It was time to go home. Shado the Raging, Hawnt the Noisy and Fyre the Bitter had been dealt with. When we got back to Battleville, Shank was there smiling wide. He had successfully killed Gose the Grim in single combat. All of that time out of action was used to come up with strategies to take the cursed spirits out. "Did you get to see where Flaym the Wild went? He might have fled to one of the mountain ranges." I asked. "No. Your servants let him get away. It will be a hassle to track him down in the mountains." he grumbled. I sighed. "I've done it before. It's very annoying, but they tend to like caves and use black flames at night. Once you get close, it should not be a problem to take the curse spirit out." I said. He crossed his arms before gesturing to Shado. "Why is a curse spirit behind you?" he asked. "I purified him and forced him to serve me." I said. Shank looked really skeptical. "And all of us are supposed to believe you, right?" he said. I just nodded my head. "Alright. I'll keep an eye on him. If he does anything weird, I'll rip his throat out!" he warned us 2.
Just because I could, I walked through Battleville looking for a woman for Shado. I did promise a wife to all my other servants. There was a young woman that walked up to us as we entered the red light district of the town. It was only a few establishments on a single block, but there was a brothel, gambling den, bathhouse and massage parlor all on the street. There were also some streetwalkers and pimps walking around to do their own freelancing. The woman that approached us was one of the prostitutes that worked here from the clothes she was wearing. "You 2 look like you can use a nice bath. The girls and I can get all that dirt and grime off of you. For a bit extra, we'll play with you for a bit too." she cooed. That greeting set me off. She looked human. "Wait a minute. You can actually see my servant here?" I asked, gesturing over to Shado. She looked confused. "Yes. I can see him. The whole town can! He's covered in glowing blue paint!" I looked at him. "How'd you get so powerful. Do you know how many bandits we had to kill to be seen?" I whined. Not fair.
A smirk crossed his lips. "That's a kunai's plight, I guess. Way too small to be noticed." he teased. I rolled my eyes. "So, are you up for the offer?" He shrugged his shoulders. "I don't even understand what this female is saying. I don't use paint." he said. Sighing even deeper than before, I had to explain it to him. "This woman wants us to go to her bathhouse. Other females will wash us up. If you want me to, I can give them extra money and a female of your choice with let you rut around with them for a bit." His eyes widened. "Humans are very interesting. They just do this out in the open?" he remarked. "Not out in the open. They have places where they give baths to those who want to pay and are too lazy to clean themselves at their own dwelling places." I said, shaking my head. "Well, if it's my choice, I say we experience this to the fullest." Shado said. We followed the bath wench to the shop. I was entering for the first time. There were 5 girls working at the moment. I got undressed where they told me to. Shado shed his robes. The girls all looked at him hungrily.
