"You're heading to the club, right?"
"Yeah."
"But Jeras, your swordsmanship is really unique."
"Haha. It's my own style, but it's pretty mysterious, even to me."
On his way to the swordsmanship club, Jeras ran into Claire and let out a quiet sigh as he noticed her speaking casually to him.
'The required affinity for recruiting her to the party is finally filled, somehow.'
The way to check the required affinity for recruiting Claire to the party in the original story.
It was simply to see if Claire spoke casually to the player or not.
For some reason, after the Demon God Cult raid event vanished, Jeras had put in tremendous effort to raise Claire's affinity.
He'd joined the swordsmanship club she wanted even faster than planned, volunteered as her sparring partner, and stuck by her side for most of his time at the Academy. It would've been harder not to get close.
'But I feel like I'm missing something...'
He was aware that, per the original plan, he should be out and about recruiting other party members by now.
He'd definitely been keeping an eye on key growth events too.
'What is it?'
The nagging feeling that he'd overlooked something crucial wouldn't go away.
But no matter how hard he thought, nothing came to mind. At this point in the game, there were no special events beyond plain farming.
'Party recruitment issues... It's a bit late, but not a real problem. Growth events are just minor ones like the erosion dungeon requests from the janitors.'
Jeras walked behind Claire, who was practically skipping with excitement at the thought of sparring with the club's advisor professor. He had a hunch that just a little more thinking would reveal what it was.
But then a sound shattered his reverie.
Clank.
"Hm?"
It sounded like heavy metal chunks colliding.
If he had to describe it, it was the noise of iron chains rattling against each other.
Wondering where it was coming from, Jeras sought the source and couldn't help but twitch when he saw who was making it.
"Hmmm~ Hm-hmm~"
Clank.
It was Mimi, carrying a wooden box as big as her torso with both hands, beaming brightly as she headed somewhere.
The metallic clanking came from inside the box she held.
Right behind her walked a woman who looked like a janitor, sighing repeatedly while eyeing the box with a complicated gaze. It was clear whatever was inside wasn't normal.
'What the heck is that...'
What could be inside to make that noise?
Jeras didn't particularly want to know, but he couldn't stop being curious.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇ "I see... To think such a being existed."
While Professor McCall was filling out our club founding application for us, he asked about the witch mentioned at the last faculty meeting.
After the meeting ended, I'd heard from Lili that the witch she'd fought in the past was the same one who'd cursed our Ria.
Lili had told Professor McCall everything she knew about the witch, omitting only the parts related to Ria. Now he was diligently taking notes.
Granny Lili was already spilling tales from the olden days when tigers smoked pipes.
Professor McCall, just how serious are you about these ancient stories?
"...Master?"
Lili gently touched the corner of my eye, gazing at me with a shadowed face even in this bright light.
Oh no. Did I accidentally say that out loud?
"No. I just feel like I can tell what you're thinking by looking at your face, Master."
A conversation without me even opening my mouth.
Sorry. Calling you granny was probably too much, even so.
"But if our child with Lili has a kid, I'll become a grandpa and you'll be a grandma for sure."
"Oh my..."
I rubbed Lili's lower belly, conveying my fierce determination to impregnate her someday.
Lili blushed and looked embarrassed.
So cute.
"..."
Maybe jealous that I was only rubbing Lili's belly, Ria gently took my right hand and placed it on her own lower belly, giving me pleading eyes to pet her too.
Of course, a reservation was already in place for our Ria's baby oven, so I stroked it softly.
"..."
As I gazed at Ria, who bowed her head silently with flushed cheeks, pondering how I'd torment her pussy tonight.
"But you were thinking of me as a grandma, weren't you?"
Oh. I'd added some unnecessary commentary.
"Hmph..."
Whether offended by the granny remark, Lili pouted and turned her head slightly away from me.
But in doing so, she subtly offered her right cheek toward me, as if saying she'd forgive me if I gave it a kiss right now.
For our Lili, I could do more than a peck—I'd plant a full hickey!
As I leaned in to leave a temporary kiss mark on Lili's cheek, I paused at the sound of someone running quickly from outside.
Unfortunately, there was only one kid at the Academy who ran around like this.
Bang.
Clank.
"Mimi arrival!"
I'd expected Mimi to show up, but not with that bizarre wooden box.
"Mashta! Mimi's here!"
Clank. Clank.
As Mimi strutted confidently toward me like always, the mysterious clanking grew louder.
She was asserting her presence so much I had to ask.
But first.
*Smack.*
"Hehe."
Lili had been glaring daggers at Mimi for interrupting the kiss she'd been waiting for, so I surprise-pecked her cheek.
"Mimi? What's that?"
"Hehehe. This is something to make Mimi and Mashta even closer!"
Clank.
Eager to show it off, Mimi set the box on the floor and pointed at it, urging me to open it.
"Hm."
What is it? She didn't get scammed into buying something weird, did she?
But considering it was something Mimi brought out of the blue, it felt plausible.
And something to strengthen our bond? How'd she snag something that convenient during a quick errand?
"Hng!"
Still, seeing her so proud, I decided to react positively.
"Alright, let's see what's inside."
Click.
Grabbing the lid and lifting—no seal, it opened easily.
So this was what made Mimi so confident.
"...A collar?"
A dark, cylindrical cuff about Mimi's neck size.
And a fairly long chain attached to it.
I inspected it closely in case it was something else, but no—it was definitely a collar.
Though the material made it no ordinary collar; more like an iron one.
"Correct!"
Thrilled that I'd guessed right, Mimi leaped into my arms, and I caught her with open arms.
She nuzzled her face into my chest, so I grabbed her plump ass with both hands.
"...But why'd you bring this?"
"Huh? Obviously for walks!"
Hm. Obviously?
"Walks?"
A walk with a collar. The only thing that came to mind was a naked walk, but I doubted our Mimi had that in mind.
Our Mimi was the type who just saw my dick and rushed over to grind her pussy on it. No way she'd think up play involving tools like this on her own.
"Yeah! Walks! Mimi wears this, and Mashta takes Mimi for a walk!"
"I see. How about we try it in the garden at home tonight?"
But it seemed she really meant a naked walk. Our Mimi's amazing—coming up with this herself and suggesting it to her master.
A naked walk...
Her perky, jiggly buns twitching to tempt my cock.
Her seven tails swishing, a few slyly brushing my dick.
Then at some point, she'd turn her head, lick her lips, lift her ass high, and wink her pussy at me, eyes begging when I'd fuck her. I'd charge right in...
"Why the garden? Mimi wants to do it on the village walking path!"
"Huh? Even so, a naked walk outside is a bit..."
"Naked walk? Mimi meant like walking the other dogs you see on the path!"
Mimi tilted her head, exuding an aura of "What are you talking about?"
...Not that? She didn't want a naked walk?
"Mimi meant like walking the other dogs you see on the path!"
...Ahem. I misunderstood.
"...Of course, if Mashta wants, Mimi can do naked too..."
...Really?
