Case 154: Guided by a fire heart – The art of explosion.

Ruins.

If the city before was almost dead, then it is now super dead. I don't even see a single building standing anymore.

THUD—!!

''Uh...!''

Sariel in her dragon form lands before us, creating a strong gust of wind that almost blows me away. She then lowers her head to almost ground level, looking at me proudly.

Jesus Christ, she's so big...

''T-That was pretty insane. You did a good job.'' I walk closer and stroke her head a bit.

Woah... My hand doesn't even cover a tenth of one scale, and it's surprisingly warm. I guess she's not a fire dragon for nothing.

''Climb up. I will allow you to ride on my back.''

''Oh, okay.''

Her voice is still the same, how weird.

So I fly the three of us on Sariel's back, and we take to the sky.

''Woah, that's fast.''

The ride is surprisingly stable despite Sariel flying at a very high speed. I think this is double my normal flying speed...

''Hm... I wonder, how large is this world?'' Anna asks, looking around the area. not sure.'' I reply.

I mean, there's probably a border somewhere, right? Like in Minecraft for example. Exploring this world could be fun.

''We just need to defeat the boss to clear the gate, right?'' Liana suddenly speaks up.

''Huh? I think so.''

That's what I read in the general guide.

''What was the point of blowing up those little guys earlier then?''

'''' ... ''''

''Well, at least what Sariel did was cool, right?'' I smile awkwardly and stroke the giant scale that I'm sitting on.

No, really, I want to be able to easily nuke an area like that, too. Would she teach me those things if I became her sex friend...?

''Hyah...!''

Suddenly, Liana pinches my nipple with a mocking expression.

''Leisurely flirting with another woman in front of your fiancés, quite bold, aren't you?'' She says. ''Don't you agree, Anna?''

''Well... I think it's shameless too.'' A gentle smile blooms on Anna's face. ''But I love her like that.''

''A-Anna...!'' I grab Anna's hands tightly,

The soft sensation of her breasts, the alluring scent, the serene whispers of her, all of them make my body shudder. It's like Sariel is wrapping herself around my whole being.

''Tch... Did you seduce women like this in the past?'' I raise my complaint and still do as she says.

''My, I didn't even need to seduce them. They came to me.'' She slides her palm along my raised arm, then gently grabs my wrist. ''You are the first one I make an effort to get.''

''That's an honor.'' I tilt my head to avoid her mouth near my ear. ''Now, teach me properly if you want to fuck me.''

''Fufu, of course.''

By the way, Sariel deployed a giant barrier earlier so the guy below us couldn't even do anything.

''The first thing I will teach you is how to increase the power of your explosion. Try making a basic mana bullet with explosive property first.''

''Alright.''

The basic principle of an explosive mana bullet is the denser and smaller it is, the more powerful it will be.

So I condense the swirl of mana that I've gathered into a little ball, compress it, compress it, and compress it some more...

Done. In front of my palm right now floats a bullet-tip-like piece of compressed mana.

''Good job. But you can do better.'' Sariel comments. ''Let me introduce you to our family's esoteric method—[Heart of Fire]. The details of it I will explain later. For now, I want you to try it first.''

''...?!''

Sariel slides her hand up from my waist to under my left breast, lifting my lump of fat up. From her hand, I can feel a dense and powerful energy flowing to my heart. It's hot, really hot, but it makes me feel more powerful than ever.

''Now, do it again before the fire fades out.''

I narrow my eyes and crank my brain to its maximum capacity, compressing the already tiny bullet tip even more, gradually, slowly, carefully... It goes surprisingly smoothly, if it was before, I would've been struggling right now for sure.

Finally, the bullet reaches the size of an ant.

''Phew...''

''Wonderful for a first try.'' Sariel says. ''As expected, you have talent in this.''

''Thanks.''

Let's try launching it.

PING—!

The tiny bullet rips through the air with a high-pitch noise, swiftly lodging itself into the giant demon's head, and then-

BOOOOM—!!!

''!!?''

An earthshaking explosion erupts from the demon's head, blowing its entire torso and the surrounding rubber away, leaving behind just a pair of sad, lifeless legs.

That... Is at least three times stronger than my usual explosive...

''...Sariel.''

''Hm?''

''You can fuck me however you want on our date.''
