Chapter 65: First Mission (1)
One day passed after the battles in the training grounds.
Hunter and his team's fame slightly rose because aspiring news reporters used their fights for their articles, telling the First Union that the man from the latest yearly exam continued his winning streak with strength no newbie could contest.
Which quickly lost a little of its credibility as it was mentioned that no experienced hunters from guilds had decided to clash with him.
That would have been surely a spar many wanted to know the results of.
"Don't be so mad at me!"
"Comb! My! Hair!"
"Gotta learn combing long hairs anyway!"
"Do it well!"
On the other hand, the center of the new news was back in the house, with a comb in his hand going up and down Aimee's knitted streaks, doing his best to fix her hair. In some cases, however, being gentle was impossible, and Hunter had to roughly mend the cause of his affection.
And that often ended with Aimee's glare going up the mirror to look at his face.
At that time, the door to their apartment opened, ushering in their crimson-haired teammate. Seraphina returned from the work Hunter had assigned to her!
The work he wanted to personally do as the leader of this team, yet he couldn't as his girlfriend pinned him down before the mirror with her gaze.
Seraphina faintly smiled at them and said, "I met with the merchant. She'll give us a lift to our first mission's rendezvous spot. But was there a need to meet her in person?"
"Yes!" Hunter exclaimed while rubbing Aimee's weaved streak, "We're going to the popular mission spot, with many newbies and experienced hunters there. We aren't the only ones who want to quickly get there, too. Many fledglings must have already contacted the merchant as she's about to leave the union! To enhance our chances of being the ones she wants to pick up, it's better to meet her in person and speak face-to-face about it! Not through the tablet like everyone else does!"
Aimee needled her boyfriend even while understanding him, "Surely you didn't just want to have a nice talk with a beautiful and mature woman?"
"I have you two already!" Hunter growled, "And cut it out already! I'm doing my best here!"
"You can do better," Aimee harrumphed before closing her eyes.
Hunter whispered, "Says someone enjoying all cuddles and making out…"
"That's why you must learn how to comb knitted hair well… so we can repeat that, idiot…"
"If you want to repeat that, you can comb it yourself?"
"Dare to repeat that?"
"Of course I dare. Comb your hair yourself!"
"Come back here, Hunter!"
"Enough of combing experience for today! Finish the rest yourself!"
"Bastard! Don't come to my room tonight!"
"Fine! I have three other pussies to play with!"
Aimee gasped before clenching the comb and finishing the rest herself.
She appeared so mad that even Seraphina ran to her room.
-
At last, it was time to set off on the first mission.
With everything prepared and safely stuffed in pouches fastened to the waists of Hunter's beautiful teammates, the party of three closed the door to their apartment and left the block knitted in their equipment.
"Your packing skill is so convenient, Seraphina," Aimee commented on Seraphina's skill, which she had used before to shrink the hulking brown lizard's armor to later sell to the union. "And so easy to learn, too! Thank you for sharing it with me! At least I can learn it in our party… unlike someone else!"
Feeling the teasing and haughty smile of an irked girlfriend, Hunter snorted. Of course, he couldn't learn skills or rewrite them, as the basic foundation of the skill books was mana!
And the rest was secret!
A secret he couldn't delve into because he didn't have time. For the same reason, he didn't have a chance to learn movement skills or awaken the Agility Origin! He tried touching that… but it was as though Hunter couldn't really awaken it because he was a man… whose forte should be high strength, not speed!
'I didn't have a chance to learn whether my leather armor has special uses, too… it was so easy to learn about the black leather gloves because it was a present from the guild leader who had studied them! Well, at least she has people to study items for… I wonder if there's a spirit knowledgeable about items I can make contact with… how should I find Nakisha and Brandi's sisters, even?'
As an idea slowly blossomed in his mind, Hunter and his team could already see the rendezvous spot on the horizon, with five carriages lining up and preparing to leave. Many shirtless men in short leather pants were hauling wooden boxes of various stuff, packing them inside the carriages.
Making rounds around them, and her transport was no one other than the merchant Seraphina had talked with.
Her choice of clothes and fashion was pleasant for Hunter, for she wore knee-high boots, short leather pants, a checkered shirt tied up to her chest, exposing her stomach, and a long hat.
In a nutshell, she revealed a lot about herself. There was always something that drew Hunter's attention, be it her front or back…
She turned around, finding Hunter staring at her, "It's really you, Hunter! The highlight of this year's yearly exam! Haha! I really am happy that you've contacted me, using a woman at that. Atta boy, already growing up to be the man of the old times!"
As the merchant ran toward him with her chest jiggling up and down, Hunter felt obliged to not waste her energy and remained taking in the entire vista of her running toward him before she pulled him into a tight embrace, stuffing his face in her sheathed melons that were still so soft despite fabric.
"Before you grow into a man you declared to be in the yearly exam, how about you let this big sister have a bite of you? I love younger men… and you're so strong with an unlimited stamina, right?"
Hunter chuckled in her tits, "And I do love older women… but I'm the leader of this party and must adhere to the rules, you see. Work first, play later. If fate connects us again, I'll invite you for a drink, Miss."
A polite refusal from Hunter's side surprised Seraphina but not Aimee!
As she looked at the men working for the merchant, she inferred that a lot of them had given a bite of themselves to her. Perhaps she was reading too much into the scene, but the fact that all of them were younger than the merchant suggested that she was right.
Which meant Hunter probably thought the same.
And with so many newbie hunters throwing themselves before him, how could a mere merchant even have a chance to gobble Hunter's first time?
Oblivious to those thoughts, the merchant sighed, "Sounds like you've changed already. I guess you're eager to build your fame in the union to eat women better than me! Haha! At least I have a higher chance than other nobodies. Okay, then! Board the fifth carriage and leave the rest to me!"
