Combat Maid Harem

Chapter 4 - Lawrend's Plan And Aleshia's Troubles



Lawrend entered the door to a tall establishment in the merchant district. It was bustling full of people. Burly men are laughing on the side, armored men cleaning their armor, some silent people, etc. It was very diverse.

This was the Adventurer's Guild. It is the authority over quests, bounties, and prestige among adventurers.

Lawrend had an old butler walking behind him as he walked to the counter. What greeted him was a beautiful big-breasted big sister. She smiled from far away when she saw them approaching.

"What can I do for you, sir?"

She probably noticed that Lawrend lacked an adventurer pin. It was something that displays whether you are an adventurer or not. Otherwise, she would have called him 'adventurer'.

"I am posting an Alive Bounty."

Lawrend pushed the locket towards her as he said so. The receptionist was a little bit taken aback by what he said. Bounties are rarely made. Usually, only the local government would post bounties and it is mostly for criminals.

So when a civilian posts a bounty, it has to go through a rigorous background search. If the target is a civilian without any criminal records then it is strictly forbidden to give any bounty. It also applies to civilians making a bounty for a civilian criminal, if they are unrelated to the crimes that were committed then they are also forbidden.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

The receptionist left the counter and entered the back. She returned a few moments later carrying a couple of sheets of paper.

"Please fill up these two forms."

The big-breasted receptionist gave the papers to Lawrend which Lawrend promptly filled up. He then turned around and gave it to the butler behind him.

"You know what to do."

"Yes, Young Master."

The old butler's name was Alfred. He has been working for Lawrend's father all his life. He took the paper and quickly filled it up.

"Here."

He handed it over to the receptionist which verified that it was filled up correctly.

"Thank you. Please prepare the bounty soon. We would get back to you three days later."

The receptionist gave a small piece of paper and smiled as they left the guild. Lawrend grinned when he looked at the piece of paper in his hands. It would be the proof that he was the one who set the bounty, and anyone with it would also be able to cancel the bounty.

Lawrend and the butler returned to the mansion on a noble's carriage.

An hour earlier, Aleshia was combing her hair in front of a cracked mirror. She hummed a little tune as she gently combed her hair.

She was wearing a green dress she bought just recently. It was second-hand and quite old.

She wore it especially for this occasion only. She and her little sister are gonna visit the Healer Natasha. Healer Natasha is a noble so coming to visit her with her usual clothes would only anger her.

"Are you ready, Ella?"

"Yes, Big Sister!"

Ella who was wearing a yellowish-white dress replied jovially. She felt different wearing this dress today. She kinda feels like a noble.

"Hold my hands."

Aleshia held Ella's hands as they left their small and dilapidated home in the slums. When they appeared on the streets in the slums, people were looking at them. In the slums, you rarely see anyone wearing anything fancy. So seeing them like this attracted a lot of attention.

"Listen, Ella, when we enter Healer Natasha's home, you should bow. Nobles do that every time."

Aleshia explained as they crossed a street.

"I understand, Big Sister."

Ella nodded her head cutely. Ever since she can remember, her Big Sister has been taking care of her well. She trusts her Big Sister very much.

After crossing a few more roads, they approached a tall wall that separates the slum district and the merchant district. The city guards can be seen patrolling the top of the walls.

Aleshia and Ella walked towards a city guard guarding the gates.

"Hello, Mr. Julian."

Aleshia greeted the guard with a smile. The guard looked at her in surprise.

"Out for a walk, are we?"

There was a licentious glow in the guard's eyes when he looked at Aleshia. Aleshia was already beautiful even when she wore her daily clothes which are not matching her. But when she wears something like a dress, even if it was only second hand it accentuated her beauty more.

"Yes, we are out for a business."

Aleshia didn't want to reveal too much since the healing of her little sister is very important for her.

"Alright, you may pass, but..."

A wicked grin appeared on the guard's face as he looked her up and down.

"Big Sister, he's scaring me..."

Ella hid behind Aleshia when she saw the scary face the guard was making. Aleshia gritted her teeth in anger. The guard was obviously lusting after her body.

"Ah, did I scare you? I'm sorry. Little Ella, was it?"

The guard crouched down and smiled at Ella. Ella only peaked at him from the hem of Aleshia's skirt and said nothing. The guard didn't mind and stood up, he then pulled a piece of paper from under his armor. He wrote a few words on it before passing it to Aleshia.

"Meet me at this address later at night. Wear that dress too."

The guard grinned to himself.

"I... okay..."

Aleshia wanted to refuse the paper but when she saw the threatening looks the guards on top of the walls were making she decided to endure for the time being. If she makes a fuss right now, she wouldn't be able to leave the slum district. She would just ignore it later.

The guard opened the gates and allowed for Aleshia and Ella to go through. Just when they passed each other. The guard whispered to her.

"If you don't come tonight, we will raid your place. Hehehe"

The guard chuckled.
