“So, it’s basically like that.” I finished explaining to the girls about the dungeon points. “Any questions?”
They knew about the tattoos. How couldn’t they? They also knew about me coming from another world. However, other than Shao who had seen my memories, I was never exactly clear on my abilities. I decided that given the situation, I would come clean and explain everything clearly.
Celeste raised her hand excitedly. “Oh! Me!”
“Yes?” I said, pointing at her like a student in a class.
“Um… what’s a video game?”
I coughed. “Ah… well, that’s probably not very important right now.”
“What job did you pick Shao?” Lydia asked.
“Geh… I wasn’t brought to this world in that manner. My journey wasn’t so gentle.”
“I know what I’d be. I’d be Deek’s Slave!” Celeste said excitedly.
“That’s not a job, dummy!” Miki shot back.
“Who’s a dummy! You just don’t love Master as I do!”
“You! Being Master’s slave is a given!” Miki flushed angrily. “I’d want my job to be something that can help Master! Like… like…”
“True Pervert.” Terra puts in.
“Right! True per… ah! What are you saying?”
“I could finally keep up with Master at night.” Terra’s eyes gleamed, “Then, none of you will be needed.”
“Geh! She’s trying to get rid of us!” Miki cried. “The rock’s true intent has been revealed!”
Shao suddenly got on her knees in front of Terra. “You’re a wise Master of sex! Disciple did not see!”
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
Terra made a ‘hoho’ noise while holding her fists on her hips like a villain with Shao gazing up at her enviously.
“Ah!” Lydia cried out. “I thought I was the one who taught you about sex!”
“Tfff…” Shao looked away. “You haven’t even become a Pervert, let alone a True Pervert.”
“Neither has she!”
“Yes, but new Master’s eyes are clearly bigger and set to the future compared to old Master! Since her chest is flat, she must always be on the path to ero! Your tits have made you lazy! At the rate Master’s perversions grow, he will need another party member!”
Terra stopped gloating and covered her chest with lines formed on her forehead.
“Ah!” Lydia looked depressed. “I see… I truly was blind, thinking things could remain the same as they’ve always been. Please, Master, teach me the path of the True Pervert!”
She didn’t turn to Terra, but to me, the person who had the Pervert job. Of course, my expression wasn’t much better than Terra at that point.
“Is True Pervert even a job?”
“It has to be, doesn’t it?” Miki offered.
Now that I thought about it, it did sound like a job that would exist. True Dungeon Diver, True Hero, True Pervert. Why did that sound like a tagline! I refused to accept that as my title! I turned back to admonish the girls and put a stop to this, but Shao spoke up.
“Although…” Shao had stood back up after causing all this trouble in the first place and had a serious expression on her face. “It would be nice to go back one day.”
“Really?” I was surprised by her words, given how bad her life had been.
“I don’t care about my own life!” She blushed. “But as for Deek, I’d like to see where he grew up. His mother too… I’d wonder if she’d approve of me.”
“Ah… that…”
All the girls started to make similar sentiments.
“My Mother is a good one. She would surely approve of any one of you.” I made sure to say any one, as I’m almost certain she wouldn’t approve of all of them!
“Then… is there a Dungeon point skill that will allow us to go back to Earth?” Shao asked.
“No…” I shook my head.
“Oh…” The girls looked a little depressed.
Even at the 50-point tier, nothing had appeared like that. I thought maybe there would be a 100-point tier that might appear once I defeated a Great Dungeon, but that was a while off. The only other option was another blessing that happened to include transdimensional travel. If I could open portals to another world, that would be something. There was also Blue Mage, but if there was a spatial spell that strong, it’d probably be level 100. That was obtainable for a guy like me with my bonuses, but not right now.
Noticing the somber mood the girls were in, I decided to speak up. “But… I will try it.”
That seemed to cheer them up. With that, I had added another goal. I would follow a new path, the path of the True Pervert. Ah! I mean, the path of returning home. My mind was somewhere else for a moment.
