Inside the Cave of Obscenity

Chapter Volume 1 26: Overrun

Katsu, katsu?

The pebbles kicked by leather boots rolled and the sound echoed off the walls of the narrow abandoned mine, disappearing into the darkness.

The dusty air in the abandoned mine made it slightly difficult to breathe, and visibility was poor.

Even though the light source generated by magic was illuminated, one could only see a little further.

Dark abandoned mine. It used to be a prosperous area where a large amount of mithril was mined and sold as a material for armor, but after the war with the Demon King ended and the amount of mithril mined decreased, the mine was abandoned and now covered in cobwebs and dust.

In the darkness, there was a figure walking slowly, keeping a watchful eye on its surroundings.

As mentioned before, it was a group of people who had created a light source with mana.

Illuminated by the light source, it was difficult to make out even the smallest details of colors, but most of the people in the group, both men and women, were beautiful, except for one person, whose ears were not long and pointed.

Elves.

People of the forest. Guardians of the green. One who heard the voices of spirits.

There were many names for them, but the most important was that they were the best in using magic in this world.

Amid the elves was a human figure.

At the head of the pack was an elven female knight and a human female knight.

Fiana and Alfira.

Behind them, the male knights followed. The men were all elves.

Each of them was slightly tense, but their expressions were relaxed. The two women, on the other hand, have tense expressions. Their steps were slow, and their hands on the swords hanging at their waists were more strained than necessary.

They were clearly nervous. And more than necessary.

"Almost there."

Fiana, the elven female knight, opened her mouth.

It had been several hours since they entered the abandoned mine. The air was stagnant and the sun was not visible in the abandoned mine, so it was hard to tell exactly how much time had passed, but from the fatigue and the number of steps she had taken, she knew how long and how far she had gone.

It was almost the place where Fiana confronted it in this abandoned mine and was attacked by the slime? Black Ooze.

Recalling that time, Fiana and Alfira were talking less and less.

On the way to this abandoned mine, they had been guided through the mine by Frederica and Satia, two adventurers who were supposedly missing, and had been defeated by the Black Ooze due to their betrayal.

But even though she was nervous, she was not afraid.

This time was different from that time.

Feeling the presence of the elven knights, not just Fiana, she inhaled slightly and exhaled softly, trying not to make a sound.

This time, she had elven knights who were good at magic, and above all, she knew about the existence of the Black Ooze.

It used magic, the mucus had a paralyzing poison, and it mimic the rock walls of abandoned mines.

"Here we are."

Fiana said, and they all stopped, circling on the spot. This was the place where Fiana and Alfira were attacked.

The place was still the same as it was then.

The destruction caused by Fiana's magic was still there, and the soldiers' armor had left there.

There were no bodies.

She didn't want to think about...... She understood that the corpses were eaten by the Black Ooze.

A normal slime would take in its prey and digest it over time. However, their digestive juices were not so powerful that they have trouble digesting clothes, let alone iron armor.

That was why slimes expelled the armors and clothes from their bodies and only take in and digest human corpses.

It would eat its prey it had taken into its body for nourishment...... Fiana explained that the slime they encountered in this abandoned mine was different.

She didn't know how... She could only explain that it was a mutant, but the Black Ooze took in the mass of the assaulted individual as it was, and it seemed to be expanding.

She didn't recognize it when she encountered it here, but at the far end of this abandoned mine...... a place full of mucus that was covering the entire wall. This was the place where it violated Fiana and Alfira, as well as Frederica and Satia, whom it had captured beforehand.

The mass of the slime was covering the entire place. Its presence.

That was not normal. It was not normal.

"But it's only just a slime"

One of the knights, a man wearing light armor and a circlet instead of a helmet, opened his mouth. He was the knight who accompanied Fiana and the other knights, and he was the commander of the operation.

Among the elves who were all beautiful men and women, the beautiful appearance that stood out was like that of a female, but his voice was definitely of a male.

Fiana gets a little annoyed at the sound of his voice.

"Don't underestimate this slime it would catch you off guard."

"It's you, isn't it?"

It was not a tone of mockery. The way he looked at Fiana was not condescending, but rather a matter-of-fact way of asking her to move on. He was just stating the facts.

However, even though he didn't mean to, Fiana and Alfira's gazes turned harsh.

However…….

"Then, please guide us to the deepest part."

He could not say anything more than that.

She had to explain to them that the slime was a being that violated and impregnated women, but there was no way she could explain such a thing to the opposite sex, let alone the same sex.

In the end, she couldn't say anything more and Fiana decided to move on.

Alfira stood next to her, and the knights follow them.

She did not collect the equipment of her subordinates.

Because it would only get in the way.

The knights were well aware of this. The enemy was a slime.

The weakest monster.

Even though they said so, they didn't want to add unnecessary baggage.

Elves were a long-lived race.

The knights in the place had known the threat of the demon king in the past and had experienced battles with monsters. This was why they never let their guard down, no matter how much of a threat they were.

No matter what they said with their mouths, in their hearts, they understood the threat of the monsters.

Fiana continued walking further into the darkness of the abandoned mine.

In the past, Fiana and Alfira were ambushed here. It was a large number of slimes that seemed to have been produced by the Black Ooze.

Fiana and the other knights. They knew that the slimes could use mimicry, so they were wary of their surroundings and read the flow of mana to detect the slime's presence.

However, not a single slime was caught in their detection. That meant that not a single slime was using mimicry.

As a test, Fiana poked at a rock with her sword, which was still in its sheath. But it was a real rock, and the only sound it made was a dry thud in the abandoned mine.

She continued down the abandoned mine, following the same steps they used when escaping from the Black Ooze, and after a while, they arrived at the deepest part of the mine.

In the darkness and along the intricate path, Fiana and the others were sweating on their foreheads and breathing slightly unevenly, even though they had not gone very far.

However, it was not so bad that they could not fight.

As they continued further in, they heard a familiar, eerie, sticky sound that they hoped they would never have to hear again.

As soon as she heard the sound, Alfira drew her sword to look ahead, and Fiana looked warily at the knights who were walking behind her.

The knights also pulled out their own weapons to guard their surroundings at the sight of Fiana's gaze and the strange noises reaching their ears. They were either swords, like Fiana and Alfira, or staffs.

"????"

One of the knights signaled with his hand, and they split into two groups, Fiana and the knight who had been talking to Fiana earlier.

Fiana and the others went on ahead, hiding their bodies behind the rocks and checking the far end of the abandoned mine. Alfira and the male knight stayed where they were to secure their exit.

Fiana and the others were looking at the same Black Ooze that had covered the entire wall at that time.

The authority of the place, illuminated by the sunlight shining through the cracks in the ceiling, was nothing short of sickening.

The muddy mucus rippled, thin sticky mucus dripped from the ceiling, and a strange odor was released in the area that she hadn't noticed earlier because it was covered in dust.

The most disgusting thing was that the mucus was 'alive'.

It was alive, and it was attacking its prey.

In the midst of that prey...... in the middle of a dimly lit sea of mucus, in the sunlight shining through the ceiling, two women were being violated.

Frederica and Satia.

"????"

The knights, who had been checking the deepest area with Fiana, gasped.

It was not because the women in the center of the space were completely naked. No, there may be some of that too...... but it was because the two of them were pleasuring themselves while being violated by the slime.

Their faces loosened up in pleasure, and they swayed their hips and let out charming noises as tentacles stretched from the surrounding mucus walls pierced their secret places.

From the sound of their voices, she could tell that they were nearing their limits.

Fatigue, malnutrition, and the mental distress of being trapped in an enclosed space.

For a variety of reasons, the two of them illuminated by the sunlight seemed pale enough that they looked bad even from a distance, and their physical reactions seemed weaker than when they were violated by the Black Ooze before.

"Let's go"

"Yes"

The knight beside her nodded at Fiana's words. The other knights nodded silently in agreement and responded.

She looked at Alfira and the others, who were guarding the path of their retreat.

She nodded silently, saying that it was okay at any time.

From there, her actions were worthy of being called God's speed.

As Fiana jumped out from behind a rock, tentacles extended from the surrounding walls with such speed that it was as though it had noticed her presence.

In an instant, the number of tentacles exceeded ten, then twenty, until it covered the entire field of her vision. It was also the second time Fiana had stepped into the innermost space.

However, before the tentacles could reach Fiana, a pale barrier was created in front of her. Illuminated by the sunlight leaking from the ceiling, white smoke from the pale barrier, a freezing air leaked out.

When the countless tentacles touched the barrier, it froze from the moment they touch it, then broke under its own weight and fell to the ground. However, the ground was also covered in mucus, but the knights didn't question what it was as they already understood.

Fiana froze every single tentacle that came towards her, and if attacking the front didn't work, it changed the direction of its attack to the side or back, but she also froze those tentacles to neutralize them.

Meanwhile, the tentacles stretched out to attack the other knights but they also froze it by using their magic, and the mucus covering the ground also slowly froze.

At first, it was the entrance to the deepest part, and from there, the area gradually expanded, and by the time Fiana froze over a hundred mucus tentacles, even part of the ceiling was frozen around the entrance.

This was the plan that Fiana had before entering the abandoned mine.

The usual way to kill slime was to burn it, but the mass of this slime was extraordinary. The plan was to freeze every last bit of it and then burn the entire abandoned mine to the ground.

It was a wild idea that could not even be called a strategy, and some of the knights, except for Alfira, wondered if it was necessary to go that far against the slime.

However, once they saw the deepest part, they could understand Fiana's nervousness and worry.

They couldn't believe that this thing was hiding out here. ??Fonteau, the land of the elves. If the slime was this large that it could cover a place that was larger than the Throne Room, the largest area in the royal castle.

Yes, they understood.

The five elf knights did their best to lower the temperature of the area. If this were outside the abandoned mine, the air would be cold, their breath would turn white, and the moisture in the air would have frozen.

The temperature of the place was lowered to such an extent that the Black Ooze was frozen at once.

At that stage, Frederica and Satia, who were being violated in the center of the place, were finally lowered to the ground?? the floor of mucus was frozen by the cold air.

The movement was gentle, it was trying not to hurt the mother, but Fiana did not notice.

She walked up to them, covering herself with a barrier of cold air.

She still didn't know if these two were the Black Ooze's companions, but she did know that they betrayed Fiana and Alfira.

After confirming that the two fallen women were still alive, she took off her jacket and covered it over the two naked women as a gesture of mercy.

She then picked them up in her slender arms and left the scene.

It was freezing. The stagnant black slime turned white.

The tentacles extending from the wall were reducing, and when they tried to escape through the gap in the ceiling, they blocked the exit.

The tentacles were frozen from the moment they move. The sunlight was blocked and the space was closed to darkness. She immediately used her magic to create a new light source, and a moment later, a tentacle from the stagnant mucus, even darker than the darkness, extended.

Even the surprise attack froze without reaching anyone.

It was not just Fiana who fought and struggled in the war before. There were five knights comparable to Fiana who were here.

In addition, if they were not careless, the current Black Ooze had no chance of winning. It could not even put up any kind of resistance.

In the blink of an eye, it froze, and finally, the entire area was completely frozen. The abandoned mine was surrounded by silence.

......It was too quick.

Fiana, holding Frederica and Satia, thought.

She wondered if it was this weak.

It violated women, absorbed their mana, and used magic. In the end, it was only just a slime.

However, she wondered if it was only just a slime...... They were taken by surprise, defeated, trapped, and violated, and she had developed a sense of dislike for it.

The battle was over, it was so easy than she had expected. It was now over.

Fiana, who was in a daze, was touched on her shoulder.

When she turned around, she saw one of the knights standing there. He was the male knight who had told Fiana and Alfira on the way that they were being too cautious.

"That is all the slime could do."

“…………”

That was probably the truth.

However, it was too bland. It was stupefying... That was what she thought.

When she looked at Alfira, she too was stunned by the sheer stupidity of the situation.

"Let us take care of them. Even though we are raising our strength with mana, isn't it heavy?"

She was told to hand Frederica, who was wrapped in Fiana's jacket, to the male knight. She borrowed the cloak to wrap Satia's naked body and handed her to another male knight.

She was unconscious, but she was breathing. She was alive.

She's just passed out from extreme exhaustion...... or had she lost consciousness due to repeated climaxes?

There was no choice but to check after they wake up. And also, they may be pregnant.

Fiana thought that she would have to check if there were any other slimes in the area, and turned her gaze once more to the area.

"Then, as planned, we will completely seal off this place."

At the same time, the ground shook slightly.

It was not an earthquake. It was Fiana's magic that caused the place to collapse. There was no visible change, supported by the frozen Black Ooze, but the area around it collapsed, completely blocking any escape route.

The only thing that was safe was the path that Fiana and the others had just taken.

The abandoned mithril mine had completely collapsed and would never be used again. Even so, this slime was an enemy that had to be completely purified.

"Then I'll burn it."

"Yes"

The knights who were holding Frederica and Satia stepped back. At the same time, the place that had been cooled to the point that the mucus froze, was now enveloped in heat so hot that sweat broke out in their bodies.

In a flash, the ice melted and the Black Ooze resumed its movements.

Countless mucus tentacles formed, but this time, they evaporated faster than they could reach Fiana and the others.

The strange smell increased. It was the Black Ooze's scent, it was so dizzying due to it being burned and vaporized by the heat.

A dazzling mass of glowing flames was created in the center of the space, and the space was filled with enough heat to vaporize the mucus?? that was the end.

"????"

There was only one way out. By breaking the ceiling where she was standing.

A stationary fireball shining like the sun and the remnants of the Black Ooze were left behind in the enclosed place.

"Let's go back"

Quickly, Fiana and the others left the abandoned Mithril mine.

A short time after Fiana and the others left the abandoned mine, there was an explosion that partially changed the topography of the mountain. Black smoke stretched to the sky, distorting the white clouds and hiding the blue sky.

The carriage's wheels made a dry sound as it moved forward, the back of the carriage occasionally shaking because the wheels stepped on pebbles.

The sky seen from the carriage window was cloudy. It was a cloudy sky.

The sky was covered with gray clouds, but it didn't smell damp.

There was no sign of rain, but cloudy skies were a sign of bad luck in this world and were not considered a good thing.

The elven female knight "Fiana", who was sitting on the loading platform and looking up at the sky while the carriage was shaking, also sighed at the ominous sign that was said to be a natural order of this world.

As an elf who used to make a living by hunting in the forest, she had good eyesight and could see farther than humans could. She could already see the outer walls of the elven country of Fonteau.

She was finally back home.

She thought as she played with her fingers through her silver hair, which swayed in time with the rocking of the carriage. Without realizing it, she let out another sigh.

She was out of it.

She was finally able to come back after all that trouble. She breathed out a sigh of relief and sighed at herself for spacing out.

"Is everything all right?"

"Yes, It's fine."

She asked the knight sitting on the podium, and a crisp, clear voice came back to her. It was a young man's voice.

The knight, who was also an elf just like Fiana, could probably already see the outer wall surrounding the royal city of Fonteau. He was much more energetic than the other day, Fiana thought.

It would be so.

The subjugation of slime.

Even though it had the characteristic of violating and impregnating women, it was still the lowest and weakest monster. They had been away from the capital for more than ten days in order to subjugate it.

During the trip, they could not take a bath, and eating or drinking water was restricted.

Even though some preferred to go on a journey... Not many people tried to leave the royal capital.

Thinking about it, she looked at the people sitting in the back of the carriage.

There were two people on the coachman's seat that she just looked at, and six on the back of the carriage. The same age as Fiana... As an elf, she had lived for nearly a hundred years, but she still looked like she was in her mid-twenties, she even looked younger with her short stature and young face. There were two women who were not much older than Fiana, who looked to be in their mid-twenties. The first was Alfira, a purple-haired woman wearing knight armor.

And the other was Frederica, a former adventurer with dirty, murky blonde hair.

Finally, there was Satia, the smallest of the group, with silver hair and brown skin.

In addition, there were two male knights dressed in armor like Fiana and Alfira.

Frederica and Satia have iron shackles on their hands and weights on one leg to prevent them from escaping. They were dressed in fine clothes, but only just jackets. It was Fiana's clothes.

The two of them looked like criminals because of the iron shackles, but they had not actually committed any crime.

Fiana and the others were on a mission: to defeat the mutant slime...... the Black Ooze that had appeared at the deepest part of the abandoned mine. These were the women who were trapped by the slime that they protected during their mission to defeat it.

Even though they were held captive, they actually had a chance to escape, and Fiana and Alfira, who were once captured by the Black Ooze, knew what the Black Ooze was doing to them.

And they have experienced the act firsthand. Above all, these women betrayed them once. They deceived them.

She thought that they deserved what they were getting, and she was sure they would get what they deserve more...... but as a woman, she couldn't help but feel the same way.

"Frederica-san?"

She called out her name.

She already called out to her many times after leaving the abandoned mine.

She was in a state of exhaustion, or should she say collapse. Her face was pale and her eyes showed no light.

Even when she called her name, she didn't seem to respond, only occasionally turning her head to her. Even when she left her alone with Satia, who was also the same as her, she didn't talk to her or even showed any signs of trying to escape.

The two of them were like empty shells, different from when she first met them.

In particular, Satia, Fiana remembered calling the Black Ooze "Master" and "Master Alfred".

It was a man's name. The word "Master" and Satia's skin color...... brown skin was rare in the land of the elves. It was a common skin color found in slaves.

Alfred, Fiana thought, was probably the name of the adventurer who had purchased Satia. And then he was preyed upon by that Black Ooze.

From that point on, Satia might have been broken. She thought that the Black Ooze, who ate her master, was her master, and she was trying to serve him.

With that in mind, she averted her gaze from Satia, who remained silent in the back of the carriage.

Still, that thing was a monster. She couldn't leave it alive, and she couldn't leave Satia with that thing.

As she muttered in her mind that she had no choice but to do what she did, then the carriage passed several travelers.

The royal capital of Fonteau was getting closer, and the number of travelers seemed to be increasing.

The largest and most prosperous city in the land of the elves. The royal capital.

There were many things to think about, but the problem had been solved. She thought about that and forced herself to think positively. Even though she thought about it too hard, there was nothing she could do right now.

The best she could do was to take care of the lifeless Frederica and Satia. She couldn't just leave them to the male knights.

Before she returned to the capital before, she bathed in the river they found on the way, took care of their meals, and stayed with Alfira until they fell asleep.

Although they have not yet arrived safely at the royal capital, her heart was still relieved.

The same goes for Alfira.

Her expression was still tense, but sometimes she was spacing out just like Fiana.

The same was true for the other knights.

It was a triumphant return after subjugating the monster. The people living in the capital were not informed of the details, so they would not be praised by anyone, but they still return to the capital with the medal of having defeated another threat to the world in their hearts.

She didn't become a knight to be praised or respected.

What they were riding in, was a carriage used when the threat of the Demon King was still looming. A threat to the world. She became a knight in order to defeat the monsters.

And so, the carriage moved forward in silence.

The sound of the carriage's wheels rolling, pebbles flying, people talking on the road and the slight breathing of the people on the back of the carriage.

Time passed by as she felt these things, and they arrived at the royal capital.

It was so big that she had to look up at the thick iron doors on the outer walls, which had been built to guard against monsters.

Originally, Fonteau, the royal capital of the elves, was a simple structure surrounded by a wooden fence.

It was the husband of Leticia, the current queen of Fonteau, who changed that. He was a hero, a savior summoned from another world.

After subduing the monsters, he complained about the construction of Fonteau and used the backing of Queen Leticia to persuade the ministers to rebuild the royal city.

Originally, the country's population had been decimated by the Demon King and his monsters, and it had become lifeless and in need of work.

They found hope in the great project of rebuilding the royal capital, got jobs, and were eager to create a lively "new country" with their own hands.

The people of the country, who had been apathetic, regained their vitality and began to think and act on their own in the middle of rebuilding the royal capital.

He cultivated the fields that had been devastated by monsters, built a village on it, started a family, and had children.

The hero married the queen, and Fonteau was transformed into a new country, both in name and reality.

It was not just a land of elves.

The land of elves and humans. The land of saviors. The land of heroes.

At the root of it all was the effort of everyone who lived in this country. Even though the hero's words were what started it all, it was the efforts of the elves and humans living in this country that rebuilt the royal capital.

??They wondered if the hero had thought that far.

With that in mind, the ministers who lived in this country sometimes even felt frightened.

Perhaps the hero was a genius at manipulating people.

Even those people who felt that they should not rely on humans may have been manipulated to build a country for people and elves to live together.

These were the confessions that she heard from time to time in the temple built in the royal castle.

That was the royal capital. A royal capital created by the hero.

The entrance to the city, a thick iron door, was opened during the day and closed at night.

The demon king was gone, and the number of monsters had decreased, but they have not been completely eradicated yet.

It was opened during the daytime, and travelers on the roads and merchants traveling in carriages like Fiana and the others were smiling as they made their way to the royal capital.

To pass through, one would need a pass issued by the administration of the royal capital, but it was not that difficult to obtain.

One must provide proof of identity, the adventurer's guilds and nobles in the outlying villages as well as the royal capital would issue them.

In a world where monsters were becoming fewer and fewer, the new job of the knights was to arrest those who abuse the system.

Capturing the bad guys.

The world was changing little by little.

The world that used to be terrified of the Demon King and his monsters was now a world where people judge those who did evil.

A carriage passed through the gate into the royal city.

After a while, the horse pulling the carriage stopped in its tracks.

The guard in the gate stopped the horse to check the luggage. The voice of the guard could even be heard at the back of the carriage.

The soldier who was about to check the luggage on the back of the carriage looked surprised when he saw Fiana and the knights. Then, he saluted with a panicked gesture.

"Thank you for your hard work."

The faces of Fiana and some of the knights were well known even to ordinary soldiers.

Fiana in particular, with her good looks and ample breasts that didn't match her small frame, was often regarded with a sense of faith among the soldiers.

This soldier seemed to be one of them, someone Fiana knew. He was nervous, and his hands were shaking as he saluted. His expression and his mouth were tense.

Fiana smiled at the soldier to relieve his tension.

However, it seemed to have the opposite effect, and the soldier, more nervous than before, left the place with his mouth twitching.

Another soldier who was with her said, "No problem," and they let them pass.

The back of the carriage shook slightly and it began to move forward again.

Fiana looked at Frederica and Satia for no apparent reason. Alfira, who got off the coachman's seat, sat next to Fiana and looked at Frederica and Satia.

They would take them to the royal castle and examine them in the infirmary and probably discuss what would happen to them.

They were violated by a monster...... and were probably carrying the monster's child.

What would happen to these two women... Even Fiana didn't know. Would they be released after cleansing their womb, or would they be imprisoned?

Whatever the process, Frederica and Satia once tricked Fiana and Alfira...... killing the knights who went with them to that abandoned mine.

It was their intention to do so.

"It's finally over, isn't it?"

"Yes"

Subjugating of monsters. Fiana thought that even though she had killed countless monsters in the past, but this was the hardest for her.

It violated women. A monster that could impregnate.

It was a new breed of monster that was born because the demon King was not around, she thought.

A new species of monster that had mutated in order to avoid being destroyed. A new species. A new existence.

There might be similar monsters that would be born in the future and she shuddered while thinking about that. As a knight who protected the country, and as a woman.

With that in mind, she wondered if the carriage had reached the middle of the street, halfway to the gates of the royal capital and the royal castle of Fonteau.

The street was lined with many stalls, restaurants, armor shops, and inns. The street was overflowing with people living in the capital and was difficult for carriages to navigate during the daytime hours.

The horses pulling the carriages naturally slowed down and gradually changed to a slower speed...... At that time, Satia, who had not responded to any of her calls, shivered slightly.

Her shoulders trembled and her gaze went to the window.

"What's wrong?"

Alfira walked up to her and called out to Satia.

Fiana looked once at Frederica to check her reaction, but there was no visible change in her.

She then looked out the window of the carriage, just like Satia.

The street of the royal capital was crowded with people. It was a familiar scene, but...

(...There are many knights?)

She noticed that the knight's appearance was suspicious to be moving around, mixed with the soldiers who usually patrol for crime prevention.

Fiana, who felt disturbed by Satia's reaction, called out to the male knight sitting on the coachman's seat to stop the carriage.

The horses stopped.

Then Frederica also shook her shoulders. It was not a reaction to the carriage that had stopped.

"Satia-san !?"

Alfira's voice.

The other knights' eyes turned to her.

Satia was holding her abdomen in agony, breathing hard, and sweating profusely like a waterfall. Fiana hurriedly approached her and put her hand on her forehead.

"She doesn't have a fever."
