lust bound: The prostitute rank up system.-Chapter 130: Reward

James and Darius walked over the moment they saw Alaric.

" You’re bleeding," James said, and took out a white handkerchief, handing it to Alaric.

Alaric wiped the corner of his mouth, but he could still feel the buildup of blood in his throat.

" Fighting an A class wasn’t easy." Alaric swayed, Darius caught him on time.

"You’re injured?" Darius said. Alaric nodded.

" You should rest."

" Soon, so did you tally all those who fought?"

" Yes, I’ve organized the winners and the others," James answered.

" That’s good, I was planning on giving the top one an A-class awakener stones, the second B, and the third C . The others, you can just reward them as I said the other time, just limit them a little and don’t give them the expensive drinks for free, those will be for the ten percent discount, and it only applies to them, if they give it out, it’s cancelled. "

Alaric was trying to be as fast as he could. He reached into his pocket, took out the system’s key card, and gave it to Darius.

"Just a little further from the kitchen, next to the first corridor, there is a door I want you to go down there alone. You’ll find a cabinet under the reception desk. There are different awakener stones inside, pick the three for the winners, and the B-class awakener stones for all the guards. Oh and the body is in the flower bed, you’ll see it. "

Darius looked at him in surprise. There were too many stones to just give out, but what he didn’t know was that Alaric had gotten most of them from the dungeons in District Seventeen during all those dungeon raids. It had been the most exhausting time of his life.

"James call the healers!" Darius shouted when Alaric coughed up a lot of blood.

"Don’t forget to call the police. I’m going to be fine, there’s no need to..."

Alaric lost consciousness before he could complete the sentences. He wanted to reassure them but it seems they were going to panic either way.

....

" How is he?" Darius asked the healer. The brothel had two healers, but both of them were lower-level. They had tried but Alaric’s injuries just weren’t healing.

Kael had been looking from healer to healer when the current healer arrived. He had said he was sent by someone who knew Alaric. The man was short with glasses and was wearing a doctor’s coat. He was clearly both a professional doctor and healer.

" Most of his organs were ruptured, and it will take some time for the internal injuries to heal. His body is also experiencing chronic fatigue. What had been done to get this injured? "

"I don’t know, he was fighting someone stronger than him, he must have been injured during the fight, " Darius answered.

" Well that’s the weird part, he doesn’t have any external injuries except for one or two bruises that are already healing. "

Darius looked at Alaric in surprise. Just who in the world had he been fighting with, the attack was only internal. If Alaric had not coughed up blood he would have assumed the injury wasn’t serious since he looked completely fine when he approached them.

Right now, Alaric looked so pale in contrast to the red bedsheets around him. His face had most of its blood drained, hence he was as white as paper, but he still looked just as handsome, if not more beautiful. Alaric was really born to seduce.

" Is it very serious or will it heal?"

" You don’t have to worry about it, his body is healing on its own at an impeccable speed. I’ve healed most of the severe injuries and it’s the recovery that is going to be a test for him."

The doctor adjusted the drip running to Alaric’s hand.

" When will he wake up? "

" A week maybe, change the IV bag after it’s empty. I’ll come every two days for a check-up until he wakes up. "

Darius nodded.

" How much will you be charging us? " James asked.

The doctor smiled and shook his head.

" It’s fully paid you don’t have to worry about it. "

James wasn’t surprised , he just asked out of courtesy.

" Thank you."

Both James and Darius bowed to the doctor. They escorted him out until he got into the car and left.

" Is he okay?"

" Will Alaric be fine?"

" The blood was too much."

The moment they both got back into the brothel, they were bombarded by the other workers. They were all worried about Alaric.

" He’s fine you don’t have to worry, he just needs rest." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

They all accepted the explanation although reluctantly.

Darius walked to the group of awakeners who were clearly waiting for their reward.

" Will we be getting our reward, or was it false advertising?" one of the awakeners asked. He had been the one who had the most kills.

James stepped forward with a small notebook in hand.

" We’ll be giving rewards just as promised don’t worry. For the top three, you’ll be getting an additional reward. We’re just asking you to be patient since we are bringing them out in a few. "

James tried to placate them. He pointed out the top three who nodded.

" Hurry it up I want to see what you promised us. And where your owner he should be present? "

" Unfortunately, he is preoccupied at the moment, but don’t worry, you won’t be disappointed by what he left behind. "

Darius left the group and walked in the direction Alaric had pointed out to him. He stopped in front of the hallway and looked at the sidewalls. He noticed a small outline on the wall, which looked like it had been touched a lot, and the color was slightly faded compared to the other parts of the wall.

He touched the outline and it caved inside. There was a click, then the door opened suddenly, and Darius looked at the surprised place.

He had passed by the place so many times but he hadn’t noticed there was a door on the wall. It had been seamlessly blended into the walls.

The door closed behind him as he descended the staircase. The place was dimly lit, which made it more mysterious and scandalous.

He arrived in front of the door at the end of the stairs. He swiped the key and it opened. The amount that was poured out of the room startled him. He entered and shut the door behind him fast. He had thought maybe the room was a BDSM room, but the man in front of him proved him wrong.

Darius understood why Alaric had not told anyone about the room, it was a miracle by itself.

He wanted to take a walk around, but he restrained himself; he was there to work and not look around. He went around the reception desk and kneeled down to look.

At the corner of the room were wooden drawers, and he could feel the awakener stone powers emitting from them. He noticed small writings on the drawers and leaned over to observe.

Each drawer was marked by its class. He pulled open the B-class drawer to take the awakener stones. Inside were almost fifty B-rank Awakener stones. Darius started to pick them with trembling hands.

Just how many dungeons had Alaric cleared to get this many? What he didn’t know was that thirty belonged to Alaric, while twenty were brought by the girls when they came to visit.

Alaric had not stipulated the price or the rank of the stones when he gave them the invitation. They had all come with B-class stones as if they had come to an agreement beforehand, but Alaric wasn’t one to complain.

The more the merrier since he needed a lot of stones anyway. Both for his use and for the customers to play around with when they came to visit.

Darius picked eight awakener stones and shut the drawer before he got tempted. He pulled open the A-class drawer, and there were five stones inside.

He picked one and closed it. At least the number wasn’t much, Darius thought.

He opened the C-class drawer. It was almost full to the brim with awakener stones. He picked one and closed it.

Darius looked around the basement one last time before closing the door behind him. He just hoped Alaric would allow him to enter even once, just to get the feeling of being surrounded by Mama safely.

" Did you bring them?" James asked, and Darius nodded. The awakeners were clearly waiting for him eagerly. Everyone was looking at Darius to see what he would give them.

He took out three small gift boxes and placed them in front of the table. He had rushed to the utility room and picked the gift boxes for the stones. He didn’t want to give them barehanded.

"Alaric promised the top three a reward. The extra rewards were awakener stones," James started.

" Just awakener stones, I hope it’s worth it since I don’t want to think I wasted my time," the second-ranked said.
