Chapter 187: The Quinlan Special 1
I follow closely behind, still carrying Ayame over my shoulder.
"Blade is about to become normal again, Master. Ghost thinks Master shouldn't spank her any longer."
'Hey, you make me sound like a pervert. Well, that's exactly what I was doing, but I stopped minutes ago!' I think wryly.
It seems Blossom can sense brain wavelengths or patterns or something, I don't know. She is still a bundle of mysteries to me sometimes.
I settle Ayame down onto the ground and give her a few strong shakes, which finally prompts her to return to the land of the living. "Huh?" She asks hazily.
"Summary: I stole a Legendary artifact, we are wanted criminals from now on, then we came to the cave to get the [Geimroot] so that we can dip finally."
She eyes me like I've gone crazy, then as her memory slowly returns and realizes that everything I've said is real, lets out a rather rare curse from her delicate lips. "Curses!" Well, quite literally this time.
"Let's hurry then. I want a warm bath so damn bad." Ayame states, finally getting her sass back.
As we delve deeper into the cave, I can feel a shift in the air. Something oppressive presses down on us the further we go. I look at Blossom, whose ears twitch as she scans the darkness.
"There's something ahead towards the end of the cavern. A presence," she whispers in a low tone then raises her nose slightly, and inhales. "A canine monster. Not a werewolf, more like a… Bloodhound?"

'Bloodhound? Is that like Cerberus? Also, what's with another canine monster right after werewolves? Well, I mean, in this case it makes more sense if they use it as a guard dog to protect the [Geimroot], I suppose.
The path widens into a vast chamber, but just before we step further in, a low, rumbling growl echoes through the darkness. "It's a minute's walk at our current pace from us, once we turn around the corner he will be in sight, Master." Blossom states.
Slowly, carefully, I peak my head out to get a look, and see a large, specious cavern chamber that is illuminated dimly by light artifacts, a chamber that spans for a long while.
And, indeed, in the far end of the space I see the hideous creature.
The bloodhound monster is a sight to behold. It's a hulking, three-headed beast, easily the size of a small house, with pitch black fur and glowing red eyes that seem to pierce through the shadows. Its muscles ripple with restrained power, and magical chains, inscribed with glowing runes, bind it to the ground, barely holding it in place.
Each head growls in unison, their deep, guttural sounds vibrating through the cavern walls, creating an ominous echo.
However, instead of attacking us, it's just staring menacingly while standing tall.
I describe what I see to my two partners, and Ayame is quick to voice her thoughts. "Sounds like it's magically chained to protect what's behind it. In the Fujimori clan, we used similar beasts to act as guard dogs for our hidden locations, or even just normal territories sometimes.
You would need a high level Beast Tamer for a monster of this caliber, but gaining the help of one for the kingdom is not a big hurdle, of course. It can't come any closer unless we step into its territory or attack it."
Blossom sniffs the air cautiously, her ears twitching. "It's aware of us. Smelled us long before B-Ghost smelled it."
"That's the problem," Ayame continues. "If we aggro the thing, it's likely going to roar loud enough to send a signal to any remaining soldiers. These things are meant to not only protect but also to alert. It probably has some ways to alert its owners even through its magical binding array."
I rub my chin thoughtfully. "So not only do we have to beat this thing to get to the good stuff it guards, we also have to do it without letting it make a sound… Easier said than done."
"It's definitely a high level one, I don't think we stand a chance here, even in a proper fight without our added limitations of secrecy. Let's return to Braedon." Ayame adds.
I sigh, trying to come up with a plan. "Let me think for a few seconds…"
There's simply no way we can beat such a mythical beast without it even making a sound. I guess it should be at least level 30, even if its main function is to alert the Aegis Vanguard members and not to solo defend the [Geimroot]. It makes no sense to use a monster that can easily be one-shot killed by a mage or archer from this distance.
Then, a sudden spark ignites in my head. 'If it worked once, who is to say it won't work again? No need to reinvent the wheel every single time.'
A wicked grin spreads across my features. "Ghost, come here."
She responds without missing a beat. "Yes, Master!"
Once she is in front of me, I seize both of our masks and put them aside, then grab her two mounds and give her a peck on the lips. "Mhm?" She asks something, but her mouth has already been sealed shut, so only some muted sounds can be heard. My gentle kiss soon turns into a much more emotion-charged one as I force her lips to part and let my tongue in.

It doesn't take more than a second for my airhead dog-kin to completely ignore the perilous situation we're in and energetically respond to my own actions with her own tongue movements, as we soon enter a saliva-rich tango.
"... Quinlan? Have you gone mad?" Ayame asks, utterly flabbergasted at my actions. Naturally, she gets ignored.
I have found a way, and it will all depend on our superstar. But first, I have to get her in the right mood.
I'm very aware of the fact that Blossom absolutely adores our kissing sessions- and so do I- so I know it's the ideal warm up. A gentleman shouldn't raw dog things without any foreplay to get his ladies ready.
