9. Ribbit Ribbit Ribbit

"Honey, I love how even if you run a ton in this game, it doesn't tire you out much."

"Right? In real life, your muscles would fatigue, and stamina ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠would play a factor, but games don't have that."

"Yeah. Even sprinting doesn't feel tiring?"

"Oh, really? Then should we give it a try?"

Ye-na, who'd been listening to our conversation, chimed in.

"Unnie wants to run? Suddenly?"

"Yeah. With weather this nice, this breeze, this grass... it just feels so good. And running doesn't tire you out much."

"It's gotta feel like jogging along the Han River. Sounds great! Then I'll take off first~"

"Ah! Ye-na, wait for me~"

Ye-na and Ji-young took off running, and a gentle breeze rustled by, flipping their skirts up to reveal two perfect asses.

"Whoa..." "Oh..."

Jun-sik and I slowly jogged after them, eyes glued to those asses. Every step they took made their firm, bouncy cheeks jiggle enticingly—it was so damn hot, yet somehow artistic too. Like viewing fine art, since both girls were gorgeous. But knowing them personally cranked the lewdness to eleven.

It's the difference between a nude photo of a pretty model and one of a woman you know.

Slurp...

This bastard Jun-sik smacking his lips—it felt like he was eyeing my Ji-young.

But where the hell were they even going?

"Hey! Not that way—the right!"

"Got it~"

They ran off beaming like excited kids, clueless about the path. So cute, so pretty... so fucking hot.

A bit farther, an instance dungeon came into view.

"Guys, let's hit that dungeon."

"Sure~"

What the—? What kind of dungeon name is that? Probably a frog cave, right? No sooner had I thought it than three bipedal frogs appeared right in front of us.

Being bipedal, their hands looked empty—nah, each held something. Clubs, so Club Frogs. If it were spears, it'd be Spear Frogs, I guess?

Ye-na spotted the frogs, pointed excitedly, and yelled.

"Oh? Frogs! Jun-sik-mon! What're you doing? Go on, Jun-sik-mon! Take the hits!"

"Fuck... tank life."

"Kyahahaha, unfair unfair, fireball~"

Jun-sik grumbled as he activated his ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠mana shield and charged. Ye-na spammed spells gleefully. Ji-young smiled and said,

"Honey, this game is so fun."

When the people you're playing with are having a blast, you can't help but get hyped too. It really hits home how much it matters who you're gaming with. Ji-young, a total newbie, was loving it thanks to Jun-sik and Ye-na. Made me happy.

"I'm thrilled to be gaming with you too, my Jyoung. And with Jun-sik's crew, it's even better. Who knew Ye-na would be this pumped?"

We handled the three frogs no problem. Didn't even need my attacks—Ye-na just nuked them with magic. Ribbit ribbit ribbit... what a name. Anyway, deeper into the frog cave, we ran into new ones.

A new one: Water Bomb Frog. No weapon in hand, but it opened its mouth wide and spat a basketball-sized water orb. Bigger than expected.

A basketball of water... that's gotta be like 5 liters?

-Sploosh!

Jun-sik blocked the water bomb with his mana shield and called out,

"Ye-na, try electric spells instead of fire."

"Got it, Jun-sik-mon!"

"Damage incoming soon, so Ji-young, heals please."

"Got it, Jun-sik-mon... I mean, Jun-sik oppa."

Jun-sik shot Ji-young a look like "you too?", and she giggled.

Near the end of the easy fight, I fired a Double Shot at the last water bomb frog's head.

Sensing its doom? It suddenly hurled a water bomb at Ye-na, then took my arrow to the head and burst into light. Ye-na got splashed, falling flat on her ass.

"Mommy!"

A basketball-sized water blob hits hard. Ye-na's HP dipped a tiny bit.

Oof...

Her gray robe soaked through, clinging like a second skin—total body paint effect, every curve visible. Gray hid the see-through bits, thankfully(?).

"Eeeeng... I'm soaked. Jun-sik-mon! What the hell? Why'd it target me?"

"Hmm... weird. Why you?"

"Jun-sik-mon, you slacking?"

"No, I'm tanking fine, this is bullshit..."

"But why'd the frog agro me? Jun-sik-mon, you must've slipped off to slack!"

"Argh, seriously. So unfair."

"Can't do the job right, you slacker~ weirdo~ dummy~"

"Why bring that up now?!"

"Ahahahahaha!"

Ji-young cracked up again at Ye-na's roast. Ye-na's the best at ragging on Jun-sik.

Agro should've stuck to Jun-sik, so it was odd. But speculating wouldn't help, so we pressed on.

Deeper in, Ye-na's soaked robe hugged her tits and ass perfectly. My heart pounded with every step—those full, jiggly cheeks and breasts asserting themselves. I snuck peeks at Ji-young too, feeling busted.

Different from before... a weird, filthy lewdness.

Is this okay? But every glance at Ye-na made my dick throb.

Soon, more club and water bomb frogs.

"Jun-sik-mon! Do it right this time!"

"Fine. Sigh... tank life."

Ye-na's nagging kicked off the fight. Poor Jun-sik. Nah, he deserves it.

Same easy fight, but mid-battle—not even near death—the water bomb frog lobbed one at Ji-young.

"Kyaa!"

Though it didn't look painful, the water bomb seemed pretty impactful. Basketball-sized water means a lot of volume. Ji-young got hit and tumbled too.

"Ji-young, you okay?"

Nothing hurt bad—she popped right up, feisty.

"Yeah, honey. This is nothing~"

Seemed fine, so I arrowed the frogs. Fight ended, and we all hit level 5.

"Ooh, new skills!"

Like Ye-na said, the whole party leveled to 5. Everyone checked their skill windows.

‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠

O? Burst DPS gets burst skills. No-arrow arrow rain? OP. And Extra Arrow passive boosts all damage. +1 arrow per attack? Wow. Checked mine, then looked at Ji-young—her face was weird.

"Ji-young, what's up?"

"Honey, I don't get this skill."

"Which one?"

"Hold on, sharing it."

These two were originals—simple, she'd adapted fine.

Light Butterflies boosts damage taken like Angel's Trial, but hits multiples—not just one target. Theoretically all enemies. But... Contact Heal? Oh my god...
