Chapter 786 Fluffy Dana
The kitchen staff retired to their rooms once their workspace had been cleaned up, still feeling off after the encounter with the strange customer earlier in the day.
A good night's sleep sounded like just what they needed to feel normal again, and the rest of the team wasn't far behind them. Though, Karl noticed that Wendy didn't make it to her room, and ended up with Ophelia.
With everyone in their rooms, Karl checked that the door was locked and walked up behind Dana to slide her dress up over her head.
She purred, literally purred, as his hands slid up her sides, then unequipped the dress and turned to face him.
"Really, you're flirting even now?" She asked.
Karl bumped his nose against hers, then licked the rim of her feline ear, which made Dana moan.
"I don't see why not. Besides, you're so soft in this form."
Unfortunately, she also had claws, as Karl realized moments later as they shredded his back.
Collateral damage.
The room was a disaster zone by morning, when Karl woke up on the bed with Dana in his arms and the blankets missing in action.
Dana shifted and locked her legs around him when Karl tried to get up, then purred contentedly as she fell asleep again. While Karl was in a similarly feline form, it seemed that Dana had truly embraced the way of the cat after she had transformed. She even kneaded biscuits with her hands when she was relaxed and sleepy.
Fifteen more minutes wouldn't hurt.
Karl got up and got dressed when he heard Davis come in for the morning. Most of the rest of the group was already at breakfast, but the Appraiser was hard at work getting everything ready for the day.
Karl took a plate from the cooks, and pretended that he couldn't hear the mournful sounds that Caretaker Jo was making upon discovering the disaster that was his room.
Dana looked incredibly embarrassed, and Karl realized that for the first time, she could actually hear all the background noise and low conversations on the second floor. The hearing of her [Beast Form] was much more sensitive than her human body. @@@@
"Ordered by her." The guard motioned for the waiting Overlord to guide them, and Rae noticed the moment that he activated a small green crystal.
A second later, it flashed green again, and he led them into the building.
Rae leaned over to get a better look at it. "Is that a communication crystal? To let you know if she's taking visitors or about to bite someone's head off?"
The Overlord chuckled at the curious Monster Woman. "Indeed. It is linked to one that the servants carry. You just choose which one you want to message, and they will reply with a green or red flash of light. We also use them for guard patrol check in.
You're with the War Champion, right?
What brings a foreign Guild Champion here to Drodh? I see that you've set up a branch house here in the city." It wasn't hard to tell that this was a more official question, something that they had been instructed to find out about if they happened to hear gossip on the topic.
"Politics. The War Champion was advancing too quickly for local leaders, and they were worried that we were going to get ideas about who should really be in charge." Rae replied with a wink.
The Castle Guard laughed. "So they kicked you out and told you to be someone else's problem? I don't suppose that you can tell us what the Matriarch ordered for the Governor, can you?"
Rae frowned. "He's not allowed to know. She says that it's a surprise."
The Guard laughed, which made the nearby servants look at them in shock.
"Oh, I won't tell him, and neither will the servants in this wing. But we do have a running bet on whether Madam Shin will manage to outdo herself this year. She went pretty wild last year, with a full renovation of the Governor's office."
Loros smiled at him, and Rae nodded her permission to share.
{It's a Monarch-Ranked set of traditional armour fully enhanced by a Runecrafter.} She whispered.
{Seriously?} The guard whispered back.
Loros and Rae both nodded, while the guard whistled in appreciation. "This I've got to see. Don't mind the intrusion. Assuming they let me in."
Then he stopped at a door and politely knocked.
"Ah, my delivery. I got word that it was on the way. Please do bring them in." Madam Shin called from the other side, but the Guard didn't open the door, he waited for the maid inside to open it.
