Chapter 55

The next days Arthur spent training during the day, and fucking girls in the night-club at night. He wanted to get as strong as possible for the upcoming tournament.

“Damn, these fire wings look awesome.” Arthur said.

Two fire wings stood behind his back, flapping around, and making him able to fly. He still could not use these wings for transportation, but to use them in a fight was fine.

It made him faster, which also meant stronger attacks as well. Mages would not hit him using their spells.

Anyway, after a hard day of training, and the last day before leaving, Arthur went to the night-club for a good night.

The girls there seemed to know him, and some even offered themselves for the night.

“Can we go to the private room tonight, captain?” a woman said.

“You went last time. We also want our turn.”

There were other men inside the club, and they could not understand the fixation on Arthur. Some girls waited for him to come all week.

“Don’t worry, there’s room for you all. Come.”

After he said that, the girls were all smiles. They made a straight line and followed to the private room. A fun night, where they fucked for hours, and everyone went home satisfied.

“Ahhhh, please keep going.”

“Me now, me. I want the dick.”

It was like a war for Arthur’s body, but he endured it, and fought against all the girls on the bed, obviously.

.

“Come back anytime, captain. We will be waiting.”

Arthur left and went back to his room. The inn was quiet as a desert, as everyone else was already sleeping comfortably on their beds.

With a few steps, Arthur got inside his room, took a quick shower, grabbed his blankets, and wrapped himself. A good night of sleep after so much training.

The next day would be chaotic. Arthur woke early in the morning to have enough time to do his things. He went downstairs and ate his breakfast.

Reno would wait for all of them at the port where their ship would leave. Arthur said goodbyes to everyone on the crew.

“The tournament is on Ashew, all right? It is a city somewhat far from here. You can rest today and prepare your things, and go tomorrow.” Arthur said.

Kai listened to everything carefully to not mess things up. They planned on following Arthur to the city where the tournament was happening. If anything went wrong, his crew was there to help him.

The thing is, they could not leave on the same day, because it was too obvious.

“Be careful out there, captain.”

“I will. You too, Kai. After all of this is over, we will officially start our training, I promise you.”

Arthur said goodbye to all the crew members and left. He went directly to the port where Runo awaited him. The others were already there, and the only one left was Arthur.

“You’re finally here. Let’s go, we cannot lose much time.”

The ship looked like any other ship, so Arthur saw no problems on it and hopped inside. Phil also did the same and chatted with Arthur.

“What’s up?”

“Hey, Phil. Long time no see.”

Phil got closer to Arthur, and whispered in his ears, “Actually, I saw you yesterday, my brother. Leaving a night-club. Hehehe, you’re a real man that I can tell.”

“Shh, don’t say it aloud or people may think wrong things about me. I work there serving drinks.”

“Surely that’s what you do.” Phil said, with a clear smirk on his face.

Arthur saw his face and laughed. Phil was a funny guy, and it was nice to have him around to make things more casual.

The journey would take a long time, and there weren’t many things one could do inside the ship. Arthur brought a few books to pass the time. He was sure he made the right choice after the 5th day of traveling.

“So boring…”

For 14 days, all Arthur did was read, eat, and sleep. Well, Phil had come to his room a few times, and they drank beers and talked about lots of things.

It was a good way to change the routine from time to time, and if Phil wasn’t there, it would surely be a lot more boring.

The happiness Arthur felt the day Ashew City was in their sight was indescribable. He could not endure more time inside a ship.

“Whoa, are you seeing all these people?”

First, Ashew was an immense city. In Arthur’s mind, that place looked like the capital, or something like that.

But now there were even more people to watch the tournament. The port was packed up with ships, and the streets could barely fit all these people walking around, and that is with the tournament yet to start.

“We will stay in a place where only the fighters can go. All the other inns are full, anyway.” Runo said.

No one had complaints about that, and they all followed him through the streets.

The first challenge was to walk without bumping into people. Arthur was sure he did that lots of times.

“This is where we will stay? It’s huge!” Cheryl said.

Runo guided them to the hotel where all fighters would stay. It had 6 floors, and an immense courtyard with pools and benches near trees. The place looked incredible.

Arthur chose the sixth floor. He felt it was the safest place for a room, as he could jump from the window and land without problems. Arthur could even use his wings and fly out the window.

It was a fact that Arthur did not trust Runo after knowing what he did. The best thing should be to watch his every move.

They all went to their rooms and stored most of their stuff. Arthur saw some other people in the halls, presumably the other fighters that would take part in the tournament.

He did not see anyone on a crazy level or anything like that. Maybe it would not be hard for him to win, although he had no motivation to do so. Arthur agreed to go there because Runo said something about beautiful ladies from another kingdom.

It could be Jane, Wisa, and the others. There was no reason to no go there, as it could be a chance to meet up with his friends. He also needed to capture Runo, so being that close to him could be a good thing.

Anyway, after getting all of his stuff inside his room, Arthur went on an exploration trip to find more information about his friends.

If people from another kingdom were there, inside the city, someone had to know. With his mask and cloak, Arthur went to a few dark alleys and beat up some thugs to see if anyone knew about something.

“I don’t know anything about that. I swear!”

The first did not know, neither the second and the third. Arthur spent hours interrogating people, and no one knew a thing. Was Reno lying to him? Or was it a secret information that no one knew expect him?

It seemed nothing was working out for him until he spotted two people talking to each other in an alley.

“Did you hear about these girls from another kingdom? They will not take part in the tournament.”

“Really? I was hoping to see them here.”

“Yeah. It turns out they had to return to their school in a hurry.”

“School? What is t
