I continued to watch as Laila told story after story while slowly taking off more clothes after each story, making an excuse like "it's really hot in here" to do so.
'Another sex fanatic?" I chuckled, yet my expression soured when I heard Hela's retort.
[You and Rose f*cked for almost 12 hours straight... And someone Laila is the sex fanatic]
Hearing what she had said, I felt my brow twitch alongside the strange itching sensations resonating from my fist as if it was begging to hit someone since Hela herself did not have a physical form, unfortunately.
I continued to watch Laila for a bit longer until I had realized the genius behind what she was doing.
While yes, she might have been taking her jacket and even top off, there was always something under that kept everyone from seeing everything and instead satiating their needs with tiny bits of cleavage and exposed skin.
An example of this is when she took her shoes off. Yes, it is nothing like taking her jacket off, something that made her figure more visible, but at the same time, she had deliberately made chosen to not wear socks, keeping the anticipation of all the men in the room on her as they anxiously awaited her to take the next thing off.
For some strange reason, however, I felt a sense of guilt when looking at her and I had no idea why. Her figure alone was eye-candy to anyone whose eyes landed on her, while her relaxed and laid-back personality made her that much hotter in my eyes.
'She's hot' I thought, just for Hela to transmit to me an image that almost made me exclaim in both confusion and laughter.
[Doubt (X)]
Suppressing my already dwindling laughter, I simultaneously suppressed the urge to ask what that was about since there was a chance that the answer would make me laugh, therefore making me the center of attention.
After watching for a few more minutes, I realized that the show that Laila was putting on was about to come to a finale as her eyes darted between a few different guys, taking glances at them with an aura of lust coming off her body.
'lust?' I was utterly confused
[You got the lustful title... Pretty cool, not gonna lie.]
'When?!'
[When your hymen broke and you lost your virginity]
'Really?'
[Yes...]
'Why didn't you tell me then,,,'
[I did tell you. Your head was just so clouded in pleasure and sexual thoughts that you didn't hear me]
'Oh yeah, that did happen didn't it' I sighed out and finally looked at Laila one more time before deciding to leave as I was not very intrigued about who she was going to choose to fuck, since I already knew that she was going to be the center of attention for many today, in both the bar and the sheets.
However, right before my finger was going to touch the door handle that would have let me leave the bar, I heard the same voice that I had been listening to for the last few minutes ring out from behind me.
"Yo~! You! Lilith, right? You're our guildmaster's favorite pet... That one, right? Come here! Why don't you sit with us." Laila called me over, causing my expression to drop and my mood to sour.
'If I wanted to fuck random people I would have asked my mother' I inwardly snorted, yet when I turned around I made sure to keep a neutral body language that did not indicate my disgust and anger that had both caused me to grit my teeth.
"I'll kindly reject that offer" I replied, before trying to turn back towards the door.
To my surprise, however, I saw that the moment I had turned around to face the door was the moment Laila needed to flicker in front of me, blocking my way.
Of course, I saw that she was coming, yet I found it surprising that someone who hadn't even reached the liquidus stage could move so fast.
Looking up at her with a confused expression, she simply looked back at me and smile before throwing her arm over my shoulder and pulling me along to sit with her.
I did not resist for the sole reason that I did not want to ruin my relationship with my new partner before we should have even met, yet my temptation to simply flip her over my shoulder and stomp on her face only grew by the second.
'I should have stayed with Rose...'
The next few hours went by in a flash and it had already reached noon, meaning I was finally givine the cue to leave since I had an excuse now.
"Now if you'll excuse me..." I tried to get up, but Laila quickly yanked me by the arm and sat me down as she suggested...
"You can't leave without telling us a good story! You didn't talk at all so this is your chance"
The smile on her face when she said those words rang so many alarms in my head, yet I ignored them, even though in hindsight, I probably shouldn't have since my instincts are usually never wrong about something.
I guess I probably assumed that I could just deal with whatever came my way no matter what it is was unless it was something above the solidus stage, then I was pretty sure I wouldn't be capable of handling it.
"You want a story?" I asked, this time with a voice that seemed a little more annoyed, yet it seemed like everyone was deaf when it came to any emotion that they didn't want to hear,
"Yes!"
"Tell us!"
"Take your mask off!" Someone from behind the now fully formed crowd shouted, making others shout it before I finally raised my hand and clenched it into a fist while releasing a tiny amount of bloodlust that instantly shut them up.
"Tell them about how you killed the wyvern" Laila whispered, causing me to chuckle maniacally while saying
"You think the wyvern story is worth telling? That was one of the easiest kills in my history of slaughtering beasts" I laughed once again while continuing
"The true treat is hunting humans" My voice rang out in everyone's ears, causing distinct shudders to go through the very being of everyone who had heard it.
