Chapter 21
----------------------------------------
As the daybreak approached, the village started to become noisy, as everyone were scrambling to start their livelihood activities.
When Adrian woke up, he sat up in a daze for a while, before he remembered what happened yesterday.
[The Stalker, The Goons, The ugly prostitutes, The crazy little girl, The ugly villagers... hah, too much bad stuff to remember.]
[Well, not like I can do anything about them. Better forget it all & forge ahead! It's a new day & the time for new opportunities to arrive! As long as I keep trying, the pussy palace would become a reality!]
Adrian remembered the dream of his previous lifetime.
He wanted to die as an old man under his own terms.
He had imagined that he would set up a deed so that hundreds of girls can fuck him one after another. The one that would become his final sex partner would inherit everything that belonged to him.
He wanted to die on a women's stomach, but he died too early for that to happen.
Adrian resolved himself as he pumped his fist,
[In this lifetime, I would amass so much wealth that my pussy palace dream would come true! I will definitely succeed!!]
Adrian's shout reverberated throughout the Inn and the sweeper outside ran away in fright! She didn't want to hang around crazies so early in the morning.
---------------------------------------
When Drone woke up, he felt a splitting headache and his stomach roared. He quickly rushed to the toilet before any mis-happenings.
After returning, he found Ella sleeping in a corner of their room.
Fearing that she might have caught a cold, he tried to quietly move her to the bed.
Ella suddenly opened her eyes wide as she tried to struggle and escape her assaulter.
[No!! Please! Leave me alloooone!!]
Drone panicked, but quickly put her on the bed and tried to talk to her,
[Ella! It's me Drone. What happened? Did you see a bad dream?]
Ella soon realized that it was her husband Drone & she quickly hugged him as she started to cry silently.
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
Drone became perplexed. He wanted to know what happened, but he decided to calm her down first.
[Shh. It's okay now. It's all okay.]
He patted her hair as he tried to calm her down.
Muffled crying sounds filled the once silent room.
-------------------------------------------
Adrian tried knocking on Drone's door but got no response.
Thinking that they might still be asleep, Adrian decided to visit the village market, in case he found something useful.
The sun was shining brightly as it's rays cast a glow on Adrian's figure as he walked along the streets.
He bought a few leather items but kept his old armor equipped.
(...Our guild's equipment are far better than these, oh well, let's get some dry food stuff...)
Adrian shopped until the bag he was carrying became completely filled.
When he was returning back to the Inn, he chanced upon a crowd of spectators shouting loudly while cheering someone on inside their encirclement.
He was planning on passing by them, when he happened to glance upon someone.
A lady, dressed in a heavy cloak had fallen inside the crowd's encirclement, while the spectator's cheered on the abuser.
It wasn't the social injustice that tugged his heart. But the lady's beautiful face that charmed Adrian instantly.
[Holy Shit! Jackpot baby!! Finally a beauty in sight! Comrade Adrian to the rescue!]
Adrian hurried to get inside the encirclement and quickly punched the abuser straight on his chin.
The man had a frail body, and couldn't take such a blow at all. His body crashed on the side of the street.
Adrian then quickly approached the lady and held her up, while asking,
[Miss, are you hurt somewhere? You don't look good! Let's see a doctor immediately!!]
Adrian then tried to drag the lady away with him, while the woman resisted and replied,
[Let go. I am fine.. Please, don't concern yourself with me!]
Adrian became surprised upon being rejected like this.
He tried to control his raging anger & enquired,
[Why? Is that person blackmailing you?]
[No..]
Without letting the lady continue, Adrian grabbed the fallen man & started to rain down punches on his face.
[Bastard!! How dare you hurt a noble & beautiful lady like that!! Do you know how long I waited... I mean! How much I was holding myself back!! But, you crossed all limits!]
Adrian blabbered on whatever bullshit he could spew to win the lady's favor.
Quickly, the assaulted male's face became so bruised that it swelled up and had several purple lumps.
[Hah! That should teach you to mess with me! Now scram!]
A few men came through the crowd and shouted wildly as they lifted the injured man.
[Kurian?!]
[What happened?!]
[Who did this?!]
Adrian proudly raised his head up and scolded,
[I, your father, disciplined this unfilial child. Now take him out of my sight! Or else...]
The men knew that this guy was just courting death & hence walked away after memorizing his body structure & voice.
Adrian turned to the lady and held her carefully within his arms.
[You are safe now. Don't worry, I'll protect you!!]
The lady squirmed out of his embrace & asked a question while looking down,
[Did.. you just call me.. beautiful?]
Adrian nodded strongly & replied,
[Of course! You are the most beautiful lady I have seen so far.]
*SLAAPP*
The woman lifted her face & fiercely slapped Adrian,
Adrian's mask fell off, as he looked at the woman in confusion,
(...did this woman go crazy?! Why did she hit me?!...)
With tears falling from her eyes, the woman angrily shouted,
[I know I am ugly!! I am not beautiful at all! How dare you.. How dare you make fun of me!! Is it so funny?! HAH?!]
Suppressing her outburst, the lady quickly picked up her fallen mask & retreated away from the crowd.
Adrian looked on as his confusion reached new heights.
[What ugly? She's HOT! AHH!! What's wrong with this world?!]
