The Branded Female Fencer

"Primuse, I'm sorry. Let me go out with you."

"No, Mr. Ranili is the one. I'm sorry I'm late. You must still be tired from work today.

"I don't have so many customers on me today... so I really need to be more aggressive. With all those beautiful women inside, it's going to be hard to get older like me..."

"I don't think so..."

Ranili and Primuse proceed through the tarram, which began to fog thinly. They had just rushed out to buy the goods they needed for the whorehouse. We stayed up late, but it was their job to respond to the guests' demands. Usually there are people who work downstairs, but they stay up late, which means that the whorehouse is run by a minimum number of people. So he went out to the city of Tarham to buy out with his free hands of Ranili and Primuse. If Tarram went to the centre, there was always a shop open day and night.

Sure, the whores who strive for the golden purity hall are such a beautiful assortment of dazzling women, but just because they are in it is enough honor in Tarram. Not that I was trained as a whore at all, much less a scrutiny to enter a whorehouse, if I were not to be young. Ranili, who suddenly entered the whorehouse in it, made her ask enough about her qualities.

Primse doesn't know the circumstances in detail either, but apparently she lost her partner. So you lost your place to go back to this city? It's a very common story in Tarram, but one thing that's different from normal is, does she mean Banshee, not human? A half spirit, a half demon, says she has the charm to attract heterosexuals even if she does nothing. Anyone who is a whore wants the ability to get their hands out of her throat, but the terms of the contract mean that such powers are sealed in the Golden Purity Hall and not used at all, so it would be due to her efforts that Ranili is able to manage to do so.

A year and a little after Ranili came. I managed to be independent. Primuse has been much longer since I served Formination, but I had respect for Ranili, who made me try to be independent in a year. Raniri also actively helps me with the downwork of buyouts and other things that I don't have to do if they are true. This older woman, Primuse, was often acting together as a good talker.

"Are you used to the golden purity hall?

"Work is tough, but learning from upbringing to manipulation is still like a mountain, so you'll never get tired of it. Tomorrow we'll have to keep one management book in mind."

"Is that what customers like?

"Yeah, because you're a big mouth customer. If you want to talk, you can't keep up with the conversation without a lot of knowledge. I have to pick up the book I asked for first thing tomorrow morning."

"You're trying."

"Yeah... but every day was too glaring and oblivious, but I, I don't know what I'm doing this for. Especially before this..."

So by jamming the words, Primse guessed the circumstances, but couldn't help but ask. Although Primse was also a lady, she was also a topic of concern, and above all she got the opportunity to talk about her daughter being in Ranili because she was close to her age. I couldn't help but ask, thinking it was rude.

"Excuse me. I noticed this last time... that, uh, your daughter needed you for this previous customer?

"... I knew you'd noticed."

Ranili exhaled and looked at Primse with sorrow.

"Seems stupid to a kid my daughter's age. Why, could you ask?

"Yeah, sure."

"You're my daughter, you have qualities as a witch. That's why I sent him out for training shortly after I was mindful, but he told me I wouldn't see him until he was at least an adult. That's why I didn't even know what I was doing until now. I left the land where I lived, so I couldn't even get in touch."

"We ran into each other last time?

"Yes, I didn't expect that."

The look on Ranili's face was clear. She is a shadowier woman than her ex, but her expression is darker. It is likely to dissolve in the darkness of Tarram.

"I've been saved by a golden purity hall, and now I'm both attached and proud of my job. Besides, I've never thought I'd hate to be a woman. But it's something you can see at a glance even if you haven't seen it for a long time. The moment I saw my daughter's face, I wondered what I was doing. As a mother I was ashamed of myself, even if I wasn't ashamed of myself"

"I'm sorry, Primuse. I'm not looking down on you whores. But I really don't think I should stay like this, given my daughter's state of mind."

"Can I have some free time?

Lanili was stuck in words and even more annoyed.

"That's... I don't know. At least I want to have a chance to talk to my daughter. But that face of my daughter when you saw me. He had a mixed look of surprise and contempt. I wonder if my daughter would listen to me."

"It's okay. Whatever the circumstances, are mothers and children connected by love? I'm an abandoned person, but I still want to see my mother. I'm sure your daughter is the same."

"Really?

"Be confident. Otherwise, it won't get any better."

Primuse urged Ranili to cheer up. Even though he knew it was a relief, Ranili could not help but thank Primse for her concern. And the moment he thought his mind was clearer, Ranili was realizing something was wrong with his surroundings.

"Primuse... could this fog have been so deep?

"Uh... no, not like this. Funny, this street has a front tower with lights on at night and I can't see that either. It's the first time I've never seen a light in a fog."

"Does Tarram have fog?

"Night fog comes out occasionally, but it's also a flash because it's not a clay. Never in my memory has there been so much fog that my vision is blocked"

"... and this unpleasant feeling..."

If you notice, the number of people passing through the perimeter is also decreasing. And from there, I could hear a little scream. At the time I felt the anomaly, the thick fog grew toward both of us. Primuse stood on the motion that made him wonder if it was the head of a snake or the tip of a plant.
