Sup. After a long hiatus I'm back with what is practically a one-shot, but not really.

So for those who have read my main story you'll notice that I've been off for about a month or so. Holidays, Family, work stress and the like have taken its toll on me. I got sick twice within the span of 3 weeks. so I decided to take an unintentional break. With that unintentional break came ideas, and inspirations, and so I decided to drop a few nuggets for shits and giggles while i finish up the next chapter of Darkness creeping into my heart.

Chapter 1: I'm not an adventurer.

The world of Serber could only know peace with the Death of the Demon King's armies, including his Four Generals, the Succubi Queen, The Goblin King, The Litch King, and the Vampire King. The Demon Lord returned to the earthly realm every 1000 years. The world always counts down the half a century before his revival, sparking a rise in adventurers, and the birth of the Hero who is destined to save the world. Between the Beastmen Country of Galette, The Dweafen Kingdom, the Elf Forests of Yddrasill, and the multitude of Human Countries It was always a toss-up with who would be marked as the hero of the world. It is rumored that there were three candidates for Hero during this Era. All powerful young madams according to the rumor

But this story has jack to do with the Heros for the moment and instead is of a simple Innkeeper.

Location: Zion

Place: The Spiral Hostel

Time: Early Morning

The Great Adventurers City Zion was a neutral city to the powerful kingdoms, great empires, and the many clans that called the Continent home. Here in Zion it was considered a neutral city where no one power claimed dominion. The center of the city was the Great Tower, 10 floors of Marble was perfectly the center of the city. All the Kingdoms, Empires, Clans, and groups had some type of representation that used the tower as a headquarters several businesses had sprung up around the Tower mostly weapon shops, Inns, bars, and recruitment offices for Adventuring Clans. Just a few blocks from the tower were the Adventurer Guild an Independent organization that had free reign to work within all the kingdoms. The Adventurers Guild in Zion was the main headquarters of the entire In eastern part of the city known as the Financial and Business district. This was where the Merchant Guild made its home. The Northern district was the residential zone were multiple houses and villas. The Western and Southern Districts were a mix of business, residential, and the like, but they were not as prominent as the East and North of the city.

Right next to the Adventurers Guild was The Spiral Hostal. A six-floor building with a basement and something akin to a training field that was fenced in. It served as both bar and hotel for several adventurers, but a lot of them said that the 'home feel' was what they looked for during their time off the battlefield. The first floor served as strictly bar and eatery. Because of the number of adventurers that came and went three full-time cooks, nine apprentice cooks, nine waitresses, 18 housekeepers, and 12 bodyguards worked in the establishment in 8-hour shifts. It had 60 rooms most of the Quad for Adventurer parties, a few doubles, and five singles. Even at 11 in the morning it was already full of adventurers who were either preparing to go or were returning and taking up temporary residency in the Hostal.

Currently, the counter was manned by the matron of the Establishment. So-called because she was the second highest ranking person in the Hostal and gave orders when the owner wasn't in. Givna Iornbuster. She was a dwarf woman who was probably in her late 40's early 50's but because Dwarfs lived nearly 200 years, she looked closer to her late 20s. She stood at 4'9" with a body that was thick with dwarfen muscle, and large- on her body at least- breasts, waist-length chestnut-red hair, blue eyes, and a face full of freckles that made her look cute, wearing a shoulder-less blouse, short-shorts, and knee-high boots. Over this, she wore an apron. While she might have looked calm and aloft she was a former Adventurer. Part of the now-defunct B-ranked adventuring party; Buster Dragon.

She was serving up mead, beer, and the house special of MM Sake. As she was handed a few pieces of Silver for a large Mead a girl walked up and slammed the tray down. Givna looked at the young girl who slammed the tray on the table. The girl in the full bloom of her 16 years old was a Human girl who Givna had adopted just after she quit adventuring. She stood at 5'4 with hip-length red hair that she kept in a loose ponytail, wearing an orange and wife cafe uniform with black pantyhose, brown shoes, and an apron. This was Roysia IornBuster. Child of two Givna's deceased adventuring partners.

"What the problem child?" asked Givna.

Roysia looked over her left shoulder. "Table 12 is being a bit more rowdy than usual. They ordered a few pieces of chicken and one of them even made a pass at me, Mother," said Roysia.

Givna smiled. "That's a normal child. You are of marrying age for a human at least. I was your age once and I had a few lovers in my time, including your birth parents," said Givna smiling at the memories of the men and women she has bedded in her time.

"Please Mother I don't need to hear what you got up to with my birth parents, may the Great Mother and Eternal Father rest their souls," said Roysia.

"Don't be daft child. It's only natural that ye know about your birth parents including the things they got up too outside of adventuring. But enough about that. This is about ye child. Why I remember a few knights asking me to court ya not that long ago, but ye have your eyes on a certain patron of ours," said Givna.

Roysia blushed. "Mother, please! Master is not just some man, he is the ONLY man to whom I would even consider showing my body too.. if he ever shows interest," said Roysia.

Givna didn't bother asking who her daughter was thinking about. "So what did that lout do child?" asked Givna crossing her arms under her chest.

"He touched my arm and told me to stay in his lap. I didn't want to make a scene mama, so I quickly got away as fast as possible," said Roysia.

Givna narrowed her eyes as she placed her hand on the axe that she kept under the table for defense purposes. Her career may have been over for the last 15 years, but she wasn't a B+ adventurer for nothing. Even something as simple as a knife was deadly in her skills hands. While the guards could handle most problems, Givna herself wasn't someone to mess with.

Givna looked over to the door where one of their guards was sitting. Catching his eye she made a jerking motion with her chin to the table. This was easily picked up by a giant of a man, standing at 6'9 and full of muscle. he gave Givna a nod as he stood and re-positioned himself at a window seat. Despite looking out at the rest of the town he was fully watching the four men that were seated there.

For the next hour or so the men and women drank, ate, and relaxed. Roysia did her best to steer clear of the men alongside the other waitresses, but it was touch as they occupied one of the center tables, so the girls were pawed at and groped. While it was frowned upon, it was something that normally happened as several of the men and even a few women found it something of a game. The two older waitresses even made a game of it, but right now they were facing downright sexual harassment. Once or twice was just joking, but this... this was grating on Givna's nerves. But as the girls didn't use the signal or distress word Givna wouldn't do anything... yet.

The door to the back office/ kitchen area opened as a man walked out of the room. He was quite tall and handsome if many of the young women's options were to be taken into account and despite being seven years her senior, Roysia still had him in her sights despite the normal average age gap being 15-20 years apart for some couples, especially those that were arranged for political or monetary gains. He stood at 6'1" and had the body of a demi-god with compacted tight muscle to prove that they were not for show but use. His blonde hair was spiky and a bit shaggy almost fluffy, with dark blue eyes that had an edge of purple to them. He wore a tiger-striped pair of pants, a black muscle shirt, and a headband with a spiral that resembled a leaf on it. Attached to his belt was a pair of Kodachi from what he called them, Thrown over his shoulders a fluffy white towel.

"Morning ladies," said the man yawning as he wiped his face with the towel before tossing it into a used basket that Givna kept next to the bar.

Givna smirked. "Woke up early to work out huh Naruto?" said Givna.

"Have to keep in shape ya'know," said Naruto.

Roysia glared at him. "I wish you would take your job as patron of this establishment more seriously Master. You're not an adventurer punk! you're just a business owner. There's no need for you to train the way you do," said Roysia.

Naruto chuckled as Givna set some ice-cold water in front of Naruto. It was one of the many things that the Spiral Hostel had over many others. Thanks to some strange magic that Naruto once he acquired the deed to the hostel, they had hot and cold water at the touch of a tap. A luxury that only royals, nobles, and powerful merchants had access to.

The patron of the establishment took a seat at the bar. Givna reached under the bar and pulled out a bowl of noodles. The house special. And Naruto's favorite dish. Naruto salivated as the noodles, before grabbing a pair of ornate sticks and digging in.

"I swear the way people eat with those little sticks of the Eastern Federation is always beyond me," said Roysia as she the dishes for the table of hooligans came out.

Naruto chuckled. "It's easy to me," said Naruto.

Roysia took the dishes over, well aware that the group of men as well as the guard, Givna, and Naruto were watching her. It made her swell to think that the man that she had feelings for was watching her. Of course, she knew that Naruto only saw her as a little sister. He had told her as much when she jokingly- but with a hint of hope in her tone- told him that she would one day be his bride.

Waling up to the table she placed the plate down and turned to leave but was grabbed by one of the men. The Leader of the Four Adventurers who were there. He was quite large and wore full plate armor. From his weaponry, he was probably a sheilder.

"Hey lass, you blow off me and mi boys. I think you need to make it up to us, yeah," said the man.

Roysia blushed hot read in anger as she felt a massive paw groping her behind. She tried to get away, but his grip was too tight. The guard rose from his position and got behind the man.

"Sir I'm going to have to ask you to let go of Miss Roysia," said the Guard.

The Shilder looked at him. "Huh? Who do you think you are to tell mi what to do clown!? I'm Blake Heyman, Heir to Duke Heymen of the Empire. Not to mention I'm the Leader of a well-known C-ranked," said the now-named Blake.

A lot of adventurers turned away from him. Many of them were well aware of the reputation of the Empire. So arrogant in their power and superiority they actively wagered war against other nations who angered 'the emperor' or at least the Prime Minister Honest as it was an open secret that he was the true power behind the current throne. They even scoffed at the fines and deductions levied against the empire. Many kingdoms, opposing Empires, and factions disliked the Empire for they were one of the remaining nations that practiced. That being said, even the Emperor and Prime Minister knew that they couldn't defeat the entire continent if they went to far.

That being said, most people were reluctant to make enemies of high-ranking officials in the Empire.

A bowl was slammed onto the bar with a thud that echoed throughout the bar.

"Pauper, noble, royalty, or God. It doesn't make a difference to me. Any asshole who has to force a woman into his bed is nothing but trash," said Naruto standing up.

Blake glared at Naruto with enough annoyance that Roysia was able to get away. "Who the hell do you think you are to talk to the Scarlet Fang Party like that!?" asked Blake. The other members of his party rose to their feet.

A sheilder, A Rouge, a Fighter, and a mage. All in all a standard time formation.

Naruto signed in annoyance, as he creaked his knuckles in annoyance. "Me? I'm no one, just a simple Inn Keeper who knows how to kick serious ass," said Naruto.

"Get him!" yelled Blake.

Naruto rushed forward in a show of speed that only Archers and Rouges had. He planted his foot firmly on the ground in front of the of mage and hit him with an open-palm strike to the chest. The mage yelled in pain as he was sent flying into a chair that skidded backward 10 feet. The fighter raised his sword and rushed in aiming for Naruto's neck, but his foot was hooked from behind by an axe and he was sent tumbling to the ground. This was courtesy of Ginva who had grabbed the axe and joined her boss. The rogue was about to attack with a pair of knives, but the guard raised one massive fist and slammed it down on the man's shoulder instantly knocking him out. Blake looked on in fear and knew that it would be foolish of him to stay on here like this. Turning tail he ran to the door only to be met with a fist to the face. This came from the second guard who always watched the door.

Naruto sighed as he looked at the idiots who pulled that crap in his place. One of his big rules was you don't touch his staff. They were his family, and you don't mess with a man's family.

"Givna call the City Guard i'm pressing charges for assault on my employees and damage to my property, Roysia call the Guild Master I'm going to get their license revoked and have them banned," said Naruto.

Givna smiled as she gave a two-finger salute. "You got it, boss," said Givna, before she dragged Roysia out of the hostal.

Naruto sighed as he looked at the damaged table and chairs. It would be a bitch and a half to replace them. Even after living to see the rise and fall of two demon lords, Naruto was beginning to wonder why he put up with these kids playing at politics.
