53 Chapter 49

The twins soon brought back a tall glass and poured me what looked to be a soda and whiskey combo while they poured themselves different flavors of what I thought to be Margaritas in glasses. They even went to the effort of sticking those little umbrellas in the drinks as well.

"My name is Melanie Malachite, and this is my sister Miltiades," The white dress-wearing twin said as we relaxed into our booth obviously trying to break the ice and get negotiations underway as to how much my gold would be worth in the local currency, Lien.

"Call me Melanie... I will ignore you, should you call me by that name." The now named red dress-wearing woman spoke throwing her twin a glare for calling her by her full name.

"Hmm, it's nice to meet you both. So, let's get down to business I am willing to sell off thirty ounces of gold now in unmarked bars." They both shared a look obviously doing some weird twin speech before turning back to me.

"That will cover the cost of the papers and more but if you want any significant amount of cash, we need more gold." They said in unison.

Honestly, I just needed the papers as I could fairly easily use my magic to pull up some gold from an old, depleted mine as such a place would definitely have a bunch of minute amounts of the metal in its walls that just didn't warrant being mined for.

"Here is another five then," I said shrugging thinking it couldn't hurt to have a good bit of cash for Beacon and to get some new stuff as I lost a good bit of my packed stuff when my backpack got shredded and then pulled out three palm-sized bars of gold and another one that was half the size of the others.

I passed over the gold to Melanie who visibly strained as she flexed her hands and pinched the gold to test it. "It's good." She said simply as her eyes gained a bit more respect for me as other than just another single business or even a mark to be used.

"So, when can I get the identification, and will it be able to stand up to Beacon Academies." I asked Malenie as her sibling silently left to go get my money.

"Hmm yes we have people on our payroll at various academies and so long as you are somewhat capable then the transcripts to get into Beacon won't have any problems at all." Malenie snorted as she waved her hands in a what can you do motion. "Actually, the whole transcripts thing is kinda a joke... I mean they literally do a life-or-death entrance exam every year and with dozens of people dying within the exam. The teachers of Beacon then treat the survivors of the hellish initiation as students regardless of their background."

'That makes total sense in hindsight...' I thought with my lips twitching at the realization.

"Alright so can I get my aura unlocked." I asked but Malenie shook her head.

"Wait till my sister gets here and I will do it and we will have you sign one of the sets of transcripts we got ready for people like you." She muttered towards the end, and I realized that Jaune who got his fake transcripts along with the Branwen siblings' way back when weren't outliers, so I just asked Malenie how common they were.

"Ohhh we sell a good few dozen a year... I mean most students at beacon graduated some kind of Hunter preparatory academy like Signal. and are fast tracked into the school without any fuss but honestly most of beacons students come from outside of Vale as most students grow up outside of the cities protection and know how dangerous Grimm and the bandits that overrun a village or town every few weeks, so they desire to become strong enough to defend themselves." Malenie then shrugged as she sighed. "Well, that and Hunters get paid extremely well."

Miltia then made an appearance as she strutted up the stairs and I couldn't help but send an extra glance at her as she walked over confidently with an envelope that she put down on the table in front of me.

Both of those girls although not all that busty knew how to use their svelte figures as they walked in their dresses. They truly used their beauty as a weapon as Miltia who had arm blades had a bit more of her cleavage showing to distract her possible target from her blades and her sister who had blades on her heels had a shorter dress length so instead of men looking at feet in a fight morel likely a man would attempt to snatch a peak up her skirt as she was using her bladed heels to kick her target.

"Alright, I will unlock your Aura... Just don't do anything weird when I am doing it." Melanie huffed with a bit of pink reaching her cheeks.

Melanie stood up from her side of the table and I could tell she was no longer strutting over to me as she almost nervously sat beside me.

"Is something wrong?" I asked seeing how awkward she was being.

She threw me a light glare before it disappeared, and she gawked at me. "Wait so you really haven't had your aura activated yet?!"

Even Miltia flinched and stared at me like I was some exotic creature as she asked. "Then what was that summon thing that smashed that goon into the ground?"

I couldn't help but snicker as even she didnt even know the dudes name and just called him a goon but I shrugged not wanting to even make the joke of having 'magic' as only women basically could have magic in this world.

Honestly RWBY did have a bit of that 'girl rule and boys drool' vibe as look at the male cast in the series.

Jaune- Incompetent to put simply

Ren- Twink, with Sasuke level obsession in killing the Grimm that slaughtered his hometown.

Qrow- Alcoholic with Semblance that made him a loner so he didnt hurt people with his bad luck aura.

Tai Yang Xiaolong, Yangs dad, -Can't keep a woman as they either die or leave him with a daughter.

Literally every named male character in the series has a major personal deficiency in comparison to the female cast that basically all had family issues at their core.

"I don't know what you're talking about... So why the hesitance in unlocking my aura?" I evaded making the twins roll their eyes at my evasion.

Malenie bit her lip before she shared a look with Miltia who nodded. "Well, unlocking someone else's Aura is best explained as the person activating it sending a piece of their own soul within the others soul, taking a hold of that person's soul and the piece of the soul they put into it and by pulling the person's soul inside out brings the person's soul into the material world granting them Aura and in time a Semblance that reflects upon them as a person." She explained with a blush to her face.

"Basically, it feels like soul sex for women unless there's already a strong family bond between the people... and that's why it is common for women to offer such a thing to men they plan to marry..." Miltia snarked at the way that Malenie was squirming in place I couldn't help but blush a bit as she unknowingly showed off her cleavage with how she was hugging herself.

I couldn't help but think that maybe asking a dubiously criminal woman was possibly a bad choice to be mucking about with my soul, but then I remembered how I allowed Emil, a robot with the soul of a human a person who shattered said soul into thousands of pieces and was insane to bring out my magic.

I took Melanie's hand as I wore a wry smile. "Look Melanie, I plan to go to Beacon and become a Hunter for a number of reasons. If I get the opportunity to engage in some soul love to make my dream a reality with a woman like you... Then I would remember this day for a long while." Miltia almost ruined the atmosphere as she covered her mouth to hold in a squeal, but Malenie only had eyes for me as she used her hand that wasn't holding my own to sneak her bare hand under my shirt in one smooth motion to rest her hand on my chest over my heart.

"For it is in strife that we become a legend. Through this we become a paragon of strength and glory to rise above all, infinite in distance and unbound by death. I release your soul and by my shoulder stand beside You." Malenia chanted but it was like she was speaking underwater as I felt her dark gold-tinged soul reach into my own soul gently.

Her soul broke off a small piece and drifted into my own with the piece turning into a small hand which took hold of my soul and turned it inside out and as my soul ballooned outwards with a dark red glow, my soul seemed to encompass Malenie's body making her squirm and I couldn't help the full body twitch as it felt like my entire body was getting massaged whereas her feelings were far more sexual.

Malenie slouched over shivering and finally seemed to lose her strength as she fully leaned into me keening softly as she shivered. "Your soul was so big... It almost smothered my own in the backlash."

"Hey big boy." Miltia said with a mischievous grin. "Me and my sister both have a room in the back, and we can tell you all about Vale, Beacon and the local hotspots..." As I went to refuse and take the envelope of cash to go stay in a hotel or something Miltia continued. "As a foreigner with no car do you really wanna wander around till you find a hotel? Come on! We won't bite will we Malenie?" Miltia goaded and Malenie absently shook her head.

"Nope no biter's here hehe." She giggled still leaning against me.

....

Twins Basil... Twins. Only excuse I need at this point.

"Alright lead on Miltia." I snorted as I picked up Miltia in a princess carry whined for a moment at losing her hugging target but then she realized she was now able to wrap her arms around my neck and start light chewing on it as she pressed her chest against my shirt.
