Chapter 12 12: My Target Is Here [Pt1]
"My, what a jackpot I hit today. To think I would get to meet the grandmaster and serve him. I am so happy today. Don't you feel the same, grandmaster?"
'Is this a dream? Or perhaps a nightmare? What is going on here? When did I fall asleep?'
Keith tried to pinch himself awake as soon as he saw the beautiful dancer standing in the doorway to his room. He wanted nothing more than to confirm that he was dreaming.
Even as the dancer walked inside the room with her deliberate footsteps, Keith wanted nothing more than to push her away and run outside. Her eyes did not sit right with him.
"Y-You. How dare you come in here like this? You know who I am but you still dare come in here?"
Keith tried to make his voice sound as cold as he could. Thankfully, his new body and voice came out as cold all on their own. He did not even have to try too hard to appear as someone uninterested.
But despite his words, Keith could feel his eyes moving toward the huge breasts the dancer had. It did not help that they were barely covered by the thin piece of cloth the woman was wearing.
"I know who you are grandmaster. But I can see your eyes on me and I know you are interested in me as well. So won't you give me a chance to keep you company tonight? I promise to serve you well."
The dancer was all but in Keith's lap by the time he realized what happened. Her body was pressed up against Keith's and he instantly jerked back.
He could not help it as his body moved all on its own. He had not expected someone to touch him out of the blue and his body made sure to remove the touch.
The dancer looked stunned at what happened. Disbelief colored her eyes as she tried to gather her fallen self.
"I told you to behave yourself, did I not? Now, leave if you do not have anything else to do for me."
Keith's heart hammered inside his chest as he looked at the female dancer in front of him. He was not ready to have anything to do with her.
The more he tried to avoid the dancer, the more his mind reminded Keith that this was a world of an 'Ero' game and these kinds of scenes were to be expected from its characters.
"I am sorry grandmaster, it was a mistake. I am the servant assigned to your room. If you would like something then do let me know. I will make sure to provide you with 'quality' service."
Keith was sure he was not imagining the suggestive tone of this dancer. There was something about her that bugged him but Keith could not pinpoint what it was. He wanted this dancer gone from his room before something worse happened.
"Ah, if you want something to eat. Go and get me something that can fill my stomach."
It was not until Keith had said these words did he realize that he was really hungry. He wanted to eat something spicy and nice but his food back at the guild was mostly bland. This was the only time he would get to taste the local delicacies of this place.
So even if Keith felt a little alarmed by the dancer and her bold actions at first, he decided to forgive her for the time being. He could almost pretend that nothing happened if he tried hard enough.
Once again, the dancer looked surprised at what happened and the request she had gotten. But her confused expression slipped into a determined one and she bowed down to the grandmaster.
"Of course grandmaster. I will go and bring you the best food available in our establishment."
Keith watched the woman head out and he debated whether he should call for someone to accompany him during his dinner. But the only one available was Master Fushi. Even Clove, the one acting as his slave, had been taken out into the fields as a supervisor.
'Nah, I better not risk it. What if Master Fushi realizes my true identity and decides to kill me?'
Keith's mind was flowing in overdrive but he finally managed to calm himself down.
////////////////////////////////////////////
'This is bad. This situation is really bad.'
The dancer who had ventured inside the Grandmaster's room was named Sophia. She was an elite of her clan and she had been assigned to take care of the grandmaster.
It should have been easy for her because of her charms. No man had ever been able to say no to Sophia before so she had been confident in her charms this time as well.
But contrary to her beliefs, not only had she been turned away but she had also managed to embarrass herself. The grandmaster was either oblivious to all her charms, or he had too much self-control to resist her.
"Fuck it. Is that guy even a man? How could he appear to calm even after seeing me throw myself all over him like this? Truly, that man deserved the title of 'grandmaster'."
For the first time in her life, Sophia had seen someone who had been able to resist her charms. She had thought that the grandmaster had been staring at her when she had seen him in the morning.
But he had been staring at her comrade behind her. And it was also because of him that the other skinner demons had gotten caught.
"This man, he is not normal. I better go and tell our leader that the grandmaster is not a fraud like we thought him to be. We might be in trouble if we are not careful."
Sophia was certain that the demons would be able to prevail in the end and take over the world. It was what all the scriptures said so it had to be the truth.
But still, the grandmaster would be a troublesome thorn in their side and they had to take care of him before he eradicated everyone.
Sophia opened the back door of the store where two pairs of terrified eyes looked up at her. It belonged to the two human servants of this establishment who would become the skinner demon's next target.
"Ah, there is no need for you two to look so scared. You two should be honored to house the next generation of our kin. Soon, you both will become demons as well."
The two humans looked terrified of her words but Sophia did not care much for them. She had other things to do, like report her findings to her superior.
"Lady Natasha, I checked the Grandmaster out. It seems like he is the real deal but our power is too little for him to notice us for now. What should we do about him?"
Lady Natasha was the noblest skinner in their clan. She was their queen and also someone who they could count on.
"I see. So it seems like our information about the grandmaster was faulty. No matter, we will still win this small war. Perhaps it's time for me to go out and pay this 'grandmaster' a visit myself."
Sophia wanted to ask their queen not to take such a big risk. But truly, their queen was the only one who would be able to do anything about the grandmaster at this rate.
More and more of the skinner demons were being killed by the guild and the only one who could stop it all was the grandmaster.
"Sophia, give your skin to me now. I want to see the grandmaster for myself. I wonder if he will realize we changed skins with each other."
Sophia was doubtful about this plan but she had no other option but to agree with her queen's suggestion.
"Of course my queen."
With that, the queen and Sophia exchanged places. The kitchen was ready with food to take but the queen had other ideas.
"Hey, the food is ready-who are you and how did you-?"
The kitchen staff never finished questioning queen Natasha because she ended up killing them before they could finish speaking.
It was regretful since it was a waste of useful human skin but the queen had no other choice but to waste alive human skin to get rid of the grandmaster.
She also needed to tamper with the food in a way to make it seem normal. It would cause the grandmaster's sexual desire to be heightened and then the queen would make her move.
Truly, there was no better skin than the grandmaster full of vital life energy. He would become the ultimate card for the skinner demons to thrive.
And all the queen would have to do was to bed him once and insert her energy into his body. It was all going to be rather easy since no human was able to resist her and her charms.
