Chapter 61 Party Favors Party 3 (2/2)

Other camera's showed somewhat similar scenes of sexual and physical abuse. There were even a few times Laz saw guests actually having sex with their pets in out of the way areas. The guests, guys to be specific, would then wipe themselves off and continue to walk around like nothing happened. A few times, the guys didn't even bother to clean up their pets who were then forced to crawl around with bits of juice leaking out of them.

Laz didn't know what to feel about this anymore, but he knew that basically every person at this party was some of the worst trash of society. The worst part was that all of these guests were probably under the age of 18 and they would probably only get worse as they grew up. It made him sick, in many different ways.

It was about now that Laz noticed the last body guard had entered the room and the door shut.

The old man who stood at the front expressionlessly finally made a sound like clearing his throat to get everyone's attention.

”Everyone. We thank you for the pleasure of your company tonight, even though we are sure none of you actually want to be here. It's not easy ensuring these young masters stay protected despite their apparent need to do dangerous and detestable things. But this is what we are paid for after all. It's also better than risking your life for breadcrumbs in a battlefield somewhere due to some politicians having a cock fight.”

This statement drew more than one chuckle from the assembled men. Laz could tell that quite a few of these guys had been in that type of situation before. He couldn't help but feel that for these hardened men, this type of job was pretty easy, if not dull.

”Fear not though brothers. We will have a bit of a special event that all of you can participate in later if you would like and earn some extra cash along with satisfying everyone's love of a good gamble. I'm sure all of you can guess what I'm getting at. There is no worse sin than when a man forged in blood loses his edge. Just keep in mind that although we won't hold death against anyone, it might bring some trouble to your young masters so stop before landing a killing blow alright?” The old man asked with a knowing glint in his eye. He seemed to be able to tell that although these men who had similar lives mostly got along, they also held a lot of pride. Being beaten wasn't just humiliating, it could also impact their jobs and therefore, some men wouldn't be able to admit defeat.

Some were also older than others or trained in things like weapons that couldn't be used. As such, they would feel it unfair to lose and would fight that much harder because of it.

”To help with this, we will keep it to a three knockdown victory condition, alright?” All the men seemed to nod and expressed their agreement. Laz just shook his head as well to go along with the crowd. He didn't think he would be participating and he didn't think Kennedy would want him to either. He was basically half, if not a quarter the age of everyone else here.

The man then spoke about the course of events for the night including various exits, medical areas and other information they would want to know to protect their charge. Laz listen on as well and memorized everything he was told while comparing it to the information he had gained by sensing around earlier. He was able to determine that there were no lies in the old man's words.

Watching all these grizzled veterans, Laz couldn't help but wonder what their personal thoughts were about what the guests were up to. Even if these men were cold-blooded killers, watching these kids engage in this type of behavior had to garner some sort of a reaction from them. And if not them, what would the parents think about their kids coming to a sex and drugs party right after they got out of high school for the day.

'The guards are employed by the parents so they had to report the behavior, don't they?'

As Laz wasn't rich, he probably didn't understand how this kind of thing worked. Would the guards report what the kids did all night? Yes, but they would obviously leave out a few key parts. The problem the body guards faced was that if they told everything that happened, the kids were more than able to get the guard fired. On a similar note, the parents also knew this problem existed. If they wanted a real report, the only way they could get that would be to never mention it to their child and therefore, not punish them for it.

This was the only way to know what the kids were actually doing.

As Laz was listening to the dangerous old man and thinking about what kind of fucked up parents would let their kids do these kinds of things, he noticed that Kennedy had appeared on the party floor.

As she walked past the monitored area, Laz was surprised to see her holding a leash. It seemed she also had a pet and from the looks of it, it was a female fox.
