Chapter 870 869: Terracotta Grottos (23)

??"Here! Got these done in a jiffy compared to how long I thought it'd take! Honestly kinda surprised at how workable Wurm Leather was..."

Anput pressed two bracers into my arms, making me blink at how suddenly she had given them to me, only for Leone to mimic me as a pair of bracers were pressed into her arms as well, forced to accept a gift that she had no idea she was getting.

"Well, and I was going to work on making you both a cuirass each again, but uh..."

The Jackalkin stared pointedly at our chests, her lips curling into a childish grin as she reached forwards and made a grabbing motion with her hands, causing Leone to blush and making me roll my eyes as I slipped off the old bracers and put on the new ones, giving them a try.

"Don't act like you don't have our sizes committed to memory, Anput... I know you do, especially after the first cuirass you made for both of us. You spent a long, long time getting our measurements that night, and I KNOW those sizes are right inside here, even if there isn't much else..."

Her childish smile turned wry as she shrugged her shoulders, ignoring how I was tapping the side of her head to emphasize my point, only for me to give her a dry stare as she reached forwards and grabbed my breasts in retaliation, shifting her smile once more to be innocent as both her hands sank into my chest.

Giving them a good squeeze, the Jackalkin enjoyed herself for a few moments before releasing me - only after she took it too far by seeking out the twin buds that capped my breasts, causing me to glare at her - and taking a step back.

"Yeah, seems like I can remember now! Funny how that works! Maybe I should get back to work, hm~? Yeah, sounds-!"

"Uh-uh. Nope, you're heading out with us Anput! Who would tell us what metals are worth a damn and which ones to avoid, or who would order us to go hunt some random monster for its skin, hm?"

Smiling at her, I looked into the obsidian eyes of the Jackalkin and enjoyed the way she pursed her lips, before she eventually sighed and shook her head, muttering "So helpless without me, the lot of you... Fine, fine, I'll head out with you~! No need to pull my leg..."

Grabbing my waist, Anput smiled at me and pulled me close, making me raise a brow at her sudden suave moves of my mate, which was only ruined as she whispered "But you could pull on something else instead baby~!"

I rolled my eyes at her actions, only for us both to smile as a third joined us, the large hands that went low making us both jump before we grinned as the deep, husky voice of the Demoness sounded out as she said "Or, conversely, you both could be pulling on mine tonight again instead~?"

"Okay come on! Why are you ALWAYS flirting whenever I look your way?!"

Jahi looked over towards the angry Demoness behind us, smirking as she remained where she was, while Anput and I only snuggled closer to her chest and turned to stare at Satanya as well, flashing triumphant smirks at the woman as we made our claim known.

"Perhaps because we have a really~ healthy, physical relationship together, and I LOVE reminding them about it whenever and however I can~? Oh, and it's also really~ fun to tease you like this, especially after everything that happened on the way here~!"

"I..! Argh! Come on, let's just get a fucking move on, yeah?!"

Satanya let out a huff and stomped away, causing us all to chuckle as we indulged in some more physical intimacy for a couple of needed moments before separating and grabbing our gear and joining the Demons to head out into the Dungeon once more.

Specifically, we were heading over to the grotto that they had discovered earlier, which was on the opposite side of the Dungeon compared to the expected location of the Nua Fiend.

With Cali remaining as our radar, we set off into the Dungeon once more, and we marched in silence as we kept our guards up, preparing to head into what they had described as a rather active and dangerous collective of monsters.

As we moved from one grotto to another, the branching tunnels that were coated in vines, greenery, and made from stone blended together as one grotto looked similar to the others, something that was both able to get us confused but also appreciated since the natural beauty of this Dungeon just kept on providing scenic battlefields for us.

Fields of grass dotted with stalagmites, the occasional river or lake to change things up, and the copses of trees that provided shelter all blended together in each and every grotto we had seen so far, and the resources just continued to make themselves known as we traveled deeper into the Dungeon.

Entering the Dungeon they had scouted earlier, I nodded to myself at just how many monsters were roaming around, snarling and grunting at one another as they grazed and drank beside one another, most of them traveling in herds as they sought safety in numbers, which prevented the few entirely carnivorous monsters that were inside the grotto from easily hunting them whenever they pleased.

Bovines, deer, bison, antelope and so many more herbivore animals had been monsterified inside the Dungeon, and they all lingered together as they grazed on the abundant grasses and drank from the crystal lakes, keeping themselves together so that the wolves, bears and other monsters couldn't pick them off at random and turn them into a meal.

There were easily hundreds of monsters around, and as we stepped out onto the giant field of grass and shrubbery, they all looked up and over towards us, sensing the arrival not through sight nor sound, but instead through mana as Ammit erected a barrier, blocking a spiraling, twisting root from impaling one of the Demons the moment we entered.

And just like that, we brandished our weapons and settled into a defensive position, watching as monsters began to stream towards us rapidly.
