I didn't take long and pressed the accept button—the moment after that, a huge change occurred to the strange interface that showed in my eyes.
A [Guild] and [Social] Tab appeared! How handy, the guild tab showed the current members and who was online, although it only showed their basic location for me and the girls we were in [Gold Dungeon - 3rd Floor]
Oh? The other person's name is Mimi, and she seems to be on the 12th Floor of the Silver Dungeon.
"Thanks for the invite." I made sure to thank them, it was polite to do so, then looked at the [Social] tab, which showed my party list and friends with the two girls listed, there was a small help tab that I read, and now, if I wanted, I could contact the girls and speak telepathically!
Amazing.
[So simple...]
{But adorable}
"Phew~ don't worry about it. Shall we share the loot?" Flora asked with a chirp.
Her eyes shone joyfully—I smiled and saw the small popup of a little lute with a dice and cross icon before pressing the cross and not rolling for the lute.
Lumia also denied the roll, and a little sound played with the information that Flora rolled a 2 for the lute, which would be tragic if there were any thieves at the party!
"Let's share the gold with 100 to Rai and 50 to Lumia and me," Flora added before she quickly acted—she looked at me with a gentle smile before winking.
"Me and Flora are from wealthy families, and due to having a stronger connection to our world, we can buy the currency of the dungeon outside too."
I didn't act like a hypocrite. The amount of money I needed was too great to act humble, so with the most honest smile possible, "Thanks, right now I need this more than any weapons or armour."
"Haha... well, I noticed you have the talent for greatswords and big swords but don't use them. You can take that too. Honestly, without you, our contribution wouldn't have even gotten the lute." Flora said, her little fingers twanging the strings of her new lute.
It became smaller, seeming to scale to her race with a black wooden coat, a pretty red flower pained down the bridge, and a cute rat dancing on the body.
My eyes were glued to Flora.
Her dance slowly escalated as she plucked an upbeat but rustic tune, her lips pressed together as she hummed with a beautiful tone, a swirl of beautiful green and blue notes dancing around her body...
"So beautiful..."
A moment later, I felt my entire body recover lost energy and somehow felt stronger... Like I could fight 100 battles!
Lumia tapped my shoulder as Flora's dance continued as she whispered in my ear, the warmth of her breath tickling my neck.
"This is all we can give you as a welcoming gift—the song she's singing is a long buff that will increase all your attributes and luck for 24 hours."
"It's one she can only do once a day~ Fufu—it seems the princess likes you more than she acts."
Since she was close, I replied with a slightly cheeky question, "Then what about the lovely noble elf? Have I gained some of her affection?"
Flora's dance became more animated as hundreds of tiny rats danced at her feet, but they were cute, like mice with fluffy white fur hopping on two feet.
The moment she turned to face the other way, I felt the soft lips of the elven noble once again—this time, she kissed my lips...
Her warm breath blew against my face, the sticky wet feeling of her tongue swirling around in my mouth as if to savour my flavour, and our noses squished together as her beautiful blue eyes stared at me with a cheeky glint.
Lumia pulled away from me with a wet sound, her pink lips sucking the remnants of our mixed saliva into her mouth with a devilish grin.
"This noble lady might seek your company many times in the future; it's a shame I can't let you reach into my underwear like Flora as we lack the time~ Fufu."
This girl wasn't sleeping!
With a laugh, Lumia skipped away from me, her body dancing around Flora as a bleeping started to sound the song began to fade as the small princess looked at me with her red eyes filled with a slight sorrow.
Then she spoke, her sharp tiger teeth forming a smile, "Rai! We must go, so you better get strong and help us later! Haha, next time, I'll return the favour!" She showed two fingers and made a vulgar gesture before laughing while Lumia dragged her into the exit portal.
The latter blew him a kiss before gesturing for a blowjob, mouthing, "In private next time."
I was a little shocked at how loose the women in the dungeon were, but then I remembered what Eternia said, their worlds are at risk, and they are always a moment from death in the dungeon itself... wouldn't that cause them to feel alive and in the moment?
So I stopped judging them and smiled while checking what share of the loot I got ready to enter the next Floor before going home to meet Aki...
A worrying night was awaiting me.
Swoosh!
My hand swiped to the right, pulling the entire interface before my eyes to the green [Safe Zone], causing me to relax as I sat against the wooden wall, still feeling my heart racing at tonight's meeting and battle.
"Let's see, battle... victory....contribution... Ah, here!" I found the loot panel from the backlog. Hearing the mechanical Eternia voice was amusing, but that's my secret.
[Rewards]
⟪Rai Gained [Rat Fur] x 100⟫
⟪Rai Gained [Gold] x 100⟫
⟪Rai Gained [Iron Greatsword] x 100⟫
"Hmmm...? Why did I get almost all of the loot!?" It was confusing, but there was a small tab with "Donated Loot", so I pressed the air, my finger sinking into the soft button.
⟪Lumia Traded [Rat Fur] x 31 ⟫ "My cute Werewolf~ since you need money, let big sis look after you~ <3."
⟪Flora Traded [Rat Fur] x 38⟫ "We couldn't have done it without you... Call me for a duo party next time... I'll blow your world~ It was really fun! Please protect me, Wolf Knight!"
[Well, it seems those girls are into you... Are you happy?]
Eternia didn't sound jealous but like a mother who set her son up for an arranged date... Somehow I felt like she tampered with my dungeon exploration to make this meeting possible, as their names stated they were on the 10th Floor...
"Thank you, Eternia."
[Why are you being so serious all of a sudden....]
{Taking all the credit... I am the one that helped open...}
[Shhh!!]
"Thanks, both of you—meeting two friends like them made me feel a little different."
{Fufu~ so you stick your finger in your friend's snatch?}
[....]
"Good friends... with benefits?"
While the two were joking around about my antics, I sent the girls a thank-you message and started planning for the next floor.
"Eternia, can you not change my dungeon floors in future or ask me beforehand? I want to grow and evolve at a pace that doesn't cause me to become overconfident or forget the basics..."
[So you want to face the 5th floor next normally?]
[That mean's you'll fight this floor again once you reach the 10th, you know?]
{Eternia, our boy is so cute he wants to fight from the bottom. Let's honour his desire}
The next floor would have a mini-boss, which was likely far weaker than the one I just fought... My hand poked into the inventory and pulled out the Iron Greatsword—the weight was different from the previous sword.
Yet...
It was light in my hand—it no longer felt like the blade would topple me over, and rather, I felt my skills could now be used properly.
