84 Bros After Hoes

Trevon had a good sleep that day. He saw the satisfied smile on Cecillia's face who was still sleeping after the long painting session. There were many things that Golden Hands Trevon could do and enjoy even when he protected his purity. Golden Hands Trevon woke to a relaxing smell of tea. Several cultured paintings from last night were rested on their easels.

Mother Sornatia had been awake and prepared a tea for Trevon. She had tried to pry Trevon's secrets, but Trevon managed to author an absurd story to avoid all questions.

Trevon really glad to spend enough time reading web novels. That helped him make those half-fiction stories. He decided he could become a Byeontae writer if he needed to quit Byeontae school of painting. The young master believed he would be more popular than Master Rabbink with his Byeontae novels.

"Did you enjoy last night, Elder Sister?" Trevon decided to punish this Grand Elder for trying to trap him.

Since he managed to escape with his storytelling. Trevon braved enough to make this Grand Elder begged him to stop during the painting session last night.

"Of course, Young Master Trevon. Everybody in the business knew the fame of your golden hands. Hehehe." She showed her sweet smile from her pale pink lip.

[Oh... So beautiful... Wait!!! She is as old as my grandmother. I have a girl in the capital waiting for me.] He reminded himself. The young master felt some cold sweats on his back.

If he asked her for marriage, that would equal to join her harem. This powerful Grand Elder would become the family leader. At the same time, a rank 3 beautiful warrior really could topple a small kingdom.

[Yes. Her fists are enough to topple the smaller ones.] He sweated even more.

Trevon said some pleasantries and enjoyed the tea with Mother Sornatia. Before he decided to talk about his goal coming here.

"Elder Sister, I want to pay for Cecillia's debt."

"Eh? Have you talked with Cecillia?"

"No. She didn't know about this."

"Then, I must reject Young Master Trevon's good intention."

"No. It isn't like that." Trevon knew a courtesan could have someone else paid for his/her debt. However, it must be under the knowledge and permission of the courtesan.

A courtesan wasn't a slave contracted to the house. One could decide about his or her future. Somebody must have the permission from the courtesan first before they could pay a courtesan's debt. This was to prevent a courtesan being forced into a family which one didn't want.

"Then... What is it?" Mother Sornatia didn't understand Trevon's wishes.

"I will pay her debt, but I will allow her to pay her debt back to me. She could pay for her freedom one day. I wouldn't ask anything else from her. She could decide everything. I also didn't need anything in return. Her boss is herself. She didn't owe me anything." Trevon decided that he should do this. This was his closure for his young love with Cecillia and Margareth. He would make a step toward the girls in the capital.

"..." Mother Sornatia was in a dilemma. Cecillia was a McArthur employee who worked as a spy. She had no debt contract in the beginning. Yet with such generous offers from Trevon, it would be strange if she rejected him.

Anytime a spy completed his or her assignment, the house would inform that someone purchased his or her debt. While actually the spy was moved into a distant place. Some even could retire young and got huge benefits from the family since the job was dangerous.

"Erm..."

"How much is her debt?" Trevon forcefully asked.

"She had to pay one hundred thousand spirit stones." Sornatia made a huge number on the spot. She wanted to stop Trevon from messing around.

"Fine." Trevon took a big pouch from his waist. He saved lots of money for two years for this. The young master would get what he wanted.

[I forget he is very rich.] Mother Sornatia almost wanted to facepalm herself.

"What about if she paid for her debt? Where should I give it to, Young Master Trevon?"

"Elder Sister can consider that as my payment to rent this private room." Trevon decided. He couldn't make Mother Sornatia went to his father or mother. Especially not to his fiancée.

"I will represent her to thank Young Master Trevon." Sornatia gave a bow to Trevon.

"No need, Elder Sister Sornatia. We are a more than a friend. Haven't we experienced the peak of life together?" Trevon joked. "Also, are my good brothers here?" Trevon asked.

"Yes. They were in the usual room."

"I should greet them. I will leave the city for a family tournament later. Say my thanks to Cecillia. This won't be a farewell." Trevon didn't say that he would be stationed in the capital. He could return using a portal.

"We will wait for your return, Young Master."

Trevon left the smiling Sornatia and the sleeping Cecillia.

He went down to the third floor. Eternal Night's third floor was used for normal restaurant VIP rooms. One of those rooms was for the young masters and ladies to gather after their hangover. It was the place where Trevon met with his usual group of friends in Bluestar. The member of his group would party in their own private room before meeting with friends in the morning. They were bros after hoes.

"No way! It is you, Bro." A skinny man in a yellow robe hugged Trevon after he saw Trevon entered the room. The person was handsome with his long hair neatly knotted with a luxury hairband. His eyes clearly showed his happiness to meet his long-lost friend. A bright smile showed on his face.

"I only came yesterday evening. How are you, Tim?" Trevon tried to dodge a man hug, but he couldn't. He preferred to hug a beautiful lady. [Ah... Well...]

Timberlake was the name of this brother, but he preferred to call him Tim. Tim was the son of a Farlen Grand Elder. Farlen was an old cultivation family in Bluestar.

Trevon had read from his own novel that his father bullied a young master of Farlen family in the past. The strange thing he was a brother with a Farlen. Nevertheless, it was common in a great family. Some members might have a disagreement with each other while the other would be best buddies.

Trevon and Tim were connected with the same lifestyle. Both were VIP in several pleasure houses. Of course, both didn't dare to go to the last step. It could affect the future main wife. Those two were the toothless tigers.

"I am good, Trevon. You have missed a lot of fun things in Bluestar."

"Where is Toryn?" Trevon asked.

"He was sent to the capital. His father wanted him to start his career in his family business."

"How about Trucker?"

"That boy should still in upstairs. He might come a bit late. That man hired several ladies to accompany him drinking."

"Titania?"

"Well, she was already engaged to a small family young master. She went to Alburch a year ago."

"It is bad for her." Trevon said. She was one of the ladies in his circle of spoiled young master and ladies. Eternal Night also served male courtesan to entertain the ladies. Heavenly Phoenix was free about this matter.

"Yes, I heard her husband was a weak coward. He was too shy to speak with a girl. That is why he accepted the marriage proposal from Titania. Only she would marry with him from her family."

"Sigh..." Trevon had to regret their fallen sister.

"I had told her not to play to the last base with the boy in other houses. Look what happened to her! She couldn't get a better husband. You are still in the toothless club, right?"

"Of course, do you think I want to become a family breeding dog? Redwood is a backwater for that thing. Let me tell you! That city doesn't have any pleasure house."

"That is crazy. I have only heard it in the rumor. How could you survive?" His clear eyes turned big from his surprise.

"Yes. Redwood people were crazy. However, I will share with you a secret." Trevon started to talk about his ranking. The good big brother shared his masterpiece, the ranking list.

Tim took the list as a treasure and carefully copied the information. This would be useful to other members of the brotherhood. "You are truly the big brother. This sacred text will help our brothers. We can always count on you when we visited Redwood."

"Unfortunately, Tim, I won't be in Redwood. I will search for more beautiful girls in the capital. Hahaha." Trevon felt proud. It was said the most beautiful ladies in Heavenly Phoenix came from the capital.

That wasn't strange since the place closed to the sea and had access to the trendiest stuff from other continents. While Bluestar was the capital of trade, the Capital was the capital of mode. Cool fashion and better style would make the girls more charming.

"Why? Are you running away from your family? I can ask Trucker to find you a temporary residence."

"No. I got a marriage proposal. Hahahaha." Trevon took his fan and fanned himself.

"Wow! Who is that lecherous to marry you? She must want to enjoy your golden hands. Hahaha." Tim laughed. As a friend, he could joke with Trevon.

"What?" Trevon slammed his fan into Tim's head. "I have many other good sides other than my famous hands."

"It's a joke, Bro. Who is the lucky girl?"

"I actually haven't met her." Trevon didn't know the name only the rumor about her beauty.

"Eh? Then how could you accept a meeting."

"My parents accepted for me. They said she was one of the Royal College's pearls."

"No way!" Tim didn't believe. Everyone in Heavenly Phoenix knew that Royal College only accepted special people. Those people either had a huge background of were very smart and talented. A pearl of the Royal Academy was definitely one of the special people in the capital.

"This is why I must go to the capital." Trevon wanted to see the girl. His parents wouldn't lie about this.

"Tell me about her! I have some information."

"She only came from a small family. I believed her family did some trading in the capital, but they had a noble certificate from the central continent." Trevon said.

"You must be joking!" Tim grabbed Trevon. "She must be Lady Altalunne."

"Is she famous?" Trevon didn't know that Tim knew her.

"Yes. She is." Tim gave an unbelievable look at Trevon. " AH! Totally unfair! Unfair! Lucky Asshole!" He tried to kick Trevon.

"Hey! Hey! Tell me how do you know!" Trevon tried to dodge. He wouldn't show his real power outside a real battle.

"There are only five pearls in the Royal College at this time. Of those five, two were the princesses of the royal families. One is your distant cousin, a McArthur. We have only two candidates left, Olivia and Altalunne."

"Olivia?"

"Yes, you must have known her, Olivia Redwood. She became very famous in the capital. Since you just came from Redwood, I thought your fiancée was Olivia in the beginning. However, we all know her background. Her Redwood family isn't a small family. I also heard she was close with a prince from the imperial families."

"Ah! Tell me more about this Altalunne!" Trevon wanted to know about his future fiancée.

"I got this information from Toryn. This Altalunne comes from a small merchant family, but I heard she is a foreigner from outside Heavenly Phoenix. Her family is very rich in their origin country."

"What about her character?" It was the most important factor for Trevon.

"I heard that she is very kind and friendly. She had lots of friends in the college. She is also active in her clubs. Her hobby is reading and studying. Wait, let me check whether it is true!" Tim took a book from his storage ring.

"What is that?"

"This is a note from Toryn about the beautiful ladies in the capital. I also will go to the capital next year." Tim had prepared. Similar to Trevon his fame was bad in Bluestar, he needed to go to the distant capital to find new ladies to trick.

"Let me read!" Trevon grabbed the book and read it himself.

"She seemed beautiful from the description." Tim commented while reading next to Trevon.

Their brother, Toryn was a famous stalker in Bluestar. He loved to write his guide which described the beautiful girls in details. This would help many members of the brotherhood.

"See? My main body will choose the best female character for you." Master Rabbink felt proud.

[Thank you then.] Trevon didn't care about Master Rabbink's bragging. He continued to read his brother's observation report.

"Yes. Her famous character is her business savviness. She was famous for promoting her family stores in the academy. In less than two years, their branches under her management grew in the capital." Tim read the report.

Trevon nodded while he continued reading the available information.

"I think your parents want her to help you in the business side. This also answered why she accepted you. You were the most handsome in our group and she didn't know the rumor about us. She was a foreigner who lives in the capital." Tim had to admit.

Trevon a bit disappointed about this. He thought he finally found someone who would love him even with those rumors around.

"Why with the sullen face? Toryn would kill you if he knows you got the chance to marry her. He had told that she is the second most popular out of those five pearls after Olivia."

"Really?"

"Of course. Look! The ladies from your family and the imperial families are hard to get. Most people could only forget about them. Only Olivia and Altalunne didn't come from a great family. Everyone tried to get closer to them." Tim slapped Trevon on the back. "I envy you, Bro. It is very nice being a McArthur."

"Could I get the pages about her?" Trevon asked the paper from Tim.

"Well. Bros before hoes." Tim ripped the piece of paper from his book. "I hope your success, Bro! Do not forget to introduce us to her friends."

"Yes, you too! Take care, we will meet again in the capital. Say my farewell to the bros! I might return soon." Trevon said.

"Yes, we will meet again. Tell my greeting to Toryn in the capital!"

"Ah! Do you know where he stays?"

"He lives in the college dorm, but it is hard to meet him."

"Then I will visit him in the dorm."

Trevon left Tim after talking a bit more. Then, he visited his own pavilion in Bluestar to restock his belongings.

The young master took his favorite items and his hidden stash. He also didn't forget to press the troublemeter since he needed to stay in the wagon. It was a falling brick from God knew where. Luckily, he managed to dodge it.

[Why is it a brick?] He complained. Those bricks always used by the MC in the novel to target the young masters. They were the worst weapon faced by the young masters in the novels. He kicked the brick to vent his frustration with the troublemeter. It hit the wall before bounced back to him.

"Gwahahaha. This is the trouble." Master Rabbink laughed.

Trevon went to his universe and found Nana was angry with him. He left her in the universe when he made some paintings in the Eternal Night. The young master had a long painting session last night.

He took some time to pacify her with extra spirit foods.

Trevon also put a portal in his pavilion. He could use this if he wanted to visit Eternal Night in the future. The young master felt that It was a bit painful. All his portal points had been used for the ladies in Redwood, therefore he needed to remove an old one to put a new one.

[I will remove this girl's house.] Trevon removed a portal from a lady in Redwood. He loved the portal feature so much. The lonely young master could secretly run into one of the temporary girlfriend's house.

Trevon arrived at the family pavilion at 07:50. It was already the time to continue their journey.

This time the caravan had even more wagons. It was almost ten times the quantity from Redwood to Bluestar. His family pavilion was very crowded with wagons.

The travel between the capital and Bluestar was the most important trading route in Heavenly Phoenix. The capital had many products from other the continents while Bluestar had many products from the south part of the continent.

Trevon could see the same merchants from Redwood. Other than the merchants from Redwood, other merchants from nearby cities would follow the same route.

His family also had several branches in the cities around Bluestar. There were six Grand Elders in the group. They would separate into three smaller groups who would move together. Trevon wagon was in the second group together with other Redwood young masters and ladies.

Trevon entered his wagon. He didn't want to be late.

The young master had decided not to slow the journey. He wanted to see the beautiful, Altalunne as soon as he could.

Trevon sat in his room and looked again into Altalunne description. [Beautiful...] He thought.

[I wish Toryn could draw...] He almost kissed the description. Toryn wrote that she was a jade-like beauty with a pure smile as in those novels.

[Wait!!! I think I have read the name somewhere.] Yet he didn't remember when. He had read too many web novels and each had their characters. [Nevermind... Oh! My Altalunne.] Trevon returned to his imagination.

After Bluestar, the caravan would travel around the big lake. The lake near Bluestar shouldn't be considered as a normal lake. It was a freshwater sea inside the continent. Its name was Blue Lake.

However, A forbidden located in the center of the lake. There was a mysterious island which said would kill everyone who stepped on it. The rumor from Bluestar was that people would never return from the Blue Death Island.

Trevon had no plan to visit it the beautiful lake. He continued to read the paper about his potential fiancée. The more he read the paper, the more the girls seemed interesting. While she wasn't calm and elegant, she was friendly and active. Trevon was neutral about this type.

[As long as she isn't as cold as my father or as scary as Raina.] Trevon thought.

The wagon left the beautiful star next to the lake. Trevon saw the lake soon looked smaller and smaller. His next destination was Hillbridge. It was a city on top of a mountain.
