The level has been increased!
[Lv. 34]
Looking from outside, Kyoya has a lot of ways to raise his power. He just adds points to his abilities, but those also grow naturally, so his growth is way stronger and faster compared to others. The growth is controlled by the system, however, Kyoya's power is different compared to other adventurers.
It's even different compared to other summoned people.
All because Xaya is from the heavenly realm.
"Hmm... A normal arrow, it is..."
It didn't seem like another kind of an arrow will join the arsenal, so Kyoya just put his stats into normal arrow skill, then added all points into his body growth. In a mere second, Kyoya became so strong that Anoke trembled.
His instincts could tell that this man is approaching his 'body strength' already!
"It should be better to add points into normal arrows as I even use those during Arrow Five."
"Yes, husband~~ What are we going to do? The rabbits aren't running at all!"
"Before rabbits..."
Kyoya turned his attention to the women caught up by the goblins.
Their treatment was so severe that Kyoya couldn't even look at them! The whole meaning of this underground was to tame white rabbits, then enjoy some 'snacks' which were those pitiful women... Their bodies were sitting on the cold ground and even a mere pebble could hurt their naked skin.
It was a sight that surely would affect normal people.
The eyes of Xaya slightly narrowed, then her body flew behind Kyoya who was moving forward to the ladies. He took out the stolen stuff from the adventurers, then passed it to them along the robes to cover their bodies.
All of this was stolen from the adventurers.
A system didn't even give its help for Kyoya! The creation system should create clothes, and even a simple medicine from this world as Kyoya had already seen and used a little of 'another world' medicines.
However, Xaya was not liking this at all.
"Can you wait here? I must get rid of the white rabbits, then we will get outside soon."
"Yes, of course... Thank you..."
"Thank you..."
"You are our... only hope..."
There was a hint of satisfaction and pride welling up within Kyoya's heart.
He felt like this is what should be done right now, and the expressions of the ladies were the reason for him to be ascertained. Just their eyes liting up in hope were enough to put him in contentment, then his bow let out its arrows.
The normal arrows were already the deadly weapons for the white rabbits.
[-700 HP!]
After Kyoya's level up, even more.
Not only he could feel his instincts stronger, but Kyoya also had that strong power to tell the 'critical' spots on the white rabbits' bodies. A normal arrow could nearly kill them, so the critical strike was a one-shot.
The massacre of white rabbits lasted around fifteen minutes, then Kyoya got around eighty eyes which is still not enough to complete the quest.
"Husband... Why are we leaving? I can smell the white rabbits further down the cave... There has to be more goblin, so husband's growth should continue."
"But if we continue to fight, then more goblins might get notified... It might put the caught up ladies in the life-threatening situation."
"Husband..."
Kyoya was ready to help the victims of the goblins, but his body got frozen on the spot a few seconds later. His resolution to save the women was something Xaya couldn't even approve of! Her husband is just wasting time at this point.
And the fact that he looks at other women annoyed her to the core.
"Husband just should focus on our adventure... At our honeymoon..."
"Xaya... If we can help-"
"Husband..."
At this point, Kyoya could no longer speak.
The pressure coming from Xaya's body was just too immense. She hugged him from behind, then her fingers kept running around his chest while she squeezed her own against his back. Her adorable face was resting on his back yet Kyoya felt his heart beating faster and faster.
There was some fear mixing up with the pleasure coming from Xaya's close contact.
The lady's hands already slipped through Kyoya's clothes, then her nails cut that manly skin slightly... A little blood began gathering upon it, then Xaya finally continued after setting up all her dominance.
"A death is not something you can escape by relying on others..."
This very dominance was something that Kyoya wanted to get rid of.
The disparity in the strength was bound to cause such an incident. This relationship is cute and nice, but only when they are alone... If they go outside and meet other people, then Xaya changes to the point where she just wants to get rid of everyone.
So that their alone time can be extended.
It's not a healthy relationship at this point as Kyoya barely can say anything back. He can not even tell his reason for saving those women and express his wish to help if possible. It's not like he would go to the extreme to help them, but if it's possible, then why not?
His bow can also take down people from afar.
"Look only at me and kill the filth."
"..."
"Husband promised me to get rid of the filth... Why are they not dying from your arrows, husband?"
Xaya was already kissing Kyoya's neck. It was tickling and good, but slightly below, her nails were still cutting and sliding on his chest... It's not like Kyoya is a masochist, but he couldn't distinguish the pain from pleasure anymore.
Even after Xaya bit him, Kyoya was thinking that he is being kissed her.
She sucked his blood, then forced him to answer by adding the pain which couldn't be mistaken.
"Ugh... They are not... filth... Just women who want to live... My arrows... had helped them, now we have to go outside and... And..."
"And?"
There was no way for Kyoya to answer.
He just realized that saving people is not as easy as he thinks it is... There was a nice feeling of saving them from the monsters, but the future might be even worse for them. The strong camps are taken by the people from higher floors, then the chaos is nonstop going around.
It would be strange for monsters to enter this place even now.
There was no way for the women with cheap medicine and robes to survive without constant support.
This constant support would make Xaya mad to the point where she would kill them with her power. Then, it would also make Kyoya work his fingers to the bone... There would be no way to rest and enemies of theirs wouldn't be the white rabbits needed for the quest.
So many hurdles for what?
Satisfaction? Gratification?
The train of thoughts surely got influenced by Xaya's bloody kisses and the overall situation of the victims... Kyoya was full of thoughts, then he realized that his growth together with his wife was the best.
Her smile when she asks for a new item or skill.
Her smile when she performs her new abilities to help him.
Then his growth that comes from their system and hard work...
"Husband?"
As Kyoya turned his eyes to Xaya, he stopped thinking and just hovered his eyes on her lips. Those were glittering so much it was impossible to overlook them. There was a lot of blood around her lips too, so the whole picture was not that normal yet Kyoya just laughed.
"Do you want to kill me by blood loss?"
"Mmm."
Xaya just shook her head gently, then her husband did exactly what she wanted him to do. He just glanced at the ladies, passed them some cheaps weapons from the adventurers, then left the cave followed by the purple goblin which was their tank.
"You can only rely on yourselves now."
"Lucky filth, begone."
"..."
Both of them found a thick tree, then summoning their house, Kyoya and Xaya went inside to rest after the battle. It was the rest where Kyoya could move his hands freely yet the house was so small that it would be better to just lie down with the wife atop.
"Husband! We should try to eat Wagyu at our house! I will feed you with my mouth!"
"No, no, no. We are eating normally."
"I will smear the blood with my lips then!"
"This... is fine, I guess?"
"Hehe~~"
While Xaya thrashed atop him with the contentment way bigger than the 'heroic one', Kyoya just locked his eyes on her hair, then contemplated.
Being a hero is not possible for him, then if he enjoyed a mere 'satisfaction' from helping others with his bow, it would make him a fake hero for sure. It's not like he won't help if possible, but going further is no good.
'It means I am a fake hero.'
"Husband... I told you it's no good to keep it up for yourself."
"We... need a bigger house."
"Hmm..."
A bigger house is needed to enjoy life in another world. But Kyoya didn't give up on his wish to teach his wife a common sense... He was also thinking about the way, but the situation just goes out of his control each time they meet some people...
A lot of thinking is needed, but in the midst of those, Kyoya was also thinking about the victims of the goblins he had saved.
Those ladies did their best to reach the safety camp.
Kyoya was sure of it.
There was no way for him to know what happened next, however. It was the pitiful ending, but they had met other adventurers. They were humans yet when they saw the ladies being clothes in mere robes without any other clothes, then the human adventurers...
Turned into monsters themselves.
