[AN: Bonus Chapter 2/3]
"Fuck you, bastards! "
As Ryu and the others left the inn, they were met with a familiar person yelling and screaming while streaking through the town without a single piece of clothing on. Luckily this streaker had yet to activate the adult function of the game and still looked like a barbie doll in the crotch area. Behind him was a man with a shield on his back waving what looked like a pair of dirty underwear. "BurningToast, don't run! You still have to eat this last piece of clothing! I promise I won't kill you! In the name of, I, AzuritePaladin, I swear on my name I will not kill you… much!"
Ryu looked at the group running through the streets and chuckled as he continued on towards the home of the lord of this village. The group caught the attention of a lot of people. But this was to be expected when Ryu no longer had a mask on his face due to the dungeon, and the four girls with him were also very good looking. But it was mainly Ryu's appearance that caused the biggest issues because not only female players but also the female NPCs were also staring at him with blushing cheeks as they giggled and pointed while chatting to their friends. Some even got yelled at by their husbands and boyfriends for blatantly staring.
"Ryu, when we are done here, we are going to go and get you new armor right away!" Chi said while pinching his waist.
Ryu smiled and pulled Chi close to him and whispered: "I will make some new armor for us with the materials we got earlier when we go back to the palace. We can also try to break through as well." Hearing Ryu say, 'try to break through' caused Chi to instantly blush as she obediently nodded her head.
It did not take long to reach the village lord's home as it was close to the inn, only five minutes away. The house itself was one of the few that was smaller than the rest, which was strange due to most lords having huge mansions. But this place was like a small cottage set back behind a few tall buildings out of sight. No one would even know it was there if not for the huge sign out on the main road that read: "Village Lord's Home" with a big arrow pointing down the road.
Just seeing the big sign and then the small little cottage made Ryu think that this city lord might be quite the eccentric. Ryu walked up to the door and knocked on it, but no one answered. Ryu waited a minute before knocking again, but yet once again, there was no answer. Feeling a bit confused since it was during the day still and this was something that should be accessible all the time, Ryu decided to open the door a crack.
"Haha! You owe me 5 silver!" An old man's voice shouted as soon as the door opened.
Ryu was stunned when he walked in and saw two old men staring at the door. One with a big smile on his face and another with a grim look. The one with a grim look pointed his finger at Ryu and yelled: "Why couldn't you have knocked one more time!? Now I owe this old fool 5 silver! Damn it, and I thought I would finally win against this old man."
"Uhhh..." Ryu raised his hand and knocked on the door next to him. "Now, I knocked three times?"
The grim looking old man's lips curled up into a smile as he jumped up and down. "Hahaha! I like this kid! You old fool now owe me 5 silver, cough it up!"
"What!? But the door was already open!" The other old man yelled.
"No! No! We bet how many times he would knock! He now knocked three times! No one said shit about the door being opened!" The once grim looking old man yelled back.
"Fuck! Let's fight it out! I will knock those fake teeth in!" And like that, two old men began fighting for absolutely no reason.
Ryu and the rest stood there watching as the two old men were pulling on each other's beards and pushing each other's faces away, doing their best not to laugh. The scene was quite comical. "Ummm…. How about I just give you both 5 silver and we call it even?" Ryu couldn't help wanting to butt in. He had a soft spot for the elderly.
As soon as they heard Ryu's words, both old men stopped fighting and quickly straightened out the robes they were wearing and ran their fingers through their beards that were in a disarray. But for some reason left the hair on top of their heads that they were pulling at still in a mess, sticking up every which way. "Ahem… Since this young man is so kind, then we won't fight anymore."
The once grim looking old man nodded his head, agreeing with the other old man while checking Ryu out. "Hmmm. This young man is not bad looking. Young fellow, how would you like to marry my granddaughter? She's a little on the chubby side, but I am sure she will give you nice fat kids."
"Pfft! Who are you trying to sell that pig off to!? Do you think your granddaughter fits this young man and his good looks?" The other old man let out a laugh, and he made fun of the other old man. He then turned to Ryu and said: "My granddaughter is very pretty, like a fresh flower. She is untainted and will do whatever you ask of her. Even if you have some kind of weird fetish, she will still do as..."
"Enough! Ryu is mine!" Chi yelled out, her eyes glowing as she did. She finally couldn't take it any more. Not when someone was trying to send their granddaughters into her lover's bed! There was no way she was going to accept such a thing!
