Chapter 40

〈 Episode 40 〉Quest 7 : End

Upon Georg’s return, he was both appalled and apologetic to Asha, who had already given birth. It was a rare display of emotion for him. However, with her comforting words, they deliberated on a name for the child and settled on Konrad.

Afterward, Georg ceased his external activities for a while and focused on caring for the child with Asha. Konrad’s behavior was consistent: he slept long and ate much. This newborn, who weighed nearly 8 kilograms from birth, was a testament to rapid growth. Georg, looking at Konrad, remarked with a hint of exasperation,

“He’s truly enormous… Even ordinary Orc children don’t grow this big.”

“Isn’t it a good thing if he’s big?”

“He’s too big, that’s the problem. I’m worried he might have some kind of illness.”

“Walter said he’s fine, so he should be. He needs to grow at least this much to avoid ending up like you, right?”

“We didn’t grow like this from birth either. We usually start growing rapidly after the age of five and continue until we’re twenty. I wonder what Konrad will be like when he’s fully grown…”

Even Georg, a giant of 9 feet, seemed in awe of Konrad’s growth. Asha, having laid the sleeping Konrad in his cradle after feeding him, kissed Lucia’s forehead as she stared intently at the child.

‘I’m glad Georg is helping with childcare. Lucy gets along well on her own, but she still gets lonely if left alone…’

Asha spent a week meeting only acquaintances at home before venturing out again. Having almost fully recovered her condition, she alternated with Georg in caring for the child while continuing to learn Spell from Walter and purchasing various necessities. Those who had been curious about the newborn could finally see Konrad.

The Orcs of the village were first surprised that Konrad looked completely like an Orc, and then amazed again by his hefty size. Even the Chief and Orcs who saw him for the first time wished the child blessings. Asha, who had been caring for the child with Georg, sent Konrad to the Nursery two weeks after he stopped breastfeeding.

After sending Konrad to the Nursery, Asha focused again on learning Spell from Walter. With only a few Tentacles left, she didn’t know when she would return. She had already told Walter, Georg, and Eva to some extent about her secret. They were surprised but understanding when she said she might disappear without warning.

“Asha, concentrate! If you lose your focus carelessly, your limbs could fly off!”

Walter, having shouted at Asha for not concentrating properly, cautiously asked,

“…Is it because of Konrad?”

“Well, I don’t know… I feel a bit unsettled. Although I visit him twice a day.”

“It’s inevitable since you were together all day and then separated. Still, if he doesn’t grow up like the other Orcs in the Nursery, it will be difficult for him to live with the tribe later. It’s necessary for the child’s future.”

“Yes…”

Asha’s lack of concentration wasn’t solely due to Konrad. Having spent more time here with the people than ever before, Asha wanted to stay longer if possible. However, it wasn’t something she could choose.

“Uncle, I’m going to miss you…”

At Asha’s wistful words, Walter smiled and nodded.

“I, too, have enjoyed the time I’ve spent with you, Asha. I believe that even if we part this time, we will meet again someday.”

“Please stay healthy even after I leave.”

“Tsk! It’s too early for you to worry about my health. Now, let’s continue learning.”

“Yes!”

Walter, dismissing Asha’s concerns, resumed the training.

Eva was in the Labyrinth alone for the first time in a while. After removing the main body of the Tentacle, there were hardly any entities in the Labyrinth that threatened the Orcs, so she hadn’t been here for a while. However, upon hearing the news that most of the Tentacles had perished, she came here again.

The ground of the Labyrinth, which she had turned into a pile of rubble, had already been opened by the Orcs as a temporary passage.

“They must have suffered a bit. I shouldn’t recklessly collapse things next time.”

Entering the deep underground through the passage, she soon encountered the Tentacles. Upon meeting what she desired, Eva quietly smiled and took off the clothes she was wearing. Not even wearing underwear, she showed her naked body to the Tentacles. Soon, the Tentacles began to wrap around her entire body.

“Ah, aah… These guys are a bit rough, heuh♥”

As the Tentacle constricting Eva’s limbs inserted a tendril into her skin, she moaned at the sensation of her belly filling up. The Tentacles constricted Eva’s limbs to the point where ordinary humans would have had their limbs broken, but her body, protected by powerful Mana, didn’t budge. New Tentacles continued to swarm toward Eva as if ants were drawn to sugar water.

Before long, Eva was being violated with Tentacles stuck in every hole.

“Heuh, heuu… euheuheung♥”

Eva’s blue face was flushed with the sensation of the Tentacles occupying her inside and out.

‘Ah, this is it. Tentacles are the best after all…’

Feeling a pleasure she hadn’t tasted in a long time, she cheered with her whole body. As if venting their frustration at not finding prey for a long time, the Tentacles thrust into Eva as if to rupture her genitals and rectum. The Tentacles, noticing that milk was coming out of Eva, were already twisting and squeezing her breasts.

Tear!

“Haaaaang♥”

The breast milk, ejected in all directions from her nipples, dyed Eva and the Tentacles white. When the time came, the Tentacles filled Eva’s vagina and anus with Semen.

“Euhaang♥”

‘It’s full… It’s almost…’

Eva swayed back and forth as the Tentacles thrust, anticipating what would happen soon. However, she soon realized an anomaly.

‘No more milk is coming out…?’

Even though Eva was immersed in ecstasy with her limbs restrained and her vagina and anus being thrust into, a corner of her mind was still capable of clear thought. She thought carefully and remembered that she hadn’t eaten any Nutrient fluid from the Tentacles today.

It was difficult for milk to come out indefinitely without eating anything. Furthermore, even though more than an hour had passed since she was injected with Semen, there was no reaction in her uterus.

‘These guys were seedless watermelons.’

When Eva realized that she couldn’t get pregnant from these, her expectations rapidly cooled. Eva focused Mana in her lower abdomen and crushed the Tentacle that was inserting into her with her sphincter.

Squeak!!

Some of the Tentacles made a sound at the sudden attack, but Eva, having already made up her mind, tore apart the Tentacles that were restraining her by pulling them with her hands without even using the spear that had fallen nearby. And in the place where all sorts of lewd sounds had been heard, only the sounds of breaking and crushing were heard.

In less than a minute, Eva had cleared out all the dozens of Tentacles that were around her.

Whoosh!

Covered in Slime from the Tentacles, she radiated Mana like flames from her body, burning away all the foreign substances on her body and even the Semen in her vagina. Once her body was somewhat clean, Eva shook off the clothes she had taken off and put them back on.

“Ah~ What a disappointment. Were they all duds after all?”

Eva, who had entered the Labyrinth with the intention of soothing her ticklish lower abdomen, only enjoyed it halfway, making her feel even more frustrated. However, her pride still wouldn’t allow her to recklessly approach her own kind.

One might ask what pride she had in doing it with Tentacles, but her own kind were more complicated because they were related to her social life and reputation. With a feeling of regret, Eva turned to leave when she heard an unusual sound.

Thump–

It wasn’t just the sound of something breaking, but the sound of a structure collapsing from its roots, coming from below the Labyrinth. Eva reminded herself that she was in the underground of the Labyrinth.

“If I’m unlucky, I’ll get crushed to death!”

She ran back along the path she had come.

Thump thump–

Cracks appeared and broke in various places in the remaining passages of the Labyrinth, and cracks spread down from the ceiling. The main body of the Tentacle had been maintaining the Labyrinth from collapsing by using several Tentacles as shock absorbers, but after its death and the removal of all the Tentacles, the Labyrinth could no longer withstand it.

Eva, who had started to sweat cold, smashed the falling rocks and accelerated even more. While running, Eva met two other Orcs.

“Eva?! What’s going on!”

“Run! It’s completely collapsing!”

“You crazy!”

The number of escapees increased to three. Eva stepped forward to deal with the occasional threatening rocks that fell. Not long after Eva and the Orcs came out of the Labyrinth, the entire Labyrinth collapsed with the sound of the ground collapsing. They were Orc warriors with stout hearts, but even they were chilled by the sight.

“Hoo… haa… Thank you, Eva. I almost got crushed to death.”

“Hmph, it would have been difficult for me to survive if I had been crushed in there. But at this point, can’t we assume that almost all the Tentacles are dead?”

“They’re tough bastards, so I can’t guarantee it, but there won’t be anything left to threaten us.”

Eva looked at the collapsed Labyrinth with a bittersweet expression.

‘I won’t be able to meet Tentacles in this place anymore.’

However, the collapse of the Labyrinth awakened another disaster that had been sleeping.

“Hey, Eva… Isn’t that moving over there?”

“Huh? What’s mov… Everyone, step back!”

Eva’s expression changed as the entire ground swayed, and she protected the warriors. Soon, the entire ground around the Labyrinth collapsed and began to be sucked into the center.

“This is really going too far!”

It looked like a natural disaster had occurred, but Eva countered it by pouring out dozens of spear strikes.

Boom– Crack crack!

The collapsing ground was completely split by the impact of Eva’s attack and could no longer spread. When the ground stopped collapsing, a boundary was etched into the ground as if a brush had been drawn on the ground.

Eva stared straight at the cause of the disaster with her spear cocked. Soon, blue Slime slowly crawled out of the cracked ground. It was the Slime that had defeated Eva in the past and changed her body. Upon meeting her past nemesis, Eva grinned.

“So, there was one more. Did you come out because you were pissed that your house collapsed?”

Crack- Crash!

As if answering, the Slime stretched out its tendrils and shattered the surrounding trees. She moved far away from the range of the attack and shouted to the other Orcs…

“Go back to the village quickly! You’ll die if you stay here!”

“Damn it… Hang in there, Eva!”

Knowing that they would be of no help, the warriors retreated from the two of them and ran toward the village to avoid being a hindrance. As before, the Slime tried to swallow Eva whole with its huge body, but the result was different from before.

Slash!

Eva, concentrating the power of her entire body, struck down with her spear like lightning, and the huge body of the Slime, which was over 100 meters long, was instantly split in half. The Slime, split in two around her, swept through the forest and crushed it. Eva muttered words that the warriors who had already escaped could not hear.

“Hang in there? I’m going to end it here.”

As the Slime, which had been cut in half, rejoined and charged, Eva began to fight the monster as if climbing a cliff. It was the moment when another achievement was added to her legend.

Eva, who had faced the Slime alone, finally broke the Slime’s Core before Walter arrived. Walter, who had flown in urgently, approached her in a daze at the sight of the Slime collapsing and looking like a blue fluorescent flood.

“No, did Eva catch that alone?”

“You’ve made it unnecessarily troublesome, Walter.”

“Ahe he he… You’re slowly transcending humanity. Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Not really. If I had been hit by that thing, I would have died without getting hurt.”

Walter shook his head, turning around as if he couldn’t believe it even after looking at it several times.

“Well, gee… I’ll have to think about how to deal with this now. I can’t just leave it alone, or I don’t know what will happen.”

“That’s right. It would be a bit unsettling to leave it like this.”

“Eva, you should go back. Even if you look fine on the outside, you must have strained yourself a lot on the inside.”

Walter finished speaking and began to gather the Slime mass in one place. Eva glanced at him and returned to the village.

The moment Eva broke the Slime’s Core, a message popped up for Asha, who was at home.

[The Quest has been completed by completely eliminating the threat near the village.]

[Returning to the waiting room.]

Thus, Asha ended her long-lasting quest and disappeared from the Orc Village.
