Of course, even in the world I lived in on Earth, there must have been people who liked the smooth, 11-shaped abs on a woman’s stomach.

No, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that a woman’s abs that highlight her wild beauty are one of the most popular fetishes.

But isn’t that a matter of preference rather than a necessity for beauty?

In that sense, instead of sexy abs, a woman could stimulate a man’s protective instinct with slender arms and smooth thighs.

And how about a waist so slim it looks like all the organs are squeezed in, and plump buttocks.

Finally, with all the ample breasts boasting a huge presence, she could be considered a beauty that is enough to make men’s hearts flutter.

At this point, I couldn’t help but wonder…?

“….Do beautiful women in this world need muscles?”

Upon asking, her face didn’t change as if looking at something pitiful.

“Well, it’s only natural, isn’t it? Whether it’s a beauty or just any person, they should have strong muscles in their arms with visible veins and tone, thighs that can be compared to that, and well-defined abs.”

Oh my goodness, dear Lord.

I was left speechless by her passionate praise of muscles.

What kind of hell was this place where people lived?

I thought it was a typical fantasy dimension, but it turned out to be a world of muscle-crazy gym rats.

Listening to her words, I couldn’t help but think of those fanatics on Earth who wouldn’t even touch carbohydrates for fear of losing muscle mass.

“Why should women have well-defined abs?”

After passionately discussing the beauty of tightly toned muscles for a while, she suddenly glanced in my direction and said,

“Hmm. You have quite a nice body too. From your arm muscles to your well-defined thighs…. How about your abs?”

To which I casually lifted my shirt and said,

“Do you want to see?”

“Hmm. Are you sure it’s okay?”

Even without waiting for permission, she shamelessly blushed and placed her hand on my stomach.

The ghostly figure from earlier was nowhere to be seen, replaced by a shy girl.

Haha. I understand why the success rate of matching with her is 92%.

The explanation that there isn’t a single person in the vast universe who likes me might actually be a straightforward fact.

Instead, there was someone who appreciated my body, which was nothing but muscles due to the extreme lack of abilities awakened as a hunter.

Honestly, if it weren’t for the situation of being stranded in this strange land, I might have been moved.

“Um….”

Anyway, that’s how the Elf Paladin Commander admired my abs with a gentle touch.

“Oh. I got too carried away and touched you. Hmm. Anyway, if this is the ideal body of the opposite sex, it should have these muscles attached.”

She then admired my abs once again.

“By the way, it’s truly an ideal body. The citizens of the kingdom might want to know the secret behind it.”

Well, it was a body that I had worked hard to build.

Right now, my body was a culmination of efforts to survive as a low-ranking hunter.

Ha. But how can I regain my shattered self-esteem at rock bottom?

In the world I live in, regardless of nationality, there would have been men who were eager to say a word to her, but now I was just a frustrated man with a lost sense of self-worth.

However, she seemed to lack confidence in her appearance compared to the confident women on Earth who were much more attractive than me.

Unlike when she was pressing a knife against my throat, her demeanor completely changed as the topic of conversation shifted to her charm as a woman.

Thanks to this, I was able to confidently deliver a work-related comment that I wouldn’t have dared to make in my original world.

Despite suddenly finding myself in a strange world, I quickly adapted to the unfamiliar land that revealed aspects unseen on Earth. It was clear that the man who dared to hit on a woman in this strange realm, or rather, in this otherworldly land, had thick nerves in many ways.

“No, I came here to meet you, the woman. You look really beautiful to me.”

As she blushed like a ripe tomato with her reddish complexion, it was evident even to someone as clueless as me that she was embarrassed.

With her face still flushed, she covered her face with one hand and gestured to stop me with the other, speaking incoherently.

“Stop saying such things… Anyway, do you think I’ll fall for that? You, too…”

…But isn’t her behavior a bit contradictory to the negative words coming out of her mouth?

Although I may not have met many women, I could tell that she was quite pleased to hear my words.

After blushing shyly for a while, she suddenly seemed to realize something, widening her eyes and showing a heightened sense of alertness towards me.

“Ha, this is not the time. I almost let it slide. How dare this guy tempt me by flaunting his toned body…!”

Wait, when did I do that?!

…Well, if I didn’t think there was a possibility, it would be a lie, but anyway!

Her reaction, which was so unjustly tense, made me feel indignant, but there was no point in expressing that injustice.

In the end, she restrained me with a rope she had brought from somewhere.

“Huh? Huh?”

“Anyway, I plan to take you to the royal palace like this.”

And she began preparing to take me to the kingdom that had been mentioned earlier.

“Wait, I’m not a suspicious person, you know?”

I naturally protested my innocence, but…

“Hmph. That will be judged by my lord.”

Is there any way out of this situation?

Helpless against her superiority, I found myself in a truly helpless situation.

From now on, she firmly closed her mouth, refusing to listen to anything I said, and meticulously cleaned her wet body.

With her decadent beauty hidden beneath her armor, she forcibly escorted me to the entrance of the valley.

“Splash.”

There, a creature similar to a horse was waiting for her, with six legs and a horn on its forehead.

‘A unicorn?’

As I briefly thought of a unicorn while looking at the horse’s appearance, she pushed me slightly and said, “Ride.”

And that was the moment.

Now, without any fanfare, the system window appeared before me.

=========

[Matching time has ended.]

=========

…What?

With a nonchalant expression, I took one last look at her reaching out to me before returning to my original world.

*

“….Ah.”

After a long while, I let out a sigh as I glanced around my familiar room once again.

The recent experience…

“It couldn’t have been a dream, right?”

It was too surreal to be considered reality, but one thing was certain – it wasn’t a dream.

I found myself staring at the phone that had reappeared in my hand at some point.

=========

[Interdimensional Dating App]

=========

On the phone’s main screen, the app that had led me to that place was shamelessly occupying its place.

“Ah.”

How should I even begin to explain what I just experienced?

Even in a world where setting mountains ablaze and splitting them with a single sword was possible, the experience I had just gone through defied explanation.

In a world where common sense didn’t apply, where dungeons could appear in a world without dungeons…

It was just as likely to bring about something as absurd as bringing chaos to the world.

I looked at the app on my phone once again.

‘Interdimensional Dating App….’

If this had happened before the similar incident…

If using this app could allow me to meet women who would respond positively to my clumsy remarks like the elf woman from earlier…

And if it could lead to a good relationship with those beautiful women… that would truly be an unexpected turn of events for a man.

The desire to become romantically involved with beautiful women was not the reason I had installed the dating app today.

More wealth, attractive partners, and the absolute power to make anyone bend to your will.

If you were a man, no, if you were a person, you would always harbor that desire deep within your heart.

But despite having had this experience, there was one thing that made me hesitate…

‘But the risk of using this app based on just this…’

Sure, I had breezed through the situation with a light heart, but if I were to reconsider, what had just happened was truly a dangerous situation.

If I continued to use an app that could send me to another world without any caution, I could easily foresee facing similar situations in the future.

While it wasn’t that I had no desire to make a suggestive remark to her, the instinct for survival had kicked in to escape the dangerous situation.

Seeing her momentarily vulnerable, even though she was much more powerful than me, was just a momentary lapse that had led to my suggestive remark.

Whether there was a possibility or not, I had to do whatever it took to avoid that situation.

Anyway, I’d rather lower my gaze than go through such a dangerous situation again.

That was my honest feeling after experiencing such a perilous situation.

“Huh? What’s this now?”

As I pondered whether it was wise to continue using this app with a cautious perspective, an alert from the app popped up.

“Well, this changes the conversation quite a bit…”

Not only did it alleviate my worries, but the alert seemed to encourage me to keep using the app.
