The four guys watching the TV switched channels, with the older leaving the little ones on the Satisfy News channel that was doing some analysis about the top player. In that time, Vlad and Mathias returned to the computer and resumed watching some replays of Vlad's fights that were rather intense.

Vlad, took out a recording of him escaping from the bodyguards of Count Romeo, after he was tasked on surveilling the son of the Count. Continuing on that same job after notifying Count Ravesi, about what he saw, which brought quite a smile on that noble face, enough to reward Vlad with 200 gold for the information and some EXP, getting on with the rest of the quest chain.

It was the day after he logged out, when he returned to Satisfy and got the Count awake, that he managed to have that conversation.

Vlad before starting the recordings he had, told Mathias, the backstory of the situation and how he got into it, missing the boring details.

"It all started on Tuesday, after I reconnected and delivered the information that Count Ravesi, entrusted me with the job of surveilling the son of Count Romeo, and report his activities, and the places he would frequent. Nothing big at start, but then with more days, beside surveilling that brat, I stumbled upon a small detail. That boy or better said his father has deep connections with the leading Syndicate of the City that owns the dark industry of the city, prostitution, drugs, slaves, and so on."

"This recording is me fighting off the syndicate bastards, which I managed to kill since they were level 38-40, surprisingly low level compared to the bodyguards. Yet, those bodyguards picked on the small sounds I made after killing those syndicate rats, and they started attacking me."

"Give me your thoughts, how would you handle this situation, without attracting their attention and spilling blood?" inquired Vlad, while playing the recording, where Mathias began watching the entire process, from the Mansion of the Ravesi, to what Moroiz looked like.

"Go fast-forward until you reach the moment you approach them, the rest is trivial to me."

"Hey, don't make it sound as my entire journey was trivial." remarked Vlad feeling a bit salty, at what Mathias said, but nonetheless, he went fast-forward with the video until the sky of Moroiz turned dark.

Mathias could see from a distance a young man about 13-14 years old accompanied by four bodyguards, going toward a building that looked more like a workshop of sorts. Along the way, he could see Vlad approach them, and get inside the range of the building, and as the video was going forward, he could notice the people who were supposed to be simple citizens of the city, start acting weird.

"Stop the video."

"Huh?" confused, Vlad stopped the recording, and could see Mathias point his finger at two little boys about 12 years old, who when noticing Vlad's appearance, they quietly in the direction of another alley.

"If I am not mistaken, those two reactions aren't normal. Take a look, yourself, so I don't seem like some haunted person."

Vlad focused his eyes on the kids Mathias was pointing at who retreated in an abnormal fashion, which began making sense later on with the rest of his story on how the syndicate guys managed to pick up on his whereabouts and attack him, followed by the bodyguards.

Going forward with the recording where the fight was playing out, Mathias was laying back on the chair and whistled at the fighting skills Vlad was showing off that killed the 3 syndicate guys in a rapid succession.

"Those are some skills right there brother. Hmm, you should have evaded the fight from the first time you saw them approach you in an aggressive way, and if they continued on following you, you could devise a plan to take them out without leaving any signs. But doing it direct is also good, just that you didn't expect those high level bodyguards to appear."

"Well, can't say yes or no. I wanted to kill those syndicate mobs, since they gave off quite the decent EXP, and afterwards escaping, and vanishing from the tracks I've left. But, it seems I am still weak compared to the high level mobs and had trouble getting my tracks lost."

"Pretty much, we still have to bide our time before trying to fight back against the high level people of that world. Yet, this doesn't mean we can't have them work for us, and do the dirty work, just like how they want to have us "outlanders" work for them."

"How? Only those low level npcs might want to work for the players so they can live, but the high leveled ones can simply kill us."

"Really now? Even in that world, money can buy a lot of things and apart from this they value feelings and bounds."

.

Spending his time with Vlad and his younger brother, and friend, Mathias after some hours, took his leave, partially solving the reason why he got caught up into that mess, and bidding his farewell he left the apartment, moving back to his home.

On his way to the metro, he got a call from his little brother, Cristian which was just in time, the time-range he would call him to talk about his day and what events happened at home. Even inside the tram, he discussed with his little brother, about random things, music, some movies that appeared online, and with great interest talking about Satisfy.

"Big brother, I took on a part time job so I could start gathering some money for the capsule."

"What's the job about?"

"Cashier."

"And you got a part time job?"

"Yes, but it is a night shift, so wish me good luck since I will need it."

"Haha, good luck, little brother, you'll see for yourself how money is made and by then you will rather work for your own money than ask mom."

"I know, I know. It is really frustrating that the price is so high, and it is not like I can come over to your home to play. The journey would take about 4 hours, so no thanks, I will rather buy it myself. Anyway, big brother, will you return home for Christmas?"

"Yes, I will return, hasn't mom told you guys?"

"Not really. It seems she was trying to make it into a surprise. But it failed."

"No, no, keep it a secret. I will come for one week and return back for the New's Years, maybe."

"That's great."

He continued on even on his way to his apartment, having Cris also put Alex on the phone, so he could hear his voice, and hear about his doings. His expression was that of being genuinely happy to talk with his little brothers, and when he reached home, with his phone on his hand, Mathias could only smile.

"I kind of missed having those two nag on me. Good that we healed that frosty moment, and got back on the track."

Entering his apartment, he didn't have to cook anything since he eat with Vlad some cooked food, yet he didn't escape doing his laundry, not that he had to lift too many fingers, only being required to select the clothes according to color and material before placing them on the washing machine.

Afterwards, he went and cleaned his apartment, changed his bed lingeries and made sure there were was no mold around the walls. Why would he do such things, some of you might ask? This was the monthly cleanup that he would do on a Saturday, and played a big role in his apartment not being infested by some pest, or mold.

Just with all those tasks completed, he went inside the capsule, and reconnected inside Satisfy, where he was welcomed by the sight of Fayrene and Jeanne being together in the salon room, having in their hands dresses.

"Look who decided to return home. Sister, doesn't this newcomer feel like a stranger?" inquired the raven-haired young woman, as she stopped looking at the crimson haired man who magically made his appearance in the room.

"I don't know him." replied the blonde young woman, barely holding a laughter from coming out.

Mathias glanced at the two girls who from the first moment he returned back, started playing him on their fingers, he too acted shamelessly saying.

"I don't remember having maids in my house, could it be I am turning senile from a young age? Wait a minute, the two of you, could it be, are you stealing from me?"

"Steal what?" asked Fayrene, with a wide smile on her face, walking closer to Mathias, as she studied his face, for any breakage.

"Aren't those the pieces I've worked tirelessly for about one month? I don't remember showing them to others, so my only conclusion is, you've stolen them from me."

"Sister, let's run, he caught us." remarked Jeanne who acted as if she was a thief caught in the act, panicking and taking the dress in her hands and running toward the exit, the direction Mathias was placed.

The crimson haired young man give a evil smile and from his body a red aura veil appeared before from this aura, a rope began forming, and directly capture the running muse, who acted pathetically when being captured.

"Ahhh, he captured me! Sister, help."

"That is something new. But it will not last for long." commented Fayrene, who placed her slender white hand toward Jeanne releasing her white-purple arcane magic, with an attempt to cut off the ropes, but before she knew, a burst of a rope captured her too, bring her closer to the crimson haired man.

"I've caught both of you little temptresses."

The two young ladies didn't put any resistance body wise, but acted up quite pathetic, before they walked to Mathias, and entered his embrace.

"How was it?" asked the two girls in a calm way, while giving him a kiss on his lips.

"There needs to be more work done, but for amateur actresses you could sell the story to an untrained audience. But I like this kink of both of you, it trains your mind and also mines."

"Not again! You will not go train anywhere this time, and spend time with us." said Fayrene who used her red rope to bind Mathias, and restrict his way of escaping.

"This is really not bad, I could stay like this until tomorrow, just like this. Gazing into both of your eyes, who wouldn't want this? Even the old man will not fuss about it."

"Wait, didn't you say Lord Haycien is asleep?"

"Right now, he is awake. Why?"

Fayrene expression turned embarrassed and later glanced angry at him, remarking.

"What should I think knowing that someone else is along with you, watching me? When I change my clothes or when I'm in bed."

"Haven't I promised that I will make him turn his head? Also, he is an old man, why should it bother you? Is not like you can see him, correct?"

"Arghh, you better kept that a secret about having someone inside your mind."

"Come on sister, don't be harsh on Mat. He now really holds a big responsibility on his shoulders and could be constantly in danger because of his new identity." said Jeanne who was beside Fayrene, in Mathias hold.

"Even now I can't believe he became one of them. You know a Royal. A Saharan."

*Cough* "I am still Mathias, your average adventurer, explorer of the world, and the stories of people. The darling of Fayrene and Jeanne, friend and drinking partner of the drunk, and Guild Leader of the Leviathan. Ahh, to not forget, also the Administrator of Moonlight Workshop."

"Yes, yes, you are not important. At least to the outside you are not, but to us? You are more than you think." replied Fayrene to the attempt of brushing off the idea he was close to being one of the Royals, which failed.

"Come on, dear. At least don't remind me of that? I've thought a lot about it and it is still too risky for me to approach them."

"Why don't you write the book again and give it to His Majesty? Without saying anything else, just the book. It worked at first, right?" asked Jeanne, trying to help Mathias with everything she could, even those small suggestion could mean a lot.

"I've thought about it too, and it is indeed an idea, but right now I really don't want to be bothered with that mess. The reality is that I still have to train myself more, and grow stronger, to protect you in case someone wants to target me. I don't even have to tell them about my intents that I will be on someone's blacklist."

"Okay, dear. We will not talk about it, then. But you didn't tell us about those dresses?"

"That was supposed to be a surprise that would go along with the second gift I postponed in giving it to you."

Saying that he released his Red Energy ropes that he began to proficiently use after having about one month of training on how to control this new resource, and with both girls out from his "claws" he took out the jewelry he took from Elder Morlk.

Fayrene when she saw in Mathias hands the earrings that were imprinted in her memory she reacted pleasantly surprised, while Jeanne who was fresh on this aspect felt weird. She received gifts from the nobles who were infatuated with her, but she had her heart shutdown for the outsiders, with the only exception of being Mathias, and those close to her that she could count on one hand.

In Mathias's hands was the pair of earrings, and bracelet, that he presented to them with a small smile.

"I wanted to also gift you something done by my hands, as such I crafted the dresses instead of doing the tapestry. Why not do the tapestry? …

Let's say my ego grew a bit since I learned sewing socks and underwear, it grew big enough to allow me to have the confidence of taking on that job of doing my little temptresses two dresses. The intent was to have them match with the pieces of jewelry."

"If you wanted to make a surprise you shouldn't have left it on the open, even though you hid it, you should have taken it to your inner dimension." remarked Fayrene who was staring at the earrings and also at the purple dress, Mathias has tailored for her, a [Epic] graded piece.

Meanwhile, Jeanne was quick and placed the bracelet on her right arm, which was embroidered with pearls, fine jewels, having a pure golden aesthetic, that matched with the silver-golden dress he tailored specifically with her in mind.

"I can't ask for more. Yet, I would wish to see my little devil back, understood, darling?" remarked Jeanne placing emphasis on the tapestry he did for her in the Beta Phase that she was missing so dearly.

Fayrene too was on the same bucket, missing the piece of tapestry Mathias gifted her, the timid kittens, which would always soothe her mind whenever she would miss Mathias, and without mentioning that, it was enough for her to glance at Mathias in a certain way that he understood the message.

"I will not forget to do that when I have free time. Besides, what do you think of the dress? I did it in the spare time I had between my trainings, I even tried a technique me and old Haycien cooked, to bolster the quality of the treads.

{Well, lad, I can't take away the credit from where it is due, you really are a weirdo. I never thought one could use Red Energy in that way, and you proved me wrong.} remarked Haycien, while he was leaning back, watching a white wall, not peering into the scene of Mathias and his women.

Fayrene and Jeanne who still held he dresses in their hands, went again searching for the details, with the raven-haired young woman having a keen eye when it is about tailoring, and since she touched the dress, she could see feel it had a warm sensation to the touch, as if the dress was emitting energy.

The two didn't say anything, and instead retreated to Fayrene room to change, only afterwards when they returned like goddess that descended into the earth. One that felt like she was the sun, giving off a divine light and another woman that was mysterious as the moon, not losing our to Jeanne that was using her divine powers for capturing Mathias attention, she too released some of her arcane powers, while they were aproaching Mathias who was mesmerized by both of them.

"What do you think our answer is, Master Tailor?"

"Anything I would have given you, would fit perfectly. My skills don't even allow me to build a dress that could put even the Gods to shame when watching both of you. Noo, I will do it, just so when I stand on the top I could watch their pitiful expression of jealousy." mentioned Mathias who was admiring his muses, shining even with his so-so dresses that were intended only to match with the jewels.

Fayrene who got in front of him, pinched his nose in a cute way, while telling him jokingly.

"You can barely sew your socks and underwear, and want to become a master tailor before me? Bad! Bad!"

On another hand Jeanne took Mathias in her arms, to protect him from Fayrene, and it looked as if she was taking his side, while blowing on the nose teased by the raven-haired goddess.

"Sorry sister, but I will make sure he becomes a Master Tailor first."

"Why?"

"Isn't it obvious? So I get to enjoy more time with him and have more dresses done for me." told Jeanne as she showed a mocking expression to Fayrene, who got shocked by the "backstab" playing right in front of her.

"I will not allow it! Mat will work for me, until he grows white hair." said Fayrene as she went to recapture Mathias from Jeanne's hold.

.

In the moment, the two girls were seeming to "quarrel" Haycien who glanced at the show Mathias was participating, and had the chance of noticing Fayrene and Jeanne wearing the clothes he tailored, even he someone who could be said to have meet the most beautiful women, was taken a back.

{Son, you really are a damn, lucky son of a gun. You are more shameless than even this great me.}

Hearing that, Mathias had to split his mind in two portions one that was playing along with the two girls, and their fake quarrel, and another that was talking with Haycien.

'What do you mean? Am I shameless?'

{Obviously, capturing those two dolls, makes you shameless, as if one wasn't enough.]

'I don't want to hear that from you, old man. They aren't perfect, but to me this is all I ever wanted. As for being lucky? Maybe? I could have been rejected by both of them, especially Jeanne.

{Bah, empty talk. If you want to do them, tell me, so I can give you the private space.}

'I am not that horny, having a partner doesn't only mean you have to stick your manhood and procreate.'

{That's a low blow, child. I wasn't like that, at least in my case. I loved all my women dearly, and I gave them enough space and time, so I wouldn't force them to do it with me.}

{But forget about it, it isn't about me here. Tell me while you still mess around, what do you want to work on for training?}

'Isn't today dagger and fist fighting?'

{Good, at least you have the priorities on point. I will leave you alone until then, have fun. Ruffle some of their feathers a bit since they are quite daring today. This will teach them a lesson. Hahaha.}
