"And so we gain our first kill and earn some money. So how was, as people say, the thrill of battle girls?" Kazami took everything from the three mercenaries and then froze their corpses in a large ice cube smashing them apart. He left no indications that they even followed them.

The trio gained 200 blue crystal-like stones, which he identified as blue jade crystals and what used for currency. Their nascent weapons and a low-level blue space ring, which they used to store their profits in. The ring was 200 square feet in length and already had all of the blue jade crystals in it.

They acknowledged it as a fitting profit, particularly the blue space ring, which the plump woman kept very hidden on her body, and now he has moved the monster corpse to the space ring while also checking in on the two girls.

"What a thrill it was! Especially seeing their coughing bloody faces when I socked them in the gut. It felt great, hahaha!" Kuzumi actually began to laugh a little bit in the end as her blood was still pumping in excitement.

"For me, I felt as if we should've killed them off more cleanly? But other than that, nothing really." Lun Yuo indifferently explained not feeling that complex after the battle.

"Looks like we're all just natural born killers. Alright! It's cave exploring time." After he finished putting the beast corpse inside the blue space ring, the trio went more in-depth in the cave, and all they could observe was pure pitch-black darkness.

"Seriously, this is where that beast stayed in for all this time? And to add on, it's kind of cold with a foul stench here, can't I light a small flame to see where the hell is anything." Kuzumi was sensing around the cave and found nothing unusual or threatening to them, so she proposed the idea to the others.

Shrugging Kazami nodded and lighting up a single blue fire on her tip, the first thing the trio notice was a dried up green liquid trail they were walking over.

"Green liquid trail? Perhaps this will lead to treasure or our deaths! You two still want to go anyways, right?" Quite excited and a bit wary, Lun Yuo was keen to find whatever that was on end.

"Now you're getting it, but remember we all have to move slowly," Kazami told them, and as they were tentatively walking, a green flash was consistently hitting their faces.

Getting more courageous, they continued right on until they stumble upon a huge cliff that leads to nowhere, but what they saw fully now was a harsh glare of a green shine in the darkness.

"Ugh, is it just me or do you guys also feeling nauseated right now." Holding her stomach, Lun Yuo looked as if she was about to heave.

"Ah, shit yeah I think it's tha-"

'Thud!'

Right, when Kazami was talking, the green shine abruptly approached them at insane speed and dropped right in front of them.

"ACK!"

They all gagged and forced themselves to jump away from this strange green stone. The stone wasn't large and looked like a sickly phantom green eye was in it. It was also producing some peculiar liquid under it.

Although despite the excruciating odor from the stone Lun Yuo and Kuzumi sensed nothing else but that stone. But Kazami sensed something that made him wrinkled his eyebrows.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

Preparing to walk over towards the stone, Kuzumi was about to say something when Kazami had in an immediate sense something and activated his divine powers in full blast, grabbing Kuzumi and Lun Yuo rushing back to where they came.

He even activated his red lightning-ice aura for extra speed but;

'BANG!'

"Argh!"

They slammed into what it felt like a stone wall despite only seeing the darkness in front of them.

Kuzumi and Lun Yuo quickly got up wanting to question what the hell was he doing but got cut off when Kazami said;

"No time! Activate your divine powers, and we fuse NOW!"

Hearing the graveness in his voice, the girls similarly unleashed their divine powers in full blast and quickly lined up with each other.

Then while they were preparing to blast through, they head a terrifying, horrific voiced that disturbed them to their soul.

"Awwww, I just wanted to greet you guys since you killed my little pet. It seems like the God Realms are making some great little boys if you can sense me from so far away..."

That voice was all it took for Kazami to bit his tongue and jolted himself awake and grabbing the girls hand again he forced a rush fusion of their three powers.

'Ka-Cha!'

Like grass breaking, they broke through whatever barrier blocking them and crashed right in front of the cave.

"See you around, hehe..."

The trio struggled to get up, and they all coughed out blood from hastily starting and fusing their divine powers and from breaking through that barrier.

"Just. What. The. Hell. WAS THAT!" Kuzumi screamed while still on her knees, coughing, and feeling sore throughout her whole body.

All of them felt as it death just grazed their necks, and without Kazami rushing or their divine powers, they surely would've died.

"I have no idea what was that thing, but it somehow knew Kazami was from the God Realm and probably knows we hail from there too. I can only take it as a bad omen for this planet." Lun Yuo was desperately attempting to rationalize whatever the hell happens, still feeling a bit of apprehension.

"One thing for sure that monster wasn't the main reason people are probably avoiding this cave. It's whatever that thing was. Well, for now, we're far too weak to even think about that thing we'll rest up and continue to the city to sell this corpse and finish resting up there." Kazami told them and was sitting down, resting, trying to Qi back into order.

At least he tried to until his sister gave him a tight hug.

For both of them, after going through a life or death situation, it felt unusually lovely, and neither wanted to let go of each other. However, Kuzumi had suddenly gained a naughty thought.

"Phew, you essentially saved our life brother with your quick thinking! Yu come on. I rewarded him with a hug now; you have to reward him with a kiss!" Kuzumi had let go of him and was gesturing Lun Yuo to him.

"W-w-w-w-What?! Kiss?! I mean on the lips?! Isn't-isn't-" Lun Yuo was madly blushing and stuttering out from Kuzumi sudden suggestion until Kazami came to her rescue

"Oh Yu, my rascal twin here is just referring to a simple kiss on the cheek. It shouldn't be too hard, right?" Hearing his words, Lun Yuo had steam coming from her head, yet she still walked over to him.

'Chu~.'

A quick and small peck, which felt heavenly to Kazami, was all he got before Lun Yuo rushed outside the cave.

"Can't you two be serious for a second?!?" She complained while sitting down to calm her wildly beating heart.

Shrugging her shoulders, Kuzumi sat down and leaned on Kazami saying, "Sheesh, it's just a small kiss, and she almost fainted from it. See watch this brother." Kuzumi was going to lean in and kiss Kazami on the cheek only to stop as he was looking at with a raised eyebrow.

Suddenly doing such an intimate action inspired weird feelings she wasn't expecting, making her stop dead in her tracks.

"Haah, she right, you know, stop fooling around and rest up already." Kazami lectured her while Kuzumi awkwardly backed away from his face saying,

"Uh, right! Yea, hahaha..."
