Underground Sewer - Located Beneath the Falx City (specifically the Red Light District)

Bit of droplets dripped from the wet stones; plopping sound echoes around the closed space. The walls were caves with similar indoor features except there were greenish-coated rocks which thought to be a stone mountain. Moonlight only shone from above the round ceiling hole. Chilly breeze caused the fear spreading throughout everywhere. Rough scent wafted around the underground surface.

Wondering around, there were two ladies — Mirai, and Veronica — who arrived and stood here to show what they meant to be fun. Their relaxed pace could worsen their balance of concentration, but the matter didn't rein them to lose their confidence. Despite Veronica having only white laces and nipple piercings, she fretted without bothersome fuss. While Mirai wore her decent monochromatic-styled frock coat.

"So this is the place–," Mirai said in a quiet pant, causing the echo voices.

"Shush~ Beware though, you might have caught someone's attention," Veronica muttered.

"I'm sorry… I'll just zip my mouth for now," Mirai murmured as she started to silent herself since she didn't want to disappoint Veronica's fun. She felt curious around her since Juliette assigned them to give some clues under the Red-Light District. Although Veronica told her she isn't part of the Black Resort Division, their trust relationship helped them together with Mirai to find something odd and harmful around the secrets of the corrupt parties' reputation. Incidentally, both of the senior-looking ladies shared the same interests — exhibitionism — which made Mirai sweated out with an awkward smirk.

While Mirai was thinking of her concerns, Veronica wandered around the place until she spotted the wooden thin door leading to the probable entrance. She prowled with her bare feet to check for their heedful sense. Upon she reached it, she softly touched the door — until she felt something predictable. A strange inch-jiggle caused her narrow catch.

With her cautious response, she suddenly held her arm back in an elbow-angle and extended her blade-like fingernails till about 45 inches — forming a vicious claw and aiming at the middle up base. Unleashing her surge, she struck the door with a piercing force of her claw through the thin-layered wood. Light splintering sound startled them, and even Mirai widened her eyes.

As a result, she felt something inelastic yet flexible as meat — perhaps there was something dripping over her nails. She heard of someone choking

"Jackpot~," Veronica muttered with her smirk. "I never knew that this place is fully occupied by some cartels. I guess my predicting skills are still better as it is."

"Are there more people?" Mirai asked in a low, soft voice.

"Sure wonder, my careful instincts can tell that this is just a deaf lone man leaning on this door."

"Are you going to kick the door? Because it might cause a large commotion."

"I told you that this will be fun," Veronica prepared her legs up at the thin door and kicked the door lightly to push it while it left loose. "Now since the noises have been dealt with, take your heedful eyes as the fun is about to begin."

Once the doorway completely gave them an empty path, Veronica rushed forward as she sought the hiding spot that could keep the avoidance of her exposure. The body somehow flew off to the canal because of her pushing force. Meanwhile, Mirai vigilantly followed her with cautious hands. Upon entering the sewer, the waste-filled water flowed through the canal's current, and the eerie odor wafted around their nostrils, which made Mirai cover her nose tightly to avoid the entrance of the smell. She promised herself not to take a swim around the dirty water.

"Where is she though?" Mirai muttered while facing every nook and cranny to reconvene with Veronica. Somehow, there was no simple presence of her. She probably thought of being left out without trails. She did not understand how to take the first move, but everything she saw was the wall with sizeable holes of probable waste and big pipes directing to the very end.

Instantly, someone threw the rock behind her to send a silent yet attractive signal. It hit Mirai's rear of her head as she placed her palm to where the pain went through. Turning back to blame, it was Veronica who hid inside the messy-graved junk pieces, scattering around in one place — laying down around her. Her hiding spot was an under-convenient space of the collective of rubbish-looking objects which Mirai despised not to proceed along. The clearance could fit around a decent size of a humanoid figure — at least.

"What's going on? I heard something kicking the door."

"Indeed… I, too, feel something strange."

Incidentally, Mirai heard multiple noises who ought to be curious about what happened in their certain area. She sweated out of her nerve-racking eyes. She inhaled to relieve her fear, so she headed along with Veronica despite the grubby site. She, too, experienced the same as her.

"Why do I have to go through like this?" Mirai murmured for question.

Their rule was a low-audible conversation.

"It's pretty convenient for you to say that," Veronica replied while fixing her position.

"What do you mean? We could have just run around like nothing else happened."

"How could you say that to the naked woman?"

"I mean… that's why I asked you to wear some decent clothes in the first place?"

".... You really don't understand what I might intend to."

"..."

"Well… there's one thing that we can pass by too. For this, we'll clear ourselves up."

"Eh?"

"Let me show you how… just wait and see," Veronica winked while she stood up with an assertive posture. Even though she had only a bare body with limb covers and nipple-piercing, she planned to act as the teaser to bait them with her seductive technique — with her alluring body and personality.

"(I might doubt her plan as if she's an elf with worth disfavoring to their eyes,)" Mirai thought while peeking closer for following up the scenario.

Meanwhile, Veronica wiped the dirt away coming from the dripping dirt awhile ago. She made herself up to regain her confidence and aura and prepare for her take-off plan. At first, she posed with her hands nesting against her hips while flexing her curves with a clear shot of her bottom front.

She ambled towards the curious men with a red frock coat and shoulder-armed musket. With her jiggling bust, her eyes contacted them with a trustful smirk — although she eased her face to admire them for their language.

Thus, the play began.

"Oh my~ I wish I could have found somewhere neat around here," she intentionally muttered to give their "normal," attention.

One man whistled and said, "What a beautiful wanderer you are…. Why does a maiden like you being lost to this ill-fated place?"

He fancied over her as she deliberately expected to bait their first impression while the rest of two dropped their jaw with protruded lips and deep constant pants. Their affected heart throbbed as the lust reigned over them.

"Looks like it's our lucky day to spend our break from patrolling duty."

".... Yeah, our dream has finally come true!"

Their feasting eyes aroused Veronica as she urged posing more techniques to reverse back to them. The hormones drove around their rushing blood which their erect penises bulged through their trousers. She gazed at their bottom part and licked her own lascivious lips; then, she pressed her lips with her upper tooth as she bit it to catch their hunger.

Ambling to reach them, her soft, enticing hands pressed their cheeks — gradually downed it till their bulged part. She was an elf that these redcoats didn't notice closely since their eyes gaze wholly from top to bottom, but she expected that it would work until she spotted an open spot for a trigger.

She whispered in front of them, "If you desired to achieve eternal pleasure, what would it be?"

Silence broke out with their fiery sweats dripping around their entire body.

"Oh, please… I would want to hit on every woman," he responded.

"Same with me."

"It will be more pleasurable if more gold is on our hands. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!."

Then, Veronica asked one more time, "So, is that your last preference?"

Every three of them nodded while their jaws dropped extensively. They expected their paradise to be fantastic as it ideally made to redeem their wholehearted desire. Starting to execute, Veronica kissed the man in the center while she stirred around their neck, causing their weakened state — until it turned cutthroat.

"Hack~.... W... hyyyy?"

"..."

The man whom she kissed at had gradually drained his life-force till their flesh dried out of their blood. The cause of this impact came from her engulfing mouth, the gateway of stealing his life-force from him. Like a forceful spit of loose grasp, she released her advantage through embracing while he coughed and vomited his reddish paint out of his inch of breath. Meanwhile, her nails suddenly extended and pierced through their open throat with a clear spot to strike against their breathing passage. Their widened eyes shut excessively as they blanked their vision like a broken TV screen.

Mirai gasped as she witnessed the impact of their answer.

"You said that it was your eternal desire, so I grant your wish with a respectful blessing," Veronica answered while putting her fingers into her own mouth and licking around the tip.

"I–I–I can't believe that… you do this…. H–How?," Mirai said with her shocking slur.

"Scary, isn't it? Not so scary that they finally fulfilled their dream… at least it's not worth spending a nightmare."

"With your fake slutty technique, I can tell that you're using voyeurism for the sake to weaken every man's will and intention."

"You've got it right? How come you know about this?... Was Juliette an outstanding teacher of yours?"

"I guess I heard the word and definition from somewhere else… not Juliette though."

"You, too, sound odd."

"..."

Appreciating her knowledge, Veronica smirked with her hopeful eyes.

"Let's proceed… before the drug cartels could do any worse."

For that, they continued their prowling adventure to chase their particular goal — to dig down deeper and eradicate the threat within the dark side's secret.

Purposely telling, Mirai came here to investigate the underground sewer as Juliette's first trial to gain her experience through Veronica's request to open the truth of the grim side. With her naked body, she used it to persuade the male members with hormonal reactions which served as the trigger of their weaknesses. Like Juliette, who walked naked solely inside the mansion, Veronica bothered nothing with shame; however, she respected the publicity of the majority by avoiding the ruckus around modest society.

Through lapse to lapse, it spent them to crouch and find every piece of essential clues around the place with their flexible, vigilant sense. The redcoats with arms of cutlass and muskets were patrolling around while Mirai and Veronica avoided any commotion to alarm them with the failing outcome of their task. Gladly, the black aura with small reflected light helped them to show where the danger might come from if they stepped on their clear zone.

"Such bizarre changes," Veronica murmured.

As they dig deeper from where they landed, however, dangers weren't merely what they thought from every patrol, but the smell shifted from rubbish-fainted wastes to a sharp whiff of smoke. They covered their noses with a sign that it might ruin their respiration and dysfunction their lungs even they couldn't hear the currents cleared out before it drew the water to its proper flowage. Veronica felt odd about the system as it supposed the sewer to function normally with every canal should properly flow through intersections. Since the depths of the sewer remained with mysterious impact, they must reach farther till the answer as the curiosity piqued around their nose and ears.

Suddenly, a shattering sound came to their ears.

"Wait a sec–," Mirai whispered with her halting arm toward Veronica's body while hearing the glass break; followed by the groaning voices that slightly echoed around their perceiving ears.

"Oh~�� the sounds of pain show the clue. Plus, are they tormenting people?"

"Who knows? Other than these bandits are doing something scary."

While silence responded to their curiosity, both of them proceeded while prowling through every corner to take a peek for themselves. The scorching breeze, however, wafted roughly with shifting sounds from slight groan to vigorous squeal around the underground. It might alarm others nearby, so they instead looked behind for hostile reinforcements, but there were no signs of enemies. After scanning every corner of dangers, they approached the source.

"..."

The scene worsened as the gloom barked with ruined noises from others' mankind. It bullied them to expect what commotion endangered their ears before the eyes awed. Running through an empty path to answer, they sprinted altogether — until they reached something beyond bizarre.

"Wha–"

Looking from top to bottom, every man in red frock coats slowly transfigured into multiple extended, whippy arms and legs with a pattern of small protruding holes beneath, and their eyes enlarged to black teary orbs. Their bloated head resulted in a huge, compacted shape bigger than the rest of their body. Their flesh swelled into a crimson, soft scale with a sloppy crack. Conclusively, they completed their transformation into a man-shaped squid.

As a result, Mirai gasped with her panicked eyes.

"W–Wh–What is going on?! What the hell is this supposed to mean?" Mirai stammered, distancing away for herself. Her convulsive nerves felt heavy — since it was her first time to see a grotesque monster in front of her eyes.

Meanwhile, Veronica normally stood by herself with her crossed-arms beneath her big bust. She ought that there was someone who deliberately triggered this mess up. She felt obvious since it wasn't their ideal plan to break a glass.

"No wonder," Veronica muttered with an exasperated sigh.

As an elf who had strange rumors, she understood a strange phenomenon. She caught herself an aware which something she expected to happen.

"Mirai, have you brought lighter with you?" she asked.

"Oh," Mirai sought within her pocket until it was convenient for Veronica felt relieved. "What is the purpose for?"

"Light it up…. Throw… and see what'll happen."

Mirai nodded as she immediately threw a lighter toward the monster.

Until it reached, a sudden combustion reached their dazzling eyes. At first, it caused from gradual ignition to blowing crimson sparkles which formed a sudden vast flame that overwhelmed the monster with a wailing echo, causing them to cover their ears from distress.

Veronica smirked while knowing the fact that the fire was always their weakness.
