บท 441: Chapter 441. Entertainment group's Gala and Leila. Walking to Andrea's forge.
While Yasenia spoke, she could see them looking at her eagerly. These women's eyes could tell a thousand stories without saying a word.
Yasenia had just spoken with only twenty-five of them, so she turned toward the entertainers and asked. "What do you think about their idea? Do you agree on opening an entertainment building for Clan members?"
A slenderer and elegant harpy stepped forward.
If Yasenia remembered correctly, she was a singer. Her temperament was indifferent, and her black feathers and eyes looked ethereal with her movements.
Her voice was on the deeper side with a touch of otherworldly charm. "We want to be part of this group, Matriarch. Right now, we may be overstaffed. However, creating a place to relax the heart for the Matriarch's future followers or becoming a private group to please and help the Matriarch, either option is a pleasant outcome."
The woman lifted a barely noticeable smile as she looked at Yasenia. "I can see that the Matriarch genuinely cares about us and wants us to have a free choice. However, Matriarch, you must understand that most sisters who have entered the entertainment industry will remain there. It feels natural for us harpies to seek pleasure, emotional pleasure, or flesh pleasure. We are a lustful race that seeks attention."
Yasenia listened in detail.
"If Ghana is the first harpy the Matriarch has met, I must inform you that you've first met the exception."
Yasenia nodded and smiled. "Ghana isn't the first Harpy I know, and I understand your race culture. I ask because I want those exceptions to have a chance to step forward and not think I pack your race in a single bag. Before a race, you are all individuals with different likes and objectives."
She turned toward the other ten in her group, who were unrelated to entertainment, and ordered. "Go to the side for a moment. I want to discuss this with just them. Use this time to prepare questions and a list of essential materials and tools you'll need in the future."
They all nodded and moved to the side with thoughtful expressions.
Yasenia looked at the remaining forty harpies and spoke. "I'll allow it for the moment. Still, just an 'entertainment' spot is not enough to be useful for my Clan. What would the difference between you and women in brothels outside our Clan be otherwise?"
They all nodded and listened attentively. "You will become a place to gather information secretly and will report directly to me. I want a report of what you talked about with your clients, their likes, which power they belong to, and what secrets they spill while you tease them. In short, everything you hear from their mouths."
The harpies blinked twice, confused. Yasenia explained further. "As you know, our Clan will expand in the future. I know that this first batch is filled with mostly trustworthy people. However, the inspection in the future will relax as more and more people join us. Many details may be lost, and it is inevitable."
"Here is where your entertainment group will come in handy. Many people blurt their emotions and thoughts to people they deem unimportant. Especially if they feel relaxed after a roll on the sheets or a performance."
Yasenia's eyes flashed, and she spoke. "I'll also teach all of you to create intoxicating alcohol that will work on cultivators. This item will quickly become popular and help with information extraction as it will also blur the memory."
They all widened their eyes and got excited. Who knew that Yasenia had planned it so deeply for them to be helpful in the long run? They were delighted, and their eyes shone while looking at the dragoness.
Yasenia continued. "Naturally, reports will have to be cleaned up, so I'll put a head for each of the sections of this establishment, meaning the sexual department and entertainment department."
Yasenia pointed at the two women that spoke and stated. "You two will be the heads of the establishment and will make sure none of the girls under you perform. Tell me your names again and present yourselves formally."
The Harpy had a mature and curvy body and answered respectfully and with a beautiful smile. "I'm called Gala, Lady Yasenia. It will be my pleasure to serve you in the future. I'll make sure everything goes smoothly."
The calm and slender Harpy answered elegantly, her eyes solemn and grateful. "I'm called Leila, Lady Yasenia. I'll make sure my girls are the best of the best in the future."
Yasenia nodded. "Good. Gala, remember you are in charge of the harpies wanting to work in the erotic industry. Being in charge doesn't mean forcing them to do things they don't like for profit. Your first and most important policy will be that they can't be abused unless consensual. Remember that you are selling your body, beauty, skills, and charm, not your dignity. I want for all of you to be respected even if your trade is the sexual one."
Gala and the others felt warmth enter their hearts, and they nodded with smiles.
Yasenia looked at Leila and continued. "You will control the harpies that only want to be entertainers without sexual intercourse. Teach them to be beautiful, attractive, yet far away from the grasp. They have to enter the room with nothing and leave with their customer's heart. However, they always have to maintain a distance and leave the customer wanting more without being able to touch. Your final objective is to become a desirable and unreachable fairy. As I said to the others, do not force anyone to do things they don't like."
Leila nodded in understanding. "Thank you, Matriarch. We'll work hard."
Yasenia chuckled and commented. "If they can become half as elegant as you and as beautifully as you carry yourself, I'll be happy."
Leila's cold face gained a rosy color as she nodded. "I won't fail the Matriarch."
Yasenia looked at the forty naked harpies and spoke one last time. "Remember that you are not tied to this profession. You can always try your hand in any other profession. I won't force anybody to do this trade. The superior-junior policies will also apply here, so be honest and work hard."
They all nodded with passion in their eyes. "Understood!"
Yasenia nodded. "Dismissed. Began the planning by yourselves." Yasenia was about to turn when she commented. "Remember that all of you are sisters. It doesn't matter if you are on the erotic or entertainment sides, respect each other and look out for the sisters in the other trade."
The harpies froze for a second and looked at each other. Then, they smiled and nodded.
Satisfied, the dragoness finally turned toward the other ten, leaving a sentence behind. "If you want to become my maid, go to Tatyana. She has the requirements and training for it. However, I recommend not going. The training is too rigorous, so much so that most people have died trying. And not a few tried in the past."
The forty women were stunned.
They wanted to ask her, but Yasenia had already returned to her seat and was already speaking with the others, so they kept their thoughts to themselves. Some were still curious and thought, 'We'll ask Lady Tatyana when she returns.'
Yasenia talked with the cooks for a while. The conversation went on about ways to increase their skill and gain experience. The dragoness also suggested growing ingredients at home and avoiding being dependent on outside food sources. They all took notes on Yasenia's advice.
One of the cooks asked. "Lady Yasenia, where do we get a place to grow farm animals?"
Yasenia answered easily. "Don't worry about it. I already have a perfect place. I only need the animals. I'll also open a small farm on our terrain since the new house will have enough free space to grow a few of them. With the help of accelerating formations and good food, it won't be a problem."
Yasenia turned toward the last five and remembered their professions: a talisman master, an architect, a gem embedder, a jewelry master, and a gardener.
Yasenia asked the jewelry master and gem embedder. "You two will probably work together in the future, right?"
They both nodded. Yasenia realized that they were a bit similar and asked. "Are you two related?"
The jewelry master smiled and proudly puffed her chest. "Lady Yasenia realized! We are sisters~."
The other opened her wing arms and hugged the first one. "Yes, we chose these professions to complement each other!"
Yasenia nodded and received their list of tools. 'Hm, we don't have some of these. We'll have to make them.'
After a talk with all of them, Yasenia decided to stop it there and said to them to do as they pleased. She didn't intend to give serious work before they moved to their new house.
As she walked away, Yasenia thought about the seven assassins. 'This ticking bomb is very dangerous. Even if oaths are helpful, they are not definitive. I still don't understand Distancia Continent enough to tell whether there are methods to break these oaths.'
Yasenia sighed. 'Well, this is still within my predictions. Even if they escape, they can't do much. My strength is still unknown, our structure is unstable and bound to change and adapt in the future, and my resources are also a mystery. As long as I keep these three things in secret as well as maintain a bit of distance from my dears in the presence of harpies, we should be fine no matter what happens with them.'
Yasenia wasn't worried about their safety. After fighting them, she understood that they didn't have the strength to ambush and kill them.
Yasenia walked near the room with the three assassins who didn't surrender and heard horrendous screams.
She blinked twice and tilted her head. 'Is Kali doing something?'
She opened the door and sneaked a glance inside.
She saw the three of them chained and wriggling on the floor as bulges moved across their skin, their eyes bloodshot, and their yells of suffering echoed in the room.
Yasenia silently closed the door again, her lips twitching. 'My dear Fox is somewhat terrifying.'
Then, the dragoness smiled. 'But this only makes her even more charming~. After all, my dears are perfect!'
Well, she was a bit of a love-blinded idiot. What can you do?
Even if Yasenia saw Kali devouring something bloody like a beast, she would probably call her cute and hug her, taking out a handkerchief to clean Kali's mouth.
Anyway, the dragoness soon arrived at her destination, Andrea's forge.
She silently opened the door and entered, not alerting them.
Andrea was in her forge with the other blacksmiths.
When Yasenia arrived, she was amused as the three harpies were mesmerized by Andrea's workmanship and stood still while admiring her.
Their wings were folded before their chests, and they stared at the woman's tall figure as she sweated and worked with the metal with a focused face.
Yasenia didn't interrupt Andrea's work and watched from the door, not alerting them.
