Chapter 40 — Rizzling Up

Normally, the streets of Peach Blossoms was always bustling and filled with activity.. it was a normalcy for a town that attracted a large crowd of tourists on a daily basis. However today, the bustling activities were five times larger than normal.

"What exactly is this Week of Old Harvest anyways?" Jason keenly observed the bustling festivities on the streets through the mirror.

They were currently riding in a Mercedes Maybach Exero. However one funny thing was this was the only vehicle that could be found on the streets.. that was filled with a throng of crowds all clad in carnival masks and about a dozen parade floats ridden by people in colorful carnival masks and costumes.

Jason could swear that if he looked too much, his eyes might go blind from the brilliant varieties of colors on display.

"This is one of the most sought after events in Peach Blossoms. According to the lore, the early settlers of this town were all farmers.. it was a very difficult time for them each season considering the soil in this place was far from fertile.." Dr. Damian smiled, he seemed to be reminiscing something.

"However things changed when they met their god called Laban.. he gave them a promise.. if they never gave up hope and always gave thanks instead, things will turn out for the better. These early settlers then picked up a date in the year and the event called Old Harvest festival came into life.."

"Watch closely "

Tilting his head over, Jason noticed that once in a while, the parade float riders would throw out painted stuffs onto the crowd.. stuffs ranging from oranges, bananas, peaches, etc.

"What are they doing?" Jason was far from impressed.

If he were to honestly speak his mind, their actions looked more primitive to him. Throwing stuff around? what if someone got hit in the head and died?

"Those on the parade float are called the Pillagers and those stuffs they throw at the crowd are called the Harvest Tokens.. they are the harvested produces stored up the previous day. The essence of the Old Harvest week is all about giving.. giving up all things of the past in anticipation for a new and bountiful harvest in the future.."

"That doesn't sound so impressive.. they are merely throwing corns and oranges" Jason curled his lips in disinterest.

"Then you haven't tasted corns and Oranges grown by Peach Blossom Farmers.. it is out of this world.." Dr. Damian grinned.

.

.

Almost every street nook and cranny was filled to the brim with parading crowds of locals and tourists alike as well as a multitude of parade floats. However the place with the most activity was actually Grill Square..

A sleek Mercedes Maybach Exero rolled in and came to a halt at a parking lot in the corner as two figures alighted.. they were Jason and Dr. Damian.

The public square was filled to the brim with a crowd of paraders, small kiosks selling snacks and a band of musicians playing their instruments. However unlike the other parts in the town, those present were only wearing masks with the ladies clad in flowery dresses and the men sticking to the same dress code like Jason and Dr. Damian.

"It's like we stepped into another world entirely' tilting his head around, Jason couldn't find any parade float in sight.

"Did I forget to tell you that Old Harvest week also has a public ball.. however it is only held during the last day of the event.. " Dr. Damian explained with a chuckle when he noticed the confused look on Jason's expression.

"Damian? so you really showed up?" just then, Jason noticed a couple walking towards them, hand in hand.

The male was a chubby man with a wine glass in his grip and the female was a middle aged lady with Auburn hair. Her face was covered with a fox mask with eyeliners however her bodily curves pronounced through the dress she was wearing was a clear indication that she was a beauty. As for the man, he was sporting a bat mask; completely unimpressive.

Seeing the two couples approaching, a wide grin got plastered on Dr. Damian's lips..

—[EDITOR SLAV: Makes sense, since he and Jason are the only ones without masks)

"Jason, I want you to meet Mayor Riverrun and his beautiful wife.. Mrs Riverrun"

Dr. Damian and the so called Mayor Riverrun shook hands.

"Aw c'mon Damian.. you don't have to act so formal.. I thought we've already moved past that kind of thing.." Mayor Riverrun chuckled.

"Hm? is that a replica of the Barbara Hutton pearl necklace?" Jason commented as his eyes fell on the neck of Mrs. Riverrun.

It was unknown whether he was staring at her cleavage, or the shiny pearl necklace around her neck.

"You can tell? you really have sharp eyes.." Mrs. Riverrun sounded oddly surprised.

"I heard that only twelve of such replicas were made globally and the cheapest was priced at the minimum of fifteen thousand dollars. I once saw one go for ninety seven thousand at a fancy auction.." Jason added.

"Oh really?" now Mrs. Riverrun was confused.

How old was this brat, yet he was claiming to have attended a fancy auction?!

"Yup. The price was moving too slow so I just bought it for a hundred and twelve.. however from what I can see, this replica doesn't look good on you" Jason rubbed both palms against each other as a cheeky smile curled up on his lips.

"What do you mean?"

"This original pearl necklace was initially owned by a French Queen and then by Barbara Hutton who married a prince if I am not mistaken. The pearl is specially made for beautiful queens, it's only natural that the replica wouldn't suite a beautiful queen like you" dropping these words, Jason's did something completely unbelievable.

He brazenly grabbed Mrs. Riverrun's hand and kissed it.

"O-Oh wow " even a married lady couldn't help but stutter.

Thanks to the fox mask she wore, nobody could see the embarrassing blush on her cheeks.

Retracing his lips, Jason adjusted his tie as he continued speaking.

"I can tell that you are a woman of fashion.. I just happened to be one as well.. a man of course.. why don't we hangout one of these days and exchange pointers?"

Cold sweat rolled down Dr. Damian's face when he heard Jason's brazen request. This little bastard!

Forgetting the fact that the other party was married and married to the Mayor to boot, her husband was standing a couple feet away yet he dared hit on her.

Did he have a death wish or something?!

"Kofff. Koff. Since Christine and I have said our greetings, I am afraid we'll be taking our leave now " Mayor Riverrun coughed awkwardly as he dragged his wife away before her next reply could embarrass him.

"Tch. An attractive milf with a mediocre husband.. looks like this town isn't so bad after all " Jason clicked his tongue as he watched the couple leave.

"Do you think this is a Brazzers video? you've been watching weird stuff now you can't even differentiate fiction from reality" Dr. Damian scoffed from besides Jason.

"Don't leave my sight alright? I don't want you making any trouble for me" he gave the teen a stern warning.
