Day 587 in This World
All 10 Continents, Around Serimtul
After the frog fiasco, I wondered if monsters like that were on other continents too. They're not that dangerous to heroes, but I'm still worried about newbie adventurers…
I sent Bipe, Frog, Rab, Rat, Burnet, Bufly, Spider, Cocroa, and Slime to scout every nook and cranny, but the result? Nada.
Hmm… Maybe my worries are just a coincidence? Whatever, shake it off for now. Gotta handle what's in front of me to protect the newbies who might farm here (though, judging by nearby cities, no adventurers are coming…).
Aside from Continent 10, where that guy farms insects all day, making the area look clear with monsters spawning normally (when natural spawn rates drop too low, this world refills them with forest-like monsters), and Continent 1, where Tris slaughters 500+ insects daily, everywhere else feels like Tris's first day here…
After confirming no Goddesses or anyone's watching Continents 2-9…
Flash~
Plot twist: Reincarnated as a spider, now a human!
I turn a Spider into a Trueform Huspider girl, buffed with all sorts of skills to sweep monsters faster, chomping insects and anything in the way as long as no one's around. Then, I'll leave them to revert to spiders and guard this place. If that guy keeps obsessing over insects, monsters will overflow to the city gates someday…
Also… I need to talk to that guy to be sure…
…
Continent 10, Swamp North of Sorimtel Village
"Hey, big bro, whatcha doing?"
Clang! Fwoosh!!
"Eek!!!!"
Thud! Clatter…
Damn it, scared me to death! What the heck!?
The moment a plain-looking newbie adventurer boy—black hair tied short with a cloth, wearing basic adventurer gear and light chest armor (me)—approaches the tall, lanky hero of Continent 10, with his poorly self-cut short hair and gloomy face, mindlessly slashing insects by the swamp, he swings his sword at me, stopping just short of my face…
Chatter-chatter…
Ahh~~ Warm underwear… Wait! This body wet itself from fear! Even without a conscience, isn't this too childish!? …Did I make this dungeon-crafted body too kid-like? (I'm not in character, but dungeon bodies with loose settings kinda randomize traits to match vague backstories.)
"Not you, huh? Sorry."
Sniff, sob "W-Waaah, sorry!"
"Scared?"
No kidding! Look at my pants—drenched! …But what did he mean by "not you"?
"Waaaah!!!!"
No answer, just crying at him!
Fwoosh-fwoosh
He crouches and pats my head… Kind even to boys? This guy passes!
"Sorry, really. Lately, I feel like monsters are watching me, so I'm extra paranoid."
Hmm… I was spying, so… my bad, I guess.
Sniff "I-I just saw you… looking lonely, so I thought I'd say hi… sob…"
"Really? Thanks for caring, but it's not a big deal… Sigh…"
"Sorry for bothering you, big bro… sniff… Ouch…"
The boy? (me) keeps sobbing—not faking, this body's genuinely scared if I don't control it—while pushing up to show chubby, toned calves with wet streaks, milking sympathy to guilt this guy and buddy up! Since he's nice to boys and I sprained my ankle, how about a piggyback route home!? Carry me, big bro!
Wait, when did I sprain my ankle? …Oh, from that fall earlier.
"…Can you get back to town?"
"Uuu…"
I shake my head pathetically, milking it more!
"No choice then. Didn't bring potions… Hop on my back."
"Is that okay, sir…? Sniff"
"I hurt you, didn't I? I'll take you back, buy you a potion, and treat you to food."
"You're so kind, big bro…"
Perfect! Just as planned…
Gent (real body, Master Dungeon No.10 > Gent) checks—no HP drop, meaning the Goddess isn't watching now. She must be bored of this guy. Explains why monster spawns elsewhere aren't increasing when he kills tons here. Maybe the Goddess needs to watch and send some energy to trigger cross-server warps? (Did Melt do the same?)
Time to milk this kind stranger for fun… I don't usually play this role!
Fwoosh-fwoosh
He lets me ride his back without minding my soaked underwear one bit. Time to reveal what's hidden…
"Ugh, so embarrassing… I-I'm Garet, nice to meet you, sir…"
The boy, now piggybacking the lone hero, pulls off the light chest armor…
Boing~~~
And leans close against his back…
Squish!!
"I'm Toss… Urk!? Wait, you're—?"
Heh heh… Hit with E-cup tomboy boobs to the back!!! Giggle You readers probably wondered why perverted me would make a boy, huh? Dream on! It's a girl, just trying a tomboy vibe!
…
Alright, I fed him a fake story: a newbie adventurer from another village, farming my way here, stumbling across big bro by chance, leading to this mess. Over lunch, I pried info. Seems he's a hero traveling alone without deep reasons, and despite being over Level 200+, he farms monsters here. He explained willingly, though I'm not sure if it's the full truth…
"My skill needs me to rack up damage from monster kills…"
Hmm… Interesting power. Like May's [Pay2Win]?
But is that the only reason? He said "not you" earlier… I'll stick with him and dig deeper. If I hit a wall, I'll use memory-reading tricks.
Two hours with him, and the Goddess still hasn't glanced over… Either she's lazy, or this guy's boring as hell. Perfect hero for my experiments… One shot, three birds! Worth burning a body for.
Boing~
While sitting across, Garet (me), now in tight, thin clothes I prepared, shows off a full cleavage sans bra, wiggling and sipping water before setting the glass down.
"…Urk."
The gloomy, stoic guy finally cracks…
Heh… Total pushover, huh? Perfect… Time to charm him silly… "Following my recent playbook to conquer this world…"
