“Let’s go to the dungeon. There are some dirty traps though.”

“… … … !!!!!”

​

​

I said that we would have had a delicious lunch together, and that we would go to a dungeon after the meal to feel like an outing.

However, when my colleagues heard what I said, they all turned around.

The workers behind me also asked, ‘What did I just hear?’ I was left with my mouth wide open as if I wanted to do something.

… Did I say something that strange?

‘Oh, is it because you thought it would be dangerous? I can’t believe you reacted like this even though you sold the name you gave me. ‘Everyone is really scared.’

“Of course, you won’t fall into a trap. Because the Lord gave me all the strategies.”

“Well, that’s not the problem!!”

When he calmly asserted that there was no danger, his companions were even more upset.

It was Elizabeth who took the lead.

“I heard that there are dungeons with traps like that. A dungeon of lustful demons… But, you can’t ask me to go there.”

“Elizabeth too. Are you saying it’s safe? No trap can stop me.”

“… It’s not a question of safe and dangerous. I always thought, you don’t even have to realize that you’re a boy?”

She doesn’t have a problem with going to the erotic trap dungeon, but rather has a problem with ‘me’ going there.

Considering that this is a world where men and women are reversed, it’s not that I don’t understand…

“But, I really want to go for Rinne’s sake.”

‘If you want to use this shy wolf as a party member.’

I’m sorry Elizabeth, but I had a reason to go to the dungeon.

As a ‘Dungeon Princess’, I can’t just carry around a stuttering mage who can’t use magic like a piece of luggage.

Since I was frugal in repairing an anorexic tank and a blind archer, I was planning to repair her as well with the scraps of loot I got from the dungeon.

“… A dungeon like that because of him?”

“Yes. I definitely want to go for Rinne.”

However, after my words, the atmosphere in the room changed strangely.

When the purpose of entry was revealed, the air immediately became more subtle.

The three eyes turned to the new warrior, Rinne.

“… … .”

-Glance.

“Uh, uh… ? Ugh… ?”

-Look around.

It was natural that Rinne, who was weak-hearted, couldn’t say anything properly as she was staring at him.

The companions who were looking at her and me in turns soon sighed.

“… Warrior. You said that because the loot you get from Bonamana Dungeon is for you, right?”

“Of course, right?”

“Cheer, angel. Why do you speak like that… You were surprised!!”

“Savior, this was your mistake. How could a man privately say that he would go to such a dungeon for the sake of a woman? .”

“… … ?”

The three of them surrounded me, leaving Rinne in a panic and fidgeting with her hands.

As the three made eye contact and nodded as if to say, ‘Let’s seize the day,’ an inexplicable feeling of anxiety rose up.

… It didn’t even take three seconds for anxiety to overtake me.

“The number of warriors has increased, so I will tell you while also directing traffic. The realization that the hero is a boy is too… .”

“I know that the angel is pure, but he still has an attitude that can be misunderstood by women… … .”

“Dignity as Erenion… .”

‘Why are you nagging me all of a sudden?! As a complete person, I made the right decision!!’

Elizabeth showing off her strawberry daifuku with her arms crossed, and the three of them standing on either side and saying something condescendingly.

I don’t know if it was really because I kept waiting, but even though I waited for a long time, the rain of nagging did not seem to stop.

My gaze, wandering with nowhere to go, turned to Rinne, the main character of this story.

-slap.

‘Rinne, help… hmm?’

And, while the old hero party is engaged in a civil war.

I witnessed one thing.

“Huh, huh… ? For me… .”

-Wiggle and wiggle.

‘What are you doing all of a sudden?’

That’s Rinne’s bright smile.

The smile that has collapsed as if your mouth will start to flow at any moment…

Honestly, I felt a little bad. What can I say? Feeling like a true otaku?

So, with dumbfounded eyes, I looked sideways at her, lost in her own world, stroking the floor with her tail.

‘Was the dish that delicious? ‘You’ve got to taste so dirty.’

“A warrior. Are you listening? As a person of Hohenstein, you must be appropriately discreet… .”

“Of course I’m listening. Yes, yes.”

… In the meantime, I didn’t know that the discipline would stop.

* * * * * *

The long nagging ended with both sides giving in a bit.

“I will be careful when I speak from now on. I don’t even say things like it’s for you or it’s only you. This is enough, right?”

-Look around. Whisper whisper.

“… You can do at least as much for me.”

‘Tell me which beat to go with, you strawberry glutinous rice cake.’

First of all, I decided to be careful what I say from now on.

The main reason for breaking his stubbornness was the persuasion that ‘if a hero goes around saying things like that, it could cause political problems.’

Aside from that, there were some people who said that women might get confused if I did that as a man…

Even in a world where men and women are reversed, aesthetic standards will not be much different.

But who would look at a small child like me with such eyes, especially since he was single from birth and had no love cells at all. cancer.

It was clear that the three of them were making a fuss, so I showed off my skills by listening with one ear.

In any case, you just have to be careful what you say. hmm.

After summarizing the lengthy admonition in one word, ‘I will be careful with my words from now on.’

Next, I put into words my demands, which I have stubbornly fulfilled as a person of high standing.

“Okay. Instead, are you going to the dungeon?”

“There is nothing we can do for Rinne!! I will follow the will of the Lord and the angel!!”

“Still, Savior, if it’s a dungeon like that, we should be the only ones going… .”

“I have to go to clear it, right? There has to be at least one man involved. And above all, neutralizing traps is something only I can do.”

Even though I heard that admonition, I insisted that I must go for the sake of the fourth hero, Rinne, so it was confirmed that I would go to the dungeon.

My gaze was a bit lopsided as if I still didn’t trust him, but it was okay. All you have to do is prove it by showing that you cleared the dungeon 100% without taking any damage.

After summarizing the story, I loudly called out to Rinne, who was writhing like an eel in one corner of the room.

“Linne!!”

“… … … !!!”

– Churrup.

“Woo, ugh… .”

Rinne was holding down the animal ears that kept fluttering around with both hands.

In the end, she quickly wiped away the drool that had flowed from the corner of her mouth and quickly walked towards me.

… The distance became a little closer than before, probably because we ate delicious food and became a little more comfortable with each other.

So I sat Rinne down and started a quick explanation.

Of course, I sat down next to him to read the written conversation.

“It’s late, but you don’t hate being a hero in itself, do you? It’s not because you don’t want to go on an adventure or because you’re scared, but because you think it won’t help, right?”

“Uh, yes… … .”

[yes. But even if I’m right next to you, you don’t feel bad or hate me—]

“Puh. Why am I upset with Rinne? We are going to be colleagues in the future, and he enjoyed my cooking so much.”

“… Heh, heh. Hehe.”

-Talk. Booby booby.

As we were chatting, the back of her hand, which was holding a quill, touched the back of my hand.

And then he subtly rubs the backs of his hands…

What is this? Is this a sign of affection unique to the beast people?

-Whispering.

“… Hey, what do you think of that? That might not be stuttering.”

“I just thought he was weak-hearted, but his eyes definitely looked a little different. No, it seems very impure.”

For some reason, the fact that the companions’ eyes turned cold was a bonus.

But actually, when I was flirting with one of the three, the gaze I sometimes felt from the other two.

I glanced at the unfamiliar gaze and turned my eyes back to Rinne, who was still stuttering.

“Anyway. Then, will you join me in the future?”

“… … … !!!!!?”

“Ugh. Hero, when speaking, include the subject, predicate, and object to avoid confusion.”

“The meaning is similar… Okay, okay. From now on, as a hero, will you join me in subduing the demon lord?”

An offer to join us on our journey to subdue the Demon King.

​

It was a proposal that might have been a bit burdensome for the weak-hearted Rinne, and she must have felt the burden, so she pressed her chest and groaned for a long time…

“… … Phew, hehe.”

[There are personal grudges against the demons, so it would be a great honor to be able to join them. But I can’t use magic.]

Soon she caught her breath and wrote an elegant sentence.

I’m willing to do it, but I can’t do it since I can’t even use magic. Words similar to those written on the first parchment.

The lack of confidence and gloomy expression he showed us at that time was a bonus.

but,

-Help.

“It’s okay. I will do whatever I can to do that.”

“Huh, uh… !!!?”

When I held Rinne’s hand holding the quill pen, the depression on his face quickly disappeared.

What came instead was stiffness, as if I had been hit by a 15-day petrification spell.

… Why are they acting like that when we just held hands? I also wasn’t this stiff when it came to holding hands.

As if to relieve tension, I gently stroked the back of her hand.

“So, once you can use magic, let’s go save the world together.”

“K, huh… .”

“Will you join us?”

And then, her head nodded furiously up and down.

The dog’s ears flutter so violently that some of its fur flies.

“Thank you. Please take care of me in the future, Rinne.”

-Frown.

‘The fourth hero was also successfully recruited.’

He succeeded in persuading the weak-hearted woman to join the hero’s party.

Therefore, I winked at the other three with confidence, saying, ‘What do you think? This is the stagnant water.’

“… … Ugh. I shouldn’t say anything.”

“Patting the back of the hand is common even in the kingdom… Something, something is making me feel uneasy. Your Majesty.”

“Savior, it’s not enough to possess your older sister… .”

… For some reason, the three of them reacted strangely, but whatever.

* * * * * *

After it was confirmed that Rinne, the fourth hero and a wizard who cannot use magic, would join our party.

We rushed out and headed to the command center again.

A Persian cat baking bread there. No, Miao Amine welcomed us again…

“Ugh. Why did you bring that smelly hybrid… .”

“Amine!!”

“Human?”

“Please lend me some wizards! Only one thousand people!!”

“———Nyaaat!!!!?”

In the middle of it all, I put an iron plate on my face and casted ‘Give me a wizard.’

It was an hour before we entered the erotic trap dungeon.
