Chapter 587 Chapter 586: Dastardly Plot (1)

"-is exactly what made her so appealing! Though, looking back at it, perhaps that was exactly why she wasn't the best leader for us all..."

A sigh escaped my lips as I lifted the teacup again, sipping on the more sedated, comforting taste of green tea before taking a bite of the fluffy yellow cake that was on the plate in front of us, trying my best to not roll my eyes as Bessie continued to speak.

"Her charisma and strength made her a natural leader to us all! So easy to talk to, so easy to get along with, and so strong and dashing..."

Bessie let out a sigh as well, leaning her head back down on my chest as she snuggled into my arm, the Cowkin sipping on the hot chocolate that she had ordered and feeling right at home as she continued to yap and yap...

Admittedly, it made the hour pass by rather quickly as she kept telling me about everything that happened, the Cowkin using this time to unload everything off her rather abundant chest and clean off her plate as she tried to ingratiate herself with me.

The hour had gone by, sure, but we had also had a lack of any sightings regarding this group of Nobles who had dared to desire something that my Mistress owned, making my anger slowly come to a boil beneath the surface as we continued to sit there, waiting.

The waitress was beginning to get a tad obvious with wanting to get us out of here to free up the table and earn her tip, so I pulled out the pocket watch I kept on me and took a look at the time, calculating how much longer we could feasibly stay in here without getting someone too annoyed and becoming too obvious.

"Five more minutes, Bessie, before we get up and return home. Finish your drinks and sweets now, dear."

My voice was soft as I remained in 'character' beside the Cowkin, taking another sip of my green tea and swirling around the remaining few mouthfuls that were inside the porcelain cup, my mind drifting towards the gains from the excursion down in the Caverns.

[763,086 Xp gained; would you like a summary?]

'Yes, but simplify it to the 'Monsters + Quests' and 'Mortals' please.'

[Calculating...]

[Monsters + Quests: 633,284 Xp gained, 196 Sp gained]

[Mortals: 129,802 Xp gained]

That pushed me up towards 1.5 million total experience, meaning I had 500,000 experience left before I leveled up to 50, which placed me at the next Class Unlock for my System and opened up a myriad of ways to get stronger... I think.

Besides that, the total of my Shop Points was getting high as well, so I needed to plan out the next round of 'gifts' that Reincantra would be kind enough to bestow upon me and my lovers, and maybe they could be on the 'stronger' side of buffs?

Or I could just get a few more things that are smaller buffs that stack up, improving everything we had all at once?

Then there were the herbs and materials in the store that were available for purchase, so I could certainly make use of those for Leone and Anput respectively, especially if they were rarer materials for them to make something awesome for one of us to use..?

That would be incredible; a specialized metal that is attuned with Ice and empowers all of my magics with Ice whenever I use it..?

Or perhaps a potion that increases how much Mana you absorb and can put out, increasing the damage of your magics by a large amount?

The possibilities were endless, honestly, and I was looking forwards to browsing the store again soon and viewing all the goodies inside of it.

Tapping my fingers against the table, I took the last sip of my green tea before filling the cup up with a little bit of water, which I used to wash away anything on my teeth and refresh my palate before letting out a sigh, glancing at Bessie as she scarfed down the cake in front of her.

Did all of the weight go to her breasts and butt..?

She ate SO much during this 'date' of ours, and she even drank quite a few heavier, sugary drinks on top of that... so where did it all go?

She didn't really fight either, so..?

Though, that thought made me realize that in this entire life, I had only ever been on a single actual date, and even then it had been spent being toyed with as my Demoness purchased that toy from the Succubus to use on me...

Was that a date I wanted again..?

I idly allowed my thoughts to continue drifting as I kept an eye on the surrounding teashop, before eventually closing the pocket watch and storing it away, saying "When your done we'll get going..."

Bessie nodded, her large amber eyes clearer than before as she remained snuggled against me, nibbling on a cookie now that she dipped into the milk she ordered.

While she did that, I sorted through my coins and began to count them out, only to freeze for a moment as I watched three hooded figures enter the building, their black cloaks sticking out like a sore thumb.

Getting my payment ready, I saw them look around for a few seconds before talking to a waitress, who nodded before scurrying away, her lips pulled into a worried frown as she went to do what they asked.

Bessie tugged on my sleeve, and I nodded and smiled at her, saying "Are you done, dear? We should get going soon..."

From the corner of my eye, I saw the hooded figures waiting by the door before accepting the parcel that the waitress handed over, only for her to gasp quietly as they dropped a few coins into her hand, the distinctive glint of gold rather obvious.

They turned and left the shop, and I got up and began to follow them, waving down our waitress and handing her a few silvers before exiting the shop behind them, beginning to follow them as closely as I could.
