Chapter 5: IT'S A TRAP

In an unspecified location.

David woke up with a grunt, his head aching for a reason unknown.

Yet to fully wake, he was suddenly bombarded with the whispers of an alien language.

What was peculiar was the fact that he had understood the meaning of those words.

"Another filthy noble" Someone said

"Look at his soft white skin, untainted by hard work" Added another.

"What bright and beautiful colors his clothes are, although peculiar"

One gasps in wonder.

"He will never make it out alive" Chuckled another which was swiftly followed up by others with a visible sneer.

Before another could comment, a bell-like sound rang out in the background.

The whispers suddenly stopped.

The group of people, who David could see to be of either similar age or younger than him, began to orderly stand in front of their bed-like dwelling.

Unsure of what to make out of this situation, David decided to copy what the others were doing, getting off the hard and uncomfortable wooden bed, standing at attention just like the other teenagers.

Whilst waiting for whatever that was going to happen next, David began to observe his surroundings, making use of the system's ability to 'Inspect'.

"Hmm a pickpocket, a thief?"

David muttered, glancing at one of the kids.

He then scratched his head, glancing at a random skinny, shivering kid.

"Inspect" David thought.

"The fuck?" David blurted out subconsciously, shocked at how there's suddenly a girl living with a bunch of guys. Of course, this is an assumption he had made based on his visual based impression.

Going on a head scratching spree, his vision wanders around the enclosed room, making sure that he's not being delusional.

"Hmm, maybe the…inspection is quite lax?" He thought, in his absentminded state, staring down at the skinny kid, which was responded with a cautious glare of her own.

"...Hmm yes, I suppose she's quite flat and her hair is short…but can't one tell by the absence of a bulge?" Thought David, curiously.

He then instantly carried out his hypothesis, staring at multiple different kid's crotch with a thoughtful look, not noticing the weird, uncomfortable glares of his peers.

Only stopping when his intrusive gaze returned to the origin of the problem itself.

His gaze finally settles on the …bulge... on Kannette's crotch...?

Freezing for a tenth of a second, David sighed loudly before shaking his head, giving the poor kid an 'I see' look accompanied by a wriggle of his thick eyebrows.

The skinny kid was traumatized by this terrifying experience.
