situated in their own little world as laughter, alcohol, and cigarettes pervaded the very air.
"Well, if it isn't Phil." A very handsome man came forward. He was wearing the latest Rocker clothes.
Phil completely ignored him and went past him.
Yep, that's the Phil I know. He doesn't talk to strangers. Wait, would they be considered strangers even? They work together, don't they?
"Hey, I'm talking to you, pretty boy!" The man yanked Phil by the shoulder.
Stupid move idiot. I couldn't help but cluck my tongue in disapproval. The man's hand was twisted behind his back, and he was in complete pain.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Let me go!"
Phil pushed him hard forward, and the man fell onto the floor. Turning around, he left the man without even batting an eye.
"You bastard!" The man's fist was bee-lining towards Phil's head.
Phil sidestepped out of the way and tripped the man, causing him to fall.
Poor fool. I shook my head. He doesn't know that he is picking on the wrong person. Shrugging, I walked behind Phil and glanced over my shoulder. They were three other handsome looking men, staring at Phil with anger.
Were all these people at the host club douchebags? I mean seriously, even though they have amazing faces, they all act like they were king. Well, I couldn't help but stare at Phil. He was the
Demon Lord, and his persona did suit him perfectly. There was a complete difference between Phil and the other men. He was a Demon Lord to be for crying out loud.
We walked towards the changing room, where Phil changed out of his clothes. Instead, he put on dignified clothes that made him look like a prince. I could tell that every girl that he spoke with would probably swoon when they see him.
"Phil, you have a customer." Aiko peeks through the door.
Phil nodded, giving her an okay. He then turned towards me. "Stay in this building. Don't leave." Phil gave me a stern gaze. I could feel a heavy pressure that would make any sane man cry, but for me, I only felt a chill running up and down my spine.
I knew that look anywhere. The death glare.
"Yes, sir." I saluted. I didn't want to get in trouble again.
Wait, why the heck am I even listening to him? He's not my mother. I felt so stupid. This was my world where I came from, not Phil's. It made no sense why I would listen to him when he knows nothing of this world.
"Wait-"
The door clicked closed, and Phil left me before I could say anything.
What the hell? Couldn't he give me a chance to speak first? I was utterly speechless. I had so many questions to ask, but instead, he got up and left me.
Throughout the day, I walked around aimlessly through the building. Exploring every nook and cranny. From the kitchen where they gave me free food, to the secluded multiple rooms.
Some had music playing where a group of girls and a host were doing karaoke. I continued to walk through the first floor of the hallway. They were a couple in an inconspicuous room where I heard some sensual sounds. I rushed past those before I could even hear any more.
I ended up back downstairs, where large booths were present. The lights were dimmed, making everything in the room feel magical. Catching a glimpse of Phil entertaining a group of ladies, they were laughing and squealing in delight. All his acts were genuine, like nobility, that it made any girl fall in love with him. The way he picked up the food, the way he drank, talked and moved all screamed that he was more than just a commoner. He was a natural.
Most of the female customers were near him even though they paid for the service of other hostesses. Every single male in the room gazed upon Phil with hatred and jealousy. He does not usually give to me the smiling face he shamelessly presented to the other girls. I felt a slight tinge of pain in my heart, but I quickly pushed it away.
This was not the time to care what Phil did, he was not my problem right now. I got nothing else to do, nor do I want to even compete for attention.
Heading to the front desk where we entered, I noticed a second glass door. Instead, a large group of male customers opened this door. Following behind them, I began a completely different part of the building that was like a maid cafe. Females were all dressed up in maid costumes and serving.
This large room was the complete opposite of where I just came out from, it was like night and day. The cute and sexy atmosphere of this room was more geared towards the male customers. Every single one of the female presents were acting like maids.
I walked in wondering what kind of exciting things would be present on this side of the host club.
"Are you a new recruit? You look like a kid?" A beautiful lady with pink hair came up from behind me.
"I'm not a kid. I'm over twenty years old." I blurted.
"Really? Then that's good. Come on. Let's go and get changed. We are short on hand." The lady grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the back. Entering the room, she searched through the closest. "Here." She pulled out a maid outfit for me to wear.
"Wait-"
"We don't have time. These are the busy hours." The lady pushed the clothes in my hand.
"But-"
"Go find Mia. She'll direct you to what you need to do." Just like a tornado that came, she left just as quickly.
