《Shenanigans in The World of Monster Girl Encyclopedia》 Prologue It was a normal a day in local college where students are going about their day. In a local cafe a group of six friends are meeting up for a normal discussion... for them that is "Man, things have changed during the introduction of Zarathustria" said a young man. He is shorter than his friends standing around 5''6", he has black curly hair, tanned skin and blue eyes. He is currently wearing a black polo underneath a gray trench coat, white shorts and brown boat shoes. His name is Farid al-Uddin "Yeah a lot of things." says another young man standing around 5''9". He has black hair in a short fauxhawk, has light skin and has red eyes undearneath his white sport shades. He is currently wearing white t-shirt underneath a green camo military jacket, dark blue jeans and gray combat boots. His name is Nishi Akira going by the surname first. "Humanity has evolved into the next stage apparently." asks a young man with blue square glasses. He is standing around 5''10", has black one sided hair, green eyes and fair skin . He is currently wearing a gray dress shirt under a black formal vest, black formal trousers and black formal shoes. His name is Charlie Holden Alonto Navidad "Yeah the drug does wonders let me tell you that." says a young man with light skin, standing around 5''10". He has blue eyes and messy Blonde hair. He is wearing a green t-shirt underneath a red hoodie, ripped blue jeans and White sneakers. His name is Arno Schulhoff "I''m surprised world peace has been achieved" says a young man with tanned skin, purple eyes and spiky black hair. Standing around 5''11". He is currently wearing a grey polo underneath a black leather bomber jacket, dark green cargo pants and black military boots. His name is Ryo Seung-Heon "You can put that achievement as our new improvement of our charisma and phermones" says a young man with black square glasses standing around 6''2". He has fair skin, heterochromic eyes, red eyes on left and blue on the right, and black hair with yellow stripes at the front. He is wearing a white dress shirt under a dark blue formal coat, black dress pants and brown loafers. His name is Savinkov Rasim Antonovich his friends call him Sav "So what is our next place to strike" asks Farid excited about their next prank "We have either the neighbourhood bully''s house or we can hit another college''s dorm" Akira said as he listed the places they can hit and thinking of plans for those places "Neighbourhood bully, I would not like to repeat what happened when we hit another college''s dorm" Charlie reminded as everyone remembered that dreaded night "Actually there is one more place though it is more of exploring than pranking" Arno said as he remembered something "Let''s hear it then, if it''s like that than we won''t get in trouble" Seung-Heon said wanting to listen "It is somewhere in the local park there was something I saw in the trees and I wanted to explore it" Arno answeredas he was curious about it "So replace the thrill of the chase with the thrill of adventure. I like it" Sav said as he agreed with the idea "Yeah let''s go with Arno''s idea we should just explore something for once" Farid said "Then I''m getting flashlights, it''s better to hit the place at night" Charlie said as he thought about the classes and courses everyone has "Agreed, going under the cover of darkness is good when exploring in a park" Akira said as he is already thinking about plans and tactics in case they get caught "So everyone agrees with the plan" Farid said as everyone nodded "OK Felhoods dismissed" Farid ordered as everyone were getting ready for exploration What they don''t know is that exploration is going to be... Otherworldly At Night We see the Felhoods gathering outside the place Arno told them to meet up at the park "It''s 12:00 AM already, are you sure this is OK the park might close" Farid said worryingly "This is a public park with no fences whatsoever. If they planning to keep people out they''re doing a horrible job at it" Charlie deadpanned at him. Pointing at the lack of guards and fences "So, Charlie you got the flashlights" Arno asked looking at the shrubs the were supposed to explore "Even better." Charlie said pulling out six headlamps "Headlamps, it should give us a better advantage" Charlie dullingly said as he gave the headlampsIf you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. "OK LET''S GO" Farid exclaimed excitedly before Akira bonked him on the head "Don''t shout you''re only going to make things worse" Akira whispered angrily as he grabbed his head to make him face the guard who, fortunately, didn''t hear them "We''re lucky this time let''s not push it" Seung-Heon said as he entered the shrubs Everyone followed suit and they went exploring for an hour before Sav found something "Sav? What are you looking at?" Arno asks as he saw Sav looking down at the grass in front of him "Something''s wrong." Sav said as he kept looking at the grass "What you think grass is dangerous" Arno said baffled at his friend "Just the one in front of me." Sav said, annoyed at his friend That was when the rest noticed their conversation "What is going on?" Farid asked curiously at the his two friends "Sav here is afraid of grass." Arno informed the rest "No I''m not!" Sav yelled in a volume that only his friends would hear "Just the grass in front of me is suspicious" He said as he pointed to the grass in front of him "Sav the grass isn''t dangerous." Arno said "Here I''ll prove it." he continued as he walked to where Sav was pointing at before "How much are you going to bet that he''s going to fall in a hole" Seung-Heon whispered to Charlie and Akira "50 bucks if he falls" whispered Akira "100 if he falls and scream" Whispered Charlie Arno kept on walking, unaware of the bet his friends made, and stood on the grass Sav was looking at "See nothing danger-." He got cut off as he fell into a hole "AAAAHHHHH!" he screamed as he fell "Cough it up." Charlie said as he put his hand out as Seung-Heon and Akira gave him the money while sighing "See told you that grass was dangerous" Sav said he cupped his mouth to yell at Edward who is at the bottom of the hole "Ow." Arno said he stood "Note to self, Dermal Armor does not protect you from fall damage." Arno said to himself as he looked everywhere only to see darkness "Where is it?" Arno said as turned on his headlamp before seeing something strange "Uhh, Guys I have found something of interest" He yelled up "What did he find?" Farid said as he looked down the hole "I also am prepared in case of a situation like this" Charlie said as he pulled out rappelling rope and rappel devices "Where do you keep all this stuff" Sav said as he grabbed his rappel device "There are a lot of pockets in my bag" Charlie said as he grabbed a chisel, wrapped the rope around it and plant it to the ground "Who''s going first though?" Farid asked, slowly all of them looked towards Sav "OK Why me!?" Sav asked as they all looked at him "You did make him go down." Akira reasoned as he looked down "Do It." Charlie said in his best Palpatine impression "Fine." Sav said as he walked towards the hole "Are you sure this is safe though?" he asks as he connected his rappel device As he stood up he looked towards the back he was greeted by Charlie "THIS! IS! SPARTA!" Charlie yelled as he kicked Sav down the hole. A surprised expression on Sav''s face when he got kicked then it turned into an expression of horror as he fell down "AAAAHHHH" He screamed as he fell down "That was mean of you Charlie" Seung-Heon said worryingly as he put his device on the rope "He wanted to ask if it was safe. I gave him an answer" Charlie said as he connected his device rappelled down The rest minus Sav and Arno went down the hole just to see Arno looking at the Sav who is laying on his back "I''m so going to get back at you for that Charlie" Sav groaned as he got up "So Arno, what did you find?" Akira asked curious on what Arno found "Look at this" Arno said simply as he looked toward it with his flashlight on. The rest followed suit and what they found baffled them They found what appears to be a console but what''s next to the console is what baffled it is circular in structure and has ramp leading towards it. The thing seems to be portal considering the bright blue circle in the middle "Is that a portal." Charlie asked baffled at what the Felhoods found "Hey guys check this out" Seung-Heon said as beckoned them to come toward the console "A log" he simply said as he searched the files "This must be the most recent one" he said as he found a File called Project Monstrum Puella ''Project Monstrum Puella is a declared a failure. Many volunteers seems to have disintegrate after going in the portal. We believe it was due to the power of the portal or they didn''t have enough resistance for portal travel. The higher-ups were baffled at these occurrences and my colleagues can''t seem figure the exact reason for these occurrences. The higher-ups decided to close the project as to not lose more people. This Ryan Pearce signing out.'' It read "Pft, I can already see the problem they have." Seung-Hoen said as he pressed certain buttons on the console "They seem to have added too much power to the portal." he said as the portal seems to dimmer a bit "Well do you guys think we can make this our new base." Farid said as he looked around the abandoned lab "Good idea, maybe we can go to other worlds and make contact." Akira said as looked at Seung-Heon "Unless they have already done it" He asked Seung-Heon Seung-Heon shook his head "No, according to the files these seem to only be ordered to observe without the locals noticing them" he said as he looked toward the console "The portal seems to be stable enough to enter" He announced "Found these things" Sav said as he showed weird blocky devices "It said that they were mini-portals that were supposed to get you back home in case the portal shut down on the other side" He informed as he gave everyone one of the devices "So now that getting home isn''t a problem what about weapons" Farid announced slowly they all looked at Charlie "I''ve also got weapons" Charlie said as he pulled out a Z-NP and gave it to Akira "Me, Akira and Sav will get assault rifles" he said as he tossed a 70-HQ to Sav who barely caught it Charlie soon grabbed a D5-N and tossed it to Farid, an LZ-HDGZ to Arno and a PT-DTM to Seung-Heon "Farid, Arno and Seung-Heon will get Shotguns" Charlie said " Be careful with it guys these things are experimental and I would not like them to get damaged" Charlie informed as he cocked his rifle "OH, Here!" Charlie exclaimed as he tossed military helmets with faceplates, The glass varies in color but the all hide the wearer''s entire face "Better to be prepared" Charlie said as he and the rest put on their helmets "OK! Is everyone ready" Farid yelled to the Felhoods to be met with varying degrees of approval "Then lets go!" He yelled as ran toward the portal. The rest soon following with him toward an unknown land Let''s hope they can make it back with their virginities intact Character Bios and History of Zarathustra Farid al-Uddin He is deemed the leader of the group of friends out of the fact they think he is leader material and he wears the badge with pride, not seeming arrogant or bossing his friends around because of it.

Someone from Iran had the idea recreate the drug and sell it to the populace. The person was soon arrested after. But the influence of Zarathustra seem to spread at a very fast rate. People are getting more powerful and are experiencing abilities that shouldn''t be normal for a human When it was revealed that drug was the cause of the changes. People wanted the drug so much that there is always a line for Zarathustra dealers Trans-Humans were the infectees of the drug. They were granted increased strength, night vision, Improved digestion, Muscular growth, able to connect to computers and talk to plants and animals. Let''s say the benefits were too much to list The drug was popular, But they were some people that didn''t want the drug. Killing Trans-Humans out of fear. The group was called the Last Man Battalion. A Human Purist group that aims to eradicate any Trans-Humans and stop the spread of Zarathustra Though it gained a considerable amount of supporters, The group was widely viewed as monsters as they killed Peaceful Trans-Humans, young and old. In the end the Last Man Battalion was disbanded Trans-Humans had an attitude that peace can be achieved through non-violent means. They tought world Peace can be achieved if they set aside their differences. So the Trans-Humans and Humans signed agreement saying that they will respect their right to say no to Zarathustra only if they stop making the cure. Both reached an agreement and world peace was achieved with Greenland being the only Human nation. New world, Old Problems with a Twist The portal opens up in a secluded area on a mountain. There we see the Felhoods exiting it, armed and ready to explore "So this is the other side of the portal" Farid said as he looked around the scenery. His HUD showing that there are zero lifeforms around. "Seung-Heon, did you search the console to find out if the portal stays in the same place?" Farid asked as he looked to Seung-Heon "Yes to both questions." Seung-Heon answered "Turns out the scientists did multiple tests on the portal''s locations and it always stays in the same location unless you change the coordinates" He informed "Well now we don''t have to worry about the portal relocating" Sav said as he looked around "I feel like we''re forgetting something" He said as he looked to the group "Where is Charlie and Akira anyway?" Arno asked as he looked to where Charlie was standing before "They were right there ten seconds ago, Where are they" Sav asked, baffled that someone could go missing in such a short time "Farid this is Akira, I''m here with Charlie and we found two lifeforms, permission to make contact." Akira''s sudden voice announcement message startled the four present "Akira where are you?" Farid asked as he lloked around to found him and Charlie "There is compass on the top of your HUD and a map on the top right. Turns out the helmet just needs to see the area and it should be able to make a map for you, like a video game" Charlie informed as Farid, Arno, Seung-Heon and Sav looked at the top their HUDs, true enough, they saw a compass and map "OK this isn''t helping in finding you guys" Farid said through the comms "The helmets are brain connected, you just need to think of expanding the map and it should expand" Charlie informed. They do it and the map expanded. They saw their missing group members right down the path "Found you guys we''re coming" Seung-Heon said as he went to where their missing friends are with the other three following When they came to the location they saw Akira and Charlie in prone with Charlie lookind down the scope of his gun "Oh hey guys" Akira greeted with Charlie looking briefly before looking down the scope again "What are you looking at guys" Arno asked curiously "We were just exploring the area for anything unusual with talking about the functions of the helmet to me" Akira explained "He told me about the zoom mode in the helmet and when I activated it I looked around until I found two lifeforms to my left" He continued "Charlie activated his zoom mode as well and we found two lifeforms one human male the other is well.... a slime" Akira ended as he took in their baffled faces "....A slime!?" Sav asked incredulously, baffled at the fact an RPG enemy exist here "There is difference between the slimes in RPG games in one we saw" Charlie said "The slime is currently....the hell!?" Charlie looked baffled as he looked down the scope again. Staying silent after looking down the scope "How do you activate zoom mode" Farid asked wanting to see what Charlie saw "It works exactly the same as the map you just need to think about zooming in and it should do it'''' Akira taught. They did it and their visions was zoomed ''''OK then Charlie what got you...'''' Sav said before he saw what made Charlie silent "...Now do you see it?" Charlie asked after his silence. His friends not answering his question at what they are seeing what they are currently seeing. A slime in a form of woman sucking a man''s d**k, with the man showing absolutely no resistance "....I''m scarred for life." all of the Felhoods said in a monotone. Disgusted at what they are seeing "So can we all agree to stop looking at it?" Charlie asked as the rest nodded "On three we stop, one, two, three!" Charlie shouted as everyone stopped looking. "This justs make the world we are in even more questionable." Charlie stated. The rest nodded to Charlie''s statement "So should we make contact?" Farid asked the rest of the group "Maybe." Akira stated "Do you think there are others like her" Akira asked, shivering at the thought "I don''t know." Sav answered "But we are going to find out in our first contact situation" he said as they looked toward the slime and the human "So who''s going to make first contact." Oh so slowly everyone turned to Farid and Charlie "I get Charlie but why me?" Farid asked exasperated at their choice "You are our leader." Seung-Heon started "It is wise to send in the leader of the group just in case the ''I''ll only talk to your leader'' bullshit happens." Sav continuedUnauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. "Don''t worry, Arno with will be with you guys." Akira stated "Wait, what?" Arno asked confused and shocked at his friend''s statement "You''re our guard, protect them" Akira said like it was the most obvious thing in the world "But I don''t want to go!" Arno exclaimed childishly starting argument between him and Akira.The former not wanting to go and the latter trying to convince him to go While the rest were watching the argument and preparing to stop them if things go out of hand, they didn''t notice Charlie going back to the where the portal was Charlie''s POV ''What I saw was troubling'' I thought to myself "What I saw shouldn''t even happen if I think we''re in a world like that...Lord help us'' my internal monologue has kept my self busy that I was already at the portal ''Question is what kind of world did we end up in'' I mused ''If we ended up in a world full monster girls, the question begs what world did we end up in'' I kept on questioning it as my multiple things come up to my head ''Monmusu, Monster Girl Quest, Monster Girl Encyclopedia. How did I even found them while surfing the web is something that baffled me." I mused until I stopped my train of thought ''Now''s not the time to think about that'' I thought, pulling out my phone '' A new world to discover and probably help us in our overpopulation problem.'' while my friends and family come first, solving international problems is also something I prioritize "Hello?" I greeted to the callee on the other end "Charlie? Is that you?" The person was deep yet it held kindness "It''s me Bryan." I answered " Charlie, what makes you call me at this time of night?" he asked " Bryan, You are a friend of mine and I need you to do a favor, a big one." I said, I heard him sigh on the other end "What is it?" he asked thinking that I probably want some food or something like that "Do you have any M1127 Stryker RVs on standby?" I asked, I can feel his surprise on the other end "May I ask why?" He questioned, probably at the fact I am requesting a military vehicle "I need it for something me and my friends discovered can you drop it in. I''ll have the coordinates for it." I requested but i can feel his grin on the other end "Say no more Charlie, in fact there is one right near your college, but you have to let me in on this." He said , I sighed "Very well, sending coordinates." I ended the call and sent the coordinates of the portal. Now I just need a few more calls and get this base up and running Felhoods POV 2 hours after Charlie left "No matter how many times you say it I''m still not going!" Arno yelled at Akira, whose face is blank and sighing from the long argument. Seung-Heon decided to end their argument "Guys." Seung-Heon called out, with vain because Arno and Akira are still arguing "Guys." He called out a little louder to no avail "GUYS!" he yelled, stopping the two arguing and directing their anger at him "WHAT!" they yelled at the person who stopped their argument "It''s been two Hours since you started." He stated, emphasizing on the hours "I think it''s time to stop." he said annoyed at the two who argued "....Fine." "Of course." Arno and Akira said. The former with reluctance and the latter with acceptance Suddenly they heard the sound of an engine coming close to their location. They wondering while they were hearing an engine while preparing their weapons to the source of the sound That is when they shocked to see it is one of their world''s vehicles. Akira instantly recognized it as the M1127 Stryker. They were even more shocked to see Charlie driving it "CHARLIE?!?" they exclaimed in surprise as the Stryker stopped next to their position "Hey guys." Charlie greeted casually, unaware of the fact he brought a modern vehicle to a fantasy world "...Charlie where did you get this." Sav asked in a monotone. Not wanting to get a headache from asking Charlie where he got it "Oh, that. Well while Arno and Akira were arguing I went back to the cave, made some calls and now we have a fully operational base and I got this from a friend for a favour." Charlie explained but Farid felt something off "But...?" Farid asked as he always knew with Charlie there is a catch ".....I might have told them about what we found but don''t worry. One of my friends has connections in the political world so they would be able to convince the leaders of the world to know that the operation we are doing is, as I quote from the Tau ''For The Greater Good'' end quote." Charlie continued as he saw the looks on his friends faces "....Is there already a FOB?" Akira asked, if the military is involved it should be easier for them "The military, both national and private, are setting it up right now. They decided to call the FOB ''Guardian Colony'' as they plan to send civilians here in the future" Charlie answered to Akira''s question, who nodded in acceptance "Well that makes our job easier." Farid started "So we are going to ride this thing for negotiations." He continued. Charlie nodded "As far as I can tell Sav is the best driver we have so he''s driving with Seung-Heon being the gunner." Farid ordered to the people he mentioned who nodded "The rest of us will be at the back with Akira operating the radio, got it." He ordered at Akira who nodded "OK, Everyone get in!" He ordered at everyone. Who followed his order. as they entered the reconnaissance vehicle, They all sat down on their postions with Farid being the vehicle commander. The engine started and the rest were figuring out where to go "Guys connect to the camera on this thing, I see something ahead" Seung-Heon ordered. They connected to the camera and saw a village up ahead "So that''s our first destination then, lets roll out." Farid directed them and they went to the village "Stop right here!" Farid commanded as Sav stepped right on the brakes, causing the Stryker to stop at a grinding halt "OK first off ow, second why stop here!" Arno asked Farid as he hit his head on something when the car stopped abruptly. Leaving a small lump on his head. "Charlie.." Farid started "Does this car have something akin to invisibility?" he asked "Yes, it should be one of the buttons at the front right next to the steering wheel." Charlie answered as he wondered why "Sav press it." He commanded, Sav took sometime before he found the button and pressed it "OK everyone exit the vehicle." Everyone got of the car as he ordered. The car is completely invisible with the exception of the Felhoods whose helmets can see the outline of the vehicle "Everyone follow me into town, I''m not doing first contact situations alone." he stated as the rest followed with varying degrees of unease First contact will work or fail but ont thing is for certain, it will be crazy with the Felhoods personalities Internal Monologue Farid POV ''You know what, sometimes I hate being a leader'' I thought ''When it comes to these guys'' I looked back ''Normal is not in their dictionary, neither is impossible'' I mused As we walked toward the village, I noticed Charlie looking somewhere else. That is a sign I know isn''t good "Charlie, don''t you dare wander off." I demanded When Charlie looks somewhere other than what he focuses on, sooner or later something will catch his interest and he will wander. Going to the thing that caught his interest and then find another thing will catch his interest. The process will repeat until he gets lost and we have to find him. In short, childish curiosity in a grown up body. Would''ve been funny for bystanders but for friends and partners of the guy, a complete headache. "Minor question." I heard Akira say "What if the town doesn''t have a mayor or leader?" he asks. Starting to worry on something on his mind "Then we disguise ourselves as travelers and asks for a room in an inn or a tavern." Arno shouted, not noticing how we can disguise ourselves as travelers with otherworldly clothing and weapons "And how do you propose we do that!" Seung-Heon exclaimed.pointing out our weapons and our clothing isn''t exactly fitting for this world Charlie raised his hand up "I might have found cloaks on the way here and grabbed them" he said as he pulled out said cloaks "Perfect." Sav said, already wanting to try the cloaks, It isn''t long before we got to a vantage We were on top of a hill the overlooks the village, we spotted a church in the middle of the village, people going around doing their jobs and a stone wall surrounding the village with the local militia doing patrols on the wall "Oh look an eagle" Charlie said as he pointed up, true enough there was an eagle circling around the hill for reasons unknown to me "We should put on our cloaks now" I said. We put on our cloaks and we walked toward the gate "We should look like assassins" Charlie said out of blue, making me and the other guys look at him with questioning looks "Why?" we all questioned Charlie who just shrugged in response "I''m just saying, hunting down bandits with hoods that shadow your eyes sounds cool, especially if there is some corrupt people and they have heard about some hooded Grim Reaper coming to hunt them" he answered, already musing about the thought "What makes you think there are bandits" Sav asked, Charlie gave him the a look that is saying ''Are you an Idiot'' "There stone walls around the village, on the walls there a bunch of medieval aged weapons" We all looked to the wall where Charlie was pointing at as he ranted "The guards on the wall have swords and other melee weapons, there are ballistae on walls and they are still using horse drawn carriages" He kept on ranting as he pointed to a horse-drawn carriage entering the village "It looks as if we are stuck in a medieval age and like that age, there HAVE to be bandits even if it''s small groups, There have to be bandits" Charlie finished his rant as he looked to Sav, who just listened to his rant with annoyance, Charlie noticed it and smacked him in the head "Think about it, if we knock every bandit we encounter unconscious then we can take their money and their stuff" Charlie suggested, his eyes becoming dollar signs as he kept on thinking about it " We could sell it, make a name for ourselves as merchants with mythic items that can help the populace and probably make a connection with the locals, become very rich in our world." As Charlie was ranting about his ''get rich'' plan in this world we are already at the front of the gate. We entered the village with Charlie stopping his rant and following. When we entered we were subjected to looks, most of them were suspicious, but we made it to what we think is an inn without much trouble. We rented two rooms and put our items in those rooms If you wonder how we got money, let''s just say we found a broken carriage on the way here from the Stryker and it held a bunch of coins We divided the rooms randomly. Currently I''m stuck with Arno and Sav in room 1. The other group composed of Charlie, Akira and Seung-Heon, are the most chaotic when together. We decided to go to the other just to see what they were doing, and possibly stop what chaos they''re causing. Surprisingly, the room was extremely quiet, and there are no signs of damage, yet anyway. Seung-Heon''s just on the bed. Just reading something on his phone. Akira is over at their bags, rummaging through them and Charlie is at a desk, playing games on the laptop he brought. "Hey guys." Me, Arno and Sav said, group 2 all stopped what they were doing and stared at us "Hey" They responded, going back to their current activities. "Are you guys up for more exploration?" I asked, they stopped and looked at me before leaving their current activities "We got nothing to do anyway" Seung-Heon responded as he got up from the bed "It''s better than doing our current activities" Said Akira who found what he was looking for, a datapad he got from Charlie "We can learn more about his place." Charlie said. Bringing out recording devices, a hidden camera included So we went out of the tavern helmetless and split up. While I was wandering around the town to figure out the world we are in I remembered there was a church in town. When I went to the church I saw the symbol of their religion. A protestant cross underneath a bigger cross whose ends look like they''ve bladed and wings sprouting from both sides of the crossesThis content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. after asking some people about this. I found out the church was part of an organization called The Order of the Chief God. They are anti-monster organization dedicated to... well killing monsters, they preach that monsters are enemies of mankind. They are beings that corrupt and will lead to mankinds downfall. My thought went back to the guy who was getting f***ed by a slime. I''m starting to wonder what kind of corruption they were talking about I got dragged in to a mass and i have to practically hear the priest just preach about how the Chief God has created the world and that it''s Humanity''s duty to slay the monsters who were considered mistakes of the Chief God It lasted for a hour. A whole hour of pretending to pray to a deity I don''t even worship lest I get charged for heresy considering how fanatical these people are So after the praying session I went back to the inn to see my friends. They were at a nearby table, I went there sat with them "Have you guys found anything interesting?" I asked tiredly. The praying session I went through was headache inducing to non-followers of the religion "Mate what''s wrong, you look stressed?" Charlie asked, concerned about the fact I''m holding my head in pain and looked tired as hell "I was forced to join a praying session to a deity I don''t even worship." I said. Causing Charlie to nod his head "I see." He said "Have you found something about this religion." He asked I told them about the religion that the village worships and my friends were laughing at what happened to me "I hate you guys." I said annoyed that they were laughing at my pain "Consider this payback for all the times you teased us about problems we shouldn''t be in." Sav said as he drank down his tankard of what I assume to be ale "Yeah all of us has something on each other." Charlie started with a mischievous "Remember the time Arno was really sleepy when we went camping and he accidently went to a bear cave and slept on the bear." He said smiling "Oh yeah, didn''t he run out of the cave holding baby bears thinking they were stuffed toys." as Akira said that, Arno started to scratch the back his head in embarrassment while me and the rest laughed "Yeah that wasn''t a good memory for me." Arno said "What about the time we forced Seung-Heon to eat chocolate" He said but me and the others didn''t get what he said "What are you talking about." Seung-Heon asked "There was chili inside the chocolate." Arno said and the rest finally remembered and laughed, with the exception of Seung-Heon who shuddered at the memory "Didn''t he scream ''I''M NOT USED TO THIS LEVEL OF SPICE'' while throwing the chocolate down and stomping it." Sav said as he chuckled "Don''t think you''re exempted from this." Seung-Heon said angrily before he smirked "I remembered the time you made a bet with us about the absolute choice from that Noucome anime isn''t that bad until we forced you to choose decisions." He said as everyone else but Sav laughed at that "That was funny." I said between laughs "I mean, our classmates were confused as to why we keep writing paper and shown them to Sav." I said as I kept laughing "Well what about-" I was about to say something about Charlie before everything went silent in the tavern. We looked to the door and saw what caused the silence A man wearing regal clothing surrounded by guards came in, he has kept blonde hair and blue eyes. From the looks of everyone else in this room, I can tell he wasn''t very well liked and my friends can tell the same He looked toward everyone in the tavern, looking at us as if we were below him. His eyes held arrogance and an air of superiority practically oozed off the guy That was when he spotted our table and walked towards it, his guards following him. He stopped in front of our table and looked at us with disgust before he turned to his guards. "Get these Plebs off my table." He ordered them as the guards swiped our tankards and food off the table and pulled us away from it. The guy was practically smirking as he saw us get dragged away. We were practically on the floor by the end of it There was one unspoken rule when it came to us. You mess with one of us, prepare for an attack on all sides. Oh and if you mess with us while we are having fun, prepare for very painful retribution. It also doesn''t help when said people are practically physically superior to you in every way I looked toward the others and I moved my head toward the guards. They nodded at my plan. So we all stood up and walked towards the guy who i assumed to be an important noble. "Kill this rat." He ordered the guards as they went toward with their weapons at hand. There were 5 guards walking before Charlie just dashed past me tackled one of the guards, crashing both them toward a nearby table, whose occupants left, before Charlie started pummeling the guard Two of the other guards tried to help their friend before he got stopped by Arno and Akira. Arno grabbed his victim''s neck and lifted him up before throwing him toward the bar counter. when he the shelves there was loud crack resounded throughout the entire before Arno decided to go behind the bar make sure he isn''t dead The guard Akira was facing swung his sword overhead to hit Akira, who swiftly dodged, The guard tried to attack Akira in every direction only for him to dodge. In his final hope, he thrusted his sword toward Akira who grabbed the sword and crushed it, much to awe of onlookers and to the horror of the guard and the noble. Akira gave a light punch, in trans-human standards, the guard coughed before receiving a very hard right hook to the face courtesy of Akira before he grabbed the guards head slammed it to the ground. The two remaining guards decided to attack me. They charged at me only to be grabbed by Sav and Seung-Heon, the two looked at each other and smirked before throwing the guards towards each other. When their helmets made impact, we can hear the sound of cracking before the two dropped to the ground. One of guards tried to reach for his weapon, only for his hand to be stomped on by Sav before he knocked the Guard out "Useless guards!" I heard the noble shout before I grabbed him "You rat let go of me!" He shouted at me as he attempted to get out of my grip "You should apologize to us, and the others who have probably had enough of your attitude." I said in a cold tone, before the noble scoffed "You think I, Thomas of the fluent Chapelle family would listen to some pleb." He announced thinking I would probably back off because of his name, but it had no effect I headbutted him, not strong enough to break bones but strong enough to leave a bruise. He screamed in pain before I looked him in the eye. My eyes are emotionless, only filled with an objective. To kick this guy out of here "You are an asshole." I said simply " Don''t ever bother anyone here again. Because if you do... well expect some damn resistance." I warned before gesturing to my friends to throw them out. They nodded and picked up the guards before all of us threw the noble and his guards out. "I''LL HAVE YOU EXECUTED YOU FILTH!" the noble yelled at us. We shook our heads at his attempt to scare us. We went back inside just hear everyone cheering. I asked the bartender what did noble do. He told us he was constantly abusing the customers, From hitting the regulars for something that was insulting to him and jailing the people that tried to resist against him. This is the main reason why I hate medieval worlds. There''s just bound to be corruption only to be justified as ''It is their right'' or some bullshit like that. We had our meals and drinks back for free considering we did them favor and the atmosphere in Tavern was very cheerful When we finished our meals we went back to our respective rooms. We dressed up in our sleepwear before going to sleep, But I had to ask one last question from Arno and Sav "Hey guys." I started "Yeah?" They responded "You think anything in this world is going to be normal?" I asked, they thought about before Sav gave me an answer "Considering what we saw when we first stepped on this world, No." Sav answered with Arno nodding "All we can hope to do now is just hope it doesn''t get worst." Sav before realizing he just invoked murphy "No wait I take that back." Sav tried to take back his words but it was already said I sighed "I guess we should expect the worst tomorrow." I said to them as they nodded before all of us drifted off to sleep Little did they know something will happen not only to them but the village they''re staying in
