Chapter 95: Julia and Maria
Our day’s journey through the sewer tunnels ended at a etlands, not unlike that of the basilisk’s honature purple earth, and the water wasn’t that turbid either, so it had the atmosphere of a normal swamp
Theareas for the jira as a crowd of them leaped up from the saters to face usThey were probably confident about their hoe at us, sto their ebbed feet on the muddy earth
Had I still been solo, noould’ve been the perfect tiet my ass out of here, but Tendo-kun’s here, so I can simply stand back and watch
With each swing of his dragon sword, Tendo-kun roasted scores of the fish-faces as they came, while the rest of us walked past the piles of jira corpses that gave off the smell of barbecued fish
“We’re stopping here for tonight” Tendo-kun announced
Soon after, we’d come across a fairy square within the swa that stood like a small temple in the middle of the chaos, seemed to be better built than the one I’d ht with the basilisk
“You lot stay hereI’o check the area” He said, to which the Gla to accompany hi”
Having none of their pestering, Tendo-kun left us here to survey the outside alone
Who knows,the jiras and wanted to go test it outI didn’t see hih… well, whateverI’ve already deter to needlessly pry into Tendo-kun’s business is an instant death flagI wanted to havethe cart before the horse
“Hng’aaa∼” yawned Rando-san, “I’m exhaustedI think I kind of stink too”
She made one of her usual lazy corass, sitting with her legs spread outOof, that angle is disastrous for my eyes
“You think we should wipe down?”
“Tendo-kun isn’t here right now, so yeah, sure”
And the Glamourettes seem to have the sa in foul s sewer tunnels, so of course our bodies reekI wanted to take a bath as soon as I can
“Rando-san, I’ll be outside while you wash upJust call me when you’re done”
“Careful not to peek∼”
“Yeah, no kiddingNonomiysan and Yoshi+zaki-san would literally snapa prank, thank you very much”
“Oh, uhh, sorry…?” Rando-san didn’t kno to react when I suddenly got all seriousNaturally, I would’ve laughed it off with her e still in japan, but here, there is potential for literally deadly consequences
I absolutely refuse to let ht by Kenzaki AsunaGranted, that was different, with her seeinght peeking while the girls ashi+ng, she ht’ve killed me then and there
Such is the folly of the strongThey could kill for theon the side of the weak, aets killed for it
“Alright, then I’ll head out now”
“Thanks, uain, Momokawa”
“Just try to be careful about this sort of thing, alright?” I saidto play it cool, but honestly―― what I wouldn’t give to get a look! Who cares about the Glamourettes, I want to burn the picture of Rando-san’s tantalizing nudity into these eyes of mineThat chocolate tanned, deliciously plump body exudes a charm totally different from that of Mei-chan
Co and find a loophole in this thing? I mentally sche alive is important and all, but I still have needs
In short, I opted to impatiently complete the painful wait outside without incident
“Haah,” I sighed, “guess I’ll pick some herbs”
Rather than thinking with my dick, I should spend the time productively and take a walk around the area, of course, not straying more than a few meters away from the fairy square
The outside had only low shrubbery and trees were also sparse,that I would notice immediately if a band of jiras approachedStill, no haruard while I sifted h the local bush flora
“Ah, it’s―― !?” I’dfind“A snake!”
In between the bushes, I came face to face with a snake, not a monster, but purely aniue out
A snake, so that Mei-chan had once beheaded, skinned and broiled into a delicious mealThat snake
“Blackhair bind!” Not one to let this chance go, I immediately captured it in tentaclesThis is eonAnd it’s not getting away from me!
“Rem!”
“Gagaa!”
The snake struggled fiercely once it noticed that its whole body had been wrapped in blackhair bindThough not for long, as Rem promptly used her mantis blade and relieved it of its head
“Nice, good job!” I praised“Think you can skin it for me too?”
“Gagaaa!!” Done! Re the snake by its headless neck, and ripping off the skin with one sShe did it just like Mei-chan had done once
“We have meat! Meat!” I cheered
The snake was left hung on a nearby tree to drain the blood
“All right, Rem, time for a snake hunt”
“Gaga”
“But keep your guard upThe sht attract jiras or other monsters”
“Guga”
And so, until Rando-san, fresh after her bath with sexy wet hair, calledmore snake meatLuckily, we didn’t attract any unwanted monsters either
In suht, we feast
“Urp… no no no,” Rando-san reacted, “like, seriously Momokawa, that’s just, no”
“Huh, Rando-san, I thought you could cook?”
“Well I can, but that’s a snake, dude!”
Such was the state of affairs when I proudly showed off the fruits ofa mouse between its teeth to show its owner
“Coret it”
“Ugh, I mean like, I kinda do want some meat”
Right, now that I’ve convinced Rando-san to challenge snaketo her… with Tendo-kun not here, I finally have a chance to talk to the Glaht, now that I’ve convinced Rando-san to challenge snaketo her… with Tendo-kun not here, I finally have a chance to talk to the Glamourettes
And if Rando-san gives up, I guess I can tryit over a fire, cutting up soht?
“Erm, could I have a talk with you two?”
“Ha?”
“Look Momokae don’t want to talk to you”
HarshThe old me would’ve been so hurt by such a cold refusal that I’d cry in ht, but… heh, so you think words can put a dent on uy as seen fapping by a girl e, and subsequently beaten up by her tooA response like this is but a gentle breeze by comparison
“I think,” I said, “it’s better if we try to work togetherI wanted to talk so we can help each other out better”
“Uh, how about no?”
“You’re not even that strong, are you Mo?”
“Sure, I’ll adh to protect myself, but I can make medicine”
The two girls snorted, they didn’t look all that interestedWhich is why I have the upperhandThe reason being: if they’d gotten some from Tendo-kun, they’d say they already have medicine
“Actually, Tendo-kun already found out how to get the ingredients and ive some to you two?”
And after a silence, “NoMarie?”
“Me neither”
Of course he hasn’tTendo-kun neither looks not acts the type that would share his personally oodness of heart
I’ll be frank, Tendo-kun probably has as much interest in Nonomiya Julia and Yoshi+zaki Maria, as he does inhiht be in possession of one of the ive one shi+t, and will do whatever he daeon
“My ood as a potion, but it works better than the clovers, and I can ht monsters in close quarters so wouldn’t you rather have some on you if you could?”
“Sure, I guess”
“Yeah, we ht need some”
Hook, line and sinkerIt’d been an instant and complete defeat on my end when I had this conversation with Tendo-kun, but this, this is howthe true value ofmeds
“That being said, I do valueas siredients by hand, and there’s a liive it to anyone”
“What, so you’re not giving us any, is that it?”
“Be a douche somewhere else, Momokawa”
“I’,” I let them know clearly, “that I’ve never really talked to you Nonomiysan, or you, Yoshi+zaki-sanI don’t exactly know you two very well”
Are they friend of foe? That’s theas we have that indirect threat that only 3 of us will be allowed out of the dungeon, I can’t trust anyone just because they were classmates
“Frankly, I’ve had class to cooperate, as in fight with ladly hand over medicine when you need it and, it’s notmy curses”
“I mean, curses, I don’t know”
“Eh, I can risk it for the medicine”
“Eh, I can risk it for the medicine”
Good, very goodThey still have doubts, but I can tell that they want the meds
“I’ let’s be friends, but I want to at least have so fellow party members”
“Dude, you gotta at least try to be friends”
“See, this is why you don’t get any girls, Momokawa”
Oof, that stungSo that’s it huhAll the girls know that I’ it point out to me in my face is just cruel
shi+t, not again, I thought I already lost the ability to feel the hurt from words, but the pain, it burns!
“Uh, okay then, let’s start with being friends”
“Eh∼, with you…?”
“Like, you’re not my type, sorry∼”
“Wait, how co it like you just turned me down!?”
I e to say that, and this is what I get? Dairls they’re… they’re just evil…
“Ahaha, you reat reactions, Momokawa∼”
“So true∼Don’t worry, soirls like that too”
“Please, don’tI’ teased around, okay?”
Still, these two breaking down ht have actually lowered soreat for ht teasingIn fact, I think we
“Kay, so Mo anyway?”
“Yeah, I ht?”
“You ?”
“That’s right, he’s so frickin’ badass”
“TotesHe’s the best”
I’d have to agreeI don’t see Tendo-kun ever losing to any dungeon et, but by h to easily match that
And that very well may be the reason e can’t rely on him aloneBut I can’t say that to these two and expect them to understand
I’ up with Tendo-kunNot to ht like Rando-sanAnd then, suddenly they gained an ally who put them at ease froo aroundstatements like I doubt Tendo-kun when they’re so infatuated with hiotiations instantly
“I wanted to ask, how do you two really feel about Tendo-kun?”
“I like him, what else?”
“Yeah, I’d be crazy not to fall for him”
Both of them professed their attraction toward Tendo-kun without a shred of hesitationI seeTheyto survive every day in this harsh environ man, and went for it

“I get that, but I don’t really see hi interested in either of you, honestly”
“Hey!”
“The fuck!?”
“Please hearthat you two aren’t attractiveI’ that Tendo-kun seems to be like that with everyone, not just you twoAnd I’ocentric, but more, let’s see… He’s the type that only sees value in people he approves of, or at least, that’s how I see it”
I don’t think I’e of characterI’m a shaman after all, not a fortune tellerI haven’tand rich life experience
But even toIn a way, you could say he’s easy to understand
“Yeah, I… guess”
