After Rodrick's departure, Cristel finished showing them the Under Guild, and then they headed off to other shops where Cristel used to get her weapons and potion-making items. Before 7 p.m., the three of them left the Under Realm, as Cristel said the streets were filled with all sorts of unwanted people. The three of them exited through the same mirror they entered and greeted Old Dan and Roger, who seemed a little anxious for some reason.
"Something wrong, Roger?" Finn asked while Cristel was talking to Old Dan, giving him an errand.
"Uh... no, I'm just a little anxious," Roger replied, scratching his head.
"Why? Did you get into trouble?" Darwin asked.
"No, in fact, it's quite the opposite. Tomorrow they'll announce a new prototype I created, and I don't know how the adventurers will react" Roger confessed nervously.
"Oh, is that so. Calm down. I'm sure everyone will like it. We've seen several of your creations, and they're amazing" Darwin said, patting him on the back.
"Sigh, I hope so. I've worked hard on this project, and I truly believe it will be very useful in the future" Roger said.
"Then there's nothing to worry about. I'm sure it will turn out well" Finn affirmed, watching Cristel approach them.
"Come on, I've already finished placing my order" Cristel said, and the two said goodbye to Roger.
The three left the Alchemy shop and went down to the central floor of the shopping area.
"Well, I'll say goodbye for today, sweethearts. By the way, you should all be at the guild hall early tomorrow. The vice-master will make an important announcement" Cristel reminded them, before heading home.
"How long do you think it will take us to complete our next mission?" Darwin asked, watching Cristel walk away.
"Sigh… The last one took us over a month to officially complete" Finn said, starting to walk home and being followed by Darwin. "So, maybe a month again?"
"I hope it's only a month… I don't like shitting in the forest" Darwin confessed.
"Me neither… I hope I don't run into any other dangerous creatures. I don't want to end up like those adventurers we saw at the Under Guild" Finn said, touching the right side of his face.
"Yeah, me neither. By the way, that reminds me…" Darwin said, starting to look around cautiously. "The people who enslave monsters to sleep with them live among us, acting like normal people…"
"Just like the people who write on bathroom walls with their own shit, they hide among us too" Finn stated, also cautiously.

The next day, Finn woke up at 5 a.m. and quickly got ready to leave for the guild before 6 a.m. Finn left the small building where he lived, seeing Darwin sitting on a bench across the street, waiting for him.
"Are you still practicing fire magic?" Darwin asked, looking at the book Finn was holding. It was a book on how to use fire magic.
"Yeah, but how the hell do you know where I live?" Finn asked, not caring about Darwin's question.
"Amelia told me your address the other day" Darwin replied, shrugging.
"Isn't that giving away private information?" Finn wondered.
"Well, let's hurry. We don't want to be late for the vice-master's announcement. It starts at 8" Darwin said, standing up.
The two walked a few steps and then headed to the first level of the capital. Finn lived on the third level of the capital, which was about nine stories high. Then they boarded the bus that took them to the Freewalker Guild. Upon entering the guild doors, Finn could see a large number of adventurers gathered on all floors of the guild, revealing for the first time just how many members the guild had.
"Now it'll be a problem finding a seat..." Darwin said, seeing all the tables on the first floor occupied.
"It's normal. All the adventurers were supposed to gather today, if I'm not mistaken" Finn replied.
But then a hand, followed by a shout, greeted them from a corner of the guild. It was Cristel, who had been waiting for them for a while. Amelia sat next to Cristel, her typical bored expression on her face. Finn and Darwin didn't hesitate and went to sit next to them.
"I see you did arrive early after all!" Cristel greeted.
"You said it was an important announcement, so we couldn't miss it" Finn replied.
"And especially you two who will be leaving on a mission soon," Amelia stated, remembering the mission that Cristel had taken her yesterday, informing her that Finn and Darwin will be carrying it out.
"Ugh, that's true. Are we supposed to only be doing missions like this now?" Darwin asked "I don't like sleeping in the woods..."
"HA, you don't know how fortunate you are to be able to receive quests appropriate for your occupation" Amelia replied, while Cristel nodded beside her.
'The thing is, we didn't choose this occupation by choice...' Finn thought resentfully.
"That's right. Since you're the only explorers in this guild, you'll never run out of quests, nor will you have to fight with other adventurers over one. For the rest of us adventurers, it's a big problem finding a quest appropriate for our occupation. Most of the time, that leaves us with no choice but to accept quests imposed by the citizens of the capital or typical quests around the capital" Cristel stated, somewhat disappointed.
"And that's not better? how difficult the citizen missions could be?" Darwin asked, remembering the missions he had done before, causing Cristel and Amelia to grimace.
"Not difficult… But weird" Amelia said, remembering when she used to do missions.
"Wait, you used to be an adventurer too?" Finn asked, surprised.
"Yes. Two years ago, I was a C-class adventurer, but then I retired due to some problems…" Amelia confirmed.
'No wonder she's so strong!' Finn thought.
"This got me curious. What are the most dangerous or weird missions you've ever done?" Darwin asked.
This question left Cristel and Amelia thoughtful, as they had been in the guild since they were just 12 years old and had completed several missions in that time. Darwin had been in the guild for almost a year, while Finn, despite having been in the guild since he was 13, hadn't had any awareness of it until a few months ago.
"Well, the most dangerous mission I ever completed was, I think, exterminating an ogre base west of here, when I had barely become a Class B adventurer" Cristel replied, remembering how badly she'd had it at that base. "On that mission, I broke my arm and five ribs due to carelessness on my part. As for the weird mission, it was definitely that mission just a week before one of my birthdays. I had just come of age when a duke sent me a letter hiring me personally and exported me to his house, his twin children, a youngman and a youngwoman a little younger than me, for some reason they fantasized about me sleeping naked with them, so the duke offered me 50,000 gold to sleep with them. Without a doubt the easiest 50,000 of my life, although for some reason I woke up with a wet ass and a strange taste in my mouth ... But if what you were wondering is about the most challenging mission I've ever had, it was undoubtedly the mission 2 years ago. The ogre mission was the most dangerous because if I failed, an entire village would be wiped out by the ogres, but the mission of the current duchess of the east was the most challenging without a doubt.
'Wait, a gold is around 10 dollars, so that means they paid Cristel 500,000 dollars?!' Finn thought, amazed.
"Mhh, I do remember when you went on that mission, although you never told me what happened, you just told me it was tough," Amelia said.
"And it was. At that time, the Duchess wasn't even a duchess, and she was only a year older than me. As a birthday present, her father told her she could ask for anything for making great progress in caring for his lands: a house, slaves, servants, whatever she wanted. But the devilish girl wanted to post a mission, and the house would be hers once the mission was accepted. Dina Valyon is ruthless" Cristel affirmed.
"Dina Valyon, I've heard so many things about her. Tell me, the rumors about her, are they all true?" Amelia asked.
"Absolutely. I was her first victim. Dina sent that mission specifically for me. It was a challenge, me against her, in her house, alone together. At the time, I thought it was a fight, you know, to see who has the biggest ovaries" Cristel said, drawing a laugh from Finn.
'Ha, synonym for: who has the biggest balls, but in a female version' Finn thought, amused.
"As soon as I arrived at her lands, Dina's parents left as promised, and Dina took out a magic scroll, a magical pact. The rules of the pact were simple: neither participant could back out once the pact was signed; the two would have to face each other until sunrise the next day. Finally, the rules of the fight would be established by Dina Valyon, the challenger, right after confirming the pact. They were very simple and fair rules from my point of view at the time, and the fact that she was carrying a sword at her waist didn't help at all, so I signed without a second thought" Cristel leaned across the table and focused her gaze on the center of the table as she remembered what had happened.
"I see… Dina challenged you on the condition that you wouldn't use magic, weapons, or your arms, right?" Darwin asked seriously, but Cristel denied it flatly.
"No… we didn't fight at all" Cristel stated, leaving Finn and Darwin confused, but Amelia simply sighed, knowing full well what Cristel meant. "Dina took me to her room and fucked my ass all night with her huge dildo. The rules of the fight weren't a fair fight, but rather me having to endure all kinds of perversions for almost 9 hours. Just as the magical pact stipulated, we started at 8 p.m. and finished at 5 a.m., right when the sun came up."
"What?" Finn asked again 'This wasn't in the novel. Is this common here?' Finn thought.
Finn remembered reading about various risqué content in the various novels, including the time Cristel captured the horse-woman, was kidnapped by the Night King, and other events. He had even read the author's note explaining that these themes were normal in this world, but he had never seen this as common in the novel as he had seen it here since he came to this world.
"Sigh, Dina Valyon is the current duchess of the barren lands of the east. Her reputation has spread among the kingdom's adventurers, as it is said that Dina loves to fuck the adventurers' asses. Many say it's some kind of mental problem she developed when she couldn't become an adventurer. They say she does that as a way to relieve her envy, because it makes her feel superior or something like that..." Amelia answered, revealing all the information she knew about Dina. "Until today, I only thought they were rumors from people who hated her or something like that, but if Cristel says she experienced it herself, then I have no choice but to believe that everything said about her is true."
"That's right, Dina may be one of the best duchesses in the kingdom, the best of the four dukes in fact, but that doesn't discart she's a crazy woman who loves to rape adventurers" Cristel affirmed. "But anyway, let's stop talking about me. It's your turn, Amelia. I'm sure the boys will love to hear about your adventures" Cristel said, ignoring the topic as if it were completely normal.
Amelia simply sighed and rolled her eyes, recalling several of the missions she had done in the past.
"Most dangerous mission first, right?... Well, I think that would definitely be the mission to the tavern in New Bridge, a small port city on the shores of the Firorn Kingdom. I was on a mission to hunt down some renegade adventurers when I was ambushed by five C-class renegades, and I barely made it out alive. As for the strangest mission, well, that would be the mission to infiltrate the modeling magazines" Amelia said, recalling the mission, while Cristel nods in confirmation.
"Yes, I remember that mission. You got the worst of it, or maybe the best, depending on how you look at it" Cristel said. "It was one of the few missions we did together."
"Sigh, how I wish I had never done that mission. That day I had to pose with and without clothes, seduce several men and women, let an old woman suck my ass for half an hour, and all for what? Only to find out that the infiltrator in the kingdom had died in a brothel from too much drug use" Amelia said, slightly annoyed.
"Hahaha, they were definitely great moments" Cristel laughed.
'What?…' Finn thought, imagining such a situation.
"So you see why it's better to avoid normal missions?" Amelia asked.
"But if it's the good life, what the heck is she talking about?" Darwin wondered, wanting to have missions like those.
"And are all the missions regularly the same? You know, eccentric?" Finn asked, not knowing what to think about those missions.
Cristel, noticing Finn's face, simply smiled and hugged him.
"Over the years, we've received a large number of all kinds of missions in the city and even outside of it. I've danced almost naked on runways and in brothels, I've had nude portraits painted in the museum of adventurers, if you want to look a them, I've milked a large number of monsters for Old Dan's projects, I've even worked as a stripper at various young men's birthday parties" Cristel said matter-of-factly.
"Just like I did when I was an adventurer. I've modeled, I've received many proposals from Mytt wanting to mate with me so they could enter the capital, and I've even had to ride several monsters to fulfill the fetishes of several clients" Amelia confessed, surprising Finn. "Even Darwin has received several missions from different women, but he rejects them all immediately. That's why he doesn't know much about the capital's missions. He was always gathering ingredients before you two teamed up."
"Tch, I'd rather cut off my balls than sleep with a human" Darwin stated seriously, clearly showing contempt for the idea.
"The thing is, these missions are completely normal, and someday you'll have to do them too. In fact, you've already received several requests for that type of work, but due to your previous condition, the master ordered me to automatically reject all of them" Amelia confessed.
Seeing Finn's disbelief, Cristel ruffled his hair, trying to get him out of his thoughts.
"I've really received those kinds of missions?" Finn asked incredulously.
Amelia sighed and pressed the golden card into her silver bracelet. A screen slightly different from the adventurers' appeared, showing two windows, one with Finn's name and the other with Darwin's. The screen displayed the different quests each had completed and the quests they could complete.
"It's good you asked... look, this one arrived yesterday" Amelia said, showing a quest.
[Personal quest: non-class
Sally, a young farmer from the east of the capital, requests an intimate encounter with Finn, with the goal of having a baby capable of being adventurers or using magic.]
'What, just like that?' Finn thought, looking at the quest.
"Many quests of this type come to adventurers, since many people wish to have offspring capable of becoming adventurers" Cristel clarified, opening her screen where her quests were displayed.
[Personal Quest: No Class
Some C-class adventurers from the Animalia Kingdom, Mytt-Horse, have been having trouble conceiving offspring. The two request Cristel's help so she can give birth to the adventurers' children.]
"What? The mytt also ask for these kinds of quests?!" Darwin asked hopefully.
"If you're strong enough, yes. The mytt desire relationships with humans, especially those who are strong. I've received all kinds of quests, from conceiving children to simply satisfying their fetishes" Cristel clarified, surprising Finn.
"And have you accepted any?" Finn asked.
"I've never accepted quests to give birth. Just as they have their desires for children, I have mine too" Cristel clarified, causing Finn to nod. "Although I have accepted some quests to sleep with some mytt."
"So you have a problem with those things, huh?" Darwin asked, nodding his head as if he'd finally understood something important. "No wonder you didn't accept that centaur's invitation, but don't worry, I'm here to guide you along that beautiful path."
"This may be difficult for you to adapt to, and you still have a lot to learn about the world, but don't worry. I know you'll succeed" Amelia said, supporting him.
'The thing is, I don't know if I want to adapt to this world' Finn thought.
'I can't allow someone with great potential to be one of the best adventurers in this guild to be overwhelmed by this kind of unimportant thing. I'll have to teach him how to survive in this world myself!' Cristel thought with great determination. 'Besides, if I can bring out Finn and Darwin's potentials, they'll undoubtedly be able to become my teammates so we can one day march to the Void lands on the other side of the world!'
"You know, it's weird. Many adventurers would enjoy receiving these kinds of quests, but you seem uncomfortable" Amelia said.
"Yeah… Maybe it's because I'm not used to this kind of thing…" Finn said. "Besides, I've never done that kind of things, you know?"
"Oh…" Amelia said, thinking about what to do or say next, but after a few seconds, she smiled with renewed resolve. "But you've done it, you just don't remember" Amelia said.
"I've done it!?" Finn asked again. "Impossible… like, when!?" 'Did I lose my first time and I don't even know who it was with!?' Finn thought incredulously.
"Of course, I've squeezed your balls dry so many times that I can't even remember when we started…" Amelia stated, winking at him, leaving Finn stunned. "If you want to try it now that you are conscious, do not hesitate to ask me."
'I did it with Amelia... no, wait, isn't that rape? Does rape even exist here?' Finn thought, all sorts of ideas running through his head.
"Hm, it's normal. That just proves the great bond between the two of you. You're definitely very close" Cristel said.
"Normal? Is it normal for two friends to fuck?" Finn asked, and Darwin nodded as if it were obvious.
"Of course it's normal. This shows that you're very good friends. Amelia and I have fucked several times over the years, and we still do. Just like I'll make sure that one day you and I reach that point, sweetheart," Cristel said, giving him a kiss on the cheek. 'or marbe more... I really like the idea of giving birth to a baby with his potential and my talent.'
"Wait, what about Darwin? He hasn't been done anything!" Finn said, trying to change the focus.
"Don't be stupid. Darwin will only sleep with completely pure mytt women or elves. Everyone knows that" Amelia stated, and Cristel nodded.
"That reminds me. I know several mytt women if you're interested..." Cristel said, and Darwin nodded quickly, looking eager. 'A great lover of non-humans, without a doubt. I'm sure the mytt will accept him quickly, especially because of his enormous potential.'
