Chapter 29: Back To The Normal Dungeon
Kanzaki Kazuma was having sex with a maid. His eldest son knocked on the door, and Kazuma told him to wait. Amid the loud moans, he remained standing in front of the door. He didn’t like it, but even so, it was better to hear that woman’s moans than his own mother’s.
Another loud sound began, it was his mother moaning. She was with the husband of the woman who was having sex with Kazuma.
Hayato remained standing still. He didn’t want to make either of the two, or the four, uncomfortable.
Half an hour passed. Kazuma opened the bedroom door naked. The woman remained on the bed. He gestured, and Hayato entered the room. While the woman cleaned her pussy, Hayato waited to say what he wanted.
The woman left, and Hayato began.
"Haru was in the red-light district."
"So he’s a pervert. We can’t expect much from him."
"He was seen leaving a guild. Although that guild is connected to some strange things, he’s part of another one that’s normal."
"He has always gone to a guild. What’s new about that?"
"He may have found a job. I know about the financial difficulties he used to have, but now he’s very relaxed, and it seems that he and his girlfriend rented an expensive house. In other words, either she’s supporting him, or both of them are strong enough to form a party and make money exploring the dungeon."
"So you’re suggesting that he can fight?"
"Exactly, and that could be good and, at the same time, bad."
"Bad how?"
"He might convince himself that he’s strong, take the college entrance exam, enroll in a combat class, and die. That would stain our honor. That’s why we need to take care of him."
Kazuma fell into thought. He was coming up with a plan while listening to his wife moan loudly.
"It’s decided. You’re going to keep an eye on him, and we’ll first see what he does, then we’ll figure out a way to deal with it. First, I want to understand what he is and what his class does."
"All right, it’ll be done."
He didn’t want to keep watch over his own brother, since that took time. He would rather deal with the situation himself. Even so, he couldn’t. That’s why he used a few other people to keep an eye on his brother.
Haru was hunting goblins, but he didn’t feel very good about killing those monsters. He now saw monsters differently. The females were wearing clothes, a top and something similar to a skirt. He could only imagine the female goblin completely naked and satisfying his desires. That wasn’t wrong, just strange. Still, it made him question his own preferences even more.
[System Notice: Place your bet!]
He snapped back to reality when he saw the system notice. Little by little, he shifted his thoughts to something more normal.
"What are we going to do now?" Hina asked.
"We’re going to sell the drops and keep some crystals."
A man and a woman walked past the three of them. Haru wasn’t hypnotized, since the woman was dressed normally and modestly. That wasn’t attractive at all. At least not from the perspective of a pornography addict.
"We’ll continue gathering later. We’ll need as many items as possible for the tournament. My father will provide us with some magic items to help us. But many groups will use other items, and they may even use better ones, since the prize is very good."
"What’s the grand prize?"
"Five thousand gold coins and..."
"Do you really have all that money?" Hina asked.
"Of course not," Mio said quietly while looking to the side. "That’s why we have to win. Otherwise, my father will suffer an enormous loss. We’ll even have trouble paying for the event crystals. That’s why we’re selling all the items as soon as we get them."
"You’ve really gotten yourselves into a very complicated situation."
"Yes, that’s why we’ll keep hunting monsters so we can get more drops to sell."
"Will anyone notice when we use the drop duplication skill?"
"I don’t think so, since no one will be watching someone else’s drop. Everyone will use the collection item, and immediately after the kill, the item must be used. That way, no one will pick up the drop from the ground."
"Won’t that let one group take advantage of another group’s drop?"
"No, because the drop is bound to the group that made the kill. So only that group can collect the drop using the item. That way, there’s zero chance of someone stealing from us or us stealing from another group. It’ll be a fair tournament, or at least it’s supposed to be."
They continued on to the eighth floor. Haru wanted to test the shotgun.
"New weapon?"
"Yeah, I bought it at the same shop where I upgraded the pistol."
"It’s a gay weapon shop," Hina said, laughing.
"That’s something very familiar to you, isn’t it?"
"What?"
"Forget it. Now let’s see how the weapon performs," Mio said as she took an attack stance.
She crouched slightly. Haru desired her butt and part of her pussy. Hina watched him silently.
A rabbit appeared, and with a single shot, he managed to kill the monster. Haru tried to fire again, but he had to pretend he was throwing the spent shells away before he could shoot again. He hated that, since it reduced his response time, but even so, he could kill a rabbit with just one shot, so it was worth it, at least to a certain extent.
Two more rabbits appeared, and with a single shot, both of them died. The shot imitated the pellets of a shotgun, so area damage was possible.
"This will help us in the tournament, but you need to get used to this weapon. Your movements seem slower, even though the weapon doesn’t look very heavy."
"If you used your two arms for something besides masturbation, you’d build more muscle," Hina said, laughing as she teased Haru.
Mio laughed and then attacked a rabbit.
Haru kept firing. He realized there was a major difference besides the area damage. The shotgun had a shorter attack range, and that was a big problem, depending on the situation.
The two people appeared again. Haru remembered the woman. They were returning to the seventh floor.
Haru turned his attention back to the rabbits, but his reaction time wasn’t fast enough. A rabbit hit him, sending him flying through the air.
A loud sound echoed throughout the floor.
A new boss event had begun.
