Novel Full Chapter 168 - I'm Not Wearing It!
The south area and the west area are done similarly like in the east. I just helped the hunters take care of the strong monsters. They are happy that only monsters they can defeat are left behind. Now they can get some rewards from the guild.
Wait, I forget about that! How many monsters have I defeated? I should be the one contributed the most in defeating monsters. Should I start counting?
I think that will be useless. No one would believe that I defeated that much monsters. Let's just pretend that I didn't participate at all.
Goodbye, money.
In the west area, I met Oleg again. And somehow he noticed my identity right away. He said thank you for helping them and told me to go somewhere else. Everyone really loves to gain achievements, huh? They just told me to leave once they can handle the monsters.
That's fine, though.
Then the last area is the north gate again. But before going there, I need to check on Kron first. He's still fighting in the city.
As for the wyverns above the sky, I left them be for now. I still can't move freely in the sky. Maybe once I improved my air element to Intermediate, I can finally step on air. That's something to look forward to.
When I see Kron, he's alone fighting a group of monsters. There are many corpses around him. Probably corpses of hunters who tried to escape. Kron doesn't seem to mind them dead.
But he's already exhausted. He keep fighting the monsters inside the city while making sure that no civilians are harmed. He can't see like I can, so he doesn't know if there are civilians around him or not. That's why we he didn't use his full strength.
"Kron! You need to get some rest! Your flying magic will be necessary to fight against those wyverns! Let me handle everything here!"
"Okay! I'll be resting at the hotel now!" Then he flew away to the hotel.
As long as he got enough rest, I don't think the wyverns will be too much trouble for him. And with Shirley and Ms. Wendy as well, they should be able to hold these wyverns when they're going to attack.
Remembering that I hadn't tell them about it, I contacted Sonia mid-battle and told her to relay a message to any flying mages to get some rest. They will have important roles during the fight against wyverns.
And if they have a partner they want to carry in the sky, they can ask their partners to get some rest as well. Then they will be the one flying while carrying the attackers. Of course if they can do it alone, it's fine as well.
I fought the leftovers of Kron's battle. The monsters here are… not worth mentioning. The strongest one is able to endure six slashes of my attack. But it died on the seventh.
Although fighting the enemies head on is not something I usually do, it was still quite easy to do it. With my Divine Vision, just like Victoria told me, I can predict their movements by seeing the miniscule movement of their muscles.
So far, there's no monsters I have to block their attack. All of them are not fast enough to make me block them.
And I don't need to move so much of my body to dodge their attack. Just enough to not let it hit me. Like swaying my upper body, lifting my leg so it won't be hit, and take a step backward.
Maybe I don't need to fight sneakily again? No. those are still necessary. I'm fighting head on since I know that most cult members nearby should be dead already. And no one would inform the cult about my existence.
I guess it means different situation, different fighting style.
In no time at all, I defeated all the monsters that Kron fought. Sorry. I lied about the no time. It took me about one hour. It took a while since some monsters decided to escape when they realized they have no chance to win against me.
They are spread out that I have difficulty to which one I have to chase after first. When I want to chase another monster, it was already escape quite far. And while chasing after the monsters, I encounter another group of monsters fighting the city guards.
So I ended up taking my time defeating all the monsters inside the city. Other than the wyverns that stay in the sky.
I thought that the stampede will be over soon, but no one would have thought that there's still one last wave coming. It's coming from the north.
Worse of all, I feel the ground shaking.
I look around but I still don't see anything that can cause this earthquake. Which means it's either a monsters with earth magic, or a gigantic monsters.
Why did it have to end with such a troublesome monster?
And soon enough, Sonia appears in front of me reporting a monster's approach.
"Roy! A Giant Salamander is approaching from the north!"
"Giant Salamander? Tell me about that monster."
"It's a gigantic fire lizard! The length of that monster should be about fifty meters. It can breathe fire as well."
That sounds like that monsters I encounter in the dungeon. The one where I found Kayla's wand is. But I think this one is bigger than that.
"What about other areas?"
"No other waves are coming. This one should be the last one."
"Alright. Tell the flying group to take care of the wyverns. How many flying groups do we have?" I asked Sonia.
"There should be about five of them. Three groups are people you know well. First is Kron. He's flying and fighting alone. Then next is Wendy and Candy. And the third is Shirley and Angela. Although Angela is the one with the weakest level, she's still considered as a powerhouse during this stampede."
"Good. I'll be going then."
Fighting against that Giant Salamander should be difficult. With my sword, I think it looks like I'm poking a monster with a needles.
Before I left, Victoria stopped me.
"Roy. Fire."
"Yes! It is a fire breathing monster! What about it?!"
"It's with Candy." Victoria continue.
"What is it?!"
"…"
"No! I won't wear it!"
I know what she's thinking about. It's that fishnet stocking that currently on Candy's possession.
"…"
"Never!"
"Stocking…"
"No!"
"Sssstooooockiiiiiingggg…"
"…uuuuuuuaaaaaaaah!!! Fine! But you will be the one to wear it!"
I told Victoria that she will be the one to wear it.
"It won't make difference you know? I'm still your armor after all. And if I wear it, it will still be you who ended up wearing it."
"No! It has a big difference! Especially for my heart! And you can make it so the stocking can't be seen by other, right? You will be the one who wear it!"
Although this is an urgent matter, Sonia is just there laughing. Don't laugh!
"I still think there's no difference, but fine."
"And we don't really need to wear it, right? I can just fold it and put it in my pocket. That should still work."
"Okay, okay. I still think you will look good wearing fishnet stocking." Victoria added.
"Even if that's the case, doesn't mean I will wear it!"
"So you don't deny that you will look good?"
"I accept all kind of compliment you threw toward me. And I will always look good in anything I wear. But there are some things I would never wear."
Sonia who's still laughing disappear suddenly. She must be telling Candy that I'm coming for the stocking.
Candy should be at the hotel now since she's a pair with Ms. Wendy. So I'm going there right away.
As soon as I arrived, Candy already took off the stocking and present it to me. IN FRONT OF EVERYONE!
Kayla, Sophie, Angela, Shirley, Candy, Ms. Wendy, Lina, and even Kron is watching. What is this? A new kind of torture?
"Here's the stocking. You can wear it now. It's still warm." Candy said with her face full of smile.
"Thanks for it still being warm, but I'm not wearing it! Victoria is the one who wears it! And I can just put it in my pocket so it's still effective!"
"It's not, Roy. We tried it before. It doesn't work that way. You have to wear it properly, on your legs." Candy said.
"It's Victoria!"
"Fine, it's Victoria. Just sit over there and we'll put it on for you."
Candy then pushed me back and I fall with my butt on the chair. When did Lina get over here and set the chair?
Then the girls started holding my body so I won't moves too much and Candy and Sophie lifted my legs and started to put the stocking over Victoria's leg armor.
What kind of shame play is this?! And I thought I was shameless…
"Don't worry. The size is adjustable. It will fit you." Sophie said.
Kron and Sonia just watching over there and laugh. At least I should be glad that Hill isn't here.
As soon as the girls finished dressing me with the stocking, I told Victoria to shape shift so she can cover it. There's no way I'm going outside while being seen wearing this.
I quickly left the hotel while everyone is laughing. I need to relieve my shame by killing that Giant Salamander.
