Chapter 19. Monsters in Another World

After resting for a while, I finally felt better.

"I'm sorry if I bothered you." 

"It's ridiculous to think it could be annoying. It's a pleasure to touch your body. I've always wanted to partner with a boy and do something like this!"

Compared to Noelle, who was happily frolicking, Lucia was quiet.

"Ugh... I also wanted to rub his back and earn likability points with Akira. If you accumulate 100 likability points, you should be able to initiate sex."

Do women in this world think that if they protect a man, they will eventually be able to have sex? In my world, it's the same, but...

Also, what are the likability points? It's like a gal game. In the first place, I don't have any likability points.

"If I keep going like this, the day will soon come when Akira will let me have a shot!"

Noelle is also Noel. Aren't you ashamed? How can a woman exist in my world? I'm already used to these guys' lewdness.

When I'm with a woman who is more perverted than me, I either calm down or think I must be firm.

"Let's get back before dark. There are a lot of nocturnal monsters and trouble, right?"

The Forest of the Four Seasons is more dangerous at night. This is because nocturnal monsters crawl out. Plant-based monsters are often troublesome, such as sprinkling pollen that has poisonous and hypnotic effects.

"Wait a minute, I need to bring some remnants of the drunken swallowtail to prove that I've defeated it."

Stopping me from taking the initiative to walk, Noelle hurriedly picks up the feathers of the drunken swallowtail.

"Speaking of which, I've heard that swallowtail feathers are also useful as a material for clothing. If you sell them, you'll make money, so let's take some extra home."

Lucia was gathering feathers, remembering that her goal was to earn 100 million. The reward for this quest is 50,000 minas.

In addition, if you sell the nectar of the collected flowers and the feathers of the drunken swallowtail, the additional 20,000 is hard-earned. I'm finally starting to earn more money than from chore quests. You can feel that your adventurer life has begun in earnest.

But for now, I'm just baggage. I wish I had a little more combat ability.

Neither Lucia nor Noelle seems to want me to play that role, but it's a little uncomfortable not being able to do anything at a time like this.

I must be of some usefulness.

Was I thinking about it in a daze? I finally realized that something had tangled around my ankle.

"Hmm?"

When I looked at my feet, I saw something that looked like a vine reaching out to my ankle. Following the vine with my gaze, I found the source. Before I knew it, there was an unusually large plant in the shade of the tree in front of me.

Its appearance was peculiar, shaped like a large mouth. I've seen plants like this on TV before. It resembles a carnivorous flower that catches and eats insects.

The next moment I thought so, the vine that was wrapped around my ankle pulled me up, and I was turned upside down at once.

"Wow!"

In my vision turned around, and I saw Noelle and Lucia turn around when they heard my screams.

"What!? What are you doing?!"

Seeing my predicament, Lucia rushed to me.

"Oh, I know what this monster is!" 

"Oh, this is a cannibal flower."

Noelle's words sent chills down my spine.

"Hey, cannibal flower!? What? Am I going to be eaten!?" 

"If it's a woman, she'll be eaten, but if it's a man, it's..."

Noelle went silent.

"What's going to happen? If you stop mid-sentence, it means I am going to die!"

"I don't mind if you say it, but won't you pull it out?"

 "Is it something to pull out!?"

I'm getting even more scared.

"Well, to put it simply... you are going to be squeezed to death." 

"Huh?"

 "To explain in more detail, you get trapped in that mouth-like plant, and only your clothes will dissolve. The dissolution has an aphrodisiac ingredient, so you are forced to get an erection, and you will be rubbed all over your body inside the plant, which is tight as it is."

...

"Are you serious?" 

"Seriously, seriously."

 "What a creepy exotic plant!"

 "I can't help it. Because it's a plant monster, it has that kind of habit. Men are supposed to build up magic in their testicles. That's why semen is packed with thick magic, and it instinctively makes the monster want to ingest it."

It was like the slime before, and I was starting to feel it, but this time I was convinced.

In this world, there are usually monsters that sexually attack men.

In the fantasy concept of my world, it seems natural that there are monsters that attack women, but is it the same?

It's a different world where the idea of chastity is reversed, so if you were happy to be pampered by a woman, a trap was waiting for you! I hate just imagining being attacked by a monster.

"If I am humiliated by such a plant, I will not be able to live anymore!"

Perhaps trying to calm me down, Lucia spoke in a calm voice.

"It's okay. Cannibal flowers move slowly, so it will be a day before they get to their mouth-like parts." 

"Please, help me now! I can't keep my composure because that creepy mouth-like part is just waiting for me!"

 "I'll tear it apart with my chain lock."

Noelle concentrated her magic on the palm of her hand.

Survived... I was thinking only that when Lucia interrupted Noelle's hand.

"Wait, witch!"

Lucia? What's going on?

Why stop Noelle? Please help me quickly.

"Witch Noelle... Calm down and try to understand the situation."

"What do you mean?"

Noelle tilted her head, not understanding. Lucia sighed softly.

"Calm down and listen. A man who is about to be squeezed by a cannibal flower while upside down... Isn't it erotic!?"

Huh? What are you talking about? Unlike me, who was stunned, Noelle had a realization.

"Oh, that's for sure... It's erotic!"

Hey? What did Noelle say?

"You won't see such a situation other than in an erotic book! Let's enjoy it a little more!"

"If you ask me, yes. And to be honest, I've always thought that a man who is restrained is erotic. It was because of this propensity that I developed chain restraint magic. Akira is tied up with a vine and hung upside down...!"

"That's right, that's right!"

The two of them stretched out under their noses and looked at me.

Hey, these guys.

"Don't be silly! Get me down quickly!" 

"Just a little more!" 

"I'm almost done with today's smut delusion, so please be patient until then!"

What the hell are these lewd people?

Maybe a ridiculous person has become a friend.

There is already an idiot and lascivious Lucia, but if Noelle, who is also stupid and lascivious, is added to it, I can't take it anymore.

Will it be okay to be with these people from now on?

I suddenly became anxious.
