Chapter 41: Don’t Buy This - Yet!
Walking from the forest to the city, then from the market district to the port, and now deep into the West Borough without a single rest, the fatigue finally caught up to me. My whole body was burning out.
On top of that, the sun blazed overhead like it had a personal grudge against me.
I was sweating buckets, and with every step, my body grew stickier and heavier. Not to mention, this body wasn’t in great shape to begin with.
But more importantly, I suddenly realized how badly this had screwed up my brilliant plan of setting up the new ero-massage program!
This was supposed to be perfect. I had the massage skill inherited from the original Aiden’s memory, and with the "Sensual Touch" skill on top of that, I was sure I could bring in plenty of customers and finish the main quest just in time.
But now?
If everyone’s started avoiding my parlor like it’s the plague, how am I supposed to get any customers?
Fuck! Who the hell started spreading this crap?
Could it be the Sadis Gang again? Of course, it had to be their doing again! That would explain everything. News about my capture spread far too fast. And knowing the Sadis Gang specialized in gathering and leaking information, it wasn’t a stretch to think they were behind this too.
Honestly, it was a miracle I’d made it this far at all.
As I wiped the sweat from my forehead, I couldn’t help but miss my old motorbike. Even though in a sense, it was only less than a day old since I last saw it.
How great would it be if I could bring all my stuff from Earth here with me...
