The Bad Ending Party - Bystander Edition

Two exhausting months have passed since that emergency quest appeared. A massive ice troll was rampaging in the north, and the guild called upon the best adventurers to deal with it. Being B-rank, Lihan would just be troll food if he went there, so his party members Rey and Ashe temporarily teamed up with Calypso, an S-rank warrior, to chase after the big rewards. Lihan knew Calypso's reputation—he's the guild's top playboy, cocky as hell. But Lihan trusted the girls, figuring two months wasn't forever. "We need this reward for Lihan, we'll be back as soon as possible," Ashe said before leaving, with her usual soft smile. "This'll take a few weeks, so don't do anything stupid while we're gone," Rei echoed. She said it harshly, as always, but there was genuine concern in her tone that she awkwardly tried to hide. They're strong, they're S-rank, and nothing bad could happen, Lihan thought. How wrong he was! He learned about the adventurers' return from a servant. No messenger or postal bird from Ashe and Rey came to him. Strange, but they didn't bother warning him about their return. In the guild hall, a victory party is in full swing. Bards play upbeat tunes, ale flows like a river, and adventurers swap exaggerated stories about the battle with the troll and the harsh northern expedition. But Lihan don't see Rey and Ashe in the crowd. Pushing through the drunken throng, he spots them in one of the private booths. The scene shocks him. Calypso, with a smug grin, possessively holds the girls by their shoulders, pulling them close, and they cling to him like cats. Calypso's hand rests atop Rey's breast. It's impossible to believe she'd allow anyone such liberties, but she does. Even stranger are their outfits. Their usual adventuring gear has been replaced by something that can hardly be called clothing—something meant more to display than to conceal. Ashe is wearing a black bodysuit with such an indecent cutout that it exposes most of her chest, stomach, and stops barely an inch above her pubic area. At the waist, it's cinched slightly by a copper clasp. The upper part, revealing almost her entire chest, is barely held up by thin, crisscrossed straps with a silver ring at the intersection. The straps attach to a black leather choker around the elf's neck, and the whole setup struggles to contain her massive breasts. On her arms are purple fingerless gloves up to the elbows, secured by rings on her middle fingers. Her legs are clad in some dark, opaque thigh-high stockings and pointed high-heeled shoes. From the bodysuit's waist hangs a short, pink silk sash, slightly covering but provocatively outlining her hips and ass. She has a barbell with gemstones in her navel, and her long elven ears are densely adorned with rings, some connected by thin gold chains. She never had piercings before. Rey is no better. She's dressed in a revealing qipao with a high collar. Her arms and shoulders are bare, and the cutout at the lower chest reveals her full, seductive curves. On her right wrist are multiple dark leather bracelets of varying thickness. From the waist of the dress, slits run on both sides, so her crotch is barely covered by a thin strip of fabric. Obviously, no underwear. But on the exposed skin just above her pubic area, the edges of a tattoo peek out, seemingly in the shape of a monogrammed heart. Only the bandolier on a strap on her thigh reminds Lihan of her old self. On her feet are pointed black ankle boots with heels even higher than Ashe's. Both have makeup: blue-violet eyeshadow and thick lipstick of the same color, which they never used before. Calypso himself, tall and broad-shouldered, with dark hair tied in a ponytail, is clad in his lamellar chestplate, now adorned with the horned skull plate of the ice troll. The hilt of his massive greatsword peeks over his shoulder, and a heavy fur cloak is draped over his back. Ashe and Rei's faces are flushed, and they're breathing heavily as Calypsopulls them closer. Finally, they notice Lihan. "Oh... Lihan..." Ashe says with a smile. But this smile isn't meant for him. She seems to look right through him, as if he's less than nothing. "Sorry, I think we'll go on the next mission without you too." It's clear with whom—with Calypso. And in her beautiful, melodic voice, there's a note of disgust, as if she wants Lihan to disappear quickly but hasn't fully committed. "These quests are just too tough for a little boy..." Rey picks up, infusing the word 'boy' with so much contempt that it chills him inside, "...such a B-rank like you. Please understand." She presses even closer to Calypso. "We'll support this... warrior..." she continues breathlessly, "and you, Lihan, stay where it's safe." Calypso snorts smugly. "You heard them, kid. Go to your room, crawl under the blanket, and jerk your little pea shooter where no one can see. Or whatever you usually do, I don't give a fuck." He guffaws, and the worst part is that the girls' faces break into sly, contemptuous smirks that they barely try to hide. It seems the pleasantries are over...
