Chapter 129 – Dungeon (4)

The day after I was notified of the dungeon exploration by Orca, I headed to Marlton’s smithy to check my equipment.

As always, I left the equipment with Marlton and stopped when I was about to go upstairs. It reminded me of something I should ask Marlton about.

“Mr. Marlton, do you know this?”

I took out a glass bottle containing Orhalcon Powder from my pocket.

“Huh? What is this?”

Marlton narrowed his eyes and looked at the vial. He seems to be oblivious. I said without expecting much.

“It’s Orhalcon.”

“What?”

Marlton raised his eyebrows and laughed as if he was joking. The laughter disappeared when I didn’t respond.

“…Is it the real Orhalcon? Aren’t you kidding?”

“Why would I joke about something like this? I found it in the ruins I went to with Orca-sama the other day.”

“Orca? The rumored lightning maniac? Come to think of it, did you say that you joined the adventure party? Damn, I bet you went with her.”

Marlton’s gaze at the glass bottle changed. There is ecstasy in his eyes.

“Give me a second.”

Marlton reached for the vial. I pulled the vial toward me. Marlton narrowed his brows.

“Is that mean?”

“It’s petty. It’s mine in the first place.”

“You mean you just want to see? Is this the only trust between you and me?”

“Don’t try to go overboard.”

“Tsk, yes. That’s right. Did you entrust the maintenance of the equipment? We will only do what is right for our trust.”

Marlton grunted and turned his back. I was dumbfounded and laughed out loud.

“Damn it, is a grown adult sulking in a small way? Uhh, that’s good Take a look.”

I handed the glass bottle containing Orhalcon to Marlton.

“Thank you.”

Marlton accepted the glass bottle with a smirk. He turned around and looked at Orharkon. It looks like a child looking at a toy.

‘Did I go back to childhood?’

Because it is a fantastic mineral. It may have felt different to him as a blacksmith. I asked quietly as I watched Marton examine Orhalcon.

“Do you know how to handle an Orhalcon, Mr. Marlton?”

“…”

Marlton, who had been looking at Orhalcon, turned his gaze to me. He smiled and handed me a glass bottle.

“No, I don’t know how to do it.”

“…Is that so.”

I put Orhalcon in my chest and went upstairs. In my head, I thought about Marlton’s eyes, which had been shaken by my question earlier.

‘Why were you upset? There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.’

It wasn’t even a very special question.

‘Does he know how to smelt Orhalcon?’

If so, why hide it?

Doubts bit their tail after tail.

A lively voice interrupted the continuing thoughts.

“Ah, Mr. Yooseong, are you here?”

It was Ann, a dark-haired married woman with dark hair. She greeted me with a smile.

“Yes, it’s been a while.”

“Really. Why have you been so absent all this time? I was sad.”

“I had some urgent business. I’m sorry you were disappointed.”

“Um~ I like it. You apologized, so I’ll move on. Did you eat more than that?”

“Yes, I ate at home.”

“Okay. Then I’ll treat you to a cup of tea or something. Please sit down.”

Ann put her arm around my arm and dragged me to her chair. After she sat me down, she went into the room and brought her two cups of tea.

“Thank you. Mr. Ann.”

“What. It’s what I want to do.”

After setting the tea on her table, Anne sat down in her chair. Not across from me, but next to her, with her hips pressed against me. That was not enough for her, so she secretly rubbed her body.

Something soft touched her arm and I looked and saw that it was her breasts.

I pulled myself away slightly.

“Anne? It seems too close, but…”

“No, I do not want?”

Ann raised the corners of her mouth. Her smile, which subtly highlighted her breasts, was very bewitching.

“No, I don’t hate it, but it’s a little… Burdensome.”

“Are you feeling burdened?”

Ann had her chubby eyes. She then looked towards the stairs and she said, ‘Ah,’ she agreed to herself.

“I guess so. Sorry.”

Then, he gently pulled the buttocks that had been attached to her. Instead, she grinned and lowered her chest. Her upper chest was exposed, and her white bra slightly peeked out. The front of her dress barely covered her nipples. It is almost at the level of hanging on the nipple.

“Whoops…”

A sly smile still hung on her face.

‘Why are you doing this all of a sudden?’

I don’t understand.

* * *

Seris was not in a good mood. And she said the reason was simple.

‘Another business trip…!’

It was because Yooseong was on a business trip again. Besides, it seems like this time will take longer than the last, she says.

‘I should have told you not to enter the adventure group or something.’

Meteor has been busy since she entered the adventure squad. That meant he had less time to spend with Seris. She didn’t really like it.

What do you do when you get out? To be neglected at home because of work. Cerys said that she liked a good life, but she valued life with her family more than that.

‘I’ll have to convince him to quit the adventure party when he comes back from this job.’

She made up her mind and nodded her head.

“What are you doing, lady? Won’t you live? If you’re not going to buy it, don’t interfere with business and go.”

The vegetable vendor frowned at her. Seris nodding her head with a self-talk in front of her shop was the truth from his point of view.

“Oh no, I will live. Potatoes and onions, please.”

Only then did the vegetable vendor’s expression widen. Seris finished her checkout and put the potatoes and green onions in her shopping cart.

‘Was meat next? The lower part of the plaza was too chewy, so let’s go to the left.’

She walked towards the western branch of the plaza. Every time she took three steps, she sighed in frustration.

While walking like that, her familiar figure caught my eye.

‘That’s…’

Red bobbed hair in tall stature. It was Belita from Patrick’s Party.

Seris pondered for a moment, then shouted at Belita, thinking that it would be better to say hello to her.

“Miss Belita!”

“Yes?”

Belita looked behind her. Her furrowed brow straightened at the sight of Ceris.

“What, was it you?”

“Did you know who it was?”

“I thought Zoe came to salt her.”

Said Belita, clicking her tongue at her tsk. Joey was a member of Patrick’s party, a woman who was a chicken couple with Andrew.

Belita glanced at Seris’ shopping cart.

“Are you shopping?”

“Yes. What about Belita?”

“At the forge. I want to do some maintenance while I go to work.”

“Are you going out on a quest?”

“Uh. I heard that a big dungeon appeared this time. The adventure party that ate the dungeon exploration ticket sent a notice to the guild to recruit supplements, and we took that.”

“Yes? By the way, are you referring to the Red Heart Adventure Team?”

“Huh? Uh, right.”

Seris’ eyes widened.

“But why are you asking that? Oh right. Yuseong Han was also a member there, right? Is he going to this dungeon?”

“Bee, Ms. Belita!”

Cerys grabbed her Belita’s hand with both of Belita’s. Her shopping cart fell, but she didn’t care.

Belita was slightly taken aback by the sudden action.

“What, what? Why?”

“Could I also participate in that replacement?”

“Supplements? No, I think I already got them all.”

“That…”

Cerys drooped her shoulders, making her faint. Tears could be seen through the eye sockets of her mask. Belita looked at it and was puzzled.

“What’s up?”

“Yes? Um… That’s…”

Seris thought about it for a while, then decided to just let it go. It was frustrating to hold her alone, and because Belita was a trustworthy person. She opened up about her own troubles.

“Somehow, I didn’t want to see him these days. It happened.”

Belita crossed her arms and agreed. She then looked down at Ceris as she picked up her shopping cart, with her eyes downcast.

“Hey, can I help you?”

“Yes? How?”

Belita opened her mouth as she looked at Seris, who opened her bunny eyes.

* * *

“Are you joining Uncle Patrick’s party?”

“I don’t get a daily wage.”

Seris smiled and stirred her soup. I put the cut meat into her soup.

“Do I really have to follow you?”

“What. You don’t like me following you?”

Seris stopped stirring her soup. She puffed out her cheeks and looked at me.

“It’s not like that, and if you don’t get a daily wage, you’re simply suffering. In that case, wouldn’t it be better to rest at home?”

“Not at all. What is the meaning of rest without Yoosung? How lonely I was while Yoosung was gone…”

Seris’s eyes darkened. Kara, who was sitting at her table, helped.

“That’s right, sister cried a lot.”

“Aww! Kara, I told you not to say that!”

“No, I will tell you. How can I sleep because of the sound of my sister crying? Will Ariel agree?”

Beside her, Ariel nodded her head with a serious expression.

“Ugh… You guys..!”

Seris shuddered at her betrayal. I smiled and hugged Seris from behind. She placed her hands on her belly.

“Were you very lonely?”

When she whispered her question, Celis dyed her ears red and nodded her head.

I buried her face in her neck.

“Sorry. I should have paid more attention.”

“Oh, no. Don’t apologize.”

“Sorry. Will you forgive me?”

“I will forgive you. I’ll forgive you, so don’t apologize…”

Cerys muttered that she didn’t want this.

I smiled and kissed her cheek briefly.

“What, why are you alone with me?”

Kara came over, groaning at her ballmen. She hugged me from behind, just like I did with Ceris. I could feel her soft breasts pressing down on my back.

“Kara, didn’t you say you were coming too?”

“Huh. So don’t even think about leaving me alone.”

“I didn’t even think of that.”

He kissed Kara on the forehead.

“Tsk.”

I turned my attention to the sound of her tongue clicking. There was Ariel looking at us with disgusting eyes.

“Tell me, but I’m not going.”

“I didn’t ask, Kampyeon.”

“…”

Ariel shut her mouth.

.

.

That night, Ariel lay on the futon. After Yoosung returned, it was her who was kicked out of her room and slept on her floor.

As she closed her eyes to sleep, an excited voice came through the crack in her door.

‘Also..!’

Since the return of Meteor, moans have been heard every night. Ariel frowned and pulled her blanket over her head.

– Haeuk, ang, ang! Mr. Yoosung… Haha…!

However, nothing could stop the moaning from the heat of the moment. Ariel covered her ears with both of her hands. She was better than before, but she still sounded small. Her belly grew hot and the strength drained from her hands covering her ears.

She bit her lip and held back when she wanted to put her hand down.

‘Why are you doing this…’

Originally, she was the one who thought that even if she heard the sound of humans mating, she was vulgar. But now, whenever she heard her moans, her lower belly heated up and her inner thighs tickled.

If you think about it, it has been like this since Yoosung returned.

‘It’s clear what that person did to me…’

Ariel’s guess was reasonable and accurate. She said her imprint, enhanced with onyx, was fueling her sexual arousal.

“Eww…”

Eventually Ariel couldn’t stand it and put her hand between her crotch.

“Haagh…!”

Her body trembled at the thrill. Every time she moved her fingers it seemed like they would melt.

– Haeung, haeung, haaang!

The moaning that came through the door gradually faded away. Soon after, the moaning stopped. It culminated

“Huuuuu…!”

Ariel, on the other hand, did not go. No, he couldn’t go. This is because there was an option attached to the imprint saying that he could not climax unless he was the owner.

“Whoa… Why, why only me… Me, me too…!”

Ariel wanted to feel the cool feeling of the climax like Seris or Kara. But she couldn’t do it. She floundered in her whirlpool of pleasure until she fell asleep from exhaustion.

* * *

A week wasn’t long.

The morning of the day the dungeon expedition departed was bright.

After finishing our preparations, Sister Seris and I set off for the meeting place determined by the adventure team.
