Brothel Manager : Unexpected Encounter with A Hidden Family Heirloom

Das, now a shadow within shadows, treaded the treacherous path that snaked through the mountain pass, the silent sentinel rocks rising high on either side. The half map given by Eden, committed to memory, spoke of the second layer of defense, a ring of carnivorous beasts bound to the will of the Silvester family heirloom spirit.

It was a living barrier, one he must cross to reach the heart of the Silvester's domain.

As he emerged from the mountain's throat, the dense foliage gave way to a clearing that seemed untouched by time. Ancient trees, their trunks wide as houses, stood guard around a space that felt both sacred and foreboding. It was here that the air changed, charged with a primal energy that raised the hairs on the back of Das's neck.

For a second Das felt like someone is staring at him in close distance. But even after trying his advanced vision, he failed to see the looming threat.

In a long distance from him, a rocky den, large and foreboding, rose like a throne crafted by nature itself. It was upon this natural fortress that Das's gaze settled, a strategic position from which to face the Silvester's second ring of obstacles.

He had not long to wait. The fierce beasts already found his presence. The first of the beasts, a jaguar with eyes that glinted like obsidian, slinked from the underbrush, its every muscle rippling with predatory grace. It was soon joined by others, each a masterpiece of evolution, honed to perfection over millennia, now corrupted to serve a human will.

Their minds, once wild and free, were shackled by a hypnotic command (controlled by Silvester family heirloom spirit) to kill any intruder.

Das stood his ground, his body tense yet ready, the Shadow clan locket his only ally in protection. The beasts circled, a carousel of impending death, there snarls a symphony of the damned. With a roar that shattered the stillness of the jungle, a massive lion, the king of this accursed court, leaped forth, signaling the start of the onslaught.

Das moved with the fluidity of water, his hands his only weapons against tooth and claw. He dodged the lion's first swipe, the air humming with the power of the beast's fury. Das's counter was a strike to the lion's underbelly, a move designed to stun rather than maim.

For some reason Das decided to not to kill these animals straight away. There are more than thousand animals in the vicinity ready to pounce on him. While dodging the fierce attacks, he moved towards the rocky den. He decided to narrow down the path to reduce the commotion and also to avoid the security traps.

The fight was a dance of life and death, Das weaving through the onslaught with an almost supernatural agility. He was a blur of motion, his every move calculated to incapacitate but not kill, for he held no malice for these creatures, only pity for the life they were forced to lead.

Hours wore on, the moon climbing the sky as the confrontation raged. The rocky den became an amphitheater to a battle epic in scale, Das's shadow a constant flicker against the stark stone. With each passing hour, his body bore the marks of the struggle, scratches, and bruises blooming across his skin like a macabre tapestry.

For some odd reason, the animals who got pushed by Das tried to escape from the den. The hypnotism is wearing down from their brains upon painful impact. Das decided to use this advantage by creating chaos among the beasts.

The animals came in waves, as if understanding the futility of their solitary attacks. Hyenas with their maddening laughter, pumas with their silent steps, snakes with their lethal embrace—all were sent forth by the Silvester's will.

Slowly, Das began using the cosmic energy from the weapon spirits inside his body and tried to attacks the bigger animals and there by messing up the path of other animals. As the normal animals and hypnotic animals engaged in combat, Das got time to get some relief inside that rocky den.

But all this time he couldn't wear off the feeling that someone is watching him from the start.

As the dawn's first light broke across the sky, painting the world in hues of gold and pink, the final wave of beats, a behemoth of a bears and tigers, fell at den's entrance, their breaths heavy with exhaustion. Das stood amidst the messy creatures, not in triumph. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire

The obstacle is cleared, but the war was far from over. As Das surveyed the clearing, his body ached with a thousand pains, yet his spirit was unbroken. He had faced the second layer of the Silvester's defense and emerged victorious.

Taking a moment to gather his strength, Das knew that this was but one of many challenges that lay ahead. The Silvester's had underestimated intruders, and he would use that to his advantage. For now, he began moving forwards from the the lion's den, a brief stop in the eye of the storm, as the jungle whispered its ancient secrets around him.

His breath came in ragged gasps, each one echoing the intensity of the night's ferocious battles. The beasts lay scattered, their bodies rising and falling with the slow, steady rhythm of deep sleep. With the coming of light, the hypnotic hold over them had waned, and they were now mere creatures of flesh and blood, not the mindless soldiers they had been forced to become.

Das knew he could not linger. Time was a river that flowed ever onward, and he was swimming against its current. He descended from the den, stepping with care over the slumbering forms of the jungle's finest. He spared a glance at the majestic lion, its chest rising and falling with peaceful breaths. In the animal's reprieve from the Silvester's control, Das saw a kindred spirit — a fellow warrior.

Moving with purpose, Das pressed on, following the path outlined by the half-map, his eyes vigilant for the next layer of defense. The Tree Sapiens awaited, a sentient forest that whispered of an ancient magic, a magic that could perceive the heartbeats of those who dared to walk its paths. The half map given by Eden also ended here.

As he entered the domain of the Tree Sapiens, the forest seemed to come alive. The trees, towering and ancient, watched with a thousand unseen eyes. Vines curled and uncurled with a life of their own, and the very ground beneath Das's feet seemed to breathe. A symphony of rustles and creaks filled the air, a language only the forest could speak.

The half-map was no longer of use. In the realm of the Tree Sapiens, one had to listen, to understand the subtle shifts of the wind, the soft murmur of the leaves. Das moved with reverence, every step an offering of respect to the ancient guardians of the forest.
