Chapter 401 The Mermaid Came
"Hold on. What about this thief? What do we know about them? Where was it stolen from? Were there any clues left behind? I think that figuring out this should come first, right?" I asked, and the King cleared his throat uncomfortably.
"Gloria can fill you in on everything, but there is no need to rush into this! You only just arrived! Would it not be better to pick this up in the morning?" King James asked me, but I shook my head.
This fish was suspect, but I had no proof, but I also didn\'t plan on staying that long. The sooner I could get this done, the better. I just needed to look at the crystal cave, but I needed to wait for Lillia to get back with the information.
I also wanted to spend more time with Mati, but not in this place. She could also sense the wrongness here, but I couldn\'t put my finger on it.
"No, I would like to start now if possible," I said, and King James nodded before waving his hand.
Gloria came over and took me by the arm, leading me out of the room and down the hall. We went down a few flights of stairs before coming to a stop in front of a door. Gloria took out a key and unlocked it before motioning for me to go inside.
The room was large, and there was gold and numerous magical items. This must be the Vault that the King had spoken of.
"This is where the Spear was stolen from," Gloria explained and gestured to an ornate stand that was empty. "It was taken in the middle of the night, and we have no idea how they got in or out. We\'ve tried scrying for it, but it\'s like it doesn\'t exist."
I frowned as I looked around the room. There were no windows and only one door. It would be hard to get in or out of here without being seen.
"What about security? Are there cameras or anything?" I asked, and Gloria shook her head.
"No, we don\'t use those things here," she said, and I frowned. That made this even harder then.
"Did anyone see anything? Hear anything?" I asked, but Gloria shook her head again.
"No, it\'s like they just vanished into thin air," she said, and I sighed as I rubbed my temples. This was going to be a pain to figure out.
"Is there anything else you can tell me?" I asked, and Gloria thought for a moment before shrugging.
"That\'s all I know. The King is offering a large reward for its return, so if you could find it, it would be greatly appreciated," she said, and I nodded.
"I\'ll see what I can do," I said, and Gloria smiled before leading me back out into the hall.
"I\'ll have someone show you to your room so you can rest for the night. Tomorrow we can start looking for the thief," she said, and I nodded as we made our way back upstairs.
Gloria led me back to the inn, and I said my goodbyes, but I noticed there was someone in the corner at one of the booths. I was almost positive that it was Jess from earlier. I had hit her with my Orgasmoura presence and probably made her cum more times than she ever had in her life. I would come back to see her, but I wanted to check on the girls upstairs in our room first.
Lillia wasn\'t back yet, Mati already had the covers pulled up, and she was snoring softly. As a Killer whale girl, she probably never slept, so this would be something new for her.
I closed the door quietly and then headed back downstairs. I would wait for a bit more and play with this mermaid for a bit, but if Lillia didn\'t come back soon, I was going to have to go find her.
For now, I walked over to the booth where I had seen Jess, the mermaid who was still there. She looked up at me and then flinched.
"Fancy seeing you here," I said as I sat down, and Jess gave me a nervous look.
"How did you do... that thing?" Jess asked, looking away from me, and I sent a small pulse to her, making Jess bite her lip as she moaned softly.
"I have my ways," I said with a smirk, and Jess looked back at me with an excited look.
"Can you do it again?" Jess asked, and I chuckled as I sent another pulse her way.
Jess gasped as she felt the pleasure course through her body, and she grabbed onto the table to keep from falling over. Her eyes were foggy with lust, and her breathing was coming in short pants.
"P-Please," Jess begged, and I sent another pulse her way. This one was stronger than the last, and Jess screamed out as she came hard on the table.
I stopped after that, not wanting to push my luck too far, but Jess was still trembling with pleasure. Her eyes were glassy as she looked at me in awe, and her body was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
"That... was amazing," Jess breathed, and I nodded as I looked around. Thankfully the bar seemed to have emptied out just before I came in.
"It\'s a special talent of mine," I said with a smirk, and Jess nodded as she tried to catch her breath.
"I can see that," Jess said, and I stood up.
"Do you want to come and find out what else I can do? If you get us a room, that is?" I asked, and Jess nodded eagerly as she floated up.
"Yes, please," Jess said, and I chuckled as I took her by the hand and led her to the front desk.
