episode_0008

My head was spinning.

What is it? What’s going on?

I feel like something… bad has happened.

“Um… .”

But nothing really came to mind.

Is this an illusion?

I think I’ve lost my mind a little because the situation is so desperate.

I knocked on the ball twice and came to my senses.

Yeah, now is not the time.

Should I attack or should I run away?

Suddenly, I looked at the goblins again and felt a strange longing for them.

Hmm… . After all, isn’t it a bit of a shame to kill someone?

After thinking about it carefully, it doesn’t seem like we’ll win anyway, so let’s just run away.

I jumped up and slowly backed away.

What if… what if it fails?

I’m really dying.

But, if that happens… well, there’s nothing I can do.

I stepped back, prepared to die, but fortunately they didn’t chase me.

Did it work?

As I stepped back a little further, their figures disappeared.

It worked!

I finally managed to survive them!

As soon as I saw the message that the escape was successful, I ran straight to the castle.

Please, I don’t want to encounter any more monsters!

And fortunately enough, we didn’t have any unfortunate encounters with monsters on our way to the castle.

“Ugh, ugh… .”

I stood in front of the gate, catching my breath and looking around.

If it’s a castle, there must be guards, right?

As expected, two guards were seen standing next to the door.

It’s a bit ridiculous to think that just those two are guarding the entrance to such a large city, but I’ve decided not to react to this any longer.

Anyway, isn’t this a city where everything is there?

First, go straight to the inn and spend the night… Oh, and the item window.

How do I get money out?

If there was an item window, it would have been displayed there as well, but I don’t know what they want me to do without even giving me something like this.

“… Bag?”

As I read the message in front of me and muttered in vain, a new window soon popped up.

“No… Seriously… .”

I’ve noticed that when I get too angry, I lose the desire to get angry.

Why are you giving this to me now?

Quest reward? Was there a quest?

“Quest.”

Nothing appears.

Surely you’re not giving the quest window as a quest reward or something like that?

“… Request. Notification window.”

I said every word that came to mind, but there was no response.

“Fuck… .”

Yeah, that’s the original game.

Shit game. Trash game.

If I could rate this game, it would be an absolute one star.

If there had been a potion, I wouldn’t have had to suffer like this… .

Of course, it seemed like getting here was a clear condition, so I probably couldn’t use the potion in that situation, but I couldn’t help but feel angry.

I covered my body slightly and stepped into the castle.

“Wait, you can’t go in dressed like that.”

I had a hope, but it was as expected.

The guards wouldn’t let me in.

This is also a familiar pattern.

In games where your clothes are torn when you are hit, there is often a penalty where you cannot enter the town with your clothes damaged.

Of course, I don’t really get caught walking around naked in the village… but I would never do that, so this is irrelevant.

If a woman like this were walking around in real life, the police would stop her.

This could be seen as a fairly normal reaction.

however….

There is no way to repair it!

Don’t you have a repair kit or something?

All I have in my bag is gold and potions.

… potion?

I took out a potion with a skeptical mind.

It wasn’t difficult to take it out.

I just thought about it and it appeared in my hand on its own.

I drank the contents of the small HP potion in my bag, watching it change to 2.

Swish.

My stamina increased by 50 with a strange sound effect.

No, are the clothes really being repaired?

It was so absurd that I couldn’t help but laugh.

When your stamina decreases, your clothes will come off regardless of the affected area, so I wondered if that was the case, but it seems that as soon as your stamina is restored, your clothes will return.

These guys are roughly made… .

I feel like I understand the game a little better.

After drinking all three bottles on the spot and recovering 150 stamina, I confidently entered the city.

Of course, they didn’t say anything even though they saw me remaking the clothes right before their eyes.

“Oh… .”

Is this a city?

I don’t know the name, but it was exactly like a medieval city in a JRPG.

Roads paved with amazing technology and buildings placed at regular intervals like a planned city.

When I saw the sign, I could tell right away what it was. The ones that weren’t there were probably regular houses.

As I looked around curiously, the accommodation quickly came into view.

Yeah, let’s go sightseeing tomorrow and rest for now!

I went straight into the building that said “inn.”

“Welcome.”

An old man who looked like he was running an inn greeted me.

Judging from his appearance, he seems kind, but this is the world of a night game.

You shouldn’t believe it yet.

“Please give me a room.”

I hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to say.

By the way, your voice is really pretty. If it weren’t for my voice, I might have fallen for you.

“There are two types of rooms in our inn. Which one would you like?”

Two types?

“Uh… What’s different?”

“One is 10 gold per night, the other is 50 gold.”

Is it the same difference between a regular room and a suite?

There’s no need to choose an expensive one, right?

“10 Gold rooms are cheap, but have no partitions… .”

◦Please give me “50 gold.”

Shit, I almost got fooled for a second.

What? There’s no partition?

Anyone can see that it’s an inn event.

If I stay in a room like that, it’s obvious that homeless men will come and rape me during the night.

They might even give you a drink or food laced with drugs as a service!

I vowed never to accept anything this old man offered me.

He handed me the keys, not caring about my wary gaze.

“Room 10.”

There are also many rooms… .

I climbed the stairs and found my room.

The facilities aren’t anything special, but there are still beds.

“Haaah… .”

As soon as I took off my armor, I dove straight into the bed.

My heart was heaving as I lay buried in the soft bed, but I decided not to care for now.

Yeah, this is it.

This is rest!

I took off my armor and was now wearing only my underwear.

You’ll probably need some casual clothes too.

It’s not like you can always wear armor.

Bikini armor is heavier than you think, so wearing it all the time gets tiring.

Oh, I don’t know.

Let’s think about tomorrow, tomorrow… .

I forced myself to sleep, trying to avert my eyes from the large breasts that kept blocking my vision.

***

And the next day, I woke up feeling refreshed and as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw that nothing had changed.

A strange room, a strange body.

Everything was the same as before I fell asleep.

I don’t know if it’s accurate, but now that I look at it, there was a large full-length mirror in the room, so I stood in front of it and checked my body properly for the first time.

“ and… .”

In front of me was a woman who, to anyone who looked at her, looked like the heroine of a night game.

Rich blonde hair.

Her breasts are a bit large compared to her height, as if she had eaten all the nutrition.

Yet her waist and hips had beautiful curves without an ounce of fat.

Well, it feels exactly like that.

A female character who wanders around with an empty head and is subjected to all kinds of sexual harassment.

It goes without saying that this kind of character is the female protagonist of a night game.

I’m going crazy, for real.

Looking in the mirror made me feel even more miserable.

Where on earth did my original body go?

If you think about it simply, it might be real, but I couldn’t accept it and move on so easily.

“Sigh… .”

Even though I saw such a bad sight yesterday, my body was intact without a single scratch.

Even his body was soft and flabby, so anyone who looked at it could tell that it was not the body of a warrior.

What kind of test would you do with a body like this?

It’s ridiculous, but when I think about it, it’s probably better than a muscular barbarian warrior woman.

No, from the start, there is nothing good or bad about becoming a woman.

As I was looking in the mirror and lamenting, it finally occurred to me that I should take a walk around the city.

I need to get dressed to go out… .

Needless to say, the only clothes I had to wear were bikini armor.

I, the president of the National Bikini Mom Expulsion Association, have to endure this kind of humiliation!

I put on my armor, my hands shaking with shame.

I was extremely upset by the fact that my body naturally put on armor without me having to use my head.

As I left the inn with a heavy heart, the scenery of the village that I had not seen yesterday came into view in more detail.

It feels more like looking at a traditional modern European village rather than a medieval one.

Well, I guess in the old days, in big cities, there was shit all over the streets?

I don’t really want to see that kind of scenery, so this kind of convenient setting is very welcome.

So where should we go now?

First of all, you need three things.

Clues to progress the story, basic equipment, and where to get money.

The last one could be earned by hunting monsters, but honestly, I didn’t want to fight and endure such pain.

If there is another way, you should definitely use that.

But what worries me is that this is a nightclub… Don’t do any part-time jobs that look suspicious.

First, let’s check out the equipment. Even if it’s expensive and I can’t buy it, I have to set a goal.

I looked around and found a sign with a picture of armor on it.

That’s probably the armor shop.

Perhaps for the convenience of the users, there was a weapons shop and a general store next to the armor shop.

This part was so right that I almost got touched.

How nice it would be if the item window was also taken care of on time…!

If I can go out and write a review, I have to fill it with swear words.

I entered the store with pleasant imagination.

“Come on in.”

A balding middle-aged man was standing at the counter.

Behind this, a workshop that crudely imitates a blacksmith shop can be seen.

Can you really make armor with that kind of equipment?

I’ve never been a blacksmith, but it certainly wasn’t a very good environment for blacksmiths.

But don’t worry about it.

Because it’s a game.

“Hey… What kind of armor do you have?”

Damn, the counter is so high.

Because of that, I had the unfortunate situation of having to look up at him while holding my magpie feet and resting my hands on the counter.

I felt very complicated because I could feel the change in myself even in such small details.

“Huh? Hoo… .”

Shit, I’m already feeling uneasy.

From the moment the balding middle-aged man appeared, the alert level was already at its maximum.

I felt like he was looking at me with a sinister gaze, so I quickly covered my body.

No, this reaction seems a bit feminine.

But even if I were a man, I wouldn’t have been able to tolerate this kind of reaction.

“Hehehe, there are a lot of good things in our store. Come on, take a look.”

I thought there would be a separate purchase window here, but it seemed like that wasn’t the case as the owner walked out of the counter and introduced each piece of armor hanging on the wall.

I don’t know the replacement criteria.

I listened intently to his explanation, cursing the game system for its inconsistencies.

“There isn’t much female armor… but this is about the size of a young lady.”

The first is a bikini armor that is more revealing than the current one.

Filter unconditionally. Next.

“Hmm… I personally recommended this, but it’s too bad. Then how about this?”

Never wear it!

I glared at him and then looked at the next piece of equipment.

It was a thousand clothes.

No, maybe it would be more appropriate to call it a robe.

Considering that it’s made of cloth, its defensive power isn’t what you’d expect, but wouldn’t it be okay if you wore it over armor?

You can even cover this bikini armor.

“It’s a bit long, but that’s something that can be fixed somehow… It looks like you’re embarrassed by your own armor, so it might be a good choice.”

He’s a better guy than I thought, isn’t he?

I nodded with a brighter face, blaming myself for being so quick to judge someone based on their appearance.

“Good. How much is this?”

“… Performance is defense… Huh? Do I need to hear more?”

Anyway, it’s armor sold in the first city. I don’t have high expectations.

Anything but this fucking bikini armor is fine!

“Yes. How much is it?”

“30 thousand gold.”

“… … Yes?”

Don’t I have about 700 gold?

I froze for a moment at the owner’s answer.

“Are you short on money?”

The owner looked at me with a slightly disappointed expression.

Come to think of it, aren’t armor usually expensive?

Still, 30,000 gold seems a bit expensive, but I can’t say anything since I don’t know the prices here.

“Sorry, I’ll come back later.”

“Hmm… If you don’t have enough money, I can give you a discount… .”

“Oh, no! I’ll come next time!”

I felt like he was trying to suggest something, so I sharply declined and left.

You shouldn’t be fooled.

Should I try playing Yagam for a day or two?

The proposal was as obvious as it was obvious.

They say things like, “If you show them your underwear, I’ll sell it to you for cheap,” and try to prey on the innocent protagonist.

After repeating this several times, the level will gradually increase and eventually you will reach the point where you will be buying equipment with the price of a gift certificate.

As an experienced player, I don’t fall for such traps.

… If you think about it that way, 30,000 gold is probably a steal.

I thought you were a nice guy.

I went to the weapons shop, reminding myself once again of the lesson that there are no good guys in the game.

“50 thousand gold.”

“I’ll come next time.”

It’s the same here.

Anyway, these are men who are crazy about sex.

The general store was a little trustworthy.

I don’t usually touch general stores.

“A small HP potion costs 500 gold each. Would you like to buy one?”

“… Okay, I’ll think about it a little more.”

The only thing I can buy with my entire fortune is an HP potion, and it’s a ‘small’ one.

I didn’t expect it to be a lot of money, but as expected, my entire fortune was practically nothing.

And yet, the daily accommodation fee is 50 gold.

It wasn’t that surprising that the prices in Yagame were in disarray for more than a day or two.

I think part-time job is the most urgent thing.

Since the game introduction image clearly shows the main character serving alcohol, there must be part-time jobs in each town.

The question is, is there anything that is actually normal?

What can I do? I have to find out about this myself.

Let’s also look for information about the story of Gyeomsa Gyeomsa.

The first place that came to mind was a bar, but no matter how much I thought about it, I only felt uneasy, so I ruled it out for now.

Let me ask the people around me.

But what should I say?

In the game, you always had to press the decision key to get them to talk first, but here there was no such function.

“Uh…um, there….”

“Yes?”

“Ho, by any chance… that… part-time job…! Is there none?”

“Yes?”

And I was a hoot.

Talking to a stranger? How do you do that?

My first attempt, which took a lot of courage, ended in vain.

The other person looked at me like I was some kind of weirdo and then just walked away.

… What should I do?

I walked around the city, desperately searching for any information I might need.

There wasn’t really any adventurer’s guild or anything like that in this city, and I couldn’t even enter the large building that was probably the lord’s castle.

The only thing left is a bar, but do I really have to go there… .

“Looking for a job?”

Someone spoke from behind me.

“Who are you?”

It seems like I answered a little harshly from the very beginning, but honestly, I think there’s nothing I can do about it.

The opponent is wearing a suspicious hood over his head.

If you listen to the voice, it’s probably a woman’s, but that’s not certain either.

There was nothing that could be known just by looking at it.

Just being taller than me?

There are probably few small ones.

Yeah, anyone can see that he’s a suspicious guy.

“If you want, I’ll give you a job. 10,000 gold per day.”

“… 1, 10,000?”

Your eyes may be dazzled by the amount of money, but don’t be fooled.

You’re offering me 10,000 gold per day? Doesn’t that seem even more suspicious!

“It’s not particularly difficult. It’s just… just a job of transporting one thing.”

If this were real, the first thing I would think of would be drugs.

I’m not sure if there are drugs here though.

As I stood still, she took it as a silent affirmation and spoke a little more.

“The job is very simple. Go to the designated location at the designated time tomorrow, receive the item that someone gives you, and you’re done… . How about it? Easy, right?”

No, it doesn’t look easy at all.

Isn’t this smuggling?

First of all, it is suspicious that the person giving it doesn’t come into the city, and it is also questionable why he doesn’t go out and receive it himself.

Aren’t you going to cut off the tail if you get caught?

As I looked at her with eyes full of distrust, she spoke again in a low voice.

“… You don’t believe me. Well, that’s only natural.”

Then she looked around, made sure no one was there, and quickly took off her robe.

“Now do you see why I’m doing this?”

She was an elf.

I guess so, judging by the pointy ears.

Like me… no, like the main character, she had blonde hair and was the epitome of a typical elf.

Moderately sized breasts and a nice body.

It seems like it would suit you if you held a bow.

“I just barely made it out. I have to go in because it’ll be time to find me soon. You’ve probably heard about the lord’s secret here, too.”

… I don’t know.

But I had a gut feeling.

This is the main story.

“This is an important task that will save all of our compatriots. … Please.”

As she said that, she bowed her head.

“Okay, I’ll help you.”

The Lord’s Secret!

Anyone can see that this is the first story that connects to the main story.

Of course there will be some difficulties and such, but if you want to follow the game story, it will inevitably be a rough ride.

The reward will probably be 10,000 gold or something else.

Maybe a colleague!

I nodded without hesitation.
