Like what the hell am I going to do now? Both of the lives in my head had shit to do before now. Like I could spend all day trolling in Heroes of Da'ta or go to class, or run errands for mum if I was really bored or banned. And cornibus always gave me work and studies in the tower.

And just now I had all these problems to solve via violence, but now I'm alone with dear Erret in a mansion I need to rebuild with nothing actively threatening my life now.

"Besides these ring ass motherfuckers" I grumble, glancing at the oddly fogged up mirror by my bed, and the fresh rose sitting beside it. the dark wood creaks again, my mostly empty room sounding like a hungry stomach as I look over to the pile of my things I tossed where the dresser used to be, under my window.

And that explains why I can see, the sun's rising in the sky and my window is open for me to look over at my haunted mansion gardens. A little voice giggles in my head, I feel like a princess in here. but then a deeper, more depressed voice adds on "Yeah a princess of dust and shit"

Throwing my legs and tail over the side of my bed, my blue night gown flutters in the wind as that same, mind numbing question fills my head

"What am I going to do now?" I ask, feeling scared, not of death or anything but because I am going to get bored really fast and I have no way to fix it in sight right now....besides that tomb but...eh.

What do I do?
[] wring my mind for things I could do
[] see what Erret is making for breakfast
[] bitch about ghosts
[] get dressed and head to town to find workers and such to fix my manor
[]wander my grounds to think
[] practice my magic and sword fighting

Belua deserves a break, and now we can show Errat the joys of fucking with people! It'll be great

Well not much I can do with an empty stomach and as tired as I am. I have all day to figure out what to do next, set my next goal or at least find something fun to do. Who knows maybe some hiver queen will try to claim my garden as her home and I'll be in danger again and just burn them out? Maybe the mayor will be a shit and try to take my home and I'll have some dangerous fun kicking his ass?

"Ahhh" I yawn, stretching my arms and tail out as I close the window and lock it with the small silver bar between the panes "Now I'm just filling my head hopeful thinking, hehehe"

Grabbing my robes, I toss them over my thin, baby blue night dress. I'll bother to get dressed when I warm up and fill my stomach, besides not like anyone will see me under here. Shaking my head I push the double doors to my massive, mostly empty room open, stepping on the polished black stone floor out of it, curling my toes as I feel the ice like chill on it.

"Spirits depart" I hear that soft voice from my shield chimes somewhere back in the master bed room, and wouldn't you know it the floors get a little warmer with the air. Going to have to thank that thing later....god I am glad no one can read my mind, I would sound like a fucking lunatic to them.

I yawn and begin to walk down the recently de-vined and weed hallway, the windows reset and the floors cleaned, and the recently patched holes in the roof still smelling like plaster and paint and.....bacon.

Wait a second. Stopping where I'm standing, I sniff the air as my tail wags slightly behind my feet. Yeah that is bacon! Oh so erret's awake.fantastic, I'll have some food to help me think and...

I turn my head away from the hallway filled with the ruined furniture as I swear to god and all the gods of this world that I just saw an old man dusting the walls. Yeah I'm getting the fuck out of here before a little brat asks me to play with them.

So I run down the hallway
-

"Ah master.....you look, tired?" Erret says confused, her smile wilting as I push open the door to the kitchen, not wanting to stay in the dining room since the emptiness has been creeping me out since I tossed out the corpse juice covered table we found inside it "did you run down here? I didn't know you were that hungry!....er is everything all right Lady Belua?"

"Just ghosts and sh...spirits vying to ruin my day" I groan as I slump against the wall as she opens her mouth, I raise a finger and shake my head "And don't tell me again, they're not going to hurt me because of the crone watching me. I don't trust that, I hate ghosts, they scare me"

"I was just going to ask how you wanted your eggs, master" She says sheepishly, rolling butter and oil and herbs around in a pan to cover it.

"Scrambled, and do they have any cheese on them?" I ask as she stomps her foot in frustration "And could you make me some coffee? if it isn't too much trouble"
cont

>>2374934

"No, I'll fetch some from the pantry...the closet we're using as a pantry" She says with a smirk as she pulls her scarf up "And try to figure out how to make coffee....anything else you desire my master?"

"Could you get my clothes? I need to find some workers to fix this place up" I say as she nods and sets the pan aside

"Of course" She says sweetly, pushing past me, leaving me with the smells of my breakfast. And as soon as she's gone I push the air in front of me, just to check if the cash shop still works and

"Huh" I grunt under my breath as magic sparks flow from my fingers, as the screen slowly fills my vision "So that's how it works now then? perfect"

Tapping my finger on the money bag, I slowly make a list of what I could do that will kill time/ give me some fun

1: get workers to start fixing up this place
2: try and scare Erret by jumping at her when she gets back
3: explore that tomb Alimofa told me about
4: Scare erret by covering the paintings with red paint
5: gather some squires/ renters, or just plainly "Make" a knightly order
6: Scare erret by making it look I've lost my head
7: Get some other servants
8: Just ask the town if they need help
9:Wander around looking for trouble/ monsters
10: Wheel and deal some other players
11: find a friend or two and get some partners and crime
12: Scare erret someother way
13: Pray and cleanse these fucking cursed grounds

"What do you mean stay here and clean?' Erret asks, frowning and trying to hide her "anger" at not being able to follow me around like she always does

"I know you want to keep me safe, but carolton is a quiet little town and everyone....most people in it love me" I say sweetly as she pouts "this manor of ours is not, it needs cleaning which is why I'm going into town, and honestly you'll be more help here"

She pouts and glances back at the horror movie esc view of my home and turns back to me as her purple eyes begin to darken

"How long will you be gone for?" She asks bluntly "I don't enjoy being away from your side, where I can protect you my master"

"Not long, need to get some workers to patch up the holes or get new furniture etcetera, some other workers to clean this place and some priests to do the same....shouldn't take me long" I say with a smile as I head back the new gates I managed to snag for free for selling the old set for scrap "Might look for a squire or some renters when I'm out, just to fill up the halls"

"You really don't like being here do you?" She asks almost teasingly "I wasn't aware the dead scared you so much master"

I keep my mouth shut and resist the urge to stop and devise and comeback or get some petty ass revenge.

Sighing through my teeth, I open the cash shop with one hand and swirl the other around to see if I can make a ball of ice to toss around/at someone. Been trying to practice enough to make a smooth, perfectly round ball with it, and I think I'm getting close.

Also it seems like I have 70 cash shop bucks left, not sure what I can buy with that. Not sure if I can get more, may be a problem but....the more mundane stuff I'm looking to get done shouldn't dig into my gold too deeply

Since the priests will come and bless my home for free as I am blessed by one of the seven nameless lords. The workers....most of them may work pro bono, but if not shouldn't cost too much besides the furniture and even if they don't I have enough stuff to sell that I shouldn't worry about it anyways.

And any servants I pick up I should be able to pay with the tithes I'm getting from the farmers/ the mayor for saving their asses and being the one sitting on the highest rung of the social ladder now.

I toss my ice ball up and down, catching it and pointing a finger to see if my "frost beam" idea works, and hearing a bird's call get cut off as I grin wickedly

And finding renters shouldn't be too hard, all the other players are living like peasants, living on scraps in the bar and huddled together....though some of them have grown balls after my and my sometime lackeys/ acquaintances luck and continued survival. Mostly my badassness.

Hmm, so many choices....Well getting some workers just to make my manor livable shouldn't be too hard, just ask around. Most of the people here should know enough carpentry to make it...acceptable

"OI LADS! LADY BELUAS COME TO VISIT!" the gate keeper of my road yells "Oi graveborn, what buisness do you have today?"

I smirk and shrug

"Ah mysterious magician knight stuff eh? Well welcome on to carolton mi'day" He says bowing as I try to resist the urge to call him a fedora tipper since those don't exist here....thank all of the gods. Besides he wouldn't be able to get it.

Walking into the street, a round woman waves to me as she drags her brats on, and some younger men try to get my attention with whistles.

I frown, getting priests to make my house less ghosty won't be hard.

Buuuuut, but choosing the right servants and renters will. I don't want to overwork poor erret, nor do I want dickheads and cunts under my roof.

I toss the ice ball up and shatter it by clenching my fist, to the awe of the old farmer and his youngins running round my feet.

Besides, not like I'm doing anything major with the repairs and renovations yet, just making the place liveable. and I can always change that later. So I can focus on finding good maids and shit and renters who I won't have Erret strangle in there sleep. the priests and workers don't need any real attention or work put into them after all

I giggle, god I feel like someone from game of thrones. Don't watch it to know who though....wonder if this place can still get netflix.

What do I focus on first
[] picking out the right servants
[] Getting some renters/ squires who I won't want to beat
[] Buy something/ get more money from the cash shop
[]Chat with some of the townsfolk to pass the time

Question for later I guess. Well I don't know where to find servants, so renters first then. grinning I throw my hood down, and put my fancy top hat one, as my form fitting chainmail and the crystals in it shine in the rising sun's light, casting golden and blue light as I head towards the bar.

"I wanna go home" Some drunk bitch of a minotaur whines, with a dog girl laying on the ground in front of him

"God, I'll never complain about student loans again, just put me baaaack" She cries

"I miss my cock" a petite little girl whines, with bubblegum pink and shocking blue hair.

I ignore them and kick the door open. And the instant I do I notice that there are people staring at me and my new armor....like perverts.

One of them is elrond, and green bean. I grit my teeth as I walk in and summon my headphones, turning them up as loud as I can and setting them down as all of the bar stops, former npcs and players alike

"Oi, free drinks for her" the fat bar keep yells "Hey, missy wanna try out a new drink? its called the Blue Belua and I think you'll like it"

"Later ted" I say with a grin as I can hear all of them speaking in hushed whispers and gossip, ooooh its like cocaine. clapping my hands together, my headphones flip through the my saved music "I'm hear with an offer, but lets get some music in here first, to set the mood"

"Oh if it isn't the devil herself" Black cheers from the corner of the bar

"Oh god are you going to drag us out on an adventure again?" Steve whimpers

"Are you actually giving her that look?" Oda jeers

"Ah, the saint" Mathius bell says "I thank you for saving the souls of me and my men"

"And saving Henji!" the cat girl calls out from....somewhere

thank god my music has began to play, and has scared the shit out of the red shrikes and the bar keep

"Yeah yeah, listen" I say, smacking my shield on a table loudly "I'm hear with an offer for you guys, one none of you can refuse but few will get. SEE I'm a little lonely and my coffers aren't as full and jingly as I want. So I want some company, squires or renters whichever you prefer. So show of hands! who wants to stay in my mansion, get off the streets and serve under a knight? Hmm?"

a few of them give me odd looks as Elronde winces and weeb force get all sparkly eyed, the smell of booze and barf heavy in the air.

"Are you actually a player or" Someone asks as I laugh and stick my tongue out

"Hell yeah. Just lonely and poetic for some fucking reason" I cackle as Mathius tries not to laugh "But doesn't it sound nice? You can get out of this shithole, no offense ted"

"My name isn't ted!" the barkeeper yells back to me

"It is now, but yes, you can live like kings or...barons at least with me, get a foot in my latest venture, get put lower on my list of people to fuck with, maybe even get knighted if I like you enough or you prove yourselves somehow" I say happily as I pull a char out from a drunk little spindly elf girl and sit in it, as her brown ass slams into the floor.

I spin the chair around with an ice patch, giggling as I take in all of their desperate stares, hungry eyes, desire filled expression and pitiful, hopeful smiles. Oooooh its like Wiiiiiiine, so sweet! I can't get enough of it!

"Doesn't it soooound lovely?" I sing "Of course I'm only letting in the ones I like, cause you will be living with me. offer may show up again later but"

Sneering and I lean back in my chair, stomping my boots into the ice as it grows to keep me from falling as I look into the eyes of the big bear beast kin looking down at me and the crowd pushing to get past him.

"But I wouldn't bet on that. So" I say sitting my chair back up "Who should I pick? to live under my roof, maybe serve me, maybe have some fun in my next venture, maybe even be called my friend? you know how much the town loves me, big boon there. Not to mention your bitch asses could become knights, like me, hmm!"

Probably leave anyone else for later, us headhunting everyone is not our style.

I giggle, as I spin my chair around on the circle of slick Ice I made with a flick of my wrist, pushing my tail down to stop myself so I'll face the usual three, who've helped me since I came to this world, the closest people to what I could call friends in this world Besides Erret and....Cornibus I guess. Black, Oda, and that dull bastard steve

"Of course that last part isn't directed at you three lovely gents" I say sweetly, standing and clapping my hands together with a impish giggle, trying to look innocent despite my smile as Oda's face scrunches up, steve digs around in his ears and Black tries his best to look like big bubba in prison "Oh my comrades who bled with me, killed with me, saved this town with me, you brave three sirs"

"Cut the shit"Steve says, as Oda covers his mouth to stop him from saying anything else that'll get him lynched

"hey didn't she ruin this all for us?" someone in the crowd calls "Didn't realize how fucked this world was till she spoke up when this all started"

"No my fault" I sing holding my hands and tail up to placate the few farmers in here getting shit faced "thanks by the way oda"

"Somethings wrong, you're being too nice and haven't said the word weeb or some other insult in at least a minute" He says snarkily as Steve pushes his hand away

"Christ why do you smell like oil?" He gags "Take a shower ya sorry bastard"

"Language, around the lady of the grave' Black says, quickly picking up on how the farmer's expect him to attack before he grins "So tiny, why are you offering us this"

"Yeah, kind of figured you know" Steve adds in looking to black

"Okay what they're trying to say is they thought you'd be a bit yourself about this" Oda chimes in "Since we haven't seen you for a few days and you were...."

"doing all this to keep yourself safe" He whispers in my ear

"Also didn't expect you to just offer, thought we'd have to dress in drag and earn our pay on the streets" Black cackles with a mad glint in his eyes

"At first" I say sweetly as I put my arms around Oda and black's shoulders, and do the same with steve

"this feels wrong" He groans "are we really going to shack up with her"

"Hey she's cool? And I thought calling her out on her shit was oda's thing....complaining to, steve? did you two switch MINDS?! Hahaha" Black bellows

"Well she showed she was actually quite a nice person, deep down' Oda says shrugging "and a pretty good leader and bet to get through whatever we meet alive"

"Deep, deep down, but yeah she's cool. I just expect this all to be a joke?" Steve says meekly as I laugh

"A joke? Come on, we've been comrades since we met, brothers in arms" I say hugging them closer "You guys are cool"

"What?" Oda says, grimacing a bit

"Huh?" Steve grunts "but you keep calling us names and"

"Oh awesome, same to you crazy girl" Black chuckles "Glad you decided to finally stop being so....well you know"

"Myself, yeah, but I've always liked you guys. You may be a weeb oda, but you're clever and have balls, I respect that, and you tell it like it is. Black, you're scary and fucking insane, love it, and you're funny and also speak your mind, my kinda man basically" I say happily as I twirl the hesistant, spanish looking marsh elf to me "And you Steve, sure you're a boring piece of crap who just sort of follows black"

"he....well can't argue that" He sighs

"Yeah, you're kind of quiet man" Black adds in

"But you're still not a pansy, and you actually tolerate me like these guys do, sure you don't spit back as much but....well I wanna know you three more, so what do you say?" I ask grinning

"Fucking of course, its boring in here and these cracker ass are crying all the time" Black groans

"As much as I know this will drive me mad....fine" Oda sighs "At least I can keep you under control now"

".....What am I supposed to say? No? Black is my boy and....well you're okay to, Sadie" Steve says dully "Besides I wanna know you better to"

"Alright, so we're agreed? You'll be my roomies slash squires, cause we're all such good friends and you aren't cowardly cunts" I laugh "Besides I need friends"

"Do you? I thought we already were' Black says, pretending to sound hurt

"Really?" Oda asks sounding actually sad for me

"we're going to die aren't we?" Steve sighs "Well at least it'll be exciting"

"HELL YEAH!" Black yells

"can my room be away from his?" Oda asks politely as I push my three friends away and prance up to my next mark "Please? I'll lose my mind if I have to stay with him"

"Pussy" me and black call out at the same time, making steve snicker

"Ah we're gonna kill eachother" He says trying to cheer himself up with humor

Oda, Steve and blackinor are now your friends

"Elrond" I cackle as the alchbitch tries to march away "Come on buddy, we've known each other for so loooong"

"A month at most and you killed me the first time we" He says trying to open the door as i block his way with my tail. Leaning over his shoulder I hiss into his ear

"Before that, I know you have memories of being someone else" I sing into his ear as he turns pale

"Yeah that's creepy" Steve says to himself, shaking his head as Oda nods quietly

"....tch yeah" he grumbles "and you did save me....and killed me"

"And gave you my rare respect" I say happily as he turns and looks at me like I'm insane "Hey I did, after I got the jokes out of my system, come on elly, isn't it better the devil you know than the unknown"

He grins his teeth, his ears waggling as I put my hands on his shoulders

"I guess but you're still such a" He says trailing off

"A whaaaat?" I ask as Black grunts

"be a man and tell her, christ is everyone around her a lil bitch?!" the big baldy shouts loudly

"Says lil miss boom" He says dully as I shrug "But....it is stuffy in that tower, and you can be a cool girl when you aren't in a bitch mood I guess"

"And you like those three yeah?" I ask as he shrugs "Oh yeah you didn't meet them before the raid"

"they seem like cool dudes, and honestly I'd rather be safe with a bully than out her" He says before he laughs "Besides we're child hood friends now aren't we? better start acting it"

"in my own way" I cackle

"Yeah don't try understanding it, just accept it" Steve says

"I'm curious about it" Oda says quietly as I turn back to the crowd

"Are you gathering a harem?" the cat girl asks

"A reverse harem technically" Henji chimes in

"Bitch please I'm the one who demands a harem, look at my greek god physique" Black says posing in front of me "Come on, Mire"

"Dude, stop please" Steve giggles

"Bitch I caught you staring!" Black roars as Oda shakes his head

"Well it'll be fun at least" he says to elrond as I grin and skip over to the weeb force, the Minotaur wisely lowering his head

"if she makes me dress up in anything, I am leaving or killing myself" Elrond says as Henji looks at me with a big grin, his cat girl and Afro friend looking a bit less enthused....oh shit did he lose an eye? Nice.

"I don't think this is a good idea" the afro minotaur says

"Naw she's awesome!" the other afro weeb yells "you saw what she could do, she's like a main character or something"

"And she did rescue my henji, so she isn't all meanness and venom" The cat girl says defending me "She's like a hero or something"

"Like me" green bean says making me think against bringing him into the fold but eh fuck it

"Henji, cat girl, afro twins" I say shrugging "I'll learn your names later, you guys can come to if you pay rent and stay away from my room, despite everything you four are pretty useful, more so than the cowards"

"How can you insult and compliment us in one sentence so fluidly?" Afro man says as Afro bull whimpers

"Its a talent I've mastered over the years" I reply dully "So since you're the king of weebs"

"Oh come on! we're battle brothers to yeah! Comrades in arms! no reason to be so cruel" Henji laughs trying to grab my my shoulder before I grab his wrists and shoot him a cold glare

"if you want to be buddy buddy, stop being so suicidal" I say softly as I let go "And I fuck with even my best friends, I'm giving you guys a chance to get on my good side. Because as much as it surprised me, you were somewhat skilled against those bandits, so I'm putting out an olive branch"

"do you hate or like us?"Afro weeb asks "Bro, what do you think"

"She's like a tsundere from hell" Bull man whimpers

"that or a kuudere, I can't tell but she's so coool' Henji says with sparkling eyes as his groupie huffs

"Hope she isn't yandere, and what about me baby!" She cries out

"So you want to rent then?" I ask

"Yeah you're making an adventuring guild right? Cause we've been looking for one" green bean giggles, brushing his lime green hair from his eyes

"yeah, real weird there isn't one around" Afro weeb says

"Yeah, we haven't had work since the raid, no one else wants to talk to us senpai" the cat girl squeals as I repress the urge to smack her with the nearest chair for that squeal.

"Suuuuuure" I say shrugging as I look to the rest of the crowd "And the rest of you who came along the raid, you're brave and well, honestly I'd like to keep you in one place. if you don't want to just rot here and eventually work for pennies in the farms or shops here, come to my manor and erret will show you to a room if you say I said you could. The rest of you are a bunch of spineless, heathens in my eyes who wouldn't try to even save your own skins soooo, some other time maybe"

"hey you bitch don't think you can!" Someone yells as I shoot a glare towards them

"She'll rip you a new asshole whitey, don't do it" Black sneers

"And so will they" I say pointing to the barkeep reaching for a bottle as the dwar...strone druegar lowers his head "So the rest of you stay away unless you have buisness, or want to be a servant. If you'll excuse me I need to find some priests to de haunt my house, some workers to patch it up"

"Wait what did you just say?!" Elrond hisses at me, trying to grab my tail "de-haunt your what?!"

"Come on, ghosts have you scared out of everything else in this world like hivers, demons, dires, ogres, swamp men, hell cats" Oda lists off

"THE GREAT BLACKINOR!" Black roars, crossing his arms

"The great blackinor" Oda continues "Wind eater serpents, fairies, Moon births, cavern lords, Bone crows and"

"Dude we get it, stop scaring the kids" Steve says softly

"Wow what are those?!" Henji and the two afro bros call out

"Well at least there'll be two other girls up there right?" the cat girl asks me

"Uh yeah, don't worry I'll learn your name when you get up there pinky, probably" I say as I step back into the street, raising my hand up to the bar "Oh, and before I forget, may the seven nameless lords bless you all, the maiden smother you in her bossom and the hound walk by your side, and the crone keep away, peace and love"

And everyone laughs or most of them do. Now to find the help

Impressionable kids are better than cowards any day of the week. By the Seven we're going to have our own little battalion when the siege comes along, I like it

I'd rather leave it to our guests to find us any good player workers. They probably know a few people who are any good. But of course after we get back.

>>2376019
Nevermind about asking the mayor.

Which is going to be a real pain. Sighing I hang my head and slowly crane my neck back to look at the sky, wiggling my fingers as frost crawls between my scales as I slowly scratch the back of my neck and make the middle of this little town begin to snow with my magic. I mean, this place doesn't really have any sort of school for that sort of thing, or people actively searching for work like that. they're farmers, workers and other common people here who just so happen to have a knight ruling over them. Where would I even find good help around here? Servant must be as rare as diamonds around here.

"This is going to be such a pain in my" I say to myself before I stop to myself, and frown as I get my first real look of this town since I've saved it. Its cheerier, brighter seeming. People are smiling at me, waving, calling my name and such but all of that just sort of dulls down and gets drowned out, but there isn't any other noise to cause it. the world seems a little darker even though the town is starting to grow and prosper again now that most of the danger around it is gone. but there still something wrong here. Something out of place to my eyes. Something isn't right but what?

What is pulling my heart's strings like this, making me feel so guilty and shitty? What. what.what? Of course the little annoying voice I try to ignore tells me, its been so loud since I've came here and become Belua.

"of course" I say under my breath sadly, as guilt gnaws at my heart again. Right before my eyes I'm reminded what the world is....what da'ta is like. There's street urchins even in a place like this, kids like Erret without a family anymore or never anyone at all. There are kids working grownup jobs. kids wandering around with nothing to do or carrying around heavy barrels and such. Doing work for adults.

And I know at least half of them working are only doing it because their older brothers or fathers died when I led that attack on the farm. And what do they have left? Ashes? and the ones who aren't, they're too poor for a future. And just...thinking about it kills me inside. Sure it might be a little weird, and Erret will have to work herself ragged teaching them but...but

"Hey, Ma'am" I say warmly, smiling as I walk up to a tired eyed woman with her daughter struggling to move a cart of corn together, as a little boy shouts from the back

"Pangolynn" She says trying to bow as she motions to her daughter to do the same "Naria, there's the knight, show respect"

the girl looks at me with sorrowful eyes and I smile

"No, no its fine" I say getting down on my knee as I speak gently "She looks like a lovely girl....is it alright if I take her as a servant? I promise I'll treat her well and pay just as fine"

The girl steps back, looking confused and somewhat angry. I know she blames me for her father's death, but I'll make it up to her

"W..what but we're just simple farmer's mi'lady and" the mother tries to explain as I put a hand on her shoulders
cont

>>2376111

"So was I once, the fates changed that, the gods gave me a path" I say laughing to try and calm her down, make her feel at ease, calm her down "And since her father died under my command, it is only fair I give her the same chance. Her brother to. With as much as I pay, you can hire help on your farm I swear to...wha"

She's....hugging me....and crying?! What did I do wrong, what is she...oh? I get it. I pat her back as she cries and turn to a jealous looking cripple...a man who's leg go snapped during the farm attack

"Hey" I call over "I remember you, your son rushed to meet you right? I'd like to ask you about him to"

That as well. I'm against going full snuggles though. We're going to have to do a lot of awful shit later on, and I'd prefer moral dilemmas don't get in our way.

"Energia" I say under my breath, as I put my headphones into place and turn the volume down so my ears don't bleed and I can hear my workers. Godammit I'm getting soft, I need to fuck with some one before I get too nice. Okay next thing I do after my manor is done is all for me, like the good old days and

"Uh...uh Lady Pangolynn?" the mayor wheezes, dressed in a slightly less fancy suit than the last time I've seen him, and not as much of a fat piece of shit as he was then, snorting like the pig he is and wheezing as he rests against my gate, reeking of bacon.

"Yesssss" I say, controlling my grin as I think of ways to troll and torment the piggy, since everyone fucking hates his useless ass it won't make me look, TOO BAD! just sort of like a trickster leading him to the light instead of the bith I am

"Uuuurgh" He says, turning pale pink as he wipes his forehead again and looks behind him "Why did you call me up here so suddenly my...my lady"

He looks at the ground, like a kid about to cry about not getting his sweets. Guess he's sore he has to work for someone besides toladar? Hmmmm

"Oh, Just had a few questions to ask you about my fief and such" I say shrugging as I look past him "Are the brats and my ren...squires coming up from town yet?"

"Oh yes, I demanded I'd go first, as we're both of noble blood now, oh most noble magician of death" He says bowing as he takes off his nearly comically small bowler hat "They'll be here shortly though I could've just lent you my servants and manor. Tch you don't have to live in this thrice tainted and damned"

"But I want to, and I wanted to be generous, to the families I split apart and the ones you didn't help" I say as friendly as I can to fuck with his head, make him think I'm going to fire him from his position, just to see him squeal and huff

"It...it was hidden from my eyes I swear Lady knight and uh" he stammers, trying to cover his own ass, but that's a little hard since its so fucking huge. Hmm I'll torment him more later, I have crap to do

"So, the fief?" I ask, turning my back to him "How is it doing, finanically and...in general? any more problems in the farms?"

"Oh it is doing wonderfully my lady" He says, walking to my side, rubbing his forehead again, stuffing his stained handkerchief into his coat pocket "yes, the lowborn aren't running from their fields as much since you've come as their...savior and most signs of taint seem to have crawled away accept..."

"Accept?" I ask glancing at him, sighing as I see the workers slacking off "Oi ya bastards, get back to pulling weeds or I'm sending you to clear the attics with the rest. As you were saying, chubbs"

"Uuuh, well some of the outliers have complained of noises from an old tomb but its nothing I assure you so uh...what's your plan here?" He asks, trying to change the subject to one he's more comfortable in
cont

>>2376261

"Oh just cleaning and fixing it up for now" I say glancing at the workers building scaffolding "which is going to take awhile in of itself, but I do have plans"

"Oh may I see them? I may be able to recommended some better hands for" he says, peeking over my shoulder as I walk over to the table by the old fountain, the guy with the epic beard who helped me at the farm nodding as he goes back to scrubbing it clean

"No" I say bluntly "its just plans for a new wing and some other....comforts for myself and my guests, most of the place is intact I just need it cleaned, repaired and refurnished....now the people still love me, it seems? yes?"

"Oh yes, yes, more so than me at least and wait I don't remember there being so many...." he say like the professorial ass kiss he is, before he shuts up as he notices my glare as he sees the secret passages I've drawn over the design of the mansion "ah, the other comforts, but yes, you are well loved. You did take the roll of the crusading angel after all eheheh"

"Good, now...hey what are you doing? Plant roses there" I groan shaking my head "And please try to put the new stones closer, don't want to break my toe one these....what are those walls? for sheep? christ go...go put in the new windows....Hey don't drop those in the"

"Now you see the weight of ruling" the mayor says, sitting his fat ass in one of my new smoking chairs as my music changes

"You know, I feel like I should have a whip and some sweet tea in my hand before I get put to work pulling cotton" Black laughs as Steve whistle

"Damn you're this loaded" He sneers as Oda walks up

"Thank you for giving us a roof over our heads that doesn't drain us dry" Oda says as he glares at the mayor "oh hello sir"

"What's fatty doing here? He the meat?" Black says licking his lips in a gay way

"Yo, don't get so rapey around me man, we talked bout this" Steve says as the mayor stammers and points at me and big baldy

"What, also you can stay and watch or go back now, asked all I needed unless you're wondering if you can help" I sigh, not even looking at him as I turn to my friends "Also welcome to Pangolynn manor, help if you want, uh tell the guys in the library to wear masks sweeping up the ashes there and most importantly welcome to my abode, make yourselves at home and don't disturb the priests"

"Where's the booze?" Black as bluntly

"Dude we just left the bar" Steve sighs as he tries to follow him with out disturbing the workers in my rapidly clearing garden....actually looks like one now instead of a godamn Jurassic park

"Oh Oda, before those two get stabbed by my girl, Tell Erret they'll be staying here and make sure they don't try and push her around" I say as Oda looks around at the beautiful results of my work and orders, most of the town of carolton working as one force to clean up and fix my home

"Oh I was planning on, it'd only be polite and honestly we owe you" He says softly "Especially since you did save me after sending me on a suicide more or less"

"You volunteered" I say happily, turning away from him to go and tell the guys trimming the bushes they're doing it wrong "And since you seem good at this sort of thing could you"

"Help lead efforts, sure, also the alchemist is coming" He says as he walks away "thanks again even if the two idiots didn't say it"

"I must say you keep most queer company" the mayor huffs and puffs trying to get out of the chair

"break it and you'll be banned from my manor" I hiss at him, swishing my tail behind him

"Well it wouldn't be much a loss for you, since you have most of the region here already" He laughs meekly

"Fits you, you know....where's Erret?"Elrond asks warmly "Also thanks for continuing to....protect me"

I giggle at the look of disgust on his face

"Yolo" I laugh "and don't mention it, she's somewhere inside, don't expect you to help since you'd drop dead"

He snorts and nods, pulling his hood down with a sigh as he takes in the sighs of toil around him, the piled bundles of weeds next to stacks of new bricks and freshly cleaned marble blocks

"Well, it'll look nice soon, and thanks for that" he says "I'm going to see if there's still a connection here"

I give him a look with a raised eyebro

"oh cashshop works" he says excitedly holding up a godamn cellphone, making my heart jump as he smiles an innocent almost boyish smile, his pale cheeks turning rosy "and it was able to transer my Mp3s so....heres hoping yeah"

"I knew that just...christ don't confuse these good folks" I groan as I look to the mayor "uh, gnomish device, veeeeery expensive and rare"

"Oi, belua, what do we do with all these old paintings? I think we should burn them to piss on the fucker's memory!" A man calls to me from the gate near the pile of unsalvageable shit

"Sure just wait for me before you" I laugh as I turn to him and slowly frown as I see weebforce nine walking up to me

"Woow you're living like a princess" Cat girl giggles, clapping her hands together as she spins around, getting many strange and "hungry" looks from the older and younger men respectively "but like Alicia the princess of demons from"

"Don't overwhelm her, she has a lot of work here, she's like....doing city planning right now" afrobull

"Damn this is just like my dreams! butler a bottle of rose please" afro says dancing around

"Hey, don't be so disrespectful, we're guests" Henji says trying to look the gentlemen as the catgirl rubs up against them "Uh, as the leader of our band, I want to...for all of us thank you for giving us a home and a chance to work for you guild and"

I look at his eye and the bandages he's covering his missing on with, rubbing the black nail over my thumb with the crook of my finger, weighing how many of them would actually be mad if I poked out his other eye

"Yes, you're a saint like all the townsfolk say!" catgirl says, hugging me and pushing both my ego and the get the fuck off of me buttons at the same time "thank you so much Belua"

"You can also call me sadie" I grumble as I push her face away from mine

"yeah, you're really cool" Afro bro says

"uh yeah, that" afro bull says trying to get away from me as fast as possible

"come along, come along" a guard sighs as the mayor tries to sneak off now that his "Work" is done "don't be scared, you know Lady Pangolynn is kind and gentlehearted, just do your best work and she'll love you as kin, she's a godly woman, she'll teach you the ways of being similar as well, now calm down Aurticas, its still dangerous up here"

"Sorry" I tell the wrangler as the gaggle of brats dressed in little suits and dresses forms in front of me, some rushing to my legs and trying to get my attention, others hiding behind the older kids, and the rest wandering off as the tired looking guard sighs and bows "you did good work, go get a drink and enjoy yourself"

"....is this what you're into" afro bro whispers into my ear as I get down on one knee to make myself less threatening to the kiddies

This is a weirdly perfect song for if Belua somehow get's Tainted if you think about it

My eye twitches as the contempt I've been trying to hold back from showing around the townsfolk crawls out and with a groaning sigh I twist my head towards him and grab his afro as he realizes how badly he fucked up thinking I'm some kind of pedo. his star pupilled eyes go wide as I pull him and nearly slam him into the ground as he whines and cries pathetically, the kids by my feet laughing at him as my smile turns into a horrifying snarl as I hiss into his ear as loudly as I can while still keeping my voice down so I won't be heard by the kids who'll be working for me now. don't need to scare them more than some of them already are, otherwise they might not keep working for me

"Fuck off' I growl as he turns snow white, guess his friends have ran off without him already "before I rip your afro off and force you to snort its charred remains, you weeb freak"

"Sorry sorry, I forgot you weren't like my mates, I'm sorry" he squeals "it wasn't serious I was joking, joking. Stop you're ripping my hair out"

"Good, now don't joke around like that again" I say, tossing him around with a punch to the back.

I turn back to the kids, and smile as gently as I can manage right now, since I'm still pretty fucking furious from that

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you, he's a bad man" I say, crouching down as I motion my thumb towards the jackass scampering away from me, still whimpering in pain "You all can go home after your work shifts are done, but I'll also offer room and board for all of you okay"

"Mum said you were good"

"Why'd you hurt him? What he'd say"

"O..oh course ma'am"

"...Well I don't have a home you know"

"Ay ay"

"Gods bless you miss knight"

"pa said to keep away from....I'll shut up now"

"Tha...thank you Kind lor...lady"

ah crap they're making me warm and tingly inside, dammit I'll have to kick some beggars to remind me to stay mean and bitchy. Godamn adorable brats....need to establish dominance

"Serve me well, okay?" I say, trying to sound as intimdating as I can "or I will be scary"

And now the younger ones are crying, dammit I don't like little kids, no idea how to deal with them. I was young when erret was so that won't help and I never liked kids back on earth, especially brats and....dammit, I'll stab my heart if it keeps aching like this. Fuck

"What?" I say, laughing nervously so I don't ruin my new servant's views of me or have them go back and tell their parents I beat them or something, not that I care but....Well I have a good thing here, not fucking it up cause of them. NOPE DON'T FEEL BAD FOR MAKING THEM CRY "Do I have something on my face?"

A part of me dies as I hear some of the workers on break laughing at me acting like a dog, and make a mental note to fuck with them later, scare em and remind them not to laugh at me. I sigh, a broken woman now as I shake my hand and stand up, turning my back on them and pulling my hood over my blushing face.

Better scram before I embarrass myself anymore or kill myself a little more inside.

"Look, just settle in" I say sternly, desperatly trying to get the runts to stop giggling and serious up. Maybe I should've just let them cry and risk my good reputation cause this is torture that I DON'T deserve "for now, explore where the grown ups say is safe, I'll learn your names at dinner tonight. Don't be afraid, I just want what is best for you"

"....Mum was right, you aren't as bad as I thought you were" the first girl I hired says shakily

I stop and shake my head, stomping my foot. Dammit I don't like being good, I like being bad. Need to get away from them before I end up adding them to the list I have Erret on of people to be kind to. Since she is the only who deserves it so far.

Fair enough, we only got a glimpse of that from Krovy. If it happens, it would certainly be a sight to see. And we could hug Errat for as long as possible then

Well now I need to avoid those kids until they get that out of their minds. I fucked up, went too extreme both ways. and now I'm pissed and want to kill or burn something, but the paintings can wait. There's stuff I need to do now before I go out and indulge myself in chaos again. First off, need to see how Errets doing and if the priests are done de-spooking my mansion. Alright lets go. I know Erret is away from the priests so it shouldn't be too hard to find her, just go to the opposite side of the masks and I'll find her more likely than not.

I walk through the open doors, past the men and women tearing down moldy green wallpaper and replacing it with deep blue and dull grey. I nod to them as I walk towards the main hall, watching the more expert masons I hired breaking apart the dire's old sigil to replace with my personal heraldry. they wave at me as I walk past them, following the scent of burnt wax and silver in the air towards the lower dining room.

Pretty sure the priests should be in here, judging from the chanting. Pushing the door open, throat burning smoke, smelling of old bleach, death and burnt metal flows over nearly killing me as I hack and wheeze

"Are cronetouched, checking on our progress? we are in the middle of exorcising a stubborn soul, to guide them to the promised fields, you may join us if you" one of them in the silver mask says with a airy, smug voice

"No no, I'll pass, how much longer will you be?" I ask as he nods and turns back to the burning, screaming red light between him and the six other priests

"If all goes well, only a day or two more, this spirit is a stubborn one so it is slowing our holy work" he replies "may be faster if the rest allow themselves to be led without a fuss or"

I close the door quickly and turn away, jogging into fresh air, rubbing my burning eyes.

"Okay...okay" I wheeze, struggling to breath as I shake my head "time to find Erret"

-

"Ah master" Erret says, rushing down to meet me as she drops her feather duster in the empty bookshelves in the echoing, empty room that used to be the library "Is your work done? I'm guessing it is! this place has become wonderfully lively"

"Observant, and yeah, sorry about the priests" I say happily as she tries to slide down the ladder she's hanging on and I get ready to catch her or giggle at her if I can't. Not laugh, giggling is as far as I'll go for erret since she trusts me more than anyone else

"its fine, more than fine, I can feel the pain lifting from these halls, I just...don't like the way they look at me as you know" She says, stumbling as she gets off the ladder, but she catches herself "its just in my nature you know"

"Well, just being sure. They'll be gone soon. Hows your cleaning going?" I ask as she smirks under her scarf

"it'll be a lot easier with all the helping hands you brought in, Lady Belua" She says, trying to curtsy "I'll just be happy to see your...our home raised back to its for....to new glory"

"Well I have a lot more work to do, so I'll come back to your side as soon as I can, my master" She chirps cheerfully as she can manage, turning her back to me. Well now that the present problems of my house being a haunted shithole and a mess are done, i can figure out what I'm going to do next.

And I think I know where I'll start

"Hey Erret" I say, grabbing her shoulder "Want to go on an adventure?"

"YES! I mean....if I may leave my work for later, madame" She says trying to keep her dignified facade in place, making me laugh which just makes it break more.

Best girl needs her alone time with Belua after all

And if it does happen, I imagine something like this will happen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy-dhUOs9bs

Probably yeah, while the crazy raid boss lady calls our breakdown one of the cutest things she's ever seen. I feel like she would do that anyway

"Also. before we head out" I say, grinning my trade mark grin and licking my teeth in anticipation of finally getting something fun to do around here since....well I got here. I'm ready to raid some old graves and tombs and root out whatever evil bullshit has rooted itself there. Ohhh its going to be so fun, might even be able to start a bonfire that isn't as boring as the one here is going to be.

"Yes my master?" Erret asks sweetly as I laugh

"Well I should tell you that, Steve, Oda and Blackinor are staying here now, as is Old Elrond" I say with a nod as Erret frowns a look a slightly hidden disgust in her eyes

"Those crude men? Elrond and Oda are alright but the other two are....well I will move my room away if they choose ones close to me" Erret says angrily before she sighs sadly

"Don't, they don't mind you. Black and steve might be uncouth fucks, but they don't fear or hate tainted....besides they won't have rooms next to you, you deserve a night of good sleep every now and again" I say, snickering as she looks at my confused. Guess she didn't catch my gay joke then. Ah well, I can always tell it to them for a laugh and to piss them off, a good welcoming gift.

"Oh, well then. I suppose I will not then"She says with a weak smile "is there anything else I should know?"

"Yes, there's some kids....brats mostly who need you to teach them how to clean and do other work. they're poor kids from carolton, some street urchins like you, others ones who lost a parent or family to the taint that was surrounding the town" I say, explaining as her eyes flash with joy as I mention the homeless kids "Just....remember not to scare them, alright? they're like most people in carolton, they"

"Fear creatures like me, I know. it is wise of them to do so" She says flatly "Still...I will enjoy teaching others how to serve, you do deserve the best Lady belua, as kind and humble as you are"

I can't help but smirk, since I am a little egotistical at times. Still not as much as I am...well enjoy Schadenfreude. Its just too addictive. Still, haven't had the chance to let loose and grief since all this happened. If only I could still kill people without actually....killing them

"So, what kind of adventure are we going on now my master?" Erret asks, in the same happy yet emotionless way as she tends to speak to me with.

"Oh, we're r...checking on a tomb that has some sort of nastiness in it" I say choosing my words carefully so she won't scold me though I doubt she would anyways "Just you and me"

"oh, well we'll purge it of foulness as we have before"she says her eyes narrowing "and I will protect you from corrupting influences as I always have"

"Good girl" I say, ruffling her hair as I turn to leave and pick up my holy shield and formerly unholy sword.

Now I feel bad, sorry

Also putting your dick in tainted is good way to become one

>>2376741
Great thread as always HM, thanks for running. And oh boy, nothing goood can come of something that vague! Tainted players ahoy.

And yeah that song works so good it's terrifying

>>2376780
I imagine the bullshit liar part would be her reaction if she can't get it "cleansed" fast in via copious amounts of powdered, injected silver, prayer, branding and painful/scaring salve and many other wonderful "Remedies" and "Perhaps cures"

Mainly towards the gods, cornibus, the priest hood, Alimofa...anyone who fails to help her...etc

>>2376780
Also I think Sadie's main change if she got tainted would be she'd stop trying to keep up a good reputation and just revert to her old ways, which would be a shock to most of the people who knew/know Belua

>>2376792
I can see all of that yeah, and empathize with it. You have a worring number of ideas about this HM, is there something you're not telling us? (nervous chuckle) Please don't let Errat beat herself up too much if it happens, it's not her fault no matter what

>>2376807
When I write someone for a long enough time, I naturally imagine bad ends/ tragedies/ misfortune upon them.

Worst one IMO was around when Layla became a vampire and got obsession or maybe the second tier of it. Namely the idea of the state her mind would enter if Maria died, namely basically shutting off and becoming a wretched thing in the shadows where Maria's last resting place ended up being.

Which of course would be surrounded by anyone who got close due to her protectiveness of Maria going haywire with the rest of her then shattered mind.

I think about this sort of thing a lot actually, imagine these sort of fates for characters I write/play in games. Helps me get into their character more by imagining them in despair. No idea why


Also this song would also fit this scenario https://youtu.be/HNIypYrVlkA

>>2376823
That is dark as hell, and I'm glad Layla isn't going to have to go through that. But if that's how your creative process works, than more power to you. It's certainly worked out great for you so far HM, at least from my viewpoint

>>2376839
its one of my ways. which also Include listening to music and talking out lines to be sure they'd sound right with whoever they're written for.

>>2376839
https://youtu.be/t8WuKJa6L5E this also would fit with tainted sadie/belua

>>2376848
Fair enough, music always sparks some kind of creativity in me as well, though I can't really do anything with it.
