Breakthrough!
Tia jammed the chair Riana had been sitting on under the door handle and retreated with me.
"Shall we break through the wall?"
"The holy barrier?"
"If we just wipe off the blood, it should be possible."
Her hands trembled as she wiped away the bloodstains.
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
"Open the door!!"
"Open it right now, Tia!"
……
Let's think this through calmly. It was an impulsive act born of anger, but it wasn't entirely unplanned. I just hadn't expected to play this card so soon.
Monsters have their own ways of surviving. Depending on how the kingdom responds... the difficulty changes drastically. To survive...
I used my Tentacle Sense to map out the interior of the church headquarters.
10 seconds... 20 seconds... Scan complete.
"We're on underground level 3 of the church HQ. Breakthrough to the right."
"There'll be people waiting outside the door, won't there? Is that okay?"
"Wait."
Hiding in pussy holes no longer had any meaning. Riana already knew my position.
Tentacle monsters only moved according to my will, so our organization was excellent... but that also made our overall movements easy to read. Just like Shiroko had done in the Monster Forest, Riana must have noticed I wasn't with the main force.
In that case...!
In Progress
"Kyaa!"
I climbed onto Tia's breasts. Then I flattened my body out thin like a skimmed stone. An application of Flesh Transformation.
My body soon transformed into a thin layer covering Tia's upper body like protective tights.
"This is..."
"Uncomfortable?"
"...It's ecstatic!!"
...That was an unexpected reaction.
If hiding inside wasn't an option, I'd reveal myself on the outside and protect Tia as an exoskeleton instead.
Tentacle Armor
What the hell. I just clung on like putting on clothes, and my body perverted itself to fit the purpose. I didn't know it could do that.
If a skill popped up, that meant it had some effect, right?
'An unexpected harvest.'
After the sewer battle, my level had skyrocketed, but I hadn't been in any life-threatening situations since... so the growth potential dormant in my body was finally blooming belatedly.
Squeeze. I cradled Tia's massive milk jugs with my entire body.
"Chokgoe being pressed so tight against me... Kyaa...!"
BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!
"Open it! Tia! Last warning!"
"Breakthrough in one go."
"Yesss!"
I grew tentacles from Tia's chest. My body normally had various tentacles wriggling around, but these were especially long and rigid dick tentacles. Over 3 meters each. One, two—I multiplied them.
With the grown tentacles, I grabbed the fallen torture technician's body.
"Ugh... Ah..."
I hadn't completely crushed her skull, but she was still conscious? Surprising.
'It would have been better if she'd passed out.'
I ripped the torture technician's legs apart sideways, aimed at her asshole, and shoved my dick in.
Crunch, crackle.
"Ugh... Ack...!! What... are you..."
It's clenching so tight.... I was careful not to get excited, but forcing my way into a young woman's tight hole was turning me on if I was honest.
I shoved the glans through the gap created by pushing her panties aside and thrust the tentacle into her guts.
"Oobuh, guk...!!"
Passing her S-shaped colon.... Like skewering her on a spit, I pierced straight through. Climbing up through her organs, the tentacle emerged from her mouth.
The torture technician convulsed, eyes rolling back from the unimaginable violation.
"Gurgh... Kek... Gek... Eek..."
Piercing a woman's soft body with a powerfully reinforced tentacle was no challenge. It would leave massive aftereffects on her body, though.
By my calculations, turning the whole body into erogenous zones required 500x aphrodisiac fluid. But I'd only injected about 50x while piercing her.
Skewered on the spit, the woman thrashed her limbs in agony.
"Gek... Gulk... Kek... Kek......"
"Ready?"
Tia opened the door, and I thrust her body forward.
"Hik!"
"W-What is this...!"
While they hesitated at the sight of their colleague skewered like squid on a tentacle, eyes rolled back...
"Go!"
Wrapped in protective holy barriers, we charged toward the exit.
High levels, all of them. If they fought fair, it'd never end!
"Block them!"
"Tayer's still alive!"
"Taking hostages!"
"You guys shouldn't be the ones complaining about that."
Didn't you kidnap Tia to end this? Come on, make way. The skewered pussy's coming through!!
We ascended to the second floor stairs, leading with the torture technician's pathetic pussy-spread pose, and the human shield tactic proved more effective than expected.
"Surface soon."
"Should we head back to the villa like this and prepare to fight!?"
Tia said as she ran hard. Meanwhile, like a sports bra, I'd been gripping her enormous breasts tight to prevent pain, feeling their vibrations. This was kinda exciting.
"No. Going back would just endanger the hatchery."
The hatchery ran nonstop. It was essential for victory.
Produce tentacle monsters en masse from the hatchery at the Recovery Center, spread them through the capital to expand the damage zone. To maintain this, the main body group needed to draw attention and dribble around a bit.
If we didn't create the situation by taking risks, the enemy would smash the hatchery and end this inconvenience.
'Can't let that happen.'
From my first appearance 8 years ago in the Monster Forest, to now in the kingdom's underground sewers...
[Can't beat the main body? Attacking elsewhere is pointless.] [Miss it, and fourth, fifth nests will appear again.]
The enemy likely understood my ecology that way.
'If I were Riana, I'd go for the main body too.'
Otherwise, no fundamental solution.
'In that case.'
Make them think the chance to catch the main body was now, delaying hatchery location and countering tentacle monsters.
"It's gonna be a long operation, Tia."
I discarded the pussy I'd used as a human shield and sucked on Tia's heated-up mega-melons to cool them as we sprinted full speed.
"Anything's fine."
Tia wore a slightly tipsy, pleased expression.
"With Chokgoe pressed against my whole body, it feels like I can do anything."
...Tentacle Armor seemed to boost the motherboard's morale tremendously. Huh?
"Didn't your level go up?"
"Oh... Now that you mention it... my body's lighter."
Could this be the effect of Tentacle Armor? Sharing the main body's level with the female?
Worth researching, but not now...
"Incoming!"
Dodge first!
Tia created a platform of light particles with a holy technique she'd never used before, launching herself with it to the rooftop of the opposite building. Where she'd stood, pale starlight rained down like bombardment.
BOOM!!
Riana emerged from the billowing smoke.
"Tia. I'll give you credit. Your husband is pretty brave."
"Creepy bitch..."
"To think you were hiding inside her the whole time. Should've checked sooner."
Tia instantly summoned her Divine Bow and fired preemptive shots before Riana could act. But she'd already vanished.
What? I couldn't even see her move...?
"Pull back! No need to fight!"
"Yes!"
Tia deployed ejecting photon platforms, steadily widening the distance.
A chase unfolded over the city. Normally, busty, big-ass beauties flashing thighs in broad daylight would draw crowds, but I'd already stirred chaos below with Faceless Monkeys and Red Lotus dogs.
"Kyaaaa!"
"Nooo!!"
"Aaaah! Save me!"
Seeing the scene, Tia's chest swelled with emotion.
"Everyone's learning how amazing Chokgoe is!"
"Incoming!"
Whoa! Fierce blue starlight poured down like a shower from behind.
We dodged frantically and dropped into an alley.
Riana's coming!
"Mind sharing what's so fun with me?"
If caught again, it was over. But Tia faced her with pleasant tension.
"You'll know soon enough, Captain. If that's what my husband wants. Your most vulgar side."
"...Heh."
"Surrounded."
She knew we'd run if she approached directly, so she used her subordinates for a stealthy encirclement?
Smart.
"Running forever means you'll never see my vulgar side, you know?"
"3, 2, 1... Now!"
The church informants lunged at Tia all at once!
I'd already sensed it with Tentacle Sense, so Tia's response was lightning-fast. She drew her holy sword, slashing approaching foes, while I grew toothed tentacles from her back, instantly shredding the distant attackers. By smashing their heads.
Me and Tia—perfect combo attack!
Riana looked slightly surprised.
"...Her level's shot up a lot?"
Tia's level had hit 2500 once Tentacle Armor sync exceeded 23%. But mine hadn't dropped.
Tia, honed through 8 years of desperate combat to Lv.2500. Plus my power on top.
Our current combat power might approach Lv.4000.
"Riana's coming!"
My Tentacle Sense predicted her moves; Tia leaped upward. But Riana followed with photon platforms as if anticipating it.
The instant the distance closed to zero, I slammed the toothed tentacles from Tia's back into nearby buildings, maneuvering in 3D to slip away fluidly.
Whoosh!
Immediately after, Riana's holy sword swing from midair obliterated three buildings. Slicing their roofs clean off like cake, collapsing them.
"F-Fucking insane."
A chill ran down my spine. How strong were captain-class exactly?
Whether from her partial power release, my Tentacle Sense picked up her level.
A monster? "...Can't fight her head-on."
"Yes!"
I immediately tucked tail, sharpening my Tentacle Sense to find an escape route.
"That way!"
Luckily, no open stage for her to swing that holy sword wildly—there was room to flee!
I extended toothed tentacles to pull Tia's body, helping her glide through the air.
"Kyaa~~! Hubby’s giving me an airlift, airlift♡"
"Now's not the time to enjoy it! Scary bitch is chasing us!"
Riana swung her holy sword!
