Chapter 4 - The path

In front of me, enveloped by luxurious red velvet, stood two pills.

A green with marble motif pill that exuded energy just laying there and a golden but simple pill.

I knew exactly what they were, but…

"Why? I don't think I've done something to warrant such gifts."

The previous saintly figure with blonde hair and emerald green eyes, now looked like the very image of a scammer.

"Oh you really are jack shit poor."

The fuck?

"Crow, these pills… how do I put it…"

He didn't say anything else, just snapped his fingers.

As soon as the sound was produced, three men in black suits entered the private room, put their suitcase on the table and opened them revealing a plethora of pills…

A level of richness I couldn't even begin to fathom.

"What the actual fuck?"

"Hahahahaha!! Oh Crow, mine is the family of Disorder. Sure I'm leaving but I still have plenty of personal funds. Those two pills I gave you are nothing. I just want to create some chaos."

I was starstruck.

This filthy rich bastard.

"You know what? As a matter of fact, here. Take this too."

A red pill found its way with the other two in front of me.

"What's the catch?"

Immediately, the joyful air around Aaron changed. The temperature seemed to drop and a slight sense of fright was suffocating me.

"That bitch is going around saying I am a cheater, that she found me in bed not only with someone else. But with a man."

Ohhh… that's bad for a main family…

"As you can imagine, although socially acceptable, same sex relationships are a big no no in the main families. Sooo…"

Here it comes, he will ask me to silence her. Fuck how do I kill somebody?

"We are going to her house and I want you to kiss me in front of her, maybe even squeeze my ass."

THE FUCK?

"Also, these gentlemen are all part of the path of shifters, from the Disorder branch. It means they can change some aspect of someone else, even if for a limited time."

Hahah… hahahahahah…

I couldn't help my laughter.

I was given the basic mana body pill, the physical conditioning pill and a macro nutrition pill, just for a kiss?

"Let's go."

I didn't need any more convincing, I didn't even care about being masked in anyway, I just wanted the pills and be done with it.

"I appreciate your eagerness, but there's no chance in hell I'll let someone dressed like that even touch me."

He snapped his fingers again and this time a lady with branded shopping bags entered.

"Make him redhead, dress him good, at least people will think this giant is from the path of War."

He then turned around and left.

I was still in a daze when one of the possible bodyguards started to touch my hair like it was clay, and just like clay, it changed under his touch, from a mid length to a short spiky cut as red as fire.

"Ohhh… young man, you should cut your hair when you get the chance."

I didn't really listen to anything and just let them me treat like a doll.

God forbid I waste the precious calories I just got for free.

Wait a second…

Looking at the golden pill, a smile naturally blossomed on my face.

After choosing your path, to synchronise with the world system, you go through a body reconstruction, to enable you to feel mana and the rest of the benefits, but if you don't have the necessary energies, you could fail.

That's why people in the slums and the poor side of the world generally passes that chance.

Strength is cool and all, but there's no point in it if you die during the process.

After some time, the process of dolling me up must have ended because I found myself in front of Aaron and I could feel the incredulous gaze on me.

"Would you look at that, yes this will do. Send the rest to his room in the dorms, a little gift for my manwhore of the night."

I didn't even disagree, whatever this rest he intended was, this manwhore would take it.

Maybe it was the new clothing, or the strange comfort of the disguise, but I stepped forward with confidence and pulled Aaron by his waist.

"Should this bitch start getting in to character, my employer?"

"Truly a magnificent whore. No need let's go, you have a long night with your path and whatever shit. I don't care."

I stepped forward to open the door of the car and after he entered, I followed suit.

This whole act, the idea of being in disguise and trick someone was exhilarating. Never in my life would I have the chance to play like this and there really was no big consequences, at the end of the day, this was but a petty squabble between teens.

Ahhh maybe the shifter path is not bad after all… it is still dangerous but… oh well.

The ride went on and soon enough we were in front of a nice white villa, with a huge garden and whatever fancy decorations. If even this was not up to part to how the main families lived, I really was not sure what life was anymore.

"Come on Crow, and stop gawking at this peasant's house. We have a play up ahead."

Peasant… haaaa I really am the bottom of the bottom.

Nevertheless I put my arm around his shoulder, I would have gone for the waist, but the boy was short.

I then turned to him and with a mischievous glint in my eyes asked.

"Do you want to make a statement or just talk ?"

"Of course a statement, be rough."

I didn't waste any more of my breath. As soon as the doorbell rung and I heard movement behind, I pinned Aaron on the column of the archway before the entrance and sealed his lips with mine.

He struggled at first, but when he opened his mouth to breathe, my tongue slipped in and all his moans and whimpers… I swallowed them all.

I swirled and played and when I heard the door opening, I pushed harder, my hand gripping his ass like it was a life buoy.

"AAROOOOOONNN!!!"
