Finished changing, both of them looked like seasoned mercenaries. They had dark clothes with leather padding on their elbows, knees, and chest. Iron chest plate, gauntlets, and gaiters with adjustable leather straps. Also, both were wearing a dark brown backpack filled with traveling and hunting necessities.
Ritzy had two short swords strapped on his back, at the hip level below the backpack he had on. While Scarlett had the speared holstered onto the side of her backpack.
Ritzy,
"You may come in now".
Slowly, the clerk entered the room and approached Ritzy at a snail's pace. Reaching Ritzy, the clerk put on an idiotic smile while saying,
"Is there anything else I can help you with? We have poison that can be added to the arrows. Oh wait, maybe tranquilizer would be better if you want to capture what you're hunting... or maybe you would like-".
The clerk started rambling and Scarlett started becoming annoyed but Ritzy let him. He knew what the clerk was trying to slow him down enough for his guild leader to arrive and that's what he wanted.
A minute passed with the clerk rambling and Ritzy sensed something quickly arriving. In seconds, three people entered the store. It was originally locked but the first one to enter broke it without noticing.
The first one to enter was a 50 something-year-old man wearing eloquent dark clothing and shoulder cape with chainmail hidden under his clothes. The second person was a petite female with professional clothing, it seemed she was an assistant. The next person was a chubby man, similar to the one who talked to the clerk earlier. Lastly, it was two beautiful women with ample proportions and silk seductive clothing.
It was obvious to see they rushed hear from the ladies and chubby man's breathing. But oddly, the old man who broke the door accidentally and the assistant lady was fine. Especially the lady since she was wearing heels.
Being here, the old man decided to start the conversation. The old man approached Ritzy and extended his hand forward. But as he saw Ritzy's eyes, he realized who the Ritzy was.
"You must be Young Lord Ritzy of the Reds family, it's good to finally meet you. Sorry, where are my manners? I'm Kyzer Vanille of the Vanille Guild".
Ritzy became a bit annoyed that he wouldn't go under an alias here but there was no choice since he's been recognized. At least it seems they don't know why he's here or that he's here with Princess Diana.
Ritzy,
"It's a pleasure to meet you Guild Leader Vanille, so you know my name?".
Kyzer,
"Of course young lord, the tale of your family having a blessed child was a major celebration. You might be interested to hear that my guild was in charge of bringing gifts from your out of kingdom allies".
Ritzy could tell he was lying but he decided to continue the act,
"Really, then I thank you for working with my family".
Kyzer smiled internally from his small success. He has assured that Ritzy seems in a positive light instead of stranger,
"It was no trouble at all, working with your family was my honor. Sadly your family doesn't do much work in these areas so we couldn't continue doing business".
Kyzer gave a brief pause but then started talking again,
"We should go somewhere more private, I want to know how the Reds family been".
Internally grinning, Ritzy spoke frivolously.
"Lead the way".
...
Following Kyzer, they passed through a couple of streets and into another alley. Going in the alleyway, they entered a door defended by cloaked men which lead underground.
Going underground, they entered a large room with a catwalk and small tables surrounding the catwalk.
One of the workers quickly noticed them and approached Kyzer,
"Guild leader, would you like a seat?".
Kyzer,
"Yes but connect a second table so my new friend can join me. Also, bring us delicacies to enjoy during the spectacle".
Waiter,
"Right away sir, please follow me".
While leading the group, the waiter snapped his fingers to grab the other workers' attention and gave them orders.
Reaching their table, some of the other workers quickly brought one of the nearby tables and attached them.
Kyzer took a seat and signaled at Ritzy,
"Please sit with me, we can talk before the show starts".
Ritzy sat next to Kyzer but as Scarlett was about to sit next to Ritzy, Kyzer's assistant took that spot. Forcing Scarlet to sit further away.
Kyzer,
"So what brings the young lord around these parts of the kingdom?".
Ritzy,
"Just some business, I'm currently trying to buy a boat to travel to the Giant territory. After that...".
Ritzy took a small pause to look at Scarlett,
"That I will spend some time here. There are some things I think I can only experience here".
Kyzer thoughts,
'Predictable, it seems the lower ranking guys were right. He's just a young noble interested in women and the Oreilles guild is trying to recruit him. Maybe if I help him get to Giant territory and offer much more beautiful women, he'll cancel any deal he had with them and join us'.
Kyzer,
"Darya Port City does offer things that other cities can't compare-".
Before he could continue, a water tank was brought out and placed next to the catwalk.
Kyzer,
"It's about to start, you're about to experience something magnificent".
Interested by Kyzer's words, Ritzy used mana presence to examine more precisely the water tank they brought in.
Inside the tank, Ritzy first sensed a rather large but checking more intently. Ritzy discovered it was demi-human his old world called mermaids.
Shortly after Ritzy noticed she was a mermaid, the mermaid pulled the top half of her body over the tank and full display for everyone here.
She had nothing covering her body so her breasts were out feeling the breeze. The mermaid seeing all the males enchanted by her body, she began to sing.
Mermaid,
"I can not ignore these feelings, they make me crazy".
Her tone was lustful but her voice sounded enchanting. Even Ritzy who didn't care about lustful matters, felt his skin yearn for pleasure from hearing her voice.
Mermaid,
"The sense of your strength over me, the sense of your breath on my neck...".
As she sang, the lamps lighting the room were put out. Only the candles on the catwalk and tables were lit.
Ritzy started worrying and used Mana Presence to examine his area. He sensed the waiters, the guards in the front door, some guards protecting the back entrance, women creating a line to the catwalk backstage, but nothing that would pose a danger.
Ritzy's thoughts,
'This mind effect is obviously magic but it's not meant to be lethal. Still, even if no one seems to want cause harm. I need to be extra diligent with my mind tampered'.
Soon, a petite female walked on stage with see-through clothing. She had nothing on her lower half but on the top half was a white see-through shirt on her breast.
