Chapter 954: DROP BEARS?!
As I had my way with Alexa, we pretty much collapsed on the bed while trying to ignore a few wet spots but with some sort of voodoo shit going on, we all woke up with enough time to clean ourselves and prepare this early morning.
It was just a bitch to fit everyone in the same shower—even if Edith and Nancy offered some of us to join them in their room instead, but despite all that, it was a weird bonding moment to wash each other’s back with only a few inches of clearance.
Megan was starting to get irritated because she was getting waterboarded by Quinn’s tits, “Seriously, if the biggest one here joined Edith and Nancy, we would be just fine~”
“Say that to my face again, Megan! Wanna wear my fist with your ass?!”
Alexa cut in, “Guys, stop! Megan’s always cranky in the morning… You’ll get used to it…”
Tatiana chuckled as she basked in the chaos, “Mm-hmm~ Seems like we got another angel over here~”
Kaley rolled her eyes, “Oh, more of those please… Megan can’t be compared to you two but Edith switches up when she’s really into it… Kinda scary, if you ask me… but in a good way.”
I scoffed as I chuckled, “Seriously?”
“What?”
“That’s like— Nevermind…”
“What?! Say it!”
“Fine~ I was about to say that you’re kinda the same but the way Edith switches up is that she gets more dominant… especially towards Nancy… With you, everything just ramps up but it’s different from time to time…”
Kaley nodded pensively, “Oh… That’s spot on, actually…”
Then Quinn cut in while pointing to herself, “What about me? Have you noticed anything in particular?”
Tatiana chuckled from the side, “There she goes~”
And before Quinn could react to what Tatiana said, Megan and Alexa joined in as they both turned to me, “Us too! Tell me something!/ Yeah! W-What do you think?”
I just scratched the side of my cheek as I tried to ignore their soaped-up bodies, “Well~ I don’t have enough… data for the two of you but if we’re talking about Quinn… Even though she’s one of the Alpha-Bitches here, there’s also something different when she gets soft and mushy—”
“HOLD UP! WHEN DID I GET SOFT AND MUSHY, HUH?!”
Megan and Alexa also couldn’t believe their ears, “She gets soft and mushy?/ No way… Just… No…”
Tatiana turned to Kaley with a weird smile, “She doesn’t know herself, huh?”
“Y-Yeah… Unfortunately…”
“NOT YOU TWO, TOO! WHEN DID I GET SOFT AND MUSHY?! SINCE WHEN?!”
“HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!”
In any case, we didn’t give her a definite answer though I’m sure she already knew the answer to that question—but she just didn’t want to admit it herself.
After a few more minutes of banter and messing around, we found ourselves in the dining area served with a breakfast staple of pandesal and coffee though eggs, several slices of meat, and a side of freshly cut vegetables were also present.
And funnily enough, Sebastian was all smiles while he was eating with us but for some reason, I felt like he was planning something arduous for my disciples and/or the rest of the cadets.
Though Sal broke the silence as she addressed Sebastian from the way he was looking at my group:
“What are you planning this time, huh? You do know that almost half of the people who joined us last time had to take a few days off because of what you put them through. You won’t be doing the same thing, right?”
As soon as she said that, the cadets looked a little perturbed but they didn’t try to voice their opinions out.
And Sebastian just let out an embarrassed smile, for some reason, “Ah… That was an honest mistake on my part, madam. I just assumed that since they thought they were better than us ‘mere’ farmers, I thought they could do twice the work we’re doing on a regular basis.”
Sal let out an amused expression, “Haha… I do remember that… That’s a lot of puke, we ran out of buckets… but do take it easy on the kids, alright? They haven’t slighted us in the… you know… slightest… pfft… so at least make them able to walk back for dinner, agreed?”
Sebastian nodded, “Agreed, madam…”
With that said, it didn’t take long before we finished breakfast but since I wanted to know what Sebastian was planning for Isaac and rest, I decided to come with them and as you would obviously know, everyone else came—yep, even Mauro and Elsa who was supposed to be “making” their child.
This time, Sebastian was still wearing and carrying the same gear he had on yesterday but the cadets were now wearing more sensible clothing. And since they didn’t bring their primaries with them, we decided to bring ours for good measure. However, it seemed like I figured out what we were about to do—with the number of axes and other tools Sebastian was handing out—so, the only question was where?
Though it also didn’t take long before I figured that out.
‘Oh, fuck…’
After walking out of the safety of the walls of the estate, we walked onto this dirt path for close to an hour that ended by the foot of the mountain.
Then Sebastian turned around and clasped his hands together with a smile:
“Alright! Today, until 4:00 PM, we’re gonna try and make a clear view—kinda, from this dirt road up to that cabin up in the mountains. Is that clear?”
Ruben raised his hand, “What cabin?”
Sebastian nodded, “Exactly. We used to have a clear path from here to the cabin years and years ago but constant neglect resulted in that—”
“Those are fully grown trees, how old are you—”
“Ah! What great eyes you have, Ruben… In any case, they’re far younger than the ones to the side—though we might have to cut a few that were damaged or just too old—so we could make the overgrowth subside and have more room for other plants to grow.
However, don’t worry as much, if we discover saplings or bushes that could be replanted elsewhere, we will do so… unlike the first batch of crude workers we had…”
Mauro cut in, “Hey! They’re mechanics, they don’t know how shit in here works, alright?!”
Sebastian let out a menacing smile, “I apologize, my lord… But I didn’t think that they’d fumble if I pointed at the trees that should and shouldn’t be cut down… Again, I apologize for that…”
“T-That’s…”
Sebastian waved him off, “In any case… not all of us would be able to cut trees at the same time so some people will be tasked with guarding everyone, foraging for herbs and mushrooms—if you have the talent for it, clearing bushes and the like—you know, to make it easier for everyone, etc. Be wary of Drop Bears though because it seemed like we also have them in this area—”
Hearing that particular term and seeing Sebastian’s smile, I had to play the part, not only would it make everyone else on high alert and make everyone safer, but it would also provide ample entertainment for us in the know, including Kaley, Mauro, Elsa, Edith, and Nancy.
“Woah! Woah! Woah! Sebastian! You have Drop Bears here?! I thought they only have those in Australia?!”
Alexa and Ruben were definitely more anxious than everyone else:
“W-What are D-Drop Bears?!”
“I-I-I haven’t heard of that! W-What are those?!”
Mauro nodded menacingly, “Yeah, that’s kinda Sal’s fault—one of the reasons this place got neglected…”
Elsa continued, “Basically, they’re bears who live atop one of those trees and they attack anyone unsuspectingly and it’s… it’s just a… it’s just an unfortunate thing… Sebastian here was brave enough to hunt them from time to time but I’m afraid that they’ve reproduced and occupied the mountains…”
Alexa asked, “H-How big are they?”
Megan had to cut in though she looked anxious as well, “They’re bears, right?! They should—”
Seb interjected, “I dunno… They should be a little smaller if they can live on top of trees…”
JP nodded, “I agree… Also, Koala’s are also called Koala BEARS, don’t you think—”
James #1 brought them back to the delusion, “No, no… If they got the name DROP Bears, they should be at least between the sizes of a Koala and an actual bear…”
James #2 glanced at everyone else before he said, “So… at least enough weight to bring a normal human down?”
Lucas interjected, “No, no… it should be quite small. Even five pounds is dangerous if it falls high enough…”
Isaac started losing his shit, “Shit! Then the guards should be looking way~ up then?!”
Sebastian then placed his arm over Jose, “Don’t worry, we’ll both take careful watch along with the lords… Just focus on the task at hand.”
“Are you sure?!”
“Yes, we’ll guarantee your safety… Luckily, it seems that your lord has knowledge with them… Coupled with my experience, just think of them as nonexistent…”
As soon as the sighs of relief followed, Kaley had to pinch my sides in order for me to not start laughing.
‘Man… Sebastian’s really gonna work them physically AND mentally… I guess he had to make his own entertainment sometimes…’
