Chapter 780: The Capture Target on Pleasure Street
Without the harassment from the Kali Familia Amazons, Broly's life became peaceful once again.
But on this day, a girl from the Takemikazuchi Familia came seeking him out.
"Mr. Broly..."
Yamato Matt, sitting in the reception room waiting, immediately stood up and called out respectfully upon seeing the Saiyan boy walk out.
"It's been a while, Miss Matt. I heard from Bell that you're looking for me for something. I wonder what it is?"
Broly picked up Miss Adi, who was getting some air on the single sofa, moved her to the long chair beside it, sat down, and asked the kimono-clad girl standing opposite.
"The situation is like this..."
Originally, the Takemikazuchi Familia was a Familia in the Far Eastern Island Nation; they only relocated to Orario some years ago.
And two days ago, Yamato Matt heard that in the Pleasure Street area, a figure had appeared who was suspected to be a childhood playmate of hers and Hitachi Chigusa and the others from their time in the Far Eastern Island Nation.
"Of course, a golden-haired, blue-eyed fox person girl is very rare, but not non-existent, so I'm also not certain if the other party is my former friend.
I heard Bell say that you, Mr. Broly, have had dealings with the Ishtar Familia on Pleasure Street, and even done some business with them..."
"I have."
Broly nodded. Besides the human trafficking business, there was also the wine business.
"So, I want to request Mr. Broly, I wonder if you could use your connections with the Ishtar Familia on Pleasure Street to investigate the situation of the fox person girl who appeared there? I want to know if she is my former good friend.
Hmm, that good friend of mine was born into a prominent family in the Far Eastern Island Nation. If she really fell into the wind and dust because of something, then as her friend, I really cannot just watch with open eyes.
Mr. Broly, I know I may not be able to repay what you need, but please, I beg you!"
As Yamato Matt spoke, she performed dogeza right there beside him, assuming the sincere posture of someone asking for a favor.
"No need for that. You often bring Bell to play; it's just helping you inquire about one person's news. I think my acquaintances on the Ishtar Familia side should be willing to sell me this face."
Broly helped Yamato Matt up, slightly changed his daily schedule, greeted the Fool Miss, and today did not go to the Magic Laboratory to research the Dead Bone Vitality Magic with her.
In the afternoon, the Soma Familia happened to need to deliver a batch of new wine to the Ishtar Familia, so Broly took the initiative to go over and take on this job.
"Eh, isn't this the False Newbie Little Brother? It's actually you coming to deliver goods to us?"
After the War Game, Broly had gained some fame. Although the Gods' Conference held once every three months had already convened once before this, the gods who loved a spectacle still gave him a nickname fitting his actual situation.
Lv. 1 yet he directly took down the entire Apollo Familia head-on; his Adventurer level was like a fraud. Therefore, recently, a portion of the gods in Orario called him "False Newbie" and "Fraudulent Newbie".
"Besides the wine, do you want to deliver something else? Like your own self-produced Sticky O Liquid?"
Aisha licked her lips. The shota had grown into a youth; although he was still a half-grown boy, this kind of green, unripe feeling just happened to suit her taste.
"Very regrettable, Miss Aisha, I don't have that kind of gift you want here."
Broly directly refused.
"That really is a pity~"
Aisha showed a regretful expression, but just as she prepared to leave to conduct tonight's man-hunting action, she was stopped by Broly.
"Didn't you say there were no gifts?"
"I have some other matters I want to ask Miss Aisha to help with."
"I don't help for free."
"Rest assured, no free ride. I'll pay."
"But I'm not short on money, only short on little men who can make me happy. What to do?"
"Then I'll give you a session of my personal massage technique. Guaranteed to make you experience extreme physical pleasure."
To help Yamato Matt inquire about news, Broly decided to sell his own craftsmanship.
"That really makes one look forward to it!"
Aisha licked her lips and took Broly to her room.
"So, what do you want me to help with?"
After entering the room, Aisha took off the thin silk clothes on her body, assuming a posture ready to strip and do it at any time, and asked directly.
"I want to ask Miss Aisha to help me inquire about a person's news on this Pleasure Street side."
"What person?"
"A golden-haired, blue-eyed fox person girl."
"Hm?"
The hungry expression on Aisha's face stalled.
"Name?"
"True name is Mikoto Sanjouno, but here, I'm not sure what the other party's name would be, nor am I sure if she is here.
So, Miss Aisha, you only need to tell me where all the golden-haired, blue-eyed fox person girls on Pleasure Street are, and then I'll go take a look myself."
"Can I ask what the specific relationship is between you and the person you're inquiring about?"
"No relationship. Just a friend of mine asked me to help inquire."
Broly told the truth, explaining Yamato Matt's request slightly to the prostitute before him.
"Judging by Miss Aisha's reaction, you should know a fox person girl with this name, right."
Broly spoke with an affirmative tone, stating a questioning sentence.
"Hmm, I know her. The person you're helping someone else inquire about happens to be the one I'm responsible for taking care of."
Aisha didn't deny it.
"Eh, what a coincidence?!"
Broly was somewhat surprised; he didn't expect to get a result directly.
"I wonder if you can arrange for her to meet my friend?"
Then, he asked again.
"Meeting is no problem."
Aisha merely thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Then I'll have my friend come over."
As it happened, Yamato Matt was also coming along to the Pleasure Street side tonight.
Broly took out a Communication Crystal and made contact; Yamato Matt and Chigusa hurried over quickly.
"I'll take you there."
After meeting up with Yamato Matt and the others, Aisha familiarly led the group to the Connected Building linked to her own Familia Building.
And this place was a men's Gold Cave, the Pleasure Street's Top Venue, commonly known as a High-class Brothel.
"Thump thump thump..."
The door was knocked upon.
"Chunji, are you in there?"
"Sister Aisha, I'm here. Is there a Customer who needs me to attend to them?"
A questioning voice came from inside the room, soft just like cotton.
"Lady Chunji!"
Yamato Matt directly slid the door open and rushed in; Aisha didn't stop him either.
"Eh, Matt, Chigusa, why are you two here?"
The Fox Person girl wearing a kimono was embraced around the neck by Yamato Matt; she was pounced onto and sat on the ground, her expression showing some surprise, as if she hadn't expected to see her childhood Playmate here.
"We heard a gold-haired, blue-eyed Fox Person girl had appeared here, and a Fox Person with such an appearance is very rare, so we entrusted Mr. Broly to help inquire; we didn't expect it to really be you."
Yamato Matt gave an explanation, then asked with some confusion: "Chunji, what happened to your Family? Why would you, a Noble Daughter, fall to Orario's Pleasure Street side and engage in this kind of... work serving men?"
"Five years ago, I accidentally ate a divine offering someone sent to be presented to Lord Amaterasu, causing my father, an official responsible for serving Lord Amaterasu's affairs, to fly into a thunderous rage, whereupon he severed our father-daughter relationship and drove me out of the Home."
"Afterward, I was taken in and taken away by a kind Pallum Customer who presented the divine offering; but on the road of being taken away, we encountered a Half-beast Monster attack, and just when I thought I would be killed by the monster, a group of Thief gentlemen saved me."
"Upon learning I was a virgin, they sold me to Slave Traders..."
The Fox Person girl did not conceal her situation; in her Narration, she drifted and wandered all the way, crossed oceans, and was sold to Orario's Pleasure Street.
"In the end, the one who took me in was Lady Ishtar."
The girl's Fox Tail swayed left and right behind her Butt, showing her current happy Mood.
"Ah, Lady Chunji, then you must have suffered a lot, right?"
"Although I've gone hungry on the road, it doesn't count as too much suffering..."
As a high-quality Commodity, she was still properly fed by the Slave Traders.
"And after joining the Ishtar Familia, I came to know Sister Aisha; she's a Very Good person, always taking care of me."
The Fox Person girl's nature was comparatively soft; in Childhood, after being abducted, she didn't put up much Resistance either, which let her drift and wander until being sold to Orario Until Now, without suffering Too Many hardships.
The only hardship was probably the process of being trained into an apprentice Prostitute pleasing men, where she would be struck on the palms with a Shakujo by the teaching Mom-san.
But also because her looks were good enough, ruining her body would equal Destruction of the Commodity, so it was merely some slight flesh-and-blood pain.
"Even if you didn't suffer much, for you, Lady Chunji, to be here in the Pleasure Street now is still too humiliating; no, I'm taking you away from here!"
Yamato Matt pulled up the Fox Person girl, but before she could rise, a hand pressed down on her Shoulder.
"I'm just helping out, bringing you all, as Chunji's friends, to see Chunji; I never said you could take Chunji away!"
Aisha's Lv. 3 arm strength made Yamato Matt, whose Level was only Lv. 2, completely unable to rise.
"Ah, we're willing to pay, to redeem Lady Chunji."
Chigusa hurriedly said.
Wanting to take away a prostitute who isn't a free person from the Pleasure Street basically equals robbing money in broad daylight.
And behind the Pleasure Street stands the A-rank Major Familia, Ishtar Familia, backing it.
Yamato Matt and the others also didn't have the confidence to directly break the rules here.
So, they had made some preparations; the redemption money for their childhood Playmate was their preparation on that side.
"When Chunji was taken over by our Ishtar Familia, her value was Fifty Million Valis; can you all come up with this money?"
"Ah, this..."
Yamato Matt and Chigusa showed difficulty on their faces; teaming up with Bell raised their party's drop rate and increased their Income; previously betting on the Hestia Familia to win also earned them quite a lot of Valis.
But even so, scraping together everything, they could at most gather Four Million Valis; compared to Fifty Million Valis, they didn't even have one-tenth.
"Moreover, this is only the purchase price when we Ishtar Familia bought Chunji in; and now this Child's value has already far exceeded this figure."
"Need... Five Hundred Million Valis?"
Chigusa looked at the Amazonian woman before her making a palm-out Gesture, her voice trembling as she asked.
"No, it's Five Billion Valis!"
However, Aisha's answer plunged them into deeper Despair.
This was a terrifying figure that even if they sold their entire Familia, they absolutely could not come up with.
"How could it be this much..."
Yamato Matt loudly questioned.
"That's still saying less; Chunji has this value."
Actually it's Impossible to be allowed to redeem her; the reason Aisha quoted a high price was still to make This Group know difficulty and retreat.
"Since it's like this, even if it means using force..."
Yamato Matt wanted to draw her Sword, but her sword-holding hand was instantly pressed down.
"Wanting to use force here, I advise you to best Consider carefully."
Aisha kicked out One Kick; Yamato Matt flew out and Smashed into the wall behind her.
"Matt..."
The fox-girl ran over nervously, checking on Yamato Matt's condition.
Upon discovering Yamato Matt could still climb up, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She knew this was Aisha-nee, who always looked after her, showing mercy to her friend.
"Rest assured, *cough cough*, Lady Chunji, even if I have to risk my life, I……"
"Matt, you and Chigusa should just forget about me, leave here."
Yamato Matt's words hadn't finished when the fox-girl directly interrupted.
"I'm actually doing not bad here, tonight being able to see you two, my old friends, I'm already completely satisfied."
The fox-girl returned to Aisha's side.
"Understand? You have no money to ransom Chunji, as for using force, the only ones who'll suffer are you yourselves who lack sufficient strength.
Originally if you wanted to see Chunji you'd need to pay tens of thousands of Valis as a meeting fee, but for the sake of you being this child's friends, tonight I won't charge you."
Aisha pulled the fox-girl behind her.
"Now, meeting time's over, you should go back."
She said to Yamato Matt and Hitachi Chigusa.
Yamato Matt and Hitachi Chigusa were very conflicted.
Doing not bad, which prostitute can do not bad?
Oh, except for the uninhibited Amazon battle courtesans, but Chunji isn't that kind of battle courtesan.
Both of them could tell, their friend wanted to leave with them, but forced by reality……
Five billion Valis ransom fee, they simply couldn't afford it.
As for using martial force, they also couldn't possibly be a match for the Ishtar Familia.
Chunji this is not wanting to implicate them because of her own situation……
But just like this accept their childhood playmate, continue being a prostitute here on Pleasure Street?
"Mr. Broly……"
Although knowing this was very excessive, Yamato Matt still turned her pleading gaze toward the only Saiyan youth present who might solve her friend's ransom problem.
"Five billion Valis ransom fee huh, this money I can help pay."
But before Yamato Matt could speak her request, Broly spoke a step ahead.
【Discovered new capture target, Mikoto Sanjouno, current happiness value 3】
Even without this prompt, Broly might have helped Yamato Matt and the others, but absolutely not this proactively.
And five billion Valis, exchange for a Crystal Palace acknowledged capture target, is this a loss?
In Broly's view, it's not a loss.
Anyway, this world's Valis, he earns quite easily.
And money this kind of thing, is just for spending.
And after Broly finished speaking, the four girls in the room all had their mouths wide open.
Yamato Matt and Hitachi Chigusa were moved.
Chunji was unexpected that someone would actually be willing to pay this much money, to help Yamato Matt and them ransom her.
As for Aisha, she was somewhat confused, which friendship can be worth five billion Valis?
This is money, not O Liquid you can just randomly mess around and get a handful of!
"What's wrong, Miss Aisha, is the ransom fee still not enough?"
Broly looked at the other party's surprised expression, and couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Uh, this isn't a matter of whether the ransom fee is enough……"
Aisha irritably scratched her head.
"Forget it, since you can pay this much, I'll tell you the truth, Ishtar Familia's prostitutes, even I can be ransomed and bought, but just this child Chunji, absolutely cannot be ransomed and bought."
"Why?"
"The specifics involve our Familia's secrets, inconvenient to tell you, but what I can tell you is, Lady Ishtar values this child Chunji very much, she absolutely won't let go and let Chunji leave our Familia."
Being valued by a Main God is a good thing, but being valued by a Main God and still being a prostitute, this is a bit subtle.
However, considering the Goddess Ishtar, with the lewd reputation of the 'Goddess of Love', this kind of thing making a valued child be a prostitute, seems not hard to understand either.
Sexual behavior, to this Goddess, isn't an unspeakable matter, but a means to pursue carnal pleasure, a necessary process of procreating life, something worthy of praise.
