Harem Reborn

Dave was led around the side of the Inn and back to the front of the building. The road was empty, more so than it had been when Dave had first arrived, and he turned to Jigs before entering the building.

"What are there so few people on the roads?" Dave asked.

"Most are Demons and then most of them are more beast than folk. The Dragons make them stay covered up, so they don't bother coming out much. Not worth it to risk getting sent to the mines, and there are some humans that try to get the Demons in trouble," Jigs explained before turning back to go inside.

Dave was considering that he might have designed this world with a bit too much hatred towards the demonkind. This was what it was now, and Dave would have to deal with the problem he created, as usual.

Dave shook his head and followed Jigs back inside the Inn.

A covered person pulled themselves back into the alley that they had been watching from. They were surprised at the speed that this new adventure returned from the first quest.

Many Demons in the town known as The End had started to take notice of the stranger that just entered the town. Some of them held hope that things might change, while others worried that this new person might bring about more problems in an already problematic life.

Dave entered the tavern once again and was oblivious to all of the things happening around him, but Tequila was watching. She had noticed the Demon that had been watching them while they figured out their Classes.

She had also noticed the one that had been in the alley, and the few that had been looking out windows. This town seems to be filled with people looking for a change, and that was supposed to be his specialty.

As Dave explained about the basement, and his new pet Jibber, Tequila took a look at her own system.

Point Crafting was the System that Dave had given her, but she didn't know a lot about it. From what she had discovered, the System gave her points, and then she could give those points to people or objects.

So far, she had only got one point and wasn't sure who it was going to work to get more. Even though she was no longer under the grip of Reginold, Tequila missed having access to all knowledge at an instant.

Now, she actually had to figure things out, and it was almost like starting as a new player with a walkthrough. Yes, she could see what she could do and the different ways to do it, but these things were all just words and phrases.

Dave was now trying to get a room, but the price Ma was asking seemed highly unreasonable. Dave was starting to get frustrated.

"Five gold a night, sorry, nothing that I can do. This is a price set by the Dragon Lord, Dalzoro himself. I am sorry, I really wish there was something that we could do, you really seem like nice people. No one has ever asked our son's name and we heard you call him by it, very interesting," Ma said.

She was eyeing Dave with a hand on her chin, with an expression that said she was trying to figure something out. Tequila spoke up in Dave's mind, she had just received a mission from her Class.

'Dave, can I give Jigs one of my points? I just got a mission from my Class to change someone's view of something they believe strongly in,' Tequila said in Dave's mind.

'That might be a good idea, but I don't know what kind of effect it will have. This is your System and Class so I want you to use your abilities as you see fit. I trust you and I believe in your judgment, and I think this is why you got this class, you've always been the driver for change,' Dave thought, remembering their fight to change the world and the lives of all the girls.

Dave warned everyone as Tequila emerged from his body, and this time no one passed out. Once fully out, Tequila walked over, and placed a hand onto Jigs's chest, but then turned back to Ma.

"Can I do something for your son?" Tequila asked.

"Umm, sure, can't really do much worse, I guess," Ma said with a gentle smile that belied her callous words.

It was easy to see that this was a sore subject for Ma, so Tequila turned back to Jigs and spoke.

"I bestow a point to you to craft your potential. I will help you reach your dreams," Tequila said as her hand began to glow briefly, but then the light faded.

"Did it work?" Dave asked in confusion, not seeing any physical changes, but the Jigs gave Tequila a big hug.

The boy had tears coming from his eyes as Tequila patted his back. Dave didn't move, not sure how to react, but Jigs let go of Tequila right away and stepped back.

The boy stood up straighter now, and his eyes were more focused and determined. The boy stepped back and bowed deeply and held it at a ninety-degree position.

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You have lifted the form that I have lived under my entire life. I will forever be in your debt and I wish to help you in any way I can!" Jigs shouted with his head still bowed, and not looking up.

"Maybe you could get us a deal on a room? I mean, I am sure we can figure out something…" Dave tried to say but was shoved out of the way as Ma rushed over to her son, grabbing his head in her hands and staring into his eyes.

"How is this possible? You can break the Dragon Lords Miasma?" Ma asked, turning to Tequila, still holding her son's face in her hands.

"I don't know what that is, but I can help improve people. I just wanted to help him, and I think the point that I gave was good for him, right?" Tequila asked.

Ma turned back to her son who stood up straight and looked directly at his mother with a look that spoke of a thinking mind. Even his smile was genuine, and almost splitting his face.

"Yes, you did, but no matter what, I still can't go against the Dalzoro. If I did that we would just end up getting sent to the mines, and would be never heard of again," Ma said with a sigh letting go of Jigs face, turning back to the two.

"I have been thinking about that," Dave said, speaking up. "What if we stay in the cellar? We will take up part of it and you can use the rest to put your things? Jibber will keep the rats that come to fight in line, and we get a place to stay, right?" Dave asked hopefully.

"That is a very good idea, Ma. They could keep the place usable for us, and Henry and I can move the stuff inside that's in the alley. We will also have the drive-through for the merchants that come opened up and they will stop complaining," Jigs explained to his mother.

Ma put a hand to her chin thoughtfully looking back and forth from her son and the two strange people that had just entered her life. She knew that this was going to be trouble no matter how it was spun, but at least this would be in her favor.

"We still need you to pull your weight and bring at least one Demonstrative Ticket a day. I think it's a good idea and maybe they can take Jigs with them if they are going out. If the boy has his head back he should be out earning a keep to make it easier on us," Pa said, walking out from the back kitchen.

"I don't know…" Dave started to say, but Tequila cut him off with a glare, making Dave put his hands up at chest level and back off.

"Yes, we can get Jigs to help up, but Dave is more of a soloist. I, on the other hand, will be fighting different kinds of monsters, so I will accept Jigs's help," Tequila said, still glaring at the now grinning Dave.

"Thank you very much! I will help get a bed down for you two, but you will need to do as my father said. You will have to go get a Demonstrative Ticket from a monster bounty that you get from the Townhall," Jigs explained after bowing again.

Tequila walked over and kissed Dave as she merged into him. She also petted Jibber, but then Dave had to catch him as the hand that was petting him disappeared into Dave's shoulder.

Dave shook his head, walking out of the Inn holding the passed-out Jibber and listening to Tequila giggle frantically in his head.
