Chapter Title: Looting the Warehouse (3)

A B+ grade core from a virgin woman, no less.
That was an incredible haul.
'I figured the best I could hope for was a C-grade core if things went perfectly.'
Luck had been on my side.
In this world, B+ is a high rank. Even for me, whose stats match those of a low-tier A-Class Adventurer, the system's evaluation of my physical abilities is stuck at C-grade.
B+ is a level that's hard for me to even aspire to right now.
The rest of the cores, excluding this one, topped out at C- to D+ at best. The others were all hovering between E and F.
'Anyway, with this...'
I'd finally obtained the dungeon core I'd been longing for.
Part of me wanted to pour mana into it right now, activate the core, and awaken the spirit slumbering inside. But it wasn't the right time yet.
Dungeons form the instant mana is infused into a dungeon core, right there on the spot.
I needed to find a suitable location first and settle in before awakening it.
'But this dungeon core... since it's a woman, does that mean I can train her?'
It said she was female and a virgin, so I had to wonder.
Not that I'd have to rub my dick on this rock and shoot pleasure fluid on it or anything ridiculous like that to "train" her.
Of course, such delusions didn't last long.
'Looks like she'll need a physical body to manifest.'
I wriggled my tentacles as I reached that conclusion.
Thinking about it seriously, a dungeon core was probably just a vessel containing the soul of a "dungeon guardian spirit."
The gender belonged to that soul itself.
Which meant the dungeon core was essentially a purely mental entity. No physical body for sexual acts.
It was a shame, but I accepted it. I wasn't so twisted that I'd try sticking my dick in a rock.
The name of this dungeon core I'd acquired was Hina.
Just hearing the name made her sound like she might have a sweet personality, but who knew? Better to prepare for the worst.
'Dungeon core issue resolved.'
I'd accomplished my original goal for coming to this warehouse.
Now I just needed to leave and find a site for the dungeon. There was nothing more to do here.
'Still feels a bit unsatisfying.'
Even though it was an abandoned warehouse now, this place had once been a treasure trove of the Dragonkin. Leaving with just one dungeon core felt like I was missing out.
Squirm...
Rummage...
I poked around the warehouse, examining the items one by one to see if there was anything else worth taking.
But there was no real harvest.
Creak, rattle...
'Nothing here at all.'
The only gains were a few gold bars and some jewels.
That would drive an ordinary person mad with joy, but for me, now a tentacle monster, it wasn't all that useful.
Still, money was better than nothing. Who knew when it might come in handy later?
'Would've been nice to find some weapons. Or armor.'
Not for me.
I didn't need weapons or armor. With my monster body, every part of me was both weapon and armor.
But my women weren't so lucky.
They could benefit from gear.
High-quality weapons and combat attire would greatly boost their combat power and safety.
A dagger for Piona, a staff or magic item for Amy, a ranged weapon for Rosa, a gladius for Yuri.
Elrine was a civilian, so no weapons for her, but some protective insurance item would be reassuring.
But I couldn't conjure what wasn't there.
Resigned, I took the dungeon core "Hina," the other female dungeon cores just in case, and the gold bars and jewels as I left. The amount wasn't much, so it was easy to carry.
To avoid losing anything, I stored all the items inside my body.
With my fluid form, keeping things stashed away like this was no problem.
Squirm...
Having exited the warehouse, I slithered slowly up the corridor.
'The girls are all in the bath.'
Thanks to my Detection Tentacles picking up everything in a wide radius, I instantly knew they were in the bathhouse.
If I focused, I could hear an ant crawling or the wind brushing the grass within range. Inside my detection zone, I was the ultimate master of information warfare.
But keeping my detection at max range and sensitivity all the time was mentally exhausting, so usually I tried not to overdo it.
Still, curiosity about what the girls were talking about and doing drew my Detection Tentacles toward the bathhouse.
Splash, splash...
"Eek, that tickles... Stop it."
'?'
The first voice I heard was Amy's.
Along with it came some lewd sounds.
Squelch, squelch...
Someone was kneading Amy's breasts roughly. The obscene sound of wet tits reached my Detection Tentacles.
"Hey, after all that sucking and fondling from Lord Tentacle, don't your boobs feel bigger? Wow, they're so soft..."
"Eek... Rosa! Stop touching them."
"Why so stingy? It's not like they'll wear out."
"They will wear out."
"Huh? How?"
"How? Boobs wear out if you touch them."
"Wait, really?"
"Of course. Keep touching them, and they might even shrink."
"What kind of nonsense is that? If boobs wore out from touching, there wouldn't be any left in the world."
What kind of conversation was this?
Sound alone wasn't enough. I activated "Mana Detection" to peer into the bathhouse.
Not as crystal-clear as my vision tentacles, but it provided human-level clarity. More than enough to see what was happening.
Rosa was groping Amy's breasts, and Amy was earnestly protesting while being groped.
"Think about it. Swords wear down with use, clothes fray from wearing. Boobs are the same. They're precious, so you can't just handle them roughly!"
"Precious..."
That's when Piona chimed in slyly.
"Amy might have a point."
"What? You too? You're seriously saying boobs wear out?"
Piona nodded at Rosa's words.
"Constant stimulation can make skin more sensitive. Friction's an issue too."
"See?!"
Amy crowed triumphantly, and Rosa's expression soured.
"Hold on. Am I the only normal one here? Seriously?"
"Anyway, what if they do wear out? We have to treat them gently. What if they wear out before Lord Tentacle can touch them?"
Rosa eyed Piona suspiciously at her words.
"You usually tell Lord Tentacle not to touch your boobs because they get in the way of moving around, and now you're having noble thoughts like that?"
"Huh? Uh, that's just..."
As Piona's face flushed and Rosa grinned slyly, Amy poked Rosa's cheek.
"Anyway, if you get it, let go now."
"Nah. Thinking about it, even if they do wear out, yours could use shrinking. What is this? Too big."
Rosa grabbed Amy's breasts and shook them up and down.
Amy's chest was definitely huge. Violently so. Rosa and Piona had generous "big tits" themselves, but Amy's surpassed that level.
"Sigh. Ask Lord Tentacle to touch yours a lot too."
"I want to, but he likes my mouth the most."
"That's 'cause you suck so well... Hot, now!"
"Heehee, not falling for it."
Mid-conversation, Amy lunged at Rosa, but Rosa easily dodged.
While Amy, Rosa, and Piona bickered and played, Yuri and Elrine soaked quietly in the hot tub in the corner.
'Business as usual.'
Piona, Amy, and Rosa chattering noisily, Yuri and Elrine quiet. Just like always.
The women were enjoying their rare bath so much that sociable Amy even invited the other two.
"Elrine, play with us! Yuri sis, join us too!"
"Uh, huh?"
"Together?"
"Quick, quick!"
"Ah, wait...!"
Splash, splash...
Amy dragged Elrine and Yuri into the lukewarm tub.
Yuri could've resisted if she wanted, but she let Amy lead her by the hand.
The five women splashed water, groped breasts, talked about me, and debated bizarre topics, having a blast.
"By the way, Yuri sis."
"Yes?"
"Can I touch your ears... just once?"
Amy's eyes sparkled with curiosity at Yuri's twitching ears, but Yuri shook her head firmly.
"No."
"Aww..."
Amy pouted disappointedly, but Yuri was resolute.
"Only Master can touch my ears..."
Blushing as she spoke, Yuri made Amy smack her lips before glancing slyly at Yuri's chest.
"What about your boobs then?"
"My boobs...?"
"These okay?"
"Ah. Y-Yeah, just touching... is fine...... Eek......!"
Squelch...
"Wow, sis's boobs feel amazing."
Elrine was 21 like Piona, Amy, and Rosa, while Yuri was 27. But her catfolk race had such a long lifespan that she looked the youngest of the group.
Seeing her like this made her seem like a little sister getting her chest fondled by big sis.
Especially since Yuri had the smallest breasts of the five, amplifying that vibe.
Ranking them by bust size: Amy, Elrine, Piona, Rosa, Yuri.
Of course, Yuri wasn't flat at all. Hers were large. Amy and Elrine were just so voluptuous that she seemed smaller by comparison.
'Man, this is nice.'
Just watching pretty women together soothed my heart. Seeing them enjoy their bath felt healing.
I could've barged in for a 6P harem orgy right then, but since this was our first real break in ages, I didn't want to disturb them.
I watched their bath, and only after they finished did I thrust my dicks at them, plunging into each of their pussies.
"Ahh! Lord Tentacle...!"
"Haaang!"
With so many tentacles available, I could handle all five at once.
True 6P sex, impossible for a human body—tentacles only.
The problem was, after all that fun, they were covered in my pleasure fluid and needed another bath.
Thanks to that, we pulled an all-nighter and didn't leave the warehouse until morning.
