Dungeon Stampede 2.0 Tremor

"Good moooorning... sniff sniff... snort!"

Just kidding. Just kidding.

No matter how much of an idiot I am, I wouldn't do something like that in an emergency. It's just that it's my first time in a love hotel, and such thoughts crossed my mind.

In reality, I'm sitting on a sofa, away from the bed where the three of them are sleeping.

Here, I've been spending time with various thoughts and trying to recover my condition by replacing the mucus on my back and waist with something cold like a compress.

.....

"Hmm... What? What's going on...?"

"Good morning, Nina-san. Don't worry, it's okay."

12:30 PM. Finally, Nina-san wakes up.

I've been watching her toss and turn, thinking she might wake up soon. When she did, she seemed puzzled by the unfamiliar room.

"Uh, huh... Still in my suit?"

Nina-san realizes her fingers are covered by her suit as she brings her hand to her face, struggling with her sleepy eyes. Let me get you a wet towel, my lady.

"Hold still..."

"Thank you, Coach..."

As I wipe her eyes with the towel, she obediently lifts her chin. Speaking of which, I wonder if the bun tied at the back of her head for the mask wasn't uncomfortable while she slept.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Yeah. How long did I sleep?"

"Almost a full day. But it's good it was only that long. I was worried you might be out for three days."

"Oh. And everyone else is safe... Thank you for protecting us..."

Nina-san, now understanding the situation, reaches out to me as she looks at the still-sleeping Ruu and Serai-san. I respond with a cheek-to-cheek hug and use my magic to loosen her suit.

"It's safe here, so take a hot shower to wake up."

"Okay, I'll do that."

Nina-san's suit splits open at the back, revealing her glistening naked body as if she were emerging from a cocoon. Her skin is covered in mucus for lubrication, making it truly look like she’s emerging.

"You can stand, right? The dense life energy should affect your stats, so be careful with your strength."

"Thanks... I'll wake up properly now."

"Mmm... mmm...!"

"I'm drowning... I'm drowning!"

After escorting Nina-san to the bathroom and returning, I notice Ruu and Serai-san showing signs of waking up, probably from hearing the conversation.

Ruu is twitching like a small animal, and Serai-san is reaching out as if she's having a drowning dream. I can't let them grab anything weird by mistake.

[[[Rumble rumble rumble...!!!]]]

Suddenly, a roaring noise. Simultaneously, the entire building starts shaking violently.

(What...!?)

I quickly lower my stance to shield Ruu and Seira, still in bed, and realize the noise is from a helicopter.

"Ugh...!"

"What...?"

"Wake up, you two!"

"Coach, what's going on!?"

"Probably a helicopter. It's flying very low, causing the building to shake."

"What should we do!?"

"I'll check outside! Nina-san, sorry but cut the shower short!"

"(Stay back! Our protector will be back soon, and you’ll regret it!)"

"(A guy? He’s not coming back. Right?)"

"(Yeah. So just do as we say.)"

They’re not good Samaritans. They probably saw us escape to the hotel and waited for a chance to strike.

But they don't seem to realize we are dungeon abilities users who defeated the giant black spider. Haven’t they noticed our power?

(Seriously, in such an emergency, these fools...)

Using telekinesis, I unlock the door. It's easy for a dungeon ability user like me. The trick is to target the knob inside the door, not the keyhole.

"Quiet down!"

"Don't touch me!"

[Crunch!]

Entering the room, I see Serai-san chop a man's arm, breaking it.

Yeah, you can't force things with her.

Serai-san has severe mistrust of men due to past issues. Even I, who treat her carefully, sometimes struggle when she's in a bad mood. So forcing her? You get what you deserve.

"You bitch!"

"You did it now!"

Alright, I’ve had enough of your crap moves.

"[Mucus]!"

"""Ugh...!?"""

Enveloping the thugs in mucus, I drag them out and toss them into the hallway.

[[[Thud! Crunch! Splat!]]]

Oops, four at once was too much. The noise suggests some hit the door frame hard.

"Coach!"

"Egetsu-san!"

"Yeah, it’s chaos outside. We need to leave quickly. Get ready!"

"Right!"

Nodding at their response, I drag the thugs to the emergency exit and toss them out.

[[[Thud! Crunch! Splat!]]]

Oh, it’s quite a fall. This is the second floor, I forgot.

"""Growl! Growl!!!"""

[[[Chomp chomp!]]]

And there are monsters below. Didn’t notice. Sorry about that.

Returning to the room, I find the three ready to go.

"There's a fire nearby, so we need to leave quickly."

"What about those guys?"

"I punished them and let them go."

"Okay..."

"Don't worry, they won’t be following us."

"Good..."

I used the mucus to choke them, inflicted bruises, and threw them from the second floor.

What happens next is not my concern.
