Chapter 49 – Episode 49 – Rookie Killer
◈
Pow!
Ugh!
A punch that sent the kobold’s teeth flying!
We reached the third floor and hunted kobolds smoothly, just like yesterday.
“Hmm…”
The hunt was going well, but I felt a little uneasy.
The reason was the slightly dark mood of Lenny today.
If I were a bit more eloquent, I could cheer Lenny up, but I don’t know what to say in these situations.
If this world were more sexually open and promiscuous, I could have given Lenny a pleasure paradise with my dick, making her forget all her worries at once.
It’s a real shame.
“What’s wrong, Rent?”
Elsie came to my side and asked, as there were no more kobolds around.
I guess my worries were all over my face.
“No… I’m just a bit bothered by Lenny’s expression today.”
“Ah… I see. But that’s… I think it can’t be helped. It’s really sad when adventurers die at the hands of people, not monsters… Lenny must be feeling uneasy too.”
“That’s right. I don’t understand why a rookie killer would do such a pointless thing.”
Noah put away her dagger and approached, agreeing with Elsie’s words.
“Besides, they say the corpses had arrow marks and sword cuts as if they were played with maliciously. And even signs of violation… That rookie killer must be the scum of the earth.”
Noah’s usually lively expression turned grim.
Indeed, just hearing about what the rookie killer did to the victims is cruel.
“I hope they catch him soon.”
“Me too.”
“But why haven’t they caught him for months?”
“That’s… because there’s something strange about the crimes.”
“Strange?”
“Yes. The locations where the crimes occur and… the victims’ ranks… no, the floors they reached are too different.”
“Difference in floors?”
“Rent, you know, right? You can only use the warp device to move to the floors that the user has reached.”
“Yeah.”
“But the victims’ bodies were found… only in places that are too different from the floors they reached. For example, the second victim was only E-rank but was found on the 7th floor. Later, I heard that the maximum floor that victim reached was only the 2nd floor…”
“Hmm… Could they have been moved after being killed?”
“No, that’s not it. The person who autopsied the bodies determined that even if you calculate the time the victim died and the distance to where the body was found, it’s clear they were killed on that floor.
So… that’s probably why they made this magic tool that tells you the floor where the person is.”
“Ah, so that’s why…”
That makes sense.
If a companion suddenly disappears and is shown to be on a floor where they shouldn’t be, you’d know it’s definitely the rookie killer’s doing.
But…
“But even if you know the location, if you’re still a rookie adventurer party, you can’t go save your companion, right?”
“That’s… unavoidable. If you know, you have no choice but to go to the Adventurer’s Guild and request a rescue.”
“And if it’s a rookie killer… even if adventurers like me or Noah go, not Rent, we’d definitely get defeated.”
Listening to Noah and Elsie, I felt even more that the rookie killer was scum.
The rookie killer who made Lenny’s face dark and made Elsie and Noah feel bad.
If I ever meet him, I’ll punch him in the face.
But before that, prevention is most important.
“Elsie, Noah. Let’s stick together when we go out for the time being.”
“Oh? Rent, are you going to be our bodyguard?”
“Yeah, so the rookie killer can’t lay a finger on Elsie and Noah. I’ll protect you.”
“Thank you, Rent!”
Elsie and Noah’s expressions brightened at my words.
I was glad that my existence seemed to be a support for Elsie and Noah.
Elsie and Noah look better when they’re smiling or bright.
The only time tears suit them is when they’re writhing in pleasure, like Noah last night.
…Thinking about it, I wanted to see those tears again.
Okay, let’s make Noah cry to her heart’s content tonight too.
This time, if I pull her tail and lick it while she’s awake, I think I’ll be able to see them soon.
My gloomy mood was greatly relieved.
It’s always better to have lewd and erotic fantasies and thoughts than to have depressing thoughts.
I took the magic stone from the kobold’s chest, stored it in my inventory along with the sword, and then said to Elsie and Noah.
“Then let’s keep hunting kobolds. I’ll definitely protect Elsie and Noah, so let’s go all out with peace of mind!”
I stretched my arm up with all my might and shouted.
“Oh! Let’s go all out!”
Noah followed me and thrust her fist up powerfully.
“Yes! Let’s… let’s go all out!”
Elsie also stretched her arm up shyly.
Cute.
◈
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that we spent almost the entire day catching kobolds.
I alone had taken down well over 60 kobolds.
Noah was very tired after taking down 40, so I was mostly in charge of hunting kobolds in the afternoon.
“Rent, you really have amazing stamina…”
Noah, who was admiring me while wrapping her tail around her thigh and blushing, looked very tempting.
If Elsie hadn’t been there, I would have pulled her tail slightly and kissed her.
And then, the thrilling outdoor sex in the dungeon!
I definitely want to try it once.
Of course, I need protection to do that in reality, so I enjoyed outdoor sex with Noah in my fantasies!
The disappointing thing about hunting kobolds was that we didn’t encounter a kobold warrior.
Now that I have an inventory, I wanted to surprise Mr. Kelban with a fresh kobold warrior corpse the next day, but it seems that the encounter rate with unique monsters is quite low.
As a substitute, I broke the neck of the most muscular-looking kobold I encountered and put it in my inventory.
We had hunted for a considerable amount of time and walked quite a distance, so when it was time to return, I used the Rent Bus to quickly transport Elsie and Noah to the warp device.
My stamina hadn’t decreased at all, and I actually recovered my energy by smelling Elsie and Noah’s scents and feeling their touch.
Especially the feel of Noah’s tail wrapped around my arm reminded me of the pleasure of yesterday, which was even better.
It was close to dinner time when we moved, so there were other adventurers near the warp device, and some of them stared with wide eyes as they saw me carrying Elsie and Noah.
Elsie, feeling their gaze, blushed and lowered her head, which was very cute.
Then we went out of the dungeon, finished exchanging our loot, and headed to the Adventurer’s Guild.
“Wow~ I’m really tired today. It feels like we were in the dungeon for a really long time today. I’m getting tired of catching kobolds now.”
“I’m a little tired too because I used up all my magic power.”
“Then shall we go down to the 4th floor tomorrow?”
“Oh, that’s a good idea!”
“Elsie, what kind of monsters are on the 4th floor?”
“There are orcs on the 4th floor.”
Orcs!
Along with goblins, they are very, very, very!
In manga, they are indispensable, so-called supporting extras who play the role of dicks!
“What do orcs look like?”
“They have green skin and look like large humans, but they have pig noses.”
So, they’re orcs that don’t have pig heads.
I’m already looking forward to going to the 4th floor.
The details of my fantasies will become more high-quality, and I’ll be able to enjoy fantasies with the title “Days of City Gang Rape with a Monster Outbreak.”
There are too many monsters that play the role of dicks, so an orc outbreak is a perfect subject.
Fantasies with this kind of subject usually end with the monsters completely dominating a city and turning humans into human farms for orc breeding.
Or, the orcs are eventually defeated, but only women whose minds have been broken by the pleasure of long-term humiliation remain, which is a dark ending.
If I throw a curveball, there’s also an ending where the women fall in love with the orcs due to the heart-fluttering mode caused by pleasure and join the orcs’ side to help conquer the humans.
In any case, the existence of orcs is indispensable for a chest-tightening, dick-hardening development.
For reference, I’ve been used to stimulating genres in my past life, so my dick has been hard for a long time.
That’s the sad state of a masterbator.
When we arrived at the Adventurer’s Guild and met Lenny again.
Lenny’s expression seemed much better than it was in the morning.
I was about to take out the kobold swords from my inventory, but when I thought about it, there were too many, so I asked Lenny if it was okay to take them out here. As a result, I was told that it would be better to go to the material warehouse where Mr. Kelban was, so I went to the warehouse right next to the Adventurer’s Guild.
When Mr. Kelban saw me coming.
“Oh, Rent! Did you already catch a unique monster!”
He came running happily, but when he found out that it wasn’t, his body immediately slumped and he lost his energy.
Instead, when I took out the muscular-looking kobold that I had put in my inventory, Mr. Kelban was fortunately pleased.
“Oh! This is a kobold that’s worth dismantling!”
“I couldn’t find a kobold warrior.”
“Did you perhaps catch it for me?”
“Yes.”
“Oh, oh, oh, Rent! Thank you so much! You’re a really good adventurer! It was the right choice to entrust you with the inventory!”
Seeing Mr. Kelban’s happy face made me feel good too.
After taking out the kobold swords in the warehouse, we returned to the Fox’s Rest.
“Welcome back, everyone!”
When we returned, Tina greeted us with a very bright face.
She seems very happy today.
Did something good happen?
As usual, we sat at a table, ordered food, and listened to Elsie tell us about the typical stories of past heroes while we ate. Then, we were about to go to our respective rooms.
Before going up the stairs, Tina called out to me.
“Mr. Rent, Mr. Rent!”
“Yeah? What’s wrong, Tina?”
“Hehe, well, I wanted to say that you can really look forward to today’s massage.”
“Look forward to it?”
What should I look forward to?
Could it be, could it be, could it be that the long-awaited pussy massage will be realized?
Or will it be a curveball and I’ll get an anal massage?
It’s not a pussy, so it’s a massage, not sex! A pleasant pleasure massage service through the anal hole with that logic!
If she does it, Tina, who washes her feet cleanly even when she does a foot massage, will prepare in advance in terms of hygiene and do a safe anal massage, right?
I’m very excited!
“Hehe, the details are a secret. Look forward to it until I visit Mr. Rent’s room today…”
“Ah, Tina. Can you wait a moment?”
At that moment, Miranda called out to Tina.
“Huh? Why, Mom?”
“Help Mom out this evening~.”
“Huh…? Why, why?”
“We’re going to start the bathhouse service the day after tomorrow~ So, help me with the cleaning and test run of the magic tool~.”
“What!? Th-there were people using that service? No one has used it so far!”
“But what can I do if they appeared~ So, help Mom out today.”
“Th-that can’t be… Oh, today. Today I was going to make a big decision…”
“Oh my, what do you mean by making a big decision?”
“…Ugh. I-I’ll help…”
“That’s my good daughter. Thank you~.”
Tina looked back at me with a tearful face.
“Mr. Rent… Ah, I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can do it today…”
“No, Tina. If you’re helping Miranda, it can’t be helped.”
I was the one who applied for that service in the first place.
I feel sorry for Tina for some reason.
But this is to receive Miranda’s special service!
…Why do I feel even more sorry?
My conscience is pricking me.
“Hehehe.”
I heard Noah’s laughter from the top of the stairs.
“Hmm~ If it’s to help Miranda, it can’t be helped~ Yeah, yeah. That’s too bad, Tina~. Rent was looking forward to Tina’s massage too.”
“Ms. Noah…”
Noah is having fun teasing Tina.
Tina’s glare at Noah is scary.
“Hehehe, today, since Tina won’t be massaging, I’ll have plenty of time~.”
“Ugh…”
Noah’s ears were flapping, and her tail was swaying.
Tina’s ears were perked up, and her tail was trembling.
How should I react?
First, let’s stop Noah from teasing Tina too much.
“Noah.”
“Ah, sorry, sorry. Hehet♪”
After saying that, Noah went straight back to her room.
If there’s anything fortunate, it’s that Elsie had already gone into her room and didn’t see this scene.
I’m sorry, Tina.
Instead of Tina, I’ll punish Noah with my dick tonight.
…Why does my conscience keep pricking me?
