Chapter 1199 There's Always The Good And The Troublesome Guests
(MC POV)
Taking care of an inn like this was quite an experience to be honest. Even though my omniscience helped quite a bit in this, I tried to limit my reliance on it to a minimum.
In Manami\'s case, she adapted to her new role extremely quickly, as if she had been doing it her entire life.
I suspect that she had also integrated the knowledge of this World\'s Manami with her own so that she could get used to the scenario easier.
"Welcome dear guests to Fox\'s Den~ I hope your stay with us will be a pleasant one~" She greeted the newcomers at the entrance with a customer service smile.
The group of young men, whom I presume to be Elite Practitioners from a nearby Sect, were understandably stunned by Manami\'s appearance at the entrance, all of them simply staring at her with wide eyes. It\'s hard not to when a woman radiating an aura of beauty appears like that in front of you after all.
Manami either did not care of did not notice their surprise and simply stepped aside to gesture towards the inn\'s interior, "Please follow me to check you in to our inn~"
The guests needed a moment more to recover their wits before following her in, their eyes glued to the way her tails waved in the air hypnotically.
I actually believe she was doing that on purpose.
Manami brought them to the counter where I was positioned before excusing herself to return to the inn\'s entrance.
The young men watched her leave and only returned to their senses after she was out of sight, allowing me to address them.
"Good morning dear guests. Have you made reservations?"
Their leader nodded slowly, "Err… Yeah… Under the name of Heng from Pi Gu Sect."
I shifted my gaze downwards to start sifting through our record book to look for that reservation.
Those men then took that chance to start whispering amongst themselves.
"Damn, so the rumours are true… The staff here are sexy as hell!"
"Hey, do you think we can get them to come service us?"
"Of course! I got some money saved up! All we have to do is offer them some and they\'d definitely do it!"
I cleared my throat and addressed them without looking up from my records, "My apologies, but my staff do not engage in such activities with our guests. If you\'d like, the nearest whorehouse is in the next town about an hour by horseback from here."
The leader scowled at me, "Huh? Aren\'t you just the counter staff? How about I give you one silver to shut up?"
I stopped searching through the book to look up at him, "I think you might not have heard me the first time. I said my staff do not engage in such activities with our guests, if you persist, then I cannot guarantee that you would enjoy your stay here."
"Tch… Alright, alright, we got it. Just sign us in already."
I didn\'t need omniscience to know that he was just saying that to get me to shut up.
Deciding that it would be better for them to learn of the consequences themselves, I went ahead to check them in and handed them the keys to their room.
"These are your keys young master Heng, one of my staff will be here to escort you and your friends to your rooms in a moment. There are seats over there for you to rest your feet in the meantime."
The group of three men gave me dirty looks before their leader snatched the keys from the counter and stormed off.
Manami then returned again, though this time by herself and wearing a small smile on her face.
"Ara, ara? I didn\'t know we would also receive such troublesome guests, Master~ Shall I take care of them?"
I shook my head, "It\'s fine. Our staff are all capable girls, they would be able to handle some arrogant young masters on their own."
"Ufufufu~ If that is what Master says so~ Ara? We have more guests, please excuse me~"
She went back to the entrance where another group of guests were looking around the entrance hall in awe, this one being three young girls who also look like Practitioners judging by their robes.
Manami greeted them with much more courtesy than she had with the men and brought them over to the counter.
Their eyes immediately widened when they saw me.
"Master Lin?!"
I raised an eyebrow at them, only just realising they were wearing the robes that signify their position as Elite Practitioners of Heaven Sect.
"Oh hello there. It\'s always nice seeing familiar faces here. I assume you are Miss Xiong and company?" I greeted them, having seen only one entry in my records that had listed itself as guests from Heaven Sect.
The first girl nodded her head vigorously, "Yes, Master Lin!"
I started to sign her in when she leaned on the counter excitedly, "So is it true, Master Lin?! That you found love and decided to leave the Sect and walk away from the path of being a Practitioner?"
I chuckled, "That is correct. I had found someone who was more important to me than being a Practitioner."
They noticed that my gaze was directed at Manami who was showing me a genuine smile. Although hidden behind that smile was a look that told me that she would very much want to pounce on me right now.
The girls put two and two together and they quickly realised who I was talking about, all of them letting out "kyaa, kyaa" sounds while blushing up to their ears.
As luck would have it, the three men from before were being led to their rooms by one of my staff and they overheard our conversation.
"Wait… That\'s… Master Lin?"
"The one that\'s said to be the strongest Practitioner in the Earthen Plane?"
"Tch, please. Why would someone like that be here, use your head a little. It\'s obviously just a lie so that he can get those girls. Let\'s go already," The leader scoffed, pushing his two friends away from us.
It\'s a good thing that they whispered those words so I was the only one who managed to hear what they said.
Although now I\'m feeling a little worried about what kind of stupidity they might involve themselves in if they were already showing such signs of idiocy…
Oh well, worst comes to worst, nothing a little bit of reality manipulation can\'t fix~
Not gonna lie though, I had hoped that I would only deal with normal guests but I guess my \'easy life\' would always be filled with something of this scale…
