As it turns out I was out of action for a lot longer than I expected, I swear that Ryuu was while it made extra work for her enjoyed being my physician and using her magic in such a way that she knew how badly damaged my body was but allowed my body to recover on it's own. I had also Learned that Chloe decided that she was my nurse/guard and that if I was going to maintain my secret I had to limit myself to going after everyone was headed for bed. This morning Ryuu told Mia and I that I could start light duty but that if I fucked with the dungeon at all to make sure that I did not go past the third floor as there was a chance I would collapse again if I pushed myself. this brought a big grin from Mia. kid don't even think about the dungeon today your going to be waiting on tables and making some money you owe the girls a bit and I won't have you running off and possibly getting yourself killed, if you decide to be difficult about it I can always go get a collar for you I might not like it but it can be done. you don't have to worry about us selling your debt but you will work yourself hard.

Nodding my head I agreed to work for half pay till my debt was payed and asked if I could work part time after that to keep my room and to pay for meals till I found a Familia. Mia seemed to be debating if it was worth it when Chloe said she would ask what the others thought. Not long after there was a vote and it was decided I had a part time job after my debt was paid and that this was now my room. I had no idea how the girls delt with so many handsy customers every night or if I was just the unlucky one but drunk adventures seemed to go for it based on their perception of whether or not I was a dude or a chick most guys kept themselves limited to hungry looks but the female adventures would grab at me or try to get me to sit with them Mia did not seem to worry to much.

At least until I had to ask what one of the customers meant by "what's your hourly rate hot stuff?" That set Mia off like a match to a powder keg... apparently the fool had mistaken the Hostess of Fertility for a brothel. I was definitely not sure how to react that a female adventurer wanted to pay to fuck me for who knows how long. That thought had me blushing for a good chunk of the night so much so that Chloe figured that I had begun running a fever and she was going to make sure I was okay, she spent the night checking on me till I told her she could stay in my room with me for the night at which point she promptly fell asleep almost like one of those kittens in the YouTube videos that does not want to nap.

A month later my debt was settled and I'm feeling rather flustered surrounded by women that I would have been more than happy to sleep with had they wanted but it was very obvious doing so would have me collared and beaten by Mia. I booked it to the dungeon to take it out on the monsters there the first floor more of just an entrance and was free of monsters so I went to the second which for what ever accursed reason was spiders which where easy prey for me I killed what must have been a solid 140 of them before I left the dungeon for the day around noon so I could get cleaned up and be ready to work my part time job. I sold my magic stones that I collected in the dungeon for an amount I felt that would have been better to keep to make magic items but 1090 valis was not to bad for 3 hours farming the weakest monsters in the dungeon.

While I was there I asked about a cheap bath house in the area that I had taken to living in and Rubia was more than happy to tell me about a place that I could bathe privately and that is would cost nearly every thing I made today shrugging I went ahead and got me a bath doing my best to not think about my co-workers and what those thirsty adventurers might find if they went to grab me and I turned around. By the time I was at the Hostess of fertility I was in some bad shape mentally I knew I would need to get laid sooner or later but I figured I could handle it for another month maybe two before I Had to go find some relief I also knew it would cost me if I chose to seek out a "professional".

Mia pulled me aside and gave me a small bag of money when I tried to hand it back she would not take it. That money is your share of the tips the girls decided that you should be getting your tips from the start... That and I think you need them cause that was no fever and you have been in a state since I know of a place where they got working' girls that they keep clean and for a decent price just promise me you won't eat or drink there cause that's where the corners get cut. Just take the night off and get your head on straight again the place is called The Airie make sure you pay for your time before and with witnesses the lady that owns the place won't hesitate to slap a collar around your neck and I want you to do what ever you need and get yourself back here for the girls my only request is you don't make the girls and I come looking for ya. now get. Mia said looking like she meant it. I wondered around trying hard to not think about it but realized that not only had Mai given me expressed permission to go fuck around but even told me somewhere she believed I'd be safe doing so. I worried just how much of my private business had been figured out and how obvious had it been or was it only that I needed laid?
