Bab 26: Chapter 26: Date
Perseus POV
"Oh you actually dressed up nicely for our mission. A bit under dress though"
"Well I asked your sister, when you say date, it means that you're going to need me for something." she replied "So what spy mission are we going to do?"
I currently just wear a grey winter parka over a black shirt, khaki pants and black sneakers. I also have glasses, a grey mask and a bandana to hide most my hair for disguise since where I'm planning on heading is cold.
While her on the other hand...a black and pink hoodie over a long sleeve shirt, a cap, jeans and red sneakers.
"Brennan is arrogant, but he isn't completely dumb, he'll want to get information about me and no one knows about me the most with the exception of my clanmates and your family, but they won't snitch as I said, we're loyal, on the other hand, there is a certain woman who knows the second most..."
"Oh." she realized "We're heading to the red light district."
"Yep, most people only know Alice for her work there as a succubus, but if you're a bit knowledgeable, she's the best information broker this tower have ever seen, even you were shocked when I reveal that information."
"You have no tack, to bring another girl on a date to the red light district...are you perhaps insane?" she asked
"Well I don't want to burden my sister, I need one person to help as the others in my division got their own task. Though before we head there, you need a bit more warmer clothing."
*****
The red light district is located on the tenth floor, to be specific, it's deep inside a cave hidden in the ice region, apparently the cold make it so that people would want to seek the warmth of another person more.
It's hard to find the cave hidden deep in the icy and snowy region, it's near the deepest parts where it's always plagued by snowstorms, I can just warp there, but I need to take my partner the regular route, so that she can know the direction for the future.
It should take 2 hours on foot, hell someone like me can work as a guide for a lot of money since many eager students of the academy would love to come here on weekends, I know, our academy is messed up, but what can you do about people who are college age, they have a lot of urges.
And yes, this academy is full of strange students, different races, different ideology, packed into one system and one goal, to climb the tower.
Though those other students of my class should try better to hide themselves, it's easy to spot you guys if you're just in a snowy field, at least try to blend in with white clothing.
3rd person view
Earlier...
Alvis, Acacia, Gregory, and the fairy and giant that follows Acacia around have decided to to gather together on that particular weekend. The whole class heard about Perseus inviting Cordelia on a 'date'.
They are currently spying on Cordelia who just left a nearby restroom to change into warmer clothing. They were curious on why a ranker would invite a nobody to come to the waypoint of the 10th floor, and they also always sneak a peek at Perseus during training.
Perseus, the Silver Prince, despite reaching that kind of power, still worked harder than anyone, he even asked advice from their homeroom teacher for better style of training, so now they want to know what they're planning to do on their spare time.
"They're wearing warm clothing, there should be a reason for it, we should change too." Greg suggested "I have a small frame since I'm a goblin, if we follow them into somewhere cold, I'm going to die first."
"Maybe we can get the giant to put us in her pocket when she turn into her original form." Alvis suggested
"My name is Anjisok Stone, remember that." the giant retorted
"We'll just call you Anji." Greg responded "Even if we do that, we'll lose stealth."
"Stop complaining, I'm going to die first since my original form is the smallest and this human form is only going to stay on for a few more hours, but if we leave to get warmer clothing, we'll lose sight of them." the fairy complained
"Fay Boone, shush, they're leaving, let's go." Acacia said as they set out to follow Perseus and Cordelia.
Present...
They can barely see Perseus and Cordelia as the snowstorm blocked most of their vision, they can only see the outline as they huddle up together for some warmth, they want to turn back, but they're already too far out and would just get lost, the tower would prevent them from death by killing in the tutorial levels, but it wouldn't prevent them from death by natural causes like the cold.
"I know it might be creepy if we say that we were following them, but shouldn't we go to them for help, we all barely have any mana left." Alvis suggested "And if we use up the rest to warm ourselves, we might not have any left to fight if we meet mobs."
"Well that's why we're trying our best to catch up, now keep walking, if he can do it when he was younger then so can we, I need to prove that I'm worth more than just connections." Acacia retorted
And then they kept quiet on the rest of their journey till they arrive at the right light district.
*****
"I know he was bold, but to think that he would bring a girl on their first date to the red light district, a ranked sure are different from average joes like us." Alvis said
The cave they were in is cold too, but is much warmer in comparison to the outside. They were to surprised to walk in where people are wearing slightly revealing clothing and it didn't take them long to realize where they were.
"At least people are only about 25% naked." Greg grumbled "They can't show you half the prize if you aren't willing to pay for a nice time."
