Kapitel 38: Casino
Landing on the wheel with one leg, Mizuki looked around only to see guards posted on two ships.
Guessing that Hinami had taken over, Mizuki looked towards the nearest guards.
...
The moment that strand of hair landed on the wheel, an even bigger ripple went through space as a majestic beauty the likes of which I have never seen before landed in it's place.
A slim beastkin lady with a great bust and amazing bottom was looking around the ships as if searching. Turning her eyes to me and Ronald, I could not help but be captured by those eyes. As if time stopped.
Ronald was no better, in fact it was worse with him. It could be seen in his eyes, he was completely over the Natyr lady he had spoken about.
But without knowing, we suddenly found ourselves in a locked cell reinforced with the commanders spell. The cell was completely empty and it took us a few seconds to get out of our daze. When we did we noticed every other guard in a similar daze, all in the cell with us.
...
Mizuki had ran around teleporting everyone to the location of her hair strand, while teleporting her crew to their respective rooms.
'For some reason when I make eye contact with them, they seem to freeze.' she thought as she reached the final guard.
'Oh. I know her.'
The final guard was named Sam, one of the intruders in Mizuki's home from way back.
Sam was currently sleeping in the dark red ship's captain's quarters.
'Anyway.'
Teleporting her to the same location as everyone else, Mizuki took a glance at the far away city from the window.
'I guess that Hinami and most of her crew went there.'
Teleporting to the dark red ship's crow's nest, Mizuki made a pair of binoculars as she scanned the city from afar.
Finding an adventurers guild, a merchants guild, a town hall, multiple inns, what seemed to be a school of sorts, a red light district, a casino and tens of restaurants all near each one of those landmarks.
Not knowing where Hinami is located, Mizuki chose a place to gather information on what goes on in the city.
And what better place to find information than the red light district, specifically the casino there.
After all, a woman wondering the red light district's streets is bound to call on troublesome situations.
Teleporting to the Western area near the Southern gate of the city wall, Mizuki teleported to the other side and quickly hid in the alleyways.
Jumping to the nearest roof, she started to steadily and calmly move from roof to roof while approaching the red light district.
Suddenly feeling a pair of cold eyes on her body, she ducked and teleported inside the lowest floor of the building she was standing on.
Casting a shadow element spell to divert anymore eyes, Mizuki could feel how much harder casting spells that she has lost affinity with. It was like changing from a sharpened stainless steel knife to a sharpened butter knife.
'I better make similar spells with the space element for the future.'
Ignoring the creaking that was coming from the upper floors, Mizuki swiftly left the building and dived into the bustling streets.
'The best place to hide in an environment like this is in plain sight.'
She kept making her way to the casino.
After bumping into a few drunk men and barely escaping a large scene, Mizuki entered the establishment.
Without hesitation, she teleported to the top most floor where she could feel a pen drop to the ground.
Appearing in an extremely fancy looking office, she sat on the sofa and waited for the supposed owner of this place to lift his head.
How did she know this was the owner? This is a casino. What casino owner doesn't make his office on the top most floor?
Crossing her legs, she patiently waited for the man to find his pen.
'It's taking him a suprising amount of time.'
"Goddammit...where.."
He was basically on his hands and knees behind the desk, she could see it from the reflection of the window right behind him.
"F*cking finally."
The man picked up his golden button pen with a diamond nose cone and button.
Standing up to face the window, he spun it in his hand while sitting down on his chair and looking outside.
Mizuki could get a clear look at him from this angle.
A slightly dark skinned man with sharp eyes and black hair, he had sheep ears instead of human ones and horns that curled from the back of his head to the front of his ears, almost blocking them.
'A sheepkin. I remember Tana being one too. Although I don't think they are common, they all seem to be in positions of power.'
'Since he is a sheepkin, I should equip my horns to make my first impressions better.'
Letting her horns regrow from the sides of her head and curl backwards, Mizuki adjusted her hat. Back at New Seelnd she had discovered that she could alter the shape of the regrown sheep horns, but she hadn't put it to practical use yet. The most she had done was make them thicker or slightly curlier.
With her hand holding and readjusting her hat, the man at last saw her in the windows reflection and slowly spun his chair around.
Staying silent, the man waited.
"Pleasure to meet you. You may call me Mrs. M."
The man narrowed his eyes as he tried to appraise Mizuki. Luckily enough, the function of [Conceal] only showed him Mrs. M and a bunch of question marks.
On the other hand, Mizuki could see everything in this man's status.

'Huh. An esper, haven't seen a new one in a while.'
"Well 'Mrs. M' what may I help you with?"
"Straight to buisness Mr. Shihoto. I like that."
Shigoto placed both hands on his desk.
"What I don't like however is the way you try to call security with that button under your desk."
Before he could react, Shigoto froze and could no longer move.
Screams could be heard from down stairs.
"Now then. Let's start some friendly negotiations shall we?"
