Chapter 5 : Found the girl, but got myself confined

The inside of the cavern was coertips produced an illu

If asked if this was cold, it was obviously cold; but in comparison to outside, it wassaid; without clothes specifically designed to guard off low te here would be unacceptable

Initially I wanted to call out for the girl to know that we are here; but Real quickly vetoed my idea– If it happens to be a demon further inside the cavern, it would surely be roused by human voices– and when that happens, there is the possibility of hier in this confined environment

With a strong feeling that we shouldn’t stray from each other; we stepped into the cave…

And then…………。

「Ah」

At the inner ure… Treirl fit perfectly the description we had previously heard I had to forcean expression of joy as I directed my steps towards her

She slowly raised her face to the sound of my steps

「Oni-chan, who are you?」

「Don’t worry, we came to help!」

To ease her worries I touched her withice

… This is bad; her body te her face under the dih to see that her coht even break down froht for her…

Even if I’o

First thing isoffoff froht now!

「Ka- Kanna?」

At the sight of me who had suddenly started a strip show (upper half only though); Real’s eyes becaht now there is no ti, I feel soo cold that it’s a pain to open my mouth to talk…

「Forgive this for awhile」

shi+vering with cold irl as I proceeded to take off all of her clothes; that done I began to wear again ain, but I put her inside as well this tiirl skin unto my chest, it felt terribly cold; for a s as I puther with th

「Oi, just what is the deal!?」

「The fastest way to war it from skin to skin! More than that Real; please increase the fire! I’!」

After realizing er and the heat increased accordingly The girl’s deprived body te me as a warmer

「Aaa, how refreshi+ng」

Yet again the blisfull physical heat made me spill tears…

「When you suddenly stripped off, I seriously started doubting your sanity」

「Naturally, I can’t boss around a woman like you ords like 「undress quickly!」 」

Betweennow heat of her own She has also stopped treerous situation

Maybe because she regained a norirl seeazes me from point blank distance

「Sorry, for having stripped you so suddenly」

As I apologized I pat her head, the girl shook her head to refute me

「When you are freezing, you should do it like this; is what my otou-san said」

Apparently, over here it’s also wide-spread knowledge that an eainst cold is to increase the warm skin to skin Since the Lolicon label won’t be added to ain I’m compelled to breath in relief

「Well, why are you at this place? Since you didn’t return by nightfall, everyone in the village was incredibly worried, you know?」

「Eto, because okaa-san caught a cold, I came to pick up medicinal herbs, but…………」

The outline was just like we had i up herbs for her mother, the howl of the wolves could be heard In a fluster she hurried down the mountain and -just like I did- she treaded upon the slope; falling through the cliff Even then, she could feel quite close the roar of the wolves; thus she could only think of seeking refuge in the cave that was in front of her

「And it was then, that the weather turned into a snow storm…」

「It becaot cold to the point you couldn’t to move anymore」

As Real added the last bit, the village daughter nodded quietly in a sorrowful manner

「I- I’m very sorry」

「Don’t worry about it, as long as you are unharmed, it’s ok」

The girl narrowed her eyes confortably as I placedface Taken by the nified look; but yet again I realize that superb beauties like her really need to smile like this

「Very well, since the girl is safe; we have no more business in this mountain」

「That’s true…………」

Froh for the girl and proceeded to dress her on thee DOOOOON resounded, as if it was the roar of a sto continued and s

The vibration and sound that stopped quickly enough where followed by a rather strong wind current that poured froust of wind settled down in a few seconds, and as it did, large amounts of sweat poured from my back

「………… Real-san, I somehow; have an incredibly bad premonition」

「Coincidentally, me to」

I noticed that Real’s face had gone stiff

Once again I check that the girl and I have properly set our clothes on

The village girl buried her face in the cotton of her gar it’s warmth; unfortunately I can’t afford such allowance in this weather Real is not present a us, she went to to check the condition of the entrance

As she returned, her countenance was quite grim… It looks like that bad premonition was on the mark

「For the looks of it…」

「Yeah; it’s completely buried」

That shaking and roaring from before are probably the work of a snow slide And then, the reason of why the wind blew so intensily; was because the avalanche was pushi+ng air in as it was blocking the entrance

「Melting it with ic?」

「I gave it a try and proved iic withouta hole in that wall of snow」

「How about using that large sword as a shovel?」

「Just what do you think of other people’s loved sword… But, I also thought about it– however, the piled up snow is so ht now is sih there would be unreasonable」

「Does endow? If that’s possible, we could—」

「Yes; as you have surth is possible It’s co… However; unlike spells that increase tolerances, increasing the capacity of your own body has a big recoil and can’t be put into use for long… We don’t kno thick the blockade actually is, it would be better not to try it」

For defense, it’s enough withthe surface of your own body with the spell; however since for strengthening you are using ic to mess around with the internal functions of your body at a muscle & bones level; the backlash has to be serious It’s like artificially trying to increase an already huge fire scene? Maybe I should even enlarge that exaet a proper description…

「Then, the conclusion?」

「We are completely trapped」

After clearing one dangerous situation; you find yourself in the next one…

「We should think positively from now on…………」

What just was pointed out by Real does have some truth For exa the cave, ould surely had been involved When thinking about that, perhaps this was our fortune

「But the fact that we encountered an avalanche makes our luck value switch to minus already」

「Don’t say it; I feel like holding my head at that」

We could only h at the events

「Well, what do we do Kanna?」

「Don’t askI want to hear myself」

Even if I complain, I need to squeeze some ideas

「Real, let ic?」

Activating spells obviously consuth What’s necessary to fully recover one’s own depleted ht of rest; conversely, as long as one keeps casting spells; it won’t be possible for your own radually recover… In the current situation, our last ray of hope is Real’s ic

「Since I unconscously protect ainst the cold; there is no issues with ic I’m able to use…」

There is obviously individual differences with the aic each person posses Additionally, even if several people cast the very saic consumption will be different in each case due to differences of suitability to that ic type

The ay that Real posses seeular person As her speciality lies in reinforceics can’t be good compared to the ones from her natural trait

「I can’t exactly tell right now… I can’t hold this peace for too long; and lasting untilwould be out of the question」

Huht noe don’t have at hand any sort of irl and I have no means to increase our bodily heat other than rely on Real’s

「It’s a big pinch」

「Surely, a big punch」

「A pinch?」

This girl repeats after us

「Yeah, an ultra absolute pinch」

The level was increased

It ht not sound like much from our talk; but this is a serious pinch
