Chapter 848: The 5.5th Floor
“It was disgusting being with you, let’s never see each other again. And I’m telling you again, don’t tell anyone about this.”
“Haha. The Saint is like this even until the very end.”
“…Not bad.”
“I’m not kidding, you bastards!”
I really should have buried them when we were down there.
Because of the last shred of conscience I had as a human, I couldn’t bring myself to bury those two bastards. So, as soon as we got back up, I hastily decided to part ways with them.
Those two bastards… at least Greg wasn’t singing, but if I kept looking at Duke’s face, savoring my humiliation while I was wearing that bracelet, I felt like I’d actually commit murder this time.
Even if that weren’t the case, my mind was already at its limit, so it was even more urgent.
Damn it. I went through too much pointless trouble.
I’m not just talking about going to the last sub-layer.
Of course, that was the most pointless trouble, but bringing those two bastards into the party was also a huge mistake.
When I added those two to the party, I actually had this thought:
I don’t know how many more times I’ll have to scout sub-layers like this in the future, and I can’t keep sneaking into the Dungeon with Threon, hiding from the Arachne Clan, every single time.
So, if those two bastards proved useful, I figured I’d assign them to Threon for future investigations.
I’d added those two to the party, thinking that Threon would genuinely try to assassinate me if he found out, but the result was just that the muscle-bound baldies’ den was the last sub-layer.
In other words, I’ll never have any use for those guys again.
“Well then, see you later. I’ll be training my strength until then, so I can be of help to the Saint again anytime.”
“No need!”
So, I responded coldly to Greg’s greeting and quickly turned my back.
I even felt like Miriel had played me for a fool.
That damn woman. She gives off this refreshing, wuxia protagonist vibe and her tone is unnecessarily full of conviction. I got reeled in for nothing.
If it’s just a guess, don’t say it with such certainty!
Anyway, after parting ways with those guys, Threon and I immediately ascended to the surface via the teleportation magic circle.
And as the countless adventurers filling the Adventurer’s Guild came into view, I finally felt like I was truly back.
Yes. This is how this world should be. What’s with all those muscle-bound baldies running around naked trying to grapple me?
This world is supposed to be teeming with beautiful female adventurers.
“We… we escaped that hell, didn’t we?”
“…Yeah.”
Feeling a subtly strong sense of camaraderie, Threon and I looked at each other and nodded.
However, since I was finally purifying my eyes with female adventurers and had no intention of defiling them again by staring at Threon’s face for too long, I immediately averted my gaze.
“Mr. Threon. Little miss. You’re back?”
“K-kuh…! Yeah. I’m back.”
As I savored the feeling of liberation from hell and approached Elder Sister Rachel at the reception desk, she greeted us with an even brighter smile than usual.
She must have smiled like that because I’d returned safely from a more dangerous place than usual.
Knowing that, I bravely held back the tears that welled up for no reason and returned a composed smile.
K-kuh. She’s always beautiful, but today she seems especially so.
“Was the matter you went for resolved well?”
Oh, right. The cover story was that Threon went on a Guild quest. I completely forgot. I can’t help it. It’s all I can do to just stay sane right now.
“Yes. We thoroughly scouted everything. There were no anomalies. Here’s the Master Card.”
Threon also looked at Elder Sister Rachel with a somewhat overwhelmed expression as he handed her the Master Card.
Hey. I get how you feel, but don’t give my woman that kind of look. The bastard knows she’s pretty. The camaraderie we felt earlier is one thing, but this is another. Look away.
“Oh, that’s good to hear.”
Elder Sister Rachel seemed slightly flustered by Threon’s burdensome expression, but she didn’t forget her formal receptionist smile as she took the card.
K-kuh. But even that formal smile is beautiful. Somehow, looking at her face, I didn’t want to leave just yet. I wanted to keep looking at her face and purifying my eyes. Just before leaving the Dungeon, I’d desperately wanted to return to the mansion, but now that I saw her face before going back, that thought grew strong.
“You must be tired, so I’ll hear the details later. Thank you both.”
But Elder Sister Rachel, as if reading my thoughts, said her goodbyes and sent us off immediately. Was she being considerate so we could go rest quickly? K-kuh. Elder Sister…
“…Alright. Shall we go then?”
Threon, perhaps more tired than he wanted to keep looking at Elder Sister Rachel’s face, accepted her farewell and tried to leave the Guild immediately.
That guy. That’s why you can’t perform well at night. It’s not just a Charm stat issue. You need more desire for women… No. I’m absolutely not telling you to give my woman dirty looks, though.
“What are you talking about, ‘shall we go together’? Go by yourself.”
I’ll say it again, feeling camaraderie after suffering together is one thing, but this is another. I have absolutely no intention of needlessly sticking around with a filthy man. Our business together is over, so let’s part ways coolly here.
Well, we both have homes in noble districts anyway, so our paths are the same for a while.
“…Shouldn’t we go back the same way we came?”
“……”
Damn it… Now that I think about it, I left the mansion dressed as a maid…
“What are you doing! Let’s go quickly!”
“Don’t get angry when you’re the one who came dressed like that…”
I had no choice but to stop by Threon’s house first before returning home.
If there was any consolation, it was that his house and mine were surprisingly close.
“Welcome back.”
“K-kuh! Vanessa-aaaaah!”
“Ugh?!”
Anyway, that’s how I finally returned home.
Home really is the best. Overwhelmed with sorrow, the moment I saw Vanessa, who had come to greet me, I rushed into her arms and did what I’d wanted to do ever since I saw Elder Sister Rachel.
What was that, you ask? What else? Burying my face in her large breasts and reveling in the feeling of holding a woman. K-kuh. Yes. This is it. This is it. This is the touch of a woman.
So, you muscle-bound baldies who came running at me with open arms! Get out of my head now!
“…What are you doing? Let go. I am a butler right now.”
Vanessa, perhaps not expecting me to suddenly rush into her arms, tensed slightly and guarded me with a cold voice.
“Vanessa-aaah… Vanessa-aaaaah…”
“Ugh… Wait… Please don’t touch strange places.”
But normally… no, to be honest, even normally, if I buried my face in her chest, I’d never let go no matter how much Vanessa threatened me. But now, I was returning from hell and experiencing heaven.
I had no intention of ever taking my face off those breasts, no matter what, and as I stubbornly rubbed my face against them, Vanessa eventually gave up. She didn’t try to push me away, only offering weak verbal resistance.
Was it that she couldn’t be harsh with me right after I’d been through such hardship? Or was it because I hadn’t taken off the bracelet yet and was still in my child form, making it hard to be harsh?
Well, either way, it didn’t matter.
“Mr. Guwon…!”
And as we were causing such a commotion in the lobby, the Angel was the first to ‘catch our scent’ and arrive. I say ‘catch our scent’ as a figure of speech, but did she actually smell my younger form? How did she get here faster than Sara, who has excellent hearing?
“Welcome back!”
The Angel, as soon as she saw me clinging to Vanessa, hugged me tightly from behind. Thanks to that, I felt the soft touch of breasts not only on my face but also on the back of my head… K-kuh. Yes. This is it. This is what this other world is all about.
“Angel-aaaaah…”
“K-kuh…”
Caught between two women, I turned my body and buried my face in the Angel’s chest this time.
I’d always thought it, but my intuition was right.
The place where the Angel is, that’s truly heaven.
And coming from someone who just saw hell in this world, there’s no doubt about it.
“What’s wrong? Is something the matter? Did you get hurt somewhere? Where is it? Show your big sister.”
As I clung to her with a tearful face, the Angel said that in a voice full of worry, hastily stroking my body. No, Angel. Just having you caress me with such soft hands is enough for me.
“That pervert, as soon as he gets back…”
“Hmm. I feel like punching him.”
As I was experiencing heaven, not only the Angel but the other girls too, having noticed my return, began gathering in the lobby one by one.
“Diana. Even if you don’t have breasts for me to hug, jealousy is still ugly.”
Overly excited by my return, I carelessly blurted out something I normally wouldn’t have said.
“It’s not jealousy! Seeing you say such things, you’re perfectly fine! Stop whining and tell us what happened! And how long are you going to keep that bracelet on… Ah, anyway, get off!”
Of course, Diana reacted violently to my words, but for some reason, she got flustered mid-sentence and changed what she was saying. Why is she suddenly like that? She’s not even making eye contact with me. What is she looking at? I followed Diana’s gaze. That is, I looked slightly above me, and there was only the Angel’s smiling face.
Hehe. Angel. Your smile makes me happy too.
“The bracelet’s duration probably isn’t much longer anyway, so wouldn’t it be better to take off your clothes quickly? No matter how much I love you, I don’t have the confidence to love you while you’re wearing that maid outfit that’s too small and about to burst.”
But as I was happily making eye contact with the Angel, Matilda’s subtly calm voice reached me.
…Hey. When the girl who usually goes into ‘pink mode’ and clings to me without thinking says something in that tone, it has a strange impact.
“…I can just go change.”
“Aah… Ugh…”
Breaking free from the Angel’s embrace, who stretched out her arms as if reluctant to let me go, I decided to go change my clothes first. As Matilda said, if the bracelet’s magic wore off while I was in this outfit and I reverted to my original form, there would be no greater disaster.
“So, about the sub-layer…”
Having changed my clothes and returned to my original form, I gathered with the girls in the same room and decided to tell them the tale of my survival from hell.
Of course, with my mental defenses perfectly in place.
Because talking about what happened down there meant reliving it.
If I didn’t get some Silvia therapy like this, my mind wouldn’t be able to handle it.
“Hya-woo-ooh…”
Silvia, on the other hand, looked like she was about to die, but this time, I hoped she’d hang in there for my sake. Besides, this time, Silvia wasn’t alone.
“Aah… At that time…”
On either side of me, Leia and Matilda each hugged my arm, pressing their ample breasts tightly against me.
“Matilda. Everything’s fine, but don’t breathe into my ear.”
I’d just come from being surrounded by sweaty guys, so my tolerance was lower than usual.
Maybe I chose the wrong lineup after all.
I picked these two because of their breast si… because they’d gladly hug my arm if I told them.
Maybe I should have gone with Vanessa instead of Matilda.
Well, Vanessa, perhaps because of what happened in the lobby earlier, wasn’t even trying to approach me, looking extremely wary.
No. It might not just be that incident; she might not even like this current appearance of mine.
“Of course, Vanessa wasn’t the only one who didn’t like my current appearance.”
Sara, who could never be left out when it came to jealousy, also threw a blunt question at me in a voice full of envy.
Sara. Just bear with it a little longer. Once you hear my story, you’ll understand why I said I wouldn’t tell it unless I was in this form.
“Of course, I came back because I scouted everything. As for what happened…”
And so, I began to explain to my girls the hellish time I’d experienced down below.
