Chapter 188 – 188Th Episode – The Holy Sword (Self-Proclaimed)
“Um…”
I spoke to the man who looked like a mage first.
“Huh? Ah, sorry. Were we surrounding you too much? I know it’s rude, but we were just too curious to help it. You know, that priest girl over there?”
“Was there a problem with Elsie?”
“No, she didn’t cause any problems. It’s just that she was so excited bragging about you that everyone overheard.”
It seems Elsie’s voice, as she was engrossed in explaining my highlight reel to Tina, had reached the ears of other adventurers.
“Ah… Ugh… I-I’m sorry.”
“No, you don’t need to apologize. But… the content was so absurd that we were wondering if it was real or fake, and then you, the Dungeon Crasher, suddenly released a large amount of mana on the table, so we couldn’t help but be interested.”
I guess I was partly at fault.
Come to think of it, I heard that mages and adventurers who have been promoted about three times become sensitive to mana.
Judging by the outfits of the surrounding adventurers, they didn’t seem like novices, so they must have felt the mana I used to make the miniatures and couldn’t help but be interested.
The man who looked like a mage looked around at the surrounding adventurers and asked.
“Isn’t that right, everyone?”
“Well… yeah.”
“The way the righteous saintess was excited was cute~.”
“Well, even without that, he’s the Dungeon Crasher, so we’d be interested.”
Surprisingly, my nickname, Dungeon Crasher, seems to be quite well-known.
“So, Dungeon Crasher, what were you trying to do just now?”
“I was just trying to use a skill to simply recreate what happened today.”
“What kind of skill… No, I shouldn’t ask that. Sorry, forget what I just said.”
Judging from the mage’s words, it seems that it’s bad manners to inquire about the nature of a skill to someone who isn’t a comrade.
Well, skills are also an adventurer’s trump card.
Unless they reveal it themselves, asking about it could be rude.
More than that, seeing that they are still gathered and not leaving, it seems that the other adventurers also want to keep watching my miniature recreation.
There’s nothing to hide, and it’s actually a recreation of my exploits, so I also have a slight desire to show off.
Besides, they are adventurers using the same inn.
I might be able to build some camaraderie.
I looked at the adventurers around me and asked.
“Um… Do you all want to see it?”
“Well… it would be a lie to say we don’t want to see it. After all, we can see the Dungeon Crasher’s exploits.”
“Aside from that, this realistic miniature is amazing. And it’s even glowing! Did you make this just now?”
A man with a sword at his waist asked me, his eyes shining.
He was the man who praised me for being cool when I first saw him.
“Yes.”
“That’s amazing… I want to keep watching. Everyone else too, right?”
Everyone nodded at the swordsman’s words.
“Lant, what are you going to do?”
Noah asked for my opinion.
Of course, I plan to show it to everyone.
But with just the miniature on the table, it would be inconvenient for all the adventurers surrounding us to see.
Besides, if you look around carefully, there seem to be people who came in the middle of eating.
“It’s not something to hide. I plan to show it. But… there are still people who haven’t finished their meals, right? How about everyone finishes eating first?”
“Ah, thank you!”
“Let’s eat quickly!”
The adventurers who hadn’t finished their meals immediately went back to their seats, and the adventurers who had already finished also returned to their seats for the time being.
And 10 minutes later.
After the other adventurers finished their meals, they gathered around us again.
I first got up from my seat and said to everyone.
“It’ll be hard to see if it’s small, so I’ll recreate it on a larger scale. Please make some space in the center.”
“You can make it bigger?”
“Let’s move the tables and chairs!”
The adventurers quickly moved the tables and chairs to the wall.
“Please put them back when you’re done.”
“Yes!”
Everyone answered loudly at Miranda’s words.
I never thought I would be doing a recreation show of my exploits in front of other adventurers.
It’s like I’ve become the main character of a magic show or a circus.
Audience.
Circus.
Main character.
My imagination is running wild.
A secret circus show held at night.
It’s called a circus show, but what’s actually held is an obscene, riotous party.
A young lady performing acrobatics with a flexible body, throwing hula hoops and poles.
A young lady training lions and tigers with a whip.
A young lady dressed as a clown, making everyone laugh.
All the participating audience members cover their faces with masks and enjoy a moment of fun at the circus.
After the normal circus ends, what follows is a full-fledged obscene show!
A young lady performing a masturbation show with a pole and hula hoop.
A young lady presenting a sex service show, such as handjobs and footjobs, to the animals she has trained.
A young lady showing off her lewdness by making holes here and there in her clown costume.
And then comes the lottery time! Three lucky audience members will become the main characters, not just the audience, and have public sex with the young ladies in front of the audience!
After the first sex, there’s a group gang rape event by almost all the male audience members!
The most popular young ladies are instantly transformed into top-class prostitutes!
What about you, Solo-ssi!
『If you’re going to include animal elements, wouldn’t it be better to have a bestiality show instead of just sex services?』
This time, the main focus was on gang rape with people, so I excluded it!
I ended my brief fantasy with my high-speed thought circuits and felt the gazes pouring towards me.
Many gazes filled with anticipation and curiosity.
It’s the complete opposite of the attitude of glancing, ignoring, or not approaching when I first requested the muscle carriage at the Adventurer’s Guild.
I’m a little happy.
“Then, I’ll start.”
I released mana in the center of the first floor, creating a mana aura.
It’s good to start with a bit of atmosphere.
“We went to the fifth floor and defeated many Antras.”
Using the mana that had become an aura, I activated Mana Weapon and created a replica of the fifth floor’s terrain on the central floor.
Of course, it’s not the actual size, but a much smaller size.
But it was much larger than the one I made on the table, so other people could see it in detail.
And I additionally piled up the corpse models of the Antras.
I didn’t actually pile them up like this, but it’s to emphasize it.
“Gross…”
A female adventurer frowned at the overly detailed details.
The high level of reproduction was the problem.
“In the following battle, our party member, Noah, became exhausted from the heat under the scorching sun.”
I erased the pile of Antra corpses and created rocks, and below them, Noah lying on the bed I made, and us surrounding her.
“Wow, it’s so realistic.”
“But why is there a bed on the fifth floor?”
“I made it with the skill I’m showing you now.”
“Ah.”
“And while we were resting. We heard the sound of a large Antra…”
I erased our figures and slowly sent mana, forming the King Antra model as if pushing it up, and recreated the scene of the King Antra emerging from under the sand.
“The King Antra appeared.”
“Oooooh…!”
Some adventurers were impressed by my directing skills.
I additionally created a slightly smaller version of us in front of the King Antra model to create a size comparison with the King Antra.
“I went forward and decided to defeat the King Antra alone.”
“The King Antra alone? That’s a lie, right? Because of its size, the King Antra is much harder to defeat than other unique monsters!”
The swordsman is giving me a very good reaction.
It’s because of people like him that I’m motivated to direct.
“I stepped forward and released mana first.”
I recreated the scene of me releasing mana, like the main character in a manga who loses power when their tail is caught early on.
“Why did you release mana? If you’re going to use a big skill, it would be better to do it up close.”
“Because it’s cool.”
“Cool…!?”
“Yeah, it’s cool. I understand that feeling.”
“I kicked off the ground in an instant and moved about 10 meters next to the King Antra.”
I recreated the scene of me kicking off the ground and the sand scattering.
The scattered sand is all attached, but I added a light and transparent color in between to make it look like it’s connected but separated.
And I erased the King Antra and our figures once, and focused on recreating the King Antra and me moving next to it.
“Wait, how did you move instantly?”
“I kicked the ground very hard!”
“Is that possible?”
“He even destroyed a dungeon… Wouldn’t it be possible?”
“The King Antra hadn’t noticed me yet, and I took that opportunity to prepare to defeat the King Antra in one go!”
Then, I showed the process of me creating Excalibur in an instant.
“Once the temporarily named Excalibur was completed, I swung it down in one go! And the King Antra’s neck was cut off in an instant along with the surrounding rocks!”
I recreated the scene of the King Antra’s neck being cut off, along with the sword blade and trajectory that are often seen when swinging a sword in manga.
I also perfectly recreated the golden mana snow falling.
“Wow… beautiful.”
“W-What a foolish consumption of mana…”
And I withdrew my mana, and the fantastical golden snow, me, the King Antra, and the recreation of the fifth floor all disappeared.
“That’s the end. Now, everyone, put the tables and chairs back in place.”
As promised with Miranda, the adventurers immediately put the tables and chairs back in place.
When the cleanup was finished, the mage approached me and asked.
“Hey, Dungeon Crasher. Was everything you just showed us real? It’s not a lie, right?”
“It’s real. They’re probably in the middle of dismantling the King Antra at the Adventurer’s Guild warehouse right now.”
Then the swordsman said from behind.
“Ah, was that why the warehouse was so noisy when we came? I even heard Kelban’s really unpleasant laughter.”
“Kelban’s unpleasant laughter? That’s something you can only hear when dismantling a rare monster… Could it really be…”
It seems that Kelban’s unpleasant laughter is well-known among other adventurers as well.
“Ahem, there are mountains of things I want to ask, but anything more would involve your skills… Haa, Dungeon Crasher, I still can’t believe whether it’s true or not, but I enjoyed the spectacle you recreated with your absurd mana.”
“Yeah, it was awesome! Especially the Excalibur!”
“It was fun!”
“It was enjoyable!”
“Do it again next time!”
The reaction from the surrounding adventurers was good.
“Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I don’t know when I’ll do it next time!”
It’s okay to do it occasionally, but doing it every day is a bit much.
Because it could reduce my massage time with Tina!
That’s a very serious problem.
After everyone finished their meals and enjoyed my recreation show, they all went to their rooms or went outside.
Pani and Celli also went back after finishing their work, so only we were left on the first floor.
Noah grinned and poked my arm with her elbow.
“You were popular, Lant?”
“Yeah. I’m glad everyone seemed to enjoy it.”
Elsie smiled brightly.
“I… I was happy to see Lant’s cool 모습 again.”
“Hehe, Lant is still amazing. I don’t think anyone thought that was a Mana Weapon, did they? But I was surprised that you could recreate it to that extent… I was surprised again.”
Ninya winked at me.
And Tina looked at me with wide eyes and said.
“Lant… you’re really amazing. Lant, you were really an amazing adventurer.”
Tina, who only knows me from the inn, seemed to have realized that I was an adventurer with great skills after seeing what I had just recreated.
“Right~ Lant is our super strong and cool lover, Tina~.”
Noah said playfully with a grin.
Even though it was a playful tone, I was happy with Noah’s words of praise.
And we also went to our respective rooms.
Elsie first went into my room, used up all her mana, and then went into her own room.
While healing, Elsie kept talking about how cool I was today with a bright smile.
I was very embarrassed.
Not long after Elsie went into her room, Tina came in for a massage.
Today, Tina focused on a normal massage like yesterday.
Instead, while massaging, Tina asked about my adventures so far.
I was happy that Tina was showing more interest in me, so I talked happily, and Tina enjoyed listening to my stories.
While receiving Tina’s pleasant massage, I enjoyed the conversation with Tina.
And… after Tina finished the massage, the time I had been most looking forward to today arrived.
Squeak…
“Lant… I’m here…♡”
It’s time for my lovey-dovey, squishy-squishy time with Miranda, who had to postpone her turn for five days because I went back to my hometown and is very much looking forward to sex with me… and I’m also looking forward to it!
