Questionable
Ahko quickly leaves the 3 who are still in a daze and what it looks like will take some time to calm them down, she goes to Lydia's section trying to look as disuasive as possible, but failed miserably as anything she does even if she doesn't want to, she do it in elegance which pissed some people off in the guild.
"A-Ahko..." Lydia mumbles.
"Long time no see..." Ahko uttered.
"It's only been a week.."
"Well, it's still long enough to make you worried, right?"
"W-Whatever, H-How..?" Lydia asked quietly.
"Blessing.." Ahko answered with a sigh.
"... W-what..?"
"I'll tell you later. Now I need my adventurer ID."
"Oh... You finally remembered you have an adventurer ID.."
"It was a busy month." Ahko shrugged.
"Busy of what? You can just finish a mission in a day... Yet, you left for weeks at a time.."
"Mhm, now I need my ID."
"...Well... For the ID renewal, I need to check your rank..."
"... Do.. I really have to...?"
"It's the policy."
"I know you are lying, Lydia..."
"Tch, how you know?"
"I just know. Can you just put G rank in there...?"
"Nope."
"... Lydia..."
Silence falls between the two, and then it hits Lydia. An invisible weight slammed down and weakened her knees. Cold sweat ran down not only her back but every part of her body as she tried to hold and keep her knees together. Her muscles tensed, her heart kicking into a frantic rhythm. The breath in her lungs turned sharp and shallow, her chest rising in rapid, panicked bursts. She looks at Ahko, her gaze is so tense she looks away the second she tries to. Ahko looks away and closes her eyes after what feels like an eternity for Lydia.
The invisible weight disappeared. She almost crumpled to the ground but was able to hold herself together using her arms, gasping for breath like she’d just surfaced from deep underwater. The weight may be gone, but the fear inside her wasn’t. Her breath came in ragged bursts, and slowly but surely, she looked towards the girl that did this to her.
"W-What the hell..." Lydia speaks weakly.
"Don't test me, Lydia."
"W-What the hell did you do...?"
"I will not answer that. Now can you put G rank in my ID..?" Ahko uttered as her voice rises at the end.
"H-H-Hell no..! Y-You better tell me w-what you d-"
"You wouldn't want to end up on the floor, would you?" Ahko cuts off Lydia and tilts her head.
"... E-Even if I want to... I can't..." Lydia took a deep sigh between her ragged breathing.
"Huh? Why's that?"
"Y-Your past mission is already been registered in your name, I-I can't just put no name a-and the guildmaster told me to give you a new rank.." Lydia answered.
"... Why can't you just put it under Layla's name or my 2 slaves?"
"W-Well... She refused. Kate and Alya wouldn't want to take credit from their mistress..."
"... Looks like I have to tell them next time.." Ahko sighed.
"Y-Yeah.. You should be..."
"... So the staff know about me earlier...?" Ahko asked.
"N-No... At least not them... But the guild master knows."
"Did he do something about it..?"
"For now, he didn't say anything or take any action. Safe to say he's also keeping the secret or just didn't care..."
"He wasn't thinking like you did a mistake or something?"
"I don't think so..."
"... Whatever, let's get this over with."
"Alright... Please put your hand on the orb when you are ready.."
Ahko put her hand onto the orb and waited for the moment to happen. The good thing about this orb is that it's not as advanced as the system, so it can't show something like the stats or abilities. The only thing it can do is show the rank and what class she's in, it's fast but inefficient.
Compared that to the rank stating orb in the more wealthy people's lives like inside the central city of the kingdom. The guild's orbs in there are much more advanced than the orbs in here, it can measure how much the stats are for many people. Their abilities, skills, passive abilities, and even spells rather than just a simple rank. Though the measurement isn't as good as the system but it still pretty advance regardless, but the downside of the orbs are they took a little longer than the low quality orbs, but that didn't matter considering the ranks and stats it'll show are more worth it and it'll definitely increased someone's ego and pride.
Ahko braced for the amount of attention she's going to get when the orb shines brightly, she could just walk away and never touch the orb until the moment where S ranks are common, but it'll be a hassle to throw away many coins at the guards, and she doesn't know if the adventurer ID will be much more important than just a card for her to go in and out of the city. The orb shone with a light blue color as the light blinded almost everyone in the guild. Once the light subsided, Ahko could see the orb cracking a little since it couldn't handle the rank of hers.
Name: Ahko Hanozono
Rank: S Rank!
Class: Hybrid!
Gasps can be heard when before the orb said Ahko's rank out loud and after the orb says it. When someone gets their rank, the orb will shine depending on their rank. If it's red and shines a little that means that person is a F rank, the orb will shne from red that is F rank up to purple that is a SSS rank and the shine will become brighter and brighter, though if someone's rank is that high it can cause the orb to fracture before it can state their rank. In Ahko's case, the orb shines at a light blue color and blinds almost everyone who is unprepared.
Ahko could hear many adventurers talking behind her back, discussing how she an S rank when she'd been a G rank months ago. Some already know how her rank goes that high, she got blessed by one of the gods, which infuriates them as they spread the words that her rank is a fake and boosted by a god. Ahko remains silent and tries to ignore them.
"My ID." Ahko talked with a bit of rage in her voice.
"R-Right... P-Please wait..."
"Make it quick."
Ahko walked away from Lydia's section to give her time to make her ID, but when she tried to go to her seat. 12 men walk up to her and circle her. All of them weren't big or jacket, though their mind are stupid enough to think that they would win against Ahko.
"So this G rank girl got a blessing, and now she's an S rank?"
"What a lucky girl you are, huh?"
"You finally have something's going on."
"Heh, you are so weak even a god took pity on you."
"But behind all that, you are just a weak girl as you were months ago~"
"Maybe you have some abilities, but you don't have the skills."
"When we beat the shit out of you, then you'll know your place whore."
"You can't get rid of your past~"
"I wonder what kind of classes you have since you are a hybrid one.. Perhaps, prostitution and just a fucking whore~?"
"Look at these tits~ did the blessing just make your body sluttier~?"
"The god were kind enough to make your whore body even more like a whore~"
"Perfect round ass~ Perfect tits too~"
"I wonder if you still have your stamina months ago~"
"I'm sure she prostitutes herself since that's all she knows~"
"Did you even get money at least? Or you just there for the pleasure?"
"Whatever you're thinking about escaping, you can't~"
"Can't talk, huh? Are the vocabulary that you know are moans and cocks~?"
"You just gonna stand there and do nothing? We're giving you a chance to fight you know~"
"Looks like she's about to wet her panties~"
"Oh~? Are you excited for our cocks?"
"Let's look at your new body~"
One of the men extends his hand, trying to grab Ahko's shoulder. In a fraction of a second, Ahko grabbed her dagger, slashed the man's arm, and put her dagger back into its sleeve as if to make it look like an invisible blade had just separated the man's arm from his body. His eyes finally caught on, but it was already too late. His arm falls to the ground, blood spouting from the wound like a fountain. Screams can be heard even outside of the guild as he holds his bleeding shoulder.
"W-What the fuck!?"
"What the fuck did you d-"
Ahko didn't hesitate to cut the throats of the 12 men, she could have just slashed their necks entirely, but she wanted more than just a simple death. She wanted to see a little more despair in their eyes as they realized blood was coming out of their necks and covering Ahko. They tried to grab whatever weapon they had, but the pain was too much to bear as they saw Ahko grin widely, they fell to the ground, seemingly dead.
Silence fell into the guild, then realization of what just happened. screams of fear, and most of the adventurers ran away as far as they could from the guild. Those who were still in the guild that weren't even bothered by Ahko's act slowly left the guild, they didn't want to be involved with such a thing. Until there's only Lydia, Layla, Alya, Kate, and Ahko.
The 2 slaves walk towards their mistress and bow deeply, not caring about the 12 men who just insulted and made fun of their mistress. They even kicked the 12 men to the side to make room for Ahko to walk onto her seat, as if they knew what was going to happen. They took napkins from their pockets and started cleaning their Mistress. Cleaning her clothes wasn't a problem, but as soon as they touched Ahko's skin, a slight jolt of pleasure rose within them. They couldn't help but bite their lips and imagine what their mistress looked like under those clothes.
"... I'm removing you two's emotional feelings."
"Wait, no Mistres-"
Silence fell between the 2 slaves, they dropped the napkins and stared in front of them for a few moments. Layla looks at this phenomenon and sees the lights in their eyes has vanished, and the color of their eyes are almost gone, replaced by black color. Then, the lights in their eyes came back, they jolted for a moment, then grabbed the napkins on the floor, dusted them off a little, and continued to clean their Mistress, but this time, there's no flustered look on them or even a slight blush on their cheeks. It's as if their emotional thinking has been wiped out, no thought can be seen in their eyes.
"W-What the fuck happened to them?" Layla questioned with fear.
"I wiped their emotions, now they can't feel anything while touching me." Ahko answered nonchalantly.
"W-Wiped their emotions!? How the hell did you do that!?!?"
"Since they are my slaves, I have control over everything, even making their emotions go dull."
"Everything!!? W-What!? N-No instances where a master can just wipe their slave's emotions!!!" Lydia, who was behind her desk, is now standing beside the table with her hands slams on it.
"Everything. I can even make them go kill themselves if I wanted to."
"W-What kind of ability did you gain from the god!?" Layla asked.
"4, actually."
"F-F-FOUR!!?" Both of them shouted in surprised.
"Is there something wrong?" Ahko titled her head.
"THE FUCK YOU MEAN THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG!? 4 GODS BLESSED YOUR ASS!!" Layla yelled.
"They sure did.." Ahko sighed.
"W-W-What kind of gods are they...?"
"Hmmm? Why are you asking that? You already know what kind of gods they are. I'm a demon after all, no saint gods will ever blessed me."
"I-I guess that's true..."
"They willingly give bit of their powers to you..?"
"You can say that."
"... W-Who were the gods...?" Lydia asked.
"The God of Demons, The God of Mischief, The God of Darkness, The God of Desires."
".. So... The God of Desires makes your... Appearance mesmerizing..?" Layla muttered.
"Yeah... I fucking hate her for this." Ahko huffs.
"Why...? Your beauty went up like 10 times, and you can turn into your human form." Lydia commented.
"That's only the good ones. You know what happens if someone touches my skin."
"R-Right..." Layla nodded her head.
"And you were staring at my eyes a lot."
"I-I can't help it..." Layla look away flushed
"You see... This is only good if I'm a narcissist and love all the attention."
"You are kind of?"
"I don't want to reveal my demon form. Yet."
"W-What are you gonna do when the time is right...?" Lydia questioned.
"Isn't that obvious? Kill them. Kill all the humans, no one is safe."
"E-E-Even us...?" Layla trembled.
"Even you, if you betrayed me."
"O-Oh I would never!" Layla shakes her head furiously.
"Who's dumb enough to snitches on my Ahko!?" Lydia shouted.
"You two might be good girls right now, but who knows, maybe next day? Next week, next month, next year, decades later? Then you talk."
"Hahaha... W-We'll always by your side, Ahko..." Layla awkwardly laughs.
"We'll see..."
The moment Ahko uttered those words, her round sapphire eyes turned into slit dark red and are staring towards the 2 helpless humans. Both of them felt her gaze within seconds and chills running down their spines as they couldn't get rid of their eye contact with Ahko even though she kept changing her gaze from Layla to Lydia back and forth.
The 2 slaves finished cleaning their Mistress and their hands gently clasped together in front. Ahko closes her eyes, making Layla and Lydia sigh in relief. Ahko then stood up and went to the mission board.
[Solving The Mysterious Missing Yotein Villagers]
A party is required, and all members should be at least A-rank.
Rewards: 300 Silver Coins
Ahko grabs the mission paper, walks towards Lydia's empty desk, puts it, and leaves. Confused, she goes to her desk and sees what the mission is. Her eyes widened, seeing what the mission was, then she sighed in acceptance since she couldn't stop Ahko from doing so.
Outside, hundreds of people have gathered, most of whom startles when the culprit goes out of the guild. Multiple guards have been surrounding the guild, not making anyone go inside to see the massacre until the culprit gets taken care of. When they see Ahko outside, they immediately unsheathe their swords and point them toward Ahko's neck.
"Stop! You are under arrest for murdering 12 people!!"
Ahko, unfazed by this, knocked all the swords with her hand. her hand did not even get injured even though she knocked all the swords to the sides and not on the top of the swords like any other normal human being.
"Do you all want to end up like them?" Ahko closes her eyes, knowing the answer.
The guards freeze when they hear Ahko's statement and slowly make room for Ahko to leave the crowd, knowing they can't do anything against her strength. What can you do against someone who has been blessed by a god? It's almost unheard of in Priya City.
Ahko sits on a bench outside of the gates, waiting for her slaves and Layla to come and guide her to the inn. Meanwhile, Layla, Lydia, Kate, and Alya have been taken to the guard's station for interrogation.
"So? Why didn't you guys leave while that monster killed 12 men? Are you guys with that monster?" One of the guards questioned.
"You living under a rock or something? Of course they are, those two are her slaves, and these two are her companions." One of the guards commented.
"So, did you 4 help her out on this one?"
"If you did, then you 4 would get a heavy consequences."
"It's only her, we have nothing to do with this." Layla stated.
"The 12 men just showed up, provoking her, and since she has a deep wound in her heart, she killed them." Lydia uttered.
"True, true, but that doesn't mean she has to kill them. She can just ignore them and continue with her day."
"One of them was trying to put his hand on her shoulder, so in response, she killed them." Layla explained.
"Mistress was only trying to protect herself."
"If Mistress didn't do anything, you already know what they going to do with her."
"They also have caused some trouble in the guild, so I can say that her action may cause more good than harm." Lydia stated.
"How can we know what you are saying is true?"
"You can ask the many adventurers that were inside the guild when they were harrassing her."
"I mean... I heard they like to harrass women everyday." One of the guards made a point.
"Even if they are total douchebag, she can't kill them."
"So you rather to see a woman getting raped in front of many people?" Layla looks at them in disgust.
"... I don't think the G rank girl would mind since she already experienced..."
"She's not the G rank girl you guys know. She's an S rank now." Lydia muttered.
"S RANK!?"
"That girl!? The G rank girl!? Is an S rank!? Bullshit!!"
"You two deaf or something? People outside the guild literally talking about her becoming a S rank and her killing those 12 men."
"Oh... They did?"
"Oh my god, Kyle.."
"W-Whatever, why are we going out of topic? We're supposed to talk about her murders!"
"Aren't you the one who started it...?"
"Shut up. You 4, get that girl to the station now."
"I don't think she'll cooperate with you guys.." Lydia sighed.
"What do you think would have happened if she hadn't cooperated with us?" Kyle smirks.
"She'll... either kill you guys, or... torture first then kill you guys..." Layla answered.
"... What?"
"Mistress will not hesitate to get rid of people that are in her way."
"You guards are lucky Mistress didn't kill you all back then."
"We just didn't want to put more casualties on top of the already 12.."
"You guys are a bunch of pussies, did you guys wet your pants when face against her?"
"Kyle, shut the fuck up for once, and you will wet your pants when you tried to fight her."
"Oh, try me."
.
.
.
A couple of hours passed. Ahko has been surrounded by many people, some talking about her, mainly about her massacre of those 12 men. She could just stay with her Lord, but she didn't want to burden him after what she'd done. The 2 slaves come up to her and guide her to the inn, and she goes inside the room where Layla is already waiting for her. An awkward silence falls, though not as much as Ahko, as she seems like she's dazed off.
