Ch.207Storm Observation Class (1)

“It’s here!! The Weirdo Slime!!”

As soon as I saw the Weirdo Slime, my eyes went wild.

I can’t believe it appeared right away!!

“Taiga!!! Tina!! Kirtan!! Run like hell!! And kill it!!”

I immediately shouted at the top of my lungs.

“Hahaha!! Look how excited he is!! He’s drooling! Drooling!”

Taiga burst into laughter, his body trembling.

“Hahaha!!! Shota!! The bloodshot eyes…..puhahahahaha!!!”

Tina also erupted into boisterous laughter.

No way. Am I really drooling? The experience points from a Weirdo Slime are just insane!!! Even with a full party, killing one guaranteed at least one level up.

I guarantee it. Once these guys get a taste of it, they won’t be able to think straight. Seriously.

Anyway, everyone followed my instructions.

“Go!! Fenrir!!!”

Taiga immediately summoned Fenrir and mounted it in a riding position. He had completely mastered the art of psycho-robo horsemanship. Once a biker, always a biker.

“Hyaaah!!”

Taiga caught up with the Weirdo Slime and immediately swung his baseball bat at the back of its head.

Ting-!

However, Taiga’s strike bounced off harmlessly.

“Tch. It’s tough…!”

But Taiga was quite sensible. Realizing the Weirdo Slime was trying to escape, he immediately blocked its retreat path.

“Here I go!!!”

Tina launched a flying kick toward the Weirdo Slime.

Ting-!

But the attack bounced off.

“What, what is this thing……”

Tina was bewildered. She seemed shocked that something couldn’t be broken even with her leg strength that could shatter steel.

“Good grief!! Earthlings are pathetic! Watch this!!”

Kirtan swung his sword gallantly, striking the Weirdo Slime.

Ting-! Ting-!

The first two attacks bounced off again.

Splat!!

But the third one connected.

“Keeek!!!”

The Weirdo Slime immediately burst into tears.

“Whether attacks hit or miss is all about luck!! Just keep hitting it!! If you’re lucky, attacks will connect!”

I shouted while joining the fray with my sword.

“Sasith!! Use ‘Dark Aura’!!! Hurry!”

I yelled loudly.

“A-Alright!! Come forth!! Dark Bondage Magician!!”

Sasith immediately summoned his psycho-robo.

Crack-!!

A man in bondage attire seductively cracked his whip.

“Suction!!!”

And a dark aura spread all around.

Shit. These skill effects are seriously… supply without demand!! The original game is supposed to be for male audiences!

Anyway, the effect of the dark aura was simple. It wasn’t a skill that directly affected combat, but it greatly reduced the enemy’s escape probability.

It was a technique to prevent the Weirdo Slime from suddenly running away.

The Weirdo Slime had a maximum HP of 3, and any technique that hit would deal 1 damage. In other words, three hits would kill it. Considering the hit rate was fixed at 30 percent, it was quite challenging.

Because of that, allies with high speed and multi-hit attack skills were preferred.

“Beat the crap out of it!!!”

I frantically struck the Weirdo Slime with my sword.

Ting-! Ting-! Tiding-!!

The attacks kept bouncing off. But with the mindset that at least one would hit, it wasn’t that discouraging.

“Hyah! Hyah!!”

Taiga also swung his bat like crazy.

“Just!! Die already!!”

Tina just kept kicking the slime repeatedly.

“Ha!! Confident in your endurance, are you?!!”

Kirtan thrust his sword with all his might.

This… the scene looks almost like a mob lynching… Well, it’s just a rotten monster anyway. Just quietly become our experience points!!! I had absolutely no empathy for non-human beings.

Everything follows the law of large numbers. The more attacks you make, the higher the hit rate.

Thwack-! Splat-!!

Two more attacks connected with the Weirdo Slime.

“Keeeeek!!!”

The Weirdo Slime’s body burst apart.

Splooosh-!!

After defeating the Weirdo Slime, the rewards immediately came in numerical form.

Ding-! Dingaling-!!

The party members’ levels began to rise tremendously.

Sasith, who had a fast growth rate, instantly gained 3 levels, while the others gained 1 or 2 levels at once. Everyone was now approaching the late 60s in level. We had reached the mid-to-late part of the game where growth typically stagnates, yet with just one hunt, levels just shot up. I… didn’t level up. Experience growth for me here was really as slow as watching an ant crawl.

Humans instinctively calculate the cost-effectiveness of their efforts. There’s an instinct to get rewards with as little effort as possible. The Weirdo Slime satisfied that desire.

It was only natural that everyone’s eyes went wild.

“Th-This is…!!”

“If we kill that pathetic thing, our levels rise instantly?!!!”

Everyone was excited.

Hehehe. See? I told you they wouldn’t be able to think straight.

“Sh-Shota.”

Sasith gulped and looked at me.

“Does that… Weirdo Slime thing… appear often around here?”

Sasith had also become a slave to leveling up. His eyes were also shining with desire.

“Yeah! If we wander around enough, we’ll probably find one or two more!”

I said.

“Good. Then let’s prioritize hunting Weirdo Slimes. We need to get stronger for the August dungeon.”

Sasith immediately set that direction.

———-

The Ancient Slimes we encountered randomly were just a bonus. The real targets were the Weirdo Slimes that appeared occasionally while hunting.

It reminded me of fishing for cuttlefish in Jeju Island long ago. Cuttlefish tasted so much better than squid that we ended up releasing any squid we caught. Originally, we had planned to catch both, but well.

“There it is! A Weirdo Slime!!”

“Get it!!!”

Everyone was zealously dedicated to eradicating Weirdo Slimes like enraged beasts.

A day of grinding paid off.

Ding-!!!

Everyone was on the verge of reaching level 70.

But today’s farming session was coming to an end. It was already approaching 1:30 AM.

“Let’s wrap it up now.”

Sasith said.

“Yeah.”

I would have preferred to hit exactly level 70 before disbanding… but one shouldn’t be too greedy.

We decided to end it here for today.

Besides, we were students. Tomorrow, we would inevitably have to go to school. That was the way of the world. Sadly.

——-

After returning home, Eri welcomed us.

“Shota. Do you have time after school tomorrow? I was hoping… you could skip kendo practice.”

Eri mumbled hesitantly.

“Oh. A date?”

I caressed Eri’s buttocks, which could be described as nature’s luscious fruit.

“Yes. A date. And… my siblings have a kindergarten observation day. Our parents can’t come, so… could we go together?”

Eri said.

“Kindergarten observation day…..”

This was my area of expertise. My experience from that English kindergarten incident hadn’t gone anywhere.

“Yeah. If no one goes… it’s kind of lonely, you know.”

Eri said. Indeed, that loneliness was something everyone understood. There was definitely a loneliness that only children of dual-income parents could empathize with.

“Let’s go!!! For that day, we’ll be their papa and mama!”

I exclaimed with a smile.

“Hehehe. That’s nice. It’s like a rehearsal too.”

Eri blushed and mumbled. Eri… she really wants to have a child. She seemed full of thoughts about having a baby right after graduation. I’m fine with it. I had already decided that our first child would definitely be with Eri.

“And… they all sing about wanting to meet you every day. How did you win their hearts?”

Eri said with a wry smile.

Eri’s younger sisters, Hana, Mizu, and Konoha, were quite fond of me. They were all very cute, like miniature versions of Eri. They would probably break many men’s hearts when they grew up. Eri was already doing a splendid job of breaking mine.

“Anyway, they’ll be thrilled if you come.”

Eri said with a smile.

“Yeah. Let’s go.”

I made the decision. This kind of domestic date wasn’t bad either. There was a certain stability that only Eri could provide.

That’s when it happened.

“Oh my!! I’m dizzy!! Let’s have sex quickly, okay?!”

Umi flapped her arms while lying on the bed.

“The conversation is over. Come on.”

Taiga simply threw off his clothes.

“Shota. Hurry up.”

Tina beckoned to me seductively.

“You know that destroying a planet today was my achievement, right? You can destroy the baby room here with Shota’s cannon.”

Kirtan spoke seductively as she lay naked. Despite everything, she couldn’t give up her pirate hat and still wore it. It would come off anyway once we started moving vigorously.

“……..”

Mika, not wanting to show her sexual desire, quietly sat on the bed. Nevertheless, I could tell she was aroused.

“Have you been waiting long?!”

I smiled and immediately threw myself onto the bed.

After that, I enjoyed my happy time.

———-

And as I fell asleep, I opened my eyes in today’s routine dream dungeon.

Sasith and Frill were also there. Today seemed to be with Frill.

“Arigiri Shota. You’ve defeated another formidable enemy. That too can be converted into power.”

Bluebeard chuckled and said.

“Ah…..”

He must mean Shoji. He was definitely a named enemy.

“Not just Shoji… you’ve defeated more powerful ones.”

Bluebeard continued in his enigmatic tone.

Who? I don’t remember defeating anyone else.

“Well, come on. Let’s get this over with quickly.”

Violet said in a curt tone, extending her palm.

Palm… Violet’s palm…

I immediately licked Violet’s palm with my tongue.

Slurp-!

A cool sensation transmitted through my tongue.

“Hyaaaang?!!!!!”

Violet screamed and immediately slapped my face.

Smack-!

Her palm cleanly connected with my cheek.

“Hehehe.”

“What are you laughing at!!! No!! What are you doing!! Seriously!!!”

Violet shouted loudly.

“The price for tasting Violet’s hand… a slap is a small price to pay.”

I stated firmly.

“You’re really crazy…!”

Tears welled up in Violet’s eyes. Ah. Was I too harsh?

“Anyway!! Take my hand! Hurry!”

Violet immediately extended her hand. She’s still going to convert the powerful enemy’s memory? That’s professional dedication. I immediately took Violet’s hand.
