Chapter 149. Forr Hero – Attends etings
Approximately 4 days later, we finally arrived at the nearest town to our destination.
The journey was uneventful. There were no bandits as we’ve subjugated most of them, and not even a single monster appearing.
It’s too uneventful. So uneventful, in fact, that I engrossed myself in the board ga that Celes had brought with her.
Cause I had nothing else to do.
By the way, the board ga I ntioned plays like shogi but uses magic power instead of chess pieces.
At first, I think I always lose because I’m not familiar with the rules yet, but turned out it’s just that Celes and Leon are very good at this ga.
Elcure is diocre. While Tanya and I are on the sa level.
Let’s try it with everyone else once we got ho.
Just my guess, but I think Rithina and Aura should be super good at this ga.
As for Laurier, she should also be at my level.
The rules are quite similar to shogi. We place the pieces on the board to form a formation.
We can move the piece by paying a magic coin that accumulates every turn… well, that’s the gist of it, I guess?
Anyways, we are now standing at the entrance of『Klamath』, the nearest town to the labyrinth.
This town is also part of my territory.
[For now, should we go to the adventurers guild? Or should we divide tasks like booking a room in the inn and go separately?]
It’s already nearing sunset so we planned to go to the labyrinth on the next day.
Today, we should just relax ourselves in the town.
Nothing’s wrong with doing things slowly.
[The guild has prepared living quarters for us. I think everyone should just go together to the guild.]
Celes told .
[Is that so?]
Well, okay.
Their lord is visiting after all.
So everything like living quarters should’ve been prepared already, huh?
Un, being a person in power is amazing.
So everyone went to the adventurers guild and inquired to the receptionist about our intentions to explore the labyrinth.
Although the bandits didn’t actually attack this town, the adventurers guild was cut off and couldn’t work properly until recently.
With the bandits wiped out, they returned to work as normal.
Firstly, the muscular man at the reception thanked us for subjugating the bandits.
If it’s to show so gratitude, then why did they send this uncle to the reception?
This won’t do. This really won’t do.
If it’s showing gratitude, sending in a cute girl would have a different effect compared to this uncle.
The world is really unfair.
Or is it just who is unfair?
[But…. Milord? Is milord really going to enter the labyrinth personally?]
The uncle at the reception asked and the other mbers.
There is magic in this world so it doesn’t make any sense to gauge soone’s ability through appearance, but I guess our appearance isn’t that convincing either.
Aside from Leon and I, the other 3 are cute girls.
In addition to that, Tanya was stuck on my back, already asleep.
[Well, it’ll be alright. No need to worry.]
[Ah, is that so? That aside…]
The uncle seed to think that it’s better to stop questioning .
He just wanted to warn us since it’s dangerous, but realized that forcing won’t get him anywhere.
And so, the uncle guided us to the inn where we’ll be staying on.
It’s an inn right next to the guild and it has a dining hall on the ground floor as per usual.
We were introduced to the inn owner who was cleaning the dining hall when we arrived.
His mass of muscles gave an impression that he isn’t supposedly an inn owner.
Amazing.
Why is the inn owner a muscle man too?
[So the little bros here is going to the labyrinth? Will they be alright?….ouch]
The inn owner uncle also spoke the sa thing as the receptionist uncle.
At least they ant well.
When I thought so, the beautiful lady standing next to the inn owner uncle hit him with an elbow to the flank.
[Don’t be rude. Welco and please enjoy your stay. Have a good rest tonight.]
The woman seed to have a greater control over the house than the uncle; she also greeted us with a welcoming smile.
Is she this uncle’s wife?
Why have you tied yourself to this muscle man? I thought inwardly. She’s simple looking but beautiful nonetheless.
Like a rough diamond.
She should be in her thirties, I think?
Truly cool.
No, I shouldn’t go there.
But… a married woman sounds enticing too.
It’s cool after all.
But no.
[Thank you for the hospitality.]
Can you take care of at night as well?
With pleasure.
A one night stand.
There is no way that will happen.
I exchanged a light greeting with the inn owner couple then being inford about dinner ti, and being guided to our room.
Each of us got a private room of our own.
What’s with this trend?
Anyways, after stashing our luggage in our respective rooms, we gathered back at my room.
[Well, alright then, I’ll explain about the labyrinth we are going to explore tomorrow.]
Celes stood before us, declaring the beginning of the eting.
Houー, clap clap
Everyone raised so applause in response to Celes’ declaration.
[Thank you….um, the labyrinth we are about to explore tomorrow is called Klamath Labyrinth.
I don’t know if it’s nad that way because it’s so close to this town or if it’s the other way around.]
Celes explained without much hesitation as though she’s used to speaking in front of many people.
To reaffirm the purpose for tomorrow’s exploration, the session was filled with questions and answers. Kinda felt like being in a classroom here.
The Klamath Labyrinth is located in the mountainside a few hours away from the town.
Usually, the magic stone can be mined starting from the tenth level.
In addition to shaving off the magic stone from the labyrinth wall, one can also bury a regular stone of an affordable size at the spot where magic power is pooling to turn it into a magic stone after about a year.
We can’t afford to spend so much ti so we planned to go deeper, find areas rich with magic power and mine the magic stones around there.
The deeper you go, the higher the magical power of the magic stones. So it’s a good idea to dive as deep as possible in this case.
At least to the 15th level… and if possible, the 20th level.
In those levels, the quality of the magic stones should be quite good.
In addition to that, we should map out the 11th level of the labyrinth whenever possible.
It will be a great help to people who’ll go mine the magic stone in the future.
I’d say the entire process will take 2 to 3 nights.
[That’s it. You can return to your room. And don’t forget to have dinner.]
With the eting ended, Leon stood up.
[Yeah, see you later.]
After listening to my words, Leon left the room.
Now then.
[Oi, the eting is over. Wake up.]
After seeing off Leon, I woke Tanya up. She was sleeping on my lap up until now.
Tanya beca drowsy soon after the eting started. She proceeded to use my leg and my groin as her bed and pillow then slept soundly.
We never expected to get any input from her part anyways, so we let her be.
The sense of her clinging to my feet and her head resting around my groin area, it would’ve aroused if not for the fact that she might accidentally bite off my stuff in her sleep.
They say girls grow up in their sleep, but that doesn’t apply to Laurier and Tanya due to their demonic bloodline.
Sothing to do with a larger body consus more energy to maintain so they reverted to a smaller body to preserve energy.
[N~…… don’t wanna…]
I don’t know what her sleep talking was all about, but Tanya clung to my legs tighter as she groaned and moved her head incessantly.
If you move your head too much, your pillow will grow bigger, you know?
Can’t help it.
She purred when I patted her head. Such cuteness when pampered; so sweet.
It’s still alright for the ti being.
Speaking of which, what is Elcure doing?
She had been quiet during the eting.
Getting reminded of Elcure’s existence, I turned to my left since Elcure was sitting right next to .
[Guu…]
She’s actually sleeping too.
With her head drooping down and drool hanging from her mouth.
What should I do? Wake her up?
While I was weighing the options I had, her body began to tilt.
Apparently she had reached the limit of staying in a straight sitting position while sleeping.
And her body ended up leaning on .
Hou.
This is gotta be one of those lucky pervert monts!
What the hell am I thinking?
Keeping Elcure supported as is, I wondered what she’ll do when she woke up.
If it’s the romcom kind of developnt, she’ll wake up, and when she realizes that she’s been leaning on while she’s sleeping, she’ll blush in embarrassnt thinking how I’ve been watching her all this ti!
My delusions are overflowing.
But, at that mont, there is one thing I forgot.
There is a pair of horns on Elcure’s head.
Gusa.
[…….Guo…..!?]
I was completely out of luck.
Elcure’s horns are pricking my shoulder as she leaned over to .
Ouch…
Not like the horns dealt any actual damage to , but it still stings.
[Fuee….?]
Perhaps hearing my involuntary yelp, Elcure woke up.
Our eyes, hers slightly damp, t each other at such a close proximity.
[Ha…hawa…wa]
Still looking at , Elcure’s face gradually reddened.
Eh?
Her reaction is actually cuter than what I imagined.
That horn attack was unexpected, but it was worth it to be able to see her face this up close.
When thinking about such things…
Don!
Elcure pushed away.
[Uoo!?]
[Fugyaa!?]
I got rolled out of bed thanks to her shove.
Tanya who was sleeping in my lap also inevitably fell off
[…..!]
Elcure rose up from the bed, staring down at with killing intent. Her face red like a tomato.
What was that for?
Is it a tsun mont or dere mont, which one?
Also, since she’s standing up on the bed while I’m down here on the floor, I could actually see it.
The usual string panties.
Superb view.
[….eh!?]
Noticing where I’m staring at, Elcure imdiately pulled her skirt down to cover up.
Then she jumped off of the bed and left hastily.
As before, Elcure looked back at with bright red face before leaving. This ti, silently.
[Urrm…]
Celes who witnessed the entire thing was wondering what is actually happening here.
[Uu~….what’s happening here…?]
Tanya couldn’t understand what was happening as she held her head.
[I-it’s nothing really… By the way, am I at fault here?]
[Well….oniisan is not… I guess?]
Celes’ words couldn’t be more wrong.
I saw her panties purely by accident.
In that sa situation, any man will involuntarily look at the sa spot.
Well actually, most people would just turn away.
Still, it’s not my fault.
I’m definitely not in the wrong here.
