Chapter 87 – 87 – Summer Fever
“This is the 142857 type ship passageway.”
“What is that?”
“Of the six rows of blocks in front of us, some are murder traps, and some are passage tiles that can be stepped on. And the regularity is determined by the characteristics of the number 142857.”
“···It looks like you have more experience conquering demon caves than we do. This is the first time I’ve seen something like that.”
“That’s right. I’m already getting a headache.”
“I’ll explain it as simply as possible. 142857 is a good number for people who like numbers to play with. For example, if you multiply it by 2, you get 285714, and if you multiply it by 3, you get 428571. You can multiply any number from 1 to 6. “It becomes a list of 1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7.”
“If you multiply it by 4, it’s 571428… Is that true? If you multiply it by 7, it’s 999999…”
Villena, who was quick to calculate, opened her eyes wide.
When I patted her on the back as if encouraging her, Villena flinched greatly.
“That’s right. That unique regularity is what they used to create traps.”
“···Lol.”
“All right. You just have to find out step by step what rules apply and whether it is safe to step on the block that corresponds to what number.”
I said as I took out the Demon World Trap Decoding Book.
And almost at the same time, a fire broke out in the aisle, so I almost lost the book. Morgan, who had thrown a rock that had fallen from the wall, looked shocked.
“I thought I could just throw them and press them one by one.”
“Of course, there are cases where it is answered like that. If it’s another trap, it’s okay. In cases like this…”
I looked calmly at the passage where flames shaped like skulls were rising. And then he threw the decryption book that he couldn’t put in to Eshen, who had a resigned look on his face.
“···Just run in the opposite direction until the fire subsides. Run!”
“Hey, you stubborn sea thief! If you thought it would be solved like that, wouldn’t you have explained the numbers in detail and sat down!”
“Who said that beast bitch with beast ears was so angry! . . . I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
Morgan and Eshen ran at the front, yelling at each other. Leni, who was busy bursting into laughter, followed behind with Nenya on her back.
As I ran with my luggage and Vilena and her sister behind me, Isilun scolded me.
“Isn’t it heavy? Give me one!”
“···Are you asking me to give you one instead of just a luggage bag? Let’s run now!”
“Where are you going to use the strength of a hero?”
The sister in my arms shook her head slightly and looked up at me blankly. She had a very happy expression.
I tried to look back with a reluctant face. Then Villena, who was hanging on her backpack, grabbed her by my hair and made me face her in front.
“Don’t fight, just run!”
Is he so desperate because of the fire following close behind him, or is it because he doesn’t want to be robbed of a reason to cling to me?
···Anyway, things are going so rosy these days in my love life, so I think something is going on in my head. If you do it wrong, you’ll burn to death, and the heat from the horse is close enough to tickle your ankles, so what am I thinking?
Perhaps the reason why Nidrogawa even touched Lord was not because of sexual intercourse or anything else, but because sex became too frequent and the blood vessels in the brain were damaged…
Wait for a sec.
“Nidrogar? Where is Nidrogar?”
Villena’s body shook with a gasping sound. And soon she said, as if I could not believe her.
“I stayed behind… I stayed behind!”
“What!”
“···Don’t hesitate. Who is worrying about whom!”
A few minutes later, when the fire was no longer chasing us.
Fortunately, Villena’s words were proven correct. Nidroga, her clothes blackened, appeared straight through the smoke, and she giggled and smiled embarrassedly.
The ends of her hair were a little damaged, but fortunately she didn’t seem to have been burned anywhere. As I fumbled around with Nidro to see if he was hurt, my legs soon gave out and I sat down.
“What are you doing?”
“···I thought it would be resolved if I fight back and push it away with fire. That’s usually how it goes.”
“I changed my mind. You really are a crazy warrior party with no system or anything. If it weren’t for your blessed physical strength, you would have had several funerals a long time ago.”
“As a healer, I can confidently say that it is true.”
“The boulder was thrown by the Sea Bandit, a rolling stone, so why should we be criticized as well?”
“The way he looks so angry is even cuter than I thought. It looks like a sea otter protesting because its fish was taken away.”
“···If you think I’m seriously angry, stop laughing and listen! I’m going to scold you!”
I screamed, pulling the cheeks of Eshen and Nidroga, who were giggling.
Nenya, who was sitting a little away, shared a look of unspoken sympathy with me. And he closed his eyes tightly, as if he couldn’t bear that fact.
After roughly brushing off the charcoal soot, Nidro gently removed my hand from his own cheek. And he held me in his arms.
The smell of sweat and flesh seeped through the smell of charcoal and penetrated his nose. I tried to push it away with less strength than Nidroga, but before I knew it, I was immersed in its softness and stability.
“···What are you doing?”
“I apologize. I’m sorry for making you worry.”
When I opened my eyes and glared, Nidrogar, who was looking down, smiled softly.
“But when you think about it, you, who worry about me, a dragon, as if I were a child abandoned by the water, are usually not out of the ordinary.”
That’s because I saw him get hurt while being reckless.
“I only know that that trap can burn an ordinary person. I didn’t know what level of creature it could burn because I had no reason to care. My heart shriveled as I wondered if that range included you.”
Nidroga’s embrace became more intense as I heard him kneeling and hugging me. As I was doing that, I could hear Isilun and Leni giggling with excitement and all.
“It doesn’t hurt.”
“That’s bravery. Being confident that you won’t get hurt is itself bravery.”
“That’s not what I’m saying, I promise. From now on, I’ll take care so you don’t have to worry, so stop scolding me.”
“···Okay.”
“But why did they create a trap using numbers like that? What are they going to do if the people who set it up get confused and burn to death?”
“I heard that the nobles of the ancient demon world really enjoyed such intellectual entertainment. They deliberately created a path that only those who knew the numbers could pass, so that people of low class and lack of knowledge could not pass.”
“It looks like a villain straight out of a children’s math reference book. The classism of knowledge.”
Isilun trembled.
“But if such a trap became known to humans, wouldn’t the strategy also spread? Wouldn’t they have tried to do something anomalous little by little?”
“The Demon Cave is an ancient ruin and fortress in the Demon World that was moved as is using summoning magic. Even demons say that they cannot tamper with that magic. It is similar to how we cannot change the function of an ancient artifact.”
“Hmm. Unless I’m going to burn all my remaining clothes and pass by naked, I guess I’ll have to disarm the trap first.”
“It’s okay. The fire won’t go out anytime soon anyway. It’s already hot, so let’s not wait until it goes out. Let’s find another passage.”
Villena, who had been very frightened by her, was the first to agree with her relieved expression. The proposal to find a detour was passed unanimously.
Fortunately, the other traps were made up of things that were easier to understand, and the monsters in Magul, including Mordborg, began to avoid the smell of blood coming from us.
This is also thanks to the odor enhancer. If we mix the blood of a cruelly killed monster with an amplifier and put it on the collar, little by little, they will think of us as mass murderers and retreat on their own.
People with common sense were delighted by the fact that fighting could be avoided for free. However, one person who did not have the luxury of common sense kept trying to whisper.
“I’m sorry I keep wanting to fight, but I really need somewhere to distract myself.”
“···If we don’t fight, the strategy will end faster. Then we can go back quickly.”
Eshen tried to be satisfied with that. As I heard the sound of someone swallowing his overflowing saliva and retreating, I suddenly remembered something out of the blue.
The first ejaculation that was not masturbation occurred on Eshen’s tongue, which was sticky with saliva.
The moment the smell of Eshen’s sweat wafted in, just like in the hotel room that day, Eshen, covered in white discharge and out of focus, was clearly pictured before my eyes.
Watching Eshen lick the food and taste it, I felt like a thunderbolt struck my brain. As Eshen’s fingers caressed my abs, I felt electricity seeping through my skin. I am···.
“Stop.”
“What?”
“Let’s take a break for a moment.”
I quickly prevaricated. While covering his erection with the backpack draped in front of him. Even though I’m wearing baggy pants, a top tied around my waist, and tight underwear, I feel like I’ll get caught if I don’t do this.
Of course, I didn’t ask to stop to calm down the embarrassing outburst. It was very humid and muggy inside the passage. The children of monsters may have adapted well to a place like this, but it is not an environment suitable for humans.
And in places like that, it takes a toll on your body even when you don’t feel tired. After my persuasion, the party members put down their luggage without saying a word and spread out into the aisle.
“It’s refreshing to stick to a stone.”
“And then you get cave fleas.”
“I’m sorry. It’s because of me…”
“You’re not the only one who’s tired, so don’t worry. If you feel dizzy, tell me. There’s a separate spell to relieve it.”
I decided to ask separately later if there was a spell to relieve my suddenly boiling excitement.
As I was reminding myself to distinguish between public and private matters, Nidroga crawled up and stabbed me in the side.
“Are you tired?”
“I’m tired of worrying about you.”
“I see. I know a magic that can cheer you up.”
I made a joke and the moisture came back in return. I took the water bottle Nidroga threw and nodded at him to express my gratitude.
Nidroga held out his share of the water bottle as if making a toast. We laughed and clinked our bottles to replenish the water we lost through sweat.
It had to be that way. But I froze when I saw Nidrogar tilting his head.
It was just a little while ago. That gulping, flexible esophagus swallowed something that wasn’t water. It was I who took away the purity of a hole that should not be used for sexual intercourse.
Even though the crack of the glans was touching the uvula and a faint sound was heard, I committed it without mercy. The magnificent mouth that radiated the pride of a dragon and withstood its heat was brought down as a tool to deal with the fiery sexual desire. The horn, symbolizing its strength, was relegated to a handle that helped with rough gestures.
Instead of love juice, my mouth was drenched in saliva. Savagely. Like trash. And violently. While I was intoxicated by the fact that I had dared to insult him like that, Nidrogar seemed to be ecstatic about being insulted like that.
Desire allows you to know yourself as you are. The lovelorn side of me that I had become familiar with was clearly happy. We are filled with fear and excitement at the same time, and we are voluntarily pushing each other further into the unknown world.
At the same time, they are trying hard not to leave scars on each other’s delicate skin. I looked anxiously at Nidrogar’s condition, and noticed that Nidrogar was trying not to gnaw her teeth.
And finally, the fact that dirty liquid was poured onto the palate and throat of a noble woman, no less than a princess-
“Are you still dizzy?”
“···Let’s wake up now.”
“If you think it’s too much, let’s take it a little easier. Or just send away non-combatants for a while-“
“Once you enter, there is no safer place than the combatants. There is no need to find and destroy the altar today, so let’s explore as far as we can.”
Like Eshen, I need a place to turn my thoughts. Rather than distinguishing between public and private affairs, I think we should do whatever we can to ensure that public affairs can suppress private desires.
I looked closely and saw that Nidroga’s face was flushed as if he was remembering something. He must have read something in my expression.
“···Let’s go. I had a good rest.”
“Okay, let’s go. You had a good rest.”
That day, Nidrogar’s neck swelled, his jaw fell off, and my belongings were left with unknowingly scratched fangs. Neither of them had any regrets.
We kept moving, burying the things that had suddenly come to mind due to the sweat of summer.
“The arms are nice. They give off a pleasant smell.”
Until someone blocks my path, snickering, from beyond a dark, hard-to-see passageway.
A human waiting ahead of us in the devil’s cave. It is clear that this is not a normal situation.
Eshen stepped forward hesitantly, frowning at her.
“···Where did I see that?”
“It’s a shame that you don’t even recognize your little brother.”
The moment I thought of a figure wearing a hood, it came to mind. The Tigris followed from Tobetan’s port to the party camp.
And the one standing in front of them…
“Garam Taiga?”
“Those henchmen have a better memory than that bitch you call me.”
Garam took off his hood. Black strands intersperse with the white hair that contrasts with Eshen.
And at slightly smaller eye level… There was a scary scar across the eye and nose.
When he smiled and showed his teeth, his intimidating impression stood out even more strongly. Even Eshen hesitantly stepped back and asked.
“Why are you here?”
