Lightning Leo
136. A professional.

136. A professional.

Madame Ottavia didn’t invite Leo to her place of business. It was more proper to have the ‘once in the lifetime’ experience at home, in her large, white residence that was located not too far from her brothel. It was not the largest building Leo had ever seen, but by the standards of Avila it definitely belonged to an aristocrat or someone who was incredibly rich.

After realizing the owner was rather well off, Leo lost the last bits of guilt and bravely entered the yard where he was met by an elderly steward who politely greeted him and led inside the house. Previously the youth had played out different scenarios in his mind how the event might go, but none were close to what the reality turned out to be.

In the middle of a lavishly decorated hall there was a large table, stacked with food and drinks and around it sat half a dozen ladies at the age ranging from thirty to fifty. They all were dressed in fancy dresses and, judging by their blushed cheeks, have had already quite a few drinks.

When Leo came in, one of the ladies, apparently the hostess, came forth and greeted him. He knew her name was Ottavia Baresi and she looked just like madame Francesca described her – quite short and thin, but despite the age her facial features were rather pleasant. Clearly she was meticulously preparing for this event and her long, white dress, embroidered in gold, clearly indicated how much thought she had put in Leo’s arrival.

Obviously she did intend to fully exploit the fact that she was the one who payed for his services, because after receiving the bouquet from the young man, she indicated him to follow and instead of a bedroom Leo was led to the table and seated next to her. What Leo expected even less was the fact that he was supposed to entertain the bunch with stories of his travels and adventures while the dames listened, drunk and ate.

Fortunately he didn’t have to make anything up. In few words he told about the time he spent in the Oceandesert realm and the Golden city. For some reason the ladies found these stories rather adventureless, but when he mentioned how in Dreadlands he was enslaved by Lana’s group and later by the empress, the atmosphere completely changed.

For some reason dames blushed, but at the same time were full of bashful smiles and inquired in detail how Leo served his new owners. The parts of the warfare and killings were quickly dismissed and what interested them were the intimate parts of lives of the locals.

When everyone realized Leo was barely fourteen at the time, they approvingly praised him for learning the ‘essentials’ at such young age, to what Leo could only cluelessly nod in confusion. To his understanding teenagers should have fun while cultivating and maybe going hunting or fishing, not murdering others, but to each their own – maybe the guests were just trying to be nice. He wasn’t an expert in etiquette to judge.

The whole event abruptly ended when Leo told how he competed during the matrimonial ceremony in the Greenland realm. It didn’t help when he mentioned that the fights were not fair from the start with him being a cultivator who recently stepped into the Core formation stage – eyes of the present shone like stars when he came to the part when the old dryads washed him in order to prepare him for the legendary event.

It looked that the hostess grew impatient and threw everyone out, but for some reason her friends didn’t take it to their hearts and left while loudly laughing and wishing a lot of fun. Once again it didn’t make sense to Leo, but fortunately Ottavia brought him to her bedroom where he already knew what he was supposed to do.

Following madame Francesca’s instructions, he politely apologized and asked for the payment first. Ottavia was startled for a split moment, but then quickly recovered, went over to the nightstand and pulled a small sack from the drawer. Without saying a word she passed it over to Leo who put it in his amulet.

Now when formalities were over, Ottavia didn’t hold back anymore. She tore off Leo’s shirt so quickly the young Core formation stage cultivator barely noticed it and a quick thought ‘if she had stabbed me I might’ve died’ ran trough his mind. Luckily the lady didn’t have bad intentions, but seeing the multitude of scars criss-crossing Leo’s naked chest gave her some kind of a stroke.

Leo never witnessed anyone start convulsing while standing and without getting injured, but fortunately the seizure didn’t take too long. It also mostly afflicted her lower body thus it most likely wasn’t a heart attack, although she did sink her nails under Leo’s skin a bit. The young man did feel ashamed it aroused him while the client was ‘suffering’, but fortunately Ottavia did her best to stay strong.

“Tear … off … my … dress!” She hissed while still slightly shaking and Leo followed her orders.

With a wide motion of his hand, the lady suddenly stood naked while the expensive garments were expertly torn off. Unfortunately it turned out to be a bad idea, because she blushed, her shaking increased and the rapidly increasing temperature of her body clearly indicated she was having a fewer. Leo was not a doctor, but judging from the symptoms it was obvious that Ottavia was unwell.

For some reason the lady ignored her own condition and tightly hugged Leo stretching her face upwards, just like the girls in the ‘Heart and soul’ did after he tipped them with few beast cores. Back in the brothel it basically signified the end of the love making session, but now they were only supposed to begin, right?

Fortunately there was a natural element that helped Leo to concentrate at the task at hand. While Ottavia’s face was rather good looking for her age, her body, no matter how petite it was, was not. Luckily Jack gave his younger friend a valuable advise and Leo, following it, swiftly picked Ottavia up, accompanied by a yelp of surprise put her on her fours on the bed, in a flash oiled his own equipment up and smacked the thing in.

Either it was because she was of rather small stature or he forgot to spread her legs a bit more, Ottavia’s intimate parts were quite tight and as a result Leo managed to score the bonus madame Francesca promised. With the first try he came in one trust and heartily ejected a load of Qi along with the other stuff as an extra for his client’s pleasure.

Then he patted her on the right butt cheek and said, “Good job, dear!” and began to look for a new shirt in the amulet. Judging by Ottavia’s amazed expression she was as satisfied with his performance as he was and now the main task was to not fall asleep like he usually did.

“Oh, I almost forgot!” Leo said to the client who was still on her fours, obviously savoring the aftereffects of the moment of closeness, “Your friend asked me to pass you a letter when we’re done.”

Ottavia mechanically received the piece of paper, sat on the bed, unfolded the letter and suddenly began to hysterically laugh. Even though Leo was curious about the joke madame Francesca wrote her friend, it would’ve been too impolite to read something that was not addressed to him, thus he held back the impulse to peek, politely bowed and said goodbyes. He was rather proud of himself – from the very beginning till the end he behaved like a professional.

“Wait!” Before Leo left the room, Ottavia stopped him, “Could you do me a favor? You’re an amazing cultivator, so is it possible you could leave by the back door so no one noticed you ever left? It would mean a world to me!”

“Sure!” Leo was happy to help. After all he just earned a fortune. And then a sudden thought struck him and he asked, “Would you like me to visit you another time?”

“Oh, no, no, no! You’re too much of a man for me!” Ottavia energetically shook her head and her small, shaggy titties shook along. But then her eyes lit up and she said, “On the other hand … I think there might be someone I could recommend you to. Come by tomorrow afternoon, let’s talk then.”

At first the whole thing was incredibly hysterical, well, hysterically expensive prank, but few moments later Ottavia realized that for some moronic reason she decided to invite the cream of the crop of Avila’s aristocratic society, the female part that is. Why in the world did she have to brag that the Legendary Leo was her lover? She f*cking payed a fortune for nothing and these news will spread through the city like a wildfire!

So what if no one knew of Leo’s ‘prowess’ now? He has been going to the ‘Heart and soul’ for days and sooner or later someone will find out the guy was a quick shot. And then, while most people would find amusing the fact that the hero who could fight against an enemy army for days straight could not last a heartbeat in bed, the news of her paying an immortal spirit stone for a load of bodily liquids will top everything!

Fortunately Ottavia’s quick wit did not let her down. Contrary to the other madams who owned brothel’s around the city her main weapon has never been her looks, but the sharp mind. It didn’t take long for her to think of the only way out and this time it depended on the young man she was just pranked with.

Leo was not sure why his first client wanted him to leave unnoticed, especially since he arrived with a large bouquet of flowers for everyone to see. Luckily with his current skill level it was a piece of cake to sneak out without anyone seeing and, after dashing through a couple of back yards, he found a remote spot where to settle down and cultivate for a bit. Earlier it did take all his willpower to not fall asleep, but now that he had taken up the new craft, he had to pay attention to his own reputation and people seeing him passed out in a random corner might seriously damage it. Similarly he couldn’t sleep off the exhaustion at the client’s place, thus Ottavia’s request to stealthily leave worked in his interests.

Later in the afternoon Leo arrived at the ‘Heart and soul’ to report about his earlier performance to madame Francesca who, for some reason, didn’t seem to be too happy after hearing the story. She did laugh at first, but then grew serious, gave him a box with the promised immortal spirit stone and, to the great disappointment of her staff, shooed him away.

Of course, Leo didn’t know she got worried about her friend since Francesca never could’ve guessed the dumbo would invite others over to brag. But no matter how stupid was the thing Ottavia did, now was the time for damage control, thus she rushed over to her friend’s place to help out and to laugh in her face a bit as well.

It didn’t take too long for the two friends to come up with a plan. Some might call it devious or even cruel, but Francesca and Ottavia decided to stick with the term ‘simple’. In essence it was all about spreading the word of Ottavia’s last night’s adventure and Leo’s incredible skill and unbelievable performance.

The next morning she invited over the same dames in addition to few new ones. While everyone was drinking white wine and snacking on sweets, Ottavia appeared ravaged and exhausted, seemingly too weak to entertain the guests, but they managed to do all the ‘hard lifting’ by themselves letting their fantasies do the job. Last night each lady did their own ‘homework’ and Leo’s feat during the Seven peaks incident had become a common knowledge. Testimonies of eyewitnesses of him hunting dragons and eating their testicles was the last ‘proof’ everyone needed to verify his prowess in bed and guests, few jokingly while some serious, one after another began to demand Ottavia to ‘share’ him – after all the hero was from their city and belonged to everyone.

Now all that was left was for her to bashfully confess that the guy was actually earning cultivation resources and wasn’t her ‘lover’ per se, but she could talk to him if he would agree to ‘spread the love’. The unbelievably steep price made everyone weary at first that this could be a scam, but the argument of a Core formation cultivator needing premium cultivation resources was solid as well as the fact that the guy could simply go to their homes and take anything he fancied without asking anyway – besides the handful of the Nascent soul stage monsters there was no one in the world to stop him.

When later in the day Leo arrived at Ottavia’s place, he was pleasantly surprised by his first client arranging him a bunch of opportunities to earn more immortal spirit stones. His hart even skipped a beat when he realized she cared for him so much she refused the offers of everyone older than her and instead those ladies could only acquire his services for their daughters. With the assistance of Francesca the two brothel owners organized a tight schedule for the young man for the next ten days during which he could earn the necessary amount of spirit stones and even more, if he worked hard enough.

Seeing the ladies try so hard, Leo promised himself to do both of them for free after everything was over. No matter their age or looks, they took such a good care of him and he had to repay them the best he could. Of course, being owners of their own brothels, the two were well off, thus him offering his unique skills was the only way he could thank them.
