Inside the Cave of Obscenity-Vol 6 Chapter 4: The Hero and the Goddess 1

"Ugh, I drank too much..."

"Wait!? Are you okay, Akane!?"

In a corner of the entertainment district where countless people were passing by, a woman was muttering bitterly, and her friend was gently patting the woman's back, trying to ease the nausea that was rising.

Even though it was around midnight, the city was still bright at night, with dazzling lights shining brightly at the entrances of buildings and stores.

People on the road were slightly surprised to see a woman sitting on the street, and stared at her for a few moments before passing by.

They looked down to see if she was just a drunk because they noticed that the woman's face was so well-formed that it was obvious even in the dark.

Even under the lights, one could tell that the woman was a rarely seen beauty.

Even with her eyes closed, her eyes gave a sharp impression, and her figure was polished and slim. Her cheeks, red from alcohol, give off a lustrous color in the midst of her dignified and cold impression, making her an undisputed beauty.

If one looked down, one would see that she was dressed in a ribbed shirt and ladies' pants, which were hidden by a women's down jacket and could not be seen from a distance...... but emphasized the lines of her seductive body.

Her large breasts, which were disproportionately large for her slender body, slowly rise and fall with her breathing, and one could clearly see the size and quality even through her clothes.

Her hips were so thin and her legs, which were thrown out on the ground, were as long and thin as those of a model.

Her feet are wrapped in leather boots, and even the way her feet move on the ground looked good on her.

Her shoulder-length semi-long black hair stuck to her sweat-soaked cheeks, and the way it hid her profile also reeked of sex appeal.

Her appearance attracted the attention of several men, who bumped their bodies against trees and fences, but she was so intoxicated that she didn't even notice the changes in her surroundings.

There were so many people on the street that it was hard to believe it was late at night, and most of them were drunk and unsteady on their feet or in a daze. The woman, who was ninety percent drunk, may have felt that they were just as drunk as she was.

The same goes for the woman, who was crouched down, the way she said "I'm fine" and tried to get up was just like a drunk person.

Once again, the woman mumbled, "I'm fine," and smiled to reassure her friend, and the dimples around her mouth gave the people who were watching her a cute impression.

She wore light makeup, and one could tell that she didn't do much to decorate herself.

The drunk woman, whose good looks weren't hidden, tried to tell her friend again that she was fine, but this time she groaned as she almost vomited the rest of the dinner that she had eaten.

"Ah, mou. Even though it's your coming of age ceremony, You're drinking so much......"

"Don't worry, I'm not drunk..."

"... No way, I had no idea that you're such a bad drinker. I couldn't have imagined it from your normal appearance."

Her friend sighed in amazement as she said that.

Indeed, anyone who knew Akane Shinomiya well would be surprised to see her in her current state, a woman who drank too much at her coming of age ceremony.

She attended a local university and was a well-known figure on campus, known to many people regardless of age.

Since junior high school, she had been a regular participant in national kendo tournaments and had even been mentioned in the Olympic selection process.

Her family ran a kendo dojo, and she was raised in a strict manner from an early age, so they were strict about her manners and etiquette.

She was 172 centimeters tall, which was tall for a woman.

She was tall and looked slender in general, but her breasts stick out as though they were stuffed with large fruits, and her waist was surprisingly thin.

She didn't expect Akane Shinomiya, who usually kept her dignified appearance, to be so weak in alcohol...... her friend, who had expected her to be a little out of line since she was usually so serious, was more bewildered than ridiculed at the sight of her drunken stupor.

"Hey, can you make it home? Do you want me to call you a cab?"

"Don't worry, I can walk home......"

By the way, her friend knew that Akane was living alone in an apartment away from her parents.

It was three stations away from this place, and it was not a distance she could walk home.

No, if Akane was working out, she might be able to walk home, but in her current drunken state, she would probably fall asleep on the way and she sighed in dismay.

"Jeez. You can't do it in that condition, absolutely. Alright, I'm going to get a cab, so just wait here, okay?"

"Nhh~..."

"Can you hear me? Well, if she's like this, she can't move."

She let the drunken Akane lie on her back against the fence so she wouldn't fall asleep, and began to look for an empty cab on the side of the road, only ten steps away.

It took a few minutes.

Even though it was late at night, there were a lot of cabs tonight, as many young people were out for the after-party of their coming-of-age ceremony. It was a good time to make money, as many young people were getting reckless.

While following her friend's figure with her eyes, but feeling too intoxicated to even move a finger, Akane Shinomiya noticed something strange in her field of vision.

Passersby looked down at the drunken Akane with interest for a moment, but no matter how eye-catching and beautiful she was, when they realized that she was drunk, they walked away without stopping, as though they didn't want any trouble.

In the middle of all that, apart from the lights of the street lamps that illuminate the darkness of the night, there was one light that wavered. It was flying around the edge of her vision.

(What... dazzling...)

Her mind, dulled by alcohol, could not recognize what it was, and she followed the light with her eyes, feeling dazzled but thinking vaguely.

The movement of the light was irregular.

It was as though it was observing people on the street, moving above their heads, on their shoulders, sometimes stopping for a while right in front of them, and then quickly moving away when it became clear that they were not responding.

A businessman, a woman in a suit, a man in a suit―― probably underage, a girl in an unfamiliar, fake uniform.

Then the light came to Akane's side as well.

Up close, it seemed to be nothing more than a light.

It was a feeble light, as though she was watching the light of a flashlight whose batteries were about to run out right in front of her.

As she squinted and followed the light's movement with her eyes, It must have realized that Akane could "see" it.

The light stopped observing the others and flew around Akane.

(Dream……?)

It was a strange dream, Akane thought.

At the same time, she wondered if being drunk meant she could see such strange things, and she laughed at the feeling she had learned at the first drinking party of her life.

(I feel kind of weird.)

She felt like she was floating, and her body's core was not stable.

It has been exactly twenty years since she was born into this world. Ever since she could remember, she had been interested in swords, the foundation of her family, and have been wielding bamboo and wooden swords for as long as she could remember.

Akane had never been interested in anything feminine, and it wasn't until she became a college student that she discovered that she was a "beauty".

Her friends and the men who came to her complimented her on her beauty, but she couldn't help but feel as though she were someone else when she was praised for something she had never been interested in before.

She had never worn ornaments before, nor had she ever paid attention to her makeup or clothes.

At most, she remembered to comb her black hair and changed her hairstyle from straight down to a ponytail depending on her mood that day.

For Akane, who was only aware of herself as "normal" to that extent, today was a day full of surprises in many ways.

Many of her schoolmates, even the boys, offered her alcohol and tried to get her drunk.

By the time she realized what was going on, it was too late and she couldn't even stand on her own feet.

She didn't know if she was even drunk, but if it hadn't been for her friend, this day would have been a nightmare.

"Fuu..."

Akane scratched up her frayed black hair and followed the light flying around her with her eyes.

(Let's refrain from drinking in the future.)

As the intoxication subsided, her face, which had been red with discomfort, now turned blue.

At the same time, there was some kind of noise in her head.

It was a strange sensation, as though someone was saying something to her, or if she was just drunk and having an auditory hallucination.

(What is this...)

A light twinkled at the end of her wavering vision.

Akane no longer knew what she was doing or where she was.

If she closed her eyes, she would fall asleep at any moment. Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, enveloped in a kind of weakness different from the fatigue she felt after a kendo match.

The hustle and bustle of the city seemed to be on the other side of the wall, and even the presence of the people walking by was somewhat distant.

――Someone was calling Akane's name.

It was an unfamiliar voice.

(Shut up……)

The voice echoed in the back of her head, and Akane frowned and sighed heavily when her drunken thoughts decided it was a headache.

The smell of alcohol leaked from her lungs, down her throat, and out through her lips, and the smell made her frown again.

As she was about to fall asleep, Akane felt as though she were floating in the air.

Her weight disappeared, her clothes disappeared, and she felt a sense of freedom as though she had lost everything.

(Ah, sleepy...)

"Nmhh... uu..."

――As a matter of fact, Akane was really floating in the air.

But it was not in a local city of Japan where she had been before she closed her eyes, not the crowded alleyways where many people pass by even late at night.

She was drunk and asleep, sitting on the ground, and her figure disappeared without anyone noticing, as though her existence had never existed in the first place...... The next time she appeared, she was in a deep forest.

Akane did not know the place, which was surrounded by trees and wildflowers that had grown as though she was deep in the jungle.

No, it was a place that no ordinary Japanese...... earthling knew.

If one walked a little, there was a ruined old temple there.

It was an old ruin that was said to have been used by the goddess Fasalina. It was the place where the holy sword that the hero of the other world defeated the demon king in Grabalt was stored.

......Not knowing that, Akane kept sleeping. She remained drunk.

She woke up at dawn.

Frowning at the glare of the sun and the hangover for the first time in her life, Akane opened her eyes.

"......Where am I?"

The natural question came out of her mouth.

As she looked around her, she could see that there was a forest, so deep that she could not easily see far.

Next, she looked down at herself, she saw that she was still wearing the same clothes she had worn to the coming-of-age party that she remembered.

A ribbed shirt and ladies' pants that emphasized the lines of her body. The jacket was still intact, and she could find her wallet in her pants.

(Nothing has been stolen.)

The cash was still there, and the cash card was still intact. She didn't remember the amount of cash, but she breathe a sigh of relief that nothing seemed to have been stolen.

Taking out her smartphone from her jacket, Akane first tried to check the time.......

"Are? The battery is dead...?"

(But the battery symbol is green and only...... the screen is dark. Is it broken?)

Akane tapped the LCD screen of the phone several times, and when that didn't fix it, she slammed it down hard on the ground, not caring that it would get dirty with dirt, but the screen still remained dark.

It wasn't so much that the signal wasn't coming through, but that the electronic device was malfunctioning―― Feeling that way, Akane let out a sigh and put her phone in her jacket pocket.

It was broken, but it might have a use.

Above all, smartphones were quite expensive. She didn't want to throw it away easily.

"Uu... my head hurts. Where's this... it's not near the university, right?"

For a moment, the word "kidnapping" popped into the corner of her mind, but even though her name was somewhat well known as a kendo competitor, She didn't see what benefit there would be to kidnap her.

After all, she was outdoors, unrestrained and free to move.

She didn't understand what was the point of leaving her in a place where she could easily escape, Akane decided to check the surroundings for now.

"For the time being, this is..."

She mended a randomly found tree branch and used it as a weapon for the time being.

A less bent tree branch was similar in shape to a wooden sword.

(In the old days, I picked up a tree branch like this and said, "It's a legendary sword.")

The fact that she somehow remembered the past might have been a self-protection measure to avoid feeling uneasy about the current situation.

With that in mind, Akane decided to walk for now.

Since she didn't have the skill to determine the direction from the position of the sun, she followed her intuition and found a building in less than ten minutes.

It was an old stone building that looked like something one would see in a movie or a picture―― a temple.

There was no sign of people, and ivy crawled up the beams and even the outer walls of the temple, as though it hadn't been used for a long time.

"Really...... where am I..."

Unconsciously, Akane muttered to herself.

It was not a wooden building or a shrine. The building was so foreign to Japan that it made her feel as though she were in a foreign country.

Akane hurriedly explored the area around the temple.

The temple was quite large, and it took more than a dozen minutes just to go around it.

She walked around...... looking for anyone, any landmarks, or anything that could identify the place, but as far as Akane could tell, she couldn't find anything that could identify where she was.

"What is this..."

Akane moved quickly to the front of the temple, shouting in frustration at her inability to understand the situation.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead.

(It's hot... isn't this Japan?)

The Japan Akane knew was in the late winter season, when spring had not yet arrived. The air was still cold even in the daytime, and she would have needed a winter jacket, but the temperature this day was quite high.

The heat was trapped inside her down jacket she was wearing, and she couldn't stop sweating.

Akane took off the jacket and held it in the opposite hand from the one holding the tree branch.

Looking inside the building, she saw the path leading to the basement.

(...This is, indeed...)

It was not the light seen in civilization―― a torch?

There was a faint glimmer of light at the end of the path, but even so, it took courage for Akane, a modern person, to enter the dark temple.

Even though she had been practicing kendo since she was a child, it was only used for people.

If she didn't know what was going on, she couldn't use it.

In the end, Akane couldn't go deeper into the temple, and she couldn't go deeper into the forest where she didn't know how big it was, so she was stuck there.

For the time being, she sat down on the stairs leading to the entrance of the temple and checked the situation to save her energy.

"It was...... yesterday, right? I don't remember anything at all from the drinking party at the coming-of-age ceremony......"

She attended the coming-of-age ceremony, went to a drinking party, drank some alcohol that the guys offered her that she couldn't refuse, and...... had no memory of anything from that point on.

She thought she might have been violated, but there was no pain in her body and her clothes were intact.

The contents of her wallet were safe, so she didn't feel like she had been robbed. In the end, she had no idea what was going on, so she roughly ruffled her hair.

"......I don't understand."

Her lustrous black hair was in disarray, and when she took her hands away, gravity pulled her shoulder-length semi-long hair down to her cheeks.

She brushed it off with her hand and felt her stomach growl.

"Uu."

As she remembered correctly, she hadn't eaten anything since last night, and she thought she drank too much and didn't eat much.

However, she was in the middle of the forest, and she didn't even know where she was.

Of course, there was no way she could find any food falling in the sky.

"......What am I supposed to do, damn it?"

A whimper escaped her lips, which wasn't like her normal self, but it couldn't be helped.

Rather, she was surprised that she had the mental strength to not cry out and act out in this situation, but that didn't make the situation any better.

She sat on the stone stairs leading to the entrance of the temple for a while, resting her body, but then she realized that it would not make things better and stood up.

"I need to find some food first...... I don't know where am I, but can I eat nuts or something?"

Saying those words over and over again, Akane began to look for nuts in a position where she could see the temple to avoid getting lost.

There were other mushrooms and several kinds of weeds growing in the forest, but Akane didn't have the knowledge to distinguish whether they were edible or poisonous, so she decided to just look for nuts.

Some of the nuts were poisonous, but couldn't eat anything else if she thought that―― she was just relying on luck.

However, her fears were unfounded.

Whether it was luck or bad luck...... just after Akane stepped into the forest, she heard a human voice in the distance.

It was a high-pitched scream.

"Uu..."

She choked out, grasping a wooden stick which was a broken branch that was only meant for self-defense.

The main reason why she wasn't sure if she should go help or not was because the voice came from deep in the forest.

The position of the sun was slightly tilted in the middle of the sky.

It would be a few more hours before the sun set, but the darkness of the forest in front of her was dim even in the daytime.

Even Akane, who had never stayed in the forest before, could predict that in the evening, her vision would be almost completely dark.

――Darkness made people feel uneasy. It reminded them of fear.

It was natural for Akane, who was only an ordinary human being even though she had trained in kendo, to feel fear of the unknown, of the darkness where there was no room for civilization, but the mental strength she had developed over the past twenty years quickly overcame that fear.

"...Okay."

Holding a tree branch with her left hand as though she were holding a bamboo sword, Akane placed her down jacket on the ground and began to move quickly towards the direction of the scream in the forest.

She had very little experience in moving through the forest, she couldn't run well, and she couldn't hide the sound of her footsteps.

The sound of stepping on twigs and weeds echoed in the darkness of the forest, but her breathing remained steady, which was quite impressive.

"…………What's this."

Akane felt that the place where the voice came from was much closer than she had expected.

In fact, it was a considerable distance since she had gone through the forest for about ten minutes, but Akane, who had been working out on a regular basis, hardly lost her breath.

She didn't feel any fatigue when she run through the forest for the first time, but Akane was so bewildered by the scene in front of her that she could not feel it.

(What is that...)

As soon as Akane spotted the owner of the voice, she forgot about helping the owner and immediately hid at the grass beside her to see what was going on.

She couldn't hide much of her body, but she thought it couldn't be helped because she was an amateur.

......In Akane's line of sight, a woman was being attacked by a translucent human-shaped.

"No, nooo!?"

"――――"

The translucent creature was not speaking. It was doubtful that it had the ability to speak.

It had arms and legs, but its entire body was as small as a child's, and it appeared to be using all of its limbs and its petite body to hug and push down on the woman.

Akane didn't know it, but it was a famous monster in this world...... goblins.

The woman, on the other hand, was screaming so loudly and desperately flailing her body.

(Ears, tails? What's this? What is that!?)

For a moment, she thought it was cosplay, but the ears growing out of the woman's head didn't have joints, and the tail was swaying from side to side in response to her emotions.

It was too elaborate to be a fake, and she couldn't recognize what was going on in front of her.

Above all, the emotions of the woman who was flailing in disgust felt so real that she didn't sense that it was a performance―― a fake.

The confusion in her thoughts deepened.

Should she help her or wait and see?

Akane couldn't make a decision and couldn't move from the spot.

While she was doing so, the translucent human-goblin-shaped slime roughly grabbed the wolf-eared beastwoman by the chest and tore off her tunic with force.

The woman's screams rose a notch higher as her bare breasts, not wrapped in underwear, were exposed.

"Noooo!? someone, someone, help me!?"

(No way!? Are you really going to assault her!?)

It was then that Akane began to understand, albeit vaguely, what the goblin slime was trying to do.

Attack...... rape her. A woman with ears and tail like an animal.

Moreover.

(Is this real? Isn't it fake?)

It was not CGI, computer generated imagery. In front of Akane's eyes, an unusual translucent creature was attacking the woman.

It was not a fake, it was real.

There was no point, and Akane looked around.

She unconsciously thought that a camera or some third party was capturing the situation on film.

But of course, there was no such thing.

(Someone... Isn't there anyone?)

The translucent creature continued to tear at the woman's clothes, right in front of Akane's eyes.

The tunic, the leather breastplate, corset, and the skirt.

The translucent creature's movements became more and more violent as the healthy tanned skin was exposed, as though it was excited by it.

The torn clothes flew into shreds and were thrown away, spreading the wreckage on the surrounding ground.

The act of completely ignoring the woman's resistance continued until her pubic area was completely exposed.

Her round, swollen, moderately sized breasts and her lower body, which was only covered by her underwear. Her pure white panties, with their cute little bow, had turned gray with the liquid that leaked out due to fear, and her flailing legs were shaking with fear, unable to move.

Still, as a last stand, the woman cried out and pierced the translucent creature's chest with her claws.

(E-ehhh!?)

The fingertips in her hand pierced the goblin slime's chest like a spear, and the tip of her wrist pierced through its back.

It seemed to Akane that she had just killed a man, but the goblin slime did not die unless its core was destroyed, and it resumed to violate the woman.

Rather, it was lucky for the slime that the woman's resistance was reduced because her right arm was bound inside its body.

"Hii――"

The woman let out a twitching voice.

Although Akane couldn't see it, the mucus rubbed and stroked her skin from her wrist to elbow ...... as her arms were restrained inside the goblin's body, and the stimulation made her squeal in disgust as though she were being licked and sucked by countless tongues and lips.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she tried to penetrate the goblin's chest once more with her other hand, but before she could, the goblin's left hand grabbed her wrist and pushed her to the ground.

While doing so, the goblin's small hand was placed on her exposed breast and began to rub the moderately sized fatty mass, and the sobs that escaped from the woman's mouth grew louder in proportion.

For Akane, who only knew about sexual intercourse, it was an astonishing act that grabbed her heart.

(No way―― chest, getting rubbed...? E-eh?)

Naturally, that didn't stop the slime goblin's hand from moving.

It rubbed her breasts for a while as though checking their softness, but then its movements changed to a slower one, stroking her skin as it checked the shape of her breasts, coming close to the nipples and areola just barely touching them, and then moving away from them with a flicker.

Her mucus-soaked skin felt the breeze coldly, and even though she hated it to the point she would shed tears, her nipples gradually started to become erect despite her will.

At the same time, Akane could see through her silver-rimmed glasses that her skin was slowly starting to redden.

(Is she... feeling it?)

It was a natural reaction from a third party, but still, the woman's expression was dark with disgust.

Unbeknownst to Akane...... the goblin spawned from the humanoid was composed entirely of the liquid that formed its form, created by the scientist Kara, a modified aphrodisiac.

It sensitizes the skin to which it was applied, and if it penetrated through the pores, the body would be forced to enter an estrus state. Moreover, the effect would not fully recover over time, but only slightly weakened the sensation.

In fact, Kara, who was the first to be experimented on with the aphrodisiac, and Meltia, who was subjected to the modified aphrodisiac, were still suffering from the throbbing sensation a year later, and regularly take antidotes to suppress the throbbing.

――The woman whose skin was smeared with the aphrodisiac gradually lost her breathing in front of Akane's eyes, and her resistance gradually weakened as her eyes moistened.

The strength from her restrained arms weakened, her rampant legs stopped moving, and her entire body jerked and twitched in small spasms just by rubbing her chest...... When the change was visible, Akane blushed and covered her mouth with her right hand.

She felt like she was doing something incredibly wrong, and she was aware that her heart was beating fast.

"No, what is this... No―― no."

The woman may also have noticed the change in her.

She stared at the goblin with strength in her reddened face and moist eyes, and once again her entire body flailed in an attempt to escape.

However, her movements were much weaker than before.

The only result was the swaying of her breasts as they were freed from the restraints of her clothes, and her pathetic appearance was emphasized by the remnants of her clothes and simple white panties.

Her well-shaped breasts, drenched in mucus, quivered in response to the woman's resistance, and her nipples, erect against her will, cast obscene shadows in the dimly lit forest.

After a while, the goblin's hand resumed its movements. The movements became more like it was enjoying the softness of the woman's body regardless of how much she flailed.

This time, it moved not only to her breasts but also to her neck and abdomen, making her upper body covered in mucus.

In less than a few minutes, all of her pure white skin, which was still tanned from her underwear, was covered in mucus, and Akane could clearly see the obscene sight...... and the beautiful light pink nipples in the center of her white skin becoming erect by themselves.

"Nooo!? Someone, someoneee!?"

(I-isn't this a fake!?)

For a moment, Akane thought it was "filming a video" like that, but she couldn't hold back any longer.

She jumped out of the grass, held a wooden stick up to her eyes, and pointed the tip at the goblin-shaped slime.

"Stop it!"

Her voice was surprisingly shaky even to herself.

It was really a monster that didn't exist in reality. A translucent goblin.

It would be more appropriate to say that it was an alien or something like that.

It looked like a goblin. However, like the humanoid, it had only the same shape, but it had no expression.

The expressionless, flat face looked at Akane.

It was enough to make Akane unconsciously take a few steps back, and the tip of the wooden stick she held up to her eyes shook slightly. As a swordswoman, Akane was upset that her emotional turmoil had manifested.

She took a deep breath to suppress her agitation.

"...Let go of that person, fast!"

Next, she shouted with all the strength she could muster in the pit of her stomach.

The sound of her voice tore through the darkness of the forest, and as though in response to her voice, a loud wind blew.

The translucent goblin let go of its prey in front of it and turned its hostility toward Akane.

Akane felt the goblin's hostility and became rather upset as she tried to help her.

"W-what?"

She hadn't expected such hostility towards her alone.

The woman who it was attacking and the woman who intervened.

Normally, it would be aware of both of them and its hostility would be on the two of them, but somehow, the moment it saw Akane, the slime goblin's attention turned only to her.

Of course, it was an action to save the woman being attacked in front of her, but she hadn't expected the goblin to ignore the woman and look at her.

Already, the goblin had Akane in its sights―― well, not her face, but it appeared to be preparing for battle.

Feeling that, Akane glanced briefly at the woman who had been attacked.

"Run away, quick!"

"Y-yes."

The beastwoman replied and tried to run deeper into the forest, but perhaps the fear she had felt earlier was still lingering in her mind, she fell down after a few steps.

In the instant that Akane was dismayed by that, the goblin-type slime jumped on Akane with a speed that was not typical for a slime.

It kicked the ground with two feet, jumped, and closed the distance by several steps in a single jump.

"!!"

However, Akane's reaction was also quick.

Even though she was trained in kendo, it was the fastest move she had ever made in her life, and she swung the wooden stick to the side, knocking away the goblin that had leaped at her.

The body, which was essentially liquid but had a certain elasticity to keep its shape, could not take the impact of the wooden stick and blow off to the side.

As it was, it was slammed into one of the trees in the forest, but since it was originally liquid, the impact did little damage.

It stood up as though nothing had happened, and once again slumped down menacingly toward Akane, spreading its arms wide to the left and right.

It was a natural threatening move of goblins who try to make themselves look as big as possible, but Akane, who was not familiar with the existence of goblins, was reminded of a small animal threatening a human.

However, it was not a cute little animal, but an unknown life form that attacked humans.

Without feeling the slightest bit of cuteness, she held the wooden stick at her eye level with renewed vigilance.

"Kyaaa!?"

However, as she tried to focus on the goblin in front of her, another twitching scream echoed through the darkness of the forest.

As she looked at the goblin, she turned her attention sideways at the woman and saw that this time a translucent dog...... a wolf was blocking her path of retreat to prevent her from escaping.

"Kuh."

(The second one!? And it's another strange one...)

It was no ordinary wolf.

Akane immediately realized that and bit her lip.

(There is no escape...)

For Akane, who was not accustomed to walking in the forest, the small goblin in front of her was troublesome, but the wolf that appeared next was her worst enemy.

Knowing that humans were far behind the four-legged animals in terms of speed and instantaneous power, she quickly realized that she could not escape the wolf.

There was no choice but to defeat them.

With that thought in mind, her stomach relaxed and she calmed her breathing as she was in her regular stance.

"Fuu..."

(Don't worry. I'll be able to handle it――)

It was unfounded confidence, but Akane was strangely calm in the situation.

She put all her energy into the toes in her boots and stepped on the ground.

Lowering her left foot only half a step, she forgot her tension and let her entire body relax. Akane's breathing turned slow, long, and calm as she felt as though her muscles have turned to liquid under her skin――.

(I can do it...)

Akane noticed that her vision was strangely wide.

She could clearly see the movements of both the translucent goblin and the wolf. It seemed to be a sign that she was calm, but there was more to it than that.

In the silence, as though she had stopped breathing and even her heart had stopped beating, Akane's hand on the tree branch, even her fingertips, relaxed.

――The first to move was the wolf.

The wolf-shaped slime made the most of its four-legged mobility and tried to attack from a low position and Akane's blind spot.

It was behind her.

It was behind Akane, out of her sight and reach, but she reacted.

She turned her body using her left leg and swung the wooden stick casually. She was not aiming at the wolf, her gaze was on the goblin in front of her, but the edge of the wooden stick struck the wolf's neck hard.

Like the goblin before, the wolf, which had a certain amount of elasticity to keep its shape, was unable to take the blow from the wooden stick and rolled on the ground, trying to open up a distance from the attack out of caution.

Akane diverted herself from the goblin, which continued to act menacingly and kicked the ground in pursuit of the wolf.

Although four-legged animals excel at rushing and evading to the left and right, they were equal to or inferior to humans when it came to retreat.

Not that Akane understood it, but her intuition told her so.

Her step, stretching her pants to their fullest, far surpassed the speed at which the wolf tried to retreat, and a simple wooden stick easily chopped off the head of the mucus monster that seemed to have lost its defenses.

The wolf's head flew through the air just long enough for the goblin to pick up a fist-sized stone at its feet.

The speed of her step and the swing of her arm were impossible to do, no matter how much she had trained in kendo.

At the same time, as her eyes followed the wolf's head, which she had easily severed, she saw a small stone in her field of vision, no bigger than the tip of her index finger.

(That's?)

Immediately, Akane shot down the pebble with the tip of her wooden stick.

Akane felt that although it looked like a stone, it was not very strong, but in fact, the stone was crushed by her slash as well as her earlier step, making the wolf unable to maintain its physical form.

Even she was surprised by the sword technique, which easily knocked down the stone projectiles fired from her blind spot.

The goblin, startled by it, ignored its monster instincts and even its goblin thoughts and tried to flee the scene.

......Akane did not chase the goblin.

(Thank god.)

She was too busy thinking about it right now to breathe a breath of relief―― and the translucent goblin that had escaped through her back was suddenly pierced through the chest by a spear of light that shot out from the darkness of the forest, and disappeared faster than it could fall to the ground.

"Who!?"

"I'm not your enemy."

The one who appeared was a blonde woman holding a leather bag filled with food in her left arm and a splendidly decorated staff in her right hand.

She looked around, made sure there was no sign of monsters, and then slowly walked over to Akane and knelt down beside her.

"You have awakened, hero-sama."

"……Yes?"

Akane, who was still holding the wooden stick, was looking at the woman with a puzzled look at the word "hero".

She never thought she would hear such words in real life, and she never thought they would be directed at her.

That was probably true, too. No one usually used the word "hero".

The woman with the staff called Akane a hero and bowed to her as though it was natural.

(Uwa...)

When Akane saw her face up close, she almost shouted out.

――She was so beautiful that she felt frightened.

Her golden hair flowed as though it had been melted by the sun, and her white holy robe emphasized her radiance.

The ornaments that adorned her body were minimal, but the unadorned clothes made her beauty stand out even more, and she could feel something beyond human knowledge, like a goddess, behind it.

If one lowered their gaze from her beautiful face, one could see her magnificent body wrapped in a white holy robe.

Her breasts were large and swollen, as though they were filled with fruits. They were probably sized G...... or maybe even a little bigger.

It was a magnificent bulge that not many idols on TV could not match, and if one looked down from there, one could see a magnificent neckline and a buttock that bulged out in comparison.

Akane, who had been working out since she was a child, had the kind of good looks that make men on the road look at her, but the woman in front of her now was even more beautiful.

Her beauty was so awe-inspiring that the words "goddess" or "saint" come to mind.

The white holy robe gently enveloped her beautiful body and brought it to life in all its glory.

As the woman walked, her breasts wrapped in her robe and underwear swayed, and Akane felt embarrassed to have been watching its movement, so she took her gaze away.

The ascetic design that enveloped her magnificent body was a kind of nun's clothing that she was not familiar with.

Not caring that her clothes would get dirty, the beautiful woman kneeled down and looked into Akane's face.

"Are you injured, hero-sama?"

"Um, who is this hero?"

"I'm sorry. I've been gathering food since you haven't woken up yet...... It seems that you were able to defeat the slime safely."

"Food? Slime?"

When she heard those words, Akane's stomach growled.

Ah, no. It was not the slime that had whetted her appetite.

Her stomach, which had barely eaten for a whole day, reacted to the word "food".

Holding her stomach, her cheeks stained red in embarrassment and Akane looked around with a wry smile.

"Ah, are you!?... fine?"

Then, remembering the woman who had been attacked by the goblin-type slime just a moment ago, she rushed to her side as she fell to the ground half-naked.

The beastwoman, wearing nothing but her panties and what was left of her clothes, gave Akane and the blonde sister a frightened look and tried to retreat while on her butt, but when she realized they were human, she covered her breasts with her hands and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yeah, eh……?"

But the next strange thing happened quickly.

The beastwoman, who had been looking relieved, lowered her gaze in surprise, and the arms that had been covering her breasts began to rub them, as though ignoring her will.

Her breasts, still covered in slime mucus, glistened with obscene wetness and made sticky sounds that echoed through the forest as her hands moved.

The sound of her wet breasts and hands rubbing against each other reached Akane's ears, and she suddenly looked at the woman who had started masturbating in surprise.

"Wait, what are you――!?"

"No, this is... why? stop..."

The beastwoman seemed to put all her strength into her arms as she whispered in a small voice.

However, her hands didn't stop moving, in fact, they became even more daring as she began to squeeze her own breasts.

She lifted her breasts as though scooping them up from underneath, and as they were freed and tried to return to their original shape with great elasticity, her erect nipples rubbed against the palms of her hands, emitting a stimulus similar to weak electricity that made her arched back.

Her white neck was exposed, and new tears spilled from her eyes, which were wide open in surprise and blinding pleasure at the same time.

Perhaps the woman's rational mind had been loosened by the single stimulus, and her hands began to move more violently.

She squeezed her breasts so hard that they change shape, and her index finger and thumb pinch her areola and nipples to give her new stimulation.

Akane took a few steps backward, unable to understand what had happened as she was shown a serious masturbation session right up close.

Should she stop the woman or run away―― she felt much more terrified of her than the translucent goblin and wolf she had just fought, and at the same time, she couldn't take her eyes off her masturbation in front of her.

She covered her mouth with the hand that was not holding the wooden stick because she wanted to hide her expression of slight excitement in the same way.

"Ahhii!? What's this――!? What's this, amazing――."

The woman was also confused by the intense stimulation that she had never felt before when masturbating on her own, and her expression slackened as she felt as though she were about to climax from her breasts alone.

The aphrodisiac from the slime had gone all over her body, and now she was in a situation where even her fingertips were sensitive.

The mere caressing of her nipples caused the spasms in her entire body to increase, and she unconsciously rubbed her thighs together, seeking new stimulation.

Before she knew it, small gray vertical streaks were appearing on her pure white panties, and she could tell that it was soaking up her love juices just from the stimulation from her breasts.

――Her left hand, which had been rubbing her breasts, moved toward her panties, as though her instincts had told her.

The movement was natural and familiar.

She quickly found her clitoris in her underwear, and her tanned, wheat-colored legs trembled as her fingertips began to knead it.

The more she felt, the more intense her finger movements became, and at the same time, the more worried and confused―― Akane became.

She didn't know what was happening in front of her right now. She didn't understand.

She didn't know why a woman whose name she didn't know suddenly started masturbating in front of her, why she had big ears on her head that reminded her of a dachshund, she didn't understand anything.

All the anxiety and agitation she had been feeling since she woke up came flooding back, making her want to run away from this place right now.

"Calm down, hero Akane―― this is the effect of the poison left by a foolish monster."

"……Eh?"

The one who said that was the golden-haired nun who had just called herself a hero.

However, the atmosphere was different. Even the way she spoke was different from before...... It was as though she was a different person. Akane felt something terrible about the nun standing right next to her and took a step away.

"Don't be afraid―― I'm on your side."

As she said that, the nun pointed the tip of the staff in her right hand at the head of the masturbating woman and quickly chanted something, a small incantation.

The familiar movement circulated the mana overflowing from the body without a hitch, and Akane, standing next to her a few steps away, could not take her eyes off the woman, feeling at the same time fear of the unknown and a sense of divinity that made her dare not look directly at her.

"First, let's purify that poison."

The light that annihilated the goblin-shaped slime flooded the tip of the staff, but it was a different kind of offensive light that enveloped the woman, and she regained her senses as though the madness of what she did earlier had been a lie, and she remembered her own lasciviousness, and this time she turned red and curled herself up, hiding her skin with her hands.

"E-eh!? Why!? I, I――!?"

"Don't be so frightened, child of the beastmen. The poison that deceives women has been purified...... Next, it seems you need an explanation. Hero Akane."

"Eh, ah... umm... why did you know my name?"

The gaze that was directed at her was a different one than before.

She had golden hair that looked as though it had been melted by the sun, good looked that even made her feel fearful, and dark green eyes that shine on her eyes, her white skin, and golden hair.

However, in the depths of her eyes, there was unshakeable tranquility that seemed to swallow up any emotion.

Akane couldn't remove her gaze from those eyes.

Her heart raced and her legs began to tremble unconsciously.

It was the kind of nervousness she felt just before a kendo match that she couldn't afford to lose, but magnified many times.

It resembled a kind of fear, but deep inside, she could feel a certain tenderness.

Her heart was racing as though it was about to break, but it didn't seem to belong to her.

(What is this person... who...?)

Akane unconsciously folded her knees and bowed her head to the blonde nun, the exact opposite of what she had just done.

It was a natural gesture, as though her instincts told her she had to do so.

The blonde nun's expression was expressionless, but with a hint of tenderness, and she placed the tip of her staff on Akane's right shoulder.

"First of all, thank you for answering my call and coming to this world. Thank you, hero Akane...... Akane Shinomiya."

"Umm..."

"My name is Fasalina. I am the creator of this world, and the one who connected this world with the other world you live in―― I am what the inhabitants of this world call a goddess."
