The quest they received in the "Wilderness Town" was "The Extermination of the Lustful Eye Demon."

Shiori and Chika had arrived at the special field, "The Silver Cave of the North," which they had been able to access by accepting the quest.

"This place... Let’s go."

"I wonder what kind of monsters will appear?"

The location was a cave formed at the bottom of a cliff.

There didn’t seem to be any guards around, and the entrance to the cave was wide open. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Therefore, Shiori and Chika stepped into the cave without hesitation.

"Wow... what a beautiful cave."

"Yeah... it’s really sparkly... it’s really beautiful, but I wonder why it’s like this...?"

Inside the cave, the floor, walls, and ceiling all shone with a silvery luster, made of beautiful, mirror-like rock.

The two of them gasped in amazement at the silvery cave that clearly reflected their own images, and began to proceed further inside.

As for the route, it twisted and turned to the right and left at intervals of about ten meters.

There were no forks in the road; it seemed to be a single, straight path.

As they walked along that path, they kept their eyes not only on what was in front of them, but also behind, to the sides, and even above, as if wary of any sudden attacks.

They had only moved forward like that for a little while when a monster immediately appeared before the two of them.

"Squeak, squeak..."

"What is that... an eyeball?"

"You have a rather unsettling appearance..."

Its appearance was like a giant eyeball covered in skin with tiny purple tentacles growing out of it, and a small body attached to it.

It was a small creature, about 30 centimeters tall.

And its name was displayed as "Lesser Eye Lv24".

"Squeak squeak... Squeak, squeak...!"

"Oh, it noticed me."

"What are you doing...?!"

Lesser Eye appeared, looking around nervously, but when it noticed Shiori and Chika, it tensed its body and turned its gaze... its eye... straight at them.

And then, in the next moment... a pink light, like a laser, shot out from the pupil of Lesser Eye’s eyeball and was aimed at Shiori.

Shiori dodged it at the last moment, but the pink light that was released hit the mirror-like wall of the cave and reflected, striking Shiori in the back.

"Ah, ahh!? ♡"

"Big Sister...!? Uh, ’Water Lance’—hyaaah!? ♡"

"Squeak, squeak, squeak...!"

At that moment.

Shiori felt a sweet, pleasurable sensation where it touched her, and she let out a sweet cry and trembled.

Chika was surprised by her sister’s reaction and tried to cast a spell, but she was hit in the chest by the pink light that Lesser Eye continued to emit, causing her to let out a sweet cry and her body to tremble.

"Ahhh... that light... it’s amazing...♡"

"Um, well... it wouldn’t be good if I took too much of it...♡"

"Squeak squeak squeak..."

Back. Chest.

Still struggling with the lingering sweet sensations, Shiori and Chika turned back to "Lesser Eye."

Perhaps sensing their fighting spirit, Lesser Eye stared intently at the two, its eyeball swaying back and forth, and once again emitted a pink light from its pupil.

"Ah...! Ugh...! Leave it to me, Chika...! Ha...!"

"Whoa... uh...! Yes, please, Big Sister...!"

"Kyu!? Kyu, Kyukyu!?"

The two dodged the pink light that was emitted once again... and then dodged the light that hit the wall and reflected off it once more. It seemed that reflections could not occur more than once, as the pink light disappeared after hitting the wall a second time.

The moment she confirmed that, Shiori raised her rapier.

Using her superior agility, she instantly approached Lesser Eye and unleashed a single, decisive blow.

It didn’t seem to have much durability, and with that one hit, ’Lesser Eye’ fell.

"Phew... Even weak monsters have some pretty good abilities... ♡ Let’s be careful ♡"

"Yeah... That’s a sexy ability befitting an eyeball-type monster."

"And this mirror-like silver cave also has incredible synergy with its abilities... I need to be careful, yes ♡"

Seeing that Lesser Eye had fallen, the two breathed a sigh of relief, their cheeks flushed with admiration at how well its abilities matched the setting of this silvery cavern, and they cautioned each other to be careful.

And so, they began moving forward again.

Shiori and Chika proceeded into the cave.

Along the way, Lesser Eyes frequently appeared and engaged them in battle.

"Squeak, squeak!"

"Squeak squeak!"

"Ahhh!? ♡ Mmm, mmm! ♡"

"Hyaaah!? ♡ Mmm... ’Water Lance’! ♡"

Although they dodged the pink light, because the projectiles didn’t reflect straight but bounced randomly off the ceiling and walls, Shiori and Chika often got hit.

As they writhed from the sweet sensation that made their bodies tremble from the spot that was touched, the two launched attacks, taking down the Lesser Eyes one by one.

"Phew, phew...♡... I think we’ve made quite a bit of progress. I wonder if we’ll reach the boss soon..."

"Ahhh, ahh...♡ Yeah... I think it’s about time..."

This time, Shiori got hit in the thigh and Chika got hit in the buttocks.

They fidgeted a little with their lower bodies.

After catching their breath following the defeat of "Lesser Eye," the two began to worry about the boss room.

Then, as if to respond to that interest, a large open space came into view ahead of the two of them.

"Ah... that’s the boss room, isn’t it..."

"Yeah... For now, let’s take a break there, Big Sister."

That was definitely the boss room.

Having made that decision, the two of them, just before the main square, in a spot not visible from the square itself, found a small space where they sat down on a rock of just the right size to cool their overheated bodies.

"Phew..."

"Phew..."

They regulated their breathing and calmed the heat in their bodies.

Once they felt they had calmed down sufficiently, the two stood up and rushed into the square.

"Of course, it has an entourage..."

"Yes, and that is..."

The square was about 40 meters in diameter.

A dome-shaped plaza covered in mirror-like silver walls.

The ones who were there were about ten "Lesser Eyes" as its entourage.

And in the center of the square, there was a single large shadow hanging from the ceiling.

Its eyeball was enormous, appearing to be three meters in diameter.

Unlike the ’Lesser Eye’, its eyeball did not have a body attached to it.

Instead, numerous tentacles of varying thicknesses sprouted from all directions, and it appeared that it was using some of these tentacles to hang from the ceiling, while the other unused tentacles wriggled and swayed.

Each of its numerous tentacles had an eyeball at its tip, and it appeared that these eyeballs could also emit a pink light.

The name displayed was "Lustful Eye Demon Lv30".

"Squeeze, squeeze... Squeeze, squeeze!"

"Squeak, squeak!"

"Squeak squeak squeak!"

"Squeak, squeak squeak!"

Did they confirm that Shiori and Chika had entered the square?

The "Lustful Eye Demon" let out cries from somewhere, raised its numerous wriggling tentacles, and turned their eyes toward them.

Probably each of those eyeballs was equivalent to a ’Lesser Eye’.

No, it definitely emitted a pink light that had an even greater effect.

And if you took that hit, you’d writhe in agony and your movements would become sluggish.

However, stopping movement in a situation with so many enemies present would be tantamount to leaving a fatal vulnerability.

In other words, if you got hit by even one pink light, there was a very high chance you’d lose.

However, in this square surrounded by a mirror-like silver surface, it was difficult to completely avoid them.

In other words, if they continued to challenge it head-on, this meant that the chances of losing were higher.

"Phew... Chika, let’s go... ♡"

"Yes... Let’s go, Big Sister... ♡"

Shiori and Chika were well aware of that.

But because of that, the two of them blushed, thinking about what would happen if they were defeated, and began their challenge against the "Lustful Eye Demon."
