Chapter 19
✦Sorry for the delay! There were some unexpected problems when I was editing this chapter which made it much slower to finish.✦
"Yue, are you ready to leave?" Seal asked.
They have been in Oscar Orcus's mansion for a week, and now they were fully prepared to leave. There was nothing else to do here because they had already inherited Oscar's memory and ancient magic. Though, it was only Yue who inherited Oscar's [Creation] magic. As for Seal, he converted his ancient magic into skill points.
"...Yes." She replied after a moment as she took one last look at the place they spent together.
Then they stepped onto the teleport array and disappeared from the mansion.
Meanwhile, on the surface, a girl with rabbit ears was looking around excitedly. It was as if she was waiting for something or someone.
A magic circle appeared on the side of a rock wall, and two figures fell out of it.
"Where are we?" A petite girl with blond hair asked the man next to her.
"Um... I don't know." The man responded after a minute of thinking. He couldn't exactly remember where they were, but he knew which way led to the nearest town.
They were none other than Seal and Yue, who had just left Oscar's mansion.
Seeing them, the rabbit girl smiled widely and ran toward them.
"Eh? Do you see that running rabbit?" Yue asked Seal.
"I do..." Seal smiled slightly.
"Please... help me!!!"
When the rabbit girl came in front of them, she held onto one of Yue's feet and asked.
"No." But what she received from her was a blunt reply.
"Thank- wait, what did you say?"
"I said no." Another blunt reply came from Yue.
"Whyyyyyy?!"
The rabbit girl couldn't help but cry out. Then she remembered that there was another person there.
'Eh? Why is there another person here? In my vision, I only saw the blond girl and no other people.'
Although confused, she still turned to look at the person who didn't appear in her vision.
"Who are y-" She didn't get a chance to finish as she was frozen stiff at the sight of the man.
"Ah, hello there."
Seal knew why she was spacing out like that, but he still greeted her nonetheless even though she couldn't hear him.
It took a moment for the rabbit girl to regain her senses, and when she did, she clung onto both of Seal's legs and begged.
"Can you help me?!"
"Erm..." Seal, who was a little surprised by her actions, looked to Yue for help.
"Hmph! Do it yourself." She pouted as she turned her head to the side and walked away.
Seeing Yue like that, Seal couldn't do anything but smile wryly at her. She still felt very embarrassed and angry at him for the other day.
They did it for a whole day without stopping. No matter how many rounds they did together, Seal was oddly always full of energy afterward. To make it worse, she was under sexual stimulants that increased her endurance during their activity. But in the end, they stopped when Yue passed out after their 11th round.
When she woke up, she remembered everything and started going red from embarrassment. Then when she saw Seal, she couldn't help but get mad at him. That was because when she asked to rest for a moment, he ignored her and started another round right away. When they finished with their activity, she wasn't able to even lift a finger.
"Hey, can you help me? I can be your girlfriend instead of that girl with small breasts. My boobs are much bigger than her, see?" The rabbit girl said while sticking out her chest proudly.
But hearing that, not only did Seal looked away, he started sweating and feeling chills down his back. It wasn't because of what she said, but it was about the person behind the rabbit girl.
Yue, who was walking away at that time, stopped when she heard the rabbit girl talk about her small breasts. She turned around and gazed at the rabbit with hollow eyes while radiating a very dangerous aura.
"Ehhh? Why are you looking away? Are you shy?" The rabbit girl bombarded Seal with questions without being aware of the danger that was behind her.
The rabbit girl was about to say something when she felt cold air behind her. Wondering what it was, she turned around to see a smiling Yue covered in a murderous aura.
"U-um, if I apologized, would you forgive me?"
"...Any last words?"
"No! I don't want to die!"
...
"Uuuu... why would you hurt a beautiful girl like me." The beaten rabbit girl said while holding her head.
"You talked bad about my breasts. That's unforgivable." Yue said coldly.
"I'm sorry!" She said while cowering under Yue's gaze.
"A-anyways, what did you need help with?"
Although he knew what she wanted to ask them, he didn't want to be suspicious.
Hearing that, the rabbit girl seemed to remember her reason for coming here.
"Could you please help me save my family?"
"Why would you ask us?" Seal answered with a question.
"Um... because you're strong enough to survive and clear a labyrinth."
"I know that you're looking for the other labyrinth, and I can lead you to them."
"Hmmm, what do you think?" Seal looked at Yue and asked.
"I'll follow you." She responded.
"Well then, let's go."
The reason he accepted because he thought there were no downsides to helping her. On the contrary, it was very convenient for them to help her because they needed to establish a good relationship with the Beastmen to access the Haltina Labyrinth.
...
They soon arrived at the forest where Shea's family was. Shea was the rabbit girl's name.
The method they used to travel was a car which Seal created with his [Creation] magic. It was a big black Humvee that could fit seven people easily.
When they arrived at the forest, they noticed some people were getting attacked by flying monsters. Which were taken care of by Seal the moment he saw them.
After a moment of introducing themselves, they gradually made friends with the Beastmen. Many of the Beastmen asked Seal to train them, which he gladly did. But he had to let them know that his training will be gruesome.
"We can do it!" That was what Seal heard back from them. If Seal didn't know better, he would've believed it.
As expected, they couldn't kill a plant at all.
"You guys..." He couldn't help but speak out to them.
"We're sorry..."
"Again. The first person to kill an animal will get a special prize." Seal decided to motivate them by having rewards in what they do.
Meanwhile, Yue was training Shea at a different place due to Shea's begging. She wanted to get stronger along with her family.
At first, Yue rejected, but after being annoyed by her, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she kicked the rabbit out of her sight. But it didn't seem to work because the rabbit didn't seem to want to give up as she came back even more enthusiastically.
Shea was very excited when Yue accepted, but it was not exciting as she expected it to be.
"What a worthless rabbit you are..." Yue said while gazing down at fallen Shea.
Shea's first task was to put a scratch on Yue, which was supposed to be easy, but,
"Wuuuu... stop dodging."
Yue was evading Shea's attempts to put a scratch on her, which made the latter mad that she couldn't touch her.
...
"How about this? Oraaa!" Shea said as she slammed her hammer down to where Yue was.
Yue was caught off guard and was barely able to dodge in time. She then froze Shea with her ice spell.
"*Achoo* I-i-it's cold!"
Shea said with only her head poking out of the ice block. She was about to complain more, but she stopped when she noticed that there was a scratch.
"I did it! There's a scratch, a scratch! On your left cheek!"
Her sudden shout made Yue surprised as she noticed that she indeed did have a scratch on her left cheek. She was about to speak when she heard Seal's voice from behind her.
"How was the training?"
"She did alright. She specializes in strengthening her body to the strength of a monster." Yue said.
"Not bad." Seal nodded in approval.
"Boss! We've hunted the monsters you asked for." A deep voice suddenly sounded. There was a group of people behind Seal.
"Erm... Didn't I tell you to hunt one only?"
"Yes, Boss! But they attacked us in packs, so we had to kill them all." The leader of the group said.
"Yes, yes, and their screams when they were in pain were giving us pleasure."
"Um... Seal-san, what did you do to them?"
Shea, who had just gotten out of the ice encasing, couldn't help but be shocked at the changes in her father and co.
"He taught them how to fight." Yue answered Shea's question for Seal.
