Rayos, in his Astral Body, floated towards the Dungeon entrance.
“Oh my, oh my! What in the world is this—! Oh, I pretended to be surprised, but… these guys are in the way.”
The entrance to the Dungeon was not far from town. Before it, merchants who wanted to buy materials cheaply from adventurers delving into the Dungeon had built a base the size of a village and were doing business. Rayos was surprised but understood. In Earth, taxis were convenient for customers with a lot of luggage. Merchants who would instantly cash out materials for adventurers burdened with heavy loads were, in essence, taxis in Earth. Moreover, they were stingy.
The morning sun began to illuminate the base.
“Lots and lots! ♪”
Adventurers returning from their morning expeditions were emerging from the Dungeon entrance one after another. The porters’ backpacks were piled high with monster materials, like firewood.
“It’s wonderful again today! ♪”
Merchants greeted the adventurers. They offered them a weak alcoholic beverage, free of charge, for a drink after work.
“Ooh, ca—♪ It goes down so smoothly.”
“You drink wonderfully,” or “As expected of adventurers.” The merchants would praise the adventurers to get them to exchange their materials at their shops.
“Come, over here. We also have some slightly more expensive drinks and snacks available~ ♪”
A party of adventurers, rubbing their hands together, headed towards a shop to cash in their materials. Other adventurer parties also followed, lured by the merchants’ invitations. After cashing in their materials. They went to a district lined with cheap brothels, where they could heal their bodies with the money. Of course, they also catered to female adventurers. Men and women who were popular in town, or those in need of money, worked there.
“Gaze—”
Rayos peeked into a brothel. With his head and both hands sticking out from the ceiling, he looked at the prostitutes and female employees, wondering if there was anyone he liked, deciding it wouldn’t be too late to head to the Dungeon.
Unfortunately, there was no one Rayos fancied. He quietly headed towards the second floor of the Dungeon, descending into the first floor.
“Hya! Invincible Might Sword!”
“Gob.”
“Gobe.”
“Gogya.”
The first floor, depleted by the adventurers returning in the morning, was a scene of invincibility for a few adventurer parties. After all, the first floor only had weak monsters. It had been dangerous when Rayos ruled it. However, due to a large-scale sweep quest conducted over the past few days, it had become a place where even beginners could fight without difficulty.
“Hah! That’s 40 down! ♪ I’m the strongest~”
“Idiot.”
“Strongest fighting Goblins? Pfft.”
“Don’t both of you just laugh. Leader, please extract the Magic Stones from the Goblins you’ve defeated.”
“~~/// (Angry)”
“Y-Yes!”
Near the cave that led down to the second floor, an adventurer party. A Greatsword user, a female Mage?, a female Scout?, and a Mage?. They efficiently defeated the weak monsters emerging from the second floor. Moreover, they meticulously extracted the Magic Stones from near the monsters’ hearts for materials. It was probably the Mage?’s plan.
“She looks like a gal.”
Rayos took a liking to the appearance of the two girls. He thought about taking them home. After a brief consideration in mid-air, he decided to kill the Greatsword user who was being ridiculed and making a fuss by the two girls. He possessed a nearby Goblin corpse.
*Flicker.*
It was barely alive, but sufficient if it could cast magic. Rayos, feeling satisfied as he was forcibly detached from the Goblin’s body, rejoiced.
“Wha—!? ”
“What? Trying to get our attention—!? Why are you at the bottom of a pitfall!?”
“How should I know—!!! Hey, hurry up and help me with a rope or a vine!?”
“What in the world…? Whoa!?”
Rayos, after dropping the Greatsword user into a pitfall with Earth Magic, possessed another Goblin—a corpse he could possess. The Mage?, who had been wondering why he fell into the hole, perhaps a trap?, was also successfully dropped into the pitfall. It was a complete surprise. The casting of magic could not be sensed. At this point, it was revealed that the four were weaker than Rayos.
“What…?”
“Is someone there…?”
The two girls, back to back, looked around to see if anyone was nearby. The sound of grass and bushes rustling in the wind, the death cries of monsters killed by another adventurer party in the distance, the explosion of magic.
“…”
The two girls cautiously approached the tree near the pitfall where their leader (the Greatsword user) had fallen, as he was being noisy, to help him.
*Rustle, rustle.*
“Leader. I’m lowering it! ”
“Don’t blame me if it hits your face!”
“O. Hurry up.”
A rope was lowered into the pitfall. If the Greatsword user could safely get out. It would be the turn of the Mage?.
*Rustle, rustle.*
“!”… H-Hii”
Suddenly, the branches of a tree behind them swayed without any wind, and a shadow fell upon them. The two girls slowly looked at each other and turned around. Then, what should have been just a tree appeared to them as a monster trying to attack them, and they let out screams. This ordinary tree was being moved by Rayos, who was possessing it.
*Rustle, rustle.*
The trunk bent, and it approached the two girls.
The roots were buried in the ground. However, they wondered if, underground, their roots were trying to grab them, if the impossible phenomenon they were witnessing now was actually happening—
“Nooooo!”
An uncast Fireball was unleashed at the tree.
*Boosh.*
The branches and leaves burned brightly. Rayos, who was possessing it, realized he would burn the two girls and detached from the tree, flipping over. The burning tree ignited other trees. Soon, it became a forest fire. From the direction of the adventurer party that had been hunting in the distance, a complaint flew, “Attacking with fire in the forest, how unbelievable—!” as they were engulfed in smoke.
“Hey!? Why did you burn a tree!?”
The leader safely emerged from the pitfall. The two girls, asking for help, explained the situation.
“More importantly—let’s save him. Leave the surrounding vigilance to me ♪”
Could the leader, who had fallen into the pitfall, be trusted?
“Yeah, leave it to me.”
“Hey! I’m lowering the rope!”
“Ah, finally.”
The Mage?, with a sigh, grabbed the lowered rope and climbed up.
“Gob ♪”
A single Goblin appeared. However, it was different from the Goblins the leader had effortlessly defeated. Why? Because its area was unbelievably erect.
“What is this perverted Goblin? Exposing its weakness ♪”
“Leader, be careful.”
“Ooh ♪ Just one Goblin is easy, win? ?”
“Gya ♪”
A splendid overhead slash from the Greatsword user. If it were just a normal Goblin, it would have taken one blow, or at best, one limb. But, unfortunately. That Goblin was Rayos’s Vessel Body, using a corpse (from the scattered Goblins).
“Gofuu!? ”
“Leader!?”
The slash was dodged, and he received a blow to the stomach from a weakling’s attack (Goblin Punch). The Greatsword user braced himself to avoid falling, and with one hand holding his stomach, he watched the Goblin’s next move.
“Everyone! Freeze! Ice Prison!”
The Mage?, having escaped the pitfall, trapped the monster Goblin with Ice Magic.
“— ♪ As expected ♪”
“…Where’s my moment?”
The Mage? stole the Greatsword user’s moment as the leader. Uninteresting. But, it shouldn’t have killed this Goblin just by freezing it. So, he would finish it off stylishly!
“Shatterrrr!”
“—…♪ Gyaaa♪ ”
The Goblin laughed within the ice. Its right hand turned black and iron-like, crushing the ice and grabbing the Greatsword.
“Why is it always me!? I can’t show off in front of those girls!”
*Crack.*
*Parry.*
The Goblin broke free from the ice and became completely free. The Greatsword user saw that its left hand had also turned black.
“Damn it.”
He hastily let go of his weapon and moved away.
“Gob, Gob ♪”
The Goblin, equipped with the Greatsword, mocked the Greatsword user. The Greatsword user equipped a spare sword and decided to cooperate with his three companions to defeat it.
“Let’s… run away… This Goblin is weird…”
“Leader, we have to bring back information about this Goblin. I think others will be harmed if we don’t.”
However, the three advocated for a strategic retreat. The Greatsword user, whose moment had suddenly vanished, felt deeply.
“…///”
Fallen into a pitfall, defeated by a mutated Goblin, and now fleeing from the Dungeon. If other adventurers heard about this, they would surely laugh. Facing his future self’s appearance. With his face red, the leader agreed with the opinions of the three.
You’re amazing. But, your opponent isn’t a Goblin.
“Nyi~ ♪”
The Greatsword user held his sword horizontally, blocking their path.
“Move aside!”
“Throwing Dagger.”
“Slow him down! Slow.”
“Pierce him, ice! Ice Needle.”
The four would have undoubtedly become a splendid adventurer party in the future. Rayos, hardening his body surface to resist the attack and Ice Magic, used his resistance to the Slow status effect, and then punched the four, who looked on in despair. He struck the two male adventurers with his hardened fists and the two girls with palm strikes, trying not to injure their bodies too much.
“Gah…”
“Ugh.”
“Kha.”
“Kahoa.”
“Gob ♪”
*Thud.*
Raising his right arm to the sky, he struck a victory pose against the backdrop of the burning trees. If it weren’t a Goblin, it would have been much cooler!
“Goboo ♪”
I’ve got the girls! ♪ And two of them! ♪ I’m a man who can do it! ♪
Rayos shouted, looking at the four writhing on the ground. After finishing his shout, he approached the two men. He hardened his right leg and crushed their heads into the ground. How hard and heavy was it? Like splitting a watermelon, their heads burst open, scattering their contents onto the ground.
*Thump.*
“No. No! I don’t want to die.”
The two girls thought they would be killed next.
“Gob ♪”
“Ouch! Don’t pull my hair. Please, let us go.”
“We won’t report you to anyone. Stop it!”
Pulling the two girls’ hair, Rayos descended to the Dungeon’s second floor. Inside the cave on the slope, the voices of the two girls and the Goblin’s laughter echoed.
Gob gob ♪
Noooo.
Someone!
Tragic female adventurers. Meeting Rayos was their bad luck. They gave up, accepting that their appearance was within his strike zone. Amen.
“Nooooo! Don’t come! It’s dirty. I can’t do that!!”
In Rayos’s lair, the two girls were stripped naked. He postponed the torment of his younger brother Cross, who was inexplicably molesting the female slaves he fancied. Rayos licked both girls’ entire bodies, and while teaching them lewd massage techniques and sex arts, he violated them.
“The Master’s new toys ♪ More companions for us ♪ Ahaha~”
“Help me!?”
