Picking up Girls With My System

The Emperor Eye proved to be valuable when looking for specific individuals. Arthur and his wives traveled throughout the continent, following the aura of the three adventurers Arthur had met before.

“We are getting close,” Arthur said.

pa(nd)a no vel They had traveled across the demon continent, far away from where the Coldharbour castle was. Arthur, who had little knowledge about the layout of the continent, still knew the direction they were heading led to the capital!

That was where the main headquarters of the Adventurers Guild was and where the three girls Arthur met went.

“Aren’t they going there to speak about the killing? The one I caused due to my madness? Hell, I hope this does not give me more problems.” Thought Arthur.

Only after chasing them down for days did Arthur remember where the three girls were heading. Understandable considering the terrible situation he and his wives were in.

“The capital of the demon continent? This is the best place to get more information about the war!” Wisa said.

Honestly, the part about the war turned secondary as Arthur wanted to rescue Sybille and then think about ways to prevent the war.

He was not that worried because of how fast they arrived in the demon continent with the help of the legendary creature, Turquoise. They still had plenty of time to think about that in the future.

“Can we go in like without problems? Or should we sneak in?” Jane asked Arthur as the trio flew in the sky, and the capital was already in sight.

Arthur frowned his eyebrows and then said, “we should sneak in just in case. The vampire family who attacked the Coldharbour castle could be there, watching everyone who enters the city. With the help of magic, they could know our faces, so we better be careful.” He said.

As they got closer to the demon’s continent capital, Rolmuth, they slowed their flying speed and descended to the ground.

The story behind the city’s name was because of its founder, Rolmuth, a powerful demon who once ruled over the continent long ago. He conquered the continent when it barely had cities or villages and built his ideal town where he lived before eventually disappearing from the map.

“How can we sneak in? The walls are tall, protected with magical barriers, and each entrance has guards.”

Wisa and Jane did not know, but Arthur had once sneaked into a place similar to that one, and the answer to all of the security problems was… the sewers!

Arthur took out the sewer door with the unpleasing commentaries of his wives.

“Are we going inside this dirty place? There is not any other way around it?”

“Unfortunately, not. This is the price we have to pay if we want to sneak in without being noticed, thus going to jail, or worse, get the vampires to find us and end our lives.”

Arthur would try it if there were any other way around it, but there was not. Rolmuth was the capital of the continent, and differently from the central continent, in the demon continent, most races disliked each other. Hence, the security in cities was way higher to prevent any damage.

The smell of rotten food, feces, and rats was getting into the nerves of the trio, who wished nothing more than leave that sewer as quickly as possible!

“Look at this dirty water. After this, we need to bathe, the three of us!” Jane said while doing her best not to stomp in any feces along the way.

This time, their sewer strategy went well until the middle part, where a magical barrier made them stop. The city would not let the sewer unprotected; that was obvious.

Still, it was the most accessible place to break in. While the main entrances and the city walls also had magical barriers, there were guards, unlike the sewer, where no one wanted to go.

“Don’t worry about it,” said Arthur, looking at Jane and Wisa, “I can break through this barrier given enough time.”

“Enough time? How long? We need to leave this shitty hole as soon as possible.”

Arthur’s wives wanted to leave, as that place was smelling worse by the second, and even Arthur, who had the endurance to resist such terrible sites, was starting to feel the urge to throw up.

“Not too long, but be ready to pass through the barrier as soon as I break it,” Arthur said.

The magical formation was a blue barrier that blocked anyone who tried to enter without having permission. If destroyed, it would alarm the powerful mages responsible for caring for the city.

Arthur was a master when it came to magical formations, and now with the help of his Emperor Eye — which allowed him to see the mana flow of the barrier — made everything easier.

It took him twenty minutes to create a small hole in the barrier. Big enough for them to pass through but not too big to alarm the mages. “Be ready to pass through it quickly. The passage will only last three seconds not to alarm anyone,” Arthur said.

Wisa and Jane nodded, and when they saw the hand sign of Arthur, the two rushed through the hole, reaching the other side of the barrier.

When the two passed through, Arthur still had one second to do the same, and as he was literally in front of the hole, it was more than enough for him to pass through it too.

“That was close. Now let’s get out of her-” Arthur turned to see his wives, who were already far from him.

“I am sorry, darling, but we cannot handle this shit smell anymore! Quickly follow us!” Wisa said from afar.

They left him there. “Wait for me, or I will punish you two in bed tonight!”

The sewers had many exits, so Arthur and his wives chose one leading to an alley, as anyone sneaking in would do. It was dark, and most of the people in those alleys were thugs and homeless people who did terrible things to live.

It was not an area where guards usually went, only passing there from time to time to make sure it was not a mess.

“I think it is clear,” Arthur said, looking from inside the sewer to see if anyone was around.

He made the sign, and the trio left the sewer. Jane and Wisa wanted to scream joyfully after leaving that shitty hole but did not, as that would attract unnecessary attention.

They first needed a bath, so they left the dark alley and went into the main streets, looking for a place to bathe.

Rolmuth was the capital, so it had way more things and people. It was easy to find stores and vendors on the street that sold anything you could ask for, and one of the main places people went when visiting Rolmuth was their hot springs!

The hot springs were in the upper part of the city, with few houses resembling more of a natural look, like a park. It was like a park in the mountains; to get there, one had to pay a fee at the main gate.

It was their way of ensuring no homeless people went there to live. Money was no problem for Arthur, so he paid the guard, and he and his wives went in.

A bath in a hot spring was a blessing, but there were more things they could do in that place…

“I told you I would punish you,” said Arthur, slapping Jane’s and Wisa’s butts.
