## Chapter 125 – D-Rank Adventurer Kim Kat
“Cloudy, I’m home.”
ㅡCreak.
What I saw upon opening the door to our lodgings was quite astonishing.
“…”
“…”
A long-eared woman with tanned skin and purple hair, dressed in a scandalously revealing outfit, was striking a sexy pose that looked like it came straight out of a gravure swimsuit photoshoot. My brain short-circuited for a moment, and I stared wide-eyed at the unbelievable sight.
Her name was Cloudy, and despite her confident expression, her face was flushed red. It seemed she had been waiting in that pose to show me… Sis, how old are you even? And why did you tie your hair into pigtails…?
“…Heh, heh heh.”
Suddenly, Cloudy began to laugh seductively. It seemed she had been waiting in that pose to show me… Sis, how old are you even? And why did you tie your hair into pigtails…?
“H-How is it? D-Do you like it?”
“…”
Her confident expression melted into embarrassment halfway through. Cloudy, her lips twisted, barely managed to finish her sentence, asking for my evaluation. I remained silent. Perhaps my silence made her even more embarrassed, as her face grew increasingly red.
It was an obscene outfit that made you wonder if it even served any purpose.
Fluttering scraps of fabric barely covered her nipples and genitals, with strings tied around her arms and legs like jewelry. And red high heels. It could be said that it had absolutely no function as clothing.
Her pose, with her chest thrust out, showed off her supple curves, and her long, slender legs had the same shapeliness as a model’s. The glimpses of her barely concealed skin were exquisite.
Overall, it was a sight I wanted to capture in a photo and preserve forever.
I closed my mouth and slowly etched the image into my brain.
“K-Kat…? Won’t you say something…? I mean, well… Ugh…”
Was this what she meant by “look forward to it”?
She’s really incorrigible.
“U-Um…? Hey, Kat?”
Words were unnecessary. I strode towards her and threw off all the clothes I was wearing. My penis, already swollen to the point of bursting, made taking off my pants a real ordeal.
“Kyaa!”
I pushed Cloudy onto the bed and roughly pulled off her panties. Ignoring her protests, I thrust my erect penis into her and began to pump my hips with all my might, pinning her down.
***
“Haa… So, you went to see that mage?”
After about two hours of vigorous hip-pumping that completely exhausted Cloudy, I collapsed onto the bed, spent. Catching my breath, I explained to her, lying next to me, everything that had happened today, without embellishment.
Cloudy, who had been quietly listening while holding my hand, quickly regained her strength, summarized what I had said, and asked,
“So… she came looking for you? She’s been looking for you all this time?”
“Hmm, you two spent the night together back then, right?”
“You sent me away.”
“T-That, I’m sorry about.”
Cloudy intertwined her fingers with mine and said,
“Anyway… so you’re asking for my opinion?”
“I had contact with another woman, so I have to report it.”
“Okay, I appreciate that… But, Kat.”
Turning towards me, she pressed her body against mine. Even though I had just released a torrent of semen, the feeling of our skin touching was enough to arouse me again.
“Of course, you’re the only one for me, Kat. My heart belongs only to you… I can’t live without you anymore. But even if I love you that much, as I said, I can’t bear children, can I?”
“Hey, you little… Don’t say any more…”
“Wouldn’t it be okay if you took that mage, even if you felt that way? Trying to have offspring is a perfectly natural act, isn’t it? I think it’s fine. In that sense, she’s doing something I can’t do.”
I guess her sex education was lacking.
My head started to throb.
“No, Cloudy. Think about it the other way around. I feel like I’d foam at the mouth and start stabbing people if you even held another man’s hand?”
“Kat… I would never do that. I told you, you’re the only one for me. You don’t have to worry about that. To me, other men are just like pigs.”
“…That’s a bit harsh.”
“That’s just how it is… Hmm? You said her name was Winia? That little mage probably…”
“That’s enough, damn it.”
Cloudy, who had been stroking my penis with her hand, climbed on top of me.
“Are you going to do it again?”
“Yeah. Besides, I still haven’t heard your impressions from earlier?”
“Well… to cut to the chase, it was good enough to make me want to pounce on you.”
“Hehe, yeah. I wanted to hear you say that. You have to express things like that properly.”
“You lewd sis!”
“Don’t call me sis! J-Just because I allowed it once before doesn’t mean you can keep doing it…!”
I guess it’s still no good.
Cloudy recoils at the word “sis.”
“Understood. Now, bring your face closer.”
“Okay… Haa…”
Cloudy kissed me. Sharing our breath and a kiss made me want to sheath my penis inside her immediately.
“Kat… it’s just a difference in thinking… Okay?”
“…I don’t know, you bitch.”
“Hehe, stay still.”
Cloudy caressed my face and swallowed my member with her wet lips.
“Haa… Haa… Hngh…!”
She told me to stay still, so I guess I should stay still. This time, Cloudy was the one pumping her hips. I closed my eyes and thought about tomorrow’s events. This is driving me crazy, really.
Why the hell did I have to come to another world and worry about women?
The path to becoming a true man, a macho man, was long and arduous.
***
When I arrived at the guild in the morning, another surprising thing had happened.
The savage girl I had seen once before was standing there.
She was a pretty girl with an impressive black short cut. That’s right. It was that pickpocket from back then. Up to that point, I was going to be proud of her, thinking that this kid had turned over a new leaf and chosen the path of an adventurer to earn an honest living, but—
“A-Are you, by any chance, the h-hobgoblin q-quest, Oppa…?”
“Then, are you by any chance the F-rank adventurer who was supposed to come as a porter?”
—that’s what she said.
The girl nodded.
Well, I don’t feel anything in particular.
I’m just surprised. My grudge against this girl, who was a pickpocket in the back alleys, was settled by receiving a whopping [5 silver] in settlement money.
Of course, stealing my 5 silver was something that deserved having her intestines pulled out and used as a jump rope while singing, but if I paid 10 silver, she would just become no different from my benefactor.
Come to think of it, I was so happy on the way back that I even gave her some rare words of blessing. I don’t know for sure, but seeing her become an adventurer like this, it seems that I have successfully rehabilitated a criminal.
That fact gave me a sense of satisfaction from doing good, which I hadn’t felt much since coming to this other world. After all, people have to live by doing good deeds.
The Buddha in my heart also praised me this time, saying that I would really go to heaven without telling any more lies. But isn’t Buddhism about Nirvana, not heaven? Both are good, so it doesn’t really matter.
“Heh, heh heh…”
A smile spread across my face.
I had made one person into something resembling a decent member of society.
Could it be that I actually had a talent for teaching?
Surprisingly, my childhood dream was to be a teacher. Nowadays, it’s just become something similar to a murderous teacher, but anyway, when I was playing baseball as a child, my dream was to be a teacher who was good at baseball.
The fact that my dream was being realized in this form made me feel good, as if I had achieved a long-held dream.
“So, our little sister has changed her job to an adventurer?”
“…Yes. I couldn’t stay in the slums any longer… So I came out.”
“Good job. After all, people have to earn money and live by legitimate means. Labor is sacred. All those who make a living by committing crimes should be killed. After all, the blessing I gave you back then helped, right? Right? It helped a lot, right?”
“Y-Yes…”
I decided not to ask about her grandmother.
Being an F-rank adventurer is a job where it’s difficult to earn money. It’s a meager job where you barely make enough to eat for the day. I know that better than anyone else.
The income is lower than that of a pickpocket, which is something she knows without me having to say it. She wouldn’t be able to support her grandmother, and it would be even more difficult to buy medicine. It’s highly likely that she would have met an ending of ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
The alchemist guild has a tight grip on the price of medicine. They have a monopoly and charge prices that are almost impossible to dream of. Even my Madecassol cost 2 silver, damn it. Those bastards are bleeding the common people dry with the price of medicine, when they have nothing else expensive to sell.
“Kat, who’s that kid? Her hair color is the same?”
“She’s my little sister.”
“Hehe, did she suddenly appear?”
“I’m kidding. She’s the bastard who stole my money last time. I told you, right? I killed them all and got the money back twice as much. The main character of that story is this one.”
“Ah, that’s her.”
The girl started to tremble when I said “bastard.”
Even though I said that, it’s already in the past, so I don’t intend to harm her or cause her pain. I’m not the adventurers I used to hate. I don’t have a hobby of bullying F-ranks.
The girl who stole my money was a “bastard,” but the girl who returned the money twice as much is just a lucky bluebird-like existence.
I wanted to teach the trembling girl the way of the adventurer.
I felt like she was my little sister in many ways, and I wanted to take care of her.
“Don’t be afraid, die standing up. Adventurers are finished the moment they are looked down upon. Got it?”
“Ah… Yes…”
“The more you show that kind of appearance, the more of a pushover you’ll become. The moment F-ranks look easy to take advantage of, they’ll get a straw stuck in them. You finally got out of the slums, but do you want to get your money taken away here too?”
“N-No, I don’t…”
“Then answer with confidence. We met as a business relationship. I’m a senior in the industry, though.”
“Okay, Oppa.”
When I said that, she stopped slurring her words and answered properly.
“She’s absorbing my words like a sponge!”
There is no trait more advantageous for survival than a flexible way of thinking and adapting to the situation. Just like she accepted my blessing and became an adventurer, she will cherish the advice I just gave her and live on.
But what was her name again?
“That’s right. So, what was your name? I think I heard it, but I forgot, hey.”
“It’s Lina.”
“Ah, that’s right, it was Lina. But I remember your tone being a bit frivolous last time, did you suddenly become polite?”
“That’s just…”
“Well, whatever makes you comfortable is the best. But can you do the porter work? I’m asking this from a business perspective, but if you can’t use your strength, I’ll just have to kick you out and tell you to get lost. I hired you to do work, not to donate to an F-rank who doesn’t have any work.”
“I’m confident in my stamina. Don’t worry… I can do the work properly. I already have experience doing porter work several times…”
“Then that’s good. Just don’t disappoint me along the way.”
Come to think of it, wasn’t this the woman who half outran me in a race? In terms of physical strength, she might be better than the crazy trio I met a few days ago. Anyway, finally Winia…
“Darkie, I’m home.”
“Speak of the devil.”
Winia, who opened the door and came in, stopped when she saw me.
“Hello? Have we met? I’m Cloudy.”
“…Winia.”
The two women faced off. I hope they don’t fight.
If they fight, Winia will be sliced in three seconds, guaranteed. I called Winia and went to the guild counter. It was to confirm the formation of the party. The hobgoblin subjugation quest was all four of us: me, Cloudy, Winia, and the porter, Lina.
“Hmm, a D-rank quest with C, D, E, and F-rank adventurers?”
“It turned out that way without me expecting it.”
“Actually, if there’s a mage, it shouldn’t be too difficult. But it’s a bit strange that a mage accepted this job.”
There was no need for a mage like Winia to do this kind of job. After completing the party formation process, we went outside.
“The abandoned mine village is a bit far, so we’ll have to take a carriage. It’ll be a bit hard to walk. You’ll be exhausted to death.”
It seems that the round-trip carriage fare costs about 60 coppers. In fact, excluding Lina, who was hired as a porter, it’s a cost of 20 coppers per person. Cloudy didn’t seem to care, and Winia nodded. We moved to take a carriage.
