Chapter 248 – 248. Struggle, And, You, Me, We (10)

– One –

“Stop, saintess…?”

Blank.
Cheer up.

When Ada meets Slammer’s eyes, she freezes completely.

Drops the tray she was holding in her hand.

Something from her bowl spills onto the floor.

“Slammer!”

Wow!
Mungle.

She runs into Slammer.

“Turn off, turn off…!”

Tup, Tup.

She wasn’t trying to hug Slammer.

She was just trying to examine.

She just wanted to check her pulse and check carefully to see if the signs of death had disappeared from here and there on her body.

But the huge mass of flesh she clings to weighs him down.

Slammer, who was close to an involuntary old bachelor, had a hard time enduring such stimulation.

“This, this, this, this, this, some, that, saintess, saintess…?”

He trembles and prays the Lord’s Prayer inwardly.

He earnestly prayed and prayed for the goddess to believe in his purity.

And she prayed sincerely and earnestly that she hadn’t had an erection.

“Oh, is Slammer-nim in good health?”

“Turn it off…!”

But it was a futile prayer.

Ada was examining every inch of his body carefully, and there was no way she couldn’t fail to spot the center of his quilt rising.

But Ada did not look at him with contempt.

“Hehe. It’s okay not to be shy, Mr. Slammer. After a good night’s sleep, all healthy men do.”

She met his eyes with a friendly look, and she was only concerned about his health.

“I’ve been wondering if the restored body has settled down in a healthy way, but this time I’ve definitely confirmed it.”

“Yes, that’s right! This slammer is strong and healthy! Thank you, after the saintess healed me, I’ve tried using it a few times, and it’s definitely working.”

“Yes yes…?”

Ada’s face turns red.

Slammer becomes contemplative when he realizes what he was talking about.

“Turn it off!”

Jilgeongjilgung.

Slammer bites his tongue.

He shakes his head.

“That, I mean, the limbs are fine,”

“Ah, ah… I see… That, fortunately, that, there, that, the eyes and the main parts, that,”

“That, that’s not that his eyes and lower limbs don’t work, that’s-“

Ada is also perplexed.

Slammer wanted to die.

Shasha shak.

“Huh~? Hi~ Cool hunchback brother~?”

“Oh, brother…”

Estrus appears.

There was no way she didn’t know what the two of them were doing.

Slammer’s soul goes out of his mind at the name he hears for the first time in his life.

Thanks to this, he was able to completely forget Ada and the awkward moments that had occurred between them.

“Did you wake up early?”

“Yes yes…?”

“Huh~ I woke up four hours after coming here~? You’re healthy, right~♬”

“Ah…”

Only then did Slammer fully realize that the pain that had wrapped around his body had disappeared.

It was light.

It was refreshing.

Tears fill his eyes.

But before he could even get over it,

“I said there wasn’t when I came before.”

Cook.

“Hee, hee!”

Estrus stabs his penis with his index finger.

“Are you feeling better here too?”

“That, that, that, that’s not the intention,”

“Yeah~ I know~ Congratulations~ Hunchback oppa~ Your name is Slammer, right?”

“That’s right,”

“Can I call you Slammer oppa~?”

Wink, wink.

Slammer nodded his head to make the sound of the wind.

His eyes burned with longing.

The fact that he desperately wanted him to do so, he was expressing with his whole body.

“Hey~♬ Talk to me~♬ And you can call me Estrus~♬”

“Ah, I see, eh, eh, Estrus.”

Slammer’s face blushed, showing exactly what his mastery was.

Estrus thought it might taste like teasing him for a while.

“Rather than that, Slammer oppa~ Shall we sing a mono horn~?”

“Ah, that’s right! Monohorn! That, everyone else, it’s too late, so can you call them all? No, no! You can get up now, and I’ll go! Collect them all!”

As Estrus looks at Ada, she nods her head.

When her approval fell,

Tup!
Flutter.
Sarah Rock.

“100 million!”

Estrus pulls Slammer up.

Fortunately, he was fully clothed.

Of course, it was the new clothes Monohorn had put together.

“Yeah~ let’s go then~ everyone gather together~!”

“Yes, yes!”

Slammer couldn’t come to his senses at all.

Ada looked at them and shook her head.

– 2 –

“Yo? Slammer Shack. No. Slammer hyung.”

“… Brother?”

Mono Horn changed her designation for Slammer.

Slammer’s expression changes strangely.

He seemed very awkward.

“Eh. Even though everyone here looks young, there are some people who are older than me. They all live like this, brother and sister, so what’s wrong with me?”

“Go, why suddenly but…?”

Food.

Monohorn smiled softly.

But there was no sign of ridicule.

Rather friendly.

The same was true of the faces of the other party members who looked back at him.

“You betrayed your superiors and risked your life to keep your promise with us, so what can you do?”

“Ah…”

“And we’ll talk about it a little later, but hyung has nowhere to go. I think he’ll have to stay with us at least until the war is over. Given the situation, how long are you going to stay with this guy, that guy, and that guy?”

Slammer’s face is colored with emotion.

The worries about his whereabouts, buried deep in his heart, completely disappear.

He said it was for the time being, but the period Monohorn said would be until the moment he himself did not betray them.

If he does not betray only himself, the period will be permanent.

“If I, even if I’m with you, won’t it be a nuisance to you guys…?”

“Anyway, hyung has nowhere to go. We’ve become completely enemies with the emperor’s faction anyway. But if hyung’s help for us goes into their ears, can he be safe as a hyung?”

“Keuk, kuhm.”

“Well, if you don’t get caught, it doesn’t matter, but what if the bastard already told the imperial faction that your brother was attached to us? ?”

“…”

Slammer’s expression hardened.

“There is a fact that the bastard cooperated with Regal, but if the two of them return to the imperial faction together, I think they will both end up in death penalty.

“Okay…”

Slammer lowers his head.

It seemed he had no choice.

“Ah!”

Slammer shakes his head.

His upturned face seemed to have created urgency itself.

“Hooch! That Hooch leaked all the information about this place to the Regal Hound! I peeped at it,”

“I was dying after driving several poisoned bolts into my body. I ran away with that body.”

“Eh…? Did you hear from Huchi?”

“Okay. It’s okay. But I was sharing the result of the question. I listened to it.

“Whoa… I’m glad.”

Monohorn grinned.

It was because somehow Slammer seemed downcast.

“Still, Slammer hyung.”

“… Something?”

“It’s true that I’m grateful for keeping the promise at the risk of my life, and it’s also true that it helped.”

“Kuh, keuhum. It’s embarrassing what…”

Slammer looks away and his face blushes.

However, the fact that the corner of his mouth slightly raised slightly did not seem to dislike being treated.

“It’s true. I never knew why the Regal pup had retreated so suddenly from the front line. At first I thought it was going to catch up with the rear of the main force, but this pup just disappeared from the battlefield? I think the story helped a lot. Thanks to that, I could roughly predict Regal’s next reaction, and it gave me a basis for judging how that bastard would turn out. I mean it.”

Nod, nod

Everyone nods.

Slammer finally realized the true nature of his favor toward him.

“So, Slammer hyung. There’s nowhere to go, and since you owe us money, stay here for as long as you want for the time being. I’m not going to drive you to death just because you’re dead. Well, I think it’s safer than living out there alone as a wanderer.”

“Keuheum, keuheum. That, is that okay?”

Swoop, Swoop.

Rubbing his nose, Slammer asks cautiously.

However, the happy expression on his face could not be concealed.

“Of course, Mr. Slammer! I’m welcome!”

Ada smiles and replies.

“I totally agree with Slammer oppa and friends~♬”

“Benison wants to be friends with Slammer hyung too!”

The Honeywet couple also nodded in agreement.

“I said that from the beginning, let’s save it, well, Mr. Slammer.”

“Thanks to that, I was able to know the big threat in advance, so I hope you give me a chance to repay the favor, Slammer.”

So did the Cuelvos.

“Hmm. If Slammer-sama stays with us, it’s like three people of the same age.”

“Oh, Octopo!”

Ada blushes on her face.

The quick-witted Slammer instantly recognized who his peers were.

However, because he was quick-witted, he displayed sensible diplomatic skills that he did not boast of.

“Foda oppa. That’s rude.”

“Ah, ah… I’m sorry. I was glad to meet someone of the same age.”

Demosh bruises Octopoda.

She interrogates him briefly, then turns her head to Slammer and smiles sympathetically.

“Thank you so much for working so desperately for us. You really worked hard to survive.”

“Kuhmm, that, I’m in a position to thank you for saving me…”

“Are you going to stay with us?”

“Kuh, kuhm…”

Slammer’s eyes sneak up on Urmama.

She was still smiling.

“A hunchback man with a kkochu!”

Cook.

Mono Horn nudges her side with her elbow.

“No! Slammer Oppa! We live here together!”

I got everyone’s consent.

When no one objected, the corner of his mouth went up even more.

“Keuheum, keuhum! That, everyone agreed, that, without hesitation, that, together…”

Match.

“Good!”

Monohorn claps his hands once and shouts loudly.

Everyone turns to Monohorn.

“As the current situation is, let’s postpone the welcome party.”

“So be it.”

Swoop.

Mono Horn looks back at Slammer, pointing at her empty spot.

“Slammer bro. Sit over there. Now that you’re in our community, you’ll have a lot to share.”

“Keuheum. I see.”

Slammer sits there.

It was the gap between Ada and Estrus.

Slammer, who was synonymous with sukmaek, was looking only at the front.

The nape of his neck must be red.

“I don’t know if you know, but I’ll explain the background of this mess. So,”

Slammer’s eyes widen.

It was hard for Slammer to come to his senses when he heard a much bigger secret than he had guessed.

– 3 –

“Hmm… I thought I was quick-witted, but this is far out of the realm of notice. I never imagined that such an absurd secret story would be entangled.”

“Still, in the end, it won’t be much different from what you thought, in terms of a bowl fight.”

“It’s a bowl fight… That’s a cheap, but definitely a phrase that penetrates the core.”

Everyone smiles bitterly.

“Yes, I understand the background. Then, what will we do from now on? No, since we are already at war, how will we wage the war? How will we proceed with the plan to respond to Huchi’s informant?”

“It’s a future survival strategy, it’s not obvious. You have to fight, and then survive, well. What else can you do?”

“Kuhm…”

Slammer’s face blurs.

Because of the rumors he had heard back and forth, he was fully aware of how great the size of the imperial army and nobles were.

However, he could not measure the strength of the members of the community to which he belonged.

So he was eventually seized with insecurity.

Everyone in the party accurately grasped his anxiety.

“For now, you don’t have to worry about that part, Mr. Slammer.”

“Ah, Master Octopoda. Do you have any sharp tips?”

“More than Slammer-nim thinks, the strength of all of us is amazing.

“Is that so…”

“In addition, preparations for war were not careless. That part is so vast, so we will inform you little by little as we step into operations.”

Gulp.

Slammer swallows dry saliva.

His complexion turned pale.

“I-I, too, I wonder if I have to join the operation…”

Hehe. It’s okay. Slammer-hyung just watches from behind. I haven’t even tried to match his limbs, and he doesn’t have this ability like we do, so I don’t intend to force him to do anything unreasonable.”

“That, then, I’m that, what kind of help…”

Boom!

“Billion! Billion!”

Estrus slaps him on the shoulder.

Slammer looks back at her in bewilderment.

For the first time since Slammer took his seat, he made eye contact with Estrus.

“Everyone here does what they do best.”

“Uh, huh…? That’s, so,”

“I’m really good at fighting using my body~ but I can’t use my head~ Ada unnie is the best at healing and cooking~ but she can’t fight~ So just do what you’re good at~♬”

“Ah… Then, that, I,”

“Yeah~ Slammer oppa is quick-witted~ and his head is spinning~ well~”

Rocking.
Chin.

“Sigh…!”

Estrus rests her chest on his shoulder.

Sararak.
Swoop, Swoop.

Estrus reached out and stroked his head.

“Will you use your brain at every strategy meeting~?”

“Uh, uh, uh…”

He burned bright red from the nape of his neck to his scalp.

“Answer~?”

“Ah, ah, ah, I see…!”

“Okay~♬”

Estrus retreats.

Puha…

Slammer sighs and turns his head to the front.

Looking at his hardened figure, everyone smiles bitterly.

However, he did not bruise Estrus.

It was because they all knew that it was her unique expression of friendliness.

Of course, that was true even in Slammer.

“Sister Ada rarely goes to the battlefield. When you do need to do so, it must be a really emergency situation. Your brother will be the same, so don’t worry about that.”

“Okay.”

Slammer nods his head with a firm expression.

“And for the time being, we’re only going to deal with the imperial army moving north.”

“Hmm…”

Swoop, Swoop.

Slammer strokes his chin.

“I heard that there are also imperial troops moving south.”

Everyone looks at Slammer with new eyes.

Slammer’s shoulders get stronger.

“Eh. Exactly. The Imperial Army, which is now moving south, seems to be planning to retreat to the communication range in order to call in reinforcements.”

“I see… Is it the result of Miss Margarita’s perception?”

“Yes, yes…”

Margarita looks at him with a frightened expression.

“He-does it tickle you, uh-would you mind dropping the title that sounds like you’re calling a noble lady, Mr. Slammer?”

“I’ll think about it if I just leave out the title that sounds like calling a gentleman.”

“Okay, Slammer.”

“Good, Margarita.”

The two did not seem to fit well in formality.

“That’s right… Is the reason why the imperial army is leaving the southbound army because there is a plan to deal with them, or is it because you plan to gather all the reinforcements in one place and strike it down?”

“Wow…”

“Great…”

“Slammer hyung is cool…”

Exclamations of exclamation burst out among those in the party who were not brain-wavers.

Slammer shrugged his shoulders and had to make a desperate effort not to be condescending.

“As expected, one of them is the main rank. Anyway, to answer the question, I should say both.”

“Both?”

“Eh. First of all, we didn’t come up with any countermeasures to prepare, but Regal rolled his hair. That bastard doesn’t want communication between the island and the imperial army that came out on the expedition.”

“Hmm… I can’t stop them with only the privates…”

“Perhaps Regal is going to mobilize the brainwashed participants, that is to say, the unit of the supernatural powers under that bastard.”

“I see… Then you won’t have to worry about that.”

Slammer puts on a relieved expression.

In any case, the fact that there were fewer enemies to deal with was a welcome thing.

“If the soldiers who went down south realize that their retreat route is blocked and head north again, then we can go and strike once and for all.”

“Hmm. Monohon, do you think the Regal will drive them north?”

“Not at all. I don’t think I’ll just hunt down the survivors and kill them. I’ll just block them from going south any further, and I won’t annihilate them.”

“Why?”

“Because there is little benefit when annihilated.”

“Hmm…”

Slammer nods his head.

He clearly seemed to understand Monohorn’s words.

“Is Regal’s goal to be achieved just by cutting off contact?”

“Of course. Also, it doesn’t matter if the imperial army is forced to fight back to the south and is completely destroyed. It’s an enemy to be killed anyway.”

“Right.”

“Still, the Imperial Army isn’t that incompetent, so if you think there’s no answer after taking a few measurements, I’ll quickly return to the north. I’ll take supplies and materials.”

Slammer seemed to have cleared something up.

All that was left was to watch the game and think about whether there was a corner to help them.

“Oh, and. What happened to Hooch?”

The last thing that bothered him was that one thing.

All eyes are on Jose.

Slammer also secretly looks at him.

“Good job.”

“That, I guess…”

Slammer agreed not to ask where he was sent.

It was because Monohorn was making an expression that couldn’t be better.
