Chapter 60 – 5. Haruna, the Mother of Two Daughters, a Predator That Preys on a Predator

“Wow…”

The deepest part of the jungle was really beautiful. Like a scene from a movie seen on Earth in the past, the majesty of the waterfall created by the intertwining of large old trees, unknown flowers, and vines was enough to make one feel a sense of awe of nature.

“Fucked…”

A beautiful landscape is a landscape, looking for a tree with orange flowers that Eruka told me about, and looking around, I got lost while appreciating animals and flowers I had never seen before. The moment I strayed, I became a lost child in the jungle.

– Sasasak
Animals resembling little squirrels flying up the trees passed over my head. I hadn’t seen a dangerous animal yet, but now that I didn’t bring my sword, it was a pretty dangerous situation.

“If that doesn’t work, I’ll have to call Undine.”

Even so, the reason why I was relaxed was Undine, who was training somewhere in the deepest part. Yes, because if something happens, you can call Undine… The moment you move, ignoring the signs of the gradually setting sun and the increasing number of animals, you can hear laughter.

“Oh, I came here because there was a lost child, and a very precious lost child came~?”

Looking up to find the sound of laughter, I saw a smiling woman perched on a branch. She put the skull of a witch on her head and a woman wearing a necklace woven from her fangs and claws slowly came down in front of me.

Her ebony hair draped down her path, and she tucked it behind her shoulders, smelling of her fragrant roses. She scanned my whole body with her heart-like red eyes, and slowly approached me, covering her voluptuous breasts with her fingertips.

“Whoa… You’re actually seeing the person you’ve only been hearing about…?”

Approaching her almost naked, her voluptuous breasts and her hips twitching, she turned her body slightly and shook her hips as if to take a closer look. The firm brown body covered in her fur and the glossy skin, as if oil had been applied to her, stimulated the taste buds.

“Oh, maybe…”

Rather than a witch, this side had a visual like a priest of a primitive tribe. With her wild smile, Minerva slipped her finger on the tip of my chin, moistened her thick lips with her tongue, and slowly opened her mouth.

“Nice to meet you… My name is Minerva.”

“Nice to meet you. She is called Cassano.”

“Whoa… I heard a lot of stories from Dine, so I know…?”

Dinera-Chuck laughed and recited her cute nickname, then Minerva slowly lowered her finger, stroking the back of her neck and her collarbone, and stretched out her hand to me. As if possessed by something about her, Minerva’s outstretched hand held her hand, and slowly the two of us began to float in the sky.

“I knew it the moment I set foot in the jungle, but I didn’t expect to be lost. Oh.”

Minerva praised her, saying, “She’s cute,” And moistened her lips, sticking out her red tongue as if her lips were drying out. She tried to calm her urge to swell at the flirtatious tongue, and she bit her soft hand tightly.

“The surrounding scenery was so beautiful that it took her mind for a moment.”

“Uh-huh… Thank you, I manage it.”

“Maybe that’s why it resembled the owner and was very beautiful.”
“Uh-huh! Dine is right. Pervert.”

Kong- Minerva, who hit the tip of my nose with her empty right hand, looked at me with a mischievous smile. What did I do called pervert? Minerva said with a mischievous smile as if she had read my thoughts.

“If you look at me with such lewd eyes, you can feel it all…? Women are sensitive to the look in their eyes.”

I suddenly remembered looking at Haruna’s bursting breasts with the momentum to lick them. She held on to Minerva’s hand, thinking that she would not be able to contain it, so she slowly lowered the altitude.

“We’ve arrived, Dine will be very happy to see it.”

The jungle seen from the sky was really vast. Even though I flew high from the first moment, there were tree branches that brushed my ears, and when I looked down, I exclaimed admiration at the vast stretched out old trees and vines, and colorful birds flying around.

“Here it is.”

Along with the gradually lowering altitude, a wide vacant lot and heterogeneous buildings were placed all at once. A thick layer of smoke billowed from the house, which was stacked in layers of purple and black bricks.

“It’s in the middle of building a new one. It’s pretty empty, isn’t it?”

“I can feel the mysterious atmosphere, it is beautiful.”

“Uhuhu, thank you… Dine- where are you?”

[Master! Are you here!]

Looking at the empty clearing, Minerva placed her hands over her mouth and called to Undine in a languid voice. As I was waiting for Undine, looking at a posture that reminded me of a Japanese movie I had seen in the past, Minerva’s side was ripped open and Undine popped out of the crack.

[As you said, after studying and observing the spirit realm, we sought various advice on space movement between mutual consent with the contractor.]

Like a graduate student reporting to a professor, Undine explained without interruption with a clear voice and a straight waist.

[Casano!!!]

Undine, who looked me up and down with eyes as big as her fists, immediately blushed and screamed loudly.

[Ah embarrassingly, why are you coming!!! Come back quickly!!!]

If I said, “I didn’t come to see you,” The embarrassed Undines would surely get angry, and if I said yes, I’ll go back, the purpose of their visit would have been lost. Dilemma. Driven into hell, I opened my parting lips and said quietly.

“It’s Undine…”
“Casano-sama came at my invitation… Undine, what did I always say…?”

[Always stay calm, don’t put your emotions first, keep your reason…!]

The frozen Undine recited and looked at Minerva’s eyes. Seeing Undine, who is always like a child, pure and cute, frozen and fast-moving, was something new about Undine.

“Looking at what you’re doing, it looks like you’re only doing it here. Oh… I begged you to trust me like that.”

[No…! That, that’s…!]

“Dine first said that she wanted to learn something useful for her master, right? As punishment, go to the Silent Lake and pick a star willow flower…”

[I hate people over there…!]

“Write it…!”

Minerva scolded in a languid voice, put her hands on her waist and glared at Undine. The tearful Undine eventually trudged up into the sky and flew away.

[I’ll be back soon!]

Undine, who greeted me before she left, disappeared in an instant. Looking at the back of Undine, who couldn’t be seen anymore, he asked Minerva.

“You are the tiger teacher.”

“It’s not that strict. How much he insists on helping Cassano-sama…”

Since the two of us signed a custom contract rather than under the leadership of a proper Elementalist, we couldn’t do what a normal Elementalist could do. It is said that Minerva, who was looking around her jungle, felt a disparate connection between the two of us and called Undine.

“After looking at the child and studying it, one thing that has been blocked for a long time has been resolved. In return, I am teaching you the basics as a spirit.”

Minerva said that Undine, who was born as a lake spirit and lived an isolated life, was different from other spirits. He told me that if I told her everything, I could use Undine’s mana to cast spells, strengthen her body, summon Undine anywhere, and anything else would be possible.

“Thanks for the great help. If there is anything you want, I will repay you with anything.”

“Fufufu, I’ll tell you about that later. Is there a reason you came to me more than that?”

Apart from Minerva’s drowsy gestures and voices that gave off a sense of boredom, her red eyes were staring right through me.

“I have a fight with the beast tribe chief soon.”

“Since Cassano-sama is the leader of the moderate faction, you mean to fight Haruna-san.”

“You know?”

“We have helped each other a few times. Uhm, that’s right Given Haruna-san’s personality, I think she must have fought at least once?”

“Even so, I was beaten like a rat yesterday.”

Minerva laughed and began kneading my body with her sticky hands. Minerva, who kneaded her body with his strange finger movements, said with a languid smile.

“Haruna-san is the strongest beastman in the jungle of dreams. It is unavoidable.”

“We are going to duel with Haruna-sama for the position of village chieftain.”

“Hmm… Does Cassano, a stranger, have any reason to obsess over his position?”

I couldn’t answer the sharp question that penetrated the current situation, and I hesitated and finally organized my thoughts and said.

“He pushes himself as he pleases, but yes, even doing that doesn’t suit his temper, and I don’t want to give in easily for the sake of my women.”

“Huh, I don’t know what the situation is. There are a lot of things we don’t know about each other-“

With her languid smile, she grabbed my shoulder and led me, Minerva, guided by her hand, slowly moving her steps towards the center of her clearing.

“Rather, if Cassano-nim leaves, the three of us can talk to each other. Ah- but are you sure you won’t yield?”

There’s a story you don’t know- I confidently told Minerva who asked back with a sly nuance.

“Yes, it’s the seat my girls gave me, so I have to protect it with my own hands.”

“Fufufu, those kids seem to like it. It is a male virtue to keep the position of the leader.”

“I want to train to the point where I won’t be pushed back even if I fight Haruna-sama.”

“Huh- Wait a minute-“

– Suk

A hot palm that had dug into my clothes rubbed my stomach. Minerva, who was massaging my belly with her tongue out, slowly withdrew her hand and spoke in a slightly surprised voice.

“It’s been a while since I’ve accumulated mana, but it’s this much- I’m surprised.”

“You know that?”

“Witches and wizards have one thing to learn as their main strength. Observation is my specialty.”

“Huh- At this level, the mana training method… Or the application…”

After removing her hand, Minerva put her finger on her chin and muttered her unknown story, leaving her in a world of her own. She looked at the constantly muttering Minerva with her twinkling red jewel-like eyes, waiting for when she would finish.

“Fufu, Cassano-sama found a way to defeat Haruna-san.”

“Is that true?”

An hour to watch her Minerva, who was lost in her thoughts and showed no reaction, barely raised her head and saw Minerva smiling broadly, and approached her.

“Dine and Cassano-sama are both very special to accumulate this much mana without proper seniority.”

It was a story as far away as the stars in the sky, because I couldn’t learn or afford to learn mana practice, skills that accumulated mana learned by proper knights and mercenaries, five years after I fell in another world.

“I felt it without even knowing it…”

A mage who had been with the mercenaries told me that I had a small amount of mana in my body. I didn’t know that it kept growing…

“I will tell you the principle of the technique I know and how to move mana. Because I believe Cassano-sama will take care of the fight.”

“Thank you so much for letting me know. I want to repay you…”

“Uhuhu, I’ll receive the reward at the end of the work. Then, from today until the day before the duel, let’s learn.”

“All right.”

I made up my mind and looked at Minerva. You never know when an opportunity like this might come, so you had to seize it now.

“So when is the duel?”

“I haven’t decided yet.”
“Yes?”

The languid Minerva’s eyes widened for an instant.

“What do you mean?”

“I’m trying to learn in advance because Haruna-sama is going to ask for a duel.”

“I heard you didn’t decide. So you’re saying that the fight isn’t predetermined and you learn it in advance?”

“Is that how it works?”

Minerva’s eyes narrowed. A sigh escaped from Minerva’s plump lips, accompanied by her pitiful glances.

“I must be well-rewarded…”

Exhaling her sigh, Minerva spun around. Her bouncing hips twitched and swayed with her gait, leaving me to stare blankly at them.

“Follow me. Today, we will learn the theory first.”

Without looking behind her, she opened her mouth and followed Minerva into her house. She glanced at Minerva’s tanned brown skin, and until she entered her house, Minerva blushed in her ears and didn’t say a word.
