Chapter 129. Lunchtime

While dividing the food to share with Aria-san, we decided to have lunch on the spot.

We handed one of the sandwiches we bought in town to Aria-san, and we split the remaining two.

“This is delicious… It’s delicious… Ugh, you all are my saviors… I could die happy now…”

With tears streaming down her face, Aria-san blissfully savored the sandwich.

As the rescuers, it’s rewarding to see her so happy, but I’d prefer if she didn’t die right after being rescued.

Well, I can’t say we’ve successfully rescued her from this dungeon just yet.

“I’ve cut the sandwiches for all three of us. Here you go, Daichi-kun, ahh~”

Kazane-san skillfully sliced the large sandwich into portions using Kris’s wavy blade. She then brought one piece close to my mouth.

“Here? Right here?”

I mean, Aria-san is watching us, isn’t she?

“Right here. Come on, don’t hesitate. Just say ‘ahhh’.”

“Ah, okay. Ah, ahh~ munch munch…”

“Hehe, how is it? Delicious?”

“I-it’s delicious.”

I was obedient to Kazane-san.

It’s not something I usually do, but why am I acting like this?

I noticed that Kazaane-san was giving a triumphant look to Aria-san.

On the other hand, Aria-san was shaking her head from side to side while munching on her sandwich.

What, is she trying to threaten her?

Like saying, “This guy is mine, don’t mess with him”?

“Um, senpai. There’s sauce on your cheek. I’ll get it for you. Lick~”

“Huh?!?”

This time, Yuzuki made a strange move.

She licked the sauce off my cheek with her tongue.

.

Eh…? Eh…?

“What the… Yuzuki, what the hell are you doing!?”

“Well, it seems I got the reaction I expected. It feels like I’ve seen my cute senpai for the first time.”

“That’s the reaction… Obviously! It’s one thing if it were Kazane-san, but you!?”

Isn’t that something you’d do with your significant other?

Lately, Yuzuki’s sense of boundaries has been off.

But this is way over the line.

Even siblings wouldn’t do this.

Or do they?

When I cautiously looked at Yuzuki, she was trying to appear nonchalant, but her face was completely red. Her ears, too.

If it’s so embarrassing, then don’t do it! Why did you do that?

Meanwhile, when I glanced at Kazane-san again, she was smiling as if she had accomplished something, completely different from the look she gave Aria-san.

Why??? Is Yuzuki okay?

Is it fine because she’s the little sister type?

I’m in utter confusion.

By the way, Aria-san seemed to have sensed something and distanced herself slightly from us.

Of course, she must be exasperated.

Also, this is not something you do in front of people you just met.

It’s weird.

So, amid this incomprehensible exchange, we finished our meal.

We drank tea and took a relaxing break.

As for how we brewed the tea, in addition to the teapot and tea leaves we bought in town, we used two special tools.

One is the magical water bottle we received as a bonus from the elf village, which can create water.

It’s a warrior-exclusive tool, and by consuming 1 MP, it produces a bottle of drinking water, making it quite handy.

The other one is the heating stone we received as thanks from the dwarf village.

It’s a fist-sized magic stone, also warrior-exclusive. By consuming 1 MP, it heats up to an extremely high temperature.

If I pour the water from the bottle into a pot and throw in this stone, I’ll have boiling water in no time, within 5 minutes or so.

Using those tools, we could quickly create boiling water and brew tea, which became our current environment.

It’s a simple thing, but it feels like we received something quite valuable.

Indeed, kindness is not in vain.

Maybe this is what they mean.

Or is it something else?

Having refreshed ourselves, we ended our break and continued our journey.

Aria-san had fully recovered and was now in a condition to continue.

“By the way, Aria-san, when the food ran out, were you okay with water?”

“Oh, I’m fine with that. I can use water attribute magic. With the spell [Create Water]. I can produce water myself.”

Oh, so she’s a water attribute magic user.

Unintentionally, it turned out that we have adventurers with all 4 attributes in this place.

Chatting like that, we left the room and continued down the passage. Soon, we reached a door.

It was a straight path, so there was no route other than beyond this door.

“Monsters are waiting on the other side of this door.”

Drawing a slim sword from her waist, Aria-san fixed her sharp gaze on the door.

Despite the slightly clumsy atmosphere earlier, she now emanates the aura of a seasoned adventurer.

“What’s the distance between us and the monsters? Can we hit them with attack magic?”

“Yes. Beyond this door, it’s a room similar to the one we saw earlier, but not as spacious. If you cast area magic, there will be almost no escape for them.”

“Got it. In that case, Yuzuki, you go for it.”

“Sure thing, senpai. Leave it to me~ I’ll wipe them out in one go. Oh, but the Flame Skulls might remain.”

“No problem. Kazane-san, I’ll also need your help.”

“Leave it to me. It’s been a while since I played with Hotaru-chan.”

“In a way, we’re always playing together. Against you, senpai.”

“Uhm, what should I do…?”

Aria-san asked with a slightly troubled expression. After thinking for a moment, I replied.

“We should be able to handle it ourselves, so if you could watch over us, that would be great. If something happens, please be flexible and help us.”

“I-I see… I understand.”

She didn’t seem entirely convinced, but she agreed for now.

After confirming that, I looked at Kazane-san and Yuzuki, and we nodded at each other.

“All right, let’s begin the battle.”

At my command, Kazane-san and Yuzuki released green and red shine to activate their magic.

Confirming that it reached the critical point, I opened the door.

As Aria-san had said, there was a room on the other side of the door.

It was about five meters square.

At the far end of the room were four monsters, 2 Gargoyles, and 2 Flame Skulls.

Perhaps sensing the door had opened, Gargoyles spread their wings and took flight, while the Flame Skulls began emitting red shine. But their movements were too slow.

“Kazane-san! Yumizuki!”

“Leave it to us! Slice through everything with [Wind Storm]!”

“It’s been a while since I went all out! Flame, incinerate everything with [Explosion]!”

For the first time since arriving in this different world, we unleashed a deadly area magic combo. The scorching explosion and the storm of wind blades engulfed the four monsters, causing them to explode.
