Chapter 8: Naked in Battle
Several monsters from the lower floors appeared. Mio used two daggers to strike down several goblins. Hina used defensive magic, she created several barriers around Mio’s and Haru’s bodies. The goblins’ attacks caused no damage to them.
Haru used the hammer and killed several slimes that came toward him, then he struck a Horned Wolf on the head.
Mio used the ring’s ability and collected all the items.
Haru killed a summoned orc.

[Converts magic crystals into bullets, allowing the creation of magical or physical bullets. The user must decide before firing.]
’So I really was right about the pistol!’
He picked up a slime crystal and tried to use the skill, but failed. Then he picked up the pistol with his other hand and still couldn’t create the bullets. When he held the pistol with the same hand that was holding the crystal, he managed to create the bullets, except they appeared inside the pistol.
[The pistol received five bullets!]
He aimed at a slime and hit it.
[Only 50% of total power will be used when firing!]
’Only now the system tells me.’
"What did you just do?" Mio asked.
"I just learned how to use the pistol. With this, I’ll be able to kill monsters faster. But my skill consumes crystals."
Mio glanced at him, and she let her guard down. A goblin started scratching her stomach, another appeared and she fell, a third goblin appeared and started removing the lower part of her clothes, then four more goblins appeared and removed the upper part. Before another goblin penetrated her, Haru killed four of them with the pistol, then he placed an orc crystal into the pistol.
[The pistol received fifty bullets!]
He killed the rest.
Hina ran over to Mio, removed her cloak, and covered Mio’s body, then used healing magic. Haru kept staring at Hina’s butt, causing him to lower his guard, but he reacted quickly and killed three more orcs. Mio got up, even naked she did not let herself be discouraged. She killed several monsters and used the ring. She handed Haru several more crystals.
"Thank you very much," she said with her hand over her pussy, covering that part while leaving her breasts exposed. Haru’s eyes were fixed on those breasts, which, although medium-sized, still drew attention. Her nipples were erect, and their light color caught his attention. He was used to porn actresses with dark nipples, only once had he seen an actress with lighter nipples, but she had been from another country.
Mio slapped him.
"I’ll stay like this, I’m not ashamed of my own body, but if you keep looking at me like that, I’ll kill you."
His eyes looked like those of a pervert who had never seen a naked woman in front of him. That was true, at least in part, he had always peeked at his mother in the bath and at his sister. He really was a pervert, but he wasn’t someone who would harm a woman, since he was afraid of them.
The armor was completely broken, the sweat-soaked fabric was torn, and the golden metal parts were shattered.
Mio’s sweaty body shone under the light of the fifth floor. Those fields with few trees and several bushes were packed with monsters, the more they killed, the more monsters appeared.
Hina gained two levels, Haru gained one, and Mio remained at the same level.
Hina’s legs were also sweaty, and a liquid ran down her crotch. Haru could only think about smelling those dirty clothes, Hina knew that.
"Tonight you’ll get to smell them," she whispered into his ear.
"I think we’d better head up," Mio said.
"But we still need more crystals."
"Yes, but these monsters won’t stop appearing, we could get hurt like this, exhaustion will affect our performance."
Everyone agreed.
Mio covered herself with the cloak, and the three left the dungeon while several people watched them.
Mio’s covered body drew no attention, but Hina’s legs caught the attention of many men and several women. Her legs were very well-defined, and her large butt inspired envy, as did those breasts that were practically bursting out of her clothes.
"That guy is really lucky," one adventurer said to another.
The three went to Masaru’s room, where Mio handed the broken armor to her father. He looked at her naked body, he knew what had happened. The receptionist brought another bikini armor. The new armor was slightly smaller, leaving part of her pubic area exposed, but Mio didn’t mind, as long as she got her quick movements back.
Clothes that covered the crotch caused movement problems, so bikinis were better. She had already tried wearing larger panties, but they hindered her movement, as did athletic shorts. Something that went between her buttocks while leaving her crotch free was ideal.
"What will you do with the broken armor?"
"I’ll throw it away, it can’t be repaired. Even though it can technically be repaired, it’s too expensive, and it’s better to buy new armor."
"Then please give me the armor."
Mio stared at him. She was serious and was about to slap him.
"Let me try to repair it," Hina said.
"All right. If you succeed, you can keep it and wear it, your body is very beautiful and deserves to be admired."
"Now let’s count what you’ve collected," the receptionist placed the items on the floor. She bent down and sat, her skirt was short, and the way she sat left her panties exposed. The red lace panties matched her skin tone, or so Haru thought. "Some crystals are missing," she said after placing the crystals together with the other drops.
"Yes, I had to use them to kill more monsters. My new skill consumes crystals to create ammunition for the pistol."
"You managed to use that pistol?"
"Yes, but I could only use it because of my skill. I don’t think I can use it any other way, and it was all just a coincidence."
"All right, you’ll explain to me how you did it another time."
"In total, you collected one hundred slime crystals, one hundred and ten slime jellies, one hundred White Wolf crystals, one hundred White Wolf claws, one hundred and twenty-two Crystal Snake crystals, one hundred and twenty-two vials of venom, forty-seven goblin crystals, twenty-five orc crystals, thirty orc hides, three hundred Horned Wolf crystals, and three hundred and one wolf horns. Altogether, that’s..." she began calculating in her head. "Fourteen thousand, eight hundred and thirty-eight copper coins. That comes to four thousand, nine hundred and forty-six coins for each of you. The amount will be transferred to your accounts."
"An excellent amount for only two hours on the fifth floor. Soon you’ll be able to stay longer during an internal stampede and avoid the problems you had today."
"The problem is that events like that are rare. It would be better for us to get stronger and reach the lower floors as quickly as possible," Haru said.
Masaru gave a slight smile.
